Luthor plopped down on the bed, watching as Pepper shredded the pillow leaving feathers everywhere making it look as though he had just torn apart a bird... he couldn't help but stare, eyes wide and somewhat... thoughtful. He was rather... tough wasn't he? He could kill chairs and pillows, sharp teeth, sharp claws... a lot of things that Luthor was lacking himself.
"Hmmm... Can I ask you something?" He asked, when he stopped shredding the pillow mess over and took to sneezing instead, "Are you hungry?"
He suddenly had an idea...

Pepper looked up after a series of sneezes that left his head quite dizzy, he rubbed an eye that was irritated by all the dust in the air and looked at Luthor quizzically. His rage having taken out the pillow instead of Luthor was probably a good thing, but now he was just ...twitchy. Looking aruond his eyes continually trying to follow each floating feather as well watch Luthor made him more dizzy.
At the question he only nodded his head. Sure..hunger...was a familiar sensation. The gripping feeling in his gut right? Moving onto his feet he squatted down immediately. He watched Luthor's every move.

Luthor nodded, sliding off the bed and started toward the door, "Your tough too... so we could easily get something to eat." Not to far from here was a place that the Techs went to on breaks, got food from the fridges and cabinets, hung out, and the like. He didn't like them, the way they always starred at him... but if he had someone with dangerous claws and teeth then it would be easy to take their snacks.
How often did they have doughnuts and stuff that they wouldn't share? He motioned to Pepper, "Come on, lets get some food." He glanced over ot Almas who was still sleeping and grinned, so long as they got back before he woke up they would be alright.

Pepper squinted his eyes in a distrusting manner, has had already been attacked by a chair and Luthor had thrown a pillow at him...though he had defeated both he wasn't sure if he liked this kid. Growling a bit he shifted from foot to foot before finally moving to follow after him. He wasn't walking normally, choosing to slink along like a cat may...it more awkwardly.
His shoulders were hunched up like his hackles were raised. This was his first time outside of this room.
"Food?" He questioned doubtful that Luthor was actually going to take him somewhere.

Luthor nodded as he opened the room's door, looking down the hall both ways before he slipped out and started down it, "Alright, its this way to food." He told Pepper, half hoping that the Techs were there, if they were he wondered if he would be able to goad Pepper into attacking them... that would be the best!
He moved along, leaving Pepper to follow if he wanted to follow. He wondered if the demon boy would... it wouldn't work with him, he was the claws and teeth of this plan where as Luthor just had a horn that he could headbutt with it the need arose.
There was the sound of voices from up ahead, alerting Luthor to the fact that there were in fact people in the break room. If had a tail it would probably be wagging. He paused in front of the door, looking everyone over that was inside. They weren't looking his way, talking among themselves, he turned to look down the hall to see if Pepper were coming. If he was then he would just walk into the room, to where the doughnuts were sitting on the counter calling to him.

Pepper hesitated again, they were leaving the only place he knew of but Luthor was going and some part of him didn't want to be left behind and thusly he quickly followed behind Luthor..even if he did keep his distance somewhat.
He slunked along his eyes taking in everything around him, ...it felt...so...cramped. He didn't like the hallway and when he heard voices he paused a low hissing arising from his throat. But seeing that Luthor wasn't scared he bolstered himself to come closer.
These...people were larger. Some part of him wanted nothing more than to latch onto an ankle and hold on. Instead he looked up to Luthor that gaze of distrust in his golden eyes.

Luthor gave a sound like relief when he saw that Pepper was there with him and he slipped into the break room, walking across it toward where the doughnuts were sitting. He gave a grin as he reached them, sure he felt their eyes on him but his spirit was bolstered having someone else with him. He grabbed hold of the box with his hands, dragging it from the counter and sat down on the floor with it, "Come on Pepper, these will taste better then anything you have tried so far." He told his companion.
One of the Techs, the one with messy hair that went in every direction, small square shaped glasses, and a pencil behind his ear was watching the pair closely, calculating every step they took. After he was done studying them he took the pencil out from behind hi sears and started to scribble down some notes on them... when he had his notes down on the paper he looked over at the one he'd been having coffee with, lifting an eyebrow.
"What do you think?" He murmured to her.

Newer to the world of sights and sounds he stuck primary to Luthor as they entered the room. There were bigger people there...and they were talking. the extra stimuli put him on edge, he kept looking back and forth between what Luthor was doing and keeping tabs on the others in the room.
When the other had gotten the box of donuts down he looked at it dubiously, that didn't look like food. He sniffed at it before taking one in his claws. It..did smell good.
The woman sitting with the messy hair technician had a frown on her face, her own gaze locked on the pair that had entered the room. She looked...miffed as if she had been left out of the loop. Her own long hair tied neatly back in a pony tail her round glasses perched on her nose as she gave a hurmph sound.
"He did it again...new ones...does he think we are stupid?" she hissed in an annoyed tone.a

Luthor picked one of them, turning it over in his hands. It had pink frosting and rainbow sprinkles, not to mention some sort of red stuff that was inside of it. He gave a smile as he bit into it and set to chewing, he had to keep Pepper around with him more often... it seemed like these two were going to mess with them if they were together. It made sense to him at least, he had no way of knowing that they weren't worried over Pepper. Instead he and his companion were being studied.
"I think he hopes we are as blind as some of our research assistants." He said, lifting a hand to adjust his glasses, "Though it does make one wonder what they are..." He felt his curiousity rising, fingers tapping against the table.
He wonder if they could catch the pair, bring them back to their lab to do some tests.

