"Im ten right now..." Annabelle said
"But Im quite familiar with labs...
The first lab I went to was called The Third Eye...."
Annabelle looked down at her Teddy Bear.
"After that it's been quite blurry..."

Coyote · Mar 31, 2019

Kane stared off for a moment. "The Third Eye, huh..? I've heard of that laboratory once before, although my memory fails me at the moment," Kane said with a chuckle. "Ten. You're a big girl. I'm sure you've been through a lot. I hope you've been treated with care," Kane told her. "It would pain me to see you get hurt," Kane offered her a sympathetic look. "But don't worry, I'll do my best to make sure you don't get hurt." Kane eyed her up and down but couldn't sense anything immediately telling of her powers and it didn't seem like the teddy bear was going to offer him any clues. "Tell me, what are your powers?"

FeliahTheFox · Mar 31, 2019

"It's kind of complicated..." She said
"After the Third Eye finished my test I got different powers..."
Annabelle looked at her hand.
"Psychic abilities, hypnosis and morphing..." She said sighing
"It's strange."
Annabelle looked Kane and back at her Teddy Bear.
"The Third Eye said I was too powerful. It was a mistake...."

Coyote · Mar 31, 2019

Kane thought about her words. Psychic powers...? Hypnosis. That is powerful. Shape shifting was normal here but the ability to influence the mind was strong in its own right. Kane spotted a broken shock collar on the floor. He reached over, picked it up, and inspected it. "The other lab said you were too powerful?" Kane said listlessly. He studied the shock collar. "Is this yours?" Kane said looked at her with a look of inquisitiveness. "And.. well, I wonder what you mean by a mistake. Surely, you were someone important to them," Kane returned to smiling pleasantly.

FeliahTheFox · Mar 31, 2019

Annabelle looked at the collar and nodded.
"I was important." She replied
"But I was targeted for different labs..."
She sighed.
"But im still imperfect..."

Coyote · Mar 31, 2019

Kane's mind was working faster and faster. Calculating, pondering, dead end, dead end, dead end. Kane's expression turned into a slight frown as the buzz in his mind grew louder. Then, finally, it stopped. We can't control this one... was the final conclusion. Of all the experiments here, this one was the most likely to succeed in an escape. Kane was now aware that he was frowning and decided to continue doing so. "That's unfortunate. I dislike when people mistreat others. It shouldn't matter if you're imperfect. You're perfect enough, Annabelle," Kane slowly turned his frown into a warm smile once more. "Tell me, Annabelle, are you interested in making friends? There's another experiment about your age here. I think you'll both get along. And you could use the company," Kane chuckled.

FeliahTheFox · Mar 31, 2019

"I do want to make friends." She said
She clutched her Teddy Bear and looked at Kane happily.

Coyote · Mar 31, 2019

Kane broke into a glowing grin. "You've got a lovely smile," he said, standing up. "Come," Kane offered to hold her hand. "You've made a friend in me. Let me introduce you to another," Kane said. He began to lead her down the hall. "How do you like it here so far? Hopefully, not too badly. We had an escape here recently and are making some changes. I'm trying to have people be treated with more kindness," Kane told her, simply to make conversation. "What do you think? What would make this place better?" Kane asked, looking at Annabelle.

FeliahTheFox · Mar 31, 2019

"hmm...." Annabelle hummed
"Maybe like an area that looks like outside?"
Annabelle held Kane's hand, in the other she held the teddy bear.
"Or a party? That would be cool!"
Annabelle smiled.
Annabelle gasped.
"I have an even better idea!" She squealed
"What about pets? When I lived with my father I had a pet dog. So why not pets?"
Annabelle looked at her Teddy Bear and freed her mind from the horrifying memory.
She looked up at Kane.

Arachne, Head Chaser

Kane’s answer made her grit her teeth. It was everything to unbend her pride enough to stay silent. "I as well,“ was all she could muster before getting to her feet. She followed Kane silently out of the room and back to his main quarters, then took a seat in a chair. He mentioned going off for a bit, and she shifted, considering leaving. Deciding against it, Arachnid lounged, lazy and catlike. When Kane left, she stood again.

