RACHEL GETS ANNOYED.
Lovrina had returned, accompanied by the two peons who had
manhandled Rachel earlier, and in the space of half-an-hour had
found out exactly how to really tick Rachel off.
"My name is Rachel." She stated, in response to something Lovrina
had said, not to her, but about her to one of the two goons. It was
the second time Rachel had made this statement, but Lovrina's
response was the same as the first time. She ignored the statement
as if Rachel had not spoken at all.
"I have so worked out how to do this, but it will so require much
preparation, which can be so started here. After that, XD002 will so
have to be moved to the Key Lair for the second stage of its
processing. It will so need to be processed more than once, but it
will so work in the end. Of course, adjustments and modifications
will so need to be made, as this is an experimental technique."
"I told you, my name is Rachel. You're heading for a pair of black
eyes if I get hold of you!" Rachel snarled. Lovrina turned, as if
hearing her for the first time, a small and unpleasant smile on her
face.
"Oh dear." Lovrina said, again not to Rqachel but to one of her
companions. "The subject is becoming so violent. It so looks like the
sedative we administered early is beginning to wear off. We so have
to administer another." Rachel glared at the other woman. She had
met Lovrina for the first time less than four hours ago, and had
hated her from the first minute of their introduction.
Lovrina nodded to her two peons, who moved either side as she
unlocked the door of the pen. They filled the entrance to stop
Rachel attempting to escape, then stepped forwards, one after the
other in quick succession, and grasped her winged arms.
"Hey!" Rachel exclaimed. The two peons bore Rachel backwards
until she had her back against the wall of the pen, pinioning her
there by her arms. She tried to kick out, until one of them used his
leg to immobilise hers. Lovrina entered, preparing a syringe which
she none too gently administered to Rachel in one upper arm, then
used another syringe to administer a sedative into a vein in her
elbow. As Rachel struggled weakly, Lovrina leaned towards her, and
gently placed one gloved hand on Rachel's cheek. Rachel bared her
teeth and tried to pull away, but found the sedative had robbed her
of the strength. Lovrina brought her face close to Rachel's left ear.
"Don't worry, XD002. I know you so want to fight, but not yet. Once
I've finished with you, you can fight all you want. However, you will
fight for us."
Rachel's eyelids sagged, and her knees buckled, and only the peon's
grips on her arms kept her upright. Lovrina turned her back on
Rachel, and walked out of the holding pen. Without a backward
look, she beckoned to her peons to follow.
"Bring it out to the transport vehicle. We are so taking this subject
to the Key Lair."
