Maximos ::The room itself was well lit, and by many standards, beautiful. It looked almost as if someone hand taken a princesses room from right out of a mideval castle and transported it here. Every detail was as elegant as it was extravagant. The room was decorated in shades of red, black, greys, and white. The bed alone was grandiose and huge, it looked as if Squiddly could fit his entire body its vast reaches. Beside the bed were two grand night stands, several strange painting of nothing in particular just interesting blends of color. It was a princesses room for a...Hospital Gown Guest? Not quite.:: The young rabbit didn't speak, but gazed about the room. She had never seen anything so beautiful...so perfect. Slowly she walked about the room as though she was a child at their first day of school...completely overwhelming. Her foot steps echoed amongst the room as she countinued to gaze upon it. A fragile hand slowly guided itself across the magnificent bed softly, this room seemed almost too perfect for her. Maximos Madison, take a look at the closet.::Indeed, there was a large closet in the far corner of the room, very large though its size was only hinted at by the two huge 12ft tall doors in front of it. As huge as they were the doors wuld slide open with the slightest touch and reveal...well, it would be kinder to say Marcel had outdone himself. There was a large closet reaching back over 18ft and it was filled, from top to bottom with clothest, shoes, and other pieces of femine wear. Mary wouldnt admit a good portion of the attire was hers from when she was smaller, and the rest was hand made by Marcel himself. Including the masterpiece, on the far end of the room, two outfits hung on the back wall. On was Madi's casual normal outfit repaired, and beside it was beautiful flowing dress, the kind you would only see a princess wear. It was an elegant black laced with blue and a bit of red, a full gown. Also hand made. Mary and Marcel simply watched and smiled, hoping that Madi would like her room.:: Madison froze at the sight of the large closet, this was a first. She had never even seen or owned this many clothes before. It made her giddy inside and just wanted to scream out how perfect it seemed. But when her eyes stopped on the gown it seemed she stopped moving. It was a gorgeous dress indeed, fit for a queen. But it was very simuliar to the one that Jack gave her as well. Her hands slowly examined the dress slowly as though she were viewing a piece of art. This room seemed too perfect... Beside the dress was of course her normal casual attire, the black skirt, red coat, and black tank top. She smiled knowing that they were alright. Those were her only set of clothes she owned while she had been around. But now...she had a variety at the moment. The Black Hospital kept providing her with the things she needed. She was practically being pampered where as before she fought for money, food and shelter. Finally, she looked back at Marcel and Mary. "This room is meant for a figure of royalty...It's absolutely gorgeous Marcel. But I don't think I can accept it." Madison knew she wasn't a princess or anything like that, she was a rabbit. Or even better...she was dirt compared to most people, well that's what she was told at least. Slowly, she grabbed her clothes that she previously owned out of the closet and walked towards them. "Thank you for all the hard work you put in...it's really quite beautiful...It's of course nothing wrong with what you did! I just...don't think I deserve to be in here...." Her voice sounded rather disappointing than anything. She didn't want to insult Marcel for all his hard labour. She countinued to walk closer to Marcel and then smiled at him. "It's very appreciated." she countinued and then lightly she gaze him a peck lightly on his skin, which seemed to be where his 'cheek' was. She didn't quite understand why this room for her was so gorgeous, she was expecting possibly a cage or something from this hospital facility. Finally she stood before Mary and Marcel and looked at both of them. She could only hope she didn't insult them.

