Syraei narrowed her eyes at the mutants, sizing each one up from where she lay immobile on the ground. "That Thing is dangerous. That's all I know and that's all I'm telling you. Just leave that Thing in our hands and just leave."

Meniatz picks Syraei up and carries to Dio her as sie picks up Kesai's scent. "Kesai is /not/ dangerous, and I intend to prove it to you. Until we bring Kesai back, You're coming with us." Sie presents Syraei to Dio. "Dio, could you hold Syraei while I give her a shot to keep her strength up." Meni holds up a syringe with a strange fluid in it. "Now, if Kesai really is the monster you make her out to be, then her behaviour has nothing to do with the experiments your people have subjected her to. If that is the case, then if I inject you with the same compound they used on her, you should be perfectly fine, right?"

"Leaving her in your hands didn't do anybody very much good now did it," Dio scoffs. "I don't think we're going to get too much more information out of this woman. She was ready to blow us up a minute ago." The lion points to the defused explosives and continues. "The longer we wait here talking to a brick wall, the further Kesai gets aw-" Dio pauses when Meni makes hir request and grows a little grin once he catches onto hir idea. "Very well, ma'am," the lion says as he wraps both of his arms beneath Syraei's shoulders and holding her tight.

Antiman hisses and approaches the injured RSX agent in Meni's hands, "That thing as you call her is a person! More than that she's a friend!" mentaly sie adds, *And I hope more than a friend one day*, "Not that I really expect you to understand either concept." Sie shakes hir head, "I bet you would enjoy the idea of a mind control weapon that could be used on an entire populace. Just think of it. A nanite agent is released in a population center. The population one the agent is sufficently dispersed is then commanded to kill themselves. 100 percent nutuarlization and all you need to do is clean up the mess. It's even better than the nutron bomb whe-." Sie looks up at hir sister-mate as sie makes hir request, "Indeed perhaps a first hand experiance will help her understand."

Tau couldn't really say anything the others hadn't already said. Sie could at the very least say "Now, I haven't known her as long as the others, but she seemed fine to me." Sie grins at what Meni says and prepares to do, and makes moves to be ready to hold her down as well if needed. "Now don't you worry Ma'am, it didn't kill us, it won't kill you. Hell, it'll save you from bein' killed."

When Syraei was sure Antiman was looking at her, she cast the gryphon a derisive glare, particularly at the breast milk she'd offered earlier. If the gryphon were any closer, she might have spit upon those same breeasts. But now, her she snaps her eyes towards the syringe in Meniatz's hands. "Oh no... Oh fuck no!" The human squirmed and started punching, first Meniatz then Dio then anyone else that comes within range of her fists. "Are you freaks insane! You can't do that! You can't... Wait... what mind control nanite?" She stared dubiously at first Meniatz then Antiman, the apparent ring leaders.

Meniatz lowers the syringe. "I'm a nanite researcher whom Zephyr Inc. keeps on retainer. I've analyzed the compound that RSX has been injecting Kesai with, and it is designed to manipulate and take control of anyone who has been infected with nanites. The sample I examined was flawed, and unstable. It's entirely possible that it increases aggression as a side-effect. That's why Kesai hurt your friends, which means that she isn't to blame for the death of your comrades--your bosses are." Sie sets the syringe down. "But you didn't know that, did you? You just blindly followed their orders, a naive pawn in their plot to commit genocide. You may not like us but we have as much of a right to exist as you do. It is my sincere hope that you will help us free our friend and save hundreds--perhaps even thousands--of innocent people who have done you no wrong." Sie extends a hand to Syraei, hoping that she would understand the gravity of the situation. "Perhaps we should start over. I'm Meniatz, and this is my family. Won't you please help us save our fox friend and prevent an atrocity?"

