Pointing Fingers

( Ben's POV, present moment )

Ben felt his vision become blurry and his consciousness fading fast, as although he had already vomited the poison he had consumed, a small amount of poison seemed to have already been absorbed into his bloodstream.

*Thud*

For some inexplicable reason, Ben felt his body falling flat on the floor, as he felt something light being over his back.

'What?' Ben wondered, his survival instincts screaming, however, with his vision blurry and every other sense dulled, he could not figure out what exactly was going on in his surroundings.

"My Lord…. My Lord, are you okay?" screamed a Virex Corps operative, as it was Julien who seemed to have collapsed over Ben, causing him to lose his balance.

Just like Ben, although Julien had also vomited the poison, a small amount seemed to have already been absorbed into his bloodstream, causing him to lose all senses and collapse like a helpless doll.