Arachnid surveyed the room, glancing at the bookshelves before making her way over to them. They were sturdy and filled with texts, though none like the library in her own rooms. Her books, unlike these, were old volumes, mostly about adventures and wars. Kane’s fit his persona well, all sharply contrasting to the muted tales of Arachnid’s own collection. These were texts. She noticed that there were many books about mantises, and she idly trailed a finger across the spine of each one. Some she pulled out, flipping to a random page and skimming quickly. With a soft snort, she snapped the book she held shut and returned it to its place.

I need a drink. She remembered Kane’s comment about the kitchen and exited his quarters, weaving through a couple of hallways and glaring at each person who passed while she was at it. In her eyes, only the doctors who made her were close to a match for her, though they of course didn’t have her abilities. Arachne sniffed as she neared the kitchen, scenting Kane’s older trail and the smell of food wafting through the halls. She entered through a wobbly door and immediately dodged a woman headed out. With a surly grunt she sent the lady scurrying away.

It took only a moment for her to find a bottle of crème de cassis. She scooped up a glass as well and headed back to Kane’s room, but changed her course soon before. She stalked to her room and opened the door, entering. Almost immediately, she swung her head to the side and sniffed. Nobody had entered since she left, and she nodded briefly. She went into her study and rummaged through her shelves, then randomly selected a book. It was old and yellowing-her favorite. Carefully balancing both her drink and glass along with her new item, she left, locking the door behind her. Only she and some other doctors had keys to her room, and even then Arachne was paranoid. She hated people having access to her most private of places and objects.

Arachne slipped back inside Kane’s room, settling into a chair near a table. He wasn’t back yet, probably checking in on the experiments he pretended to love. Even Gen hadn’t yet arrived with the girl. She sighed, almost annoyedly, before setting her load down. Arachne pulled out the cork of her bottle with a satisfying pop, then poured the thick liquid out. The smell of black currants and berries wafted out, and she closed her eyes in appreciation. Screw Kane’s tea. Pulling her book towards her, she delved into the story.

Kane listened to her as she suggested idea after idea. He chuckled when she arrives to pets. "A dog, huh?" Kane began to approach Riley's cage. "That sounds like a wonderful idea," Kane grinned happily. "It'll be tricky but I think I can do that. Tell you what," Kane said. "I'll get you a little puppy and take care of him for you. That way, I can invite you to my office on some days and you can play with it. Just make me a promise, ok?" Kane looked back at her. "Try to stay out of trouble. That means no messing with collars and breaking out of cages. Listen to the other people here and I promise you, you can have as much fun with your pet as you want and I'll keep you safe, alright?" Kane proposed. He raised his pinky and offered it to her. "It'll be our little secret," Kane winked playfully.

With that, Kane looked at the guard standing post and a sobbing Riley. Kane frowned. "Well, that's no good." Kane turned to the guard. "Take a lunch break, come back later. I'll cover for you," he said to the guard. The man nodded and promptly left, excited to get an extra hour off. "Hey, Riley. The bad man is gone now." Kane looked at Derek and nodded in greeting. "Annabelle, let me introduce you to Derek and Riley," he said with a welcoming smile. "These two are some of my friends. Derek, Riley, this is Annabelle. She's a little new here so I'm hoping you can help her settle in," Kane said. He opened a two person cage next to Derek's. "Riley, why don't you come here with Annabelle and you guys can play for a little bit? I'll tell the guards not to bother you," Kane promised. He reached into his pocket and took out the neatly wrapped package of cookies he meant to bring to Riley earlier. "Here are the cookies I promised you," Kane smiled. "I want you to share with Annabelle ok? Be nice," he said. With that, he would close the cage behind them as well as close Derek's cage door afterwards. "I'll see you all later. And remember, stay out of trouble," he said. Kane started back off down the hallway in search of Gen and Serena. Perhaps, he would ask a guard during his search. Someone ought to know.

