Vega's genius exceeds that of any Einstein in the Universe. Her intellectual
knowledge is beyond anything we comprehend and our enhancements only sought to
maximize her gifts. She can solve any mathematical equation and taught herself
nuclear physics in one day. She's even helped us occasionally with sequencing
and mapping of genes and various problems we encountered, and solved them as if
the answer was there all along. I believe some of the other's here are
beginning to get jealous that a 16 year old is smarter than they are.
Her evaluations, however, prove to be most disturbing as she began to get
older. Resemblances between her and Richard are more prominent and unsettling
as the months pass and we fear that the there is a strong likelihood that she
will become a sociopath as well.
Other affinities, as well, are nearly just as disturbing. When we questioned
her about killing, she responded with the idea that all killing is valid
regardless of who the victim is, and has developed a very crude fight or flight
response over the years, from field and combat training.
When coming across potential prey, she lacks hesitation or uncertainty, and
still prefers to hunt and toy with them as a feline would; rather than go in
for the quick kill. Her MO is also similar to Richard's; she prefers the
victim's 'sweet spot' to any other possible entries to inflict death.
The psychologists sent in to examine her ran into a slight problem and have
recently given up. She began to mimic their movements and body language
precisely, as if studying them for weaknesses, and instead of them performing
tests on her; she was analyzing them. Unfortunately, the first doctor didn't
realize it and when the moment presented itself to Vega, she attacked him and
gutted the poor man, splaying his innards all over the room. Protocol from then
on required them to be in separate rooms with a shatterproof glass between
them.
As much trouble as she has caused, Lycon believes she will become a very good
asset to the company in helping them reach their goal.

It is sad to say that the Pandora's project has been put on hold. We sent Vega
out to begin her field research and when we lost contact with her, we sent
operatives to find Vega. When they finally found her she was completely
comatose, in a hospital, under Jane Doe. There was no report on how she arrived
there, but we have come to believe Richard was too much for her and attempted
to kill her. Why he let Vega live is beyond any knowledge or comprehension for
any of us to understand.

For the groups sake we all pray she recovers, if she doesn't we're all dead.

Vita had been sitting at the computer for nearly two hours. When she glanced
up, she noticed Vega staring at her from behind the glass; her breathe creating
a mist that Vega had written on. Vita read the letters and screamed, but no one
heard her. Her mind read the word over and over again, until it became a
taunting voice in her head singing it repeatedly.
'Death'
Vega couldn't help but smile.
