Liliath felt crying asleep, she needed someone to talk to someone kind. But that was not an option in this world. Well she dreamed, she got flashbacks from the lab and from herself as a baby. She woke up in the middle of the night, but continued sleeping quickly after.

Selene was shuffling in a tight circle in the doorway, then lied down, wrapping her tail around its body, like a dog would do. Seeing the behaviour that would immediately denote the concept of "sleep" would cause an observing human to look around for a clock.

The hybrid could have stayed awake and thought about what might happen to her in the morning, how long she might be there, the personalities of the whitecoats, and such. But it had been a long day. She was tired and her internal clock told her it was time to sleep.

Hopefully no one will wake me up, was her last thought before sleep consumed her.

Victi sat in her office, a smallish space open onto the hallway, separated only by a bulletproof glass wall. She'd taken out her AR contact lenses to help her focus on her work now that the bots were live. The holographic monitor in front of her presented her with her most recent data files and a very technically worded text document: her current report. They'd managed to get a slime-mold to produce a nearly 10 million lumen flash when stressed, on par with advanced stun-grenades. Simple.... and it was an absolute nightmare to handle since it kept blinding everyone, but proved that these powers could be isolated and replicated! Or, at least some of them.

As the subject escaped, and the 'capture fleeing subject' protocol or whatever it was called ensued, the Twins merely gave each other a look and shrugged. They were only given orders to subdue the subject, nothing other than that. Even though they more or less failed, they didn't really find a reason to care. Besides, they were children, what did you expect?

Shrugging simultaneously, the twins make their way down the hallway, taking a few turns until they reached a lounge-like area. Seeing a bowl of fruit on top of a counter, Yachi helped prop Dai up in order to bring the bowl down, with the girl taking an apple, and the boy taking an orange.

"The subjects don't seem too happy with us," Yachi says with a monotone voice. Dai looks at her as he's peeling the orange, popping one of the slices in his mouth. "Why do you think that is? We're just doing our job, aren't we?" Dai replies, and for a moment, the children look confused. Like they were... missing something. "Whatever it is, it doesn't matter now." Yachi says, snapping both of them back to reality.

Liliath woke up hungry, she realized that she hadn't eat for a day. Liliath climbed out of her bed and started dancing a little, she wa shungry and when Liliath was hungry she could act as a lunatic. She started jumping and then went back to dancing. Then she climbed back on her bed and put her ear against the wall hoping to hear someone

Hephaestus was technically offline, but his Hardware remained active as he transferred himself into the Facility Systems. Hephaestus gradually found Victis Network and connected, opening up a chat window. He made sure she would know who he was, making sure his username was correct.


As soon as this was accessed, there were a few messages.

0:13 ["Feeling better?"]

0:29 ["104 tried to get a little rowdy, had to sedate him. Most subjects are asleep now."]

0:51 ["Regardless, I have 104s Recovery Logs and well... He seems to have had a little 'Incident' with the Recovery Unit."]

Victi jumped slightly as the window opened, resulting in some keyboard mash that she hastily erased.

[Yeah, fine. Just wanted to get work done. Doing it now, feels good.] She replied.

There was an message icon, something from someone outside the facility, marked as "verified acceptable and safe."

Opening it, she was greeted with a short looped video of a fluffy-tailed rodent like creature sleeping in a flower bed. She smiled slightly, if a little sadly. At least things were going well enough at home, then, if she was getting pictures of her pet being cute. She sent a little heart back before closing the window.

[Good, I need the subjects semi-functional tomorrow for the next round of testing.]

Hephaestus would have chuckled at her sudden reaction. He quickly went to type up his Reply, Hephaestus didn't really have much Mail, but sometimes played computer games.

[Right, I'll be sure to have the bots get the Testing Area ready.]

[I'll be offline, but feel free to contact me if you need to. Oh, and check out the Email I sent ya.]

Hephaestus quickly set himself offline, his programming would turn him back on of he recieved any activity.

The Email contained a Blueprint, apparently Armor Plates for some of the Subjects once they were Reprogrammed. There was one set that contained room for a shock collar during testing.

Liliath started knocking on the walls, hoping for a reaction which she didn't got. She then hit the door, making clear she was awake and hungry.

Ember had been asleep for quite a while, but he quickly awoke once heard the noise. He pointed his snout upwards and howled loudly to show he was there. However, the walls of the room seemed to be Sound-Absorbing, and Ember was likely unable to hear or be heard. The wolf sat on his tail, whimpering as he was simply left alone. He didn't think that anyone was hearing him, so he simply curled up on the floor.

Liliath heared some kind of sound and quickly runned back to the wall, she hit it a few times really hard. She wasn't able to talk because she gagged, but she kept hitting.

After eating, the twins went back to patrolling the halls, making sure the subjects weren't causing too much of a ruckus.

Yachi held her hands behind her back, humming a tune to an unknown song whilst Dai was tapping along the rhythm on his satchel. They stayed relatively quiet, though, since some of the much older scientists didn't seem to like it when the twins sang, or anything that seemed to interest them, like drawing. They didn't know why.

Well, as they turned the corner of the hallway, they heard banging on one of the doors, looking at the number on it. Subject 831 again, they both seemed to think, tilting their heads simultaneously to the sound.

Ember could barely hear something, he tried to howl in the same way. He would then punch the glass in a certain way, trying to see if she was using morse code. Ember seemed to be intelligent, as he learned how she was doing this to communicate.

She started laughing (well she tried) the joy off the idea that someone could be there made her feel happy. She kept hitting and hitting. Then she heared the same noise again and she started giggeling.

Going up to the door, Yachi's quick to bang on the door. "Keep it down in there," she warns, although her tone holds no real malice. It never did, unless the subjects were being defiant.

No they were not going to take her moment of joy away. She started hitting louder and louder, she tried to scream but it didn't work she was gagged.

Ember sighed, he was glad that someone was there. "Hello?! Can you hear me?!" Ember yelled, he eventually noticed how the noises stopped. "No!! C-Come back!" He yelled, once he heard the noise again he smiled. He would hit in a certain way, trying to use Morse code.

[Where are we? Is this place Good or Bad?] Ember coded, he assumed that it wa as likely the latter. However, his mind quickly came into a blur again, as he felt it become harder to think.

Liliath giggeld as she heared a knock back, these knocks where diffrent cleary some kind of code. Liliath started scratching her head and simply copied what the other person behind the wall did. She knocked the same thing back.

"Subject 831 is a defiant one, hmm?" Yachi mumbles, the crackle of lightning dancing across her fingers, as if this was some sort of game to her. Dai's eyebrows furrow, and he looks...worried, for just a moment. "We don't have orders to go in there, Yachi," he says, and his sister seems to hesitate.

"No, but we do have orders to keep the subjects from lashing out unnecessarily." She says, turning to face her brother. They seem to glare at each other for a moment, before Yachi knocks on the door again. "If you don't cease the noise, we will have to use force."

Liliath decided to knock something else back, she knocked 4 times what she meant was 'world' .
