"Well then, here. I didn't add anything to it. Enjoy!" She gave him a smile and walked to the table where she took a seat, where she watched Drake run after the new guy.
Alekssander sat next to her, sighing. He was glad that Richard was leaving. "We don't need any more trouble, whether he was it or not..."

Drake saw the images through his thoughts and touched Richard's shoulder in an attempt to bring him back. "Like give ECs more abilities? My sister had that done when she was captured. Is that what you're talking about?" Drake sympathized with this stranger, he felt the pain openly from the labs, perhaps he was hurt more, and Drake had the urge to help him.

"Your sister was caught?", he exclaimed. Then he began thinking back to seeing a strange girl that had recently been caught. He had not seen much but he saw a slight image through his containment cell. He shook his head. "In any case, yes, giving more abilities was one of the objectives...but theres more. These ECs were put through genetic modification to make them into...something else. The shapeshifters were the lucky ones..." Richard Suddenly went back into relapse. A memory appeared in front of him. He was strapped on a hospital bed, being carted through a dark corridor, watching dim lights pass over his head. He looked around his left and right, seeing people like him wearing strange devices over their heads. Some doctors were injecting some kind of serum into their bloodstream. Others were screaming in sheer pain. He forced himself to close his eyes, but the screaming didn't stop, it couldn't stop, it then changed so slowly into a roar of feral rage. A gunshot. All was silent.

"She made it back out, though. Focus, hey, come back to me." Drake shook Richard's shoulders as he shared the memories with him. Drake cringed at the loudness and vividness of the whole thing. He hated to invade on him like this, but he felt he had to. Drake let his mind join with Richard's and began to coax his fearful memories away. "Focus RIchard." Though Drake had not been told the stranger's name he had picked up with the memories and with the binding of thier minds.
((Mmx, are you okay with this? I'll delete it if not.))

((Its fine its fine))
Richard snapped out of it, took a couple of steps back to just realize what happened. "I see, you can mind read...Psychics Department I bet..." He took in a couple of deep breaths and leaned onto his lance for support. "In any case...the Projects were turning into a success. They were able to give the ECs Enhanced Physical Traits in the form of a chemical serum that modified the human growth hormone to produce higher levels of Endurance, Speed, Strength, and Intelligence...but a huge side effect was that the ECs would morph into these...chimeras...they were truly no longer humans." He stood up, feeling a little dizzy, but still kept his balance. "I'm betting your sister made it out before any of that happened. The labcoats were still grateful for the number of ECs that managed to survive the experiment. Those were then submitted to...obedience trials..." The images of torture started flashing again. Richard clutched his head out of frustration then pinched himself to continue. "Then there was an attack, or something of it...I'm guessing a group or someone was extremely pissed and struck back with a couple of escaped ECs. The end result was a mass of escaped ECs...along with those confined for the Black Projects."

"Yeah, Psych ward. But what does this mean? Are we in danger because those other ECs are out? And I was recently captured and used as Special Policeman, like I was before I broke out the second time. Why didn't the use me for these trails?" Drake asked- completely interested in all of this and maybe a little bit concerned.

Richard shook his head. "No not quite. The ECs that escaped from the Black Project are more determined to evade the labcoats after their horrifying moment. As for you, I don't think they want to use an EC who has the capability to escape from their grasp." He began rubbing his chin in a thoughtful muse. "Think about it. You were able to escape their grasp not once, but twice. That shows that you have a determination to resist their every efforts. Now think what would happen should they give you another power and put you through the enhancement trial? You have a higher chance of surviving by sheer determination and will-power alone." He dropped his hands, one latched onto the Lance pole, the other into his pockets. "Frankly put, they'd rather use one that has all his/her hopes shattered."
He picked up his lance and placed it along his shoulder, the massive size of the blade seeming impossibly heavy for his small shoulder to carry. "Besides, you're not the ones in danger for the time being. The Black Project Escapees are."

