megalopolis is beautiful. [break][break]
but that's it. [break][break]
the week passes - though if you asked her, she wouldn't be able to tell you what happened. she works, she showers, sometimes she's rewarded in the chamber of desires. unfortunately, there's a distinct lack of it by the end of the week. she's tired, and alive (
and the person sitting in her mind isn't h--)[break][break]
but then something changes - changes in her and changes in the other prisoners. something wells up, though she thought that the tears she shed were in vain. she thought that if she shed them enough in the dream, she would have no need to shed them in the waking world - it seemed like she was wrong when warm tears finally fall down her cheeks. [break][break]
get to the bottom of your prison.[break][break]
the voice echoes in her head, and it looked like this resolve extended to the other prisoners. when she awakens, the glisten of crystals both above and in her hand catch her attention. they're gems she's used before - gems she's given her shedinja, a pokemon who was free from this rotten hell. followed by this, a brief moment of stinging pain comes from the chain. it's worse than all the other times, bringing her to her knees with a cough and a hack. [break][break]
it reminds her of old times, where she would disappear into the crevices of her mind to escape and to run. it reminds her of old times where she would be scared, unable to fight back, and quietly comply with what's told to her. follow instructions, keep your head down, and no harm will befall you. it's what she's taught by mother and father alike, and it's so embarrassing that she's thinking about them now. she, who's so ready to lay down her life in this hell-forsaken world was tired, yet didn't want to feel pain. [break][break]
something sprouts - a seed, however slight. darkness surrounds her, and yet she wants to go
home. she wants to go back to that hell-forsaken place that's hoenn,
back to her every day life,
back to what freedom she had -
back to when she had a fighting chance. unlike before, there are people waiting for her and people who needed her - there are people who need sav-[break][break]
there's research to be done.[break][break]
she's silent as another day's work begins, then a riot breaks out. there's chaos, everywhere. there's blood, bones, screams and cries. the doctor is quick too duck throughout the chaos, her desires hadn't quite manifested - until a body is hurled her direction, splattering on the wall behind her. it crunches and writhes behind her, and the doctor pauses. [break][break]
what did she
really want?[break][break]
it hits her hard - hard enough to make her stagger with a smile unlike her (
one she hasn't worn in years). marisol doesn't want much - she only wants to heal, and treat, and restore. the nurse only wants to save,
but is it worth saving? [break][break]
maybe oblivion was the better choice. [break][break]
and marisol is a hypocrite.[break][break]
her chain slithers around her neck, coiling tighter, tighter, as though wringing her of the poison that's welled up in her body. it stops, at one point, and its glow becomes similar to the deep violet hue of her other eye. it expands, parting and sliding from her neck down to her arms, then split into numerous, thorny tendrils towards the closest deceased body. the chains wrap around the dead, defiling them with eerie violet - yet the thorns meticulously dig themselves into the veins and arteries, like a snake sinking fangs into the prey. [break][break]
a miracle happens. [break][break]
the body swells - uncomfortable bubbling and sloshing aside - and grows. muscle is formed, purple agent fills the veins of the dead. the putrid smell of decay fills the area around it, but it doesn't care when the chains finally pull away from the corpse, and latch onto another; like an unsatiable beast. this time, however, as marisol briefly stares at her grotesque creation, reason returns to her decrepit mind. she isn't a monster yet (
or maybe she's too far gone). [break][break]
the smile hidden under the mask says otherwise. [break][break]
the doctor quickly makes it to the platform, using the newly formed.. zombie.. golems(?) to clear her path. there are only two, however, and their power is near tenfold their original capabilities. it's a shame she can't think about it, even after reaching the elevator platform where stands
Cillian Quinn ,
Kyrenai Black and others. [break][break]
there are still others fighting by the time she reaches the elevator, and there's a moment of peace as violence continues around them. the two undead stand stationary, with only the command to protect their raiser. it's then where she barks out a command - what expression was she wearing under the mask? whose voice was it barking out the commands?[break][break]
"protect them." she's pointing to the other prisoners, her mind is fuzzy and she tries to recover. it's so odd, feeling the spark of life ignite when you were moments away from despairing death. though her lips speak to protect, her duo raised take the command that resounded, so loudly, in her mind as they turn to the other guards and, eventually, the dog-like warden.[break][break]
kill them all.