::Marys smile couldnt have been warmer if she tried to make it. It wasnt bright and wide and covering from cheek to cheek, it was just warm. It was the sort of smile that a parent gives a child before giving them a piece of advie and watching their tears dry away. The sort of smile warms the heart.
She turned to Marcel and gently placed her hand on his arms as if to say "Its ok", silently. She leaned in close to Madi, looking her directly in the eyes with that warm smile. Green eyes, gazing deeply into red. And then she spoke.::
Your worthless. Your a freak. Your a monster. Your not like us, and you never will be.
::She didnt say these horrible things with anger on her tone, or on her face. She didnt say them accusingly she, actually said them kindly. And then paused, as if waiting for the words to sink in before he continued.::
Thats what your used to hearing, isnt it? Thats what you've been told ever since you became like this, right?
::She paused again, just for a moment, still wearing that warm smile, and using that soft and kind tone.::
They're right. You are a freak, a monster, and in their world your value is wasted, for as long as you live, you'll probably never be like them. Because your like us, your perfect. And here, that makes you a queen. And royalty deserves nothing less.
::She gently places her hands on Madi's shoulders and softly turns her so that she faces to the room instead of the door, and speaks over her shoulder to her ear.::
Dont think about what you have to be, to live her. Think about what you have to mean to someone, for them to make you a place like this. Whatdo you say? At least spend one night here?

Madison sat quietly looking at the room. Mary did however make a good point, in the cruel world outside her value was nothing. But here, she felt right at home. Her crimson red eyes looked over the room once more as she thought.
"Alright..." replied the rabbit after much moments of silence. It didn't feel quite right for her to be in here but...she also knew that Marcel put alot of effort into it. She turned to face Mary and smiled brightly. She didn't say much, just a large warm loving smile. After a few more moments of silence she was ready to speak again.
"I'll stay in here...Thank You Marcel. Thank you Mary, now would you excuse me...I would like to get some proper clothes on." smiled Madi as her nose twitched slightly with her words. She feeling rather cold considering all she was wearing was a hospital gown. Slowly she wandered towards the door and lightly escorted them out so that she was able to get some warmth atleast.

::Mary giggled just a bit.::
Of course, take your time. Take a rest, whatever you like. When you get a chance just take the new elevator up to the 86th floor, I'm sure Father would love to see you doing so well.
::Mary made a small wave and started making her way down the hall, Marcel did the same, simply lumbering behind her off into the darkness of the hall until finally they were out of view. And away to do whatever its their type does.::
---Meanwhile---
::About 50 floors straight up, the familiar sound of graphite against paper was heard, as a white pencil sketched away at greyish paper. Scattered around this busy table were several instruments, a compass, a protractor a ruler, and several different kinds of erasers. The Doctors right hand raced across the paper like a mad man sketching his life away. He was always like this when inspiration struck him, it raced through his fingers and his body like a torrent of water rushing off a waterfall, his arm could only dream of keeping up.
Occasionally, a few excited bouts of a laughter broke out as this creation began to exceed his expectations for it. The black light of the thunderclaps outside his window were his only light, his red hair waved back and forth being violently driven by this dark inspiration. It was as if the storm raged louder even as his movements grew stronger, as if trying to stop him with their presence.
It was as if the heavens themselves were damning this creation even before it came to be. But why? What could be drawn on paper that could scare the heavens enough for them to protest so openly?::
You call that a curse! Thunder is a blessing!
::He shouted as he sketched a wide line across his blackprints. His shout was to his worst enemy, the one being who always seemed to step in his path. His absolute most hated foe...God.::
I'll take it from you! I'll use it to shame you!
::The storm peaked, one could hear the winds lashing at the tower, the bolts striking its surface, trying with all their might to drag it to ground. But the Black Hospital, just like the will of the Doctor who built it, would not be brought down so easily. His laughter grew deep, and boisterious as he finallly held up the completed work of "art" in front of him. He gazed at it as if for the first time as if now, having excorsized the demon of inspiration and smattered its b*****d child across this page, he could see just what he had wrought. And he said in a quiet, yet so very proud voice.::
My son....
::A final thundercrack clashed outside as the doctors office went black, save for the reflection of light off of his glasses as they gazed at this greatest masterpiece, and smiled at Heavens failure.::

