"Why all the gloom and doom? Isn't it an HONOR to be here?"

0 · 321 views · located in Arizona Science Research Facility

a character in “there isn't an escape”, as played by MegaKooala12

Description

Douglas Holl
Image




Nickname: Simply known as "Doug".
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Mutation: Adaptive muscle memory/photographic memory/genius (however, he doesn't know it yet)
Eye Color: Hazel
Hair Color: Brown
Measurement: 5'8 (172.72 cm)Image

Personality: To understand Doug's personality, you must first know a little bit of his backstory. You see, both of Doug's parents used to be researchers at the Arizona Science Research Facility. For Doug, every day was "bring your child to work day". He got to watch the test subjects, take tours through the building, and even help on experiments. To put it simply, he was raised with the idea that being a mutation was a great honor. After all, in a few years, his parents would push him to become a mutation himself. He looked up to the tortured experiments as if they were role models. Even his friends from the facility influenced him to become one of them, and as he grew older, Doug knew that becoming a mutation was his destiny. He knew he had to become one of them; for the benefit of science.

Living as a rich kid has made Douglas spoiled and stubborn. He is used to getting what he wants. He is naive, but also very respectful of the rules that he must abide by. He is a generally positive and sociable person. His sense of optimism can throw people off guard at times, thus making him seem more annoying than he really is. Deep down inside, Douglas is actually very caring. He is sensitive and remarkably honest with others. (However, he isn't very honest with himself.) Not having any skills or talents of high value, Doug can be a little bit awkward. However, his positive nature greatly makes up for it.

Fears: Heights, small spaces, and drowning to death.

So begins...

Finch woke up from her bed in a gasp. What was that sound?

...A wolf howl. It was just another test subject, or caged animal, or whatever was happening outside of her room. Sighing, she let her tired body bounce back unto the rough bed. Maybe she'd have some time to sleep some more before testing. Her eyes were only closed for a minute, then she shot straight up once she heard the muffled sounds of someone yelling outside...

"In here? Here?? Is this it? Why here???"

Suddenly, a panel of the wall slid open, revealing two guards holding a boy by his shoulders. Finch was blinded by the new light from outside, and squinted. Sometimes, the light in her own room was so bright, that she forgot that there was a sliding panel by the front wall. It was so hard to see. The guards pushed the boy in, much to his surprise.

"Hey! What was that for? It's like you two don't even know who I AM!!"
"Shut up," one of the guards exclaimed with force. He then pointed at Finch, "Be nice."

The panel closed, and the boy stared at the now white wall. Finch still sat straight on her bed. Both had feelings of awe radiating through their bodies. Silence.
It was the new boy who took the initiative to speak first.
"I can't believe it! You'd think they'd treat me with more respect! Geez...."
He was still facing the wall as he abruptly broke the silence. His voice was a little bit too loud and erratic for Finch's comprehension. She didn't want to admit it to herself, but his voice sounded vaguely familiar, as if she had heard it once before. Once he turned around to face her, she knew why. He had light brown hair with dirty blonde streaks, his eyes were a quaint hazel, and his body was long and lean. She had seen him wandering around the facility dozens of times before. He was the son of one of the scientists.

How on earth was he in here with her? More importantly, why? Was this some sort of punishment for him? Why would the child of the scientists be sentenced to this torture?
"So uhhh......hi."
He was introducing himself. Finch didn't want to speak. She couldn't speak, not right now. There were too many questions in her mind. She was still in utter shock. To keep from being rude, she gave him an acknowledging nod. Although it wasn't the response he seemed to be looking for, he gave her a polite yet grim smile.
"I'm Douglas. You can call me Doug. Uhhhmmm...." his eyebrows scrunched up, as if trying to remember something, "do you like basketball?"
The question came out so randomly and awkwardly, it threw Finch off track.
"...What?"
"Y'know, the sport? Do you....do you know what it is? Do you like it?"
She knew she wouldn't be able to stand this. Not only was he annoyingly loud, but he was strange as well. She wondered if this would be worse than her wrists being pricked with sharp needles every day.
"I...uhhh...."

