Crystallis Research Academy

"Should we capture them?" The elf asked, looking around desperately for somewhere to hide. She ended up crawling up the wall to press herself against the ceiling and wall, hoping the woman wouldn't look up.  

[Archangel486]

Nikoli considers it. He sends her, telepathically.  

[UkyoKuonji2004]

A woman with long red hair was walking along. She had no reason to look upwards, hence the reason why she didn't. She was actually looking down; at a clipboard in her hand. She wore a gold nametag on her white labcoat that said 'Mrs. Stephanie Hunter'.  

[Hiraru Sagara]

Aislin watched the woman walk under, waiting for Nikoli's opinion since she couldn't communicate with him by her thoughts. Her arms were starting to scream.  

[Archangel486]

Nikoli crabwalks ((I use this word a lot- It's a crouched walk, very quiet and low)) after the woman. He draws one of his blades and readies himself- not to kill, but to capture.

He asks

((I need you to let me know if she has a light or dark soul, and how much.))

+Give me a minute, kiddo. I'll get back to you on that.+

She was one of the many people taken over by the infection, meaning bodily contact would cause her to infect others. There was no life in her eyes but she seemed natural and life like. Mumbling something about antigens, she kept walking along. She was absorbed in whatever it was in her clipboard.  

[Hiraru Sagara]

It took Aislin a very long time to crawl down the wall, silently. She found a space behind a fallen wall and waited for Nikoli. Waiting was always the hardest part about being a mission like this.  

[Archangel486]

When the woman passes a wall, Nikoli leaps into the shadow, shadow-jumping through it to another right before her. He comes out, swinging his blade up to her throat, stopping mere centimeters from contact.
"Make a sound and you're dead. Nod if you understand." He says, narrowing his eyes at her.  

[UkyoKuonji2004]

The redhead slowly nodded, looking at him in surprise and anger.  

[Archangel486]

"I am going to ask you some questions and you're going to give me answers. You don't, you're dead, and I'll find someone else. Play nice and you might live through this." He says, darkly.
"First question: What do you do here?"  

[UkyoKuonji2004]

The woman's lifeless eyes looked at him. Couldn't he figure it out by her clothing that she's a scientist? Not many wears a long white labcoat just for decoration.  

[Archangel486]

Nikoli was, of course, well aware that she was a scientist. The question served two purposes: First, there were many kinds of scientist. He wanted to know what kind of work she did here. Second, control questions are an important part of interrogations, in finding out if someone was lying.
"Don't be an idiot. What kind of work do you do here? R&D? Genetics? Weapons egineering?"  

[UkyoKuonji2004]

The girl, named Stephanie if her nametag was any indication, looked at Nikoli with vague confusion, "Crystallis department," She said it like even that should have been obvious. However her specialty wasn't actually on the nametag either, nor was there anything else that could suggest so. Only her clipboard, which had the profile of an experiment that was next to be crystallized. That very clipboard she hugged a little to her abdomen.  

[Archangel486]

Nikoli pays more attention to her physicality than her response. He glances at the clipboard and holds out his left hand. "Hand it over."  

[UkyoKuonji2004]

"Don't you know this is confidential information about one of our patients?" Stephanie said coolly, not yielding the clipboard to him, "You wouldn't want your own private life exposed like this would you?"
