Bethany lays on Grayson's chest in his arms as he rests his eyes, her doing the same in his shared apartment where Ester, Mikey and Solayo reside. Sitting not far from Bethany and Grayson is an empty cheese, chocolate and fruit platter and an elequoant empty bottle, two glasses.209Please respect copyright.PENANAThHkbONCSF
209Please respect copyright.PENANAQctUx42CLi
The sun is setting for the day, his friends are returning for the day. "So... how'd it go... with..." Mikey keeps stuttering.209Please respect copyright.PENANAYOo1MehVBy
209Please respect copyright.PENANAxsv3lU7NhX
"It went fine with Cloud. He helped me out."209Please respect copyright.PENANAdX8EKpKlY9
209Please respect copyright.PENANAHOKSXfrxEF
"I'm suprised his..."209Please respect copyright.PENANAzOddWBTest
209Please respect copyright.PENANAU4WOnMlToV
"He just doesn't wanna stay down there miserable that bastard. His doing this for himself rather than for the benfit of everyone in this community, to get time outside."209Please respect copyright.PENANA5lXYtG4cof
209Please respect copyright.PENANAQdZqnfe8YS
"Well, it's not really time outside. He doesn't get to go out onto the farm or anything. It's still the lower floors in the minus." Estes speaks up.209Please respect copyright.PENANANzoYoFhmC5
209Please respect copyright.PENANATHjKQgRnqe
"Yeah, his not getting a chance of sunlight till I'm confident his fully moldable." Solayo responds. 209Please respect copyright.PENANAtu3SEYbzry
209Please respect copyright.PENANA94APoc71cT
"And... how long are we going to keep the rest down there?" Mikey whispers.209Please respect copyright.PENANAUbwwa1WHVI
209Please respect copyright.PENANAYP0xHeRv6m
"As long as it takes all of them. One doesn't get to leave, they all have to be ready. The chaos that would ensue if each one isn't ready and able to cope- What are you doing, Grayson?" Solayo speaks up, eyes annoyed when he sees Beth, the food and the booze.209Please respect copyright.PENANAtYHjRSsvsm
209Please respect copyright.PENANAdjnGtjmIjG
He opens his eyes, realizing his food is back. Mikey eyes Grayson boxers on the floor. "Uh, his fooling around-"209Please respect copyright.PENANAtBd10por31
209Please respect copyright.PENANAjhOZ2uzPyB
"I don't advise you-" Ester adds on, cutting Mikey off, but Solayo cuts her off.209Please respect copyright.PENANAgljyk4C3jR
209Please respect copyright.PENANAAadcPLA6kF
"Shut up both of you. Grayson, please get your boxers on and yes or no, answer me honestly. Are you fooling around or do you like her? Because we have spent the last two months getting the ones who came back on meds as well, and this could disrupt her regime.209Please respect copyright.PENANAKsBKYBna71
209Please respect copyright.PENANAEvZDnEk7Rg
What if she freaks out on you and realizes what she's doing?"209Please respect copyright.PENANARf8JI9l1hN
209Please respect copyright.PENANAghtjOklykR
"She won't freak out. Merge erases their backstory, but not your consciousness. She wanted to- what her and me did, we both wanted this.209Please respect copyright.PENANAM211Eoiv9i
209Please respect copyright.PENANAfmVPfkIo2N
And I like her, she's really pretty and I'm better for her anyway."209Please respect copyright.PENANAT7tL6rBn5F
209Please respect copyright.PENANAzykUNmSMfF
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure if Slate knew, he'd have something to say about that-" But Mikey doesn't get to finish, Solayo backhanding him behind the ear. "I'm sorry, Solayo." 209Please respect copyright.PENANApTxR8t0eKG
209Please respect copyright.PENANAtYt1DglF5m
"He wouldn't, neither him or her barely remember eachother. She forgot how she came here, and now she forgot being here and escaping and it's the same for him." Solayo hisses. "As far as those two are concerned, the other is just a stranger who resides on the same floor as and they don't know how they got here except the false story I told them, they came at diffrent times.209Please respect copyright.PENANABGvPN9X0PU
