From then on we told each other everything we new. I told him about the outside world, and he told me about life here. He told me about getting out once and stealing a layout of the building, and hiding it in his crate. I told him what it was like going to a normal school. Also he showed me his powers.
It was amazing what he could do. He could pick things up and move them with his mind, and he could shape shift, into any thing he wanted. He could even make something else change, like he cold make a key into a baseball. The bad side was that when he did this it gave him a head ach. It was really cool when you thought about it.
At night some times we would come out of the cages, and walk around a little. The first night, I told how scared I was, and how I missed my parents. When I did he would put his arm around me and say we will be alright, we'll get out and I will help you get back to your old life. And every time he'd hug me close to him.
I think that's what scared me the most, because even here even now I think I'm falling for him.
One day I asked "what DNA did they combine yours with?"
"I don't know." He said almost regretfully, and turned around. I saw that he had bumps on his back like me. Self-consciously I reached behind me to fell it. They got bigger every day and it was getting harder to sleep on it. They where now causing my back to get lumpy and out of shape.
Everyday the white coats came in to see how I was doing. Every day they wrote 'making progress faster than normal.' When they took him away he always came back worst then the last time.
One night round midnight, I woke up and my back felt like it was on fire! It hurt so bad that I screamed and woke Jake up. He saw what kind of pain I was in and used his powers to open my cage and his.
He got out, and said "where does it hurt? Where does it hurt?!" Taking me out he put me in his lap, while I was withering and crying. I pointed to my back. Nodding he set me on the floor, face down, and asked if he could see my back.
I croaked out "yes" and he lifted the back of my shirt so he could only see my back, and gasped. At the same time I felt something pop, and felt something warm on my back, and the pain stop. I turned around to see over my shoulder and what I saw left me stunted.
On my back where a pair of silver and blue wings. Still in Jakes arms I tried to move them. They moved. Carefully I pulled both wings in, they obeyed. I looked at Jake then at the wings, and finally at my hand for it felt like my back did, but on a much smaller scale.
It now had a small black tattoo on my palm in the shape of a circle. I turned and said to Jake "think I know what they did to my DNA."
"I think I know too." He said, he was very pale, and was looking at me differently, like I was someone he new now, like his equal.
"What do we do now?" I ask kind of scared.
"We escape, and soon." He said solemnly.
