Katelyn gives a stiff nod when the creature speaks and informs her that he didn't know what would happen, and then goes on to more or less tell her that she was the first known person or whatever else to have even survived such an attack. She guesses that she should maybe feel lucky for that, but she doesn't. Kate felt broken.. incomplete, and was no closer to knowing if she would ever be whole again.
"Oh.." She murmurs softly and gives a slight nod to show that she understood what it was telling her, and tries to put on a brave and unaffected expression as she speaks again.
"So uh... Is there anything that you do enjoy eating specifically... Any kind of particular animal or vegetable maybe?" She inquires with a bit more sadness in her tone, not liking her chances as far as getting her hand back now, given that both the Remingtons had seemed to have studied the creature and the effects of it's acid more than either of the two of them standing in this room. "I could let them know what to bring you so you won't feel the urge to attack anything that gets too close.."

Kin could most definitely pick up the feeling of sadness in her tone. He remained silent rather than answering, clamming up. He wasn't sure he wanted to eat at all anymore. He clenched his legs with his palms. This body was uncomfortable. He was still hungry, not as much, but it was still there. He was scared, he wanted something familiar, he thought he had made a friend but he had gone and ruined it. Kin seemed to be visibly shivering now, he did not quite know which reason that crossed his mind caused the shaking, but he wanted it to stop. Where was the boy? Was the he OK? How was he going to get out of here? Was he just going to die here? Continue to mope around and claim to wait for the perfect opportunity?
He clenched his teeth, before finally forcing himself to speak, "I want...OUT" he launched himself forward, still in Katelyn's body, "I want CODY!" he shouted before his shape suddenly changed to that of a large mountain ram with white clean wool. He charged towards the glass wall and rammed into it, causing quite a loud ruckus as large silvery cracks webbed across the glass. The wall reacted to the touch and sent a painful electric shock caused the ram to practically scream in pain before collapsing into a pile of goop.

Katelyn stood there in shared silence with the entrapped creature for a couple long moments, shifting slightly where she stood. Deep down she did still kind of want to help the humanoid, but feared now to try and do so would put her life in great danger. She doesn't turn her back on the creature however, opting to wait to see if it gave her an answer.
Without warning the entire mood changes, and Kate's borderline depression rapidly shifts to abject terror as the creature suddenly screams that it wanted out, and also that it wanted someone named Cody. As to who Cody was, she is utterly clueless and the creature gives her no time to ponder an answer or go and try and find one for him before suddenly she is no longer looking at a horned albino version of her but instead a powerful looking ram charging at the glass.
She throws herself backwards, and trips over her own still shaky legs to fall upon the ground as Kate attempts to put some distance between herself and the outer wall of the cell. Looking back and up as she scurries back further, her eyes widen and her fear grows at seeing the cracks the impact made. Without giving the creature a chance to reform and try again, she pushes up off the ground with her remaining hand and runs like the devil is chasing her.
"Help!!!" She cries out as she books it back the way she and Sinclair had come, stopping only at the main security door into the prisoner containment area, and with all the strength availible to her at the moment, she slams the thick metal door shut and then collapses against it, her back making a 'clang' noise as she impacts and then begins crying anew as she slides down to sit on the floor, her breath ragged and frightened.
A couple moments later she hears footsteps running toward her and looks up with wide and terrified eyes, her stump clutched to her chest harder than she'd had before as she shakes and hyperventilates a bit.
"It-it-it's angry... and I don't think the glass is going to hold it forever." She finds herself whimpering out when whoever it was that was coming finds her just outside the closed vault-like door.

Victor had already jumped out of his seat and was making his way towards the room as soon as he saw the creature shift into a ram and charge towards the glass wall. He did not think it would show resistance, considering it was not responsive to anything so far. He could hear the sound of the metal door closing as he grabbed the same large taser gun Sinclair had used on it earlier.
He approached Katelyn and she began talking to him, obviously terrified, "Don't just sit there and bawl get your behind moving!" he told the girl, lifting her up by her good arm and giving her a good shove behind him to get her to get her butt moving on out of here. There was a crashing sound of glass on the other side of the metal door, the subject had escaped the cell. He swore under his breath and practically kicked the door open with the over-sized stun-gun.
He witnessed a white panther with horns glaring at him with what seemed to be absolute hatred, "C'mon big boy," Victor huffed, hearing the door close behind him, likely because of the force of him kicking it open or Katelyn closing it. Either way, he figured Katelyn was going to run off while he was left with this THING.
"Who's the coward now Claira?" Victor huffed under his breath to no one in particular as he continued his stare down with the horned white panther. The two pronged taser zapped to life, ready to electrocute the panther back into its gooey state and scoop it up in a jar that hung from the back of the over-sized taser. He was the only thing between this panther and the door, and he wasn't about to let it through so easily...

