<strong>Prisoner Kate Bartlett<br/>Cellblock CD017</strong><br/><br/>Kate stared at Amelia. At the cold smile. At the lack of outward emotion in her words and in her expression.  She thought back to the earlier conversation they had had about how they each came to be in this place.<br/><br/>"I guess that would depend on what you considered your mission to be." She paused for a moment, not in the expectation of an answer, but rather to make sure she chose her words carefully. If the mission was indeed what Kate thought it was, she did not want to find herself as an objective to be overcome. But she thought that maybe she knew enough about her new room-mate to realize that any kind of obfuscation or attempted deceit in her answer was not going to work. Kate took a deep breath and hoped that she wasn't about to make a new enemy. There were enough of them in this place; she didn't need to be sharing a cell with one more.<br/><br/>"Im not a killer Amelia. At least not yet. And Im not looking to be one. If this place turns me into that, then I am no different to the people who put me here and the people I would now seek to condemn. You and I are products of a different set of experiences - not better or worse - just different and so... I guess I walk a different road to you. Maybe I would get some momentary pleasure from seeing Popov or Dodd... particularly Dodd... get some just desserts... but it would indeed be momentary. And with Popov... I don't know yet... is it right to judge a man on so little. They are after all products of their own experiences as well and if I condemned them so quickly, wouldn't I have to do the same to you?"<br/><br/>The hint of a smile began to emerge across her face. "Of course, if we keep having days like today, those new experiences might change my current state of mind." Then her face became serious again.<br/><br/>"I will say this though... I wont betray your trust. I might try and persuade you as to an alternative mission, but I wont betray you. As they seem to want to keep us within these four walls, I see no reason as to why our conversations should not remain equally confined."
