[IC] The Experiment

[Zmerr]

Adalina watched in disturbed fascination. The man's means of punishment was interesting. She took in Cassandra's face as she tried not to show any signs of giving in. She admired her courage and strength. Adalina wondered how she would react if it were her in that position. She thought she'd probably be begging for forgiveness. Screaming in pain. Scared out of her mind. But Cassandra? Adalina wanted to be tough like her.

Flippy slowly turned to Maxwell "I... did not volunteer for... THIS!" as he shouted that he lunged at Maxwell blood came out of his palm and formed a spike. Flippy had tackled Maxwell to the ground and was on top of him. Flippy had the spike clenched in both of his hands and is about to stab one of Maxwell's arms.

The guard at the door took at his tazer and shoot Flippy. The taser hit the boy in the back. Electricity would course through the boys body. "That is where you are wrong Flippy. This is exactly what you signed up for."

Cassandra refused to make one sound, not even a whimper. She instead focused on keeping her body relaxed, knowing if she tensed, she'd just make the wounds bleed more. Her blood was warm on her skin, but she didn't let that distract her as she breathed in and out slowly, relaxing every part of her body. She was Glad for all her meditative practice. She had her eyes closed and it could almost seem like she was asleep. "Then I will keep on defying you. To protect them" she whispered, her voice void of emotion

Vlad caressed her wounds almost "You will suffer Cassandra. If you do not then I will be forced to inflict your punishment on Adalina. If the only way to keep you under control is by hurting others then that is what I will do."

[Zmerr]

Adalina's heart dropped into her stomach. "M-me?" She just barely breathed the word. She watched Cassandra's face intensely, half hoping she'd give in. She didn't want to be punished especially for someone else's wrongdoing, but at the same time, Cassandra's will to fight for what she thought was right was extremely admirable.

[MarshiestMallow]

Cassandra grimaced, opening one eye. "Then you will just have to try harder. I have a high pain tolerance" she said. Which was true. Her whole life had virtually been pain training. "I can act like I'm in pain, but im of that good of an actor" she looked to Adalina, emotions weaved through her. She did feel pain, but there wasn't enough to cry out, and she really was a sucky actor. She had a feeling if she merely acted like she was in pain, it would just be that much worse. "I'm sorry, adalina" emotion broke her voice. She didn't look away. "Do your worst with me"

Adalina looked at Cassandra. She was completely speechless. She opened her mouth to ask Cassandra why, but answered her own question before the words even formed on her lips. Finally, something slipped. "Be strong..." she whispered, letting the last word trail off.

JoJo's jaw slacked as she watched the violent interaction unfold. A fellow student had attacked a guard! That was just asking for trouble, that much she knew. The person that the boy attacked did not react. Rather, a guard at the door pulled out his taser in response- a drawing of his weapon that Jo caught from the corner of her eye. "No!" Of course, her warning was without result as the electric current coursed through the boy. She slapped a hand over her mouth. She was tempted to interfere... But her fear and shock kept her in place.

[Dark Angel]

Lucy grit her teeth, watching as the boy attacked the guard, only to have a taser in the back. No one else in the room was taking this situation very well, and if it continued like this, than there would be dire consequences. One of the other girls had stood up, and had tried shouting a warning to Flippy, but it was in vain. Lucy looked between the two of them, as familiar feelings started to grip her. Anger, sympathy, and mostly guilt. It was partially her fault that this had happened, or at least that's what she convinced herself as she returned her gaze to the boy.

Vlad studied Cassandra with his empty eyes. He had no hestitation about seriously hurting her. He hurt people all the time. Still he needed her to be able to perform. He patted her arm lovingly. "You are a confusing child Cassandra. You say that you care for the others but you for e me to hurt the others in your place. Your the opposite of my pet. You have made your position clear. If I want you to do what I want I have to hurt those you wish to protect."

He took the knife and made deep cuts an her joints. He knew that cutting her knees, elbows and others bending parts would cause her pain whenever she moved. Once he was done with that he went over to Adalina. "Thank Cassandra for your punishment."

[Zmerr]

Adalina's entire body filled with fear. Her eyes darted from the man's face to the bloody knife in his hand and back. What was he planning to do? She felt her muscles tense up. She didn't want to be hurt. She was confused. "W-what?" She wasn't sure if it was determination in the man's eyes, but it added to her fear.

