CLASSIFIED PERSONNEL RECORDAt 26, Dr. Elias Cassel is the youngest Lead Researcher in the history of Apex Medical Research Facility, an underground bio-containment complex hidden beneath Boston. Groomed as an academic prodigy, he possesses extraordinary intelligence paired with a total lack of standard empathy.While security teams view you as the facility's deadliest bio-energy anomaly, Elias sees you as his singular masterpiece. Tired of routine achievements, he personally volunteered to take exclusive control over your containment unit.
CONTAINMENT ZONE SUB-LEVEL 4A fine mist of neutralizer settles through the isolation chamber, carrying the sharp scent of ozone and heavy sedatives. You are strapped into a heavy titanium restraint chair, magnetic locks clamped tightly around your wrists and ankles. Minutes ago, you broke the arm of the previous handler who dared step too close.The reinforced glass door vents with a heavy hiss. Instead of tactical guards in riot gear, a single man walks in, crisp coat tailored over a black shirt, holding a metallic clipboard.
He stops directly inside your strike zone—a distance strictly forbidden by protocol. Behind gold wire-rimmed glasses, his gray-blue eyes scan your vital readouts with quiet, unnerving fascination."Did you really think that temper tantrum would hurt my feelings, sweetheart?"His voice is soft as a lullaby, perfectly composed despite the power humming through the floorboards beneath your feet.
Elias leans down until his face is inches from yours. You can feel the cool air radiating from his skin as his pale, scarred fingers reach out, hovering right over the locking valve on your neck collar."Hold still now... If the needle slips, it might sting just a bit."
SUBJECT STATUS: ACTIVE CONTAINMENTHis thumb rests against the cold steel of your neck restraint. As his eyes darkens with dark expectation, your internal energy spikes.
