[He gazed at her in confusion then put a hand to his head as his vision swam for a moment. He needed to focus. He'd blacked out in her lab and found himself here. Alone. With her. Logically, that meant she was responsible, but he didn't want to believe it.]
Why...What did you drug me with?
[Whatever this stuff was, it was bad. And as a doctor, she would've known exactly what it'd do to him.]
A little thing I made myself. Impressive, isn't it?
I tested on a few EVOs, but... I may have given you too high of a dosage. All well. [She shrugged against the pipe.] Maybe nothing'll happen or maybe you'll have hallucinations of fire ants eating you alive.
Either way, worse case scenario, you'll probably croak. Doubtful, but probably.
[Her big smile never faded, as she turned her head to the side. Her next words weren't as chirpy as the rest of her speech. In fact, it sounded quite cruel.]
[He had to grudgingly nod. She'd clearly planned all this out carefully, too high a dosage not withstanding.]
[He wanted to stand sure and strong in front of her, but that drug of hers was doing a number on his sense of balance. He reached out to steady himself with the wall.]
[She sighed. Clearly, he had yet to grasp exactly what she had been trying to tell him. Apparently, the drug and the creepy school weren't enough.]
[Neither was her working day in and out, looking for any chance of a cure with a bunch of people that never let her get anywhere all because she was just one step behind HIM.]
See, Six. You're not scared of the dark, soooo someone has to put a stop to all this.
I mean, if we're both around, nothing's ever going to get done and since I'm the only person that's useful to the entire population of humanity, I'd say that you are going to have to go.
[She leaned off of the pipe, lifting it in the air and putting it across her shoulders.]
[He had to be hearing all this wrong. He took a step back, violently shaking his head in an attempt to clear it as he tried to sort out what she was saying.]
Holiday...you...
[He should be running. He should be trying to get away from her. She'd said she was going to kill him. He needed to defend himself.]
[But this was Holiday. And somehow--despite the fact she seemed to have no qualms about kill him--he couldn't bring himself to hurt her.]
[He randomly ducked into a hallway, following the path to a door. But as he pushed on the doors, he discovered that they wouldn't budge. Blinking rapidly, he found them nailed shut.]
No, no, no.
[He leaned back against the door, closing his eyes and trying to get the world to stop spinning. He wanted to lie down and go to sleep. But he couldn't. If he stopped to lie down, he might not be able to get back up again though whether it was because of her drug or because of her beating him to death with that pipe, he couldn't be sure. Either fate wasn't pleasant.]
[And if he believed that, she had some nice oceanfront property to sell him in Nevada.]
[He put a hand to his head, running his fingers through his short hair. All right. Time to assess the situation. Holiday had apparently lost her mind and felt the need to kill him. Whatever he'd done to bring on such a response, he wasn't sure.]
[Think, think, think. There had to be a clue in what she'd said somewhere...Something he could use against her maybe.]
[He bowed his head, trying to think of something.]
[That phrase. The one about all the things he could do. That was the pattern, right? But it seemed like exaggeration in some cases. Or in this case just outright mockery.]
Gotta be something...
[He viciously shook his head as that desire to fall asleep threatened to take him again.]
drug induced Six is dense XDdoc_holiJune 30 2011, 20:37:41 UTC
[Holiday sighed, enjoying her little game of cat and mouse. Getting bored, she started humming to herself again, looking down every hall she came by.]
Come on out, Six. I miss you.
[She wasn't lying. She really did miss him. More than anything, she wanted to see him right now... so she can test out how well her new pipe could bash in his face under the conditions of her newest drug.]
Cut him some slack; he's drugged out of his mind. XDsixthdeadliestJune 30 2011, 20:50:15 UTC
[He could hear her humming getting closer. He started moving again, moving as silently as possible, knowing he wasn't as stealthy as normal.]
[Holiday had the advantage here. He hated thinking of her as a threat, but if he wanted to live, he'd have to.]
[He ducked into a classroom. The science room if the chemistry equipment was anything to go by. He went to the window, unsurprised when he found it was sealed.]
[Think, think, think! There had to be something he could use to even the playing field.]

I don't want to kill you, Six.
[She shrugged.]
Buuut, I have to.

[HE CAN JUST DO IT ALL, CAN'T HE?]
I am sort of torn here, though. The sooner this is over, the better, but I'm curious on how that drug will work out.
Not to mention-... Well. You can do everything, but I'll admit. I haven't heard you scream.
All well.
[She sighed, cheschire grin never fading as she started walking to him, dragging the pipe along the floor.]
That would just make you better qualified, wouldn't it? I wouldn't be surprised if they give your job to your corpse once this is over.
Anyway, don't move, 'kay? I want to see how far you can get with a broken leg on the drug.

[He stumbled back and turned, breaking into an off-balance run. He needed to burn this stuff out of his system so he could think clearly.]

Siiiiiix. Where are you going? This is screwing up my test!
[She huffed. Running after him may not be the best bet. In combat, Six was always the alpha and in that respect, she could understand.]
[BUT. ONCE AGAIN. She needed something done and no one was listening.]
[Sure, she had laid a few traps, but nothing that would contain. Just things that could hurt him. Then again, she would have to set them off.]
[She screamed after him.]
Once again, you're only making more work for me!
[Holiday huffed, taking another hall. She would just have to cut him off, that's all.]

[He needed a plan or at the very least options.]
Come on...Think.

[She didn't care if he knew where she was. She wanted to find him and, knowing Six, he would eventually let up and search her out.]
[That was one thing about him. She knew him. She knew him very well.]
Siiiiiiiiiiiix. Come on out.
[The thought that she might have scared him flitted across her mind and she smiled again. The happiness could be heard in her voice.]
I won't hurt you! Promise!
[She couldn't help the laugh.]

Oh, come on! Are you really scared of a woman? Not you.
YET ANOTHER THING YOU CAN DO! I'm impressed, Six!
[She walked through the halls, laughing.]
Come on, Six. You know me. I would never hurt you.
