Autum could feel her body give out on her. She hit the small hover table knocking the tools on the ground. She gritted her teeth from the overwhelming pain that took over her body from standing on her leg. Her arms were shaking. She had fell to the ground. She was on her side and she tried to move her leg some to help with the pain, but it was fruitless.
"I'll kill! I will gut you bitch!" Autum screamed out from the pain. She looked at the knife in front of her. She wished her hands would move towards it, but all they were doing were shaking. Closing her eyes tears ran down her face, she couldn't take the pain or the emotional distress she was in.
Miles watched the scientist who just stayed sitting on her chair on her tablet. She wished Jacob gave the call right now. She would put a bullet right now in the woman's head for what she made Autum do. She was grateful that she made the two boys leave. This was something they didn't need to see.
Celtic was slumped forward in the chair he was strapped to. He was breathing slowly trying to stay conscious. He wished he had just passed out so Autum would have been done. Forcing himself to look up when he heard Autum's voice. Looking at the straps he pulled at one of them and he let out a muffled cry. She had torn up his arm, it would hurt a lot more to break the straps than he expected.
Knowing if he did break them who knows what other issues it would cause. He assumed this was punishment for their little trip to the medical wing. His gold eyes went to the door as he heard two voices. His ears low, his guess Oskal came here to warn them about their antics.
Bella stopped near the door looking at the demon and then to Autum. Her guess that Erika was testing more of the demon's pain tolerance. It was her sort of thing.
Oskal walked up next to Autum putting his foot on the knife next to her. He kicked it towards the guards in the room. "Seems you two were having fun." He smirked at Celtic who looked to the ground.
"I'm in a good mood, Orme. You tell me what I want. Your wife can have where you were taking up quarters. Nice bed, there is a nice tub in there she can get herself cleaned up and relax." This would also get him in the good graces of his sister, but Celtic didn't need to know that.
Looking up at Oskal to find out what he wanted. "Where is the file that Reki gave you?" Celtic stared at him. This wasn't fair! Reki never gave him a file. He probably was just waving this little over his head. "H-he never gave me a file." He winced as he heard a muffled cry from Autum. Oskal stepped on her bad leg. "I don't like being lied to Orme."
"He didn't! I don't have any file he never gave me one! I swear! Stop!" Celtic cried out. Miles let out a sigh. "Did this Reki give you anything? It doesn't have to be a disk drive, you idiot! It can be anything small." Miles spoke up.
Oskal looked over to Miles and Kris. More of the new guard, it seemed they were not afraid to voice themselves either. "His lighter! He gave it to me." Celtic spoke up as he tried to move his arms.
"If one of you ladies would come and unshackle him." Oskal spoke as he moved his leg off of Autum. Kris took the lead on this. She walked up to Celtic unstrapping his right hand. He immediately started to dig in his pockets. Unstrapping the other, she stood next to the chair case if he tried anything.
Oskal watched the demon frantically searched his pockets. "No, it was here. It was here. One of your guards must have taken it! They stole my cigarettes before!" Celtic spoke up. "I-i" Celtic looked at him, he didn't have an answer why it was gone. He knew there would be backlash. He prayed it wasn't on anyone else but himself.
Bella watched Oskal who clearly was getting upset. She walked up next to him. "Com Link." She spoke up to Kris holding out her hand. Kris took it off of her ear and tossed it to the woman. Bella put it on. "Might have been taken by a guard or scientist. It might have fallen out during any of the experiments as well" she explained to Oskal.
"Who is captain on Duty right now?" Bella questioned. "I am Miss." "I want you to have one of your people to question everyone on the last shift. You will find out if any of them took a black lighter from the immortal or if they found one. It's the lighter that Reki usually carries around. You will also have another one of your people get the log of every place that the immortal has been sent to. You will have them search and question every scientist that came in contact with him and find this lighter." she commanded.
Miles looked at Bella as she barked out orders. It seemed they might have found the two in charge of this place. Jacob responded and then started to send out orders to Ryuk and Feriria. Once he was done Bella took off the comlink and tossed it back to Kris. "If this new guard is any good they should hopefully have it in a hour or so." She looked to Oskal who had his eyes closed trying to calm down.