The door slowly clicked as Mary shut it, leaving the young rabbit all alone. Madison slowly at that moment looked around the selection of clothing. There was such a large variety, but the question really was...what was she going to wear? There was such a variety of clothing, and she didn't want to be rude to the hard work that Marcel and Mary had put in.
Her crimson eyes slowly fell upon her normal clothes that she wore back in the day, before all of this. With the grace that any rabbit would have, her body glided onto the bed as she gazed at her clothing. They seemed to be in the most perfect condition, even better then what she got them in. The stitiching was practically unoticable and the tears that was caused for her journey had been fixed. They seemed almost perfect...
With a smile Madison slowly began to change into her clothing that she once wore quite awhile ago.
--------15 Minutes Later-----------
The door opened once more letting out a large creak as though it was featured in some horror flick. It was fallowed shortly after by the young eager rabbit sticking her head out the door to look around the empty dark hallways. They seemed to be deathly silent, sending a rather cold shiver down her spine. Madison's body slowly hopped out of the room revealing her full attire that the young rabbit had selected for that evening.
A small black tank top was her choice as a shirt for this evening with her matching black skirt that covered to the tops of her knees. Long Red stocking seemed to be engulfed by her large dark ebony black boots. And finally, to finish the adoring look, her red overcoat that she seemed to wear everywhere. Now, Madison was complete. A smile formed on her face as she began to wander down the long empty hallway to the elevator shaft.
With a quick skip, she wondered over to the end where the entry to the elevator was located. A small red button caught her eye, and shortly fallowed by her pushing it. After a few short moment the large metallic doors opened revealing a brand new 'Elevator' for her to wonder into. Slowly she wandered in and gazed at the massive collection of buttons for the number 86. Her black gloved hands scanned the large buttons and stopped at the sight of it.
DING!
She was now in motion, heading upwards to where Mary had told her to check out. A feeling of nervousness filled inside her wondering where the heck was it that laid above there for she had seen some rather frightful things on her stay here. But she didn't really truly mind, it was all apart of the adventure.
DING!
Finally it came to a rather sudden stop, sending the rabbit off balance for a moment. Her but slowly back on her feet. And thus, the doors slowly began to open to reveal her next stop on the list.

::As the elevator doors slid open, the room Madison would behold was pitch black.::
Oh my, your up and about razher quickly. Come come, zit down.
::There was a small click, and suddenly a bit of light shined around a small wooden desk in the center of what seemed to be a very large room. It was about 150ft square, and easily this room was twice the size of Madi's room and the operating room combined. But it was so dark that the only way someone could tell the size of the room was by looking at the objects which reflected the small office lamps light, and where they were scattered about edges of the room. Such a tiny light over a tiny desk was hardly enough to see anything beside the desk itself, the two chairs in front of it, and the silohette of the Doctor gesturing for Madi to take a seat.
But the room was stranger, behind the doctor, taking up an entire wall was what seemed to be a large screen, divided into several smaller screens. Like a wall full of monitors, and all the monitors showed the same thing, like a screen saver, they showed dark churning clouds. Only as Madi stepped closer would she realize that these were infact huge windows covering an 150ft wall of the room, from so very high up one could see for miles, and could clearly see the ocean of white snow which covered the ground, as well as the torrent of white which blew in the wind gently falling. What you couldnt see, was the sun, or the moon. The sky was black, simply made of churning storm clouds, no lightning or thunder just brooding clouds. It was like the brooding face of a very angry parent staring inwards.
Also as Madi drew closer she would more clearly be able to make out the desk on which the small lamp was situated. It was made of several bits of wood which seemed to be mashed together and yet it was smooth and varnshined, just like the chair. The only difference was that the chair was a different color, it was a pale white and had bits of black sparced in its smooth surface.
The Doctor would wait directly beside a one of the chairs waiting for Madi to take a seat so that he could gently scoot the chair foward closer to the desk, gliding it across the cool metal floor.
As Madi drew closer she would be able to make out the Doctors face as well, the smile on his lips, the direction of his red hair, constantly looking as though it was blown to the right.
And finally as she sat, and after the Doctor scooted her chair up, he walk around and sit in his rather large chair, directly across from her. He would place both of his hands gently upon the table and fold interlock his fingers betwix each other. As his hands fell upon the table Madi's keen ears wound probably recognize the sound of something hard and heavy knocking against wood as his right arm rested on the table. And still, as his fingers interlocked in what seemed like an ordinary gesture Madi might notice that his right hand sat higher on the table than his left hand, and that its fingers seemed alot thinner than the fingers on his left hand.
The Doctor smiled, with the lamp shining Madi could see how the lens on the left side of his glasses was bigger than the right, and the many layers of lens in his glasses. As well as see the smile on his face as he asked her, in a most kind tone.::
Hov're you doing little von?

