Koorie slowly opened her eyes, her vision completely black. The motion sensor lights had turned off a long time ago and she was fully disoriented. She had no idea where she was or what that cloth was that was draped over her. Slowly, she sat up, and the lights flickered on, cause her to groan aloud and shut her eyes immediately against the painfully bright lights.

Feeling a familiar pressure in her lower abdomen, she sighed and got up, stumbling her way to the bathroom and flipping the switch on for the light. More swearing followed the second dose of the blinding light and she made her way to the toilet. She lifted the lid and was met with a pair of eyes.

"HOLEY s**t! Mother of a Clampearl!" Koorie lept back, her heart rate accelerating, and the toilet lid slammed back down. There was an Ekans... in her toilet. Fully awake and fully prepared, she opened the toilet lid again and looked down at the pokemon. She sighed, wondering what to do with it.

"You have two choices, you leave, or you get flushed....." Her voice was calm, despite how fast her heart was still going. She had been extremely surprised. The Ekans hissed a bit and slithered out of the bowel and disappeared once it left the bathroom.

Koorie rummaged through her bag once she was done doing her business, pulling out a journal and pen. She sat on the edge of her bed and flipped past some song lyrics she'd writen down.


Quote:

It's been a very long trip so far. I met with the head doctor, and my employer. While he is someone I can tolerate, something about him puts my hackles up. I do know, however, that this place is no different from any of the other places I've been passed around through.

I do, however, owe a certain guard here a favore, much to my discontent. He never seemed to understand a word I told him, and he kept driving in that same point that I've known all my life. I ended up getting sick of his attitude and slammed my heel into his toe.

Hakan gave me a different escort after that little misshap, which prooved even worse when the drowsy side effects of the vaccination. This new escort attempted to rape me... and I suppose I was lucky that Hayden happened to walk out on break and stop him. As much as it pains me to admit it, I do owe him. I'll repay it to him in my own time though....


She sighed and put her pen down, closing the journal, and stood up, going to take a shower and then check on the time. She had no idea if it was the same day, or what time it was at all.

A Meeting of Minds

Koorie sighed, flopping onto her bed and pulling out her journal. She had checked the toilet before climbing into the shower earlier to make sure that Ekans was gone. It had been a long, tiring session of kick boxing for her, but she had met with that other girl, Samantha.

She clicked her pen open, leaning against the wall while sitting on her bed, and began to write.


November 15

Today has been an upseting day. While I was out working on my kick boxing, I met a young lady by the name of Samantha Hakan; yes, the very same Hakan family member as the doctor that I'm supposed to be working under. I learned from her that not only was I fooled into a job where I will not be leaving ever, that damned guard, Hayden Rutherford, knew about this all long.

I just hope that the band will be able to find a new vocalist and provide themelves with new songs until I am able to get out of here. I WILL get out of here, even if I have to break out. The Samantha girl seems trustworthy enough, but I still don't know enough about her to fully trust her. We'll see in the future, I'm sure...


Koorie sighed and flipped the page, working on some ideas for a new song.

This page has nothing on it but a song.
Missing

Please, please forgive me,
But I won't be home again.
Maybe someday you'll look up,
And, barely conscious, you'll say to no one:
"Isn't something missing?"

You won't cry for my absence, I know -
You forgot me long ago.
Am I that unimportant...?
Am I so insignificant...?
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?

Even though I'm the sacrifice,
You won't try for me, not now.
Though I'd die to know you love me,
I'm all alone.
Isn't someone missing me?

Please, please forgive me,
But I won't be home again.
I know what you do to yourself,
I breathe deep and cry out,
"Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?"

Even though I'm the sacrifice,
You won't try for me, not now.
Though I'd die to know you love me,
I'm all alone.
Isn't someone missing me?

And if I bleed, I'll bleed,
Knowing you don't care.
And if I sleep just to dream of you
I'll wake without you there,
Isn't something missing?
Isn't something...

Even though I'm the sacrifice,
You won't try for me, not now.
Though I'd die to know you love me,
I'm all alone.
Isn't someone missing me?


(This was NOT writen by me, this is Evanescence's music, song titled 'Missing')

Two people seemed to have been writing notes to each other on this page
Quote:
Can you answer my questions this way, via writing? I don't want to have to deal with stupid riddles right now, it's been a long day.

Are we being watched? I don't see any cameras anywhere, and are they only in certain rooms?

What did you mean by that there was more at risk than your job?'


I should be able to. And that's fine with me. I'm really not up to keeping that up for an entire conversation.

Yes. At all times. At least, it's safest to assume that, as they could be watching from anywhere and we'd never know. Anywhere that...let's call you 'guests'...can venture, there's the risk of cameras and/or microphones.

Let's just say that CRONUS is skilled at finding your weakness, whatever it takes to convince you to do something, then holding it over your head. I'm assuming they promised you something for working here, a temporary job, right? Yeah, right. And I'm a Charizard. They promise you one thing to get you in here...then they drop the noose over your head once you're in their grasp. There's little you can do once it starts to tighten...

You need to keep a more confidant face, or they will know that something is happening.