Oskal smiled at her. "Good", he glanced to Autum debating what he wanted to do with the woman. She was trouble even with that leg. What more it seemed she was able to get her husband to disobey. "Put her in the viewing room next door. She won't be able to cause any problems there." He spoke up to Kris and Miles.
His attention when to Celtic who was shaking some from the pain of his body. "Get yourself patched up in the med bay and then return lab 013 for further instruction. " He instructed. He watched Celtic slowly get to his feet as he stared Autum lying there on the floor..
Celtic didn't look at Oskal or Bella as he stumbled past them. There was a thud behind Oskal and Bella. They both looked to see what it was. It seemed the demon couldn't take it anymore. "Erika get a free couple hands and drag him medical."
Kris looked at Miles who handed her shackles in her hands. She walked up to Autum and bent down pulling her arms behind her. There was no fight making it easy. Miles looked at Autum's face, she had her eyes closed and was clearly in a lot of pain.
Looking to Oskal and Bella as they walked passed Celtic who was out cold on the ground. She looked at Kris. "Come on let's get this bitch up on the chair and get her over there. The two got her into the chair pushing Autum out of the room.
Kris watched a couple of interns run into the room to get Celtic. Kris chuckled. "Ah to be young and stupid again." Miles chuckled. "Captain moving Autum to room 047, Celtic is being moved to a med room and I assume when he wakes to 013. " She spoke over the comlinks.
Kris opened up the lab door and then looked around. "Over here." Kris directed as she walked up to the room connected to the viewing room door she opened it. Miles wheeled her into the room. "Go find pain meds." Miles spoke up.
Looking around Kris walked up to a drawer shuffling through some vials. She grabbed one and looked around for a Medical gun. Loading it up she headed back to the viewing room.
Miles lugged Autum off the chair and laid her on the ground. Autum opened her eyes as she felt the shackles come off. Miles grabbed her arms pulling them to her front and laid her on her back. Her arms were still shaking. Miles grabbed the strap off of the wheelchair and just strapped her arms together.
Autum closed her eyes as she laid there on the floor. A bit happy to have some time alone. She winced as she felt Miles mess with her leg. She sat up a little looking at her. Miles was fixing the brace from where Oskal stepped on it.
Kris bent down next to Autum. "You sure?" She glanced at Miles. "Just do it. I doubt the Doctor wants his work fucked up more." She had to keep to a lie. Autum couldn't know who they were. Kris shot Autum in the side. "Grab the chair, who knows what weapon that could be." Miles spoke as she grabbed the shackles. Standing up she looked down at Autum who just laid there.
"Come on" Kris urged. Once they walked out of the room they locked it up. Autum chuckled lightly once she heard the door close. They wouldn't find that lighter because she hid it well in her room.
Oskal stopped outside of a lab and he smirked at Bella. "I have a gift for you." Bella looked at him and put a stick in her mouth. "What's that?" she questioned him. "Your favorite little cat has a fiancee." He held up the ring he had taken from Brat the first time she had transformed.
Bella snatched it from him looking at it. A wicked grin went across her face. " I want to find this bastard and I will make her watch him suffer. I'll make her watch all the people she loves suffer and then have her kill them." she laughed. "We need to find out who he is!" She looked at him.
Oskal chuckled as he opened the lab door. It was the lab where Brat was. "I had the same idea. The girl will lie and fight the pet collars. So we will use her friend the ratsuda. If we need to kill her there will be no loss."
Bella walked into the room smirking. She walked up to the tube where Brat was. Brat was curled up against the glass asleep. She was covered in a couple bandages and had on the oversize shirt.
"Has there been any other scientist in here?" Oskal asked Jacob who was sitting in a chair. "No, you are the first two on my shift." he stood up in his chair. "Anything I can help with?" Oskal shook his head. "Not as of now. If she tries anything and gets a hold of either of us. You know to step in."
Jacob nodded as he walked up closer getting a different chair. It would be better if he needed to stop anything. He glanced at Oskal. It seemed the bastard got older. And still it seemed to have a liking for younger scientists.