Dio leans back a little to stay clear of the flailing fists flying coming towards his body. "Whoa there," Dio says as he tightens his grip on the human. "Let's calm down a little, shall we?" Dio listens intently as Meni explains the situation. "I certainly hope there's a way to reverse or dull the effects. It'd be awfully hard to take a vixen home if she's still in that berserk state." Seeing that diplomacy has once again reared its head, the lion loosens his grip and places both paws on top of the human's shoulders lightly. "Indeed. We're here to save Kesai, you, and everyone else, but only if you let us."

Antiman ears flatten, "The one that was in Kesai veins. The one that Zypher developed and that RSX just stole. The one that I don't think either company should have but think RSX really shouldn't have. That mind control nanite." Hir voice took on an intensity as hir sister-mate mentioned genocide, "Remember, 'I was only following orders.' isn't a good enough reason to carry out atrocities." Sie cocks hir head at Dio, "All we would need to nutralize the nanites is a microwave burst of some kind."

Tau aims hir gun and shouts for her to calm down, but then Meni pulls the diplomacy card and sie lowers it. "Sorry about that. Y'know, even if they aren't trying to kill people with mind control, it's still damned mind control. You can't *possibly* be okay with that." When dio mentions the difficulty in retrieving a crazy fox, sie throws out "Maybe we can just keep her in a cage til we figure something out. They probably have mobile cages." And when Antiman mentions that "I was only following orders" wasn't good enough, sie adds in "Wasn't good enough for the Nazis when they were put on trial."

Syraei struggles against Dio's crushing hold, trying to headbutt him or anything that might loosen his grip, but once diplomacy reared it's head again, Syraei turned to stare at Meniatz hand a moment... then she began to laugh. She slapped the hand away as she rolled in laughter. "You freaks are totally clueless, aren't you?" Syr turned her bright blue eyes and stared Antiman down. "I don't give a damn about mind control or whatever the hell crazy shit you're making up here." The human laughed once more, rather maniacally. "You know what? Fine. Go. 11-5 be on the top floor. Along with more guards than a nuke might warrant."

Meniatz jabs the syringe into Syraei's arm and injects hir with a particularly potent strain of nanites. "We aren't making it up, but we don't have any more time to argue." Sie then injects her...hir other arm with a modified batch of the mind-control nanites. "I've greatly enhanced this batch of mind-control nanites by using my knowledge of Zephyr's technology and then adding my own special touches. So, you're going to be good girls and help us free Kesai. Do you understand, my obedient little doggy?" Sie says, patting hir on the head as it shifts and changes into a muzzle and two more burst forth from hir shoulders. It would appear that Meni has decided to turn Syraei into a cerberus. "You really are cute like this. I think I might keep you this way once we're finished. It'll be nice for Tau to have another dog to play with~" Sie says as sie caresses Syraei's muzzle. "Now, please lead us to Kesai." Sie says, handing each of hir heads a third of a dog-treat.

"On the roof, eh? That's all I needed to hear." Dio lets go of the ex-human and steps back once Meni injects her. "Oh my, I didn't think you'd actually poke her with the mind control nanites." Dio did infact look rather surprised, but in the end, he just shrugs. "I can't say I really care all that much to be honest. However, we should probably let her go once this is done. You did say we all have the right to live and all that, right? Regardless..." The lion points upwards towards the roof, "We got a vixen to catch. Maybe we can use those explosives to clear out the guards our friend here just mentioned. Perhaps someone could fly up and take a peek at the roof as well? I'm not too keen on that as I'm not hopeful that people with guns will ignore a flying mutant coming right at them."

Antiman sighs, *It's too bad they can't all be like Raifuru.* In a voice like that of a judge passing sentence sie says, "I had hoped we could have avoided doing this, however you words and deeds leave us no choice. It is in our judgement that you're too dangerous too leave free cripled or not. You will be transformed and made a pet for the protection of others and yourself. It is hoped that one day you will be worthy of decent peoples trust and be freed. If not then a pet you'll forever more be." Sie watches impasivly as the agent is transformed, "So be it judged." Sie then scratces behind the ears of Syraei's central head, "Syraei do you know where the other two helecopters landed?" Sie looks up as Dio makes his sudgestion, "I don't care for it either. If Zypher has AA guns then RSX definiatly does and probably more of 'em."

