Where did I go wrong, I lost a friendღღSomewhere along in the bitternessღ
The lab was empty about now, the clock was off and most of the scientists had left for the night-but one young, pretty scientist was still working hard. Her hair was tied in a long, curly pony tail falling down her white lab coat like a chocolate waterfall. She wore a magenta turtleneck under her lap coat and dark colored boot cut jeans that hung over her low black shoes. She wore gorgeous diamond stud earrings and a winged necklace under her turtleneck sweater. Fashionable glasses hung from her neck from a chain.
It was Dr. Scarlet Beaumont, a skilled and dedicated scientist. She was looking into a microscope then turned back to a large notebook and pulled on her glasses, writing something quickly into a log beside her. She nipped the side of her lip, giving a small sigh at the results. She pulled off her glasses and let them fall around her neck. She felt a slight tug on her chain as she leaned down once more to look into her slide, then she switched to another, peering in further now. She sighed and once again pulled on her glasses and recorded a couple notes.
Someone from a nearby office peeked out, "Come'on Scarlet. It's nearly eleven o'clock. Time to call it quits. You can come back tomorrow morning, go home... get some rest." an elderly scientist called out. He was one of the senior scientists, her supervisor at that. He was kind enough but Scarlet didn't want to leave just yet. "Just ten more minutes Dr. Quinn." she said, her voice just a little desperate. The doctor paused for a moment, "Fine, I'm going to go get some coffee, I'll be back in ten minutes.". The door shut and she heard footsteps leaving the office and down the hallway.
She turned back to her work and pulled on her glasses, working for only a few moments before hearing the automatic door open from the main hallway in the neighboring room and footsteps enter it. She sighed and left her work, "Dr. Quinn! You said ten minutes!" she protested, going towards the large archway between the two rooms. There was no answer from the intruder, she felt her heart thud in her chest, it was late and dark... she peeked around her corner.

Tonight We are young
James was kneeling, as Scarlet poked her head out the door around the corner. A look of worry on her face."Down here Scarlet"He said in a slow voice, that had deep meaningless thought behind it. Not bothering to look up at her, he was re-buckling his boot and wiping off some left over snow. He stood up smiling at her, and hoping she was not going to be in such a shy mood. James could tell she was not to fond of men and he did not blame her one once for it, men were stupid, he should know. Walking past her and into the warmish air of the lab, he stopped by a chair and took of his coat. The long trench coat was damp from the snow, and so was his pants but he could not do anything about that. He choose keep his hat and gloves on, the lab may warm but that was because he had just been out in 20 degree weather.
James rubbed his shoulder's as he watched Scarlet walk back to her station and the doors close. He look around at all the gizmo's and gadgets, veils and those wired glass chemistry things that he never bothered with in school. They looked like the ones he had back at his loft for potion use but he just called them doohickeys.haha doohickeysHe laughed in his mind, he was slightly high having smoked a few hours ago. He still found things to be extremely funny though.
Feeling that it been awhile since he talked to or acknowledged her he walked up next her making sure not to touch anything."So I came down here to check on the prototype...you know that one that like shoots the small darts out of it and it like knocks the target out" He voice was still slow but this time it sounded like he was explaining but questioning at the same time."Yea so.... He said back to his slow voice. James rocked back and forth on his heals and almost tripped, giggling at his almost pain secession.

Scarlet sighed, it was just Mr. Spears. Of coarse it just had to be a guy. She couldn't say she disliked him, but was he agitating? VERY. Or at least, not less than most testosterone induced males that infuriated her belong ignorance. She slightly rolled her eyes and left the room, "Good evening, Mr. Spears, but may I ask you to please call me Dr. Beaumont." she said, her voice professional but with a hint of chill to it.
She pulled off her eyeglasses for only a moment to check her slide in the microscope, only to be rudely interrupted once more with his explanation of his appearance. "As you know, Mr. Spears, I have no affiliation with the weapons department and I am afraid, you'll just have to wait until morning when working hours begin." she said with slight aggravation in her voice. It was late and she had to admit, it made her rather sensitive to the annoying qualities of masculine immaturity.
Now, Scarlet knew very well (as most likely did James) that she could give him any files, data or prototype that was waiting for pickup as her duty to the science branch of the Vires but, well. She just didn't want to. Her ten minutes of time were flickering away as the seconds melted away into the river of the past. She leaned back to the mircoscope but before she could look back in he nearly stumbled backward.
Scarlet did notice he seemed just a bit... off. She gave a 'huff' of annoyance and pulled out a stool from under the counter, gesturing him to sit on it, "Sit there before you break something." she said flatly, rolling her eyes slightly and putting back on her glasses. He looked almost... drunk. She leaned on one leg and crossed her arms, "What do you need with it anyway? It's only a prototype it won't be in use for another few months now after it's been properly tested." she asked, her eyes occasionally darting to her work. Why now? Why not when Dr. Quinn was here and HE could deal with the idiotic gunman that decided to stroll into the lab after hours? Why her?

