[Roleplay] The Rebuilding - Continuation of The Aftermath

[Myst]

"I thought you changed... I took you in when Mitch kicked you out... why would you do this?!"

 

[Beary]

"Because you abandoned the experiments. Both of you." I hiss, my finger hovering over the button.

The shock of it hits me, and I let loose one shrill scream.
"N-No.."

 

[Myst]

I explode in rage. "You really wanted to continue the experiments?! Those things are inhumane... It's just not right..." Oh, god... I hope they don't know about Sage's bracelet... and how it's been injecting her with trace amounts of serum... That doesn't count though... it adds to her powers and removes negative side effects...

(Maybe Dr. Payne knows? )

 

[Naiad]

I hold Dusk tightly. "STOP!!!!!" Panic fills my thoughts.

 

[Beary]

"You think I'm with Mitch? That fool never saw the significance of what he had created. And you say they are inhumane?
Then why are you using the serums yourself?"
My finger wavers again.

 

[toxapex]

"What?" I look to Mace as I hear Payne's retort.

 

[Myst]

My face turns pale. "I'm... not..."

 

[Naiad]

Tears spill from my eyes. "Dusk...."

".... Mace....?"

 

[Beary]

"Oh, my baby sister can't have memory loss!" I mock his voice.
"Crafty. Disguised it as a bracelet, didn't you?"

I start trembling.

 

[Naiad]

I kiss her forehead. "Everything is going to be okay...." My voice is shaky.

 

[Myst]

I avoid his eyes. "I don't know what you're talking about..." I say through clenched teeth.

 

[Beary]

I want you humiliated before your heart is broken.
"Keep denying it, but it's still true. Injecting her every day, even."

 

[Myst]

"That's not the same... It's for her own good..."

 

[Naiad]

I freeze.

... What....?

The world exists in grayscale.

 

[Beary]

"Her own good, eh?"

"No, stop!" I scream, running towards Payne. "I hate you?!"

The sharp sound of the button clicking echoes throughout the facility as Dusk falls to the ground, her eyes glassy.
"She has, maybe, a minute. Don't bother me with your blubbering."

 

[Naiad]

"Dusk?!" I run over to her. "Dusk....." I hug her tightly and begin to sob. "Y— You can't....."

"Mace! How the hell does the prototype work?!" I glance at Dusk.

There's no time.... If the prototype fails... this is it...

 

[toxapex]

Feeling the pent-up rage burn inside me, I release Sage, get up and tackle Payne to the ground.

 

[Beary]

"..Beautiful.." I mumble, blood dripping out of the corner of my mouth.

"You fool!" I whip out a paralysis serum and inject him.

 

[Myst]

I sigh. "Sai... there's nothing we can do... Once the shut-down has been activated, it's too late..."

 

[toxapex]

As the serum takes effect, I lose control of my muscles. I spit in to his mouth as much as I can in an attempt to suffocate him, then I fall to the ground.
