Mr. Bones, your attention please.

[Raleigh]

*A small message is sent to Bones' communications device directing him to open up the signal. If he does so he will likely see Raleigh standing with a smirk on the other end inside of what appears to be a large spherical chamber with little else to be seen at the moment.* I've always preferred to store things irregularly and I suppose this isn't any different.

[Feng]

From the shadows Bones appears!

"You summoned me, Mr. Cloak?"

[Raleigh]

Indeed. Welcome to the repository of test subjects. If you will look around you will find that every 20 feet or so of this large dome's walls is a separate cell holding one or two subjects. Not all are human either.

[Feng]

"Excellent work Mr. Cloak. You shall be well rewarded for your efforts."

Bones paces through the repository glancing at the test subjects.

"Out of curiosity though, where did you acquire these guinea pigs?"

[Maiden Miki]

"So this what you been up to?" smiled Megan as she seem to be following Bones. "So what is the point of this? A never ending army?"

[Raleigh]

Several different realms. A few were people on planes or boats that were never found according to their historical records. Several of them are people who disappeared during some point to never be seen again as well. Some are the people who were supposedly lured away by the fair folk or claimed by banshees and the like. I did say I knew candidates for spiriting away after all and I carried it out in more or less a literal interpretation.

Mostly experiments. I would say at least half of them will be used in just some of the color experiments that Bones wants to use I think. Some of them could be trained to be an army or more. After all, I have an entire retinue of minions whose sole role is body modifications and enhancements to make even a human tolerably proficient in combat. Before you think that sounds cruel I would remind you I've used each of those enhancements myself as well to get a full range of data.

[Maiden Miki]

"Hmm...I would figure that you guys would do something to them then let them run their merry way to do whatever they want," said Megan as she looked around and poked at a glass container. "May that be causing havoc or biting a few heads."

[Raleigh]

Oh we will release more than a few particularly those color changed. That aside they've all already been fed so that means they are already infected with my Demon Seed enchantment. At leisure I could turn any of them into a ravening monster.

[Feng]

"Hmmm... I fear that might compromise our control group," says Bones. "Will the seed have any reaction with colored energy?"

[Raleigh]

Nope. They are fully inert unless I specifically trigger them. Otherwise they are undetectable and harmless. Besides, I can remotely purge them from someone if needed. I would have thought you would have been more concerned if you had them in your systems since I supply most of the food to the city last I checked, heh.

[Feng]

"Given the fact that the water and food supply becomes tainted on a weekly basis I tend to draw my food supplies from outside sources. Anyways which of our lucky contestants will be first?"

[Raleigh]

I suppose that would be Sesha. She is from one of those worlds with the whole samurai, ninja, warlord, and such deals. She's the bastard daughter of a former daimyo who fell into further disgrace when all of his lands were destroyed and left in ruins overnight. Though unrecognized she trained quite extensively in the fighting arts hoping to at least earn some recognition from her father but alas it was for naught what with her being the only survivor in the entire province over the age of accountability. She swore vengeance upon whatever force caused this destruction. I figured she could use a bit of attitude adjustment so she would make a fine candidate for testing these colors on.

[Maiden Miki]

"Hmm....She sounds like somebody fun to play with," giggled Megan from the side.

[Feng]

"Hmmm.... Very well then," says Bones, adjusting his monocle before approaching the door. "Will the one known as Sesha please step forth?"

Bones reaches into his coat pocket and retrieves a curious device. It looks like a cross between a cell phone and a tazer.

[Raleigh]

*Somewhere toward the left side of the dome, across from the group, a woman begins to float down toward them after phasing through the wall.* That would be Sesha. *The target for the moment lands and is held in place much like a marionette.* Have to try out some of my puppetry skills with the living every once in awhile.
