Elle

"Yes, She is the one in charge, and you would do best not to forget that title. Call her by that full name, or 'milady', but never just call her Carmine. Neither you nor I have earned that yet...." Yet? So at some point, she would be best friends with the lady in charge of this place? He led her up even more stairs, and soon she found herself in the presence of many, many people. Scientists. She shrunk back a little, eyes focused on the ground. Cameron himself even said the ones to be feared were the scientists. She managed to look up, but when she saw they were all staring at her, she dropped her gaze downward once again.

"Cameron, are they going to hurt me?" One last question. She whispered it too, making sure none of the scientists would hear it. Any of the other mutants could, yes, but they weren't there. When Elle spoke to him, she looked up one last time. She could see a window, with an image of the outside. She thought about running to it, wanting to fully see what was surrounding them. But at the last second, she thought about all of the scientists and stayed put.
