Two beds are on either side of this cell, as well as a crude bench and a sink.

::The door is opened and Dante and Moira are thrown in. Wake up when you wish. The door is locked behind you. You cannot escape, even using magic. There is a small CCTV camera in the top corner. Magic does not work on it.::

::Dante wakes up and stares at the ceiling while his head pounds from Serenity's punch. If he'd known her name he would have no doubt commented on the irony, but oh well::

"Mother fucking shit..."

::He sits up, holding a hand to his head, and looks over at Moira. He immediately gets to his feet and goes to check on her::

"Alive."

(For now...)

::He adds onimously to himself and then turns to walk towards the door, his hand twisting the handle but to no avail::

"Bitch! Let me out!"

::His connection to telekinesis reaffirms as he slams both palms down on the door and pulses enough force to hopefully make the hinges snap::

[You wish. Any attempts at magic on the objects in the room will not work.]

::The door stands firm and Dante steps back as fear begins to infect him. He looks around the room and spots the security camera and lashes out with a clawing motion and a snarl. Instead of ripping from the wall the camera stays intact::

"Oh fucking no no no."

::He turns around and looks everywhere in the room trying to figure out a way out. But there was none that he could see::

(Unless I get Moira to chew her way out through the floor)

::With a defeated sigh he sits back on the bed and tries to rethink an escape plan::

(Veronica can come and rescue us... We're so doomed)

[In case it's not obvious, your powers don't work.]

::Moira mutters something in her sleep and furrows her brow. But she doesn't wake up.::

::Dante gets up and rolls Moira from side to side then off the bed and onto the floor::

"Wake up, you fat sow, we're in some kind of cell! And they've done something to my magic!"

"There is no such thing as 'magic', Dante. Please take your medication and you may be brought out of the cell."

::A section at the bottom of the door opens and a tray with two cups of pills and two glasses of water slides in. The section closes and locks.::

"If you wanna see proof of magic let me out of this cell!"

::Dante says, not even rising from the bed, just shouting randomly into midair::

(Pill under the tongue trick? It worked in Paris that one time...)

::He reaches out and takes up the pills, holding them up to see them more closely, then puts them in his mouth. Once inside he feigns swallowing and subtly puts them under his tongue::

"Oh my... the pretty colours... I feel so relaxed."

::He lies back on the bed and waits while trying not to get the pills too wet::

::After a few minutes, the door opens and Sister Hepzibah stalks in. She looks at Moira on the floor but doesn't find her to be too much of a threat, so ignores her. She instead looks at Dante.::

"Come with me."

::She brings him out to the cell corridor.::

::The door opens and the nun walks in, lifting Moira up and forcing her the pills. Since Moira is so fat, we'll assume she had no problem swallowing them. The nunny-bunny then takes her to the recreation room.::

::Moira walks in to the room and lies down on a bed, wondering what was going to happen.::

::After thinking for a while, Moira decides to have a walk and view the premises once again. She wanders outside.::

::Andrea closes the door behind herself and stares at the room, clenching and unclenching her fists.::

(God...)

::She closes her eyes and makes herself relax.::

(It's okay. They know not what they...)

::Breathing a little more easily now, she gets onto a bed then shuffles into the corner and leans against the wall. She closes her eyes and lets herself think about things.::

::Paige opens the door and looks at Andrea.::

"Knock knock."

::Andrea looks up and is quite surprised to see that it's Paige. She watches her for a second, before speaking.::

"I really do just want to be alone, you know."

"Well, I figured there's less chance of us being kidnapped and shocked if we're in groups, and on top of that, I wanted to talk to you. They didn't send me. I came myself."

::Paige closes the door behind her and goes to sit on the bed opposite Andrea's. She stares at her.::

::Andrea looks away. She doesn't feel up to much chat. After a few seconds of enduring Paige watching her, she sighs and looks up.::

"What?"

"Julie told us you were there when she got... her therapy. She said the nun messed around with your mind."

"If she was telling lies then it wouldn't have made so much sense."

::Paige nods.::

"Those were kinda my thoughts."

::She shifts, looking uncomfortable.::

"She knew so much about me. Like, all these things that even my sisters wouldn't have guessed. She knew like, how I felt at different times in my life, and what things I struggled with, and she explained it all to me and she was... she was just so right. It was hard not to believe."

::Andrea's big brown eyes flicker over Paige, seeing how fragile she looks.::

"She told me I hurt my friends by pulling them into my world. And she's not wrong, Paige. I do hurt people. I don't mean it... but... well look at Azura. And she had me tied to this chair and Julie to the bed, and when I answered her questions wrong, she hurt Julie. That was my fault too. I know it was extreme, but it was her way of showing me."

"She told me that I'd been so desperate for my sisters to accept me when I met them I made myself believe in magic just so they would love me more."

::Paige shrugs.::

"I was always kinda spiritual before I met them, but... never that much... I didn't believe in powers."

"And when you met them, and they believed in them, you wanted them to accept you so you forced yourself to see things the same way."

::Andrea grimaces.::

::Paige nods.::

"Yeah."

::She leans back, climbing up to lean against the wall.::

"That's what she said. At the time it didn't seem so far-fetched. Now it's... well, pretty unbelievable, but some part of me is wondering."

"That's what they'll do. They'll drum it out of us. Because that's what happens. They'll slowly convince us that we're wrong and they're right. After what's happened today, I can honestly say I don't know who's right. I want to believe it's me, and for the most part I do... it's just..."

"Yeah."

"Something doesn't make sense to me, though. How could all of us be having the same delusion? You know, we all live in the same world, fight the same demons, acknowledge each other's powers and if I had to describe yours, I bet it'd be the same as your description. How can we share something like this and all have exactly the same ideas and view of it? It's like sharing a dream - it just doesn't happen, you know?"

::She pauses.::

"... unless that was somebody's magical power..."

"I've thought about that too. I think we all have."

::Paige scooches forward again and puts her elbows on her knees, clasping her hands.::

"What do you think, Andrea? Should we make a decision now?"

"I don't know. The longer we go on, the more we'll not believe. And I don't know what the right thing to believe is. Maybe we're actually wrong regardless of how strongly we feel..."

"Like believing in God."

"Well... yes, I suppose it is like that. I believe in God, and I don't think anything could change that, and I feel that I'm right in believing He exists... but then there's others who don't believe, and they feel they're right, but really I suppose we never know. We never have proof, really. Just faith. Or no faith."

"But with... we do have proof. Don't we?"

"So it's not really the same. Just the feeling of being unable to know if you're right or wrong, but having a certain believe regardless. This whole thing is like them trying to make me believe there is no God that I have proof exists."

::Revelation!::

"This is ridiculous, Paige! I can't prove God exists but I know He does! This is stupid! I wouldn't let them sway me on that belief, so why would I on this one? I know magic exists. I know it does. That's my decision."

"Deal."

::Paige gets up and grabs Andrea's hand, shaking it once.::

"Let's not let them get to us. And now I'm suddenly paranoid that that man nun is going to come for us, so let's run."

::And she drags Andrea back to cell 2.::

[BOOM! The asylum crumbles to rubble as it's blown up.]