Suddenly, the boy's head jerked to the wall.
"What the....what's going on out there??"
Finch got up from the bed, and briskly walked to the where he stood. She leaned her ear against the hard white wall. Her eyes flickered as she listened. She gasped, and then turned to the 17-year-old. She was full of electricity as she exclaimed, "There's a commotion going on outside. Somebody's trying to escape! Quick, try to get their attention!"
Finch started screaming and banging the wall with her fists like a maniac. Once she got out of the room, escape would be so easy for her. She was just about to start mapping out the route she would take in her head, when she felt two sturdy arms grabbing her around her stomach. The boy was much stronger than he looked.

"What are you doing?! Let go of me!!" she struggled, but he brought her arms down below her head, and was already dragging her away from the wall, towards the center of the room. He cupped his hand around her mouth, and shushed her.
"Keep quiet, will you??? If you make a racket, that crazy mutant will come and find us, and most likely kill us! Do you want to get hurt or killed??"
"WHAT?!?!" Finch screamed, but the sound of her voice came out muffled thanks to his clammy palm over her mouth. She was shocked, and disgusted beyond belief. The moment she had been waiting for was here, perhaps the only time she would ever be able to escape, but this lunatic was preventing her from having her chance. He was insane. He was beyond normal. She struggled and tried to kick him, but she couldn't. Somehow he knew every move she was about to make. She would be stranded inside this room forever with the world's craziest man.

#, as written by Haas33
Alli leaped up, guards were already coming in. Adrenaline pumping, teeth bared, and eyes flashing, Alli extended her wings as far as they could go. She felt so freaking powerful, but her wings hurt, and use hurt all over. This pain fueled her anger. She started to growl. After electro-guy gave his little speech about fighting, a lli nodded to him in a strange wolf-like way, trying to say that yes she would fight, and boy would she enjoy it.

----

Ky shrugged as the electricity guy took the lead. Ky wasn't much of a leader anyway, but if the situation demanded it, he would. Hey. I'm sorry for being...rude. I am scared. Nevertheless...’ Ky almost jumped into the air. Someone was touching his shoulder. What had he just heard. Looking up at him was the girl with white hair. He smiled. ‘Do you have a plan? If we are to get out, we will need one. By the way, my name is Serina.’ Ky turned towards her. "Hi Serina. My name is Kyle. But I prefer Ky. I'm not sure about a plan. Stay alive I guess. If anything happens, stay behind me. I will protect you" he said. Odd. He felt such a strong urge to protect her.

With a loud crack, the door in the back burst open, guards flooding in. The girl in the glass box who had come out emitted a strange sound, and guards started dropping. There was a dull silence, but then Ky heard pounding and screaming before it abruptly stopped. Turning to the girl with the sonic scream, he asked "Did you hear that?" But it was too late to dwell much on it because more guards came in. Ky was still weak from using telekinesis, but he must protect Serina.

A guards came running toward them, and using his ming, he picked the guy up and flung him across the room. Another guard came, and using a rolling cage, he slammed the cage into the guard. Already he was feeling weak

----

Alli saw the guards come in. Some of them dropped to the ground, from some ear splitting sound a girl was emitting. Alli saw more guards come in, and with ferocity and viciousness, Alli let out a howl that rang throughout the room. Then Alli leaped into the air. She worked her wings up in down, trying to keep low to the ground. He clumsiness helped her in this case, because her massive furry blob rammed into at least three guards, mowing them down. Alli half landed half skidded to a halt not he ground, and launched herself at the nearest guard. Her long canines sunk into his neck and she pushed him away, and jumped to the next guard, he huge clawed paws slamming into him and crushing ribs. However, she was stopped cold by a painful shock to her back.

