Chapter 1


The girl stumbled out of the lab. She hurt all over. She escaped when the other mutant had killed the security guards, and another disabled the machines.
She tried to help, but one of the others told her to escape, that she still had a life ahead of her to lead. She got scared that the building would explode
or something. When he saw the look on her face, he regarded her that she should leave and that she would be alright. Nothing was holding a time limit on her.
So 3 minutes later she ended up in the reception room. Papers and blood was scatered everywhere. Some other people escaped the area too. She was still hurting,
and felt something in her neck. Someone had attempted to stop her from escaping. A lab tech, most likely. The guards were all whipped out when she was set
free from her pod. She reached the main doors, which were already splintered in half. Those Lab people had implanted some sort of un-natural mutation in everyone.
Some weren't devestatingly painful, but some where cruel. Unimaginable pain was inflicted on some. As for her...she had recieved a chip in her head. They gased
her before they opperated, which was 5 months ago. They had been testing her and controling her with the chip. She suddenly could kill in a death blow. She
had recieved unimaginable strength that she'd never seen before. But she still wished she could get the chip out, because some times they could send her terrifying
messages. But it was all over now, the center and it's workers had been distroyed, and she was free.


As she stumbled into the night air of 1941, her new life washed over her. For the next 480 years, she would be remaining her age level. She would never grow,
never age, never grow. Being 12 forever never crossed her mind, the only things she tought about where how evil the government could be to kidnapp a mutant child
and turn her into a weapon for war. Everyone else around her was being turned into the same thing, but she was the youngest. The chip in her brain would control
her hormones to keep it that way, too. She jogged and jogged until her body fell numb, and she collapsed on the side of a High way. 3 hours later, a Coca Cola
truck pulled over on the shoulder of the road and found her stark naked laying there. He found a blanket under the seat and scooped her up. They drove 100 miles
when they reached a town in Western Canada, called Radium. He rented 2 motel rooms, and baby-sat her in hers until she stirred and woke. At first she was shocked
at the fact of her laying in a foreign bed and seing a man watching t.v. next to her.
"Hey, hey, it's okay kid, settle down."The chubby man said, speaking through his sub, mouth half-full. The girl got ready to drown him, but she looked around her.
It seemed he'd rescued her or somewhat. She decided he wasn't going to kill her, espeacially with a sub sandwich in his hand. She lowered her guard for a second, but
from behind her she heard a large blast. She spun around on the bed to stare at the television, which had a cop's n' robber's show, where the mofia had thrown a
grenade to attempt to send the police off course. The girl settled down again. She had never seen a t.v, but had known of it from the knowledge the chip gave her.
She turned her gaze back to the man again. "What happened?"She glanced down to notice she had a baggy T-shirt resting on her shoulders. It read 'Cubs' on the front
in handwriting. She looked back up at the man in the arm chair.
"I found you on the side of the road,"He started off, swallowing the rest of the sandwich in his mouth, speaking in a clearer voice. "You hadn't a stich on, you looked
like you were dying, or something. You were shivering, your lips were blue and you were wet, like you were in water not to long before."He paused. She suddenly looked
a little put down, in some way. He decided to cut to the chase. "I was shipping Coke to Banff, and this is just a little north, I decided to pick a nice town before we
drive another 3 hours, I'm kinda tired, too kiddo. So this is your room, I was jus' sittin' ya 'till you woke up, just to let you know."He finished off the story she asked
for. She smiled brilliantly at him to thank him silently. "By the way,"He added, "What's your name?"
She froze. She couldn't remember. When she got the chip in her head, all she could remember from her past was being kiddnapped and brought there, and the present. She
looked up at him for a few seconds, searching for a name. When she had picked one, she decided to tell him, but instead she replied "I don't remember."
