Roleplaying

Lucius was very annoyed with how late he was coming. However he did not show it in his expression at all. The guard had taken his time showing up to the cell room then he insisted on making a slight detor to get a new pair of shoes. Plus Alex wasn't helping much with the speed since he was walking as slow as humanily possable.

Finally they made it to the testing room. He opened the door for the guard since he had his hands full with Alex. He then followed behind him and closed the door.

"Sorry about the wait." He said. "We got held up."

Alex could not do very much once he was cuffed and taken out of his cell. His gift couldn't help in an excape, it couldn't even break anything. In a place like this, healing was not very useful.

He tried to delay them by walking slowly. However he did not want to walk so slow that the guard felt that he needed to tase him again. This guard didn't seem to need very much for him to think a tasing was needed.

He was brought to the same testing room they always used. But this time there was someone there he hadn't seen before. It was clear that he was a sciensts by the coat he was wearing. But why would they need a second sciensts?

Then he noticed that the smaller room already had someone in it. A teen a little younger than he was with semi long blonde hair and striking green eyes. It was his little brother, Duncan. Alex's eyes widened in shock. How could they have figured it out so quickly? He had just figured out that Duncan was here!

Verner turned to see Lucius was finally here with Alex. "Not a problem," when he was new here he used to get lost and was late to pretty much everthing. He got out of the chair as it was Lucius'.

He noticed Alex's expression to seeing Duncan, seemingly confirming their beliefs. He looked worried, which meant he clearly knew Duncan. There was no way they weren't related now. They hadn't seen each other in the facility before, so the two would have to have known each other before being brought to the labs. "You know him?" He asked the gifted.

Alex changed his face to his typical expression the moment Verner questioned him. A quick look over the man confirmed that Alex had indeed never seen him before. He was most likely a scientist that worked in a different part of the lab.

"No, I don't. I am just suprised that there would be someone else here." Alex said, straight faced. Alex had always been much better a lying compared to Duncan. Duncan was scared of being found out, while Alex did not really care. He didn't feel bad about lying, expecially to these kind of people.

Verner's question gave him a little hope that maybe they didn't know that they were brothers. However he highly doupted it. What are the chances that they would set them up in the same test when they had never met before hand.

Alex blammed Nori for this. Right after he told her about Duncan they did this. She must have told them.

Verner wondered how much longer Alex would lie to them when his brother was in danger. He had to be lying, but it was much harder to tell that he was compared to Duncan. He noticed how quickly his expression changed when he questioned him.

He turned to Lucius, as Alex didn't seem like he'd tell them the truth without persuation. It was better that Lucius start the test off, as this was his lab. He knew what equipment he did and didn't have, though most lab equipment was the same. "Would you like to start the test off?"

Lucius nodded then asked the guard to restrain Alex in the chair. The same chair he had used before to bring Kadvar back to a normal tempature before. However Lucius wouldn't be using it for that, only the restraints would be needed.

He sat down at the computer and was pleasently suprised that the machine was already set up and ready to go. At least Verner had not just stood around twidling his thumbs when Lucius had arrived late.

He glanced over at the one way glass and into the room that held Duncan. He was pasing, looking very worried. The gifted didn't have any idea that Alex was here. He couldn't see outside of the room, nor could he hear anything unless it was spoken in the microphone. Lucius felt it was best to keep him in the dark as to why they would be doing all the planned things to him. It was possable that he would confess only to be set free from the room, not because they were actually brothers.

Lucius turned the swivel chair so that he would face the guards, Verner and Alex. Alex had been placed in the chair and had bars around his arms where the armrests were.

"We have reason to beleive that he is realated to you in some way," Lucius said and he gestured to Duncan. "Are you going to just conferm that now or are we going to have to persuade you?" He asked.

"If I told you that, it would be a lie." Alex spat.

"Fine." Lucius said, then he looked to Verner. "Which one first then?"

Verner didn't have to think for very long, remembering his last test with Duncan. "How about we use the wind machine?" He had wanted to do something during his last test with the speed gifted, but he hadn't had an excuse to do so. Duncan hadn't given him a reason to do so. He had wanted to shut the fan off while he was running, to have him run into the wall. It would be somewhat amusing for him to see.

If it were suspected they were merely torturing the gifted by a higher up, they could say they wanted to see how fast the gifted could stop himself.

Lucius grinned, realising what Verner was hinting at very quickly. He had read about the test he spoke about in Duncan's files. He turned the chair and pulled up the commands for the fan. He then turned the mic toward Verner.

"You tell him what to do," He said. "You're the one that usually works with him after all."

Lucius looked over at Alex. Surely he had figured out what they were planing to do by now. The teenager seemed very stiff and his expression was hard. He clearly was stressed out but was trying to hide that fact from them.  

"Turn around," he instructed Duncan. "Remember not to run too fast." That wouldn't matter when the fan was stopped. He let Lucius start up the fan. Sometimes he couldn't help but love his job. He was sure that even someone like Duncan would be suspicius that they were doing the same test two days in a row. Hopefully he wouldn't catch on to what they were doing though.

