The interrogation of Sophie Schwab

[Jansen]

[color=#FF99FF] "Well the memories are like a dream you just woke up from. I know that I did something but I can really remember what it was." She paused for a while [color=#FF99FF] "And the gods... I didnt see them yet. I just saw the creatures they send. Beautiful beings."

[aerelm]

He nods calmly and takes a brief look through his notepad again.

- "So, once again, deskribe zose 'beautiful beings', but more clearly zis time, und tell me how did zey communicate vith you."

Then walking back to the seat, he sits down and turns his look back to the girl again.

[Jansen]

She nodded.[color=#FF99FF] "They are big, around twice the size of a Thor and their colors. They change from blue to purple and back, as I already said. They are beautiful." She looked at him, then back on her arms, which started to hurt again.[color=#FF99FF] "And... how did they communicate..." She paused once more. "They didnt talk like humans, they didnt say anything. I always knew what they thought when they communicated with me. I saw pictures that felt real, but they could not be real." She looked at the wall behind Dresner. "It was... as if I would be connected to them."

[aerelm]

Nodding calmly he taps on his notepad putting a check-mark in front of another line.

- "Und vhen zey 'communicated' vith you, vhat did zey generally aim on? Did zey focus on a certain subject, or repeatedly... 'Showed' you a request ov zeirs? You do get ze point ich hope."

And folding his arms again, he waits for the girl's answer.

[Jansen]

[color=#FFFFFF]She was getting a bit nervous when she saw that he tapped something on his notepad, but she tried not to show it.[color=#FF99FF] "I think they didnt aim for anything special. Most of the time they helped me to survive. And in some other encounters they just showed me pictures, but I cant remember which ones. They never forced me to do anything I think." She tried to watch his reaction closely.

---

[aerelm]

"I think?" He mumbled low enough so the girl wont hear it and shook his head with a cold chuckle.

- "Und vhat did you do during ze time you spent vith zese 'Beings sent by gotts'? Did zey follow you around or did you follow zem?"

[Jansen]

[color=#FF99FF] "Well... I think I followed them and they followed me as well, always depending on the situation I guess. I enjoyed their presence, the way they communicate, this thought sharing felt great." She smiled, remembering the encounters. [color=#FF99FF] "But I cant remember the details. Like I said, its like a dream. You wake up and can barely remember what exactly happened." She looked at her arms, the left one was bleeding slightly, but it didnt hurt that much anymore.

[aerelm]

Nodding slightly, Dresner gets up and says as he walks to the panel on the wall.

- "Vell, ich believe ve are done fur today. Ich might be able to arrange a little... 'Surprise' fur you in ze upcoming days, but ve have yet to see about zat."

Then tapping the panel, he speaks in the microphone.

- "Move fraulein Schwab back to her cell, ve are done fur today."

And leans to the wall behind the girl out of her view, and silently watches as the guards move in, remove the straps and blindfold her to move her back to her cell.

10th December, 818 A.S. - 08:49 PM

As the computer in the corner started beeping, Dresner finished his cigarette and came back to the desk and started uploading the extracted Comm Log to his report. Meanwhile, he tapped a few keys and moved his face closer to the microphone and started recording.

- "Seeing zat our interrogations vere not going on satisfyingly enough, vhich vas due to fraulein Schwab's lack ov trust tovard ze Armee, ich decided to take her to space fur a short run to Gamma und back, so maybe seeing ze pilots ov Volksrevolution in aktion, und flying vith zem in same ving vould help us by increasing her trust tovard us. Even zough not az vell az it kould go, but ich believe ze small raid vas fruitful enough - Bekause on ze vay back she didn't refuse or resist in any vay on returning to Freital... Even if she did, vouldn't have helped her much, az ve had already installed a Remote-Kontrolled Autopilot protocol on her ship console vhich could simply take complete kontrol in case she decided to do anything... stupid. Ich have attached a full kopy ov Comm Log to zis update, und vill have another talk vith Sophie Schwab in upcoming days. Leutnant Dresner Out!"

Then after a few seconds, as the attachment upload was complete, he encrypted the file and uploaded it to RHA CommSys.

[Jansen]

[color=#FFFFFF]She She sat in her cell, still angry that she didnt take the chance to run away, to run into her freedom. She had the chance, she was flying her ship. But she didnt use it. Now she was back in the cell, it would be impossible to get out of it alone. Even if she would be able to escape, the guards would have shot her down, before she would have had been able to get to a ship. She was in her cell, yet again. [color=#FF99FF] "The gods dont seem to hear my prayers here, or they are busy..." She closed her eyes, laying down on the uncomfortable bed.
