Chapter Text
Anna screams. Delenn hums. It's the way it goes, day after day. The Minbari cuts her, injects her, takes blood, pulls teeth, each experimentation is a failure. Anna is not Minbari, she never will be. Her soul isn't. Delenn and the others had killed all the humans with Minbari souls in the war.
They couldn't undo it with the handful of humanity that was left. Anna had tried to explain that once, Delenn cut out her tongue.
Anna prays for death but it does not come. Delenn no longer looks at her like a test subject, she gazes at the way a lover does. She will not let Anna die any time soon.