Bella tapped a couple of buttons and watched the glass of the tube slide up. Brat jerked awake as it moved. She moved away from the edge and looked at Bella. Her ears were back knowing she wasn't going to like whatever they had planned. What more she wanted to know what happened to Rin, Deka, and her father.
"Ah, you are very lucky today. We are in a very good mood. So all that we want to ask is a simple question." Oskal spoke as he grabbed a stool sitting on it so he was at her height. He watched her, it was clear he had her attention. "Bella, if you want."
Bella held up the ring. "What is your fiance's name." She smirked at Brat. Brat stared at the ring, it was so close she wanted to snatch from the woman. She had to think fast. "It's my mother's." Brat responded hoping that would please them.
Bella chuckled. "No, this ring was resized to fit a smaller finger." She brought it closer to herself inspecting it. "I highly doubt you would have done that to such an item, then not wear it on your finger."
Brat shook her head. "It was resized for her." She looked to Oskal who piped in. "Now I don't like to hear lies. So, I will give you one more chance. If not, I'll bring in your friend Deka. You can watch as we have her tortured and killed right here. Ratsuda are a dime a dozen so if I truly needed another I could get one. So choose your next words carefully my little kitty. I mean we could use those pet collars and command you to tell the truth, but you would resist probably till you passed out. And if you do that you will wake up with her head next to you." He looked at her.
Brat stared at him. The man was sick. She closed her eyes, she felt like she was betraying him. Though she was sure that he was trying to figure out where she was. He was a bit overprotective of her. They wouldn't find him right. It would be more of him finding them. So she submitted. "Cow." Bella scoffed. " I want a full name, not any type of nickname." Brat bit her lip. "Xavier Lyons." she looked at Bella who clearly was happy about that.
Jacob watched them. This was good, he now had confirmation from the girl that the man in question was true to his word. It meant this plan should run smoothly and he didn't have to worry about a last minute twist of events or backfire from him.
Oskal got up walking up to Brat. He grabbed her arm pulling her close. "Next time you lie to me your rat friend will be dead." He pulled her down off of the platform. Brat let out a cry as she hit the ground. She winced as Oskal pushed her up against the control panel. He pressed the medical gun against her temple and fired it.
Brat screamed out as she held her head. Bella walked up to Oskal taking the medical gun from him holding another to him. Oskal took it waiting for the girl to stop screaming. The moment she stopped he shot her again. He then holding it to Bella.
Bella took both of the guns and walked over to a table setting them down. She sat down on the stool that Oskal had brought up. She watched the girl on the ground in agonizing pain. She smirked as she stopped screaming.
Oskal waited for the girl to react but nothing. "Get to your feet." He watched Brat get to her feet and he grinned. It seemed they just found out how to get their formula to work on the girl and possibly the beast.
Looking over to a table he grabbed a small scalpel and held it to her. "Take it and cut yourself with it." He ordered her. Without hesitation she took it and did what he said. "Very good. Drop it and get back on the platform." He instructed her. He watched her climb back up looking back at him for orders.
Oskal laughed. "Ah, seems today is going to be a good one." He walked up pushing a button on the console as the glass came back down. "I believe we have a person to locate. Though." He looked to Jacob studying his uniform. "Captain."
Jacob nodded to him. "Yes." "I want you to order more of your people on the search for that black lighter. It's a light day today so we shouldn't need too many guards helping out with the prisoners." he informed Jacob. "Will do."replied Jacob.
Jacob watched him leave followed by Bella. It was clear the man's ego got to his head. Once they were gone he leaned back looking at Brat who collapsed in the tube she was crying to herself.
"Location updates now. I want to know where everyone is." Jacob spoke up. It was clear that it would be the best move now. Still had to be careful of what he said over the comlinks the other captain could be on.
"Zafe, still babysitting." Cow was the first one who spoke up, by his tone clearly bored. "Jake reporting, I'm trashing some bedroom, no sign of that stupid lighter." Ryuk responded. One by one they all started to report where they were and if they were with anyone.
"Xeno here with Leo. We are walking patrol B near lab 089." Zigor spoke up as he looked to Link. The two of them listened as the others started to report as well.