Madison's eyes slowly wondered about the dark room with curiousity, she had never quite seen something so magnificent like this before. It was like she was a young child at Christmas, finally her crimson eyes looked at The Doctor at his desk. The sight of his position made her ears twitched slightly at the idea of a random flashback. A smile formed on her face trying to ignore it.
"...I'm quite alright...Thank you for asking." respounded Madison after a long pause of silence, she seemed rather shy now considering she was facing the man who saved her life. Her long snow white ears rested contently at the sides of her head as though they were bits of her hair. The gloved hands rested calmly on her lap and twiddled a bit as she then began to make her eyes wonder about the room quite a bit. She wasn't exactly sure what to ask or anything....possibly just sit quietly and wait.
Her attention soon drawn to the large windows, the black clouds. How they brewed violently in the sky. She cocked her head slightly at it in curiousity for a few moments, and shook her head shortly afterwords. She returned back The Doctor's vision slowly and faced him once more.
"I hope I wasn't intruding or anything..."

Not at all.
::The Doctor said, leaning back a bit in his chair. He caught sight of her eyes watching the clouds swirl behind him and smiled a bit as he spoke.::
Zhey're beautiful arent zhey? Zhe first time I was up here, zhe view vas breath-taking.
::He pivoted his chair to the side and turned his head to watch the clouds with Madi for a few more moments before turning back to her and speaking yet again.::
I've been meaning to ask you a little queztion zince ve found you out in zhe snow.
::The fingers of his right hand slid to the side and gently tapped across the surface of the desk as he continued.::
Vhat vas a little rabbiton like yourzelf doing out in zhe cold, so far from any life? No ship, no friends, juzt you and fluffy footprintz.

Madison's eyes fell to the ground a little at the question that The Doctor asked. He was right, she was in the middle of no where and none of her family was about. Well she didn't have much of one anyways. Her only friend was Ryugi, but she didn't even know where he was at this time. Her eyes slowly wondered back up to look at him with some confidence, but not as much as she had before.
" I came here in search for you actually...because I heard you....you....you took in people who were different. You accepted them as though they were just another being, unlike the rest of the world who shuns people out cuase they have something strange about them.
...I don't have any friends or family who would worry about me if I disappeared like I did. My ship, I was on one...but they marooned me to a row boat which is probably thousands of miles away from here now. Thus, I am infact....alone...and I don't want to be anymore." Madison sighed alittle after finishing her story and wrapped her paws around herself as though giving a teddy bear a hug. She had forgotten how alone she was in the world, she knew that Ryugi was a friend. But she didn't really know if he was, she hardly saw him. But she didn't really even know what a friend was. Her ears lowered more so and slowly moved foreward, covering her face sadly.
Quickly, she shook her head removing her ears from her face. She didn't want to be rude or inconsiderate. Though, she was however quite frightened on how the Doctor would react, on how he may send her away cause she came for the wrong reasons. She slowly attempted to look at him with her eyes, with much difficulty but still with much effort.

::The Doctor did not get angry. He did not attack, he did not even speak until Madi was completely done, and her eyes met his again. And when they did he was still smiling. And gazing directly into her eyes. He paused a moment just like that, just to let her know that everything was going to be alright. And everything was going to be alright.
This wasnt the first time he had heard stories of "freaks" and "monsters" without families. And it wouldnt be last. And he would have every bit of the sympathy for her, as he had for them.
He smiled in silence, and then finally he spoke. His voice was soft, and kind. And his right hand reached forward to gently grasp Madi's paw and let his fingers sift through the fur, like a parent to a child. And he spoke.::
Who did zhis to you little von? Vhy?
::Yes, he meant it all. The ears, the fur, the eyes, the tail, everything. He was a doctor and a scientist and he would understand. And he wanted to understand.:

