"Most excellent Marshall. That is beyond my expectations. I will need to get more weights to really test your limits. Go sit while the others try their strength." The scientist clapped clearly pleased. Such wonderful result. He would be able to use them for many missions. The chances were almost limitless.

Marshall again dropped the waits before looking back at the scientist. "I want my damn tablet old man." He said before flying up to the rafters and finding a nice shadowy spot to hang up side down. To be honest Marshall's legs felt like they were on fire, running then picking up weights was not on his day's to do list.

[KatherinWinter]

"Keep you the good work at you'll get it." The scientist promised vaguely. He had already dismissed Marshall from his thoughts. He was watching Roxy bend over to pick up the weights. He was sure even enhanced she wouldn't be able to lift them, but he would enjoy watching her try.

Roxy had only a vague idea of how to lift the weights. She had seen it done on TV. She wrapped her hands around the bar and tried to lift it straight up. To her surprise it lifted pretty easily. Sobeasilybshe almost lost her balance.

Tsukune looked from the scientists to the hole in the wall, gesturing to the hole he'd just punched. "But I....." Sighing, Tsukune resigned himself to picking up weights. Walking up to the rack, he picked up 500 pounds with his left arm, lifting it easily. He threw it up and down, catching it with ease. In fact, he was having a hard time believing it was 500 pounds in his hand, and not 5. "Well, I guess I can lift this pretty easy." Tsukune picked up another 500 pound weight in his other hand, and lifted them up and down. In fact, they were quite light, and he was having no trouble whatsoever.

James walked into the gym late. He didn't really care though. The longer he could go without personal interaction, then better. He glanced around as he walked into the gym, almost baring his fangs as he walked in because he despised other people. Being part snake, he knew he wouldn't be able to pick up the 500 lb weight they were picking up. So he didn't even bother going over to the scientist.

[KatherinWinter]

Since the 100 lbs went so well Roxy decided to try her luck with the 200 lb weights. Unfortunately she couldn't move that weight. Figuring that was good enough Roxy went to sit on the sit lines.

((Still room to jump in without ruining the flow?))

((Go to the OOC.))

John is escorted into the gym. A look of shame on his face for being late, the look doesn't last long as he realizes its all running and weight tests today. He forgets his place for a few moments as he blurts out "Should have stayed in bed" he immediately regrets the comment as it comes out, That's gonna cost me he thinks to himself. John approaches one of the scientists and in a monotone voice asks "So Sir what do you want me to do?"

[KatherinWinter]

"You will have to do your running later." The scientist grumbled. He hated not having his data in a timely matter. But he only had so much control over when his experiments were stable enough to move to the next step of the program. "You might as well start on the weights."

[Johncrucible]

"Yes Sir, right away Sir" John his it as best he could, but couldn't help but let a little sarcasm slip into his words. The 200lbs would be his first try. In prison he could bench 200lbs barely, so he was eager to see the improvements from the program. Deep breath and..Lift, John was shocked at how light it felt. "Not bad" he said in triumph, placing the weight back down. Feeling proud of his new strength John approaches the 300lbs weight, With a minor groan he lifts it above his head and put it back down on the floor. With pride in his voice he returns to the scientist "300lbs is close to my limit Sir, I might be able to do 350 if it where life or death though I might pull something If it gets any heavier.". With that out of the way he moves off to the side to lean on a wall and watch the rest of the subjects strut their stuff.

[KatherinWinter]

"Not half bad. Better then what I did." Roxy states casually. She found it interesting that none of the others had joined her at the wall. Roxy also found it interesting that she was the only female other then Hitomi. Had the scientist done that on purpose or were female criminals that rate.

[Johncrucible]

While stretching the muscles in his neck without actually turning to respond "Thanks, Didn't notice you there." John finally turns to face her, his eyes meeting hers "what brings a girl like you here? Doesnt seem to be many women in the program" His body language doesn't give much away, but there is a tenseness to him, like he's on edge.

[KatherinWinter]

"Just alittle mayham."Roxy replied casually. She wasn't going to admit to her crime just yet. She wanted to hear what the others have done first. She was sure most if them had committed worse crimes then she had. "So for women there's me and the scientist little pet."

[Laggia]

Björn stoped running and calmed down, He slowly turned back to a normal human again. *Right liffting that wall year right, Ain't gonna happen* Running over to the Siencetest "Is the some way i can avoid lifting anything i would be very pleased." he looked at the others and could surely see that he was teh weakest in terms of brute strenght here it seemd but non the less, being an lovely black mamba he could deal with that since he was quite dangerous himself.

[KatherinWinter]

The scientist glared at Björn. "You will do as your told. I said lift. You lift. I don't care if you life 50 lb or 1000. You will show me what your capable of. Rewards go to those who follow instructions."

[Johncrucible]

John turns away to watch the others, his body loosens up. Casually, almost coldly "Mayhem?...Are you a violent person miss or are you just a troublemaker?" He lets his gaze fall on the other girl identified as the scientists pet. He didn't like the idea of anyone being kept as a pet.

[KatherinWinter]

"I'm alittle of both I suppose." Roxy answered honestly. She had been called a troublemaker most of her life. And for the most part she didn't regret her actions. "I have been know to cause trouble and have inflicted violence. We are all criminals, except maybe Hitomi." Roxy indicated to the girl next to the scientist. "I'm not sure what her story is but the scientist treat her special."

[Johncrucible]

Johns tone lightens to a pleasant tone " I respect your honesty,I dislike liars, and your right we are all criminals. Except that one" He nods to Hitomi "She caries herself different, I cant put my finger on it."

[KatherinWinter]

"I haven't had a chance to talk to her. The scientist keeps her pretty close." Roxy frowned thoughtfully. She hadnt given Hitomi much thought. Beyond how annoying her obedience was. Why did the scientist kept her so close? She would have to see what she could find out.
