Fleeting Humanity (Lab Roleplay- semi-lit) Scientist Needed

[StevoMagnus]

{Blade}
Blade sharpened a whole bunch of sticks into double ended spikes and attached them to a branch that could bend back a fair way. He pulled the branched back and hooked it to a notch he made with the arrow earlier. He let it go and it stayed there. "OK, now I need some sort of string for a tripwire," he said as he looked around. This might actually work, he thought as he made sure the bending branch was stable. Then he hid the razor blade high in the tree - in a small indent where no-one would find instantly - and made sure he wasn't suspicious when and if any of the scientists come in to get him.

{Sophie}
Sophie held Neo tightly with her left arm and grinned, putting her mouth next to Neo's right ear. "Wrong move," she hissed as she pressed the button on the stun-gun and pressed it against him, causing a large enough shock to make him loose conciousness. Should have done this earlier, she thought as she pulled the stun-gun back, ready to stun him again if it didn't work.

"What if one of the other experiments trip it?" Zara whispered to him, doubt filling her eyes. She looked at him worriedly, glancing around to see if anyone was watching. It would be better if they kept the others from going near this area, and baiting the scientists to walk straight into the trap. How to do that, Zara wasn't sure, but she knew she couldn't just let another experiment get hurt. It was against her resolution that she had made on Daniel's dead body. She didn't want to just forget it now.

Neo's muscles tightened with the painful shock, and he began to fall instantly. His mind was whirling, the world swirling and the ground moving closer to his face. Why was it moving closer again? As he hit the ground with a thud, his mind slipped away. He had his fun, but now play-time was over and he was left unconscious. If only he had gotten away.

{Blade}
Blade hit his forehead with his palm. "Crap, I didn't think of that. Thanks," he said as he dropped down from the tree and unhooked the trap. How will this work, he thought as he crossed his arms, staring at the trap. He sighed and turned to Zara. "I was thinking... If we manage to escape, what would we do? I know I would try and survive in a deserted area or something, but what would you do?" he asked as he walked up to her, putting his arm around the back of her neck (in the buddy-buddy way, not a threatening way).

{Sophie}
Sophie sighed and put away the stun-gun. "You are such a handful, you know that?" she asked to Neo (even though she knows he won't answer) and hauled him over her shoulder to take him back to the field. She looked at her watch and blinked. "Only an hour left before time in the field is up. I might as well take him back to his chamber," she said to herself, changer her destination to Neo's chamber.
When she got there, she entered a code into the pad beside the door. The door opened, she entered the room, placed Neo on his 'bed' and left a note that she quickly scribbled down saying,

Sorry I didn't take you to the field. Time flies when you're having fun. I hope you understand.

((I like Sophie a lot now. She's on my list of favorites.))

Zara watched him silently, not saying anything as he disarmed the trap and returned to her side. At his question, she thought for a moment. She hadn't really thought about it before, but she remembered Daniel's dream. In the cramped cages full of different experiments, he would stick his arms from the bars and tell Zara about the thing he would do the moment he stepped outside of those gates. The memory sprang up and she smiled.
"You know, I had a crazy friend once who had lost everything when he was put in the laboratories. He died not a long time ago, but I think I will pursue his dream dying wish in his place. When I get out of here, Blade, I will find a remote area in the woods somewhere far from humans, and I will create a town where people like us can live free of judgement." She said, looking at him with her deep gray eyes.

[StevoMagnus]

((Glad you like her. I don't know why, but I just randomly think up of characters on the fly and add them to whatever story I'm writing. I can never complete one story without starting another because of my new ideas.))

{Blade}
Blade grinned and let go of her. "That dream is purely respectable. You should try and get other's help in making that happen, like me for example. You can get my help any time you need it," he said as he stuck out his hand to shake hers. This is going to be one hell of a time, he thought. But he already knew that this dream and his, were the same in so many ways.

{Sophie}
Sophie returned to her office for a small rest before she had to collect her assigned subject. She sighed and sat down at her desk, taking the notes she threw in the bin beside her out. "I think I just need to stop thinking so much and just concentrate on the tasks at hand. Maybe that will ease my mind a little," she said to herself, putting the notes in order again.
((Word-block for Sophie's part. Sorry.))

((I have to say, though, the symbolism between the guy dressed as a llama, the llama itself, and the Emperor Penguin is a bit twisted.))

