Matthews looked up to the three further through swollen eyes. Janet smirked at Charon.
"On you go" Desmond called leaning against the wall.
"Why did you want Alex ?" Janet spoke, she was oddly calm but her hands shook. Charon held it and squeezed.
"Did you know he is the cure to radiation ? That his existence gives proof to a near immortal life ? A disease free one at that ?"
"Explain."
Matthews grunted and shuffled in his bindings.
"His 'ghoul' heritage means he will outlive us a....well me in this room."
"What do you mean just you ?"
"The virus has affected you, has it not ?" He talked at Janet as if she was of inferior intelligence and she glowered at him. "Like a supermutant you will enhance over time?"
"In size ?!" Janet's voice rose an octave.
"No it didn't change your physical features upon contact so no."
"Why are you telling us this freely ?" she asked.
"I am assuming that I am to be killed no matter what. I thought it more appropriate for my knowledge to not die with me."
"True." Charon spoke with a menacing look.
"What else do you know about Alex ?" Janet asked.
"That if a super mutant and a ghoul could have a baby and it came in human form it would be him. He was so valuable for research, we had to have him!" Matthews face turned red with passion.
"He's just a baby." Janet spoke softly.
"Irrelevant."
The room echoed with a thud as Charon punched Matthews across the face. Matthews spat blood on the ground.
"I can see subject 10 hasn't lost his bite." Matthews spat once more. Charon simply returned to the wall folding his arms.
"You honestly think you could take his baby and he wouldn't come for it ?"
"We knew it was an eventuality. The alpha contact was to control him, it controlled them all. But his emotions make him weak and broken."
"They made him stronger." Desmond pointed out.
"Argyle died trying to save a civilisation from slavers he did it with compassion.... It seems the institutes methods weren't as full proof as you read them to be." Charon growled. He knew the hit to his ego would be worse than any punch.
"Who else knows about Alex ?" Desmond added.
"The doctor who's computer we obtained information."
"Barrows." Janet noted "good. Anyway I think we've offered you the luxury of life for far too long now. Don't you Charon ?"

"Indeed."
"I'll be outside, you coming Desmond ?"
"Involuntarily " he replied looking back.
