"Yeah, someone sure did cause her anxiety to flare - you and this whole damn prison thing! Caleb snarled, but it wasn't like anyone really listened to him. Maybe the other experiment objects, if they could place who they were talking about. After all, they were missing two people now, although Moores had never seen Thias. Meanwhile, discussion continued as lady doctor proceeded to answer questions and lie to them. The sugar coating was so thick the man felt like gagging. But Corynn's hand on his arm made him remain quiet through the whole speech.

Young woman was absolutely overloaded. Her mind had become fast mountain river in flood where she was a mere stick, tossed around. All the things she saw were so clear, so intense that she could barely comprehend even half of them as they rushed over her. And the thoughts were not easier either. She knew that simulation room would cause physical harm, she saw someone being dying here, under the ever watchful supervision of 'doctors'. Corynn also saw small bits of research papers and underground labs, she saw the visualization of 'brighter future' - where this group stood staring ahead dully like zombies, ready to do whatever was needed. It was clear they were simply test bunnies, albeit extremely precious ones, to these two and she could even feel irritation they had for those that weren't as easily fooled.

And then Rroy arrived. Suddenly, saying 'white as a sheet' wasn't just a idiom anymore. It looked like all blood had left Corynn's face, her pupils dilated, swallowing up the pretty gray as her eyes widened in absolute horror. The mountain river that had already been tainted by blood now became only that and she could hear maniacal laughter in her head. The visuals of him killing a young girl were way too bright and vivid in his head. She staggered back, trying to resist fainting or throwing up. Thankfully, Caleb held her up, swatting Rroy's hand away lightly when he tried to touch him and the man soon went away in his madman manner. Last bit she caught from LTB officials leaving soon after was how Smith planned to reward Heyman for her good speech and that, too, was picture she wished to forget as soon as possible. And he didn't even know he wasn't only one keeping her company in very specific way!

As soon as they were all out, Caleb helped Corynn out of simulater where she simply sat down in the corridor, covering face with hands. "He killed her... He killed her!" she whispered in horror and Caleb shook her by shoulders lightly. "Who? Who!?" he asked, angry and mortified at thought Nixie could be dead. It would be his fault on some level...! "Not Nixie," his sister replied quietly, hearing his thoughts, "this girl... I don't know her name. For just having a look around... They won't even try to keep us alive. He is.. insane. And.. and..." Quiet tears ran down her face now as she stared at her brother. He was kneeling in front of her, hiding her from curious gazes of men and women that would pass by. "I won't let anyone touch you," he growled. "You might not have a choice... We can't withstand against them all... They have gifts, too." she said with defeat in her eyes and voice that horrified Caleb more than any death threats.
