The Head Doctor's Seats

"Good evening, patients."

The Head Doctor's voice was a little bit different than it had been last time. Though it was still loud, and slow, and deliberate, it didn't seem to have as much conniving enthusiasm dripping from it, and his words might not have been so easy to hear if it hadn't been for whatever system that allowed his voice to be projected from the seats at the south-center of the arena. The patients quickly realized this and as they turned their eyes toward that location, the Head Doctor stepped out of the shadows and into the strange sunlight.

He looked good enough physically. Maybe the circles under his eyes were a little darker than last time, but it wasn't as if his audience would know it; in fact, those who hadn't been at the Institute long might have not recognized his face at all.

He smiled slightly, as if he was trying to look sinister and only getting about three quarters of the way there. However, he did give it his all when he raised his arm to gesture at the area and said in a jovial, booming voice:

"Welcome to the Coliseum!"
