"How is my little experiment doing?"

It was old Devlin again. Ok, so he wasn't 'old', he was 28 but still, he was older than me. I think. I really don't know how old I am.

Devlin Hawkins was a doctor of 28, he had brown hair and blue eyes; and stood around 6' 2" to 6' ". I could be wrong about the height, but I'm not sure. It's not like I could stand up next to him, well I could if it wasn't for the fact of me being in a large test tube.

Yes, a test tube. I was and am, an experiment, so me being in a test tube is the best place to keep me. According to them.

"I do have a name you know."

"Ah yes. It's TL5637A00B2" he said stating the name that was engraved on the plate at the bottom of the tube.

"No, I mean I have a real name. It's Miheal. Not that mumble jumble of numbers and letters, ." I made sure to let his name pass over my lips with venom just dripping from it.

"Oh now don't be mean. I'm just trying to be nice." He responded.

"Nice. Fuck that!"

"Now, now. Watch your tongue."

"No! Fuck you. You and these…these…" I was at a loss for words.

"Doctors?" Devlin recommended.

"No. you and these monsters. Calling yourselves 'doctors'. HA! You're not nice like a doctor. No god damn fucking way!"

"Well then.." he paused.

" please come to lab1. We are having…er…problems with the…specimen" the PA announced.

Now that I think about it thou, there was a lot of commotion in the background. As if they were trying to pin someone down and they wouldn't cooperate.

Wait. Lab 1. That was…oh no. they were putting another person down. An experiment went wrong or that means that they either didn't listen to what they were told.

I pray to whatever god may be up there, that it was the latter of the two. It would mean that the rumors of the rebellion were true. And all of us in these damned test tubes were hoping for the rebellion.

Weeks had gone by since visited me. I was told he was at a conference meeting somewhere. No one told me thou. But this was a routine thing. Every year, the 3rd week in April, he would leave and wouldn't be back until the 2nd week in May.

Right now there was a younger female in here, about 16 or 17, taking over for him.

This was my chance. I had been planning this escape ever since I was put in this damned test tube.

I have studied this place so damn well I could tell you where everything is. Where even each individual medical supply was. But being favorite had its perks; I didn't have to walk around with my eyes covered.

It's not that they didn't think I COULD escape. Its' just that I played stupid when it came to memorizing things so that they thought I wouldn't be able to escape so then they would trust me and then I could plan this escape. Ha! This will show them!

I waited for her to turn her back on me so she couldn't see what I had planned. Although I most likely would have scared the living shit out of her if she was to see the huge smirk plastered on my face.

I kneed the crack that had formed ages ago in the glass. Although in the plan that I had mapped out in my brain I did not come rushing out with the water, but the water had its owns plans for me.

The water started rushing out of the tube taking me with it. The young woman started yelling and screaming as the water made its way toward her.

Another flaw in my plan was that I didn't take a close enough look as to where the woman was standing, and that stupidity that I showed caused a setback in my plan.

*wailing siren*

Damn! Fuck! Fuck! Fuckkkkk!

Part of my plan had been to get some of the other kids out of their test tubes, but if I did that I wouldn't get out and then I would never have this chance at escaping again.

My mind automatically went into auto pilot and made me run down the hall. I dogged people, medical supplies, and other random objects that got in my way.

After about 10 minutes of running I made a sharp turn around the corner and slammed into the wall. I hit it hard enough that I could hear my back crack. I slumped down the wall and put my head back against it.

I really need to move but it hurts. Damn.

I could hear the guards running down the hall and shouting commands. I push myself up off the wall and ran. I pushed past my pain. I didn't want to but I needed to. My mind yelled at me to run faster but if I did, I would collapse right here and never escape this place.

I turned another corner and saw my destination. A set of large metal double doors that led outside. I gave myself a boost of energy, even thou my body was saying that I shouldn't, and ran to the doors.

I shoved them open and marveled at the sight in front of me. Sure I have seen the outside, but only on the TV or in magazines. I have never actually seen it right in front of my eyes before.

Before my eyes was a small round green garden at the center of the front lawn area. A gravel path that wound around the garden leading down to the gate. There were many trees on both sides of the path along with wildflowers spread all over in random places.

I was brought out of my thoughts by shouting from the guards that seemed a LOT closer than it did before.

Before I started running I looked around the place, checking for the snipers that I knew would be out there, watching and waiting for me to start running so they could take me out before I ever reached the gate.

Nothing. That's what I didn't want. Now there was no way of being able to see the sniper's in their hiding places.

I chanced it and ran. It was either be captured or run, and I choose the latter of the two, thank you very much. I ran as fast as my legs and lungs would allow me to. Cutting through the garden I ran a straight line to the gate. I didn't dare run through the trees. Snipers were known for hiding in tall places and those trees were definitely tall.

*gunshots*

I felt 3 bullets whiz past my, one close enough that I could have reached out and licked the damn piece of lead if I wanted to.

The bullets told me I need to pick up my pace, even though I was about 6 feet from the gate and closing in. They hadn't killed me yet thou, so that meant that the snipers weren't out on post yet, but who knows how much longer that was going to last. I was 2 feet from it and jumped onto the gate. I started my incline up the 8 foot gate.

Pain seared through a spot just above my kneecap. I wanted to check it out. To see how bad it was bleeding, but my need for freedom was more important at the moment. I could check it after I got my freedom.

I landed on the other side of the gate with a THUMP. I stood up and went straight into a sprint only to land smack dab on my face in the gravel.

I looked back to see that my pants had snagged themselves on the spikes at the bottom of the gate. I reached down trying desperately to get them un-snagged. I was so close to freedom that I just had to snag them.

I heard crunching sounds coming from behind me. I turned around but I wasn't quick enough. I felt another searing pain, but this time in the base of my neck.

I felt the left side of my face bury itself into the gravel very fast and painfully. I was old army colored combat boots in front of my face. I tried to move my eyes farther up so I could see who hit me, but my eyes fluttered shut, letting darkness rush in and consume my mind.
