"Yuck, your actually going to eat that raw?! I mean, I love food but I love it cooked!" Sam made a face at the girl just across from him (Usha, and I'm going to have Danielle be in the cage just beside him), watching as she stuck some raw meat into her mouth.
Sarah drew away from the clipboard, placing the pen back and brushing a stay strand of hair back away from her face. Though her expression was stern and thoughts hidden behind an impassive wall, the longer Sarah spent in the room the more she wanted to get out. Not because the people who were in here frightened her or she considered them as freaks, but becaue how awful she thought all of this to be. What had happened to the labs good notions, about curing cancer? Now they were taking people off the streets and injecting them with something that transformed them into something they weren't.
Just then, the doors leading into the room burst open, and Professor Ashe took a step back in surprise, raising her clipboard slightly as if to defend herself. Just over the edge, she saw that it was a girl who ran in, a look of fear upon her features as she turned and ran back out. However, Sarah's own eyes widened with shock when the girl was transforming right before her eyes, as if this was the first time she had seen it.
Snapping out of it, she stood in a more appropriate stance, seeming about to head out there herself when she paused. It was now dark in the room, but just at the corner of her eye she caught movement. Turning toward this, she realized it was coming from Danielle's cage which she was just standing beside, but instead of seeing Danielle, Sarah saw a snow leopard, its white fur showing clearly out of the darkness.
Amazing, Sarah couldn't help the scientific part of her mind from working. She was able to transform without a problem, and its only been days...
Blinking and regaining control, Sarah forced herself to focus on what was going on, heading right toward the door.
"Aw man, who shut out the lights?" Sam had withdrew back into his cage, blinking constantly to adjust his eyes in the sudden darkness. "I know we were bored and wanted some excitement, but yeesh!"
