Chapter 26: Planning

"Alright we have an hour and a half to get ready. From there we need to leave." Miles spoke as she guided Link, Navi and Jaraj to a tent. "Quou is going to have to help us" explaining as she looked back at Jaraj. She had to decide who she was going with her. A small grin went across her face as she looked at Link.

"Why are you staring,Miles? You want my ass?" A voice that sounded exactly like Link's spoke up from behind the teen. Link winced, he didn't say that but it sounded like him. He turned and looked at himself. "W-wha" he backed up into Miles a bit freaked out. The other Link laughed seeing his reaction. "I love newbies!" Though the clothing was all wrong, his other self had on a poncho top and tight shorts with chains on them.

"You know, you make him look way too feminine the way you're dressed." Miles chuckled some.. "Well, he is already a pretty boy." the other Link chuckled in return. Link looked back at Miles and then to this other self. There was now a woman standing there with grey skin and she didn't have real hair. She had a Mohawk and the hair looked to be more like skin.

Navi stared at the woman. "What type of magic is that?" she questioned looking back at Miles and then to the woman.

Jaraj shook his head as he explained. "She's a shapeshifter and not a very good one." The woman put her hands on her hips looking at Jaraj. "Hey I might not have mastered clothing shifting but I can sure as hell turn into people very well, thank you very much." She looked at Link holding out her hand.

Link looked at her hand; she only had four fingers. Before he could take her hand the woman grabbed his shaking it. "Nice to meet you" She smiled and held up one of her fingers to Navi. Navi put her hand on her finger, shaking it, kinda.

Link looked at his hand and then to hers. Her hand seemed off like not normal skin. He looked at her as she held up her hand. The ends of her fingers had black marks on them. "They are called fillers. Helps with getting my transformations better, also to be able to use any type of special abilities they have. Though mine will be nothing like the original." She explained to Link.

Navi studied the woman. Did that mean she could turn into a faerie and teleport like she could? She shook her head. She wasn't sure why they were meeting this woman. She looked at Miles. "I need you to turn this teen into a Karuisha, he gets to be my boyfriend. I will also need a makeover and Jaraj as well."

Jaraj shook his head. "No, you can't have him in your little scheme. He would get eaten alive at the station. Plus he wouldn't even know what to do. A huge station is not a place for a non-merge. And Autum would not know she wouldn't." he argued with Miles.

Miles shook her head. "Takes too long to make sure long ear prosthetics work right. For my brother to know everything I need a Karuisha. I need one that will also fool a lawyer. Plus I still have to go over the script with Link and Quou, so no time." she clarified.

Navi watched the two bicker at each over. She jumped off of Link's shoulder flying up to Quou. "What's a Karuisha?" she asked the woman since she doubted that Miles and Jaraj would stray from their fight. They seemed to disagree with each other a lot.

Quou looked at Navi. "It's a type of demon." she said as she moved her hand to Link's face studying him. She was going to have to change an elf into a demon that would be simple. Karuisha were said to be the shadow of elves. He had the long ears, though not the nose or chin.

Link's ears went down as the woman was touching his face. He wasn't sure what she was doing. What more he was going to be a demon and Miles' boyfriend? He didn't have a clue what was going on. All that he knew at this point was that they were meeting Miles' brother who no one here seems to trust.

"Make Quou the demon. She can pull that off." Jaraj pointed at her. "No, she has to be a 5 year old. I don't think anyone will let me borrow their children in risk of their child being involved with a mission. And you have to give the Link credit; Autum likes him, she knows he's a skilled fighter so he will do he pulled off being an Elite, didn't he?" "I don't know that goes off all that well, did it?" complained Jaraj.

Miles looked at Quou who was surveying her canvas. "You think you can do that?" Quou nodded as she moved her hand off of Link's chin. She grabbed his arm. "We'll be back in twenty minutes. Miss Faerie I will have to ask you to leave. I don't need any distractions." Quou pulled Link into a nearby tent.

Navi watched Link get pulled away. She looked at Miles who waved for Navi to follow. "Come on don't worry about him. Quou will take care of him. She is one of the people here who isn't an ass. Plus I have a few questions to ask you." Miles claimed. Navi nodded and flew up landing on Miles' shoulder. She looked at Jaraj who walked away. He didn't seem too happy. It was clear he didn't have much faith in her plan.

Link looked around the tent that he was pulled into it. There were large trunks around the room. One was opened and a metal bar extended out and it had all types of clothes on it. It seemed all of the trunks were mini closets. He looked at her as she walked over to one.

