"This facility brings smiles to those fortunate enough to live without poverty." Rainbow Dash replied, "You don't seem scared of this place. Tell me, do you not fear death? By the blood on you I'd say it's not the death of others." she eyed the red stains now. Her pupils grew large and her wings stedily decreased their speed.
The worker pony returned to the walkway looking over one side, not seeing what he was looking for. Then he turned to the other, "Rainbow Dash, you should keep him waiting."
This snapped Rainbow Dash out of her little transe, "I'll be back for you in a little while." she flew up to the worker, "Got a little side tracked."
"Yes well, you should get going. You know him as well as I do, he doesn't like it when ponies are late." he looked up at the green pony who was still dangling.
"Oh, could you get him back in home cell while Steel fixes the arm?" Rainbow Dash walked past him to go back through the door she had come in from. Once inside she mad a left turn, opening the door there. Proceeding through a white hallway she came to a more refined room with a fine wood floor covered with a large rug. A picture of a rainbow hung over the wall to her left, but the other wall was bare. Across from the hallway was a desk filled with papers and a set of buttons. A male Pegasus sat behind the desk as a unicorn wrote what her spoke.
"Signed, The Good Doctor." the colt looked up from the paper the unicorn had written on. He was drake brown with a deep red mane, in a black tux. "Oh, Rainbow Dash. I see you've made it, finally. Come in, sit before me."
Rainbow Dash walked closer to the desk, "Are you going to tell me what this is about?"
"In time, just sit." he waited for her to take her place. When she sat, he leaned over the desk, "What were you doing out there that made me wait?"
"I was questioning one of the priso"
"Lets not call them that, they are our guests in this fine factory." he cut in.
"Gulaven,"
"Its Doctor Gulaven to you my dear."
"Whatever, i was questioning one of the "guests" because of his recent outburst. You know he killed two of our workers?" Rainbow Dash paused, "Wait, why did you call me here?"
"To see how you've been doing. We want to test a new machine, the scientists tell me it can extract only the color of our guests without killing them."
"Then what would be the use of that? We can't just let them go, they will have all of this shut down. Who, then, will make the Rainbows."
"Ahh, smart girl you are. You see, it only take most of their color, so they can grow it back." He pointed to the bare wall as part of it slid away to show an almost colorless pony, skinny and shaking as it was held by another mechanical arm.
"You said test, but if you've already tested it on this one..."
"Oh no, this is one that we tried on the original, but it cannot be programmed correctly to stop." the Doctor stepped out from around his desk over to the held pony, "We do not need this to happen with the new one."
"What does this have to do with me?" Rainbow Dash asked as she stepped up beside him.
"I need you to take a few of our guest to the fifth floor, west wing to run a few more tests before we replace the old one." he turned away, "But... By the scientists, the machine isn't fully operational, it could be a week before it can move."
"Why should we make a new one if this one still works, I mean it is keeping up with all the extractions, plus we never run out of red." Rainbow Dash added.
