Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Your building, your colors. I don't plan to stay long enough for it to bother me." The count said simply before maintaining a silence that was only broken when they entered the room. He had little to say on the way to the room because he was mapping an escape. He saw several doors and how Octavious interacted with them. The first door would be a problems but he could steal Octavious' pass to get through the rest. Or modify one of his own but the latter would take longer and he had already had many chances to take Octavious'.

Then they were in the room and the first thing he said upon seeing the table was the most childish thing he could think of. "Oh you guys are into that sorta stuff. Well normally I would only do this on tuesdays but I'm down, strap me up!" He said the last part with a very odd confidence. He had formulated his plan. Everyone who could get here would need a pass card. So he would wait until someone less talented than Octavious showed up. He would take the card and run. But if they put one of the plant things on him he did not know how easy the plan would be. "So what's with the flower. I mean it's cool and all but normally there is some sort of giant evil lazer, so... points for originality."

"Very creative means of interrogation. Assuming that's what you would use it for. Give them the perfect life, then take it away and submit them to hell here. Then offer the perfect life back, but at the price of information. not bad, not bad at all." The Count complimented as he was strapped in. He had turned both arms sideways when Otto was putting on the metal cuffs. It was a very minor thing that no captors ever noticed. It gave in just a few centimeters of free space which was the perfect amount required to slip the cuffs.

"Oh, well that is very useful. I want one..." Edmond said. He could slip his hand out now and go for Otto's keycard but that would be to obvious. He would have to wait for someone less challenging to enter. Worst case scenario it was the girl who he had frozen that would come in next. However he had a simple backup plan. Run. though The Count hoped he would not need to use that one it was still a useful choice. "So why do all this? What's with all the chemical injections? Are you guys trying to build your own army of super soldiers? Or perhaps just trying to find out how to manifest mutations in the human body? Or are you all just into it for the information your get back? I saw the Rosie's. Aside from trying to breed your own army I see no reasons to create two creatures with the exact same appearance and power."

"Then what goes wrong with the duplicates? Why did she need medicine?" The count asked. He was very pleased with the responses. Otto may not have known it but Edmond was interrogating him. These were the same questions he would ask had he captured Otto but instead he put Octavious in a position where it seemed that he could explain everything knowing in the end it would not matter. That was when people got answers. The Count looked around the room thinking before his next question. "Who funds your guys? rosie let it slip that there had been an attack and unless you have a lot of extra money hanging around I would presume you have a sponsor of some sort. Someone who gave you the land and equipment."

"What? Blowing up doors and knocking out workers is not enough trouble. I will have to do better in the future." The Count joked as he relaxed in his constrictions. "You know, what you guys need in an inque who does not require medication to control his or her forms. That would be a much better basis for tests, but I am assuming you just couldn't find one? By the way, what was Rosie's medication we were in the room searching for it but she didn't know which one to pick. I made the call and she ran. I would hate not to know what we risked so much to get."

"Oh, but still why, why do all this experimenting? I know what you are trying to do but why? What is the endgame? What do you get out of all this when you succeed?" The count said as he began shifting his leg slightly to give it more room. It was to slight to be noticed and required much focus on his part to keep it quiet so he just stopped. "Why was rosie so afraid to come back here when she was losing control of her powers?"

"Well the cancer part doesn't sound to bad but selling powers to the highest bidder could destroy or save this world. I don't like taking those chances." The Count saw the box and his trainign took over. He had most of the answers he needed but knew for a fact he would need more from whoever was in charge. As Otto had told him, he would need to cause more problems for that. "I wwould ask you whats in the box but I fear I am about to find out..."

These were the times Edmond was glad he wore a mask and not just a hood. His training had prepaired him for minor sedatives but he could not be sure what was in the syringe. It would be a risk to let Otto inject him but if he did nto take it he may have more questions then answers in the end. "That girl should just be happy I didn't drop her into the fire she was going to put Rosie in." He said simply. Edmond's herb would be enough to repell the sedative but it was in his quiver and he could not get it without freeing his hand. His mask only had an air filtor so he had very little to fight the sedative. In the end he chose to let Otto inject him and hope he could fight the urge to sleep.