Quou pulled out a pair of pants tossing it to him. "Put those on, not over your white pants. You're going to be hot enough as it is in those." She explained as she started to dig through another trunk. She stopped what she was doing for a moment as she looked over at him. He seemed to be looking for something. "If you are looking for a changing room, there is none. Sweetie,we're both adults, so you can change right there. So off with the tunic and get those pants on. Take off your earrings as well. We don't have time for you to worry about me seeing you change, we have bigger worries and time is of the essence." She went back to digging through her trunk.

Link bit his lip, his ears low as he sighed nervously. He just kept getting hit with one thing after another that kept throwing him out of his comfort zone. He figured he was going to have to just get used to being out of his natural feel. He grabbed the chair taking off his boots. After he stripped down, he put on the pants and pulled them up. They were two layers thick and rather hot and stuffy. He jumped some being startled as she dropped a large case onto a table.

"Pull the chair up here and sit down." Quou instructed him as she grabbed her own chair pulling it up. Sitting down she opened up one of the compartments of the case. "I'm sure you have never used a prosthetic. I'm going to warn you right off, it's going to be itchy and somewhat uncomfortable, but you can't mess with it. You keep your hands off, ok? I don't like halo costumes. They are a little too iffy as to whether or not they will do what they need to. Can't trust they won't glitch or the like either." She gabbed as she pulled out a nose. "I'm going to be putting this on your face along with a change your looks for the part you will be playing in this little gambit Miles has planned." she explained as he took the nose looking it over.

Link looked at her as she pulled out a couple more different shapes and sizes. "Turn your head." she directed as she pointed in a direction she wanted him to look. Once he did she held up the noses to his face. She took the one from his hand and gave him another one. "Hold that." She dropped the rest back into her case opening another compartment in it.

Link examined the one she gave him. It was of a rubbery material and was very thin. He never seen anything like it, a fake nose? But then again this whole dimension was all so different from what he had ever known from how they acted, to what they eat, their medical treatment, their buildings, spaceships, and weapons. He could never catch up with all the differences. He glanced at her as she pulled out a couple of what he assumed were chins. He twisted a little as she grabbed his chin making him look at her. "Hold still. This is important that I get the fit and look perfect." she stressed as she held a couple of chins up to his. She tossed the extras back into the case. "Don't move, got it. I don't want to put these on wrong."

Link nodded some after a few minutes he had on the fake nose and chin. He tapped on his face, it felt weird where the prosthetics were. He looked at the mirror that she moved in front of him, so to see. He tilted his head, it didn't look right to him at all. He didn't see how this off skin color fake nose and chin would fool anyone.

Quou got to her feet walking up behind him. She pulled out his hair out of the string. Pulling his hair and bangs she made a short ponytail on top of his head. She glanced at the mirror he was holding. She chuckled it seemed he was watching her every move. She stood back studying him to make sure she didn't miss any hair, once she was done she plopped back into her chair.

"Hold out your hand and spread out your fingers." Quou appealed as she bent over grabbing out a spray gun. She grabbed a small vial hooking it up to it. "So you are the rumored non-merge, right?" she questioned him as she sprayed it onto his hand making his hand a brownish-orange color. She tapped it with her finger to see how it was holding. She glanced up at him as he seemed to be amazed how his skin turned colors.

Link looked at his hand holding it up. "Y-yeah" he said as he looked at her. He didn't think he was that big of talk, but it seemed everyone knew about him and wanted to know more. His ears were low. He looked at her as she moved his hand back down moving it over. "So what is that you're using?" he asked her, trying to make a little bit of small talk that wasn't so focused on him.

Quou smiled as she sprayed the palm of his hand up and up on his forearm some. "This is um." She glanced away. "I believe some call it an airbrush. But all it's doing is spraying on the makeup instead of me using a brush." She explained as she sprayed his other arm. "You're going to be wearing long sleeves so don't have to do your whole arm. The type of demon you are portraying gets cold easily so layered clothing is what they wear. So you will have to adjust to being a bit warm."

Link nodded as he looked at his arms. He looked at her as she poked his cheek. "Close your eyes and mouth, also do not breathe in once I start; you think you can handle that?" she asked him.

Link nodded. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He flinched as he felt her put her hand under his chin. He let out a small gasp as she sprayed his forehead. "Cold?" she laughed. "Ok, close your mouth and take a big breath. Once he did she finished up his face. She gave him the ok to breath. She got to her feet working on his ears.