He watched Luthor bite into his doughnut before staring at his sugar infested treat. He squished it with his hands, his had white icing with chocolate stuff on it. When he squished it he was pleasantly surprised to see bright red come out. Looking at it curiously he licked it and grimanced. It was very sweet and it made all his teeth hurt.
He gazed at Luthor who was munching on his treat happily. He looked back at his own and proceeded to take it apart instead.
The woman snorted her irritation evident. "Well I am not blind...we were put in charge of looking after the facility after the professor died...and he thinks he can just do whatever he wants!" She huffed folding her arms over her small chest not caring that the misfits in the corner were devouring the doughnuts and could probably hear every word she said.
"I think its time we put him in his place...we have let too many things slip past."

"I agree, while the disapearance of a few techs here and there was troublesome it wasn't anything like this." Hunter said, making a motion at the two kids, "He could at least share what he's captured with the rest of the team." Imagine what sort of strange parents those two kids had to have? His hands itched to get ahold of that DNA... by any means. It was unlike anything they had on hand to mess with.
Luthor looked up from his treat to look at Pepper who was tearing his to shreds, seeming to be unimpressed by the treats. He finished his off before looking toward the fridge, "Maybe there is something more to your tastes there?" He suggested.
The fridge contained lots of different sorts of food, all of it labeled with the names of the owners but... he really didn't care all that much who it belonged to. It was all up for grabs for someone who couldn't read those names yet. He found himself looking from the fridge to the pair that were talking, eyes widening slightly. The girl seemed... upset about something... he wasn't exactly sure, maybe them taking the doughnuts? Well... he didn't care he wasn't giving it back!
"Lets check the fridge." He said, abandoning the box of treats to the floor and went to look inside.

Sterling gave a muffled grunt as she listened to her comrade. Yes if the boss thought they wouldn't notice the disappearance of some of the staff he was sadly mistaken. Though her temper was slowly rising as the two brats continued to wreck havic on their break room.
"We can't let him get away with it...we should confront him!' She spat finally pushing herself up and out of her chair giving the two brats a stern look.
Pepper followed Luthor like an eager puppy though froze as the woman stood. His eyes narrowed as he picked up on her anger. He hissed a warning sound so that the woman would stay back.

Luthor froze in place where he had been standing with the fridge door hanging open... and slowly turned to look at the woman who was starring at them. He gave her a look that said, 'what do you want?' before he reached into the fridge and drug out a foot long sandwich that was stuffed full of meat and marked with a name. He tore the name tag off, throwing it aside then held it out to Pepper, "Try this?"
Hunter gave a bit of a glare, "I don't get why these things are roaming around like this. Shouldn't they be in a cage or something?" He asked Stirling, quite unamused.
The small, white haired spawn stiffened then gave the man a dirty look, "My Daddy wouldn't put me in a cage." He told him in a matter-of-fact sort of way.

Pepper perked as he smelt meat, it was..different from the other smell and it made his mouth water. He grabbed it and bit into it ravenously though he spat the bread out and instead tore the sandwich apart and ate primarily the meat. He only paused when he noticed Luthor was now paying attention to the two in the room.
The woman, Sterling...was intelligent and ambitious but she often let her temper get the best of her.
"You don't have a daddy. You were built in the labs!" She snapped back at the brat before she turned to Hunter her hands on her hips.
"We should go talk to him now. I am tired of playing second fiddle to ..to him!"

Luthor's eyes went a bit wide at that, his mind going to that strange thing that the Pepper had been in. He felt his heart skip a beat... the shook his head, giving a little glare at the woman, "I have a Daddy. Stupid Tech... Almas is my Daddy." He snapped at her then turned to look over at Pepper, "Come on. We can eat somewhere else." He wanted to get out of here, away from this awful woman... she didn't know anything he thought trying his best to keep from showing that the idea that he was... built hurt.
Hunter lifted an eyebrow, wondering if it was true... if that Fallen who used to work side by side with the bothersome one was in fact used in one of Vampy's experiments... It was curious but he would figure it out later, "Yeah, lets go and see what he thinks hes up to. Using our resources to play around and make such weird little brats."
Weird seemed to weak a word, look at that scaled one... it was tearing its food apart making Hunter think of a cross between the Gluttony demon and the Wrath demon... Hmmm.