Alli yelped, falling to the ground. taser? Alli twitched uncontrollably, but regained herself and got back up, snarling at the man, before sinking her teeth into his flesh.

---

Ky enjoyed rolling his little cage cart around, running over guards, or just picking them up and flinging them. However, Wolfy was tearing them to shreds. it was disgusting to watch... but it was getting the job done.

''Go... leave... not me...'' Sari said, what made Stefano sigh. He stroke her back, then stood up. ''Hold on a moment,'' he said as he heard some banging from a wall. He walked over to it and saw it was actually a panel. ''Guys, there is a room behind this wall and I think there are more people behind it. I don't think I can break it, so someone should check it out and open the panel'' he said and pointed to the wall while walking back to Sari. ''Sari... I know how long you have been here, how old you are, and what they have done to you, and that you are scared. But I won't leave you, even if we are safe. I will stay with as long as we are free. I will stay by you, care for you and protect you,'' Stefano said and hold his hand out to her.

Stefano watched the others as he reached out to her. ''Guys if she doesn't want to come, I'm going to stay with her. No buts or try to argue with me, or even think of forcing me out. Cause Sari has had it a lot worse and deserves someone who cares for her,'' Stefano said, looking back at Sari and keeping his hand stuck out to her. ''I promise Sari, I will stay with you even if it means that I'm going to stay here with you forever, but I will comfort and care for you like you were my own.''

Roxanne

Roxanne giggled. "That's good enough for me!" She closed her eyes for a second. Three more Roxannes jumped out of her, all smiling and laughing. All four quickly ran off, working as a tag team for the most part. They would corner a couple scientists and knock them out cold with whatever they could get their hands on, be it an empty cage or a discarded clipboard. The scientist's fist came out of nowhere. "Oof!" she fell to the ground and gingerly rubbed her jaw. The scientists circled Roxanne, trying to grab her, but they forgot about Roxannes 2,3 and 4. The three knocked the scientists to the ground with a few quick swipes at their feet, and Roxanne jumped up. "Thanks, me," she smiled before looking back at Tris. "Don't die? But that's what I was going to do next!" Roxanne dove out of the way as a scientist shot a taser at her.

She looked over at another girl in time to see her scream at the guards and fly into the wall. "Neat." Roxanne nodded from the girl to the wall that new guy had just pointed out. "My guess is that you could help with the person stuck behind that secret door over there. I doubt any of the rest of us could pull it off as easily." She turned to look at new guy again. ''Guys if she doesn't want to come, I'm going to stay with her. No buts or try to argue with me, or even think of forcing me out. Cause Sari has had it a lot worse and deserves someone who cares for her,'' All the Roxannes ran over and turned their backs towards the two, watching out for any scientists coming their way. If he was going to try and convince Sari to come, he would need someone, or s few someones, guarding them from unexpected ambushes.

Serina Metique

Serina nodded as Kyle informed her of his thoughts, not that she really needed to know verbally, but it was a briefly comforting thought to feel even the slightest bit normal. "Hi Serina. My name is Kyle. But I prefer Ky. I'm not sure about a plan. Stay alive I guess. If anything happens, stay behind me. I will protect you" Serina fell in behind him, willing to do anything to stay out of harm's way. Heaven forbid she die just because she didn't have such strong powers as all the others. She peered around Kyle at the bloodied sight ahead of them. The wolf had torn into the guards and the sight was enough to bring a fresh batch of nausea swinging right into Serina's stomach. She raised her hand to her mouth and unconsciously grabbed Kyle's hand. The strange girl who had been silent til now let out a sound so loud that it made Serina's head pound. Although, she knew she was just picking up on the pain from all the killing around her. She tried to keep the feelings boxed in lest she transmit the feeling to someone nearby. Serina's eyes watered with the struggle but Kyle looked worser off. She felt him tire and stepped in front of him hoping that her passive power would work.

