Thrax; 8nods8
Ozzie: Go on
Olivia: I remember the last thing as a kid was being approached by some guy in a priest suit. I remember him wen he was there during our orphanage open day where I was performing with the kids choir. I remember my handler waking me up n said he will take care of me frm now on
Thrax; Can ya describe them?
Olivia: *shook her head* Cant, the room was dark, it was nighttime wen he took me. Then I remember he passed me to a fat short man. I think he lives in...in a boathouse at the bowels
Ozzie: *realized* Does he hv like a weird tuft for hair?
Olivia; *thought, then nods*
Thrax; 8snarled8
Ozzie: Phlegmming. I should've known he'd be on to this
Thrax; Least he's dead
Ozzie: Wat else do u remember, sweetie?
Olivia: I...I remember being handed to him, then a few days later, someone else came to visit him, someone tall n thin n smartly dressed
Thrax; 8arched a brow8
Ozzie: *tapped his chin* How smart? Do u remember wat kind of clothes he's wearing?
Olivia: Umm...I remember he's a brain cell...N he wears a red tie
Thrax; 8looked at Ozzy8
Ozzie: Tht would be... *gasped* Tht's Tom! Tom Colonic! He always wear red ties wen he's at work!
Thrax; 8nods8
Ozzie: Wat else, sweetie?
Olivia: Umm, I dont remember wat was said btwn this Phlegmming n Colonic, bt later on, Phlegmming passed me to Colonic, n I remember being taken to the labs
Thrax; 8inhaled sharply8
Ozzie: R u OK with telling us this?
Olivia: *nods* I need to get it out of my chest. I...remember being put inside some sort of liquid cylinder. I remember being injected evryday wiht some weird cold solution n I remember taken out of the cylinder once a day aftr injection to a machine tht makes me dangle in midair, with harnesses on my wrists n ankles
Thrax; You don''t need to continue
Ozzie: Yeah, its OK, if u feel uncomfortable abt it
Olivia: *shook her head* I'm OK, reli
Thrax; 8bit his lip8
Olivia: The last thing I remember so far is coming out of the lab, n this Colonic told me tht I will be his mascot for his campaign. He told me all I need to do is sing wen he wants me to, so I did
Thrax; 8snarled8
Ozzie: So tht's how he won the election, by using Olivia! Bt why u? Wat does ur singing hv to do with him?
Olivia: *shook her head* I dunno. I only remember tht far *cuddled close to Ozzie, still sitting on both her parents' lap*
Thrax; 8stroked her hair8
Olivia: I'm scared. I'm scared watevr they did to me will repeat itself. I hv a feeling I hv done something terrible, n its coz of my singing
Thrax; Angel, it wasn't your fault
Ozzie: Yeah, if ur gonna blame someone, blame those guys who did this to u
Olivia: I dont evn knw if Olivia is my real name either. U knw the tradition. A parent is supposed to name their child. Those guys r not my parents. U guys r
Thrax; 8nuzzled her8
Ozzie: Well, I think ur name suites u just fine. Bt if it makes u feel better, frm henceforth, ur name will be Olivia Luna Jones-Roja. Luna bcoz I remember giving birth to u on a full-moon's night

Olivia: Will they...? Aftr how I behaved last time...?
Thrax; They'll understand
Olivia: *nods* OK, I guess I could stay for dinner