Link closed his eyes. It wasn't the most pleasant of feeling on his ear. He opened one of his eyes looking at her wanting to see what was being done. He yelped as she tugged on his ear. "Didn't think they were that sensitive, I hope you can stand fake earrings on them." Quou sat down looking at him. She pulled out a case opening it.

Quou looked at him as he rubbed his ear from where she had tugged. She pulled out a hair brush holding it to him. "Take out down hair and brush it. "I need to find the fake ear and nose rings." She got up. "Try to get all of your hair brushed."

Link watched her get up. It was clear she was on a mission and didn't screw around. He felt it was a nice change of pace. He messed with his hair some as he sighed. He wasn't sure if he wanted to ask about the nose rings. All he could think of was how he had seen some animals that had them on their noses. He looked in the mirror. He thought he looked weird with his skin tone a whole new color and he had a new nose that was strange to breathe thru. He started to brush his hair with every stroke it was turning black. He remembered this trick with Navi turning her hair purple. Once she got back she saw he'd the best he could. She dropped the case onto her chair taking the brush from him.

"You are a quiet one, you know that? Quiet people make me nervous. Why don't you tell me about your world? So I can get you to open up a little reason to be so shy." she enticed as she brushed his hair filling in the spots he had missed.

Link squirmed as she brushed through his hair. "er… well, there are a lot of forests and lakes." He spoke not too sure of what she wanted to know. At least, she didn't seem to be an ass like everyone else. He glanced up at her as she stopped.

"You're not very good at this socializing stuff, are you? Though I'm sure Fieria and Ryuk probably went the rounds with you. I'm sure they probably made fun of your tunic as well. It's just their way. It's how they get their jollies off. But I'm not going to be an ass, so no worries." she counseled as she held out the brush to him. Once he took it she grabbed up a box.

Link watched her; it was nice that someone else knew what a tunic was around here instead of calling it a man dress. For once he felt comfortable around someone. He could relax some rather than being on edge from being made fun of so much; fearing when the next attack would come and from whom. That's all he had met in this dimension was people poking fun at him in one way or another. He closed his eyes and let out a small sigh of relief.

Watching his shoulders relax some, it was good to see the boy not so tense. She was sure that Miles and that group already had poked fun at him. It was how they passed the time around here picking on each other trying to make the best of what little they had.

But as Link relaxed his mind to mission ahead. Who knows what he was really getting himself into? When he was playing an Elite, he knew he didn't do too well on the acting half. Here he was stuck acting once again, this time as Mile's boyfriend and he's never been a boyfriend before, so again he was lacking experience in that which they were asking of him. And it sounded like a child was involved, , he was hoping like heck he pulled this off.

"What type of faerie are you?" Miles asks as she dug through a box in her tent. She had a feeling Navi would be more helpful on this mission. It's why Autum would have brought her along.

"A dimensional faerie" Navi spoke up as she watched Miles pull some things out of a box. She looked at the file that Miles tossed to the side. It seemed to be what she was looking for. Miles tossed the rest into her box, shoving it back with the others.

"Good, that means you can teleport a large group without having to touch anyone unlike the Huthantas." Miles spoke up as she grabbed the files getting to her feet. "I-I can?" Navi spoke questioning what Miles just assumed she could do.

Miles dropped the files onto a table and looked at Navi on her shoulder. "Dimensional faeries are used to teleport whole ships. So you should be able to do that and teleport a group without touching anyone." Watching Navi's reaction she shook her head. "That's what you get to do while me, and the others are gone, you will learn to do that. I'll get some of the better mannered people here to work with you, because that is going to be a key point to getting Autum and those kids out of there."

Navi nodded, still not sure of herself. She wasn't even sure how to train herself to do that and why hadn't anyone mentioned this to her before?. Navi jumped off of Miles' shoulder landing next to the file looking at it while she shuffled through the file. "What is all of this?"

Miles glanced at Navi. "It's all papers on a Reachal Geal Bergeral. She really doesn't exist but she is a name I use. It's one my brother and I specially made in case of an emergency for anything DP related while he was still there." She pulled out an ID out of it.

"One Karuisha is what you ordered right, Miles?" Quou spoke up as she walked into the tent followed by Link. "If you keep messing with those earrings I promise you I will just give you the real piercings." She looked at Link who was messing with his ears. He looked at Navi smiling awkwardly; he had two sharp fangs on the right side of his mouth.