The guard paused amidst all the bloodshed and killing. 'Stop. Don't move. Why bother moving when all your friends, your coworkers, and your bosses are all dead? Don't I want to leave? If I don't leave, the killing won't stop. It will go all the way back to where your wife, and your one son are sleeping at home. I will lose them too. The mutants won't be happy if I try and hurt them.' The guard started to struggle against her persuasion but she persisted, squinting in effort. 'They might be pleased only if I die. I need to die. There is nothing left. No one will miss me.' Her voice had taken on his own and now she could feel his brainwaves shift, just slightly. 'Yes, its now or never. Maybe I should just take my life, rather than die at the hands of a defiled mutant. Yes, that's right. I should take my gun and do it. I won't let them have the final say on my life.' By this point, the guard raised his pistol and pointed it at his forehead. Serina staggered forward and lightly touched his arm. 'Goodbye.' She felt the brief flicker of pain before sleep began to tug at her conscious. It was as if everything slowed down to a point, teetering on the edge of an abyss so deep that there would be no coming back. She ripped her hand off of the guard and frowned, staring down at his limp body beneath her. In all, the exchange had taken only a few seconds.

Serina looked over her shoulder to Kyle with a painful smile. However, it was quickly interrupted as a sharp thought came across clearly through the din of pain, fear, and anger. "Someone is nearby. They can't get out and someone is stopping them." Serina turned and ran past a guard being beaten back by some cages and slipped out into the halls. She continued to run, blinded by her emotions and powers, until she reached a door. A keypad sat beside the door and Serina stared at it. "I need a passcode." Serina reached for the keypad, extending her powers to any person nearby and ignored the ones inside the room. Several guards were thinking about the mutants and thoughts swirled around in a pool of knowledge but it wasn't what she needed. The white-haired girl reached for any deeper thoughts and sent out a mass message with a few words attached, 'passcode, sliding door' Serveral key codes appeared instantly and Serina tried them all until a five digit code finally registered. The doors opened up to reveal two figures struggling. The lights in the room blinded Serina but she ran in and pushed the two figures hoping that one would give way to her feeble attempt to separate them. "We need to go!" She screeched, her scratchy unused voice almost too soft for any real scream but it was enough she supposed. As there eyes adjusted to the light she saw the female who she had heard before and a strange male who felt...off. She squared off against the male and raised her fists. "Leave her alone." She felt the tremble go through her short body but at least she had some courage left. She directed her thoughts to the female. 'All of the mutants are escaping. I heard you before but I can't fight too well...I hope you know how to run. The door probably won't stay open for too much longer.'

For a long time, there was silence. The lights flickered overhead, and there was an uneasy tension in the contained white room. Doug still had his arms around Finch, as if he knew she would try to draw attention again. She knew he was right, but were his obscene actions really necessary? She knew she could slide right through his arms, separating her atoms through his, but she wasn't willing to try any experiments at the moment. Depending upon the location, she could deal some serious damage when she phased through humans. The worst that had happened was when she passed through a scientist, and he collapsed unto the ground unconscious. Later, she found out that her phasing had caused him internal bleeding in his brain.

Suddenly, the two adolescents could hear the clicking of the keypad outside. From the way there was a short pause between each beeping sound the numbered buttons made when they were pressed, Finch knew it wasn't a scientist. She struggled even harder this time, but Doug was still able to hold her back. How hard was his grip? Did he have a mutation of super strength or something??
Before she could scream in order to get the person's attention, the door opened, revealing a pale-skinned girl with unusual wispy white hair.

At first, everything seemed to stop. The two teens seemed to stop in their tracks over the sight of their rescuer. She looked as if she had come out of a storybook. She wasn't expecting someone like her to open the door, although the girl looked as though she was around her own age. Feeling a slight loosening in his grip, Finch struggled against Doug yet again. Now he was pulling her to the corner of the room. It was almost silly. If the girl were an actual attacker, backing into the corner would only give them a disadvantage. "We need to go!" the girl screamed, trying to separate the two. From the way her voice sounded, Finch had a feeling she hadn't spoken in a while. At least she wasn't the only one. When the boy wouldn't give in, the girl raised her fist in anger. Finch had to hold in laughter. The furious expression on the innocent-appearing girl's face looked as though it had been painted on. She had to admit, it was cute in its own way.

