"Lexx?" Chel managed to slide off of Lexx and sat down next to him.
"I'm fine," grumbled Lexx. He had a lot more trouble with his wings. One of them was stinging slightly and moving made it hurt worse. Finally, Lexx ended up in a seated position. "My wing got hit, but that's it." He looked at Chel curiously. Her face was paler than usual. "Who were they?"
"I'm not sure." Chel said. She winced as a sharp pain caught her in the shoulder. She hoped she had not torn the stitches. There wasn't any blood, so maybe it was just the painkillers wearing off. "But I think it would be better that we don't do that again. It's too dangerous. If anyone sees you-" Chel trailed off; thoughts of Lexx being mistreated at the hands of scientists were quickly running out of control.