[MarshiestMallow]

This time, when Vlad moved away from her, Cassandra strained against the bonds, causing the cuts to roar with pain, letting out a cry, but she still managed to growl "leave her be!" She knew she wasn't strong enough to watch someone being hurt in front of her like Adalina had with her. "Leave her be!" As she strained against the bonds, she could feel them digging into her skin, but didn't care. She strained against the bonds "I'll kill you!" She screamed. Blood dripping off the knife, blood slick over her skin, warm but cooling, her heart racing fast. She swallowed "leave her be!"

[KindledBeast]

Alastair sat in the chair and waited for a guard to let him out, he watched as half of his wounds to heal, the ones that didn't heal were still bleed they were shallow though so he wasn't worried about bleeding out.

"No why would I do that Cassandra?" Vlad asked as he caressed Adalina's arms. "You haven't learned anything. I will continue issuing punishments until I find one that makes you bend to my will. I don't care what it takes. You will bend to my wishes. You will follow orders."

"Your are to report to the gym. The others should be there shortly." The guard told him as he unfastened Alastwir from the chair. Once the bindings were undone the guard stepped back and indicated for the boy to go in front of him.

Adalina tried to shy away from the man's touch. She let out a slight whimper. She looked at Cassandra trying to convey a message to her. She knew what Cassandra was trying to do. Adalina also knew that if she didn't comply, it was very likely that there would be further issues. She looked back at the man. He was waiting for something. Or so it seemed. He still had a hand in her arm. Goosebumps covered her, spreading from the point of contact. She kept her mouth shut, uncertain of the man's intentions.

"Don't worry I don't bite. Well at least not men." Alastair said with a laugh grabbing gauze and wrapping his wounds before heading to the gym, it was hell. He went and sat down there was no point in getting punished for half if these little monster.

[MarshiestMallow]

Cassandra screamed worldless rage, but adalinas slight whimper shattered her rage. Suddenly she was four years old again, at the mercy of her father. His fists coming down towards her, the whimper escaped even though she knew the noise would just make it worse, she couldn't help it....no! She was not that kid anymore. But the blood dripping off the knife...

"I'm your father! You have to do what I say!"

The knife was in her hand, it's handle smooth in her grip. She swallowed...

No. Do not remember that either. "Don't" she whispered, tears stinging her eyes, "leave her. I'll do what I'm told" for now... the steady drip of blood seemed to echo in her ears. "Just don't hurt her"

[KatherinWinter]

"I can see that we aren't going to accomplish much today. I will inform the doctor if the reason. There will be a punishment handed out. Lunch will probably be withheld." Maxwell told the group. "Follow me to the gym. The doc should be about ready to start gym."

Vlad patted Adalina's arm. "That wasnt so hard was it Cassandra?" Vlad asked teasingly. He leaned close and whispered in Adalina's ear. "I will have you later." He made a shallow cut into Adalina's cheek. "This is so both of your remember the cost of not following orders." He caresses the girls as he unfastens their bounds. His hands lingering longer then they should."

[MarshiestMallow]

Cassandra sat up and it took all of her willpower not to smash her fist into Vlads face. She was blood stained, and hurting, her wrists and ankles raw from the bonds,, but she still managed to push past vlad to despite the pain of each movement on the cuts along her knees "are you all right?" She asked softly, plans already whirling in her mind, but she didn't focus on them. "I'm sorry"

Adalina shuddered and rubbed her wrists after the man untied her. She shot a glance at Cassandra. She looked back at the man and wiped the cut on her cheek. It left fresh blood on her hand. It was hot. Have me later? What more is there? Hadn't Cassandra carried that load?

"I'm fine. are you okay?" She looked back to Cassandra who was now standing with her.

[MarshiestMallow]

Cassandra gave her a weak smile, "I've had worse. I'm fine" she was pale and appeared shaky. "Go. Let's get out of here. I want to have a shower to wash the feel of sleeze-ball devil off me, and I'm sure you do too." If she hadn't had to worry about Adalina, she didn't know what she would have done. "So I'm off to a great start here. Refused to participate in gym, don't show up for a class , get a guard in trouble, and then get tortureed and end up getting you hurt to" she didn't bother wiping off the blood from her hands. It would have been a pointless exercise. Besides, and she started to walk, she did so proudly. There were other ways of defying someone besides openly

Flippy after passing out because of the tazer was dragged to the gym by a guard. After a while he awoke to see he was the only one there, all he could remember was that he was tazed by a guard and that he tried to break both of Maxwell's arms. "This sucks..." he said while looking around for something to do "You could at least have givin me something to do ya know." Flippy said out loud even though no one would probably hear him.
