Part 3
*Setting: The room which the situation takes place in is dark and dingy. In the middle is a large, glass compartment. The floor is white and stained with the black blood of 'food'. The glass compartment has the sort of glass which can only be seen from one side, and the inside is the mirrored part. The walls of glass itself reach upto the ceiling and so technically its like a box with the only light source on the inside. Three children are inside already, two boys and Aisha, the only female so far. Around the glass case are many computers and electronic record keeping equipment. Also, on many of the walls are the yellow signs graced with black writing which states; 'Silence. Experiment in progress.' or 'Please do not tap on the glass.'. Heavily armed guards watch from all entries and exits and Scientists, Psychologists and other medical personnel bimble around merily, somethimes pausing to watch the children mope around...depressed or dis-heartened by the sudden change in scenery.*
Psychologist: "Have the males interacted with the female, yet?"
The Orkhid whispered gently into her lab partners ear, taking note of the signs. Her darkish hair was up in a bun, tied with a purple bobble. She held a clip board in her hand and tapped a pen gently on the front.
Dr: "Hmmm...not that iiiiiii am aware."
He stretched out the letter 'I' as he scanned through some notes given to him by his partners. His hair was dark also, but cut very short in a crue cut like fashion. His face was very young and fresh. They both stood in their white Lab coats, proud of being apart of something so fine and majestic.
*Quiet beeping*
The Dr turned around, the sound was coming from a white telecom system on the desk behind him. He carefully leant over, his eyes still focused on the inhabitants of the glass cage. His lean fingers patted gently around on the telecom system until finally he found the button that was upstanding, he quickly pressed it.
Dr: "Carter here, how can i help?"
He turned his head briefly to address the caller whom responded immediatly.
Voice: "This is Janek, im on my wvay down. Get all updated records for me..."
As soon as Carter heard the name 'Janek' his head span around to face it, giving the caller his undivided attention. The Psychologist whom stood next to him seemed to do the same. But as soon as the last sentence was finished the line between them was cut off and all that was left was a mild hum.

*Setting: Outside of the room is a guard post. The corridor leaving is white and well lit with metallic pipes on the walls, possibly providing water and heat etc. The doors that lead to the observation room are large and metallic with a small hand-print panel on the side around shoulder height. For extra security there is a Guard situated at the guard post. He is pale, sat on a dark mauve swivel chair and dressed in the usual black gear with his rifle underneathe his desk an arms length away and a baton holstered on the side of his leg. On the metal guard post lies a small Tv and a jug and glass of water. The guard casually sips the glass of water whilst watching the Tv, un-interested by any comings or goings that happened around him.*
Tv: "THE GRRRREAT POWERRS THAT BE ARE SPEAKING TO ME-A!! YES, YES, YESSSS-A!! I CAN FEEL THEM, NOWA, AND DO YOU KNOW WHAT THEY ARE TELLING ME-A!? SAYING TO ME-A!? TELLING ME TO DO-A!?! THEY ARE SAYING 'HELP PEOPLE-A, MAKE MORE PEOPLE HAPPY-A!! GIVE PEOPLE YOUR LOVE-A!!!' AND I REPLY TO THEM 'BUT HOW-A!? HOW CAN I DO THIS, I AM BUT A MERE MORTAL-A!?!?' AND THEY REPLY, THEY REPLY TO ME AND SAY 'JOI, JOI TAKE THAT SINFUL MONEY AWAY-A!! BURN IT FOR THEM, MAKE THEM SEE THE EVIL THEY ARE PERFORMING BY KEEPING THAT MONEY IN THEIR POSSESSION-A!!!' AND SO, THAT IS WHY I ASK-A YOU!! I ASK YOU TO SEND YOUR MONEY IN, SEND IT HERE WERE I CAN BURN IT AND FREE YOU OF YOUR EVIL-A!! LET ME CLEANSE YOU OF YOUR DARKNESS...EVILNESS...SINFULNESSSS!!! BECAUSE BELIEVE ME-A. IF YOU CANT TRUST JOI LALLM, YOUR DOING YA SELF MORE HALM..."