Miles smirked as she walked up to Link. He had 4 nose rings on the bridge of his nose and 10 earrings on each ear. Which seemed to be bothering Link more than the prosthetics he was wearing. She studied the shading and skin color she had given Link. Quou had styled his hair as well, pulling it all back with one side of his bangs over his right eye. He had a large demon mark over his left eye. He also had two horns on the top of his head that seemed to be well mixed in with his hair.

Navi flew up to him; his nose and chin, they looked a bit bigger and off shape. She tapped his nose and winced. "Wh-what is on your nose?" She questioned him. She studied his orange yellow eyes; she at least knew those were contacts.

"Those are called prosthetics; Miles will have almost a full face one. Also what am I supposed to be making Jaraj?" Quou spoke up as she put her arm on Miles' shoulder looking at Link. She did a good job, the hardest part would have been contacts but Link seemed to already know what those were. Then there was the fact he wasn't leaving his ear rings alone, she might have to hit him for that.

"Some taxi driver.. you can even make up the character he will play. I will go over with you what you will be doing in the tent." Miles explained as she looked at Link who was messing with his ear. Miles slapped his hand. "If you don't think she will give you those piercings you're wrong."

Link winced as he rubbed his hand looking down. He wasn't sure if he could stand all of these fake ear rings on his ears. He glanced at Navi who landed on his shoulder messing with one of them. She was a bit amazed how much Quou changed Link's looks.

"Where should I send these two while you help me get ready?" Miles asked Quou. Link shook his head. "I wouldn't mind going back to Eznik's ship to check on Zigor and Gotenoo." He spoke up hoping that they would let him. Miles nodded. "That's perfectly acceptable. Just remember those two need their rest so don't linger too long. If you tarry around camp I would avoid the two that were picking on you earlier. " Miles reminded them as she headed out of the tent.

Link nodded following the two. Watching them walk off he messed with his ear and moaned as he felt one of the earrings fall off. "er.." He looked over at Navi who had caught it. He held his hand to her as she dropped it. "You think she will notice?" Link asks Navi, praying that the shapeshifter probably wouldn't notice.

Navi shook her head. "I don't know, she seems to be someone who definitely pays attention to detail, Link. It's part of her job I believe, making people look like other people .Every detail, I imagine is important. Like Brat told us a lot of people are trained to look for something off or out of place." She looked at his ear rings grabbing the one out of his hand clipping it back onto his ear. He let out a small yelp from it. "You ok!?" She asked, a little concerned.

Link nodded a little bit as he headed to the ship. "Yah… just hurt a little bit. I'm just not used to it is all." He smiled meekly at her not wanting her to worry. He looked to the ship praying that the others were ok.

Celtic sighed as he headed out of the lab. He paused. "Thank you." He looked back at Bella who nodded in return. He walked out of the room, he immediately ran into a couple of guards. He looked at the guards and then to whom they were escorting. His ears went low as he looked away, his heart sunk.

Autum was staring at the ground. They were making her walk on her bad leg as she struggled along. Noticing someone near she looked up and saw Celtic. Her first thought was the bastard had no backbone at all. He wasn't even in shackles; it seemed he switched sides to what is convenient for him. How the hell could she be married to slime like him? How could she have made such a huge error in judgement? She looked away from him; not wanting to look at him any longer. She winced as the guards pulled her on into the lab. She then was pushed into a chair. Closing her eyes as she tried to drown out the pain from her many wounds. No rest for the noncompliant it seemed, after the torture the interrogators did to her it seemed now they were going to experiment on her.

Celtic looked back at the room. He needed to get to Eznik and ask him what the hell he should do. He couldn't let everyone just be lab rats here. His heart was breaking seeing Autum in the shape she was in. Shaking his head he headed down the hall to where he was called to next.

Bella looked at Autum who had her hands shackled behind her. She took the stick out of her mouth setting it onto her papers. Walking up to Autum she tapped Autum's arm. "Open your eyes, if you're good I'll get you some pain medication." Bella growled some as Autum opened her eyes and just spit on her.

Autum glared at the woman and growled as she was smacked by her. Well, it seemed not all of the scientists weren't cowards she thought. She closed her eyes. She hated the fact that this bitch could do anything to her and she could do nothing about it. Part of her thought about tripping the bitch, but the pain was getting to her.

"Now let's do this again…" Bella spoke as she used a rag to wipe her coat where Autum had spit on her. "Either you can be cooperative and I give you some pain killers or I just shoot you with whatever the fuck I want and watch you scream out in agony. It's your choice." She watched Autum waiting for her response.

