Chapter 2
"Crap! If we get caught down here we're dead!" Noah started panicking.
"Get a hold of yourself." Bobo scolded. "This is what makes it fun."
"Come on before they send in the army." Rex motioned for his friends too follow him to the door. I stayed put. Knowing I didn't belong in that world but wanting desperately to see the light of day again. Suddenly Rex stopped and spun around. "Come on Kaycee!" I was in shock for only a split second before I took off after them. Who was this boy? And why would he care whether or not I stayed locked away in this dark hole?
Noah and Bobo made it through the closing steel doors with ease but the passageway was narrowing quickly. Rex dove through the opening, barely making it. I stopped dead in my tracks, there was no way I would make it through now. Suddenly, Rex's left arm transformed into a huge metal fist. He wedged it between the doors.
"Take my hand!" he said reaching towards me with his right arm, that was still normal. Hesitantly, I grabbed his hand and he pulled me through the door just as it shattered the metal on his left arm. We shielded ourselves from the shrapnel that was flying everywhere.
"Are you guys ok?" Noah asked hurrying over to us.
"Yeah, fine." said Rex straightening and brushing metal fragments off of his clothes. "See that was fun, wasn't it?"
"Fun? You can't be serious?" Noah asked. The look on Rex's face said he was and that it was probably the most "fun" he'd had in days.
"Rex!" voices /shouted as a group of people ran towards us.
"Uh oh." Bobo muttered. I looked up to see at least a dozen armed men and two faces I somehow recognized. It wasn't until they got closer , that I was finally able to place them.
"What do you think you're-" the female stopped at looked at me, her eyes went wide. "Kaycee?" she asked.
"Miss me, doc?" I smirked.
"I don't understand- Rex do you know what you've done?" she shrieked. Six tried to grab me but I ducked out of the way.
"Ah, ah ,ah. I wouldn't if I were you." I warned. "Remember what happened last time you tried to put your hands on me?" Six stepped back.
"What do you mean, last time?" Rex asked.
"How else do you think I got into that prison? That one drugged me," I pointed to Doctor Holiday, "And that one grabbed me. Next thing I knew I was waking up, strapped to a table in some lab." I told him. Rex stared at me in disbelief for a moment. "I won't be your guinea pig again doctor." I growled.
"What is she talking about?" Noah cut in.
"Nothing. You boys get out of here. She's coming with us." Six ordered and I took a few more steps back.
"I don't think so." I spat.
"It's not up for discussion-" Doctor Holiday started but Rex cut in.
"It is now." Rex stepped in front of me.
"Move." Six ordered.
"Rex you don't understand-" she tried again.
"No, I don't think you understand. You're trying to force her back into a dark cell to be left alone and forgotten. I won't let you do that to her."
"Frankly, you don't have a say in the matter." Six folded his arms.
"I beg to differ." Suddenly, Rex grabbed me and threw me onto the back of the vehicle he made appear. I held on as we sped away leaving Noah and Bobo behind to deal with the others.