Annabelle looked emotionless.
"I know there's no chance of escape... But I just wanna see me father... One... More... Time...." She whimpered.
For the first time Annabelle stared crying.
She wiped away her tears.
She froze.
"someone's approaching..." She hissed
"I'll talk to you later..."
Annabelle melted into the atmosphere and slipped back in her cage.

Kane was greeting various experiments as he passed by, offering words ‘how are you’ and ‘stay out of trouble’ until he arrived at Annabelle and Toshi. “Ah, Toshi, how are you?” he stopped. It has been a while since he’s last spoken with him. “I hope they’re treating you well. If those chains are too tight or uncomfortable I can arrange for them to be adjusted,” Kane offered politely. He looked at Annabelle for a moment before furrowing his eyebrows. “Hm.. I haven’t seen you before. Are you new?” Kane knelt down to get a better look at her. He extended his hand into the cage to greet her. “My name is Kane, and you might be?”

Scarlett-Wulf FeliahTheFox

"Not too bad, Kane before you leave I was hoping you could arrange something for me" Toshi stood up by the glass of his cage looking intently at Kane Toshiro kneeled down "If you remove my colar and allow Serena to stay in the cage with me I will stop resisting and do anything asked of me...." Toshiro had been alone since the last escape and was taking his frustration of what happened out on anyone and anything "Kane you know very well I never ask for anything..." A hint of sadness in his eyes as he pleaded with the man.

Annabelle ate one of the cookies and sat down.
She held her teddy bear close to her.
im not sure if I want to escape anymore... she thought.
Taking another cookie she held her Teddy Bear in hand.

Kiono Takeshi
Sitting against the wall in his cage he sighed as if he was defeated. Kiono really wanted to know how they would get through. Him and the others could fight their way out, but the scientists would have a upper hand on them.

“I know Toshi.” Silence after, he closed his eyes to pent on his thoughts.

"It isnt so much of a problem of finding the source.....the problem is getting past Kane and Arachnid to do so....I'm virtually impervious to physical damage but those two are different. Not to mention they Kane probably wou.....nevermind"

Kiono heard Kane’s name and his ear jumped. His eyes slowly opened up ad well, no matter what the girls say Kiono feels as Kane to be “shady”. Kiono gripped his fist as he could feel his arm shaking from hearing Arachnid.

“I forgot about them...” Kiono whispered to himself.

Then his ears jumped again he could hear footsteps. By closing his eyes he can visualize the person approaching using the echoes from their sound wave.

“Kane....” He whispered to himself. The guy was close and he could see and feel it.

“What are you doing here Kane?”

Kane stopped when Toshiro made a proposal. He turned to him and watched his eyes. Kane sighed. “Hm... I sympathize with you, Toshi. But understand that it’ll be difficult for me to make that happen. I’ll do my best but I can’t make any guarantees,” Kane walked over to him. He became lost in his thoughts for a moment. “Let me see what I can do, but you’ll have to help me. You’ve caused trouble for my surperiors before but I may convince them. Serena won’t be quite possible because she’s currently recovering from her injuries. We, especially I, want to give her as much space as possible so that she can get better soon. As for your collar, how can I trust your word? After all, I’ll be sticking my neck out for you,” Kane said. He thought for a moment. Suddenly, an lightbulb popped into his head. “I have an idea,” Kane walked up to Toshiro. “I’ll get the collar off you. In fact, I’ll even move you from this cage to one right next to Serena’s. But you have to make me a promise,” Kane leaned in close and whispered inaudibly so that only Toshi could hear.

