Yay, I fixed my computer it was down for weeks but would come up once in a while but now I got it fixed!!

Casey's POV

"You'll see" She helped me into my wheelchair and pushed me outside the door. She rolled me out of my room and into the hallway, the hallway was round and ended up going to a huge dome area. The sunshine felt like I had gotten touched by an angel, so warm and wonderful.

"Sunshine!" I laughed and pulled my arms out of the blanket I was wrapped up in. She laughed with me and called for the doctor to notify them I was awake. In a few minutes three other people were pulled in, some did what I had done but then some just looked with awe on their faces. There was only two men in the dome room with me right now and looked vaguely familiar but that didn't worry me the only thing I had to worry about was where I was, heaven or earth still?

"Hello I'm Dr. Linda Maeding and this is Dr. Matthew Morris. We have wonderful news for you all, your telomeres are growing!" A woman said smiling and flicked a television on showing little chromosomes with beads of a necklace on the end of it. "This is a magnified sample from Ms. McDonald, I believe, but all of you are showing the same results. I know that there are only 10 of you here now but in a week or so all the rest will show up. Scientists have known since the 1970s that each time a normal cell divides, the repeated sequences are reduced. It's like a necklace that shrinks. Until recently it was believed that only abnormal cells, like cancer cells, were immortal and didn't have shrinking telomeres."

"We all have cancer!" A woman shouted.

"No, no, no" He hurriedly called out, "You all have more than perfectly healthy. But cancer telomeres don't grow like this that's what I'm trying to tell you. You are all getting younger or to coin a phrase, unaging," He explained then stepped back and with a triumphant grin on his face, waiting for the news to sink in. The noise had ceased but all of a sudden started again, I just looked around looking for someone to share this news to. There was one of the men near me on a stretcher so I rolled over to him and grabbed his hand.

"We're getting younger!" I whispered and gripped his hand tighter. The room was filled with "What do they mean?" "How can this be happening?" "Unaging is that even possible" "Did you hear what he said?" "Did I hear correctly?"

"So when can we see our families?" A woman asked shyly across the room.

"W-e-l-l, that's something we need to talk to you about. Dr. Maeding?" He shifted so she could stand where all of us could see her.

"Your families aren't going to visit you because they think you all are dead" she scratched her arm nervously.

"We didn't plan on doing it this way since for a week or to it seemed that you were dead. You went into-well a coma for better lack of word. Dr. Maeding and I are still doing research about any record similar to this. Some of the rest are still in them," Dr. Morris said over the rush of voices.

"You and your family signed documents that said we could do extensive research over your bodies, so got to keep all your bodies together…" Dr. Maeding started, but the group started to talk.

"Well I'm kind of glad that this opportunity happened. Are you?" I asked the man next to me. I was still holding his hand, he seemed like he hadn't held hands in along while and needed a friend.

"Kinda…I messed up with a girl I truly loved…." He started then trailed off and stared off into space.

"Well I'm Case…" I started to say but Dr. Maeding started to talk again, "You can see all the documents and check out the signatures, but you all signed it legally. Some of you actually begged to get into the program"

"Derek" He whispered and then started to cough. The people taking care of Derek took him out as soon as the doctors got off the podium to speak to a lady in the front.

"Miss McDonald! So glad you could join us today. how's your room?" Dr. Morris asked walking me back to my room, the others had left at about the same time as me.

"Good, good" I mummbled not wanting to talk to him any more, "But thanks for the oppurtoniy"

"of course, of course. You were one of the firsts" he said pushing me into my room now. He layed me down on my bed again and the remote and set it by my side, "there you go"

"thanks" I mummbled again and drifting off to sleep after he had left the room.

I was sitting in a sunflower bed and watching the sun rise. When I saw Derek, Lizzie, and Edwin laughing and coming aroung the bend. LIZZIE!! i yelled and ran to her side. She smilied at me and then ran off with Edwin to thier old games closet. I was stuck with Derek again but I didn't mind one bit. He looked as good as he always did. Messey hair, sort of matching cloths, and my old dog chain I had got him when I told him that I loved him.
Hi Derek, how are you? I asked looking at him. We had moved over to the sunflower bed and sat down. He looked at me and smilied lovingly, but stood up and walked down a pathway I hadn't even seen when I was sitting on the flower bed. Wait! Where are you going? I yelled trying to foloow him but the pathway just dissappered just like it had reappeared. I went down another path near the path derek had walked on but as I did I started to age when I got to my 50s I started to run back to thye flower bed and when I got there Derek was sitting there with another girl and looking disgusted by why I would come back in my 50s.
Casey? He asked looking at my fifty year old body and stood up taking the girls hand and walking over to where Lizzie and Edwin had come back. I sat down on the bed trying to get Derek to come back and take my hand but they started to run away.
