Cabby woke up, feeling the cold concrete under her. She propped herself up  with her arms and looked around, the walls had clearly been tile before, but the tile had fallen off, some pieces remanded on the wall, although they were shattered. The lights above her hummed as she was left alone in a state of shock
Footsteps echoed through the cold halfway outside of cabby door

"Did I do it?"

"Fan. You shouldn't have brou-"

"But it was your plan! " fan shouted, not understanding

Test tube sighed
"Okay. Well, I'm sure 48 is awake, so take my clipboard, ask her the questions on it and then write the answers down. That easy enough?"

"Oh! Yea, I won't let you down!" Fan said cheerily

Soon the door to cabbys room freaked open, she saw fan, smiling.
She turned away, trying to ignore him

"Hi cabby! Hmm could you answer a few questions? "
He gently tapped her on the shoulder
She stayed silent

"Cabby?" His cheery tone faded

"Cabby."
He was getting irritated at her ignoring him

"CABBY!" he yelled, making her flinch, although she knew he wouldn't do anything.

"What?"

"I'm sorry, uh.. I'm gonna ask some questions." Fan took a deep breath before looking at his clipboard and clicking the pen

Cabby nodded

"One to ten, how do your legs feel?"

"Uh 10? they don't feel"

Fan jotted her response down with his shaky handwriting

"Okay, uh that's the only one for now.
I could've sworn there was more.. "

"Fan? "
Cabby looked up

He looked her in eyes, not a shred of emotion showing in his expression

She hesitated
"Can I get my wheelchair at least?"

"I'll ask."
He walked out, leaving Cabby.

She had to get out. If it was the last thing she did, she would get out.

Fan skipped over to Test Tube, and handed her the clipboard. He sat on a rolling chair.
Test tube jotted down something on her own clipboard

"Test tube?" Fan felt clingy, but at the same time he felt ignored

Test tube looked at him

"Uh wanna go get some lunch? "

"Hm.. Ok fan, you go get us some food and come back here. I don't really want to go anywhere. "
Test tube pushed her chair to a computer, seemingly programing a chip

Fan admired her determination, so he wouldn't dare interrupt that. He left the lab and called his old work to order some takeout

Test tube sat in her cold, brightly lit lab when she noticed cabby yelling her lungs out, her voice echoed up the stairs and reverberated through the scientists workplace.  Test tube took out C-48's file, and wrote down the first test

___
T-1
SUB: C-48
SUBJECTS ALREADY USELESS LEGS WILL BE SAWED OFF, BANDAGED AND WILL BE DISINFECTED EVERY WEEK,
IT WILL BE ADMINISTERED A COCKTAIL OF DRUGS TO FORCE LEGS TO GROW AND WORK
_____

It honestly seemed easy enough, all that test tube needed to do today was saw C-48's legs off.

Fan entered the lab once again, but this time he had two boxes of  Teriyaki chicken with lo mein noodles, it was always his favorite, so he thought he might as well order the same thing for test tube.
"I'm back!" he said in a singsong voice

Test tube got up from her chair to eat with her newfound assistant.
" so, fan, how was cabby? "

"She seems pretty normal.. Stubborn though."

"She always has been, I've been thinking we should let her weaken a tad bit, just so she doesn't hurt you"
Test tube put her head on her hand, watching fans face grow red

"Oh! Th-that's really nice of you.. "
Fans adoration of the woman in front of him grew by the second

Test tube finished eating
"Hey, what if we go check up on the hotel? "

"Hm.. Yea! I promised movie night with knife and pickle though, soo.. "

"Oh that's fine"

The two split up at the hotel.
Test tube decided to go to the nightly party. Tonight was scheduled as a special party though, it was the start of the Christmas countdown parties. Basically there was gonna be a party every night, up until Christmas. For now, the hotel was quiet, and the party wasn't even close. She heard a phone ringing and went to see what was going on

"Hello, hotel oj, this is oj speaking, how may I help you? " Oj had a customer service voice

"Wait.. What? No, she's not here?"
His tone turned to concern

He sighed
"I guess we could get a search party.. "

"Ok, bye. "

Test tube  knew what the call was for and went over to fan, pulling him to her room to talk

"Fan, they noticed cabby is missing."

He was shocked.
"Well, they don't know where she is, right?"

" there's gonna be a search party and I know damn well that somebody here knows about my lab."

"Oh.. "

"We'll be okay, just.. We can't do this at day. "

Fan nodded and test tube walked around the hotel. This time test tube was looking for someone to talk to

That's when microphone walked up to her. Test tubes brain filled to the brim with insults at the sight of the friend killing, thief. Just as she was turning around mic grabbed her arm
"Test tube, wait."

She sighed
"Fine."

"I didn't- no.. I. I did some horrible things, and I understand that you hate me because of it, but I wanted to at least apologize.. And give you this"
Mic handed her a brand new blanket

"Why?"

"Well, for one, in sorry. And for two, it's freezing down there, that can't be healthy for you! "

Test tube smiled at the sentiment
"Thanks."

What the two girls hadn't noticed was someone looking around the wall, obsessively thinking about test tube, and thinking about what mic was trying to do. Was she flirting? He couldn't really tell, but he wouldn't take that's risk. He went to his room and started writing a letter.