“If there is talk of an escape, you must tell me...” Kane looked at Toshiro, deathly serious, but concerned. “I’m worried for the young ones. After the last experiment breakout, there was talk of regularly torturing experiments to gain information on any such escapes. The youngest ones are especially vulnerable because they are more likely to break. I argued tirelessly to stop that from happening. I’m doing everything I can to look out for you but I’m powerless if you stir the wrath of Dr. Clarefree,” Kane looked at Toshiro intensely. His eyes pleaded with him, his brow furrowed with worry. “I’m going to trust you with this Toshiro. For your sake, and for the sake of your fellow experiments. There are better ways to gain freedom.. if you work with me, I’ll help you get there. I just pray that you don’t do anything rash,” Kane stepped back. “For now, I’ll see what I can do about your cage and collar. Think about it, Toshi. There will be much safer paths in the future. I’m trusting you... all I ask is that you place your trust in me. For Brie.. Riley.. even little Annabelle,” Kane looked at them then back at Toshiro with a look of sympathy and... vulnerability. “There are things I can’t tell you right now but I promise you, an escape will bring you much suffering. There are dangers that you just don’t know about.. that are hidden. Think about it,” Kane bowed to Toshiro as a sign of respect and trust. He gave him one last look before walking away.

Gen Takeshi
Gen walked down the hall beside Tempest hearing the construction go on. He noticed familiar hair and shoes and face palmed.

“One second.”

Walking over to the scientists he crossed his arms.

“Father what ar-“ Watching his father jump from spying on Dr. Clarefree Gen watched and caught some binders and helped pick up the papers his father dropped.

Din Takeshi
“Please don’t do that again damn.” He said scratching the back of his head laughing awkwardly. “Hello Tempest and uhhhhh.... Selena?” Out of all scientists Din was true for his kindness he didn’t let science break him. Only time it did was his addiction to bring his son back to life.

“What do you have an experiment with you for Gen?”
Gen Takeshi
Gen helped his father pick his droppings up and smiled at him. Gen’s genuine smiles were funny looking due to his evil facial structure.

“What do you have an experiment with you for Gen?”

Gen looked back at Serena and then back at his father. “Kane asked me to bring her.” He stated to his father and then looked at all the paper work.

“What are you doing creeping around?”

Din Takeshi
“Shhhhhh! I’m not creeping you just caught me at a weird moment hahaha....” His laugh turned serious and he looked at Gen concerned. “Kane?” Seeing Gen nod Din paused for a bit and then broke out a friendly smile and laughed again.

“So you asked Tempest to come along so you guys can you know... Cross breed!! Get me some early grand children my son!”
Gen Takeshi
“Wrong moment huh?” Gen said smiling again at his father then stared back at him after he had mentioned Kane his dad got serious. Out of no where Din started acting himself again laughing and what not.

Gen smiled at his father and then his face turned red and shocked from his father’s words.

“Dad!!?!?! Come on now cut it out!” Gen was embarrassed but it didn't last long till he got serious again.

“I got to talk to you after I’m done with this.”
Din Takeshi

Din stopped laughing at Gen and pushed his glasses up so the glare from the light his his eyes.

“Sounding from the tone of your voice it seems serious. I will try and finish this as soon as possible then.”

Tempest (Head-Chaser)~
As they continued meandering down the hall, it appeared that they came upon a scientist peering into Dr. Clarefree's office. But it was apparent that Gen knew this man too well. It was his father after all. Tempest could see a few similarities between father and son, but it was still hard to believe. The young woman continued to be silent as Gen went to speak to him. Thus leaving her in charge of watching Selena.

Though they weren't far enough away for Tempest to not be able to hear them. Dr. Takeshi questioning why his first born had an experiment with him, Gen's explanation, even the mentioning of her being with him. When she heard his comment about grandchildren all she could do was tilt her head a bit and raise a brow. "With all do respect, I don't believe I'm your son's type... let alone anyone's..... so that such thing won't be happening." Her response was rather blunt, though she didn't seem to be as embarrassed as Gen. If anything she was confused.

But it seemed that her fellow chaser needed to talk to the doctor later. Whether or not she'd feel like joining then too Tempest had not been decided.

As Kane walked away from Toshiro, he ran across Kiono. “What am I doing here?” Kane repeated his question. He smiled. “Well I was just doing some business and stopped by the cages along the way. I figured I could stop to say hello to some of you,” Kane told him. “Besides,” Kane chuckled, “I promised Riley to bring her cookies. I couldn’t go back on my word or Riley would never forgive me,” he joked. “I hope you’re doing well, Kiono.”