Drake nodded, his eyebrows creasing with thought. "Yeah, actually, three times I escapes. Once at the very first rebellion, then again when I met back up with my sister, and then just yesterday with the help of my friends." Drake looked at Richard quizically, "Why are they in trouble if they're so much more advanced? Are the labs making something to destroy or capture them again?"

Richard's eyes became grim. "The Black Project Escapees are considered as nothing more than valuable weapons that cannot be taken lightly." He let out a deep exasperated sigh. "You know how their main objective was to create an army of us? Those spawned from the accursed Projects were to be the strike force. First would be to change us further by giving us a new complementing ability, then they would give us the Enhancement Serum. If we survived, we would be put under excruciating 'obedience training.' Anyone that escapes before that moment must be captured...or destroyed."
He casually turned his head around to look behind him. "They've come up with a very twisted way of trying to kill us." He put up his hands in a shrugging manner. "I swear someone must've said, 'why JUST use secret policemen armed with high-tech equipment and powers, when you could send Black Project ECs as well?'"
He dropped his arms and his face formed something that looked like annoyance and pissed cross between. "You heard me right."

"Damn," Drake cursed as he looked at the labs in the near valley below them, ", and we're so close. How did you learn all of this? How long ago did you escape?" Drake then stopped himself and took a caerful step back, "Are you a Project Black EC?" Drake opened his mind and sent a warning message to everyone in the house, relaying everything that he had heard in only a second, "Caution" his mind whispered to them, though Richard had no clue he had done a thing.

"You call yourself a mind reader?" joked Richard. "Yes, I'm an escapee from The Black Project, and I have the scar to prove it." He pulled up his tucked in dress shirt and showed the long diagonal scar on his back. It reached from his tattoo on his right shoulder to his left hip. "My name is Richard Descarde. My goals are to survive in this world, and to defend the other escapees by acting as the primary decoy for them." He gripped his spear. A shadow appeared on a hill behind him.
"My ID is #664. Black Project Codenamed: Shinigami. I'm one of the few who survived the Enhancement Serum. I originally came from the Psychic Ward with the ability of foresight. That power is gone now, and I am left with the perception of Life and Death."
His Lance then had separated into 7 smaller weapons leaving a halberd on his shoulder, two swords, a broad sword, A guardless Katana and two double bladed tonfas, all of which fell onto the ground around him. The being leaped 3 feet into the air and dived towards him. He spun swinging the Halberd towards it and quickly switching to each of the other 6 weapons to make one slash, successively. After each use he replaced them together into one lance again, leaving the being to split into 8 chunks of flesh. "I speak the truth when I say to you I am not your enemy and that I must leave now to draw them away." He began walking away, carrying the supplies he had been given. "They won't chase after you. I'm far more dangerous and valuable to them.", he called out. "Thank you again for the supplies."

Drake didn't even try to do anything, he could feel strongly that Richard's mind was made up about what he had to do. Not only did the severed remains of the person on the ground prove it, but just the way he walked. Drake scowled at the body on the ground and stepped backwards into the house, "Um, clean up on aisle nine?"
((BLUE!!! Nearly the whole page is BLUE!!! I'm drowning in blue! lol. Kinda funny...))

((We kinda discluded everyone else.))
The severed body upon closer inspection, was far from human. It had pointed ears, developed scales of skin at some parts of the body and along the left cheek. Its eyes were blood red, not just from the instant decapitation, and it had no fingers, only talons. It was what Richard called a Chimera.
Richard had gotten far enough away from the Drake's base, at least a good 6 miles worth. He was now along a narrow valley highway that reached into the next town. He had forgotten to mention that the Enhancement serum only improved very few traits. In his case, he was given enhanced Speed and Endurance, adding to his will to survive. He could no longer see the future, but he could see the destruction of many others with his eyes.
"They're sending out Chimeras now...the bastards...", thought Richard. "It was already sickening when they sent out ECs."
The sound of helicopter blades pulsed from the west of him. He turned and saw 2 were hovering over head. He stopped looked up and waited for any sign of aggression.
