Lily sat in her fathers office with tears in her eyes. How could he have done this? She could almost understand the adult volunteers. The government would want to create supersoliders. If they could do that by enhancing peoples psychic abilities they were willing to fund the project. But she could never forgive him for the children. Children he abopted, experimented on, and then sent away. They had little to no training on how to use their abilities, how to protect themselves, or how to overcome the side effects of using their abilities. Thanks to her fathers research Lily had more money then she knew what to do with. The military was still looking for the supersoliders so they were willing to help Lily search for the others. "Some of them will come on the own Ryland. We need prepare the house. Security is going to be super imporant to many of them."

As all this happens, on the hall outside of the office door, Lucas is casually following/chasing after Milx, his pet rat.

*talking loudly*
MILX, COME BACK HERE! FOR THE MILIONTH TIME, DON'T WANDER AROUND WITHOUT ME, IT MIGHT BE DANGEROUS, PLEEEASE!

Passing by Dr. Whitneys office and hearing the crying, Lucas stops and listens for a second, then gently knocks on the door.

*knock knock knock*
Uhm, doctor...uhm...M-Miss Lily? Is everything ok?? Why are you crying? ...then waits patiently for a reply/reaction

A couple guards were dragging a young man to Lily's office. a wolf dog was growling at then. Jed tries to headbutt one of them before his dog bites them.

(ignore this please)

[Zionga]

Four guards were escorting a young man in to the mansion that man in question was Kain Lazlof. Kain almost looked like he just got out of prison that was because all the cuffs he had on. As Kain got walked up to the entrance of the mansion he whispered to himself "Old home sweet home." The reason why he was being escorted and had all these cuffs on him was because a day or two ago Kain had lost control over his power and went into a berserker rage destroying some cars in the process.

How long had it been since he was sent away? How long had it been since he could sleep a full 8hrs and not worry about waking up in a panic cause something was trying to murder him? None of these questions could be answered by Chris but he knew the one person that could or at least majority of them. "Doc" he would say as he leaned against the bus stop and gathered himself before taking off.

Chris would check the time on one of the nearby electric billboards. "4:56, if I start walking now maybe I could get there by 10" he muttered to himself before popping 1 of his last 4 extra strength caffeine pills. Thankfully at their best they could keep Chris awake for a good 8hrs, but they were being used on a consecutive basis so they were far from their best and he felt the sleep approaching.

After walking a few hours Chris saw the mansion and began to run as best he could but his body was beginning to lag due to sleep deprivation. "Cmon push push push Chris you can you ca..." and just as he neared the door of the mansion his body would slam into it as he fell into a state of deep sleep.

Lily straightened. She rubbed the tears from her face. "I'll get it. You take all the time you need." Ryland opened the door to see the younger man there. He gavery the boy a reassuring smile. "Lily is fine Lucus. She has just been watching some of her fathers tapes. She wants to identify all the orphans that he experimented on." Which was proving hard. Most of the orphans were in the 20s. All the not and videa were coded so they had to uncode the name then try to find the person. It was taking longer then they had hoped. "Excuse me Lucus."

Ryland headed out of the room. He had felt someone approaching the house. If he hadn't beem so close to the front he might not have noticed but luckily he had been in the office but if he hadn't been then sone one else would have. Luckily it wasn't easy to break in. He quickly made his way to the door. He sighed when he saw a younger man passed out there. He carefully began pullingerie the younger man into the house.

@KatherinWinter
As Ryland exits the office, "Yes sir, i understand." *while looking down at the floor* {hmm...i wonder why he keeps calling me Lucus...must be some weird accent or something...oh well}. Lucas turns around and slightly opens the door.
"M-Miss Lily..I know it's not easy taking all of this in, but..what you are doing..giving everyone a second chance, that's..just wonderful. On behalf of everyone...THANK YOU!" *smiles broadly* "If..if there is anything i can do to help, p-please let me know right away! *waits for a response/reaction*

[Zionga]

The guards knocked on the door of the mansion then proceeded to uncuff Kain and leave him standing there at the door. While the guards started to return to the car in which they came here Kain was thinking. I wonder if anyone will even remember me. That was the sole taught that was on Kain's mind. Now he stood there waiting for someone to open the door or that was until he noticed an older man standing there. "Yo you one of the assistants ?" Kain asked the older looking man.

