This would be a scary situation to be in, and I wouldn't be at all surprised if it hurt Alexandra's opinion of Omegas. Maybe even instilled some apprehension.

I'll go ahead and answer gadget's question just to put it out there and make it clear:

Kayla does not read the mind of every single person processed. Not even most or even half of them, not by a longshot. The reason she does so in Consequences is due to the personal connection with Abby, that's it. Lexi, sadly, does not have that benefit.

I think someone set Alexandra up but for what reason I have no clue.

Also I wonder if the flame inside Bridget is conflicting with the doubt she has regarding the culpability of her friend. 

This is going to be painful for everyone involved. I feel sorry for how hard it's going to hit Bridget once the truth comes out.

this will be interesting, though I wonder if I have the stomach for it enough to see it through. It's a lot easier to get through Ackbar's moments knowing the person was guilty but an innocent woman... Well in either case I'm here for the short term!

Good premise. It shows a side of Ackbar's world that needs to be explored. Let's see what you do with it.

This will hurt, from start to finish and even more when Bridget learns she subjected an innocent person to torture.

Yes, I have been waiting for a story like this for a while. And if what the other reviewers are saying, then you may be the perfect person to write this. I love Akbar's setting, and I like the possibilities. However, there has always been a major question on my mind that has never been answered, what happens if they get something wrong?

There are soooo many ways this can go and so many things I'm interested in seeing. First and foremost, I can't wait to see if she is innocent. Of course I am hoping that she is innocent and did nothing wrong, as that would show just what happens when they get it wrong and what Omegas do to fix such mistakes. Another interesting addition is that it's her friend punishing her. I hope to see both POVs, and judging by what she said earlier it seems like she has a great record. I'd like to see her friend's thoughts on the whole ordeal. You have my attention with an excellent premise and a great opening. I know you won't disappoint, so no pressure. ^_^

It seems there's no due process, nor a chance for her to defend herself.  If an officer of the law came up to me like that, I'd be wondering WHAT I did too, since it seems like you need a law degree to live in today's world.  I always thought Omegas had some superhuman abilities besides their size.  You would think they would be able to avoid mistakes like this.  Unless the mistake is discovered, Alexandra is going to get the FULL treatment like Marion in the Consequences story, or worse.  She'll profess her innocence until she's broken, then she'd say anything to get the suffering to stop.  THAT'S probably when they'll discover their mistake.  I wonder what would happen then?  Can you sue an Omega?  This is well written, but like all your stories I'll proceed cautiously and hope things won't get as bad as I've said.

Very well written and satisfying as usual as expected from you. Please continue!
