Art by me! (It's just a plague doctor in general)

As 049 buttoned his shirt I couldn't help but stare at his form. His chest, having the most scars, his slight abs have a few scars, his shoulders only having two scars. His neck... his neck had one scar that stretched long from his left to his right. Why would other SCP's attack him? What has he done?
"Why would they attack you?" He stopped buttoning half way up and faced me.
"The others are a lot more hostile than I. They have constant bloodthirst and won't hesitate attacking anyone who gets in their way. That day, that person was me." He explained with a flat voice.
"I'm sorry.. I have yet to even meet the others." He walked towards me slowly and I got up from sitting on the ground. A constant sentence ran through my thoughts over and over again. 'You're not a human'. If I'm not a human... then what am I? Why am I here? I was yanked out of my thoughts when a familiar gloved hand touched my chin and made me look up at his golden yellow eyes.
"Are you alright?" When I was about to reply I heard a loud speaker turn on.
"Attention all class-D personnel; we are going into lockdown. Please remain in your location." I got closer to the doctor and he quickly buttoned his shirt and grabbed my wrist.
"What happened?" I asked with worry in my voice.
"The other SCP's have escaped. We need to stay in here."
"Will they try to hurt me?" The SCP got closer to me and I found my head laying on his chest.
"I promise I will not let that happen. To either one of us. It should be impossible for them to get in due to the fact the guards locked the door." I started to get scared. My head started to hurt and I was dizzy. My breathing became heavy and my hands burned. I looked at my hands that had been gripping 049's chest. I saw my veins were bright green. I gasped and pulled away.
"Thank you... that was starting to burn." 049 told me.
"Burn? But..." I gasped once more when I saw sizzling acid drip from my fingers. I can form acid? Since when? Is this what they mean by 'you're not a human'?
"No way... how can I do this?"
"It is likely that your nerves had activated your ability. Were you unaware of your power?" I started shaking and tried to make the acid stop. I jumped when I heard loud knocks on the door. I found myself going back to being against 049, who tensed up.
"Do not be afraid. As your doctor, it is my job to protect you." I buried my face in his chest as he tensed more.
Many thoughts ran through his mind. How am I so willing to touch him? Am I not afraid of the possibility of him killing me with his touch? How was he able to heal me instead of hurt me?
"Here, follow me." He started to walk towards the darker areas of his room. I followed the doctor quickly and ended up tripping due to the dizziness I was experiencing. I fell forward and ended up falling on the plague doctor. My weight made him stumble back but he held me upright. I began to sway to the side which made his hands grip my waist. The pain grew immensely and I was about to black out. 049 placed his hand on my head and started to stroke my hair. I knew it was all to comfort me and make me relax. I whimpered and found my eyes closing while he sat down. I ended up passing out with my head on his chest.

"You're such a brat!"

"Know wonder your parents left you."

"I hate you!"

"You mess everything up!"

"Go get hit by a truck on your way to your friend's house."

I started crying as these words were being yelled at me. My little hands grabbed my bag and I stumbled out the door. My wrist still hurt from getting burned. I waddled into the street and ended up falling. I was new to walking at age 2. I saw a truck heading my way and I began crying. My knees were scraped and I couldn't stand because of my bag. I remember seeing my adoptive parents put bricks in my bag. They meant to do this. Just as the truck was about to hit me, I shot up from 049's bed gasping and crying. The sudden motion made the doctor jump slightly.
"What happened? Are you alright, dear? Was it another nightmare?" I nodded and hugged my knees while crying.
"Would you like to talk about it?"
"Y-yes..." I sniffled and felt my hands burn once more. I explained my dream and childhood to 049 and I swear I saw a tinge of sorrow within him. He moved swiftly onto the bed with me did something I honestly didn't expect from him. He laid me down and laid with me.
"I apologize... that is horrible. Humans are awful, selfish beings." I nodded and turned so I was facing him. The burning sensation in my hands faded and I buried my head in the crook of his neck. Loose tears fell and he tensed greatly. He slowly and hesitantly pulled me closer to him.
"You're alright now. I am your cure."