It was Victor, Katelyn soon came to find out as he appeared, the look on his face as he took sight of her making it utterly clear that despite her tentative new 'friendship' with Sinclair changed nothing as far as how he felt about her. She lets out a grunt but doesn't resist as he grabs her, hauling her to her feet before shoving her back behind him with little regard.
She manages to keep on her feet this time though, and as she turns back to face him with wide eyes and just as she does, Kate hears the sound of shattering glass beyond the door. Before she could say or do anything to stop the brutish man, he has the door open and disappears inside, kicking it almost-shut with what she guesses is a backward kick.
Standing there in stunned silence for a couple seconds, she finds herself not digging the guy's chances and as much as she really didn't like him at the moment, she wasn't gonna stand around and let him die, especially as it was her fault that the creature had discovered the cells were not inescapeable. Her eyes dart around the outer area with a fervor, and then her gaze falls upon a sink, and beneath it a bucket. Having seen the taser-stick he was carrying, an idea pops in her head and quickly she prays it wouldn't turn out to be a bad one.
She rushes over to the sink and grabs the bucket with her hand, quickly putting it under the faucet and then turns the water on full. She lets it get most of the way full, which it finishes quick and then grabs hold of the handle before running back towards the door. With her foot she pushes it open, unsure of what she would find waiting, but runs back inside anyways.
Finding the man and the creature facing off a bit off, she pushes herself to keep running forward with the bucket of water in hand.
"DUCK!" She yells and gives Victor a second or two before hauling back and throwing the bucket overhead, aiming to get the water to hit the creature. The bucket hits the floor a moment later and she hears water splash all over, making a big puddle across the floor and hopefully around the creature. "Aim for the water!"

Kin was alerted by the girl's shouting, and put two and two together with what she was thinking swiftly. He deconstructed into a goo form once more, before the goo suddenly flung itself into the air while the water below it suddenly became electrified the form shifted in mid air as large owl swooped just inches above the water. The owl flapped his wings, elevating himself into the air before perching himself on a steel beam high above. He glared down at the two from his perch, waiting. He was attempting to simply intimidate any who opposed his escape by become a rather dangerous beast, but Katelyn seemed to have decided to help him recapture him.
--
Victor had ducked effectively, used to the idea of teamwork and identifying a helping hand. He dipped the rod into the water, but the creature had already taken flight and took shelter in the steel beams above. He considered himself lucky that this part of the lab was underground, and that there was no windows. But the steel beams where there to help support the house above and keep it from caving in, they were now serving as a reprieve for the creature.
Victor would have asked the girl if she was any good at throwing, but he remembered that the hand that was consumed was her favored hand. He swore under his breath as he glared up at the creature. He didn't want to leave Katelyn here alone to grab another gun, and he figured Sinclair still had no clue any of this was going on. He made a mental note to install voice commands to the lab itself if he got out of this alive.
"Ok," he spoke up at last, "It doesn't seem to want to kill us, if it did, it probably would have done it by now..." he came to the conclusion since the owl could easily fly down and turn to goo mid-way, and plat across his face, as he was still staring at it in case he was completely wrong and he was about to experience death from above.

Katelyn's aim had been spot on, but her yell had been a mistake, she soon realized as she watched the creature fly upwards and away from the danger. For a moment or two, it keeps level with them and Kate meets it's gaze with a scared look, devoid of hate or anger, just fear. She knew that it would likely be out for her blood now, and had no real idea what to do to protect herself against it.
As the creature flies further up, Kate's gaze follows until it disappears into the shadows of the steel 'rafters'. She chances a brief glance to the man as he speaks before returning her gaze upward just as quick, her eyes scouring the darkness for the creature. Whether it was good or evil, the man was correct about it being dangerous, her missing hand was testament enough for her. She didn't want to kill it though as she could understand it's reasoning for it's actions.
Keeping her eyes turned upward, the teenager hesitantly made her way to stand behind the man before speaking in a whisper that hopefully only he would hear.
"Do you have a sprinkler system in case of fire?" She asks, a probably bad plan forming in her head. The bad being that it would likely end with her being electrocuted again...

