"Ahhh shit!" I yell as I fell out of the portal and landed on the ground. I get up while carefully looking around. I see that I landed in an alley. I look behind me and the portal is not closing. I see something poking out of the portal and I immediately knew what it was. I try to close the portal with everything I have, but nothing works. I slowly back away from the portal before deciding to run out of the alley and turn to the left.

I look behind me while running and I don't see anything following me. As I look forward, I run into someone and both of us fall to the ground. The person's friends look at both of us and they help her up. I groan as I get up. "I'm so sorry, I was not paying attention to where I was going and I'm in a hurry." I quickly say. I feel a stinging sensation on my left cheek and my left hand. I look at my hand and I see that it has a scrape.

I look back up and the group of people were either looking at my hand or looking at my face. "Are you okay? You look like you're exhausted." One of them asks me. "Yes. I'm-" "There she is! Get over here 5641!" I jerk up as I hear that voice. I look behind me and I see soldiers with guns running toward me. I rush past the people while looking forward. I didn't know anything about this place. I find a random person. "What is this place?" I ask.

"This is Gardenia." the man answers. I remember something, I was here before, but where? "Thank you." I tell the man. He walks past me and carries on with his day. I continue running until I found a house that looks familiar. I recognize it as a house I used to live in when I needed a break from everything that was going on in my life. I take out the house key and I unlock the door. I walk inside and close the door.

I remember that I put cameras in every room. I walk upstairs to the room that I slept in and I turn on the computer. As soon as it loads, I immediately go to the camera view and check all of the cameras. I even notice I put some cameras outside. I double check everything to make sure nobody is in the house or outside the house. Nobody was inside or out so I rest for a few minutes.

After a few minutes, I decide to leave the house, but I know I have to be cautious. I open the door and look around before leaving and locking the door. I make sure I have everything I need before going on a walk. As the wind starts to blow, I feel a stinging sensation on my hand and cheek. I remember that I was supposed to take care of my injuries. I turn around to go back to my house, only to see soldiers coming this way.

I turn back around and start to walk quickly. I keep going until I reach a place called the Frutti Music Bar. I know that the soldiers shouldn't be able to find me with this many people here. There was a band playing and I get in the middle of everybody so that I would be hard to find. I didn't want to look like an outcast and I start to cheer along with the audience. I look around and see that soldiers are looking kind of thirsty.

They sit down at a table and a female walks over to them to take their order. I quickly leave the place unnoticed. I start to continue my walk. "Hey you!" I turn around to see who was yelling at me. I see the soldiers, but one of them is missing. I back away until I bump into something. Before I could turn around, a person grabs me and I am unable to move. The person ties my hands behind my back and throws me into the back of a van.

I see the soldiers also get in the van. "You better get comfortable back there because this is going to be a bumpy ride." the driver says to me. I was the only person in the back. The only thing I could think about was what would happen once we get to the foundation. If Dr. Klein is still working there, then I'll be fine. Thinking about Dr. Klein the entire trip to the foundation made me forget the fact that I was in a van.

After what felt like hours of potholes and traffic problems, we finally arrived at the foundation. The soldiers take me out of the van and we go into the foundation. "Take her to her containment cell." the O5 council member instructed. The soldiers did as they were told and took me to my cell. I walk in and they untie my hands. "Dr. Klein will see you shortly." the soldier told me. They leave me alone and lock my cell.

I lay in the bed and notice something feels weird. I get up and move the blanket around until I find a notebook and some pencils. I look in the notebook and remember that I drew in the notebook when I was bored, which was all the time. I flip to a blank page and start drawing. After a few minutes of drawing, my cell door opens and I look up from the notebook. A soldier walks in as I get up. "Dr. Klein has asked me to escort you."

I walk with the soldier to an experiment room. Dr. Klein was working on something, but turned to see us walk in. Dr. Klein smiles when he sees me. "You can return to your post now." Dr. Klein told the soldier. The soldier leaves the room and Dr. Klein looks at me. "I have been notified of your escape earlier, and I will not let you escape this time." I groan in my head as he continues to talk.

"But I have been talking with the staff, and we decided that you won't be in containment anymore." Dr. Klein says while walking over to a table. I watch him as he walks. Dr. Klein picks up a metal collar and walks back over to me. "You will need to wear this so we can track you. We have also programed the foundation's number into your phone." He said while handing me my phone. I stay quiet.

"You will be able to go back to Gardenia. But the foundation has a job for you." I became interested as he finished that last part. "Your job is to report any strange occurrences or anomalies." Dr. Klein puts the collar on me. "Don't worry, it won't shock you. I promise." I look around for a clock and see that it's 9 at night. "I bet you want to go back to Gardenia now don't you?" Dr. Klein asked as he noticed I was looking at the clock.

"Yeah. I bumped into someone on accident earlier and I want to make it up to them. Even if it means I have to pay for their meal at a restaurant." I answer. "Well, that will have to wait until tomorrow because by the time you get there, it will already be morning." Klein said. "Wait, I'm going now?" I ask. "Yes you are. I'm going to drive you." Klein answers. We leave the room and walk outside to his car.

"I'm a night doctor, so I sleep in the day unless I need to come to the foundation for urgent business." Klein said as we got in his car. He starts the car and drives a few minutes later. I feel myself start to doze off. After 10 minutes, I was out cold.
