тАЬWhat do you want? I need to know your demands and to hear my
people state that they're alive and unharmed. If you don't do these things,
then we have no room for discussion,тАЭ Priscilla's voice asked over the radio.
тАЬWhat do you mean we're in...тАЭ
тАЬCome in. What were you saying? Who are you talking to?тАЭ Priscilla
asked.
тАЬWhat do you mean we're in space? Prisons don't fly, let alone jump up
into space. Anyone know what the fuck this gal's been into? Someone get
this taken care of so I can get back on this radio with the warden.тАЭ
тАЬMidge, she's telling the truth! I saw it, too! Bobbi is floating out in
space dead at this moment. She tried stepping out of the fog and it killed
her. She's all boiled and ruptured. It's really sickening to see anyone look
like her.тАЭ
тАЬYou're trying to stop us from taking over this prison. Now shut up and
get away from me so I can negotiate with the warden! Go help burn the
library!тАЭ Midge screamed.
тАЬMidge, I swear we're not! On my mother's grave! I swear it!тАЭ
тАЬYou don't even know who your mother was, let alone if she's dead! Get
out of my hair before you force me to deal with you, Andrea.тАЭ
тАЬOkay, don't believe me. One thing's certain, we're not going to get
anything we want once Honor finds out the situation.тАЭ
тАЬGet her out of here! Put her in a cell! And get me some more candles!
You'd think this prison would have an emergency backup generator!тАЭ Midge
shouted.

Priscilla asked, тАЬWho am I talking to? Who's on the other end of this
radio? What are your demands?тАЭ
Sheila lit a candle to illuminate the room. As she did, she noticed the
fog swirling around their feet and getting higher.

In the industrial-sized laundry room, fog swirled into the darkened
room. Inside, it mixed with the bleach still present in wet loads fresh from
the washers waiting to be tossed into the dryers. The synthetic clothing
disappeared from the piles of wet laundry without anyone noticing. Then
the washers popped open when the seals disappeared into vapor. Water
flew out in a rush, mixing more chlorine from the bleach water into the fog,
enhancing the effect. Plastic bottles of bleach soon dissolved into vapors,
further strengthening the overall effect. As the fog crept into other places
adjacent to the laundry room, most plastics and synthetics dissolved into
vapors.
The inmates inside the laundry room stumbled around into each other in
the dark trying to find their way amid the scattered laundry carts and other
equipment. The first few who realized they were naked when their synthetic
clothes dissolved thought that someone else was responsible, though they
couldn't understand how it had been done. They kept their mouths shut
