The drugs don't keep working as well as Delia would like. She gets her scans, her initial examinations, but she doesn't get to the interesting stuff, the hands-on, internal exams, before they begin to wear off.
Delia Harbor, head of Human Resources in NYC Facility 12. Has such a nice ring to it, mm? She has Dominic's old office, and a jar on her desk with a brain in it. All is well in her world.
Del is locked in her room. That's not a good place for someone already unstable to be. She really really wants out. There's a lot of thumping on the door. And because the web's open, she can whisper in people's ears.
Like Dom's.
Incredible. He tricked you into thinking it was your idea. I'd hoped you were smarter than that.
Aurelius is going to win this, you know. We all know it. He'll kill everyone Andy left behind, and then he'll come for us. Grey, your daughter's probably the most expendable of us. God knows, she's a liability.
And don't think I haven't heard your oaths to kill him, Allen, Grey. That'll just make things worse. Right now, we have Facility 12 on our asses. And I'd wager that Aurelius hasn't told his superiors about our little insurrection. Looks bad on his report. But if he disappears, they'll know. And then we'll have the entire organization on us. Treaty or no treaty, we'll never survive that.