James rolled his eyes as he took the seat, she was not going to be shy she was going to be a pris."Look you can give it to me or I can call for it. He was just about sober now, maybe just a bit wobbly on his feet. He pulled at his sleeve abit and the yellow jewel glowed.'I'm here on orders from Miss Summers. She wants it now and I know you can pull it out." He looked at her his head cocking to the side"So Dr. Beaumont that prototype?" smiling a fake smile at the Dr.

Scarlet did not move her head, she stared at him with her eyes blazing in pure contempt. She looked to the stone that he held in his hand and she tightened her lips, waves of dislike and irritation drenched the entire room in complete silence. She took a breath and with a small sigh to her words she muttered, "Well, it'd be a shame to mess up the lab." she said, her voice drier than desert sand. Who does he think he is, threatening my like that?
She pivoted around and walked down towards the office where Dr. Quinn had been, the main office for the heads of departments which kept all the recent records as well. She opened the door quietly, checking that the office was empty. She didn't wish to disturb anybody. She quietly opened one of the filing cabinets marked current weapon prototypes and flipped to enhanced tranquilizer dart gun, prototype, version.0014. She opened the folder and looked over it, adjusting her glasses slightly to help her read it. She walked towards him, her eyes still on the folder back towards her work area.
As she approached him she read, "It does say here that Miss. Summers had requested pickup to assist in the gun trials that should take place this evening but it does not say that you were meant to be the one who was going to pick it up." she looked up from her reading to the field officer whom was her irritation. "But. It is supposed to be in the armory on the second floor, currently under lock and key in the restricted zone." she sighed, she'd now have to go get it with him. She wasn't authorized to give him the key, which was taped to the folder, and she wasn't one to go breaking the rules all willy nilly, no matter how much she wished to focus on her work. She closed the folder and looked back to James, "I guess we'll just have to go get it." she said, her voice dry and irritated once more.

James grabbed his coat, and draped it over his arm. He followed her to the other lab and watched as she pulled out a folder. He tapped his foot as he waited. She made a remark about how, yes it was requested, but he was not the origanl recvier."Oh, Agent Remington had a bit of an inccdent yesterday with a unruly nymph,funny really. She used vines to hoist him up. Ankels and wrsit are totally smashed." He explained in his layed back tone and was smiling to him self as he remeberd the inccdent.
Scarlet then said that the prototype was no in the lab, but on the second floor. He rolled his eyes, not at her but at April. She had called him around an hour ago basicly screaming at him to go get the damn thing. So he had to get out of bed at two in the morning and get dressed and go out in the snow. He yanwded at the thought of it."Well lead the way then." James stepped around her and to doors that slid open one he got cloes enough. He gestured his arm out to the hall way, following one she was out.

Scarlet snorted, only a man could laugh at the misfortune of others. She sighed and closed the folder, tucking it under her arm so her hands were free. "Right. Okay. Yes, I too always find it funny to hear the misfortune of others. Broken wrists and ankles are a fairly good reason to not have the ability to arrive to pick it up." she said, her voice unimpressed at his lack of remorse for his co-worker's pain.
She looked at him coldly as he gestured her to go first. At least he had some sort of common etiquette somewhere in him. She straightened her back and tilted her head slightly upwards, showing her dignity as she swiftly walked past him and down the rather dimly lit, quiet halls towards the elevator. She pressed the button and stood in the proper place to wait for an elevator, about two and a half paces away so anyone that may be getting out has room to leave but close enough so people knew she was waiting for the elevator. She did not look as James approached her. She had to do her best to pretend that he was not near her.
Now, if you actually knew Scarlet's story, you'd say she may have had... Daddy issues. That was most likely the reason for her distaste for men. Her father had abandoned her when she was very young because of what she was, and her brother had abandoned her without consideration on how much she needed him. She did not blame them, they had taught her that men could not be trusted and she thanked them for that. She remembered the day she had seen her father for the first time after he left the family. He was a high-ranking officer here at the Vires, leading the campaign against supernaturals. He never changed, did he? Men never changed.
The elevator doors open and she stepped in, practically ignoring James and letting the door almost close on him. She didn't care, he was being a jerk and was kidding himself if he thought she was going to respect him for it. She didn't say a word as they both traveled down the building to the second floor. She stepped out as soon as the door opened and quickly walked down the hall, towards the armory. She passed the main doors and opened the smaller office. It was filled with caged weapons that hung from the wall, all were going through testing. She opened the folder once more and checked the number on the assigned cage. Cage.152.B, she read, taking the taped key from the page. Once more she closed the folder and tucked it under her arm, running her finger on all the numbered cages... 149.. 150... 151... Ahh, 152. She opened the cage and pulled off the gun hanging from hook B. "Here you are. One prototype tranquilizer dart gun." she said as she held it out to him. "You're just going to need to fill out one of the pickup forms. These things must be kept track of at all times." she added with a bit of a pleased smile to take up more of his time. Hey, there was no chance she was going to get any more work done after this-might as well take some extra time from him as well.