Autum looked to the ground. The medication would help, but what did this woman want with her? "What the hell do you want me to do? Bark like a dog like you have that idiot demon do?" she snapped at her. She still wasn't in the best of moods either, but was finally getting all of those emotions out of her.

Bella shook her head. "Simple I ask you a few things and you answer them." She spoke as she walked over grabbing her stick, putting it back in her mouth. She grabbed her pad and sat on her chair. She pushed herself over to Autum who had situated herself a bit better in the seat.

Autum eyed the woman wishing she could get out of the shackles. She glanced at the papers to see if she could see any of it. She looked at the woman who moved to her side and started to write down a couple of things. She let out a small frustrated snarl, she hated this waiting for this woman. She was in a lot of pain and none of her wounds had been looked at. She grimaced as the woman tapped on her arm.

"These are seals by the demon, Celtic?" Bella asked her. Autum looked to the ground she was screwed either way, no matter what she said. She closed her eyes. Her eyes flew open as she looked at the woman who was writing on her arm. "What the hell are you doing?" Autum snapped at her.

"Getting you to talk, you answer my questions the faster I get a doctor in here to treat you. I will also give you painkillers that they won't give you. I'm not asking you to surrender up names or betray anyone, just a little bit of personal information." Bella leaned back looking at Autum, though she already knew the answer for the markings. She had studied Celtic's while he was asleep. His marks seem to have a unique design to them and Autum's seemed to have the same. "Are these seals by the demon, Celtic?"

Autum glanced at her and nodded a little bit. She looked at the woman who pulled out a medical gun. She set it on her lap and started to dig through her pocket. "Have you ever been pregnant?" Autum immediately turned away. She didn't even want to bring that up. She would not speak about such. Besides it was none of the governments or anyone else's business. She closed her eyes so pissed to be in this situation; them tearing at her most personal wounds. She let out a small gasp as she was shot with the medical gun. She looked in surprise at the scientist as she got up.

Bella recognized the look Autum had given. It was a look she knew too well. She lost her two children. She didn't want to pry into that. There was no need to she, got the information she needed, also answered the other question that she was wondering about. Word spread fast that the demon had a wife and all wondered if immortality passed down to the child or not, but this short interrogation answered that question. She walked up pushing a button. "I need a doctor in her for patch up." She spoke glancing at Autum who was clearly trying to figure out why the questions just stopped.

Autum leaned back in the chair as Bella walked up sitting in the chair by her. She glanced away not really wanting to chat any more about her own personal life. "The drugs kick in?" Autum let out a sigh and nodded. She was ready to go back to her cell so she can get some rest. She glanced at Bella who wheeled around to the other side of Autum.

Bella pulled out her pen writing down a couple of things on Autum's arm. She looked at Autum who was trying to look at what she was writing. Getting to her feet as a doctor walked in with medical supplies, she grabbed her chair pulling it away from Autum.

Celtic walked into the medical wing, his eyes trailed to Eznik who was lying in a bed hooked up to a couple of machines. Getting ready to walk to him he jumped as he felt a hand on his shoulder. He looked back at Oskal who had a grin slapped on his face.

"Well Orme.. It seems you're still trying to be more Mortal. You have a wife though there seems to be no true paperwork registered with the Government. And now she's come to join our little family. How great for you, huh? Getting to see her again. I'm sure you want to hop right on that. She is something else but she's not in the best of condition right now so best not." chortled Oskal. Celtic looked at him as he put tongue to cheek to keep from saying anything..

"I do hope you're not here to see your little friend, your brother-in-law I believe, without my permission for that would be a violation, my pet, wouldn't it? Besides he's fine, well, as much as he can be.. considering all that he's been through." Oskal chuckled as he looked around at the others in the medical wing, Reki, Deka, Gajara along with a couple other experiments that went wrong. "Why don't you go run off to lab 039f2. They have a couple of drugs they need to test out. And Orme, I don't want to see you in here again without permission from me or Bella or there will be consequences and now we have more of your friends and family to take those consequences out on." he snapped.

Celtic glanced away from him. He let out a sigh as he looked at Eznik. He prayed that he was fine along with the others. He looked at Deka who looked in pretty bad condition. Shaking his head he headed out to the lab that he was assigned to.

