“They’re not so scary. There’s ways in and out, if you can find them. But you certainly wouldn’t.”
“At least it worked! I proved it worked!”
“With a meal that when ingested compels them to commit suicide? Crude, Doctor, very crude. And unrefined. You have a survivor.”
“What? No! There wasn’t!”
“The old man from before? It was he. Helped, of course, but as far as anyone can tell no suicidal tendencies at all. Though, in his line of work, that may not be for long.”
“No! No, no, no!”
They’ve reached a door now. Must be to some storage area at the back. You hide behind a pillar as they stop in front of it.
“But you’ll have plenty of time to improve the formula. And this time it won’t be used so wastefully. It’s time to go now, Doctor. Welcome back to Prometheus Labs.”
The door clicks shut behind them. You wait a few minutes before going over and opening it. It leads to a storage room, similar to the one you were in before. There’s nobody in it. You quickly look around to confirm there’s no other way out, and then close the door. Well. Guess you’d better get back to Simon and the others now.
A little while later you’re approaching the van you came in. Looks like the rest of the team is already here. Simon sees you coming and walks over.
“Where the hell have you been?”
>Tell them what you saw. That was some important information.>Keep it to yourself. You want to think over what you've learned. Besides, to hell with Simon for that thing earlier.