There was silence for a bit. "Keik, report." Jacob spoke up as he walked up to the tube with Brat in it. He was studying the console seeing if he could figure out how to open it. There was still no response from her. "Anyone near lab 064?" he questioned the group.
"I am." Quou answered. "I'll head over there right now." Jacob let out a sigh. "Where is Peterson? He is still with you right?" There was a pause. "He started ranting to one of the techs about something so I continued on with the patrol. I am fine. I am reporting out."
Jacob sighed as he should've known better with his wife. "Peterson, you find a place to do some work? Also did you finish it?" He questioned him as he stopped on a button. "Almost finished."
Jacob tapped on the tube to see if he could get her attention. One of Brat's ears perked as she laid against the glass. She was trembling from getting a double dose. Her arms were shaking, she wanted to hold her cut but she couldn't even do that. She slowly looked at him.
"Listen up, you will head to assigned rooms to hunt for this lighter. We will just do it the old fashion way of looking. Make sure you wait for the go ahead to start. Peterson, you will goto babysitting duty room 035. Zafe come to room 013. Anduo, stay with the other guard. You know how to finish up?"
"No worries, there are two still doing our bag check. I'll head there after I'm done here." Feiria spoke up. "You don't have to worry about me I got it all covered." He reassured the group.
"Jake you goto 023g just incase some idiot thinks they can sneak a cig there." Jacob spoke up as he watched Brat who clearly trying to figure out what he was up to. "Leo, Renia both hit up room 046. Xeno search 021 and Krina go with." He spoke up trying to make sure he had everything. He would wait to hear from Quou before telling her to stay there.
"The guy who owns that lighter, um we put him in 021." Zigor spoke up as he looked to Link. "Krina, question him. Decide if he is useful or not." Jacob replied. He waited for anything else but there was none. He then pushed the button on the control panel.
"Who has the master ring to your collars? Is it Oskal or that woman?" Jacob spoke up as he watched her. Brat's ears went low trying to decide if this was a trap or not. "Oskal.." she spoke quietly. She watched him head to the door to leave.
Quou walked up to the lab. Opening the door he looked in hoping for the best. Gotenoo was on the ground with an icepack on her head. Deka was sitting next to her laughing. Shiva was sitting on a stool looking over Sakki's shoulder as he was trying to solve a puzzle.
"She is fine, looks like she might have a shiner from getting hit." Quou reported as he walked into the room. "You never reported in." Quou spoke up to Gotenoo. Gotenoo sat up and moved her hand to her ear. "Uh.." she looked around. "Comlink must of got hit out."
Shiva looked back at Quou. She hopped off her stool walking towards Quou. "Are you needing her? I mean I better get a replacement if you are taking her. She has been a very good assistant. If you are not going to give me a replacement I want to talk to that captain of yours. I think he will understand why I need an assistant."
Quou stared at the short stature woman. "I honestly just came in to get her to report. I guess her com is missing." He finally responded to Shiva's little rant. Shiva put her hands on her hips and studied Quou. "Fine. Keik where is your comlink? Go find it.. Deka go help."
Deka chuckled as she slowly got to her feet. She grabbed Gotenoo's arm and pulled her to her feet. Probably over here where you slugged me and I fell on you." she contended as she walked over to a platform.
Quou held his ear as he listened to what Jacob said. "Keik." he walked up to the two. "Captain says everyone is on the hunt for a lighter. So keep the comlink handy for any updates. Also for me to stay here, in case Shiva needed any additional help." He informed her.
Gotenoo stared at Quou, it was a keyword to get ready for action. She nodded, had time went by quickly, which she was grateful for.
Link looked to Zigor who nodded. "Stay on your toes" Zigor warned him, as he tried to prepare himself. He was going for Rin it seemed. He looked at Link and started to walk down the hall. He was running it through his head the plan. Hunt was the prepare yourself and move into position. They were at that point, the next phrase he would have to wait for was 'let Rem make this fast'. It was an odd phrase, but wouldn't be completely out of the ordinary.
Rubbing his hands together trying to calm himself Zigor looked at the lab doors looking for the room he had to go to. He would have to face whatever they had done to Rin. She would want him to comfort her, which wasn't his speciality.