Their was a brief moment of static on the small Tv screen, the Evangelist Mudokon seemed to roll on the screen, going to the top and disappearing and then reappearing on the bottom, as the Tv jumped. The Orkhid slapped the side, annoyed. He always enjoyed watching Joi Lallm's shows. They were so immensly stupid and yet he was amazed by how much money people sent in. They didn't seem to realise that the money they sent was the money he used, the 'sinful' , 'evil' money. The Orkhid guards attention was drawn to the sudden thumping footsteps of a approaching creature. He sat up on his small swivel chair and clutched his baton, awaiting the first sign of trouble. As the sound got louder a large, rounded Orkhid came from around the corner. It was Cornesh. The guard had been shown a picture of this Scientist and told not to let him in, under ANY circumstances. Something about it being dangerous for the project. As Cornesh neared, the Orkhhid guard slowly turned up the volume on the Tv set so he could, at least for a while, pretend he couldn't hear him. He ignored him the first time, Cornesh did the same. He wandered straight upto the palm security lock and placed his round hand on it. Awaiting it to fully scan in his palm print. As the green light finally finished running up and down the palm of the Orkhid it turned red and a relativly loud buzz came from it. Cornesh snorted and attempted to try again, this time the guard told him he wasn't authorised. He did this without his eyes leaving the Tv set.
Cornesh: "What do you mean!? I am one of those childrens guardians!! She needs me!!"
The guard turned his head and looked up at him, sipping some water.
Guard: "Im sure she does. Now, if you care to go along and actually find somebody who runs the medical authorisation department i will be most greatful."
He turned back to his viewing and snuggled down into his seat, crossing his arms. Cornesh snorted and eyed up the door, he then placed his ear to it, attempting to hear inside and make sure nothing too 'brutal' was happening to his beloved Aisha. Finally after what seemed like minutes of pondering Cornesh stepped upto the desk.
Cornesh: "Where's Janek!?"
The guard merely pointed to his ear and shrugged, not taking his eyes off of the screen nor saying a word.
Cornesh: "I said...WHERE'S JANEK!?"
Tv: "I HAVE SOMEBODY ON THE PHONE RIGHT NOW-A. SAYS THAT IM LYING...SAYS THAT HE KNOWS THAT THE SPIRITS WOULD NOT SAY SUCH THINGS-A. AB..."
Cornesh pulled the plug out of the Tv, addressing the guard again. Standing up the guard un-holstered his baton and slowly walked around the desk, his weapon tapping his leg.
Guard: "What is wrong with you...?"
Cornesh un-phased by such threatening behavior attempted to make himself bigger and puffed out his chest.
Cornesh: "Wheres....Janek?"
His tone was quieter now, but also slower. The guard sighed and scratched the back of his head with a free hand.
Guard: "I, i dont know. But what i do know is...you need to learn some manners."
He slowly raised the baton and as he did so a black shadow swept past him. Its voice quick and snappy.
Voice: "YOU...sit. And you...Come wvith me."
The guard knew whom Janek was addressing without even having to turn around and immediatly backed away. He didn't want to get shipped off to the outskirts of Mudos for just beating in a fat bastard and so attempted to calm himself. Cornesh on the other hand kept his calm composer, although secretly he was thankful that Janek had arrived on time. He wobbled upto Janek who was now standing infront of the metallic doors, his hand on the security panel. A friendly 'Bing' came from the mechanism and the doors quickly opened, each going to the side, followed by a 'humming noise'. Janek stepped into the dark room, slowly followed by Cornesh.
Janek: "Now. Wve have ground rules in here Cornesh...You either abide by them or you never see her again...understood? Hm?"
A low mumble of aggreance was all Cornesh could muster as he stared in awe at the technology which was behind two electronically operated doors. And then happiness over-whelmed him as he saw Aisha...