Willy stared, laughing with much vigor. Despite being weak, he found himself able to laugh hard, "Zombie? Really? How many scenarios have they told you? They must have really thought everything was possible!" He laughed, "Aereo, you were checking in the wrong place for my pulse." He tilted his chin up and placed two fingers besides his throat, "You can find it here." He instructed, "It beats just as normally as yours... at least I think. Does your heart beat normally?"

"Sharp enough to make things from trees?" Zara said doubtfully, looking at the razor and the blood welling up from his finger. As he stuffed it into his pocket she breathed, chewing on the inside of her lip in thought. After a moment she shrugged, looking at him straight on.
"Well, at least your hands aren't shreds. What are you planning on using it for?" She inquired, tilting her head at him in interest. She wanted to know what someone would do with something like that.

"D'aw!" Neo taunted as she came through the door. He laughed, pouncing from his shelf and attempting to knock her over in his descent. If he knocked landing on top of her, he'd sit there for a split second, giving her a smile before darting down the hallway again. If he didn't fall into her, he would attempt to go around her and continue running.

[really? how so? i just saw it as a penguin buying a llama from a llama dealer. >u<]

Aereo relaxed. "Oh, okay, good." He sighed, a relieved smile spreading across his face. He looked back at Willy after a short moment. "Oh.. so, you check for a pulse on a human's neck? But isn't that their weakest point?" He asked innocently, looking at where Willy was pointing. It was definitely at the most vulnerable place possible. That's weird.
"My heartbeat? Well, not really. At most times, I don't have a heartbeat. I just don't need one. Only when I use certain abilities does it 'beat', but it really doesn't do anything. It really just serves as my core. Actually, it's not even physically connected to most of my body; it's just held in placed by solid Promethium at the center of my rib cage. Even so, it's my life source, and it is my weakest point, even if it has no visible function, or, in other words, doesn't beat." Aereo explained. It was a pretty complicated subject, and he hadn't given away all the information about it. It was... classified, you see.

Inu shook his head weakly "No.... Shot through the head, arrow through the heart, anything really...... and my body will still find some way to get me to come back." He said, almost bitterly. He shook a bit, feeling another small wave of pain overcome him. "But there is a small catch......" Inu continued and mumbled something under his breath, turning his head away for a moment. He looked back to Evan, a little hesitant to say it.

[Season of the Star]

((@HellsBlade- XD Sounds like me. Evan, Willy, and Torryn were all created specially for this roleplay. If you go back and read their forms- I basically rewrote Willy's entire character.
@Aereosync- Um... You know what, Sync? For the children of CS... I'd rather not. XD))

Zara looked at Blade in surprise, hesitating to take the hand for a moment before shaking it with a smile. She looked up at him, glad that he was around. She had found so many things just by being with him- and for him to offer her to help was the big cherry on top. Well, that's what Daniel used to say, at least. She didn't even know what a 'cherry' was, despite him telling her it was some sort of fruit.
"Thank you, Blade." She whispered.

Willy nodded slowly, as though he comprehended when he actually didn't. His heart didn't beat? How could he even be alive? What is the function of a core? Despite these questions, Willy held his tongue. He didn't want to upset Aereo by trying to get too much information. From the pessimist who thought 'zombie apocalypse' as the first option to their friend's return, and aliens from some previous time- he didn't want to risk it.
"It's true that this is the most vulnerable point- and want to know why? Because the main vessel of blood to the head is right here-" Willy traced the line with his two fingers" If that is severed- it's a sure thing that they'd bleed out unless they get medical attention immediately."

~

"You better tell me what that catch is and hurry, or electricity will be thrumming through your body." Evan warned, turning the cattle prod back on, "Get out any information you know right now, Inuxen, or I will find out through torture." He growled at Inu, eyes narrowed in impatience.

Inu's fur rose in fear as he tried to back away, but the bonds still held him tight in place. "O-ok.... J...Just no m-more" He shook out and took a deep breath, calming himself the best he could. "The only only way I c-can come back to life..... is if I t...t-take lives in return....." He stuttered "For each life I take.... I get one in return..... And if I die I can use one of my s-stored lives." Inu took another shaky breath and looked straight at Evan, eyes still showing fear, but now a little more stable. "Why do you think during that 'haaarmless' prank..... I actually suggested and wanted to kill some scientists?" He responded, as if it was common knowledge, Inu obviously did not care for the lives he had planned to take.