Jed was being driven by his caretaker. "This Lily will be able to help you" His caretaker said before sighing. They pulled up to the mansion. They get out and walk to the door seeing someone at the door. "why is there someone at the door?" Jed asked as he goes to wake him up.

[DisguisedDemon]

There seemed to be quite the commotion at the door when Camille pulled up. Was she the only one to drive themselves? There appeared to be more cars dropping people off, but that didn't bother her much. She'd rather be able to leave the grounds, but to each their own. There seemed to be an older male and two (?) younger males hanging around the door. The two younger guys seemed a little... Off? She didn't know how to explain it, but she kept a bit of distance between them. "Excuse me? Are we allowed to go inside yet?" Was the older one dragging one of the younger men in the house? She hadn't noticed that previously and she was honestly considering getting back in her car.

@Kibaro
Lily wiped her eyes. Ryland was right. Now was not the time for tears. She took a deep breath. There was plenty of time to morn for those that were lost. Right now she needed to focus on those that were here. She gave Lucas a shaky smile. "Thank you for asking Lucas. It is important that we all pull together now. A lot of people are going to be after us. Some good but most will want our abilities for evil."

@Zionga
Ryland gave him a wary smile. One that spoke of sorrow. "I suppose you could say that. I am Lily's fiancée. Welcome back. The mansion isn't what you remember. That is if you remember. We've discovered most don't. What's your name son?" He studied the younger man. He wasn't like Lily. He couldn't predict the future. He could sometimes get vibes. But his power didn't seem to be giving him much today. "Come on in. The doors are always open to Whitney's victims. Who are you?"

@KatherinWinter
"I..feared as much..but I'm sure we'll manage, especially with the help that's being offered through this mansion {despite its unpleasant past...} *smiles*, WE'll do our best to get as many as possible and not let the baddies get to them first!......That being said..I don't expect everyone to want to come here, some..actually do like the power they were given and will probably use it for less ideal reasons..."*sighs*

As Lucas was talking trough the slightly opened door, Milx returned. He started climbing Lucas's pants and made his way up to the shoulder of his friend where he started squeeking

*chitz chitz chitz*
*turns his head to Milx* "What is it boy?" then notices someone is standing behind him...looks back to see who it might be then returns his gaze towards Lily.."M-miss Lily, i think you have another visitor" as Lucas slowly pushes the door to open it, revealing a boy (@Lord-Of-Frozen-Flame), "W-well then, i'll let you two to your business. H-have a good day M-miss Lily" as he bows his head, turns 180 degrees, meets @Lord-Of-Frozen-Flame's gaze, rapidly looks to the floor "H-h-hi." and without a second to lose goes on his way, out of the hall and out of everyones sight, most probably to his room to gaze out the window at the noise of cars outside.

@KatherinWinter @DisguisedDemon

Kain looked at the man who introduced himself as Lily's fiancée. " Nice to meet ya Lily's fiancée, I'm Kain." Kain said as he smiled a little then he noticed the girl who had just arrived, Kain taught that he should probably make some friends here. "Hi I'm Kain what's your name miss?" Kain said with a gentle smile.

[DisguisedDemon]

Victims. Camille didn't like to think of it that way, it just brought up bad feelings. She's different now, but she wouldn't say she's worse than she was before the doctor. She went through a time of considering herself a victim and hating anything that reminded her of Dr. Whitney, but she realized that wasn't good for her and she needed to move on. "Thanks." She smiles and moves her way in to the room slowly. "I'm Camille, it's very nice to meet you both. Do we have a room we'll be staying in or... What should we do? It's weird to be back here and I honestly don't know what to do; we didn't have free time like this before."

