The Guard Digs in his pocket and pulls out a small metal loop with 2 dangling keys and holds them out for FMJ, When all of sudden there is a loud crash coming from within the interrogation room. followed by some scuffling on the floor. The Guard almost mechanically reacts, dropping the keys to the floor and turning to face the door as he pulls his pistol from his side. (it appears to be some kinda future pistol most likely designed by Pox) The guards alertness is met but the door splitting in the center, and then coming off of its top hinge, causing it to shift awkwardly and not fit the door frame anymore. from the now hole in the door you can see the girl standing, behind her the table has been flipped and her handcuffs chain snapped in half lay next to it. She stand panting very suspiciously , balling her fists which are now adorned with broken handcuffs. Her hair is now wet with sweat draped out of her face. her eyes look intense, and the wrinkles below her eyes stand out more. She gruntingly says. "Damn it, give me my Phone call!!!!"

"Okay, okay!" Raptor Star gulps, and hoping to defuse the situation, reaches into nothingness again and pulls out a RaptorPhone* and offers it to the scary-strong person.
*Coincidentally, the RaptorPhone is disguised to look exactly like a cheap pre-paid cell phone sold at a local pharmacy.

FMJ holds up his hand, warning the guard off. In a calm voice, he says, "You need to calm down now, Miss. We're trying to help here, but making a ruckus is not going to do you any good right now."
He gently places a hand on Raptor Star's shoulder, ready to push her out of the way if the young woman attacks. He doesn't let any stress show on his voice as he continues. "If you want to call a friend or family, you're free to do so. But seeing as someone very powerful called Red Dragon tried to kidnap you and obviously didn't care who he hurt in the process, it might not be a good idea to tell them where you are just yet."
He studies her eyes as he speaks to see if there's any reaction to him saying the supervillain's name.

Panting like a dog, her breathing begins to slowly come down to normal she looks to FMJ and says " I don't know that guy, or what he wanted with me." She then turns to Raptor and holds out her Hand in expectation of Raptors Phone. FMJ: Focusing on her eyes, FMJ finally notices it , its a realization that hits him suddenly and causes all of his thoughts to flood into his mind at once, giving him a momentary Vertigo episode from the shock of adrenaline. The wrinkles underneath her eyes are NOT WRINKLES, they are closed eyelids. !!! SHE IS A GORUSHE !!! ** Raptor you do not notice this, and so ill say you have to wait to respond until FMJ does (or doesn't do) something first. **

Raptor Star passes the poor, confused young lady her phone, innocently believing that the young lady is quite innocent. Who would be looking their best after the kind of treatment Pie-zulu gives? "Here ya go. And FMJ has good advice, too."

** Okay, I'll repeat my earlier comment. Please do not post our character's reactions or thoughts. That's for us to do. It's all right to describe the effect that a situation can produce (e.g., "The revelation would cause a man to suffer vertigo from the shock") but don't direct what our characters do or think. **
** I'm working on the assumption that the alien invaders were finally routed and driven away, i.e., there was no peaceful surrender, so that the Gorush are still considered a threat. If that's wrong, please correct me so that I know what the general reaction to them would be. **
FMJ's hand shoots out to intercept Raptor's offered phone. In a voice still calm but now neutral he says, "I know what you are, Miss. What happens next depends on you. No more games. Who are you, why are you here and why did Red Dragon want you?"

** Yes the Gorushe left when Paragon killed their King, and died in the battle. i planned putting this in the database but forgot to being so busy. ** She Falls to her knees and holds up her hands. she begins sobbing as she see's the twisted metal cuffs dangling from her wrist, with shards of metal laying on the floor. "Oh my GOD! what did I do? How did I do that? is this why that guy was after me? Wha..wha..what am I? " she falls the remainder of the way to the floor sobbing laying prone with her hands outstretched & palms up. " I don't know who red Dragon is, or what he wanted. I Don't know why i was able to do that to the table, or how i did it! Most importantly I don't know what you think i am, but My name is Candy Gibson. I am a Waitress at Joe's Burgers. And i Have NEVER done this before, it MUST be something that red suited freak job did to me in the parking lot!"

** How truthful does she sound? I'd ask for a Perception roll, but I'm still not sure how we're handling that in this form. **

** you feel she is being sincere, But you have never known a Gorushe to be anything other than deceptive killers**

** Sorry for the delays in responding; I'm getting ready for Gen Con and it's taking up a bit of my time. Speaking of which, I may be less available next week. :-) **
FMJ is torn between the instinctive desire to help the young girl and the realization of what she is. Somewhat stiffly, he tires to assure her, "I need you to calm down now, Miss. I'm going to make arrangements to find somewhere more comfortable for us to talk. In the meantime, you need to wait here and relax until we're back."
He moves outside to confer with the guard. "Stay here and make sure she doesn't come out or no one else comes in, understand?"
He signals his teammate over and speaks even more softly. "Raptor, we need to talk. Privately. Do you know a place we can... pop over for a quick conference?"

The dino-gal's shoulders slump a little. "Just line of sight," she replies as quietly as she can. "It'd take a few steps to get privacy."
**At this point, I do not think Raptor Star has enough familiarity with the building to be able to jump blindly. And anyone looking can see what's on the other side of the gates she makes.**

** Didn't you say your pocket dimension is size of a room? or are you not allowed to go into it? , if the rulebook is not clear on this ill make GM call as say it can support 1 person for a half hour before they reappear where they entered the dimension, or a group of 4 and they reappear 15 minutes instead! there is 3 other interrogation rooms that are accessible, 2 of which have camera and one has 1 way mirror into a observation booth (currently empty) Cameras can be damaged to gain privacy but this is against the employee handbook **

**For Raptor Star at least, I envision the pocket dimension as Not Being Safe For Occupation. One can keep things like food in there, but time passes for items in her storage-space, so milk and sandwiches go bad in the usual amount of time, though not due to bacteria. At least anything taken out is sterilized, though not necessarily clean (if it was grimy, it is now sterile grime).**
Proposed action (let me know if this wouldn't work?):
Raptor Star thinks for a moment, then says, "Follow me?" With that, she proceeds to step through a series of gates, making sure Full Metal Jacket is behind her before continuing. A glance in each of several doors nearby until she sees one with a small window, letting her (and her friend) bypass the door into the observation room for an empty cell. Raptor Star checks the equipment, making sure anything an average person would recognize as recording gear is turned off. "What's going on? What's wrong, other than the aptly-named Demon Force locking up civilians?"

FMJ follows Raptor, not saying a word.
Once there's enough assurance of privacy, he gets right to the point.
"I'm pretty sure Ms. Gibson is a Gorush. But she's acting like she's oblivious to the fact. I'm not sure of the score. Is she that good an actress? Is she a sleeper agent? A refugee or defector?"
He grimaces. "I want to find out the truth, especially in how this relates to Red Dragon, but I'm afraid as soon as I let the cat out of the bag, Glow-Stick-Up-His-Ass will show up and use her as his next biology experiment, regardless of whether she deserves it or not. Never mind the fact they'll probably know the truth the moment they do a medical test.
"This may end up as a total cluster f**k, and I thought it fair to let you know in case you want to stay out of it."