A sniff was the only thing heard while the young rabbit tried to regain her game face back on. She hadn't really gone into the details with it to anyone before. But this wouldn't stop her. Slowly she used her free paw to wipe the tears away allowing her to speak once more.
"A laboratory...called Marchiko Labs. I...I..I am not sure why they did this. Apperently it was for 'Medical Research'...but they were having alittle too much fun." Finally replied Madison with some efforts in her voice. She was still rather shakey. For she didn't even know who this man really was, just that he was a father figure to many and a doctor. A few more sniffs were released fallowed by her paws wiping away some of the tears.
"You must forgive me...I'm making a mess on your floor with my tears..." sniffled the rabbit with some efforts, her ears slowly slid forewards as they attempted to cover her face. But yet again, she shook her head trying to make her be able to see properly.

Zhere is nozhing to forgive.
::He said gently patting her hand. He kept that smile on his face as he slid back and opened on of the drawers on his side of the desk and pulled out a small black box, and laid it on the table in between him and Madi. As he did this he spoke.::
Zhis tower vas made of tearz, and sveat, and blood. So zhat little vons like you vouldnt need to cry, or vork, or bleed, for zhem.
::His right hand glided over the surface of his black box, and then gently patted its surface.::
Vhat happened to you vas a tragedy, no? A horror I'm sure. Vhat vould you do, to return to normal? To be as you vhere, after having zeen how zhey treat uz freakz? Pleaze, open it.
::He pushed the box closer to Madi, and folded his hands once again. The box would open with a his, and a bit of frost and cold air would escape it as it opened. Once fully opened Madi would see a single vial of blue transparent liquid, resting on soft cushion, with a thin layer of frost over its surface. The Doctor spoke.::
Ve took a blood sample vile you were unconciouz. Zhis "medical research", zhis is zhe work of amatuerz. Three shots of zhat zimple liquid, 3 timez a day, and you vill back to normal. I can have Mary adminizter zhe shot. Zhe shots vill be painless, but zhe transformation vill be qvite painful. By zhis time tomorrow, you vill be good as new. Vhat do you say? A little pain iz a small price to have your life back, no?

Madison froze at the sight of the blue vial. She couldn't believe it, there was a actual cure for her...deformity. Slowly she grasped it between her fingers and examined it closer. Her heart beat so loudly at this moment that she couldn't hear anything, it was defeaning. Never had she thought that this was an option, that she could infact be normal. A smile formed on her face, but something bothered her about it. Just the thought of this option turned within her stomach.
She had finally found a place that would accept her and love her for who she is, and they were now offering her a choice of being back to being a normal human being. But her mind sat for a moment not sure what exactly to do.
"I don't think I will take your offer....I'm sorry. But...this is what I've always wondered about. But...I can't do it. It's kindof grown attached to me...Thank you for the offer."
A decline. That was something she herself couldn't believe she said. But something insider her made her feel somewhat relieved. As though 30 pounds that she gained was lifted off her shoulders. She wasn't sure why herself, but a smile slowly was formed causing her two pearl buck teeth to shimmer out.

::The Doctor smiled, yes he was already smiling but his lips found a way to smile wider, and his eyes found their way to Madi's. His eyes were green like a grassy field extending on forever, sort of Marys. There was a mutual moment of happiness as Madi embraced who she was, and the Doctor proud to accept another member into his family. He didnt say a word about her apology, but his eyes did all the speaking for him. Instead after a moment or two the silence was broken and he simply said...::
Excellent, excellent, velcome...
::Like a child angry at losing a game and slamming his fist into the table, a thunderbolt angrily shot from the churning sky just as the doctor completed his sentence and slammed into the base of the tower making not a single noise beyond the sound of the thunderclap ripping across the black sky. Someone, high upstairs...was not happy to see this family grow. But the Doctor didnt flinch.::
You may stay az long az you like, do not need to zign any paperz, or give anyzhing you do not feel you should. But zhere vill come timez vhen I may need your azziztance and it vould be an honor to have it. I hope zhat is ok....?
::He worded that last statement as question, and sort of waited for an answer of sorts from Madison before continuing.::