209Please respect copyright.PENANAspvcPuTEq6
They barely interact socially."209Please respect copyright.PENANABRX69rLP2N
209Please respect copyright.PENANAiwOLkBaf8M
"Gray, for fuck sake. Just pick up your pants." Ester says annoyed. "Hey, baby. I'm sorry, I'm just goanna move for a second." Grayson tells Beth gently, moving her head off his lap, pulling the bed sheet around him while he grabs his pants.209Please respect copyright.PENANA0HhHvyBvDa
209Please respect copyright.PENANAkFJav2xexR
Unlike him, she is clothed kind of. Nothing is showing, but it's just undergarments on. She sits up, tired and confused.209Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9HZkV8PAR
209Please respect copyright.PENANAWbpWkoKtKY
"And while we're on the topic of sex, tell me you use a goddamn condomn." Ester adds on.209Please respect copyright.PENANASPjn7MAfJB
209Please respect copyright.PENANAJAo1xZsZM4
"Uh..."209Please respect copyright.PENANAdJxffHejP7
209Please respect copyright.PENANAVIXkVj2WKR
"You fucking idiot, Gray!"209Please respect copyright.PENANAdvS71LcLl3
209Please respect copyright.PENANAQUuOtKifWK
"Ester, I'm sorry-"209Please respect copyright.PENANAiBqL6i0pVi

"Don't you Ester me!"209Please respect copyright.PENANAw5OPwX75iu
209Please respect copyright.PENANAcR8hjxUxQ8
"Listen to her." Solayo snarls. "Now, I'm going to go set the table now for dinner. Get Beth dressed again and take her backdownstairs-" 209Please respect copyright.PENANAocKiJGHtUg
209Please respect copyright.PENANAhprDofA6JH
When there is a squeal, Beth diving for the small cheese knife. It's on the blunt side, but it's the only weapon in sight.209Please respect copyright.PENANA2MEvGs8giV
209Please respect copyright.PENANAUFf1kRDyfo
"Beth-" Gray begins, his pants now on and he drops the bed sheet.209Please respect copyright.PENANABO7TOQWxfU
209Please respect copyright.PENANA0hU8ARWgbD
"You sick fuck! What did you do?! How did I get here!" She screams, focusing on Grayson not noticing Solayo prepping a needle.209Please respect copyright.PENANAOwzsV4Jm4x
209Please respect copyright.PENANA84K4ViK8NI
"And that's what we we're worried about, ya pervert." Mikey chastisies him.209Please respect copyright.PENANAmTzaoWHgNr
209Please respect copyright.PENANABdd64oNLqQ
"She's 19!" Grayson shouts back.209Please respect copyright.PENANAzl8xbgwmTv
"We don't care, her meds are the problem! The open alochol there, the endorphines from- I'm not going to finish that last part!" Ester yells back.209Please respect copyright.PENANALWPJb8U7Ka
209Please respect copyright.PENANAoV4sUVROkx
"What did you do! What did we do!" Beth yells again at Grayson threatening him with the knife.209Please respect copyright.PENANAPvRRFGCgOk
209Please respect copyright.PENANALOa1nvzLHA
"You don't remember us talking and-" 209Please respect copyright.PENANAf7zdVzb0FN
209Please respect copyright.PENANAt5VawRndAj
But she doesn't let him finish. "Shut up! I don't wanna hear it! You're sick. You fucking sicko!"209Please respect copyright.PENANAL0C6RtQgWI
209Please respect copyright.PENANAlPlU5nej54
"Beth, I know you're scared. But I need you to hand over the knife. Can you do that? Hand it to me?" Mikey coaxes, gently sliding towards Bethany, gesturing with his hand when she aims it at him, threatening him too.209Please respect copyright.PENANA9wC9I3s0TN
209Please respect copyright.PENANABsaMTltlAp
"Woah!"209Please respect copyright.PENANAZFzggzHux2
209Please respect copyright.PENANAzFm5uaVWR7
"Solayo!" Ester calls out. 209Please respect copyright.PENANANJkHH4fhgV
209Please respect copyright.PENANAHpWqBJ8mkc
"Handle it!" He calls back. It takes a bit, but Mikey manages to calm her down enough that she hands over the knife.209Please respect copyright.PENANAhhns2CXiVD
"There we go. Beth, can you let Ester here help you dress?"209Please respect copyright.PENANA5pETQ1d4fn
209Please respect copyright.PENANAsusQUVYiB0
She nods softly and Ester helps her, Mikey putting the knife away and forcing Grayson to walk and talk with him.209Please respect copyright.PENANAJYAYath2p8
