Will had arrived late due to having to bring food supplies. He carefully brought all the supplies to the courthouse, and walked in.

“Good Morning Torch. I’m sure you have questions, but first, let’s get to the room.”

Slightly struggling under the wait of the supplies, will made it down the stairs with Torch following close behind. He unlocked the padlock and walked into the regular document storage room. Then, he turned the statue, and entered the real room as the fake wall opened. Torch quickly followed.

The room was huge, and seemed to have been constructed in a lopsided sphere shape to Torch based on the curve of the walls. The walls had a peculiar repetitive square pattern going in all directions, and as for the floor itself, it was clear like glass yet extremely thick. Nonetheless, it was somewhat unnerving to be able to see the great distance below him. Torch pushed the thought aside and began to ask his questions.

“What is the project you are working on?”

“Look in the middle.”
In the centre of the circular room was a small chair, a pedestal, and a strange helmet like contraption hooked up to the pedestal.
“That, is the project.”

“A new type of helmet? I’m not disappointed, but don’t you think that it’s a little bit paranoid to be hiring guards to hide a helmet?”

Dm him, and he’ll try to find a role to fit you into the plot

“Well that’s the thing. It’s not actually a helmet. What it actually is is far more of a weapon than a defensive device. That, along with this room, is a brainwave accelerator. It decreases the wavelengths of brainwaves, which allows them to travel further. What that means, is this machine expands anyone’s ability to read and control minds. Even someone who doesn’t have enough natural ability to do so would be able to with this technology.”

“That is why I need it guarded. If Slash or someone more powerful than him even were to learn if it’s existence… I’m not sure what they would do with it.”

“I don’t think this is a good idea, Will. What if, after you and I are gone, we are replaced by someone who’s… less responsible?”
Avatar of APersonWhoYoyos
Will knew the idea must be concerning to think about. He himself hated having to test it. But he was the only one who could without being tempted to use it frivolously. He had no desire to live a powerful or extremely successful life. His goal was to live peacefully and quietly (and hopefully stay out of unnecessary conflict)

“That’s why I have sent orders to the builders. They don’t understand perfectly how it’s built. When I’m gone, if there is no one I have approved by then to be the next guardian, this will all be destroyed completely.”

“I have been testing it on animals located at a farm nearly at the polar opposite on the world of this location. The scientist who first discovered the technology- he is reporting the results as he studies them. Once we get a consistent set, then I can stop testing (in his words anyway)

“I need it destroyed now. We are soldiers, not war criminals. This goes against the Geneva Convention.”

Will sighed. "I knew you'd say that, but unfortunately it's not up to me or you. The scientist has a patent and owns the room legally, so we can't without exposing the technology to the world or being sentenced. Plus I committed to finish helping him, even if I don't like it."

The government doesn't know what it is, just that he owns it.

“Then I will pay the scientist a visit.” Torch knew exactly what he had to do, and he was happy to be back doing what he was doing before he left
