skinned pretty African-American woman in a doctor’s coat, two armed guards.
     
    “Gentleman, welcome,” she began. “Ms. Rule. I am Dr. Silver Downs,” she said, shaking Rain’s hand, warmly. “I will be performing your tests,” she said. “Please, follow me,” she turned, the grouping following her.
     
    They waited with her at a large elevator, she swiped her card and the doors opened. Once inside, she swiped another card, placed her hand upon a sensor and an automated voice spoke, “Confirmed identity, welcome Dr. Downs. Which floor?”
     
    “Subbasement,” Dr. Downs commanded and the lights upon the panel lit up, the elevator began a swift descent downwards.
     
    Once the doors opened, they stepped out into a brightly lit lobby, this time four armed guards in attendance. They nodded Dr. Downs and the group through before they stopped at a large door and Dr. Downs swiped a card, placed her hand upon a sensor while a red light read her iris.
     
    “Welcome, Dr. Downs,” a voice said, the door slid open and they walked into a large lab filled with every medical and scientific equipment known to man, while five other white jacket clad people worked quietly. The glanced up, stilling upon the entrance of the newcomers.
     
    “Doctors, may I please introduce you to Rain Rule,” Dr. Downs said, smiling slightly. “Finally,” she said.
     
    The doctors nodded, there were a couple of brief smiles.
     
    One of the doctors, a tall, Hispanic male walked towards the group. “Welcome, welcome, we have waited for you for quite some time,” he said. “I am Dr. D’Ares. Between Dr. Downs and me we will run the bulk of your testing,” he said, shaking Rain’s hand.
     
    “Yes, of course,” Rain said.
     
    “There has been a change of plan, Dr. Downs, Dr. D’Ares. Ms. Rule will oversee the testing of all of her samples and those samples will be returned, untouched,” Enlai said, his voice held no warmth, but just a cold determination, his rule would not be broken by others. “Is that understood.”
     
    “But, we will need her samples for further testing,” Dr. D’Ares said in confusion. “The testing that is needed, the more in depth testing will take days to fully run and evaluate.”
     
    “Then I suggest you run the most important and most time efficient test, Dr. D’Ares,” Rain interrupted. “If there is a problem I will leave.”
     
    “Yes, of course,” Dr. Downs said, smoothing the awkward silence. “Come, please, there is a changing room,” she said.
     
    “Alright,” Rain followed Dr. Downs’s slim form, not trusting her or the other doctors in the room. She tried once again to search thoughts but instantly grew nauseated with a headache. Once she stopped the headache quickly receded.
     
    Dr. Downs admitted her into a small, sterile room; upon a hospital bed was a hospital gown, slippers and a plastic bag. “You may place your clothes in the plastic bag and lock them in one of the lockers, there are keys, and you can hold the key or give it to someone in your party. When you are finished changing, just open the door and we can begin.”
     
    “Thank you,” Rain returned and shut the door behind the door, quickly placing her clothes in the plastic bag and changing into the hospital gown and slippers. She made sure that there were no loose hairs of hers in the room and washed her hands thoroughly twice when there was a knock on the door.
     
    “Come in,” she said turning towards the door.
     
    “Great,” Dr. Downs said, Dr. D’Ares behind her. In their hands were clipboards. “Please, lay upon the bed, Ms. Rule,” she said, while both her and Dr. D’Ares sat upon two rolling stools. “If you don’t mind we will record this session.”
     
    “That’s fine,” Rain said, settling unto the bed.
     
    “Please state your full name,” Dr. D’Ares began.
     
    “Rain Rule.”
     
    He paused. “No middle name?” He asked as he and Dr. Downs’s pens flew across
