Lost Island and Human Testing

[Raven]

Tabitha lifted the blanket up farther and Emily let out an involuntary squeak of fright. Tabitha's head whipped down to look at the source of the noise. She smiled. "There you are, Emily, Pride and I were so worried!" she said.

[Gifted]

Emily, you total moron! I just about had her!
"Woah wait a sec, people can fit under these things?" Pride asked. "I could never fit under the one in my room.... don't scare us like that Emily, I thought you jumped out the window!" Prides eyes were apologetic.

[Raven]

Emily edged farther under the bed, as if it would help. "Come out now, before you get stuck," Tabitha said kindly. Emily stared at her with wide eyes.

[Gifted]

Pride suddenly had an idea. "Why are you under there anway? wait, Emily are you stuck?" say yes, dammit...

[Raven]

"Yes," Emily said, the fear in her voice could easily have been pain.
Tabitha frowned. "Oh you poor girl! We've got to get you out!" she exclaimed.

[Gifted]

"Oh no! Do you think we'll need to break the bed to get her out?" Jane asked Tabitha worriedly, masking her relief that Emily at least somewhat knew what she was doing."If worst comes to worst, Cardoni has knives that could easily get through the bed, wer could cut it and lift off part... it looks too heavy to lift all at once and I donj't think my hands could take it,"

[Raven]

"How are you stuck, Emily?" Tabitha asked. Emily didn't know what to say. She WASN'T stuck, so what could she say??

[Gifted]

Pride didn't trust Emily not to do something stupid, so she intervened. "Look at her face, I think she's in pain. She looks like she's trying not to cry out, we shouldn't try to force her to talk," Pride said thuis in a worried voice. If Emily whimpered or something here it'd be perfect, but as long as she didn't say anything she'd be fine.

[Raven]

Emily squeaked again, a little more purposefully than the last time. "Oh, poor girl," Tabitha cooed. "I'll go get Tony to see if he can help." In her mind, she was plotting all the horrible things she'd do to Emily for this. "Pride, make sure she doesn't get too hurt, okay?" It would be bad if the girl were already hurt, because it would limit the ways Tabitha could injure her. Then she walked out to find Tony, heading downstairs.

[Gifted]

As soon as Tabitha was out of sight she said, "Emily, you okay?"

Tony was on the ground floor with an unfammilliar teen. She was Aisan with brown, almost balack hair that was straight as if nicely brushed, but very frizzy. The teen also had brown eyes, and kept making odd hand movements that had some sort of pattern to them.

Though it was usual for Tony to sweet-talk new subjects, it was evident he was getting annoyed with this one.
"Look, I( just need you name, okay? Can't you tell me your name? How old are you? How. Old. Are. You. Understand? Okay, you're 16," she'd flashed tn fingers once and then six. "But your name. What. Is. Your. Name. Your. Name. Understand?"
The teen seemed annoyed he wasn't getting it, and stopped making the hand movements and drew in the air with her finger. When that didn't work she went back to hand movements.
(I'll give you 3 guesses who. )

[Raven]

((greeeaaat))
"Yeah," Emily said, moving to crawl out from under the bed. It hadn't been until that moment that she realized that they hadn't been telling Tabitha a complete lie. She gasped in pain.

Tabitha finally found Tony. "Tooonyyy!" she called.

[Gifted]

After a couple seconds Pride said. "Crap, you really ARE stuck, aren't you?" Pride facepalmed. "Sorry, I thought you were small enough to get away with it."

"Hey, Tabitha," he said in an annoyed tone. "We got a new one. Can you help me with this chick? She won't say anything. I think we finally got one that's mentally retarded," He sighed.

((Tony's such an ass. You gonna guess or not?))

[Raven]

"Maybe she's mute," Tabitha cried in exasperation. "Does it matter if she says anything?"

"Yeah," Emily whimpered. "I would have thought I was small enough, too."

[Gifted]

"You think she's mute?" Toiny was confused for a minite, and then facepalmed. "Of course! her hand motions are SIGN LANGUAGE! I feel like an idiot now. Sorry kid, I don't know sign language." He shook his head. "Anyway, Tabitha, do you want her? I'm good with the one I got upstairs. Speaking of which, thought you were downstairs with Emily. What're you doing up here?"

[Raven]

Tabitha's eyes narrowed. "That's why I came looking for you. The damn kid won't come out from under the bed. And if I try to drag her out, Pride will stop me. She's becoming a pain in the ass."
