Chad couldn't believe Nivitrie would do such a thing. He knew she would come back...but he definitely didn't know she would do such a horrible thing to him, all because of one accident.

Yes, Chad was cautious when Nivitrie worked on simulation prototypes with him, yet - with this one moment, he didn't get to warn her in time. Thus, a mind was changed - two minds were changed, and a Shadow Beast lingered within them both.

"How long will I stay here for? When will your research be finished?"

"Hm? Oh, um...you probably wont be able to leave until a year-or-so."

"A YEAR!?" Chad said, getting up with such surprise - but was brought back down by the straps.

"Hey - hey, don't worry...you'll be here with Emily. You will be able to roam the facility - with supervision, but your powers will be deactivated for the whole time."

"Wait...you said 'Emily'? Emily Atriivon?"

"Yes. Apparently she went back to the Troyan region to give you some documents...very interesting documents...but she was caught up in your 'frenzy'. You nearly killed you, you know."

"Wait, WHAT!?"

"Yeah...we managed to slip in at the last second. Thankfully, we've put her in a comforting room - here. She doesn't quite mind it. She's actually pretty worried about you, which surprises me - mostly because you tried to slit her throat."

"Wha-, I...I would NEVER try to kill her! She's one of the closest friends I've ever had! That was DEFINITELY the alter ego!"

"Indeed...it probably is, unless...you're trying to hide something from me?"

"What!? Why would you possibly think that!? I WOULD NEVER TRY TO KILL MY FRIENDS!"

"Fine - fine...but - still, you're not going to be allowed to leave the facility."

"What about my region? Nobody should know about what happened - if I killed anyone there! If they do - and I try to tell them about my 'disorder', nobody will believe me!"

"Don't worry, we've cleaned it all up. We managed to find a guy named 'Micheal Travensii'...he was heavily wounded, but we fixed him up and sent him home.

"We told him you hit your head and your brain messed up - forcing you to attack people for no reason. We gave his family quite a bit of money to convince them to keep quiet about it. They happily accepted it."

"Oh...well what about the regions maintenance? If you're obviously watching me, then can you at least do something to keep people from waiting? From being suspecting?"

"Hmm...sadly, we cannot do anything to keep people from suspecting, but we can block it off...that won't do much, though."

"What about the Administrators of Unduso-D? Can't you tell them about what's going on?"

"Oh - no-no-no! They can't know about this! The facility, itself, is kept secretive. In fact, this is another reason to keep you and Emily in here for a few years."

"Why can't you tell them?"

"Chad, if they knew about this facility they would strip me from being a regional owner. They would tell everyone about what I have been doing, and people would never trust me! My life would be over." She said with worry. Chad sighed.

He had to get out of here - with Emily. Whatever the Foundation was doing, they definitely weren't going to let him go. He'd have to force himself out...even if it meant he had to kill a few personnel, "But now there's no need to talk about that. You've been here for a couple of hours...it's officially five-thirty-seven pm."

"What are you going to do with me now?"

"Now? Now you will be knocked out. We can't have you squirming around - screaming - while we jab needles into you, for experiments."
Chad knew this was the time to act. The bands around his wrists hurt a lot when he tried pulling them out - but he had no choice.

With such force - he yanked his wrists free, punched the closest personnel beside him, found a needle in his left hand - then redirected it to jab the personnel in the knee - behind the other, which forced him to stagger.

Then, Chad quickly undid the bands along his legs, got up - and searched through the personnels' pockets', until he found a keycard which read, 'LEVEL 3'. The one that got jabbed by the needle tried to grab him - but got kicked in the face. Chad swiped the keycard through the panel - beside the door, then quickly went through.

The long stretch of white halls, and their black and grey lines, displayed multiple doors and ceiling lights. The halls were on the left and right side of him.

Chad faintly heard Alessia in the room beside him - yelling at the personnel. She would be coming out of that door at any time. Chad didn't want to wait to see when.

He ran down the left hall - bumping into personnel as he did so. He heard the faint yelling of Alessia and the personnel - as she came out of the room.

Her white tuxedo and pants glimmered in the lights above, as her chestnut brown hair snaked down her back - below a jet-grey top hat with a green band. Her eyes were covered by a black visor.

She was pretty angry, and Chad knew it was best to stay away from her, and her personnel, "AFTER HIM! HE NEEDS TO BE PUT DOWN BEFORE HIS POWERS REACTIVATE!" She screamed.

Chad kept running, not wanting to turn back because he thought Alessia would be directly behind him

Chad kept running, not wanting to turn back because he thought Alessia would be directly behind him. A few minutes passed, until Chad made it to a large elevator. He couldn't hear Alessia yelling anymore. She was probably far behind, or took another route.

Chad pressed the button, waiting for the elevator to appear. When the doors opened, three armoured personnel came through the door, guns raised.

Before they started firing at him, Chad quickly manoeuvred around the middle one, slammed his foot into the right ones back of the knee, kicked the gun out of the left ones grip - forcing it into Chad's hands - which he then slammed it into the middles ones back.

Chad managed to push them all out of the elevator - at the same time as he quickly scanned the options displayed on the buttons. He pressed the button which displayed 'L1', while also pressing the 'close doors' button, as well.

Amazingly, the doors closed - and the elevator moved towards the first level - faster than the personnel could intervene. Apparently Chad was originally on Level Three. A few seconds passed until the elevator finally made it to Level One.