Tau seems a little disturbed. "Um...was it *really* necessary to hit her with the mind control stuff *after* she gave us the info?" Then Antiman goes on hir whole judgement spiel. "Excuse me, hold on a second. She's too dangerous how? She couldn't stand on her own. She was misinformed and racist, so what? I support turning her to heal her, but treat it like a punishment and I'm starting to have a problem here. And what's this about making her a pet?" Sie looks irritated. It was like they had become someone else.

Syraei screams bloody murder as she's injected. It wouldn't be a surprise if the entire city had heard the scream. Syraei continued to scream, even as she changed, and kept screaming until the mind control nanites claimed her free will and turned her into an emotionless puppet. She didn't even react when petted and stroked. Her voice, however, was a very familiar monotone. "Subject 11-5-19-1-9 is held in a secure laboratory in the RSX sub-basement. The building is protected externally by four CIWS systems and surface to air missile emplacements. DAP Blackhawk helicopters may remain on station until Subject 11-5 is secured for shipment."

Meniatz gives Tau a kiss on the muzzle and murrs softly. "Shhhh. Calm down, Tau. I based this strain of nanites off of Lucy's. Once a certain, pre-determined condition has been met, Syraei will be free to go." Meni hands Tau a treat and wags hir tail happily as sie approaches Syraei to put a leash around hir and pet her affectionately. "That's a good girl! Now, please lead us to Kesai and ensure that we enter safely and undetected." Syraei did not quite understand why, but sie felt amazing when Meni complimented hir. It would seem that one of the 'modifications' that sie based off of Lucy involved a stimulation of the brain's pleasure centers upon satisfying hir new mistress. Even the word mistress seemed to fill hir with delight.

"You know, the way she said that information, it reminded me of Kesai in a way. She always had the monotone pattern of speech." Dio follow after Meni once all the changes are complete. "Alright, so we're heading down a sub-basement are we? Not quite a roof as you said before now is it? I suppose we can trust this information now, but the process we got it still sorta irks me a bit. But as I said before, I don't really care." Dio points towards the Rsx building. "Shall we go?"

Antiman was taken aback as sie heard Syraei's voice come out in the same monotone as Kesai's voice. Hir eyes then narrow as sie listens to what she says and looks at Tau, "It seems she lied to us. I'm not sure if using this for interrogation is more moraly wrong than water boarding is, but I think it breaks the spirit of the Genevia Convention." Sie looks back at Syraei, "This is one more reason this form of nanite shouldn't be developed." Sie then says to hirself, "I wonder how long Kesai has been locked in her own mind, but there were those times when she slipped their controle and was herself." Sie looks at Meni, "We should be careful about that." Sie listens impressed as Meni explained where the nanite strain came from, "Impressive, love." Sie then explains to Tau, "I don't care for the death penality. It doesn't give a person to attone for their crimes. Making someone a pet gives them that chance. If they can change then they will eventualy be free. If not then they won't be free. As for her being too dangerous it's true that right now she couldn't have hurt anyone. If we left her alive someone would have searched for her remains and found her alive. Even if they don't use nanites prostetics have gotten to the point that she could have returned to duty and be in position to kill others based on her bigotry." Sie then adresses Syraei again, "Where are the Blackhawks kept on station?"

Tau *still* didn't feel right about this, but was placated somewhat by the treat. Somewhat. Sie ate the treat. Sie still felt skeptical despite the logic Antiman was giving, but couldn't come up with a reasonable arguement against it, so sie let it lie. "Alright. Good enough, I guess. So how's she gonna get us in safe when she's mutated herself? They aren't just gonna let us walk in, and we stick out like sore thumbs. Now see, if I'd been human again like before, I could've got us in."

