[CLOSED] a song about marilyn monroe.

"I don't know the answers, Xander.. I don't.. I don't know of any hidden pictures or affairs or politics. I don't watch the news.." She clung to his hand, terrified to let it go. She didn't want him to leave either. The guy who Marc had dubbed the snowman because of his white scrubs went over to Aubri and started to fix her blanket. She screamed, arching her back.

"NO! STOP! PLEASE! It hurts.." She cried, and he patted her arm, taking off her blindfold. She looked up at Xander. "I have never been so happy to see you in all my life.." She mumbled.

"That's why we have doctors." The guy behind Marc said sarcastically, and Marc threw his head back, hitting the guy in the nose. He let go of Marc to grab his face.

"Fucking prick." He spat, kneeing him in the crotch. He doubled over and Marc kicked him as hard as he could in the stomach. He was grabbed by another guy, and thrown to the floor. "Ow.." He groaned, his vision swimming. "Fuck you.."

Xander huffed, had a feeling he knew why they were questioning her. But of course she didn't know the answers, she wasn't who they actually wanted. He winced when she cried out, frowning a bit, and sighed as her blindfold was removed, smiled just slightly at her words. "It's gonna be okay, alright? I'm not going anywhere..." He glanced at the others. "why can't you just get that she doesn't know? You fucking made her bleed." He gritted his teeth.

Sean sneered in annoyance. "Yeah, so? Doctors are fucking-"
Marc had snapped his head back, and Sean watched with amusement the scene unfolding before him. Until Marcus was on the ground at least.

He yanked his arms free, hauling him up and moving towards where they had Trez. "We'll stay the fuck in here away from you, thank you," He spat, shouldering a guy away, pissed.

[aubri 'bee' ella-paige reed]

"She knows the answers." He said, watching the other two walk in. Aubri looked over at them, smiling. She squeezed Xander's hand, looking back up at him.

"What did I miss?" She asked, watching him carefully. He was the first person she had seen in a long time, and she didn't want him to go. She moved again, the dried blood on her back and legs starting to bother her. "I just wanna go home.." She mumbled, looking around the bright room. "I wanna shower and go to sleep.. They won't let me sleep.. They keep coming and poking me with needles. I don't wanna stay.. What did I do wrong?" She asked, looking up at him again.

[alexander 'xan' manuel steele]

"Obviously not," Xander growled. He gazed down at her gently. "Not much.." He murmured. When she continued to explain, he huffed, growing angry with the idea of what they were doing to her. "You didn't do anything wrong, Bee. It's okay, they're just stupid." He played gently with her hand, glancing towards the others as well.

"Why can't you just let her go? Maybe if you'd done this more civily she actually would have had time to give you fucking answers. This is inhumane," He spat.

[aubri 'bee' ella-paige reed]

"She tried to bite the doctor." He said calmly.

"HE TRIED TO TAKE OFF MY SHIRT!" She screamed. "You're all perverts! Maybe I don't want to wear your creepy white gowns so you can see my ass!"

"And if she dies, we'll never get answers. We need her to tell us what she knows. And she keeps fighting us."

"I want to go home!" She cried.

"You don't have a home." He said, walking back to his desk. She squeezed Xander's hand tighter, tears falling down her cheeks. 'I can't help it my family was killed..' She thought.

"I don't know where they are.. There was a guy and a party and he took the picture even though you guys told him not to and you took the pictures. I don't know what you did with them.." She mumbled, trying to remember if she had any other dreams abut things they were asking.

"One's missing. Where's it at?" He asked, tapping his pen on the desk.

"I don't know! Who do you think I am? I'm a scared girl tied to a TABLE. I'm not some psychic!"

[alexander 'xan' manuel steele]

Xander smirked faintly at the first explanation, thinking he deserved it. He held her hand tightly, heard Sean get up quickly and watched him move for Trez out of the corner of his eye. He chewed on his lip.

Without warning, he reached over and undid her restraints, glaring at them. "Just relax," He murmured to her softly. "Don't try and do anything okay? I'm gonna figure this out.." He didn't let go of her hand. "Why the fuck is she bleeding?"

[aubri 'bee' ella-paige reed]

She sat up slowly, looking over at Trez. She was afraid he was going to have another seizure. She wrapped her arms around Xander, hugging him tightly.

"They tried to do a cavity search and she kept fighting them. They gave her an x-ray and she had a tear in her stomach. They went and fixed it and she started thrashing and tore her stitches out. She kept bleeding, so they couldn't stitch it." He said, leaning back in her chair.

She glared at him, wrapping her arms tighter around Xander. She laid her head on his chest, biting her lip.

[alexander 'xan' manuel steele]

Xander growled in agitation, hugging her close without a care about the blood. "Can you just give her time to think? Please? You can keep an eye on us, make sure she doesn't run or something, I don't care.. Just lemme take her home and clean her up...maybe she'll remember more if she thinks about it without so much stress. Please.." He didn't think begging would do much good, but he was running out of options. Sean and Marc were pissed, Trez stressed. They all just needed to go and calm down. And having Bee at least back even if they had to be watched would still help.

[aubri 'bee' ella-paige reed]

Aubri clung to him, not wanting to let go. She couldn't reach the other three to cling to them. She rubbed her eye, then started to try to wipe the blood from her legs.

"She isn't allowed to leave until she remembers." He said flatly, and she glared at him. "Don't look at me like that. I know everything about you. I don't think he would be too fond of you after he hears everything you do."

"You wouldn't dare! He hasn't done a thing to you!" She exclaimed, turning pale.

"No, but you have. Why wouldn't I tell him all your dirty little secrets?"

She hugged her knees to her chest, shaking her head. "I wanna go.."

[alexander 'xan' manuel steele]

Xander hesitated at that, frowning a bit. He shouldn't be surprised she had secrets, though. SHe barely knew him. "Maybe she won't remember with you keeping her locked up, maybe she needs to be out and about, huh? Idiot." The last part was under his breath. He wasn't one for a lot of bad language or anger, but when he was pissed, he was pissed.

He looked towards Sean, who had Trez's head in his lap, running fingers soothingly through his hair.

Working his jaw quietly, he drew in a breath, thinking he honestly probably didn't need it, but it came naturally. He didn't want to be dead, immortal, hated the idea in all honesty.
