'Is she trying to kill me?' Jett gritted his teeth inwardly as he sat still. 'If it were anyone else, this would've been deadly. You don't just shove Lumix into someone's body unless you want them to burn alive from the inside out.'
His mind raced, but his face remained carefully composed. 'And what if I screamed? Did she soundproof the room or is she just hoping I won't?'
Jett chuckled silently. 'Well, I guess I have to play my part too.'
He started twitching slightly, small, believable jerks running down his arms and shoulders. His body jerked every now and then, accompanied by low, muffled grunts of pain. He even clenched his fists, letting his breathing run rampant.
'Good,' Gwen thought, her forehead damp with sweat as she smiled nervously. 'He's reacting exactly like I knew he would…'
But even as she reassured herself, she could feel her energy draining faster than she expected. 'The reaction is positive… but why am I running out of Lumix this quickly?'