Shiloh "Shy" Adler

Location: Cages
Mentions: Kane (

Coyote )
Interactions: Derek (

BloodWolfRising ), Riley (

Texangamer ),

At Riley's small but scared voice, a pang of both sadness and anger flashed through Shiloh's body. She was an adult, she could take the terrible things the cruel people of this place but her through. But Riley, and many other experiments, were children. They should be free, playing outside, eating ice cream, discovering the world. Instead, they were stuck here like her, a fate they didn't deserve. Shiloh knew they needed to come up with an escape plan, and would happily slash the throat of every scientist and chaser just to do so. These kids deserved better.

Shiloh briefly wondered what the outside world was like. Having been created in the Lab, she had never really been out in the world before. Every now and again she caught glimpses of the colorful world outside the dingy pale walls of the lab through a window. But it wasn't the same. She longed to shift into an owl and explore the clear blue sky. Or maybe stick to sprinting along the grassy grounds as a grey-white wolf. Though her shifts were dangerous to her health, she would rather shift a million times than be stuck in this place forever.

At Riley's pleading question, Shiloh turned her icy gaze back to the guard. Derek's words and tone were still tinged with concern, but Shiloh put that notion aside. She could take care of herself after everyone else was okay. With rage boiling her blood, her fingernails extended into claws, sharp and deadly. The blue-haired mutant was about to taunt the guard in hopes of him getting too close to her cage when another one of the scientists entered the room.

Shiloh immediately recognized Kane, the claws receding into normal fingernails once more. He seemed calm and kind, telling the guard off before bringing Riley a sweet treat. As much as Shy knew cookies could never fix all of their problems, the nice gesture would most likely be enough to distract the girl for a moment. She wasn't sure if she could trust Kane, he was one of the scientists after all. Nevertheless Shy briefly offered Kane a thankful nod, whether he saw her or not. For now, her group was at least okay.

With the adrenaline being metabolized by her body, the pain of her wounds began to reveal its full effects. Shy winced ever so slightly, still intent on not letting the others see her week. She took a moment to assess the injuries, trying to determine the worst of the bad. Only two were fairly deep and still dripping blood, though only slightly. The puncture wounds in the perfect pattern of a hyena's jaws dotted her forearm, while five long slashes created by the claws of the Bengal tiger created parallel cuts from the outside of her shoulder to the center of her collar bone. Little could be done about the cuts. Shiloh, however, ripped a piece from the bottom hem of her shirt to tie around her forearm in hopes of stopping the bleeding.

"I'll do it....if I hear anything I will report it, besides I already lost my child and mate to the previous attempt" Toshiro would indeed report anything he hears and do as kane had asked while his fingers traced over the scars on his chest. "thank you for taking my proposal under consideration Kane, we cant have the little ones getting killed now can we?" a slight laugh escaping his lips at the thought of having his colar removed and getting to be closer to Serena. He actually felt happy for once in his life. "I hope one day we can all experience some sort of freedom one day, maybe they'll build us a large terrarium so we can atleast have a false sense of freedom, you know?" waving to Kane before laying down, a large grin on his face, excitement and joy actually coming back to him.

Annabelle sighed and walked down the hall.
She didn't know what the real world was like.
She looked over at the vent in the roof.
She used hypnosis to make sure the gaurds didn't see her as she floated up to the vent.
She peeked through the vent and saw a big white dot.

Rapror Augustine · Mar 31, 2019

All Violet could give as a response to Raven’s proposal was a a weak smile and nod as the poison numbed her throat. In fact the medic’s proposal to rest seems very tempting right now, so she might as well humor her overseer while she has a chance to rest. “What did you do on your trip?” The girl asked in sign as she slipped into the sheets wondering what Raven did during that time, though she also wished to know where the doctor went as unlikely as she was to be told. Yet Violet didn’t ask about that half as she wanted to see all of these things for herself once she and Serena finally broke out, once she finally saw her family one last time. She then let out a peaceful sigh and started to get comfortable, as Iris came finally decided to come out of hiding from wherever she went off to back when the chasers had caused a scene by the cages.