This Chris's worst fear, he had fallen asleep but it was no ordinary sleep his body was pushed beyond its limits thanks to the pills. This had not caused a sleep so much as his body revolting and shutting down when he could go no further.

DREAM SEQUENCE
He laid in a pit of utter blackness nothing could be seen but EVERYTHING could be heard he called out into the void and he prayed that whatever answered him was nothing malicious. A small child engulfed in the brightest light yet wore tattered clothing identical to what Chris wore looked at him and said but one word. "Run" and seconds after the word was uttered a hand grabbed the boy and squeezed.

In those moments a bone chilling blood curdling scream was heard as the faint sound of crunching bones followed. As Chris turned to run he slipped in a pool of blood and as he looked around he no longer saw the hand or the body that should have been left of the boy. He felt something begin to squirm in his hand, but no recollection of picking things up and as he opened his hand he saw the boy broken and damaged.

(He was the hand himself and the boy in short telling him to run away from himself and what he was capable of. But in turn gaining strength enough in his grip alone to break bones of any limb he grasped like a twig, but also a fear of himself unable to look at his own reflection without being reminded of what happened)

Slowly coming to hrs later. Chris would look around at the decor of the room he was taken to and look around until he found an able bodied person. As he made his way down the hall this became a bit easier as there seemed to be a conversation happening. Leaning against the wall he saw one of the people exit and they spoke to him after bowing? This confused Chris “He didn’t look at me like a junkie” He thought to himself. and before allowing @Kibaro to leave he would smile a weak smile and nod back. Before heading into the office. “Go..good afternoon my name is Chris I was looking for Dr. Whitney have you seen him I need…I was hoping he could help” Chris spoke his voice still a bit shaky and not definitely sure as to who the woman was @KatherinWinter he didn’t talk to much about why he needed Dr.Whitney’s help.

@DisguisedDemon@Zionga
"My name is Ryland. I am Lily's fiancé. I am one of Dr. Whitney's military volunteers. Your right things will be very different now. The first thing you need to do is find a room. There are plenty to choose from. Most of the second floor is bedrooms. You can have any room not in use. We ask that you mark your door somehow. Especially if you don't want people accidentally walking in on you. After that we will gather in the war room to discuss plans.

@Lord-Of-Frozen-Flame@Kibaro
Lily nodded to Lucas. He was a good kid. Most of the kids in the experiments were good kids. She wasn't naive enough to think there weren't bad seed. Some who had been pushed towards using their abilities for evil. She would help the ones she could but she knew that she couldn't help everyone. She blinked in surprise at the younger man's words. "Umm...I'm sorry. But Dr. Whitney has passed on. I'm his daughter. Maybe I can help you."

[Lord-Of-Frozen-Flame]

“He what” Chris cried out “No, no, no, this isn’t good he helped me and he made them not as bad as they could get I need…you don’t understand, he did things to me, to my mind and he’s the only one that can make them stop” Chris said pacing back and forth removing his glasses and rubbing away the tears that were beginning to form at the thought of him never being able to sleep like a normal person again. “Forgive me I’m sorry it’s just I need sleep but I can’t sleep and I really need these pills he had given me I ran out and they help to keep me awake” he said at this point he had begun to ramble nervously at lily

[KatherinWinter]

@Lord-Of-Frozen-Flame
Lily sighed. "I'm sorry. But what my father did to you can't be undone. Once the mind has been opened the way yours has it can't be closed again.I am doing my best to help those my father experimented on. I need to know your bame. Then I might be able to find your file. Might being the key word. The files are coded and I haven't uncode most of them. I think I know what pills you're talking about. But you shouldn't take thrm continously. You need sleep."

[Lord-Of-Frozen-Flame]

"Thank you my name is Christopher Holloway and i would really appreciate your help but you gotta understand i cant sleep everytime i sleep there is a chance i could die. i dont know what he did but i...i please i need those pills until you can figure something out it will make coping a bit easier please" He pleaded as he was deathly scared of sleep.