Syraei eagerly turns and pulls on the leash, leading them away from the steel armored RSX building that looms over them and had been looming over them for a long while now. In fact, if you thought about it, all of them were standing in a planned and marked kill zone where snipers, machine gunners, and grenadiers probably already had a bead on them from the roof. A flight towards the roof would have been a case of instantaneous suicide and the gunners were probably awaiting a signal from Syraei.

Once out of sight of the RSX fortress, she motioned up. Straight up at the clouds above. "They are on station in a 2 kilometer race track at approximately 6000 meters. They were awaiting my all clear signal." She droned on in that Kesai reminiscent way as she lead them all back into the clothing store. "Having watched my mutation, they may begin to fire soon. The safest route may be the use of a maintenance shaft in this building. It leads to the sewer system and directly to the labs, if enough explosives are used."

Meniatz nuzzles Tau and whines softly. "I'm sure you could, love, but I...don't really want to see more humans right now." The talakai then gives Syraei a hug. "Thank you for warning us. You're in for a ton of belly rubs once we get home." Meni looks over to Tau. "I'll be sure to give you your fair share, too, love. Don't worry~" Sie follows Syraei to the maintenance shaft and pries it open. "Anti, could you use the explosives to get us into the labs? We may also want to set some up somewhere in the sewers to block the exit when we leave." Sie then gives Syraei a scratch behind the ears. "Think that'll work, miss Hunter?"

Dio follows closely behind Meni and chuckles. "Wouldn't you want to see me human again? I thought I looked alright with the gray hair and all." Done with his dumb joke, Dio puts his muscles to good use by helping to pry open the maintenance shaft. "Indeed. Good thing we didn't try the flying solution. That would've been a disaster. I suppose the job is mostly clear cut, but there's something that's bothering me." Dio pauses for a moment and then continues prying on the hatch. "We can take Kesai home, erase the research, and all that business, but that doesn't mean RSX or Zeph are going to forget about us. Wouldn't they eventually find where we live and try to take her back? I'll defend her, but there's only so much we can do..."

Antiman hisses in frustration and looks around somewhat futily for aviable cover. *Of course the front door would have a kill zone around it. Stupid. I'm surprised they didn't start firing when we came out with her.* Sie looks to Meni as they go back to the clothing store, "That part about the helecopters is really not good. As long as they have them we can't fly back or they'll just simply follow us back and turn us into hamburger. We need to find a way to splash 'em or figure out how to wait 'em out, and I didn't bring enough rations to wait 'em out." Sie didn't add if there was only two people there would be enough rations. Sie nods at Meni's question, "No problem. There's enough here but I'll need a shot pattern drilled to do it without colapsing the tunnel before we get in. As for collapsing the tunnel on the way out piece of cake. All the forces are working for us there." Sie agrees with Meni about not wanting to see more humans. This whole thing has given hir a lower opinion of humanity than sie normaly does. Sie goes back to the explosives that were disconnected from the detonator and starts removing blasting caps from the C-4 charges, "I should have enough of my own caps for all of this. You don't want to be handeling wired blasting caps if you can avoid it." As sie starts bringing the explosives to the tunnel entrance sie responds to Dio's comment, "Is there a way to make a search and destroy nanite to remove a nanite? If she doesn't have the nanites anymore they won't come for her. We'll then just need to take Kesai to the lobby after the nanites are removed. After they see her act not controled they won't have any intrest in her. They may still come after us though, but that just makes things interestin." Sie cocks hir head, "Perhaps we could threaton to tell about this to the Promeatheans if they try anything."

Tau nods to Meni's sentiment of not wanting to see humans. Sie totally understood. Sie smiled at the promise of belly rubs, it was nice that Meni thought of hir too. Now wasn't the time for that though. "Hmm...yeah, that *is* a problem, isn't it?" sie says after dio speaks. Then anti poses a possible solution, to which sie says "Well that might work, but now we've got the problem of the copters.