Victor looked to her, "I don't see a way in which electrical conduction would be of use to us right now," he spoke up, a bit confused.
"Are humans always this violent? It's a miracle your species hasn't torn itself apart by now or been blasted to pieces after pissing some other species off..." came a voice from above.
Victor looked up towards the creature to find that it now took the form of a small child, "Holy shit it's actually talking..." he spoke in an amazed whisper. They had to get this thing back in the lab, not just for the sake of people's lives, but for the sake of science!
"I'll go turn them on," he said, deciding to trust her. He quickly disappeared behind the door for a brief moment before the room suddenly started beeping and sprinklers rained down into the room. Victor returned, making sure to keep the door as closed as he could, "Now what Ms. I have the plan?"
"Are you just going to ignore the fact that i'm offering a peace talk by giving up the avian form for the form of a child?" Kin spoke from above, kicking his little legs as if he were sitting on a bench and not on a support high into the air.

As Victor subtly offered the taser to her, Katelyn made sure to keep it out of sight behind their backs, and slips the handle down into the back of her pants to hold it in place. She then shifts her gaze slightly, still staring upward as the creature speaks and downgrades humanity as a savage species. She mostly ignores Vic as he speaks out in wonder at the creature finally speaking in the presence of someone besides herself.
She gives a nod as he speaks again low and then begins to back out of the room, her gaze not moving from where she could see the creature perched, now in the shape of a young boy. Kate doesn't flinch as the sprinklers come on a moment later and she takes a step forward as the creature speaks, listening to its words with her mind reluctantly already made up. This had to be done.
"Okay sure, we can talk but please know that if you try to attack, that guy is going to make use of a security measure that will fry the hell out of both of us." She says, motioning her good hand at the still active sprinklers. "They told me this place was set up to act as a death trap on the chance that something escaped that they knew was too much to handle." She adds with a steady and composed tone, hopefully sounding sincere and concerned enough that he wouldn't realize her ruse. "The water coming down is the first part and I don't know how much time we have before they throw the second switch. We can talk if you come down.."
As she speaks she moves closer to where he's perched, and also subtly closer to one of the electrified cell doors at the same time, the taser still hidden behind her back. A moment later she breaths out heavily as the creature seems to comply, coming back down to the floor as the owl and then shifting back to the boy.
"I'm sorry for trying to help hurt you, truly I am, but with everything that's happened, I've come to have a deep fear of what you can do to me if you get desperate or hungry enough. I know you likely are indeed sorry." She speaks softly but loud enough for him to hear, mentally preparing herself for the insane plan that she'd thought up on a whim. "And I'm sorry for what I have to do, please trust me when I say that this is gonna probably hurt me a lot more than it does you." Kate finishes in a rush of words, to which she's not entirely sure is slow enough to actually be understood as more than a jumble before she grabs hold of the tazer and dives to the side toward the open and activated cell. While airborne, she shoves the prongs into the layer of water now coating the entire floor, and lets out a piercing scream as she presses the stump of her wrist to the electrified door.
Thousands of volts shoot through her, and Katelyn's mouth opens wide in a silent scream as her entire body becomes a conduit to transfer the electricty. She could feel her hair singe and catch fire as she spasms wildly from her position. Jagged black burns begin to form on her skin as she continues to convulse, and she just manages to remain coherent enough to see the creature also fall victim to her self-sacrificing action of self-electrocution.
"Turn... OFF!" She manages to scream out somehow and then everything goes dark as the voltage shorts out her heart and sends her into blissful slumber. Kate just prayed she'd wake up again...

