Research log: It seems that the subject is a great deal more intelligent than what was first predicted, he has intelligence comparable to a humans. I estimate that his I.Q. is between 95 and 115, though I can't be sure. Another interesting bit of information is that the subject seems to have an attatchment to the girl we're going to use in testing. This is the perfect means to ensure the subject's cooperation.
Dr. Adam Smith
Kagome still felt as though her feet were rooted to the floor, this just couldn't be happening. A feeling of numbing disbelief washed over her. There was no way this could be real. Her gaze drifted from Inuyasha to the bored looking Smith who was giving out orders to the researchers.
"I want the subject on fifty percent blood level, make sure that you get it into refridgeration for later use. Add 10 percent to sedative levels, make sure he's in stasis for at least forty eight hours. And you two-"
Smith pointed at the two researchers who had been hurt when Inuyasha turned demon, one had blood dripping from his neck from the cuts from Inuyasha's claws and the other was still laying on the floor where he had fallen.
"You get a twenty five percent paycut this month. Such failure is not tolerated."
Kagome looked back at Inuyahsa's unconscious form. He had a large amount of steel restraints on and three researchers were hoisting his limp body onto the steel table. Then they put three giant I.V.s with tubes connected into his neck and arms and began pumping Inuyasha's blood into little packets.
Smith paused from his directing for a moment to look critically at Kagome. 'yes, this will work' he thought.
"You!" he said sharply to Kagome, who was still watching Inuyasha.
"Come with me."
Smith turned and entered the observation room without looking back at Kagome. She hadn't even noticed him, she had been shocked into a sort of a trance. Two security gaurds grabbed each of her arms and led her to the room when she showed no signs of obeying Smith's orders.
The room was exceptionally dim compared to the brightly lit testing room where she had been moments before. It caused Kagome to be momentarily blinded while her eyes adjusted, all she seemed to be able to see was the light reflecting off of Smith's glasses. He seemed to be examining the bottle that so resembled hairspray that he had subdued Inuyasha with. He said to Kagome without looking up:
"It was very kind of you to volunteer to help with all of these studies and tests." He held up the papers Kagome had signed earlier in the lobby.
"I doubt you paid very close attention to what you were signing, Some of the things you volunteered for look quite painful. 'reaction of a normal human when transfused with the subject's blood?'. Quite painful sounding indeed. Not that I'm complaining, a human subject is necessary to for many of the tests I have planned" Smith looked up at Kagome with an evil glint in his otherwise bored looking eyes.
Kagome thought for a moment about what she had just heard, and gasped when she realized what had happened.
"You can't make me do that! I'm going to tell everyone what you're doing here, what you're doing to Inuyasha is evil. I'm going to stop you, one way or another." Kagome said with growing confidence. She was going to free Inuyasha no matter what.
Smith didn't seem intimidated though, instead he again began studying the bottle of chemicals he had sprayed on Inuyasha.
"This is an interesting chemical, this Aeronide. When an organism with a well developed olfactory system is exposed to it their brain is assaulted by it, it could cause death if it's not dilluted with other chemicals. Yet when a human is exposed to it-"
Smith pointed the bottle straight at Kagome, she started to back up from it but before she could get more than a step away Smith sprayed the chemicals directly at her face. Kagome inhaled sharply and waited for the horrible rending, burning pain to overwhelm her, just as it had Inuyasha, but.... nothing happened.
Smith began examining the bottle again and continued;
"- there is no affect whatsoever. Human's just don't have the sense of smell to pick up the chemicals. Of course I wouldn't want my subject to die yet, there are so many studies I need to conduct. But there are always accidents when dealing with such a dangerous specimen. Without the help of someone who can control the subject, that would be you, such an accident is very likely."
Kagome felt the loss in her heart as she realized what had just happened, she had lost. There was nothing she could do. They had Inuyasha, they were doing horrible things to him, and she was going to help them. She had no choice, Inuyasha's life hung in the balance.
After simply standing there for a moment whe looked up at Smith with a curiously blank look on her face.
"You have to let me see him at least once a week, or I won't. If you do, I'll do whatever you want. Just as long as you don't kill him. I swear."