"Leave her alone." she scolded. The strength from Doug that had binded Finch's body reduced to nothing, and he raised his arms over his shoulders, as well as taking a step back. Finch couldn't tell whether he did this out of shock, cowardice, or both. Whatever the reason, she was glad to be free from his clammy hands.
'All of the mutants are escaping. I heard you before but I can't fight too well...I hope you know how to run. The door probably won't stay open for too much longer.'
Where on earth did that come from? It sounded like the girl's voice, but the sound was clearer and softer. Finch stared into the girl's eyes, her brow raised, and then suddenly, she got it.
The girl was telepathic.
That's how she was able to figure out the code to the room. That's if she had mind control as well. Who knew? Finch would ask questions later, but for now, she would concentrating on getting out of her white prison cell.

Finch gave an acknowledging nod to the white-haired mutant girl. "Okay," she said with her naturally deep voice.
As she started to move to the open panel, she could hear her partner's loud questions booming behind her.
"'Okay'? Wha?? Why did you just do that? Err...say that out of nowhere?? Wha-"
"Doug, are you coming or what?"
Finch almost couldn't believe how unaturally powerful and chivalrous her voice sounded.
She listened for a response, but he was silent for once. From the way his pupils flickered in their sockets, she assumed that the answer was an obvious 'no'.
She turned back to the girl as she left the room into the hallway, "I may not have any offensive powers, but I am able to-"

Something had whizzed past her head in the middle of her sentence. She flipped her head around, finding a guard with a tranq gun just feet in front of her. She made a quick gasp. Her eyes widened, and she payed attention to his finger on the trigger. As the next dart flew at full speed towards her, she concentrated, and the missile flew past her as if it had slipped through liquid. With great speed, Finch ran towards the man, and closed her eyes. When she opened them, he was gone. From the sound of moaning behind her, she realized she had ran right past him. She turned around just in time to see him drop to his knees. It was like he was on the verge of a coma. Wasting no time, Finch kicked him in the back of the neck, knocking him unto his back. He grunted, and as he lay motionless, she kurt stomped the ground as hard as she could. He was out cold.

Finch turned back to the girl, "...i can, uh,...do that."

(OCC.. Oki!! I'll post... Also.. Melyssa???? If you want to join, use the cage I opened OKI???)

Tris heard Roxanne ask if he was OK but he passed without answering. The sudden mood swing had left him angry. "Lets get out of this place." he said to the others. Even though he had use much of his power, he still had power left. "Sorry I ignored you... I'm fine... I think...." he said to Roxanne as he tried to calm himself.

He saw a unopened cage on the way out. 'Ha!... What do you know? I thought I opened every cage...' he thought as he busted open the cage. Then he turned to ward the one door. Normally, he wouldn't want to go through that door intentionally. However, this time, they were going to escape. "Follow if you want... Stay if you wish..." he murmured as he stepped into the white room, to ... in the middle of a desert????

Roxanne


When Tris walked past without a word, Roxanne frowned. Geez, when did he swallow a lemon and get so sour? He was back a few seconds later apologizing, however. She shrugged it off and gave him a grin. "No biggie. But let me know if you need to take a break or something." Roxanne looked around quickly. "Once we're out of here, of course." She gave everyone a quick glance. Were they really wanting to stay somewhere that they'd been experimented on and tortured their whole life?

Tris started leaving, so Roxanne hesitated no further. No way on earth was she staying here! She wasn't looking, however, and almost crashed into him when he stopped abruptly. "Wha-?" Roxanne's mouth dropped open. A desert? Really? She sighed before turning to Tris. "So... Where are we headed?"
