Lost Island and Human Testing

[Raven]

Tabitha sighed. "They'll probably just end up making it worse." She crouched next to Emily, who flinched when the older woman started lifting up the back of her shirt. There was a faint pink line along Emily's back. A scratch.

The Collector released her, playing along. Vixie attempted to glare at Toby, but it wasn't very menacing. "Who are you?" she asked.

[Gifted]

"My name is Tony. Tony Cardoni. Pleasure to meet you. I apologize for my rude friends over there. What is your name?" Tony asked.

Pride sighed. "Y'know surprisingly that's probably true,"

[Raven]

Tony. The name alone made her a little more trusting of him. "Vixie Tass," she told him, giving a fake last name. She was a short girl with short hair that had been dyed a pink-purple color. Her features were sharp with high cheek-bones. Dirt, ash, and blood on her face was the most prominent feature that suggested she hadn't bathed in a while. She had shockingly green eyes that had streaks of cloudy blue. It gave the impression of colored contacts that had been torn. In fact, that was exactly what it was. Her clothes were ripped, but even so it was obvious they had once been quite fine. A thin golden chain hung around her neck, whatever might have been hanging from it was tucked inside her shirt. Her nails were chipped, but small amounts of black polish with gold sparkles remained. The eye-liner that ringed her eyes was the only sign that she wore make-up, the rest had washed away. It made her eyes look more intense. Over all, it was easy to imagine her as a fallen faerie, and almost as easy to think of how she must have looked when it was all at it's best. Even with the muck and without the glamor, she was stunning. It was almost as if she glowed with some sort of commanding aura. She wasn't by any means from a poor family, and it was obvious.

"It's not too bad, but I'll tell you what, rest for the day, spend some time with the others here. Make some friends," Tabitha suggested. She wanted to smack Pride, because she was convinced that Tony's experiment had told Emily what was happening here, and told her how to get out of it. "Well, I had best be going." And Tabitha left, though several things just happened to "fall over" as she walked by. Tabitha was having a very bad day, and she was determined to make everyone else's bad, too.

[Gifted]

As soon as Tabitha was gone,Prides face split into a huge smile. "That gets you out of testing today." She said, extremley pleased with herself. "Okay now seriously, you okay? Are you bleeding?"

"Well, Vixie, why don't I show you to one of our rooms? Then in a little while me or my friend Tabitha will come get you from there. You'll be with some other girls, but you'll have your own room.. Is that alright with you?" Tony asked smoothly as he started to gently steer her towards the stairs, walking at a leasurley pace.

[Raven]

"I'm alright," Emily said. "It's just a scratch and it's not bleeding."

Vixie smiled. "Sure. Um... If you don't mind my asking, why will you come get me?" she asked.

[Gifted]

"No, I don't mind you asking," Tony said as they walked into the main room. Then he checked hs watch. "Oh shoot, I need to go, I'm late. My boss is going to have a fit. Why don't you ask one of the other girls? They'll be happy to tell you all about it," he said. He went to one of the free rooms. "This is your room, Vixie. Now I'm sorry, but I really must go. I'll see you later," Tony said, turning and walking out the door.

"Thats good," Pride said. "It sounds like Mr. Sadistic Murder has dropped off a few new people, you wanna go say hi?"

[Raven]

Vixie frowned, then looked around. It wasn't very easy to see, with her contacts in the condition they were, so she couldn't make out the finer details. After only a few seconds, she shivered and immediately left the room.

"Sure," Emily said unenthusiastically.

[Gifted]

"Well theres nothing else to do in this hole," Pride shrugged. Suddenly theywere inturrupted by the Aisan girl who was standing in the door.

"Excuse me," she said quite clearly. "Could one of you please tell me what's going on here? The rude man at the door wouldn't tell Hilary anything."

[Raven]

Emily looked to Pride. She didn't want to explain, in fact, she didn't want to be there while someone else explained.
Vixie was listening, but she didn't come close.

[Gifted]

"This place is messed up. They do some sick testing here. That's rreally all I can tell you without freaking the crap out of you. What's your name? And who's Hilary?"
"Susie," Susie replied "And Hilary's my... sister? Sort of. It's kind of hard to explain. we're really close though," ((XD))

[Raven]

((yeah, really really close x3))
Vixie frowned. She wanted to know what was happening, not listen to some crap about not being told because it was better for them.
"Where is she?" Emily asked.

[Gifted]

"Um..." Susie looked akwardly at her. "That's kind of hard to explain...."

[Raven]

"How so?" Emily asked. Vixie had all but stopped listening.

[Gifted]

Susie looked like she was trying very hard to figure out how to explain. Really sahe was trying to figure out how to explain in a way that wouldn't make them freak out, though she should probably warn them about Mary...

[Raven]

Vixie rolled her eyes. "Why don't you answer?" she asked Susie.
