"Look at these people..........."

"Look at them good."

As The Warden presented Y/N with haunting visuals of the catastrophic aftermath of their last assignment, she glared at the little girl with burning hatred, conveying a profound sense of disillusionment in her tone. "This, this, and this is on you." The Warden said, making Y/N frown and tightly grip the hem of her white dress. It was clear that The Warden was angry at Y/N, since she was the one who killed Pagan Min despite her orders not to do so. "So, I may have hesitated to pull the trigger once, but if you fuck up that bad again, be certain I won't make the same mistake twice." Y/N could only nod in response, feeling ashamed for her actions the other night.

It was a miracle that The Warden chose not to detonate Y/N's bomb, as it took a lot of convincing from Dolph for her to not go through with it. However, if Y/N did something like that again, then The Warden was going to blow her head up, with no negotiation at all. "I'm sorry........" Y/N whispered, tears starting to form in her eyes. The Warden noticed this, putting a hand on her hip as Y/N hiccuped a bit. "You think an apology will fix this?" The Warden asked, a sob escaping Y/N's lips while she shook her head no. The Warden soon sighed, going over to Y/N and kneeling in front of her so that they were both eye level with each other.

"Y/N... have you fully comprehended the repercussions of your actions?" The Warden's voice was stern, filled with a mix of disappointment and anger. Y/N's gaze dropped to the floor, her feet restlessly fidgeting as she felt the weight of their disapproval. "Yes..." she whispered, her voice barely audible. The Warden's expression softened slightly, but their forgiveness seemed distant. "Well, it will take a considerable amount of time before I can find it in my heart to forgive you." Y/N's heart sank, her guilt becoming even more palpable.

"I understand... it's just that..." Y/N's words were cut off abruptly as The Warden interrupted, their patience wearing thin. "Just what?" The Warden's voice was laced with frustration, causing Y/N to choke back a sob and take a step back. "I wanted to avenge Jade!" Y/N's voice cracked as tears streamed down her face, finally releasing the emotions she had been holding back. The Warden's eyes widened in surprise, not expecting such a raw display of emotion from Y/N. "Jade... she saved my life! I couldn't bear to let her sacrifice be in vain..." Y/N's voice trembled as she fell to her knees, memories of Jade's lifeless body flooding her mind. The image of Jade's headless corpse, a result of the detonation of her bomb, haunted Y/N, leaving the poor girl traumatized.

The Warden observed Y/N's tears, surprised by the depth of her emotions that had been suppressed until now. They let out a soft sigh and gently began to rub Y/N's back, attempting to offer some comfort, albeit in a condescending manner. Y/N looked up at The Warden, who now wore a smile on their face. "You're such a good girl... you know that?" The Warden's words were accompanied by a patronizing tone. Y/N nodded, wiping away her tears. "Daddy tells me that sometimes," she replied, her voice filled with a mix of vulnerability and uncertainty.

The Warden chuckled and stood up, extending a hand towards Y/N. She hesitated for a moment before cautiously accepting it, allowing The Warden to help her back onto her feet. As Y/N regained her balance, The Warden spoke, their voice carrying a hint of warning. "Your kind heart will get you into trouble..." Y/N's brows furrowed in confusion. "What do you mean?" she asked, her voice tinged with apprehension. The Warden's expression turned serious as they extended an invitation.

"I want to show you something......"

"Fun fact........I'm actually a mother~"

Strolling through the Supermaxx corridors, The Warden led the way, with Y/N trailing close behind. "You... have a kid?" Y/N inquired, and The Warden nodded, offering a small smile. "A daughter... she's actually around your age." Tilting her head in curiosity, Y/N became intrigued about The Warden's family. "Her name's Lumi..." "Lumi?" "Yes........I named her that because she's the light of my life." The Warden chuckled a bit, now stopping in front of a room. Upon entering the correct code into the keypad, the door swung open, and The Warden gestured for Y/N to enter first.

Y/N cautiously entered the room, discovering it to be some kind of lab. "What is this place?" she asked, but The Warden entered, and the door closed behind them. Ignoring Y/N's question, The Warden proceeded with her narrative. "Lumi was my whole world... she was the sweetest little thing you'll ever meet." Approaching a capsule containing a developing piece of clay, Y/N covered her mouth, suppressing a wave of nausea upon realizing that the body was slowly forming into a human body. "But.........she was also rebellious ......so very rebellious." The Warden paused for a moment, taking a deep breath before continuing on. "Lumi wanted to go to the moon......she wanted to leave me and Eden behind."

"The moon?" The Warden glanced back at Y/N, affirming silently, before making her way towards an incubator. "I apprehended Lumi attempting to flee... and I was filled with rage. I had repeatedly informed Lumi that reaching the moon was an impossible feat, but she never heeded my words." The Warden clenched her fists, haunted by a sorrowful recollection. "We had a heated argument, and without considering the consequences... I..." Y/N approached the incubator, curiosity piqued about its contents. However, as soon as Y/N laid eyes on it, a gentle gasp of astonishment escaped her lips.

The person in the incubator was...... Y/N?

But......that's impossible..........

Y/N was right there.........

Standing next to The Warden........

As Y/N hurriedly retreated from the incubator, she dashed out of the room. Yet, The Warden swiftly caught up, gripping Y/N's arm firmly and drawing the young girl closer to her. "You... you..." Y/N's disbelief overwhelmed them as they struggled to comprehend what she had witnessed, her determination to distance themselves from The Warden growing stronger. The Warden, wearing a cruel smile, seemed to derive satisfaction from Y/N's fear, fully aware of its impact.

"I'm guessing......you know Lumi's fate already, am I correct?"