209Please respect copyright.PENANAcgt5fceH0e
When Beth's dressed, Ester has her sit and Mikey comes back over to them while Grayson hangs back a short distance. Solayo comes back over.209Please respect copyright.PENANANB8AHVEIsh
209Please respect copyright.PENANAvHwOjY81H8
"Now, Beth. This won't hurt much, just a small prick-" But she dives away, Mikey grabbing her by the foot and pulling her back. "No, you don't!" He yells. 209Please respect copyright.PENANA4Ehq9lPE1J
209Please respect copyright.PENANA8pDEC25Hd1
"Let go of me!" Beth yells at him, Ester stepping away as Solayo takes her other arm, assisting and presses down with the needle. "No, no! Ah-" She cries, starting to cry. 209Please respect copyright.PENANAvOyUMPvB98
209Please respect copyright.PENANAGdgmDQ0E1J
He and Mikey roughly pick her up and move her from Grayson's bed to Ester, on account hers as restraints attached already... they secure them.209Please respect copyright.PENANA7j45D3ML0u
209Please respect copyright.PENANAfpjoXiu6Qh
Ester sitting beside Mikey on his bed as they have dinner, Grayson on his own and Solayo on his own. They're almost finished when Beth wakes up a bit. Solayo quickly places his plate aside, hops down to Beth's level gently brushing her hair aside and keeps brushing her forehead.209Please respect copyright.PENANAMb2SMrLgzn
209Please respect copyright.PENANAvNFplrNzsq
"How we feeling, darling?"
"T-tired."209Please respect copyright.PENANAGoKwEZQpOJ
209Please respect copyright.PENANAwOinpIroAr
"Yeah. Can we take you back to your room now? Are you calm enough?"209Please respect copyright.PENANALyfG2jwJlR
209Please respect copyright.PENANAv6vxhV0CII
She nods weakly, struggling to keep her eyes open. "Okay, let's go there then." and he undoes the straps, lifting her up in his arms. "Mikey, with me. You both, stay here." He says annoyed as he leaves their apartment with Beth, Mikey following.209Please respect copyright.PENANA1Y3UyANgaT
209Please respect copyright.PENANA97iC1879f5
Outside, he gives Mikey his pass and have him swipe the door rendering Ester and Grayson's pass useless, then gives it back to Solayo who snatches it and continues off towards the elevator. 209Please respect copyright.PENANAPz6tDGaG3L
209Please respect copyright.PENANAzDj74CD1Dj
When they head to floor 13, the rest of our group is dressed and ready for bed having had dinner when they see Solayo and Mikey with bed.209Please respect copyright.PENANAJMD44rQbze
209Please respect copyright.PENANA983PxPYvzg
"Evening, Solayo." Slate whispers softly looking tired and drugged out. 209Please respect copyright.PENANA0VkVgaLQm8
209Please respect copyright.PENANAf3tpZcg52X
"Evening, Slate. You ready for bed? How was dinner?"209Please respect copyright.PENANAm9MYDjs6zI
209Please respect copyright.PENANACtVXllh3xY
"Good."209Please respect copyright.PENANASOIVBzhP1n
209Please respect copyright.PENANAfxeSjSqaNS
"Good. You know the drill, boy." 209Please respect copyright.PENANAiAgZXDgI0b
209Please respect copyright.PENANAMRAgX5v3XD
And Slate heads into his room, Mikey locking it behind him. He then ushers Cloud, Lyla and Gideo into their respective rooms. Paisley is already in bed, hardly leaves hers. "Night, Paisley. Sweet dreams..." Mikey trails off awkwardly, locking it.209Please respect copyright.PENANA1J26ep004x
209Please respect copyright.PENANAYgUVTrz22g
He then heads to Beth's, Beth already in bed and tucked in by Solayo. "Restraints?" He asks. 209Please respect copyright.PENANA9EcrTuh4FL
209Please respect copyright.PENANA99pZi9Tk1d
"Nah, we don't need em. She's calmer and we'll just sleep this off. Plus she ate anyway even if it wasn't dinner..."209Please respect copyright.PENANABj8UwEUXTq
209Please respect copyright.PENANAZc1h3KMh4S
"She'll have a mild hangover tomorrow..."209Please respect copyright.PENANA38S540Rndx
209Please respect copyright.PENANADH3lpjjYIk
"Yeah, that's goanna be hell for her. Bring her to me later, I'll give her an IV and the morning after."209Please respect copyright.PENANAEU8Jfd1dNy
