Chad opened the door and nodded for Jason to come in. "I'm glad you came," he said, sounding very genuine.
The doctor moved inside and motioned for Jason to sit down while poured them both a cup of coffee. When he sat down across from the other man, he had a check in his hand. Taking out a pen, he quickly filled out and signed the check, handing it over to Jason.
"First things first," he said, nodding to the check. It was made out for $100,000, and it was a personal check. There was no denying that this man was not only rich, but he was honest. He had every intention of paying Jason back for the suffering he caused all of those years ago, just like he had with the other runaways.
"Do what you need with it," he said, "Take care of the girl and the baby, and if you need more, just let me know."
Sitting back in his chair, he sipped his coffee. The man had aged a bit since he had first been brought on to the mutation project. Instead of an eager doctor fresh out of med school, the man was wise and aware of what was going on... He wasn't sure if he'd ever get over the guilt he felt for what he helped with, but he had made it his life mission to try and help those like Jason.
"However, I do need a few things in return," he said, making eye contact with Jason. "I'm relocating the other runaways to here in Louisiana. They all stay in a house with me in California, but I like it here. I think they would do better here. Less people, more freedom. It's in the middle of no where, and that's what they need. I already have a job lined up here, so it works." He shrugged. "There's only a hand full of them, but I want you to join our little... community. You can live in your house. That's fine. I would just like to keep contact, and I'd like to do a few tests on you. Each one of you are different, and it helps me to know how you work so that I can help you control your urges and instincts." He looked at Jason, making sure to give him enough time to process what he was saying before moving on. "I need your cooperation, and in turn, I've give you the help you need."
"You may ask why I am doing this," he said after a moment, "Three quarters of it is out of guilt... I hate myself every day for what I have done." He took a cigarette out and lit it, taking a few puffs. "However, part of it is because I have a plan... A plan to get enough people out of the project so that we can fight. In short, I want the government to pay. I want a revolt to take place, and just by the look you gave me at the party, I think you want them to pay too." He smirked a little. "Which is good, because I need the help of the one man who managed to escape the program without any help."
