"You can't hurt me." Sinclair mutters the moment I take a stop closer to her. "The law says that any..." Her words dry up as I use my magic to silence her. Eyes wide and panicked she backs herself into the far corner of her cell. It's a lot nicer than the ones humans use for supernatural creatures. There's a soft bed, a desk with a few books and a separate door that I would guess is a bathroom.
"The law doesn't apply to humans hurting humans and as far as anyone else knows, I'm human." I grin, making her eyes widen more. I see her chest move as her breaths become shallower and I look over at Benjamin who rolls his eyes. "It's too soon." He argues but seconds later the woman's breathing evens out, no doubt to his mind manipulation. "Doy your thing, we don't want to be here longer than needed. Her mind is much weaker than yours, in many ways." He frowns at this.Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
"She's a spineless coward, of course she has mush for brains." I glare at her, disgusted with the sight of her. "Now, we need to get into your compound, and you can either tell us how or we can make your brain bleed by going through it. Your choice." She's going to end up dead either way, she just doesn't have to know that quite yet.
"I'm not telling you anything." She spits when I release my silent gag. "You're all worthl..." I silence her again, not in the mood for her insults.
"I'll give you once more chance. You can tell us how to get into your compound, safely without any harm coming to us or we turn your brains into mush and tell the world you had a hybrid baby that you tried to kill with a plant that's poison to him." Her eyes dart to Ragna and if I had any doubt before I sure as hell don't now.
"You're actually a sick waste of space but at least you taught me who my real enemy was before I died in your hands." Ragna mutters, looking like he wants to say more but he doesn't and turn to me. "Speak." She takes a few deep breaths, eyes darting to Rain when he goes to lean against the desk.
"You have to disable the alarm. There's a tablet in my safe at my house. Behind the painting of a waterfall." She mutters and I blink myself there. I find the painting easy enough since it's in her living room and rip it from the wall, confirming the safe is there before I blink back into her cell.
"Code?" She gives me a taunting smile.
"My fingerprint." She boasts but it quickly goes away when Ragna pulls out a knife from his belt and hands it to me. I flick open the weapon and walk over to her, keeping her in place with my magic before cutting off her finger, silencing her screams with my magic as I use fire to heat the knife and press it to the severed stump to keep her from bleeding out.
"You could have used the silicone." Benjamin tells me, his very being disapproving of my actions.
"I'm not hurting her nearly as much as she did people through her life. Be thankful I didn't take the whole hand." I tell him, blinking back into Sinclair's house and pressing her thumb into the scanner. The safe pops open and I find the tablet resting on top of printed papers. Frowning I take the whole bundle. I hadn't seen printed paper in anything but our books. They're all digital, all tablets and here she has a stack of them.
"Is that paper?" Benjamin asks when I drop everything on the desk in the cell. With a nod I pick up the tablet and swipe it open only for it to tell me it required a rental scan. I walk over to Sinclair who closes her eyes, but I force them open with my magic.
"Defiant to the very end?" She of course doesn't answer me, but the tablet opens, and I go through it, disabling weapon after weapon I find. "Oh, wow. Plasma grenade? You'd turn the Bio-Glaze into a sink hole to keep your nasty little secrets hidden?" I ask, removing her silencing gag and she whimpers.
"You have no right to do this." She grits out and I sigh, taking a seat on the bed and placing the tablet next to me.
"No, Sinclair, you had no right to do any of this. Testing on hybrids, treating supernatural creatures like they're your own personal pets. You had us all believing it was for our safety, that they're violent and if left unchecked would kill us but you were the real threat. Everyone was blind to your games, but trust me, they're not going to be for longer. We're going to expose you and then we'll see how many you still have standing on your side after that. Don't worry though, I'll sweeten the deal. I won't kill you...yet." I smirk as the hope in her eyes come and goes. "I'll even give you back to them and you can tell them all about me, after I get what I need from your den of horrors."
"You can't do this!" She yells again and I look at Benjamin who nods.
"Actually, we can. Ragna?" He nods, walking over to her and whispers something in her ear that makes her eyes widen and causes her to look at him in such fear that she wets her pants. Embarrassment flushes over her face but I don't have time to comfort her.
"My work here is done." The hybrid mutters, stepping away and giving her a look that clearly says he's disgusted with her. I blink us all back into the control room where everyone is waiting with expectant gazes.
"Her depravity goes deeper than I've seen in humans for a while." Benjamin admits as he starts making changes on the map Ragna drew up for us. He indicates what each room does, codes for them and who works in them. Then he maps the underground tunnels that apparently lead to Glaze-Protect and proceeds to mark each hidden weapon they have. By the end it all looks like a horror show.
"We're going to have to prepare." Isa says and I nod in return.
"Xavier and I will program the robots. Luca, I need at least ten Fairies from you that can fight and I need about thirty that can keep us hidden until we're inside. Isa, Agness, I'm going to need scouts for that tunnel and Magnus, since you're so keen to help... you're going to be our scapegoat." The atmosphere in the room changes with every order given and when I turn away to start programming a fleet of robots, I know we've officially stepped into this war. There is nothing that can stop us from turning back now. No, our only option is to ride this out and see who survives in the end.