209Please respect copyright.PENANAlOqlFUz9ll
"Okay. Y-yeah..."209Please respect copyright.PENANApLN5G2tYNB

"Let's go back upstairs now, finish our dinner." 209Please respect copyright.PENANAqHpCBmGkVJ

(Three and half years later)209Please respect copyright.PENANA6FgeAC7Rf5
209Please respect copyright.PENANAu1QheKxkT2
Our group now around 24-25 not that they know it are all getting out today, three years and a half is a long time, but they hardly recall over half their time. Working towards this part of their rehabilation was difficult when the real truth is it was never about redemption, it was just cruel punishment before it even began and after constant drugging, it's a concept they can't comprehend.209Please respect copyright.PENANA46jNe6aK1r
209Please respect copyright.PENANAlrZa5YqR2n
Bethany's lying beside Gideon, head resting on shoulder as he sits on the floor, bouncing a plastic handball against the wall, coming right back to him.209Please respect copyright.PENANAsaWi71Hujd
209Please respect copyright.PENANAIuGOT3Vye9
Slate sits beside them both numbly looking at his lap, occasionally giving the spin of a yoyo that is in his hand.209Please respect copyright.PENANAgfDZXXVLK9
209Please respect copyright.PENANAjxhiqB9hdP
"Morning all." Cloud speaks up, coming out of his room. He recieves a few half hearted replies. With the group fairly unresponsive, he checks in on Lyla and Paisley, waking both girls. They each come out of their room.209Please respect copyright.PENANAcNLv7P0Jcd
209Please respect copyright.PENANA8eYCH6fkNR
"So, uh, group. Ester, uh, asked me to debrief you today. The uh, leaders only just informed yesterday of the news.209Please respect copyright.PENANAMyn0qiTyMK
209Please respect copyright.PENANA2fCWegfSng
It seems we are actually getting out today so if you all could collect up what you have here that would be great, and it's also my understanding when we process out, there is some additional stuff we're to collect that we couldn't have due to safety."209Please respect copyright.PENANAopSa4AyYIf
209Please respect copyright.PENANAzZQgDWXabK
"Safety?" Slate whispers. "Uh, I think you drew occasionally? I'm not sure, but I guess they didn't want you stabbing yourself, them or us with them.
Like the tip." Cloud answers awkwardly.209Please respect copyright.PENANA8rivjxAPJo
209Please respect copyright.PENANAYSFZHNtk8M
Unlike the others, he knows the Tomorrow Party and is good at faking it for the long haul. The amount of time he cheeked the unesscary drugs, disposed of them and never got caught. Three years though down here was a long time when you are aware and awake for it all.209Please respect copyright.PENANARg3iuZMIQN
209Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7njQULC1g
"So, that's it for the morning announcements. Breakfast is coming I believe and medication." He finishes, the door at the end of the corridor opening right on time. 209Please respect copyright.PENANARYTJvgQFNJ
209Please respect copyright.PENANAWGZ525kakL
"Cloud." Says Solayo, followed by the others. "Morning, Solayo. I debriefed everyone like you asked." Cloud tells him.209Please respect copyright.PENANAMzULjgu3Wo
209Please respect copyright.PENANAgPvkDi1QP2
"Good, good. So eveyone, breakfast, then meds and grab your stuff please and then we are going to process you out into the population. You have stuff to collect you couldn't have down here, we trust you to hold them and behave appopritely."209Please respect copyright.PENANAtqP7H9zpGz
209Please respect copyright.PENANAgln3waETob
"Yes, Sir." Everyone responds. "Good, good." He adds on, handing out breakfast to everyone, making them stand in a line.209Please respect copyright.PENANA2a0MPedLcv
209Please respect copyright.PENANA87YiihJzG9