If I'm technically working here, couldn't I just announce my departure? Say, for example, quit? Besides, I don't have a weakness. I don't have a person I'm close to, and my family can go to hell for all I could give a rattata's a** for.

What exactly is going on here? I didn't ask what research was going on, because I figured I would be told when I was assigned a job.


Technically, though that's probably just a cover story. If you're not actually working here and they haven't given you a job yet, then I'm assuming you got the 'we'll get back to you in a few days' story. Don't expect to see them again. Especially not Dr. Hakan. Good luck ever finding that S.O.B. again.

So yeah, likely, you're a 'guest' like the others. You're welcome to try quitting if you'd like, but don't expect much in the way of results. You'll probably get some sort of evasive response and ignored again.

Everyone has some weakness. They'll find it.

That's....a little more complicated.

Don't worry about if someone walks in, I'll eat the pages if I have to. I know that we'll both be in trouble if they find out what we're doing.

Tell me what is going on, I have a right to know, if I was dragged into this unawares and I'm involved in something I clearly don't want to be in.


There are a lot of things going on here, even some of the legitimate stuff they advertise to the public. Money has to come from somewhere, right?

I'm sure what you're concerned with is the not-so-legal portion that concerns you and the others, however. I'm sorry...I wish I could have done more. I've been trying, but...

Don't shoot the messenger and keep your expression neutral or we're in for worse than you can possibly imagine.

The long story short is experimentation. Genetic experimentation.

They're moving fast, too fast this time. There's nothing I could do to stop them, though as long as we're still alive, there's hope. Doesn't mean I can't do something though...

What kind of genetic experimentation....

Genetic manipulation. Completely on the cellular level. DNA re-writing. I don't know all the details and I can't explain everything right now, but let's leave it at they've made improvements this time and I'm not sure whether to be relieved or afraid of the fact that they may succeed this time around.

They've already gotten me as well, haven't they....

Afraid so. I'm no scientist, so all I know is it has something to do with the injection they give everyone. 'S how I know the difference between you and I and who really works here. I've not had one; you have. And I don't know how it works, only that they've changed the process for how it's done.

Maybe...you should be thankful they've improved the process this time. At least if you're still alive, there's always hope. It's...what I believe at least.

Songs of the Heart

Koorie walked into her room and closed the door quietly behind her. She put her violin away and walked over to her bed. She noticed a lump in the sheets and pulled it back, sweat dropping and seeing the Ekans again. The pokemon looked up at her, blinking at the sudden bright light. She dumped the blanket back over the Ekans, sitting at the head of her bed and opening up her journal again.

Over and over she reread what Hayden had told her. Finally, she turned the page and began writing.


November 15

I discovered today that I won't be leaving this place. I was a fool, and I was conned into genetic manipulation, and now I am stuck here. I guess it really doesn't matter, though; I have no place to go, and here I'm only under observation. I'm still unsure on how to react to all of this, but I just feel as if though everything is pointless.

I mean, does it matter if I escape?

What's going to happen to me now, what will the side effects be?

I can't even ask the doctors here, they aren't supposed to know that I know.... I should tell Sam though, she seems like she has a place to be in the world, and she deserves to know. The fact that her own blood relative left her in the dark boils my blood. I don't know if I will try to escape here, but I think that I will do all I can to help Sam. I don't know if I can trust her, but I feel a strong pull towards her.

Hayden.... I really don't know how to interpert him. At times, he reminds me so much of Toshi, but at the same time, he's one of them. He risked something of his to tell me this information, but at the same time, maybe it was really all a trap. I suppose if I keep a distance from him, I'll be ok, but I'm actually worried that I will do something regrettable should I be near him for too long. For all the time I took to keep my emotions hidden away, he seems to know exactly what to say and when to say it to stir them up again.


Koorie put down the pen when she felt something smooth and scaly slither around her waist and up to her shoulders. She looked at the Ekans and sighed again. "Why did you choose someone so cold like me....?"

The Ekans gave a soft hiss in response and wound around tighter on the girl, more so in a comforting way than a lethal way. Koorie gave a rueful smile and sighed heavily. "I suppose you can be my secret here.... You'll have to get used to being called Monty though."

Monty gave another hiss and squeezed gently, then made itself comfortable against her, enjoying the warmth.

This page has nothing but a song written on it.

Ice Queen
When leaves have fallen
And skies turned into grey.
The night keeps on closing in on the day
A nightingale sings his song of farewell
You better hide for her freezing hell

On cold wings she's coming
You better keep moving
For warmth, you'll be longing
Come on just feel it
Don't you see it?
You better believe it.

When she embraces
Your heart turns to stone
She comes at night when you are all alone
And when she whispers
Your blood shall run cold
You better hide before she finds you

Whenever she is raging
She takes all life away
Haven't you seen?
Haven't you seen?
The ruins of our world

She covers the earth with a breathtaking cloak
The sun awakes and melts it away
The world now opens its eyes and sees
The dawning of a new day

Whenever she is raging
She takes all life away
Haven't you seen?
Haven't you seen?
The ruins of our world

This song belongs to Within Temptation
