The White Lights

I could hear voices. Low and monotonous. Going on and one about something... subject? Testing... it didn't make any sense. Then again I barely had any recollection of the last few events that happened. I recalled feeling euphoric and flooded with power. Obviously Tucker and Amy had enough of me and opted to cut me loose. Their loss of course ( Read more... )

Man, was I tired. The events of the night had finally begun to take their toll on me. First, Bailey being appointed the leader of Alpha squad during the mission to capture the succubus -which had been wearing on me at the back of my mind all evening- and then my own failure at capturing the succubus on my own. Hayes had done well alright, but my own mistakes and my attempt at ending the mission myself had almost brought the whole team down.

Almost immediately after Delta team had arrived to take the succubus back to the Initiative, I had said quick goodbyes to Bailey and the rest of the team. All I wanted to do was get back to the dorm, and sleep. But my duties called me back to the Initiative before I'd even gotten halfway back to campus. I was expected to be there when the succubus woke up, probably to oversee some new experiment or other that Professor Walsh had cooked up in the past few weeks. This mission was very important to her ( ... )

Something was more than wrong about this situation. I was being held captive, I could at least figure that out. However the blank spots in my memory were becoming a greater problem for me. That and the fact that I was soon losing all feeling throughout my body. Whatever toxin they were running through my blood stream was having it's ill effects on me, and at a rapid rate.

"That's not going to work."

I heard a voice, familiar yet distant from where I was being kept. I turned my head trying to seek out the source of it. It was him. The blonde from the night before... I should have sensed something was wrong. I had felt it a moment before the girl had struck me. He had been too easy a mark. Even when I had him in my grasp though I knew something was off. There was something working against his own body.

"Even if you could get free, I highly doubt you could drain all of us here, before we finally caught up with you again. You wouldn't even make it to the doorway."He glanced to a doorway. Probably the way out of this place. He was right ( ... )

I had just barely pulled on my sweats when I got the call. I don't know what I was thinking when I thought I might actually have the night off. You know, catch up on some old movies and I don't know, sleep. Silly me, I must be completely out of my mind or something ( ... )

Everything had happened in a minute. The last minute, I had been overlooking the group of scientests, as they stood over their newest test subject, poking and prodding the succubus, who- to any normal bystander- would have thought was just a normal girl. That was creepy in and of itself. But I had become used to seeing it happen. I had not however, anticipated watching the succubus begin to sit up, pulling away from the men experimenting on her.

My eyes grew wide as she sat straight upwards on the table, and my first instinct forced me to move forward, to try and contain her for the sake of the Iniative, and whatever Professor Walsh had wanted us to keep her alive for.

"Ah, ah, ah... remember what happened last time!" The succubus chimed to me, shaking her finger in my direction. I stopped in my tracks, realizing that my original idea was definatly not the best plan. Behind me, I heard something land on the floor, thudding softly, and my head whipped to the side just in time to watch Agent Hayes running past me.

"Yeah, I kicked ( ... )

I was pretty pleased with myself. Of course it was to be expected that I was something more than they knew what to deal with. However I wasn't pleased when the bitch that sent me flying thudded to the ground beside me. It must have been whatever they had pumped into me because I wasn't as quick as I would have liked to be. With a few kicks I was to the ground again, complete with her snarky comments about the night before.

I needed a moment to think. Of course like a typical male I could sense that he was feeling a bit less than preppared. I watched out of the corner of my eye as he went for a weapon, that wasn't there. I smiled and just waited.

"Can you handle her again?"He stepped closer... that was just what I needed. A bit of a fix. The girl turned to him, more confident about her strike down than she should have been. I might have been drugged but my system was running through the stuff like it was water, and soon I would be back up to what was normal for me. I was metabolizing the drug and without the IV in me pumping it in, ( ... )

Obviously Agent Hayes could handle her. I watched as she swooped into action, using just one kick to level her. Way faster then I thought it would take orignally. Weaponless, I stepped forward cautiously once more, waiting for Bailey, or the doctors to take action and tie the creature up again. I actually thought it was over now, and smiled proudly at Agent Hayes, nodding to her and silently congratulating her for a job well done.