While they all eat, the leaders prepare their meds. "How you doing?" Solayo smiles, bending down to Paisley even though it's no longer Paisley, a topic that has not been discussed. The girl she is now knows, but rarely talks because what is she meant to say? Lyla and her know they are twins as they look the same, but each feel nothing emotionally.209Please respect copyright.PENANAxpgQrF2Gms
209Please respect copyright.PENANAsfi23agZD8
He holds out her med cup for her to take which contains the least amount of medication than everybody else. Inside is just one single tablet. She gulps it down, followed by a cup of water.209Please respect copyright.PENANA03hfn7P3PJ
209Please respect copyright.PENANA36mH3Q3ZIM
She opens her mouth afterwards showing him it's clear. "Good girl." He smiles, tapping her knee and stands.209Please respect copyright.PENANAHZ3qjVkB1d
209Please respect copyright.PENANApiEG73aGUj
Solayo procees to Gideon next. "How we feeling this morning, Gid?" 209Please respect copyright.PENANA9ih8eyA7CY
209Please respect copyright.PENANAWaibAExGwr
"Uh, fine I guess."209Please respect copyright.PENANAkxliNxayQy

"Yeah? So, what we goanna do when we get to leave?"209Please respect copyright.PENANAvKNXGFw3cW
209Please respect copyright.PENANAtmeQ7JNTZE
"I don't know. Mikey said there would be a job?"209Please respect copyright.PENANAngk6MmeIra
209Please respect copyright.PENANAmIwYkVmWKg
"There will be, I don't want you and others to be bored and sitting down here really doesn't feel all that productive, yeah?"209Please respect copyright.PENANALEhVrdOOMK
209Please respect copyright.PENANA1meFV2ZOoC
"Yes, Sir."209Please respect copyright.PENANAg6GNHojgDx
209Please respect copyright.PENANAhA0IVQO9We
"Your meds." 209Please respect copyright.PENANARtrfgfP9er
209Please respect copyright.PENANA1wTRTlRkxZ
And Gideon swallows them down. "Thank you." Solayo says, moving on. Lyla, Slate followed by Cloud and then Beth.209Please respect copyright.PENANAYoQvIRwHCs
209Please respect copyright.PENANAkmPsFdOLsD
She perks up a little when she sees Grayson. "Morning, Grayson."209Please respect copyright.PENANAIkfuvVKQa5
209Please respect copyright.PENANAPgyW6rNJqk
"Morning, Beth." Grayson responds. "So, Bethany. Hi, how are we feeling?" Solayo questions.209Please respect copyright.PENANAw28ZaTMHEB
209Please respect copyright.PENANAIXvcx66cNM
"Better now that you all are here."209Please respect copyright.PENANAZo23DqLICU
209Please respect copyright.PENANA1MjqyjpI2h
"You like our visits, good, good." Is Solayo's response. Despite the drugs, Beth's mood and fractured time eventally settled a bit for her to be able to go out with Grayson a bit. There was times they all got to leave for medical appointments and stuff, but she got to leave for other things sometime.209Please respect copyright.PENANAg9qXlcWNAc
209Please respect copyright.PENANAvhuksyj92G
Only small though, sitting with Grayson on his lunchbreak even if it was only in the leaders apartment. No matter what it was, she looked forward to those far and few between events.209Please respect copyright.PENANAOjkVKMpktF
209Please respect copyright.PENANAYGHm0bSapN
"Your meds." Solayo smiles holding her cup out to her which contains the most out of everybody else.209Please respect copyright.PENANA81U5ecMtbb
209Please respect copyright.PENANAHlnrCw2EMo
"Do I have to take them?"209Please respect copyright.PENANAsI3OqPpIKZ
209Please respect copyright.PENANAWYsYOLvHh4
"You do, we've been over this. You know how we explained to you before that your mood was quite, well, it changed rapidly through out the day?"209Please respect copyright.PENANA78doyLXXTh
209Please respect copyright.PENANACJra9Vzb2V
"Yeah."209Please respect copyright.PENANAAgrtBsSo1R
209Please respect copyright.PENANA32U8RsYk9k
"That's why, and sometimes you posed a threat to yourself, saw things and had seizures. We didn't want you to get hurt so that is why you take these meds so that doesn't happen again ever."209Please respect copyright.PENANApXqYM8GLO7
209Please respect copyright.PENANAl1ZtlXKZkG
"I don't remember what you speak of feels like though, it's-"209Please respect copyright.PENANAff12UMiTRT
