"What?" his eyes widened and he looked at him "THAT's Skinner???"
 "Thats Skinner in his normal form..." she said and sighed. "When he was captured by a man named Craven...they used his skin to develop another invisiblity formula. After that, they gave him the antidote."

"Oh gosh" Sawyer said
 "Come on," Mina said and then headed back to the ship.

Sawyer followed
Jekyl brought Skinner to his room to take care of him.

Mina follwed them but stoped at the door and looked on. She didnt know how she could help Rodney.
 "you can help wash the blood off...." Jekyl said

Mina nodded and walked over. She looked down at Skinner, a rush came over her. She had to lick off the blood all of it. Mina licked her lips and her fangs came out, then bent over and started to take away the blood.

Jekyl looked over at her "Mina! Contain yourself"
 "What?" she asked. "You told me to get the blood away, Im a vampire you do remember dont you?"

"Well, yes, but I meant with a towel" he said and handed it to her.
 Mina sighed and took it and then started to whip the blood away instead and licked her lips.
Jekyl then placed a towl around Skinner's waist and tucked it underneath and threw his coat away
  "Will he be alright?" Mina asked.
"just a few scrapes...nothing major"
 "Good." Mina dabbed Rodney's face and finished.
 Jeyle went to his side and started to wash the major wound he had. Rodney gasped and his eyelids flew open and he sat up suddenly
 "Shh....." Mina said and placed a hand on his shoulder. "Your alright now dont worry. Your safe."
Rodney looked into her eyes with his peircing green ones
 Mina looked back into his and noticed she was going pink so turned her gaze to his wound.
Rodney put a hand to his head and lay back down as Jekyl continued to clean the wound

 Mina ran a hand over his forehead and over his hair then crossed the room to wash out the bloody towel.
Skinner's eyes followed her
 She ran the towel under the water to get the blood off of it. She had to do it fast before she had another urge again for his sweet tasting blood.
Jekyl bandaged up the major wonds and the went to wash his hands.
  Mina saw the blood and bit down on her lip, she had to resist.

Jekyl looked at her "Maybe you should leave....."
 She looked away and dried her hands. "Probably...I'm just taking up room anyways... its been so long." She said then headed to the door.
"Thank you" Rodney called out.
 Mina stoped and looked at him, holding onto one side of the door. "Your welcome Rodney." she said and then headed to her own room.

Jekyl then walked over "Ready to go back to your room?"
Skinner nodded "You bet"
Kekyle chuckled then picked him up and brought him to his room where he helped him dress into pajama pants and a black muscle T.

 Mina walked arround back and forth in her room. She couldn't believe what happened today. Skinner was visible, and Craven was now invisible. She put a hand to her head. "Too much for one day." she said to herself

 Jekyl then helped Skinner into his bed and then left him alone to rest. He then went to mina'sd room and knocked.
 "Yes?" she looked to the door as it was half open already.
"I just wanted to thank you for your help." Jekyl said
 "Oh your welcome Jekyl." she said, stoping her pacing and looked at him. "But Im sorry...."
"For what?"
 "For not really being able to control myself...thats all." Mina said, embarased.

"It's alright" jekyl said "And Skinner will be fine, he's just in his room, resting"
  "Oh well thats good." She said. "I bet hes probably having a hard time with the whole deal."

"He's a little drugged up so he kinda isn't all there" he tapped his head.
 "Well I would hate to get into his way when he is all there, I bet he wont be too happy about it."
"Why wouldn't he mina?" Jekyl asked
 "I dont know." she said. "He just might not be happy to be arround anyone"
"I wouldn't say that mina. He's quite fond of you."
 "Me?" Mina couldnt help but let out a little laugh. "Fond of me of all people?"

"If you don't see it then......" jekyl turned to leave
  "Wait..." Mina grabbed onto his arm. "You don't have to go I just don't quite see why he does."

"What do you mean?"
 "I mean i guessed he fancied me a bit since he seems to like to smack my bottom..."
Jekyl chuckled "that's the way he is mina, and that is probably way you don't realize it"
 "Oh well I didn't know." Mina said.
Jekyl shrugged "Well, it's getting late"
 "Quite right...and I asume that we will have a long day head of us tomorrow."
"Most likely"
 "Well, I will see you tomorrow then."
"That you will" he smiled then left.
  "Goodnight Jekyl." She said as he left then closed the door behind him.

--------------------------------------------------

A few hours later, Skinner awoke. He looked at the clock. 2:45. He groaned
  Asleep in her bed, Mina was breathing steadily and hugged onto the edge of her pillow.
Skinner sighed and rolled out of bed. He then made his way to the kitchen

Mina's brow furrowed as she heard something, she usually was awake at night plus she had good hearing. Her eyes opened and she looked to the door. Again she heard something, so she got up and pulled on a robe. Mina grabbed a knife and then headed out into the hallway.

