(Bella's P.O.V.)
Ever since we were born, we were told that Lying is bad, That nothing good comes from lying.
'Honesty is the best policy.'
'Honesty is the first chapter of the book of wisdom.'
' I chopped down the cherry tree'
Right.
I'm Isabella Swan, Test body number 11094Y85 And I'm a rent out test body in an undercover science company, owned by NASA.
Basically, My body is rented out to a number of scientists and doctors across the world to run tests and do experiments, using my body as a giant guinea pig.
But, some people ask how I survive all these unsteady experiments and tests that could kill me.
Well all the other test bodies including mine are charged by batteries.
No, I'm not a robot, I just had my blood pumped out and replaced with an artificial substitute mixed with plutonium. When we are hooked up to these machines, the plutonium in our systems heat up and give us kinda like an impenetrable immune system.
There are over a million test bodies that are held here.
It's really not a bad job, they feed you, treat you like a real person, and you get paid a shit load every month.
The only bad part is, if there's something wrong with you when you come back, like your some mutant creature, you either have to stay with the family, or be slaughtered.
Your choice.
No pressure or anything.
"Test Body number 11094Y85, you are wanted in the main office" The speaker phone said.
Great.
That can either mean im getting killed or someone needs my body.
"Well. Carry on" Rob said.
Rob is test body number 14332W6P, A.K.A. my best friend here.
"Oh shut up. Before I unhook your machine." I siad eyeing the clips hooked to his ears, fingers, and toes.
He started saying something but then the machine beeped, telling him to hold still.
I walked into the main office and saw Mr. Mallory sitting in his desk.
Mr. Mallory was a stout man, with a fedora hat and Italian suit.
"Ahh, hello number 11094Y85, pleasure seeing you here" He said, holding out his hand.
"At ease, Sir" I said , shaking is tubby hand.
He sat back and sighed.
"Well, we have a new assignment for you" he said, folding his hands on his desk.
(Edward's P.O.V.)
"But I need one by Thursday!" Carlisle said, glaring at the tree's across the river.
"Sir, we can try, but there are no promises that I can get you a test body by then. It is Tuesday you know."
"Okay, thank you so much for your help." he said, rubbing his temples.
Carlisle walked in the door "That was Mr. Mallory, you know Edward, from NASA?"
"Yes. Why do you need a test body?" I asked, taking a seat in his office.
"Im working on a new experiment that cannot be tested on an animal. I plan to have the body here by Thursday and start the experiment on Friday." He said, pointing to his calendar spread out on his desk "It will be a three week long wait until I can tell if it's working, and if it is, we will keep it here for seven months to let the experiment continue maturing and stabilizing, then I will show it to the science committee to determine if we have a new species. If my experiment doesn't work, well then we'll just send it back to witch it came from"
"Hm….. Carlisle are you sure about this? You do know that, if by some miraculous coincidence, it works we have to keep it." I said. I didn't think Carlisle new what he was getting himself into. Plus, seven months? Isn't is 5,000$ per month?
"Yes, my son, I'm completely aware of that fact. And if we do just so happen to stumble across success, then Esme and I are willing to take her in." He said.
Just then the telephone rang.
"Hello?" Carlisle said into the receiver. He pressed to speaker button and kept on filling out his calendar
"Mr. Cullen? This is . We have the perfect test body for your specifications. But I'm afraid she's female. Is that alright?"
Carlisle's eyes widened and he thought:
Female?…… I guess…I guess that would be okay…hmm…
"Yes sir, that's perfectly fine Mr. Mallrie. Im sorry for the picky specifications. When can she be here?" He asked into the receiver.
"I can have here there by Thursday night. No earlier. Sorry"
"Hmm….. Okay. Thank you so much. Goodbye now." He said. Hanging up the phone.
"Well son. Let the fun begin."
Good Good…… I really like this one. Even I , The author, can't wait for the next chapter.