"We're turning up the fan, get ready," they were so not turning up the fan. They were doing just the opposite. Verner turned to Lucius, "Get ready to stop the fan."

Duncan did what he was told. Duncan was not the smartest person around and he was currently very worried about his brother. So the thought that it was strange to do the same test so soon did not come to mind for him.

He was running into the wind for about two mintues before he reached his typical speed. He didn't have time to react when the only thing keeping him from hitting the wall suddenly stopped. 

He ran right into the wall at full force. He fell onto the ground with a look of both pain and shock, even a small tear starting forming at the edges of his eyes. He was sure many bruses were forming all over his body.

"Why?..." He mumbled.

Alex was enraged by what he was watching and he wasn't able to fully hide that expression. It was just wrong to do that to anyone. He would have been mad even if it wasn't his brother. Though the fact that it was Duncan did raise his fury much higher.

"Do you understand what's going to happen here now?" Lucius said. Alex hated him more than anyone at that moment. He had never killed anyone before, but he felt that he could pull it off at this time. Lucius was lucky Alex was straped down.

"Are you going to answer the question now?" Lucius said, but Alex did not speak. He wasn't sure how far they would go to get an answer out of him. He knew that he would break soon though. If they were doing these things to him he could handle it, but he couldn't allow them to do it to Duncan.

That was going to leave a mark, or several. Normally he wouldn't feel guilty at all, but normally test subjects didn't cry. Also normally gifteds deserved what was done to them. He didn't feel too bad though, it was Alex's own fault. He could stop this by saying a few words. He remembered something that had been done on Alex before, "How about we flood the room?" He suggested.

Surely Alex wouldn't let something happen to his brother that he himself had endured. Alex had to know how aweful that had been. He doubted the gifted would remain quiet forever, for his brother's sake.

Duncan pushed himself up into a sitting possision. His arms felt sore from the collison and he was starting to form a headache from hitting his head into the wall. He didn't get an answer as to why they were doing these things to him. He had never been punished before here because he never did anything that would make anyone think that he needed one.

He wiped his face to remove the tears forming at his eyes before they ran down his face. He was not very tolerant of pain. He was scrawny and not very strong, his body couldn't take much.

Duncan felt his pants get wet and for a split second he thought he had peed himself or something. Luckily that wasn't the case as that would be extreamely embarrassing. He stood up and looked down. The room was very quickly flooding with freezing water. He could have sworn that he saw a bit of ice in there.

"Why are you doing this to me?" He whined.

Alex looked away from the window on the room as if looking away would make it not be happening. He narrowed his green eyes and put on a look of determination. He knew he could not let this go on, but he also could not let them know that he and Duncan were brothers. They could too easily use that aginst them. 

They would not go with the lie that they were not in the same family tree at all. Anyone could easily tell that they were. They looked so simular.

"We are realated." Alex said slowly. "Cousins. We lived far apart, so I didn't see him often."

Close enough, Duncan could still be used to threaten Alex just the same as if they were brothers. They looked too similar to just be cousins, but they had a good enough answer. He turned the Lucius, "Could you drain the room." He believed that Alex had given them a close enough answer. He wasn't sure if the anwer was good enough for Lucius, but Duncan didn't look like the type of person who could take much more of this. It was best they end the test.

"Testing is over," he spoke into the microphone once the room was drained of water.

All the characters are at a lab in a remote island. All the guards and scientists live in buildings around the lab. Most of the lab is under ground. The lab is very guarded and is pretty much impossable to excape from. There are rooms of about five Gifteds all in their own cell, but they are able to see each other and speak to each other.

In our world, we expect we all have the same kinds of abilities, we can all do the same things, it all just depends on what you practice. However that believe is wrong, there are people born with strange, fantastic and even dangerous powers known as Gifteds. It doesn't matter if the parents are Gifted, the children produced seem to be randomly Gifted or non-Gifted.

Of course normal people fear the Gifteds, they are stronger than them, more dangerous than them and they have no way of knowing who is who. That's why when people learned of them the hunt for Gifteds started almost immediately.

The caught Gifteds were sent away to a place only known as 'The Labs' where they are experimented on to find their weaknesses and their strengths. Their final goal is to find a way to control them and use them for wars.

Lucius brought Nori and Alex for a test to see if Alex could heal Nori's sickness.

Alex was drugged in order to savely bring him back to his cell.

Kadvar told Alex his plans to excape by writing on a card and passing it to him.

Kadvar is dirtying his cell to try to attract Nori.

Rusty is being lazy and not updating this.

Please play as the minority group so we don't get overflowed with one type of character.

Please look at other characters and do not make Gifteds with a power someone already has.

All powers must have weaknesses. For example, most Gifteds will loose control of their ability while under stress.

Only one power for each Gifted.

Both guards and scientists carry weapons, but scientists will only use them if a guard isn't around.

No killing without permission.