Victor flung the door open as he heard the strange noises going on behind the door along with the scream for something to turn off. When he looked inside, he witnessed a pile of white goop and an unconscious Katelyn.
"Not good.." he muttered as he charged inside. He quickly scooped up the jar and scooped the pile of goo into the jar before it could reanimate itself. He swiftly placed the jar on a secure spot on a counter, so that it would be near impossible for the goo to roll the jar to freedom, and rushed over to Katelyn.
Sinclair had begun walking down the hall, wondering just what was taking her so long. She had grown a bit worried that the girl maybe somehow got devoured by the creature, and hurried herself along. However when she arrived she found to her horror that Katelyn was passed out on the ground, Victor was there, the third containment unit was now destroyed, and the entire place was soaking wet!
She rushed to Katelyn's aid, fussing over her and trying to get her to wake up while her husband attempted to order her to help him pick her up. She finally gave up on it, and helped rush the girl right on back to the medical room...
They went over her vitals and checked her stub-hand once more. They did everything they could, though they did not really need to do much of anything since Katelyn's body was already attempting to heal itself. They had the servants take her to one of the empty dorms, and gave them the task of making sure she was taken care of.
Kin was placed in a much higher security container, one with much less room, was still in a jar, and one that gave him rather painful electrical shocks every now and then to ensure that he does not transform and get out again. He was trapped in the goo-state in a pathetic little jar, all because he had been just a bit too trusting...
--
Three days later, and Fayte was worried sick. Well, not TOO worried. She had been having precognitive visions about Katelyn, one showing her hand being attacked and devoured by a strange goo-thing, one of her being carried off after being horribly electrocuted, and some more that looked like she was being taken cared of. She had managed to put together bits and pieces of various visions she was getting about Katelyn, and had found the Remington Household where she was being kept.
Leon was going out of his mind, worried that Katelyn had been jumped by that Leecher guy. Fayte did not tell him about her visions, no way was she going to let him in on that part. That, and she wanted to punish him for not listening to her.
From the visions, these people seemed fairly nice. They were taking care of Katelyn at the least. She made her way up to the door and gave the doorbell a ring. She waited a moment, before a buzzer just below the doorbell crackled to life, "Name?" it asked.
"Uh, Fayte Syndr? I'm looking for a friend of mine, her name is Katelyn?" she responded. There was a pause, and another voice came to the intercom.
"Hello this is Sinclair Remington, what business do you have here again?" the voice asked.
"I'm here to see my friend...Katelyn? She went missing, and someone said that they saw some residents from here carrying her off, said she looked hurt or something. I was wondering if you might know her or know where she is?" Fayte asked, still uneasy about all this. She supposed if things went to shit she could just fling a few lamps around and grab Katelyn and run...
"Come on in, i'll meet you in the main hall in a moment to talk to you about your friend," Sinclair responded.
The door opened, though there was nobody there to open it. Strange. Fayte's instincts argued against going in, but she took a breath and stepped inside. If things went wrong she could tear the door off its hinges and get the hell out of there. Easy!

The first thing Kate became aware of upon waking up several days after purposefully electrocuting herself was the the dry burning in her throat. She lets out a low moan and her eyes flutter open for a bare second before she snaps them shut again as a light that's probably brighter than it should be given her overly sensitive eyesight following three days of pure darkness. She could hear movement from behind her closed eyes and before the other occupant of the room speaks, Kate knew she wasn't alone.
"S-S-Sinclair?" She chokes out, her tone confused and not fully remembering exactly what she'd done yet, her memory a bit hazy which was to be expected.
"Oh good good, you're awake." Someone says and then Kate hears the person move to the door, then it openind and the woman speaking again. "Go tell Mr. and Mrs. Remington that Miss Katelyn has awoken, and hurry on with it."
The voice that speaks is a British sounding female, but Katelyn doesn't recognize it and with determination, she forces her eyes open and brings her hands... or rather just hand and stump up to shield her eyes against the overhead light and then lets out another groan as she realizes that her right hand was likely gone for good if it hadn't even started to regrow while she'd been trapped in the dark and the series of nightmares that had plagued her the past days. The creature had become a recurring feature, and she could remember with fading recollection being devoured in numerous scenes, more than a dozen times.
"W-water.." She finds herself croaking out, wanting relief for her throat.

While the British female had left, another had been outside as a bit of a guard who brought in some refreshments for the girl.
Sinclair was thrilled to have a friend of Katelyn's appear, maybe she'd know what to do with the girl who still had not woken up, at least from what she had heard. The Remignton greeted Fayte in the main room, Victor was off studying the creature and perhaps trying to learn a bit more about it even though it was proving to be rather uncooperative. Sinclair was clinging to the hope that maybe he could find out a bit more about the digestive acid and they could extract it from Katelyn's system and allow her hand to grow back.
Fayte seemed to be on edge, leaving Sinclair a bit curious as to why, however informed Fayte that a bit of an accident occurred and Katelyn had been unconscious for quite a while. That was when the lady informed Sinclair that Katelyn was awake, and was requesting Sinclair.
She could notice an immediate look of relief on Fayte's face, strange, but she figured it was at the news that her friend was fine. Sinclair lead the girl to Katelyn's room, however had her wait outside. She still did not know whether this friend was an actual friend, and Sinclair was no fool. She would just ask Katelyn if she really was a friend before she allowed her in there.
Sinclair opened the door and entered the room just as the refreshments were leaving with the empty glasses to fetch more.
"Morning Sunshine," Sinclair spoke up, "You feeling alright? You were out for three whole days!"

