Freedom

Feeling rather confident after your lessons with Nadine you decide to attempt removing the spell keeping Dawn tied to this facility. You would love to be able to take her with you to the party tonight as her first experience in the world outside this facility.

"Dawn" you call out to get her attention. She fades into view directly in front of you with a smile looking expectantly at you.

"I wanted to try seeing if I could remove the spell keeping you from leaving the facility" you tell her. Her smile immediately fades and a look of worry replaces it.

"Will that put you at risk" she asks concerned. You can't help but smile since the first thing she thought of was your safety.

"Um...I'll answer that" Nadine steps forward "Worst case is he passes out from using too much magic and the spell remains in place. That said, I will be monitoring him and helping offset the magic load as best I can, and if it gets to be too much he will stop trying and the spell will remain in place. This is a bit sudden" Nadine frowns at you "but at the very least it will give us a good idea about how realistic it will be to remove the spell" she finishes.

"A-alright, what do I need to do" Dawn asks clearly still a little uncertain.

"Nothing really. Nadine and I will get comfortable in your control room and give it a shot" you reply attempting to place your hand on her shoulder. However your hand passes through her making you slightly stumble.

"Sorry...I'm in the process of tending the garden" she giggles shyly.

You and Nadine gather some pillows and blankets to set up what you'd describe as a nest. Feeling both excited and scared you get comfortable, nod to Nadine you are ready, and reach out to Dawn's true form. The initial feeling is slightly startling. It is like a combination of an inanimate object like a rock, while also feeling Dawn's very alive presence. Pushing that aside you examine the spells you can see. In an initial burst of hope you examine one that has only a single tendril keeping it in place, but you quickly realize it is the spell that cuts Dawn off when she takes control of the robot T-rex. You suspect that one was intentionally created to be easy to remove. Possibly to be after it was established that Dawn was not a threat, or something of that nature.

Whatever the reason is you get to work removing the spell. With just one tendril you don't bother creating a duplicate of the spell to replace it, and instead just focus on pushing the tendril back into the spell. It seems easier this time you notice. Soon the tendril is gone and you push the spell away from Dawn. It flutters away and disappears like a butterfly caught in a gust of wind. You open your eyes and see Dawn standing in front of you examining her arms curiously.

"Something has changed hasn't it" she asks not taking her eyes off of herself "something is different" she adds.

"Yes" you smile "the first spell I found was the one that cut you off from the facility when you take control of the T-Rex. It was barely attached to you so I suspect it was intended to be easy to remove" you explain. Dawn looks curiously at you and then looks out toward the T-Rex.

"Give it a try. You don't have to go outside if you don't want to. In fact I wouldn't recommend it as now I suspect the spell keeping you in the facility will take effect regardless of if you are in the T-Rex body" you tell her. You stand up with Nadine in tow and go check out the T-Rex. You can see the eyes glowing dark blue already, and then the glowing eyes fade back to nothing.

"It works" Dawn excitedly stated appearing behind you giving you and Nadine a startled jump. "Sorry...I didn't mean to that time, but it works. I have access to everything. It isn't so foreign and scary of a feeling now" she happily says jumping up and down a little. You can't help but watch her nice tits bouncing as she does so. You notice Nadine's eyes following the same motions, so you give her a nudge with your elbow.

"Wha...uh...that's great Dawn. Already some progress" Nadine says proudly.

"Alright, let's get back at it" you say motioning your head back to the control room.

You settle back into the nest and waste no time reaching out again. There are more spells that Dawn is constructed from then you suspected, and finding the spell you just removed seems to have been just dumb luck you quickly realize. You focus a little more on her construction. Every aspect of her is a beautiful symphony of technology and magic. You honestly find the experience peaceful and relaxing. Like watching and listening to Bob Ross paint a mountain scene. This was clearly the work of a very intelligent person, or more likely people. However, focusing on your goal, you move from spell to spell examining them.

You don't know how much time passes, but finally you locate the spell you are looking for. You had actually ignored it several times specifically because it was only attached by four tendrils. That seemed a bit suspicious to you, but feeling excited and determined you started the process of copying the spell. In that exact moment you suddenly felt yourself being pulled into the spell. You abruptly tried to stop what you were doing and retreat, but the pull didn't stop. In fact it only grew more powerful. You resisted as much as you could, and you even felt Nadine struggling to hold you back, but the force exponentially grew until you felt yourself sucked in entirely. Everything disappeared and went black. No...black wasn't the way to describe it. It wasn't the absence of light, it was more like the absence of everything, and all you could do was float in the nothingness. Just as suddenly you found yourself surrounded by nothing but white, and you felt your feet firmly planted on solid ground even though you couldn't actually determine where the ground was.

Looking around to see where you were you saw Dawn. Standing upright, but entirely devoid of emotion or even looking like she was aware of anything. Like a robot that had been turned off.

"Excuse me" you heard a voice behind you grab your attention. You whipped around and saw a young man wave at you. The man couldn't have been older than eighteen. He wore a white suit and shoes, and had black skin making his head and hands appear to almost be floating unconnected to a body. On his face were round glasses, and his black hair was short and messy. His gentle smile calmed you somehow, but only a little. Your eyes darted from him to Dawn and back again. You desperately wanted to run to her side and see if she was ok, but the moment you tried to take a step you realized you didn't move forward at all.

"You want to see if she is ok don't you" he smiled "that is good, but unfortunately I can not allow that. Not yet at least. I promise you though she is perfectly fine" he said walking towards you.

"Where am I? What is happening" you blurted out.

"Ah...yes, introductions first and then I will explain the situation" the man stated.
