The Two Sides

<Snipped quote by wallaberry>

Brianna picks up a microphone and begins to talk into it. "Oh! Ambrose! What a surprise! I guess you're wondering why the four of us are in this situation, hmm? Well, you see, since you've gone and escaped our grasp we thought it only fitting to continue experimenting on somehow of your kin. Genetics and all that, you know?" She picks up a syringe from nearby. "Hunter, how do you feel about blood extraction?"

The Boss looks sadly at Ambrose. "My son, I have my best people on the job!" He scratches his head worriedly. "But these people, they need information to strike..."

Ambrose bites his lip, then gasps. "When...when they injected me with..." He shakes his head. "No! I..." He looks at his sister. "Please dont' hurt her! I don't...just do what you have to to me! Don't touch my sister, she's innocent. She's never done anything wrong in her entire life." He begs, looking at Hunter and then at Ptelea.

The Two Sides

<Snipped quote by Fionraella>

Reina looks confused as the woman hints at whatever Ptelea and Dem must be. "What?" She asks plainly, glancing between them. "What types of people? We're normal!"

@wallaberry

The woman grins maliciously. "Oh sweet child. Dem and Ptelea can shift into an animal." She looks sympathetically at her. "And from what I can tell, you can't." She moves to block the door. "And now that you know that information, I can't let you leave."

The Two Sides

Reina looks at the woman crossly, wishing she would get to the point. She didn't understand what was with the air of mystery. "Just tell us!" She complains.

<Snipped quote by Fionraella>

Hunter holds her tightly as she begins to struggle again, pressing the knife closer. "Careful, or she's going to match you pretty soon!" He warns Ambrose.

@wallaberry

The woman smirks. "I'm looking for certain types of people, who I know for a fact your little friend was. She was probably taken by an organization I work for, who searches for people like her. Reina, watching you, I do not believe you are that type of person. Dem, however, strikes me as the kind of guy who is." She locks the boy in her gaze. "Can't do much with a boy who need constant surgery though." She gives a mocking pout.

Dem growls at her. "Get the fuck out of my room." He snarls.

The Two Sides

"A transmission," The Boss states gravely and turns the laptop to Ambrose.

Hearing The Boss's voice, Brianna nods at Hunter to signal that the video had started. She also takes the laptop over to the cage so that Ptelea would be able to see Ambrose.

On the laptop's monitor was the video footage of a horrifying sight - Ptelea struggling bravely against Hunter's tight grip, knife held against her.

@Hawksnest565

Ambrose's face fell and he whimpers fearfully. "Ptelea..." He breathes, beginning to shake. "No!" He looks at his sister with disbelief. "How the...hell did..." He looks at the boss. "We have to save her!" He pleads the old man, looking back at his sister, whimpering.

Ptelea begins crying. "Rosey!" She reaches out at the laptop. "Help me, I'm scared!" She sobs, struggling to get away from Hunter. "Brother, I want you!"

The Two Sides

Reina shoots a glare at the woman, but pauses. She knew the woman was right. She'd get snatched up and put back into a worse home at this rate. She goes ahead and sits down in the chair. "Yeah, where is Ptelea?"

@wallaberry

"I have no idea where your little friend is." The woman says calmly, also sitting. "However, I do know where she's not. She's not here, and she's not back at that home."
Dem scowls and sets his hand on his blanket. "You're seriously going to talk riddles to a guy who just had surgery?"

The Two Sides

<Snipped quote by Fionraella>

What about me? Reina blinks, beginning to creep out of the room. She had to find somewhere to hide! She didn't know if the lady was after her, but she couldn't risk it. She couldn't go back to that home either.

@wallaberry

The woman glances at Reina. "You really think that running from this room will help you? Someone will see you and wonder where you're from. You'll end up back in that home without finding your little friend. I suggest you sit back down."

Dem scowls. "Are you watching them? Surely you know where Ptelea is then!"

The Two Sides

<Snipped quote by Fionraella>

Reina begins to shake, growing scared. "But," She protests, backing up away from the woman. "What about you, Dem?" She asks, glancing between the two. She didn't know what to do.

@wallaberry

"She can't do anything to me while I'm here." Dem says calmly, glaring at the woman evenly. "You don't give a rat's ass about Ptelea. I don't know who you are, but you're no social worker. So get out of my room." He snarls.

The Two Sides

<Snipped quote by Fionraella>

Reina huffs and begins to explain. "She said she's a foster worker. She bumped into me in the street and came with me to find Ptelea. She's just... gone!" She begins to grow anxious and her voice shook a little. "What do I do?"

@wallaberry

Dem scowls. "Reina...you need to go back to that foster home right now. I will worry about Ptelea. This woman." He shoots the woman a harsh glare. "Is not a friend, you need to go. NOW!" He snaps, reaching for the button to alert security.

The woman walks over and takes his hand in hers. "Now now. Dem was it? I assure you I mean you two no harm. Now I know you are afraid for your friend's safety, and we will do our best to find her."

The Two Sides

<Snipped quote by Fionraella>

Reina enters Dem's room and looks crestfallen that her friend was not there. "Oh no, what happened to her?" She wails, fighting back tears. "Dem, have you seen her?" She asks the weakened boy, approaching his bed. "I was knocked out or something, I can't find her!"

@wallaberry

Dem looks at Reina blankly. He sighs and sits up a bit. "Look, I just had surgery. Can you chill out for a few seconds and tell me what's going on?" He asks carefully, glancing warily at the woman. He narrows his eyes. "Reina, who is this woman and why is she in my room?"

The Two Sides

<Snipped quote by Fionraella>

Reina nods and begins heading to Dem's room, moving quickly. She had to find Ptelea. If she wasn't with Dem, it'd kill her.

@wallaberry

The woman follows, smirking. She had come here to find as many shifters as she could for the facility, under the guise of a social worker. She had been informed that Ptelea had been captured, and that the girl she had been with may or may not be a shifter. The woman preferred absolutes, but this was fine.