"Nahhh, its not. I was laughing at the fact that he got beat up by a girl. You'd think nymphs and faeries would be closer." He said in his lazy tone as they walked into the elevator, the ride being slightly awkward. Once out and into the armory James watched Scarlet search for the prototype. While she was looking he was looking around at some of the weapons. Some he had used some he had not.
James picked up a small silver Tube that had a few familiar runes on it. Knowing better then to spout random incantations, he sat it back and picked up another small tube. This one had no rune son it but a button just a button. He pressed it and a long white cord came out. It was slightly glowing and made of an unknown material. Wanting to find out more James touched it with his right hand, upon contact it burned him."Owwww! What the Fuck!" He dropped the tube as he screamed out loud. He looked up at Scarlet with pain on his face and a gasp. He was not mad just surprised.
He shook his hand, a red line showing on his hand from where the cord burned through his glove. He grabbed the board and the small weapon that was being held out to him.He placed the dart gun into a small case that he had pulled from his pocket, then looking at the forumGreat more forums He thought and rolled his eyes. He filled these out all day when not out and about. His writing hand was still in pain, and resorted to do it the magic way. He carefully pulled up his left arm sleeve with his figures making sure not to use his palm. His yellow jewel again glowed. It was attached to a brown cuffing that he worse at all time. James sat the clip board down on the counter and placed his palm over the paper"SCRIBO" He casted the single word. His jewel glowed a bight yellow light and a small golden orb shot out from it. the orb landed on the paper and began writing out all the information as James thought about it. Magic was great. Once done the small orb flew back into his Jewel. Looking over his work and satisfied he smiled as he handed the clip board back to Scarlet"Here you are"

At first when I see you cry, yeah it makes me smile yeah it makes me smileAt worst I feel bad for a while, but then I just smile I go ahead and smile
Scarlet replied with a cool, fake smile "Well perhaps next time Agent Remington shouldn't underestimate my kind." she said sternly, her eyes narrowing. She took great offence to that considering she was a female and a faerie. Not that Scarlet could beat James when it came to hand-to-hand combat but she was sure plenty of faeries could teach him a lesson to not be so egocentric.
In the armory she glanced as he cried out in pain. She couldn't help but have her lips twitch in amusement. "And that's what you get for messing around in other peoples' business." her voice tinted with a bit of matter-of-factness. She handed him the gun and the form and knelt down to pick up, pressing the button that took in the chord and setting it down on the table with a tsk tsk sound "You do know all these weapons haven't exactly been tested to see if they're, um, safe... right?" she asked simply, as if she was wondering if he'd understand.
She rolled her eyes when he used magic to write out the form, you'll rush into battle but you can write a friggen form? then she reasoned with herself of coarse he could be just showing off.... She took the form and clipboard and placed it in the folder then set both on down on the table, forcibly taking his injured hand, "Now let me see your hand, idiot.". She looked it over, careful to not touch the red area, she wasn't sure what to do about it-but she was pretty sure the infirmary would have some answers. "This looks pretty bad, I think you need to get this checked out by a doctor." she said with a little bit of concern in her voice.
Now, this did NOT mean that she liked him one bit. As a doctor or scientist, it was her duty to work for the people. Supernaturals and humans, no matter what her feelings towards them-well maybe not all-but it would still waste his time further, maybe long enough to send him back late enough for him to get punished for his tardiness.
I couldn't stop laughing, no I just couldn't help myself See you messed up my mental health I was quite unwell[/center][/left]

Jame's face scowled as he looked at the doctor. He blinked a few times, his face changed to say 'Really? Eyebrows raised"No shit Sherlock. I thought I would just go back to my apartment and let it become infected." James slowly at first with a snarly tone and then faster with a sardonic tone.
He tucked away the items, in his jacket and removed his glove. The cord had gashed him pretty deep, though the heat seemed to cauterize it so that bleeding was minimal. It looked as it he was missing a chunk of skin. James looked to Scarlet one last time, scowled and walked away with his boots making an angry click, and made it look as it he was going to the infirmary.

Scarlet 's eyes widened and she backed away, "I was just trying to help, it's no reason to be a jerk." she said, sounding slightly offended, but ending with a scowl. She turned away, her eyes narrowed and she looked over the forms and slid it into the folder. She walked away from him to put away the folder back in the office.
She heard him walk away but didn't turn, she just called, "Don't forget to bring that gun where ever it's supposed to be. I'm not covering for you if some officer blames me if it goes missing." her tone was warning yet still a hint of distaste. She slammed the filing cabinet and walked quickly back to the elevator to clean up after her mess in the lab.