Skinner made it to the kicthen and opened the fridge and glanced inside.

Mina rounded the corner. She saw a light, someone peeking into the fridge. Everyone was sleeping, she drew up her knife just incase it was an intruder and headed over stealthly to the fridge.

Skinner closed the fridge and jumped when he saw mina "Goddamit Mina, you scared me"
 She she saw him she sighed and lowered the knife. "I scared you? Bloody hell yo scared me" she said.

"I'm sorry" skinner sat and placed the chocolate cheescake on the counter and then boosted himself and sat on it.
 Mina looked at him. "Its ok..." she looked at the cheese cake and held out the knife. "You'll probably need this anyways."

Skinner looked at it "Oh thank you" he said and took it from her. He felt her eyes on him as he cut it. "Would you like a piece?"
 "Cheese cake is my favorite." Mina admitted. "Other than blood of course." she said

Skinner chuckled. "Here ya are" he hands a piece to her on a napkin.
 "Thanks." She took it from him and then sat down on a nearby chair

Skinner looked down at his hand then at the cheesecake "I'm not hungry anymore" he muttered
 "Something wrong?" Min asked, looking at him.
"Not really.....I mean, I'm not used to seeing my hand"
 She looked at him. "Im sorry..."
"For what?" He looked up at her
  "Well that we let you get caught." Mina swallowed. SHe knew that he didn't want to be this way, that it was weird for him buts he found herself regretting her appology.

 he shrugged "No worries"
  She looked at him. "You dont mind?"
 "Not........really......no...."
 "Oh." Mina said. "I thought that you would..."

"Eh....it's alright....." he said "I'm just going to miss everyone"
  "What do you mean your going to miss everyone?"
 "Well, I'm not......'extraordinary' anymore" he said, placing the knife down
 "So that doesnt mean you need to leave Skinner, especially in my books your a part of the team."

"Oh come on mina, name one good thing I'm good for now"
 Mina opened her mouth to speak, she had to say something, anything to make him stay.
"See? Even you can't think of anything."
 "Can't think of anythng right this second." she corrected him. "Its the middle of the night."
"Yea okay" he said and jumped off the counter, he still wore his black muscle T and it made his shoulders, chest, and abs look desirable
  Mina gripped onto the corner of the table watching him. "your leaving?"

"Yea...."
  "Why?" Mina asked. "What did I do wrong?"
"Nothing" he said and looked at her "You did nothing wrong"
 "OH......ok." Mina said and then looked up at him. "Rodney?" she asked.

"Yes mina?"
 "You look good." she said and looked back down at her cheese cake. Mina picked it up and took a bite.
Skinner stood there. He smiled "Thank you......but you more so"
  Mina looked up at him. "Thank you." she was also thankful there was almost no light so he couldnt see her face well enough.
"Anyway....uh..." Rodney was at a lost for words
  "You should probably rest. You were scratched up real bad."
Skinner shrugged "not as bad as having my ass fried"
  "Well im sure your ass is perfectly fine."
Skinner grinned "So is yours......slappable"
 "Oh god not that again. " Mina said. "Thats not what i ment."
Skinner's smile faded "i know...." he said
 "But thanks for the compliment." she said then laughed.

Skinner nodded "Alright....uh..."

"Well I guess the good thing about the way you are is I know where you all at are times." she stood up. "That way I can protect my bottom you seem to be so fond of." she grinned,

"Yea....." he said and backed up.
 she raised an eyebrow. "i didnt scare you did I?"
"No..." he said as what light there was hit him just right
 Mina bit down on her bottom lip again,
"I should uh" he cleared his throat "go rest"
  "Oh....right." she remembered she was staring at him and stoped. "Im sorry."

"Don't be"
  "How come?" Mina looked back up at him.
Skinner shrugged "I dunno"
 "Well Im sorry for keeping you ...." she confessed.
"Don't be, I quite enjoyed it"
 "Well in that case im not sorry." Mina smiled.
"Good" he said and took a ste towards her
 "Well, it was a good conversation." Mina said. "It puts me at rest to know that you are alright." she watched him.

"oh I am..." he said as he passed her, he then smacked her butt and then ran off
 Mina's first reaction was to place her hands over her bottom and she did. "Oh I am so going to get you." she called after him.
"oh I hope so"
 "I bet you do." Mina said and then went back to her own room.
 Rodney flopped onto his bed
 She went to her bed and layed down, looking up at the ceiling.
 Rodney then fell asleep
 "What are you doing Mina?" she questioned herself and then fell asleep

Rodney woke up early and ran to the kitchen then started to make breakfast for everyone.
 Later on, to the smell of cooking food, Mina woke up and open her eyes. she sniffed the air for a while and then headed for the kitchen.