209Please respect copyright.PENANAictEaPLGBQ
"If you're not ready to leave and your companions can't leave either-" He begins. "No, no. I'll take them. I'm sorry, Sir." She panics, downing them.209Please respect copyright.PENANAC2j6OnfXGp
209Please respect copyright.PENANAI5zRuwGpkv
He checks her mouth seeing it's clear. "There we go, wasn't so hard." And stands. Once this is all over with, everyone collects the few clothes and items they have down here, the leaders leading them all to the elevator.209Please respect copyright.PENANA7K3tjRXM1o
209Please respect copyright.PENANAXp2ldDc5Ry
They enter, no one handcuffed as opposed to when they first came down here. "So, as we have discussed before, it's all going to be very overwhelming, there will be alot of people.209Please respect copyright.PENANAx7KjD8o721
209Please respect copyright.PENANAUEcYpIhPA6
We'll show you your rooms, take today to familarize yourself with everything. The day begins at 6:30 for you all and ends at 7 p.m. Lights out are at 9 and no one is allowed in the hall outside that time.209Please respect copyright.PENANAY9O5rrQWCF
209Please respect copyright.PENANAcucwpwoYlF
Security will be patrolling the halls. The only reasonable excuse to leave is the bathroom or an emergency like a medical emergency or an alarm goes off signalling evacuation.209Please respect copyright.PENANAwnqXWMvQzl
209Please respect copyright.PENANAfafYnTXtuh
We'll meet with you all tomorrow and assign you your jobs."209Please respect copyright.PENANAeHvkdNtEDR

"We get to sleep in a bit?" Slate says excitedly. "Yes, you all do." Solayo responds, smiling and he gently ruffles Slate's hair.209Please respect copyright.PENANAxnB2pgzxO3
209Please respect copyright.PENANAyQtCrDVNJg
The elevator reaches the main floor and they step out, all in awe as they walk along the bridge seeing the farm outside and sunlight streaming in from above.209Please respect copyright.PENANA3v2wDTJBmi
209Please respect copyright.PENANAln1GWWJ7wT
"This is amazing." Gideon says, mouth open as they walk. They get a general tour. Cafeteria, shower and so on, are given their old tags with their first name on them and their keycards showing their access level. They are lead down a corridor that's a little more private and away from noise.209Please respect copyright.PENANALqnoGeJzyN
209Please respect copyright.PENANAIYSvXaHvij
Two doors. "On the left here will be the boys dormitory. Gideon, Cloud and Zekey. Ya'll have a dog you forgot about. His in our apartment so Mikey will be going back to collect him. You take good care of Zekey.209Please respect copyright.PENANAGMVR3KSPh7
209Please respect copyright.PENANA0pCbNm065c
Girls, you're all in the right room." And he opens both for our pair to split up and enter, looking around. "You want to go collect the stupid dog? I'm tired of it peeing around the place."209Please respect copyright.PENANA3jdLJnooPn
209Please respect copyright.PENANA54Hxog5ZIL
"Solayo, the dog is pretty old by this point. It-" 209Please respect copyright.PENANAGdZ2CzmES8

"Mikey, I don't want to hear it. Collect the damn dog." 209Please respect copyright.PENANAWhlHL3QnId
209Please respect copyright.PENANAlDAozSU8gQ
Ester goes with him to accompany him, Solayo leaves with Cloud to show him his room, a seperate private room all to his self and Grayson remains behind, gesturing for Bethany to come out and see him. 209Please respect copyright.PENANA8XRsZD5BnX
209Please respect copyright.PENANACPZ1IjtdTI
She slips out while Lyla and Paisley are distracted putting their stuff away. "Hey you." She smiles, pushing Grayson against the wall, hands feeling his toned chest and starts kissing the side of his face, trailing down his neck. "Wow, okay. Thank you, that's nice." He blushes, pushing her away.209Please respect copyright.PENANAb0Wa3nEdjp

You can ask her if she wants you to stick your dick inside her, but while she's taking so many meds? No. Just because she's saying yes, doesn't make it okay. 209Please respect copyright.PENANAvEjsPan7Pe
