"Why do you look like you're hiding something?" he asked him, watching him a little. He was about to pry a little more until an older man told them to line up as he turned and watched what the others do before moving as well.

One of the guards appeared to sigh and went to Kiiros, automatically knowing he wouldn't listen, and grabbed his arm pulling him to the wall. It was the same guard that lead him to the exam table. Once Kiiros was lined up next to Katherin and Veronica, the guard proceeded to remove the cuffs. Kiiros winced when he felt some skin being pulled away from the ice cold cuffs and stared at the charred mess that was under them. The guard lingered a bit and left for a moment, coming back with one of the doctors, who took a look at his wrists. "A reaction to the cold, much like the chief assumed would happen. Looks like dead skin, may have to be surgically removed later." Kiiros didn't like the idea of surgery, but this reaction has happened to him before last Winter. He didn't like it. The guard and doctor returned to their jobs, giving Kiiros the chance to take a close look at the skin. It was slightly bloody and looked like some kind of severe burn. 'But heat doesn't affect me... maybe it's frost bite?'.

A guard came around and removed everyone's handcuffs.

Veronica liked the freedom, she massaged her clammy wrists and drew some energy from the air and let it course around her body until letting it dissipate back into the air.

[Zerofighter]

David stood by Veronica, his wrists were free. He rubbed them and looked atthe course. There hadto be some energy thre he could drain. The power from the machines. He leaned against the wall and waited for it to begin.

[King Tai]

Being pushed, he was forced to stand next to David, lining up like how he did when the police used to round him and several goons against the wall. Looking around, he waited for something to happen but he was going to play their game for the time being.

@KatherinWinter

Kiiros was growing restless and called out to the older man. "Excuse me... how long have we been inside the facility? Since we got here I mean."

[KatherinWinter]

@Varicke
"Why does that matter? It would be hours or days. Maybe even weeks. It would make no difference. No one is going to miss you creature. This obstacle course will give me some idea of your skills and abilities but like I said it is only the first of such tests. First is the alternating steps. This is something all of you should be able to do. If you fall in the water here you are in for a surprise. Next is the salmon ladder. This could be harder for those of you with no upper body strength. Again if you fall into the water you will be punished. Next are the balance balls. This is about skill and problem solving. If you fall in the water bad things will happen. Next is the swinging next. You used the swing to get to the net and climb up to the spinning wheel. This test timing and mobility. Falling into the water is not encouraged. Next is the spinning wheel. You will have to hold onto this wheel as it spins down the hill. This will test your strength. There will be a penalty if you fall into the water. Last is the curved wall. This wall is 14 feet tall. You have three attempts to climb to the top and press the buzzer. If you press the button you will be rewarded." the head scientist explained.

@KatherinWinter

Kiiros had paled at the vague answer. It definitely couldn't have been weeks, no he'd be dead. He suddenly really didn't feel like doing the obstacle course, despite how fun it sounded earlier. He stepped out and moved to the back of line so he'd be the last to go, not caring if he looked like a coward to the others. The thought of falling into the water during the course also made him feel sick.

[Zerofighter]

David lookd at the scientist, hsi eyes narrowed. "You keep mentioning the water....whats in it. Why would it be a bad thing for us." David asked looking him in th eyes

[KatherinWinter]

@Zerofighter
"Now now. I cant be telling you everything. You will just have to wait and see. It wont kill you." The scientist assured him with a grin. Even this boy with his bone protection would have trouble dealing with the surprise that he had added to the course. He didn't want any of them to take the easy way out by falling into the water. He needed as much data as he could get.

@Xiphonic

Jen went and stood next to Veronica, feeling slightly safer around the girl.

[Carlsberg]

@KatherinWinter

Jen turned to Katherin and smiled.
"Hi, my name's Jen," she daid.

[KatherinWinter]

@Carlsberg
"It's nice to met you Jen. I wish it was under better circumstances." Katherin said softly. She looked at the other girl shyly. This was the girl who feed of energy wasn't it? She couldn't remember she had been overwhelmed at the time.

[Carlsberg]

@KatherinWinter

Jen blushed a little.
"Your wings are really pretty," she said quietly.

[KatherinWinter]

@Carlsberg
"Thank you. That is nice of you to say. Do you think you can make it through the course. I don't think I can do that ladder thing. It's too narrow for my wings." Katherin asked.

[Carlsberg]

@KatherinWinter

Jen shook her head.
"I might be able to do two or three of them, but not all of them. " she said.

[King Tai]

While waiting and listening about the course, Wes wondered what was in the water, he even considered falling in just for the hell of it to adapt the water and see what was in there. The course didn't sound too bad but it was going to be troublesome. He was ready when time was right for him to go.

[Xiphonic]

Veronica knew this would be a challenge. She had survived on the streets mostly due to her power, she rarely had to rely on physical attributes and thus had minimal work on them. She would sometimes jump on walls in alleys or balance on trashcans if she was bored, though that hardly equates to actual prowess. She had gotten good at climbing walls though, her time scavenging for food had led to her having to climb things to get away all to often. The wall was only 14-ish feet, not all that difficult. Her physical capabilities + her power might be enough to scrape through, if she could stay focused.

[Varicke]

Kiiros found himself studying the course more closely, playing scenes in his head to find out how he'll overcome each obstacle.

[Zerofighter]

David looked at the course. Didnt look to bad. He survived on his own. His power could help. he had energy stored up frm the tracker they put in him. But he might needed the energy for later. He made atight fist and closed his eyes, using the stored energy to increase his physical attributes