Knocked out again, the succubus' knuckles dragged along the floor as they began to pick her up and move her back to the table. So, of course I was shocked when the succubus moved quickly, placing her hands on the floor and dragging the doctors to the ground with her. 'Note to self, suggest more powerful drugs for any succubus we may encounter in the future.' I thought quickly, stepping backwards again, and into a fighting stance ( ... )

The Succubus was definitely stronger than I had expected. Or I guess she could have been smarter, but I didn't want to give her too much credit. But if she was, then she was definitely going to be risk to the Initiative. We couldn't have her running around killing people. Sure we needed her for research, but at what price? I'm going to have to have a discussion with Walsh about this later. Maybe even suggest a transfer to one of the facilities in Washington.

I watched as Riley stepped into action and quickly pined the girl under him. Bold move for someone she had just taken a 'taste' of...a light grin fell across my face. No wonder he was Walsh's golden boy.

"Can you help me here? I don't think I should be standing so close." His voice snapped me out of my little daydream, and I looked around to see pretty much everyone standing around clueless. No it's okay, I can deal with this without any help. Refraining from rolling my eyes I quickly assessed the situation. We needed to get her secured, but unfortunately I left any ( ... )

Agent Hayes, always the quick thinker, tore the IV tubing away from its stand, and I moved just enough to let her by to tie the succubus's hands behind her back, before stepping far enough away to feel safe, and to not worry about having my energy sapped anymore then it already had. At this point in time, I wasn't really sure I would be able to handle another accosting from the Succubus. My day had been superbly long, and my energy was already nearly gone.

"We need to get her contained and discuss the risk factors with Walsh before further experimentation commences."Agent Hayes said, snapping me back to reality again. She was tying the form of the girl back down to the table now. I felt like I should have been helping, but at the moment, I could do no more then offer my helpful comments to her from the sidelines. "Yeah, you're right." I offered helpfully, trying to rub the lack of sleep out of my eyes before looking up again ( ... )

"How long do you think this'll be exactly?"His question caused my gaze to shift up to his face. Poor guy look extremely exhausted. Couldn't really blame him though, not only did the Succubus work her magic on him twice tonight, but it was nearing dawn. Without thinking, my hand touched his arm. "Shouldn't take too long," I replied before pulling my hand away. Whoa there Bailey, what was that all about ( ... )

((Sorry for the lack of post-age, I went to reply here like a week ago, and it didn't go through, and then I kinda forgot that I had to retype my post...))

"Shouldn't take too long,"

Bailey seemed to understand and see just how worn out I was. Her hand rested on my arm for a brief moment as she answered my question. It was a comforting touch, and for that brief moment, I had been about to turn to her, and smile; give her some indication that it was good to know she cared how I was feeling... Until her hand pulled away.

I forced an awkward cough then, and pretended that I hadn't noticed her being so forward, staying silent as we continued down the hallways of the Initiative. My eyes stayed locked onto the succubus which was still strapped down to the gurney at the front of the line. She did seem to be totally out of it again. 'But she looked like that last time, didn't she Riley?' he asked himself, remembering her hand on his face, sapping away his strength for the second time that evening ( ... )

"A ride home sounds nice right about now."

I let a light smile show through in hopes of making him feel a little better. I know that if I was in his place and looking like the walking dead I would feel more than a little self conscious. But it wasn't his fault, and I hoped the smile would kind of get that point across. None of the other agents here could blame him after all that had happened tonight. Hell, if it was anyone else, they wouldn't have still been standing.

"See? More tired then you thought, huh?"I let out a soft laugh and could feel it causing my eyes to twinkle. There was just something about Finn that just made me feel...well, no need to think about that right now. He's just nice to be around is all. Maybe it's just because it's really late and I'm just about as tired, or at least should be. Mentally I kicked myself. I shouldn't be feeling this way, especially toward another agent ( ... )

There was something about this girl. She seemed to counter all the effects that the succubus tried to throw at me. Her smile found a way to get to me, and wake me up enough to keep me from falling unconcious on the spot. I didn't want to embarass myself in front of her any more then I had, so I forced myself to stop complaining, and focus more on just being myself. At least until I got back to the dorms and finally fell asleep ( ... )
