The fertilized egg continues down the fallopian tube where it is supposed to implant in the lining of the uterus if it is to live. When they unite (conception), they create a single cell with 46 chromosomes (diploid). What follows is a detailed description of the development of what may, eventually, become a unique human being.īaby (zygote): The egg and sperm each contain 36 chromosomes (haploid cells). If the magic takes place, the fertilized egg, or zygote, begins its trip to the uterus that is waiting to receive it and offer it a chance at life. If this does not occur, the egg will continue to travel until it is expelled from the woman’s body along with the unused lining of the uterus. If a woman’s egg, the ovum, encounters a viable spermatozoon or motile sperm, they will unite, and a new life will begin. On a path fraught with peril, it all depends on timing. This awesome piece was done by twitter.It begins as a single cell on a journey – a journey that will end with death or life. Who knows? For now, as Cicilia mixed up her set again for Max, she was content to just enjoy the moment. and decided she would have to meet up with him again someday. WHAT COULD IT HAVE BEEN MADE OF!? With how hard Max was striking, normal leather would have EASILY fallen apart but this.Ĭicilia found herself enjoying her time marveling at Max and the place where he worked out. Those muscles, as it turned out, weren't just for show! And the gear. She might just have to come back and figure out what! For now, Cicilia slipped on a pair of boxing pads and helped Max with his strength and combinations, mixing it up every so often to keep his attention fresh and his focus sharp.He was good. Something was different about this place! Cicilia MARVELED at the interior! Everything was so shiny and new, the place so CLEAN and bright as if it were a whole other world! Like. It was just a short walk and a bus-ride to where the boy worked out and yet. innocent enough, kind.And he did move her without trying anything so. He had taken note how easily she wore through workout gear when she was determined and offered to take her to HIS gym.

fragile compared to the stuff he was used to. Cicilia blinked, confused, but Max explained that the gear here was just so. and Max, as he introduced himself, AGREED!.
#8 DAYS LEFT SKIN#
She THANKED him for helping her, even as her skin crawled from all the EYES now peering upon their conversation, all the ears drinking on the gossip! She asked him if she could help with his training, maybe help firm up his already. and as he turned to face her, noticing her, Cicilia. Cicilia walked up to the boy, looming over him as he worked out. She had never paid attention to the other regulars before anyway. she never really saw him here before.Or maybe she just never noticed him. And that deserved a reward of some kind.Ĭicilia went back to the gym once her bruised ego had healed itself, the German spotting the blonde boy amongst the crowd of regulars. he had done something for her and didn't ask for a THING in return! Not her name, not her money, hell, not even a conversation. Nothing crazy, after all, all he did was spare her dignity but. Maybe it's because she didn't expect a random act of kindness from a stranger, after all, all her experiences WITH those strangers either ended oddly. Cicilia had spent the better part of the last two days thinking about what Max had done for her.
