Gabriel was talking to Brandy and he found that EPUAs dungeon has been attack. Veronica is in chase of Francis...o...b..t for him it doesn"t matter at that time. What matter was their safety. Gabriel waits for the update and Tequila calls him. Its time for Gabriel to step into action.
He called his men to start investigating in EPUA while it"s still fresh. He got a call from Samantha that Veronica came there with a vial. She doesn"t look good at all. And just in few moments, he heard a car outside. Veronica was staggering a little as she strode toward the bed.
"Veronica." Gabriel took her and hold her so that she won"t fall.
"Sabrina!" She said aloud. She look pale.
"What happened to you?" Gabriel asked.
"Sabrina!" Veronica scream. "You have to f.u.c.king wake up! I have Francisco. I had him tortured. But he got away. I failed you." It was the first time that Veronica cried. "I had Francis...o...b..t you never woke up. It was almost done… you never wake up. How long do you want us to suffer?"
Tony has the doc.u.ments that he"s going to deliver to Gabriel but what he found was Veronica coming out from the car staggering. Then he heard her screaming. Tony listen to Veronica and he put the papers on the table as Veronica took Sabrina"s hand.
"I only have thirty days left. You have to wake up. Get him back. Kill him and Glenn."
Gabriel let Veronica talk to his wife until she"s done crying and stood. She"s wearing EPUA"s A Special suit. Tony step closer to comfort Veronica but she fainted and he caught her.
"Veronica." Tony panics. "Veronica." He tap her pale face. "Why? Why are you pale?" He wake her up. He hold her neck to feel her pulse and it wasn"t normal at all. He hug her.
"She needs to get to the hospital right now." He call his men.
"Veronica… baby. Wake up please." Tony"s heart was breaking. Veronica look lifeless. Then he thought of her words. She only have thirty days left?
"Tony. Get her to the hospital now." Gabriel said. Tony carried her. She was weightless. How did she suddenly loose weight?
Gabriel was pacing back and forth while looking at his wife. He failed her too.
"Sabrina." He calls her name. "How long are you going to keep doing this?" He move closer and touch her face. "You are torturing us." He caress her hair. "I don"t care how long it will take for me to take care of you. But they need you as much as I need you. Our baby need you to get up and move, feel the gra.s.s and inhale the fresh air…" He kiss her forehead. "That"s enough sleep, Sabrina. Veronica needs you."

Veronica was sent to ER the one that Tony and Gabriel are currently building. A hospital that connects to their research facility. The doctor checked her and said nothing was wrong at the moment. But they have to get her blood and urine sample. Tequila came there and face Tony.
"Something was injected into her." He said. "I need your permission to get her blood sample. She deliver a vial to Sam a while ago." "Whatever it is she need…" He sai. Samantha came up shortly and tell the doctors that she"s her doctor. Then she draw her blood.
Soon, Tony was left with Veronica inside the private room. Tony was pacing back and forth and didn"t know what to do. The doctors couldn"t find what"s wrong with her and suddenly Sam and Albert appear telling him that something was injected to her. He hasn"t been taking care of her well.
"Hey. Why do you look so frustrated?" A hoa.r.s.e voice said. Then he turn to Veronica. He immediately move closer to her and scoop her face.
"How do you feel?"
"Thirsty." He grab a gla.s.s and pour water then took the straw. He adjust her bed so she"s in a sitting position and help her drink. She sigh in relief. Tony put the gla.s.s away and hold her hand. "Tony, do you think it"s time to break up?"
"What are you talking about?" His heart suddenly races up, nervous that she would break up with him.
"Tony, I can"t lie about my situation. We will have to let go of each other."
"Shh, that"s not gonna happen." He scoop her face and kisses her nose. "I promised you that I will only marry you. So be strong okay?"
The doctor enters the room and gave him the findings. It was a rare disease they say. Now, what he needed was Samantha and her team to check her. He will find a cure for this. He can"t let Veronica die. Then the person who did this to her should suffer ten folds.
Tony knows how to read the doc.u.ments so he didn"t say anything at all. It affects her blood stream. He has to find a way to remove the thing that was injected to her. He nod to the doctor and walk to her. He caress her hair.
"Don"t worry, we are going to make a cure."
Veronica didn"t say anything at all. Tony is saying that to comfort both of them. She knows that if it had taken Sam a very long time to find a cure for Catriona—then this thing that"s inside her body isn"t going to let her pa.s.s.
He feed her with nutritious food. Tony even call Loren but Loren said that he has to meet with someone first. Then when Veronica fall asleep, Whiskey came. He didn"t know him but he looks familiar. He said he"s an Special Agent and Veronica"s friend. Then another man came Brandy. They gave their real names to Tony and Tony nods and let them in.
Veronica open her eyes and she adjust her bed.
"You found them?" She asked.
"Sorry, V." Whiskey said as he lower his head. "Gabriel took over EPUA. In few seconds almost all of EPUA was wiped out."
"Good. We failed Sabrina now it"s time to remove those who betray EPUA."
Tony was just by the corner. The two men seemed to love Veronica as a sister and comrade.
"I don"t want the two of you to see me like this. You can leave now." She said.
"We find him." Whiskey said and strode to Veronica and kiss her forehead. He turn to Tony. "Move on now, playboy." Whiskey told him. Tony glare at Whiskey.
"My woman stays with me." He said.
He watch as they left. Then Catriona came with Albert. She sat just across the room and tried to reach Veronica.
"Cat, are you okay? We don"t know if this illness is viral."
"Veronica, be strong. We can"t fail Sabrina."
"I already failed her." Catriona chuckle.
"It doesn"t mean that we can"t proceed with our missions. We can"t fail ourselves. Years of training was worth it if we fight not lying in bed, right?"
Veronica laugh. Catriona really knows how to hit her well.
