Lost Island and Human Testing

Tony shrugged. "What do you need me for? How can I help with a snob under the bed? And do you want this mute chick or am I gonna have to hand her over to the other ward?"

[Raven]

"No, I don't, I want you to take care of your pet so I can get back to work!" Tabitha cried.

[Gifted]

"Alright done. lemme drop this kid off quickly and I'll be right up," he said, heading up another set of stairs. After a minute he came back down still with the girl. "Dammit, they're full, we havve to take her in our ward. C'mon you, lets go," he directed the girl to go upstairs with him.

[Raven]

Tabitha stomped up the stairs. "They're full because most of them never get going!" she snapped. She was clearly in a bad mood.

[Gifted]

"They have Joshua in there, what do you expect?" Tony asked. He walked in and brought the girl to an empty room. "Okay, where's the fire?" He asked Pride once he was in Emily's room.
"Emily's trapped under the bed," Pride said.
"Another one? for pete sakes..." Tony grumbled. "Pride, get over here and help me lift this stupid bed. I'm not going to break the damn thing if I can help it."
"But my hands-
"You brought that on yourself you moron and don't you deny it. now get you ass over here and help me!"
"Geez, okay, fine," Together they lifted the bed just high enough to let Emily out.
((I am pretty sure Mr. Pushovers real name is Joshua but I could be wrong. ))

[Raven]

Taibtha grumbled an agreement on that, then stood in the doorway so Emily couldn't run, making it seem like she didn't want to be in the way.
Emily edged out from under the bed, pulling her legs far away from it. Her eyes were wide.

[Gifted]

"You okay?" Pride asked when Emily got out and Pride and Tony had put the bed down. "No bruises or anything?" She hoped Emily did have a bruise, it would make Tabitha less eager to do tests on her.

[Raven]

"I'm not sure. I think I have one on my head and my back hurts, but it doesn't really feel like a bruise," Emily answered, not comprehending that she should probably play her wounds up for all they were worth.

[Gifted]

"Oh, thats horrible! Do you need some ice?" Pride asked quickly.

[Raven]

"N-no, I think I'm okay," Emily replied. She hadn't even noticed Tabitha, and she had no idea who Tony was.

[Gifted]

"Okay if you're sure," Pride was biting her lip off trying ton work out how to explain to her she had to play it up. She had an idea but it probably wouldn't work. "Okay, Mr Sadistic Murderer, you can leave now," She said to Tony carefully.
"Don't mind if I do," Tony snapped back. "By the way you two got a new person in the ward, if you care. Not that she'll be any company," he smirked to himself as he got up to leave. "'scuse me Tabitha,"

[Raven]

Emily didn't catch on until Tony spoke Tabitha's name, then she winced and made a little noise, twisting her face into something she hoped looked like it would come from pain.
Tabitha glared at her.

[Gifted]

Pride started forward. "oh, are you realy okay?" she asked worriedly. "Don't downplay it, you aren't hurting anyone but yourself," Pride almost grinned at how accurate that statement was

[Raven]

"My back," Emily choked out.

"Get your filthy hands off me!" Vixie de Buffe shouted with a European accent as one of the Collectors pulled her inside.
"Quiet," the man who had her arms in his grasp ordered her.
Vixie did her best to spit at his feet. "Not until you make me!" she yelled. The man hit her and she cried out in pain.

[Gifted]

((I is assuming Emily can hear that))

Tony, just coming down, groaned. "Oh not another one? Did you manhandle her at all? If I find out she's not in the same shape as when you found her..." The collecters would know he was faking but the kid would not.
"Did they hurt you at all? Are you okay?" He asked in a smooth voice.

"There might really be a bruise there, or worse... shouldn't she get this checked out?" Pride turned to Tavitha to ask that. "If you could take her to the hospital area, I'd do it myself if I could, but I'm not allowed down there,"