Almost as soon as Kate's raspy voice had made the request for water, another individual entered and thankfully had the foresight to dim the rooms light a bit at seeing her shielded eyes. Now that the illumination of the bedroom was less blinding, the teenage lowers both of her arms and braces them on the mattress before struggling to sit up. Once she had achieved a position about halfway between laying and sitting up straight, she pushes herself toward the rear of the bed so that her back was resting upon the pillows as well as her head.
By that point the newcomer had made his way over and sets a tray with a couple glasses onto the table at her bedside and without having to ask again, Kate finds him pressing one of the glasses up to her lips, and her eyes flicker up to meet his with a look of immense gratitude as she takes a couple greedy sips of the cool liquid it contained. It was quite good fortune for her really, as she had expended what little strength she had remaining in her efforts to sit up even halfway. Kate didn't know if she could even handle holding a glass as her entire body felt numb, heavy and every so often she felt herself twitch beneath the sheets and blankets that covered her, likely residual aftereffects of being shocked to near death in her attempts to help once more contain the creature that had stolen her hand away.
She continues to allow the man to help her drink, and as he finally pulls away the second empty glass a few minutes later, Kate gives him another look and speaks again, this time with a reduced stutter and slightly less of a rasp to her voice.
"Thank-k you." She murmurs out and then sinks back into the pillows, her full and incomplete arms laying atop the blanket and at her sides. The man gives her a nod back and then grabs up the tray before making to leave.
"I'll be back with some more in a few minutes, and see about getting you a light meal. Can't have you eating too much too soon after waking from a coma, or you'll end up sick." The kindly man tells her, and then he is gone.
Almost immediately, Katelyn's solitude is broken again by the appearance of a cheery and relieved sounding Sinclair, who greets her without pause, calling her sunshine and asking after her health.
"I gotta say I've definitely felt better." Kate croaks out, her throat still sore and dryish, despite the burning being mostly gone now. Her eyes widen slightly at the knowledge that she'd slept three full days, but as she begins to remember the events that had rendered her comatose, she's hardly surprised. She sends up a silent thanks to whatever higher powers might actually exist for gifting her with her powers, as Kate knew full well that no normal person could have survived even half of the electricity she had willingly taken into herself. "Did... Did it work then?" She asks as a follow up, hoping that her sacrifice meant something and the ravenously hungry creature had been securely contained once more. She coughs slightly following speaking and feels a bit of drool roll out the side of her mouth, and with her remaining hand, she shakily reaches up and wipes it from her chin.
"Your husband is okay?" She asks softly, not overly surprised that the man hadn't come as well, given everything he'd said to her before.

Sinclair nodded, "Yes, yes it worked. We've had it on lock down since to make sure it doesn't get out again. Victor's fine as well, save for the sudden obsession with the creature. He's been locked up in the lab ever since trying to learn what he can. It's hard to do that when we can't study it more up close without dying though,' Sinclair spoke to her.
The Remington spoke the truth, as Victor had been trying to learn a bit more and how this thing did what it did, but it was difficult as he could not simply just look at a single small cell on the creature or get any x-rays of it. He refused to take it out of the electrified jar as well, no way was he going to give that thing a shot of freedom!
"So, someone is requesting to see you actually," Sinclair spoke up, "Says her name is Fayte Syndr, know a gal of that name? Blonde? Looks to be around your age?" she asked. Depending on Katelyn's reaction, Sinclair might need to punch this other girl's lights out. She had no idea who the other girl was, and for all she knew it was some enemy that was tracking down Katelyn

Kate found herself letting out a soft and tired sigh of relief as Sinclair assures her that the pain she'd endured had meant something, and feels the bit of tension that had been building up since her memory of it returned, dissapate to nothing and she let herself relax fully. She gives Sinclair a slightly strained smile as she listened to her continue to speak, mentioning Vic and his now 'obsession' with the creature.
"I don't think I wanna be anywhere near that thing again... After what I did, if it gets free again I gotta figure I'll be the first one it comes for..." She says in a bit of a whisper, unsure if any of the staff were listening and not knowing how much they were meant to know.
Kate goes silent after that and then her eyes go wide with surprise a moment later as Sinclair tells her that Fayte had come here looking for her, and she blinks a couple of times before giving a nod of confirmation that she did know Fayte.
"Yes, yes she's my friend." Kate replies, suddenly feeling a swell of happiness that the other sixteen year old had cared enough to come and find her. How she'd managed to track her here though, Kate had no clue, but she doesn't much care about the details. "Can... can I see her?" She adds, the stutter returning just slightly as another residual tremor wracks her body.
