Kai nodded in agreement. But why would this doctor be trying to sedate him? Why would she want samples from him?<br/><br/>"I can try," she said after a moment.<br/><br/>Warren? she called out through the bond. Warren, please talk to me.<br/><br/>She glanced at Karren. "I can't reach him. He's...he's not pushing me out of his mind, but...it's like he's trying so hard to block out the pain, to fight it that...that he's blocking everything else, including me..."<br/><br/>But just because Warren had blocked her out (not on purpose), didn't mean that he had blocked the pain from the bond. Kai felt every prick of the needles, she felt it all. So it was no shock when she felt like her veins had been set on fire. She just hadn't expected it to be so sudden, so intense. It was such a shock to her system, like it was happening to her, that she tripped over her own feet and fell to the snow as her human half cried out in their mind.
