Shenzi followed after him with a sardonic grin, picking up her two bags and slinging her carry-on over her shoulder as she hopped down from the copter, sizing up the white haired man. White hair. She'd never seen real white hair except on old people, but this guy didn't have any wrinkles; special dye? She'd definately need to get some of it, if that was the case.
Dropping her bags on the ground, she stretched her arms up, listening to her muscles crack and pop. "So what the hell is this rehab, anyways? A rehab with medical testing?" She asked, flipping her hair over a shoulder.

Sabin smirked and shook his head with a chuckle. "Guess you don't need my help getting your things out of the 'chopper. My name is Dr. Sabin Duvert, and yes, I suppose you could say that's who I am." He responded to Miller.
"Go ahead and put your bags in the back of the jeep, and I'll drive the two of you to the main medical center. Along the way I'll be happy to answer any questions the two of you have, and try to explain how things operate around here."
Sabin gestured to the jeep and after giving James a nod, he walked over to the driver's seat.

Miller nodded and picked his bags up again shuffleing over to the back of the jeep opening it up tossing the bags in. He moved around to the side leaning against the jeep watching Sabin and Shenzi again. "This is by far the strangest place to have a medical facility or a rehab clinic. Feels like the middle of the ocean on a really big rock."
With that said he opened the jeeps back door climbing in to wait for the other two to get in.

Shenzi tugged her backs to the jeep, dropping them in the back before climbing over the bags and sliding into one of the seats. "Okay, first off, what the hell is there to do here?" She asked, pulling a lighter out of her pocket and lighting the cigarette, despite the chewed up end.

Sabin gunned the ignition and plucked the cigarette from Shenzi's mouth after she lit it.
"First off... let me reiterate that you are here for our rehab clinic. Now we don't expect you to quit cold turkey... but if you can obstain from smoking in the jeep..? Thank you."
Tossing the cigarette onto the wet dirt road, Sabin headed off down the narrow dirt road like a shot out of a cannon and a grin on his mouth.
"And Mr. Milano, is it?" He grinned, the wind whipping his hair back "You mgiht say that that is precisely where we are. Only it's a very lush rock, and with some great people. And there is plenty to do to keep you occupied, Ms. Thompson. Video games, entertainment room, sports, and... even a Halloween party coming up!"

Miller kept his mouth shut for now, but he was glad Sabin stoped Shenzi from lighting up, he hated the smell of smoke in closed spaces.
"Miller, please, but yes thats me." He chuckled quietly at the mans breif summery of the island. "So there's other people doing the medical testing program and people in rehab as well?" His face seemed to light up a bit at the mention of video games, a party wouldn't be that bad. Hell it might actually be fun if he found some one to talk to.

Shenzi glowered at Sabin when he took her cigarette, though he had already turned around to resume driving. "Hmph." She had crossed her arms, though at the mention of a halloween party, she immediatly perked up. "Really?" Shenzi was excited, already thinking of which of her concert outfits'd work best with it.

"Yes indeed!" He grinned, the jeep bounding down the road faster than seemed safe for the narrow jungle road. Rainwater-filled potholes splashed as the tires hit them, nearly sending the muddy water into the open-aired cab.
"There are around seventy residents here for rehab and medical studies. This is one of Feral Labs' premier medical research facilities in the Caribbean."
At the rate Sabin was driving, it wasn't long before the large Feral Labs gate loomed into view - bearing the logo proudly. It swung open, allowing the jeep passage into a parking lot in front of the facility itself.
Killing the engine, Sabin slid out of the seat and opened the doors for them. "You can go ahead and leave your bags in the jeep. I'll be driving you out to your rooms as soon as we finish updating your boosters with the vaccinations against the island cocktails."

Miller whistled softly, 70 some other people where here on an island this big? No way some one could keep track of that many patients not to mention staff they needed!
Miller turned to look at Shenzi and shrug helplessly, it seemed like there was no turning back now. All there was left to do is enjoy the ride and wait to see what would happen next.

Shenzi frowned as the jeep stopped. Vaccinations? Didn't mention anything about that before, though it does make some sense... She thought at she hopped out of the jeep. "Alright..." She said reluctantly; she liked piercings, but that was physical stuff to her body with needles, stuff she could see. Putting a needle in her arm didn't sound too enjoyable.

Sabin just smiled to himself at the silent winces from the two new subjects. He had yet to see anyone who didn't at least grimace when they heard that they'd have to get a shot.
"Well, it's not too much at least, and then I'll let the two of you settle in tonight in your new quarters before getting started wtih either of your programs."
He waved for them to follow him through the doors of the lab, through a lavish lobby, and then down a hallway to an elevator.
Stepping into the lift, he nodded to them, and spoke aloud "Floor 8." Before the machine lurched into motion.

Miller leaned over to Shenzi punching her lightly on the shoulder, "Com'on it's either a little shot or getting horribly sick from island fever. Besides your not the one being put on experimental medication."
He turned about following after Sabin again looking every which way trying to find any sort of detail or information about the place. His biggest concern though was his payment, but he would worry about that latter. Of course judgeing by the voice activated elevator they had plenty of money to pay for his testing.

Shenzi followed him, her head craning back and forth to look at everything; it all looked so facny, especially the elevator. If she went somewhere like this in New York, she'd be kicked out in two seconds flat.
She mumbled to herself under her breath; it was cold in here. Rubbing her hands up and down her arms, she watched the doctor, Sabin. He looked young, mid thirties at the oldest, but he had the hair of a geezer. What was up with that?

"The man has it right. Not even really much of a decision when you think about it." The elevator lurched to a stop almost as soon as it had started to move, the doors opening up into a pristine medical examination room.
Sabin gestured inside with a genial smile before heading to his favorite part - the decision for the serums.
For one, there was amost no decision at all. He had just recently finished one of his serums. It was splended, elegant, and all of the predictions showed that it should work perfectly. It wasn't as complex as some of his other directed combinations, and should be an excellent thrid test that didn't even have the extra... complications... that Richard's serum had. It was just a matter of deciding which of the pair was the "lucky" one.
For the second, in the absence of any of his experimental serums, he grabbed one of the birds. They had been pushing their development recently, and Moreau would probably be pleased with the choice. After all, it looked good next to the ... griffon.
Filling two syringes, and readying alcohol-soaked swabs, Sabin took the first vial - the bird, and looked at them with a smile. "So, who first?"

Miller shrugged helplessly again following behind Sabin eyeing the serum as he set it up. It looked harmless really, just a simple needle and nothing else right?
He looked at Shenzi one last time before walking up to the doctor and holding out his right arm. "Hit me I guess... just a needle right?"