Bella winced as she walked into Celtic as he walked out of the medical wing. "Oh.." she looked at Celtic and chuckled. "My bad…" She spoke as she watched him bend down picking up the files she dropped. Taking her files she tapped him on his arm. "I'm going to have you later unseal your wife." She spoke up as she watched for his reaction.

Celtic stared at her shaking his head. "No, I can't ..if I do she will die! So she has to stay sealed up." He contended. "Why is that, Orme?" He shuttered some as he heard Oskal's voice behind him. Celtic's ears went low as he knew he had to give a half lie. He didn't want to go into the details. If they knew what caused her wounds they would want to see the effects of them. "She has a mortal wound I sealed up. Her brother couldn't help her so I did the only thing I could think of." He felt a hit in the back of the head. He held his head looking at Oskal.

"You wouldn't be lying to me Orme, would you? You know what the cost of lying is." Oskal warned as he studied Orme's face. He shook his head. "Once the patients in there are healed up, I want you, Bella, to get the best Medical team together. You will also get a detailed report from Orme here of how his wife obtained her fatal wounds and then get her unsealed."

Celtic bit his lip he didn't want to see Autum die. She could NOT be unsealed. He doubt even the best medical team could help. The wounds would be 3 times worse than they were when she first got them. He looked away not wanting to drown in his thoughts over it. "Off Orme to the lab. I have private matters with Bella."

Celtic looked back at Oskal then to Bella. He shook his head walking off. It seemed the fates were laughing at him. His few; what little friends he had were all suffering. And now his wife would surely end up dying because of the seals he gave her. He needed to find a way to get them off of this station, though he didn't even know where to start.

"What do you have for me?" Oskal asked as he walked down the hall. "Celtic had a child, but it seemed the child wasn't immortal." Bella briefed him as she flipped through her papers. "Also Donald wanted me to inform you that the Raktvira boy we have has a sister who is currently in the Hebrew project. So we could transfer him there since you do owe Mindela a favor. Also Mindela wants a blood sample from Celtic to test for one of her experiments'' She notified him as they walked into his office.

"Alright.. as for the Raktvira I want a couple test done on him first then we can send him their way. Go ahead and ship off the blood sample to her. Did you get any information on the ones that escaped?" Oskal as he sat down on a couch in his office. He looked at Bella who sat down looking through her papers.

"Zigor Tigerous is a runaway slave from the government's 32Huth slave planet. So we do have rights to him. His brother is also in the Hebrew project." She glanced through the papers, " As for Atia, there is no information on her existing at all, so either the doctor was lying about her, or she is from a non-merge and never registered. As for the man in the medical wing, there is no information on him as well, not on species, nothing. "She dropped the files onto Oskal's lap. "That's all I have." She leaned back as she chewed on the stick she kept in her mouth.

Oskal looked at the files. "What about Reki's files? Do you know if the guards have found anything?" Bella asked. "They have been searching the labs but nothing so far, they also completely took his room apart. This is a large station so it will take them a while to search it all. For all we know he could have put it in a panel in the floors."

Oskal sighed as he opened up one of the files. "Any luck cracking what needs to be done?" Bella shook her head. "I believe I got it to have a stronger effect. I might test it on one of the new lab rates, if I may." She glanced at him.

Oskal tossed the file he was looking at on the coffee table nearby. "Do it to Autum, she will be your lab rat to run the test you need to. We should use her while we got her. She will be taken in a few days for trail or whatever they are going to do to her much to Orme's chagrin." He spoke as he opened up another file.

Bella nodded some as she got to her feet. "Is there anything else?" questioning him as she got to her feet. "You don't look to thrilled with who I picked as your lab pet. Is it because she lost a child like you?" he questioned her.

Looking away Bella didn't like how he would bring it up. He stood and put his hand on her shoulder. "Do a couple tests on her. Then I have a fun little experiment I would like to test with Brat." Oskal told her, smiling.

Bella glanced at him. "I would like to see if we used that drug on her in her human form. It might allow us to communicate with that beast." He smirked. "I will be glad to let you administer the drug and be with me for it."

Bella smiled some and nodded. "Alright, I'll make sure it's a lot stronger when I test it on her." Oskal chuckled. "Go on, I'll keep you updated on the girl. Once her father is well enough we can also do testing with him and her."

Bella smirked and nodded. She kissed him on the cheek and headed out of the room. They were having their own little affair. Oskal didn't really care that he was cheating on his wife. He was away from her for long periods of time because of this project so he really didn't consider it wrong. And what more Bella seemed to enjoy the same things he did with experiments so he enjoyed her company.
