JP - Tooth Fairy
Riley nodded before punching himself in the face hard enough to spit out a tooth "hold on to this then" he said placing it in Cook's hand upon closer inspection the tooth was a fake and had a flashing red light.
Cook blinked for a long time and jumped when they heard Anastasia scream from down the hall. “Oh, God…” He looked horrified as he pocketed the freaky flashing tooth.
Riley jumped to his feet ignoring the pains he tried to make his way to the door to find Anastasia.
“Wait!” Cook grabbed Riley’s arm. “If you go out there you’ll be swarmed by Thrane’s goons and in your state you’ll get killed!”
"Then get this damn collar off me I'm not letting her stay with Canestone" Riley growled in an almost feral tone his eyes bloodshot.
“I don’t have the fucking key! Thrane doesn’t trust us with them anymore.” Cook replied, the look in his eyes telling Riley that he wanted to get the collar off badly, but he couldn’t without the right key.
"Then do you know how to restart a heart?" Riley asked eyeing a lamp in the room.
“What?” Cook blinked. “Why?” He looked at the lamp. “What are you planning?!”
Riley grabbed Cook and looked into his eyes "Susi, Tzeitel, N1kk1, Megan, and now Anastasia. Those are all the people I've care about that have suffered at the hands of that bastard and I'm not about to let them suffer one more second" growled "these collars can be overloaded if exposed to enough electricity. So here's what's going to happen I'm going to electrocute myself and you are going to bring me back and then I'm going to beat the ever living shit out of Canestone and grab Anastasia you'll have about 5 minutes to get anybody you care about to the medical bay and I am taking us to a place to Thrane can't follow understood?"
“O-okay…” Cook said, his mind instantly going to both Min and Elizabeth.
Riley grab the lamp before ripping the power cord off and splitting it into two pieces. Taking a deep breath you thought about River and Amber "I promise I'll come back" he whispered before placing the live wire to the collar. Gritting his teeth He began to foam at the mouth before he collapsed and the collar fell off.
After the initial shock of seeing a man basically electrocute himself, Cook quickly got to work at reviving Riley. “WAKE UP, DAMN IT!” He yelled in desperation as he worked.
Riley took in a deep breath as jumped up and looked at his surroundings before spotting cook “five minutes and make sure you have morning after pills” he told him before bursting with speed out of the door towards Canestone.
Cook blinked and bolted out to get Min and Elizabeth.

Cook rushed in and went straight to Elizabeth and Min. “We’re leaving. Now.”
Min’s heart jumped in her chest. She looked at Elizabeth who did not seem to think she would be able to leave for days. “I’m not sure if I can walk.”
“You don’t need to, but this is a chance we won’t get again.” Cook said and, with Elizabeth’s help, they started to disconnect a lot of the equipment and pulled the bed from the wall. “I’ll carry you if I must, but we have to get out of here. Now.”
“Okay.” Min wanted to get out of here. She did not want to be anywhere near that monster or that Thrane.