Whoa, he thought. Was she suffering from a cuncusion, or something? Should he rush her to the hospital? He rose in slight suprise to her answer. She gave him a reasuring
look with her bright light blue eyes. "It's been like that for 5 months. Don't worry."She smiled sweetly again. It didn't take much for her to trust someone. He sat down
again, relieved. He gave her a smile too. "I'll call you Laurie." He decided. It was the name of his mother, who died 13 years ago. She reminded him of her, too. The wavy,
short light blonde hair, the white skin, beautiful face and brilliant blue eyes. It would be nice to have a little friend around for the trip. It looked like she had no where
to go, but he decided to come back later and talk to her.
At about 7:00 p.m, The truck driver, Robert, decided to buy some Food from the corner diner for Laurie, and went to her motel room. He knocked in a du-du-du-dump rythm, as
she unlocked the door and let him in the room. she beamed at the sight of food. For the past year, she had been eating through a needle. They didn't give her proper food,
and she hadn't tasted flavour for a long time. She gave the truck driver an excited look, as he handed her the tray of food. "I wanna apologize for earlier,"Robert started,
as Laurie dug down the food he gave her, "I hadn't told you my name. It's Robert."He gave her a kind of neighborly greeting to the new home. He held out a hand as Laurie gave him
an extremly tight grip, and shook it. Robert took his hand back shockingly to the strength of her hold. His smile disappeared as it had hurt in the knuckles where they had been
curved in from her boa-constrictor wrap on his hand as it hurt terribly. He rubbed his left hand and smiled again. She hadn't noticed for she went back to her barbequed sandwich
after shaking his hand politely. He sat in the arm chair how he did 4 hours earlier and rested his back again. He then started his interview.
"So, I wanted to know alot of things, if you could answer them,"He added quickly. He didn't want to be completely rude and ask her something personal that she found embarrased
about, and thought carefully on his first question. "How did you end up on the side of a Highway, miles from civilization? And with no clothes?"He waited patiently as she stopped
eating the fries. She looked at him, a little apprehensive to answer. The she took in a deep breath and answered a lie. "I was taking a bath in a vacation spot, and it set on fire.
I escaped."She tried to look like she was telling the truth, but such a lie made her heart beat loudly, leaping into her throat. She swallowed and picked up another fry. She then
waited for the next question.
"Is there anyone else back there?" "No." "Is there any family you have to go live with now?" "No." "Are you sure there's no where I can take you to live?" "...No"She said for the
third time. She looked back up at him, munching on another fry. She sat up somewhat, biting her lip, not really wanting to answer, for it could reveal her secret, but she feared
that he'd dump her like a sack of potatoes on the highway where he'd found her if she told him. She couldn't find another lie where he could drop her off, but then decided to make
him promise her something first. "Do you promise that no matter what, you'll help me until I find that place?"She gave him a inoscent look, without a smile, but a sad one. She made
her eyes burn into his soul, as he couldn't help but tell her, "Yes." Laurie slipped up a breath and closed her eyes. "I'm a mutant."She quivered. Robert's eye's widened. He wasn't
expecting somehting of such, and fell back further into the back off the cheap arm chair. He had to take it in for a moment, and then responded "You promise me something?"Laurie looked
up again, suprised, and nodded lightly. "You won't hurt me?"Laurie giggled. "Why would I?"
The next morning, Robert awoke and went down to the department store to buy a few things for Laurie. 4 dresses, women's underware, socks and shoes. He went to her room to give her the
items and waited for her to change. He then took her to Denny's to have breakfast before leaving for Banff. Laurie had a pancake and sunny side up eggs. Robert ordered the Continental
breakfast and a jug of orange juice. They spent the morning talking about their past, and then hit the road. They exchanged little jokes and funny occourences in their lives, except Laurie,
of course. She just listened to Robert's. Then when they went silent, Robert decided to ask the question that itched the back of his brain. "What's...your power?" He looked a little taken
when she smiled sweetly and replied "Hydrokenisis."How could she be so happy about it? Wasn't it a hard part of her life? And importantly...what was hydrokenisis?
Laurie saw the confused look on his face. "I have the ability to create and control water."Robert's head stopped itching. He felt a little relieved to have the question off his back.
He turned on the radio as they listened to Elvis. Laurie was amazed with the radio as she listened, like she'd never heard a radio before. Robert patted her back and sighed. "I think I
know someplace you could go."
