You guys are lucky! You get an update thanks to poseidongurl4. She updated and she also had a question so I'll answer it:
Bree's name is from Eclipse. If you get a chance, read the summary if you haven't already and that explains the name and their ages.
Anyway, I like writing from Angel's point of view so much, you get to read from it again. Yay! Alright enough talking, here's the chapter!
ALSO! I HAVE A NEW POLL UP. PLEASE VOTE!
Chapter 6:
Wha—? Where am I? Oh no. this must be a dream! It's got to be! I can't be here again! No, no.
"Angel! You're awake! Oh thank God!" said a small boy in a cage.
"J-Jacob? What happened?" I asked totally out of it.
"Jeb. I know you think he's dead but your wrong. Look I'll explain later but no matter what happens or what he does, he's on our side. Right now we are in a van being transported to the school in California. Jeb knocked out those other scientists and ordered us to be transferred. The California School has been over-run with good scientists. Anyway, that's where we are going. Shhh! There's someone coming."
Wow. That's the longest I've ever heard him speak but before I could say anything the doors opened and the light blinded us.
"Well, well. Who do we have here? Ah, this must be Angel. And your Jacob? How pleasant. Come. We have much to discuss. I will let you walk but you must promise me to not fly away. We are your friends. Do you promise?" said a tall female with dark black hair.
"Yes." Said Jacob immediately but I hesitated. Max said not to trust anyone. The only person you could trust was yourself. I glanced at Jacob and he nodded.
"Alright." I said. I was still cautious but Jacob seemed to trust her and I trusted Jacob. She unlocked our cages and as I promised, I kept my wings to my back but ready to unfurl in a seconds notice. Jacob seemed totally at ease.
We walked in the double doors and down a long narrow hallway. There was no more an antiseptic smell that used to linger but a homey smell. Like peppermint and soap. There were still open lab windows that you could see into the rooms from the hall. No more lab tables were set up. All was replaced for a living room/bedroom set up. What was going on?
"I told you two if you didn't run you would be safe. I keep my promise by showing you to your rooms. There are no cameras though for our safety there will be a guard patrolling the halls every two hours to look into the windows. I hope you find yourselves at home." With that the lady left.
"Jacob? Do you think this is a trap? I mean isn't this a little… suspicious?" I asked him. He was the only person I could truly trust in this situation.
"No. like I said, Jeb took care of everything. It's his own little operation. All the other schools are run by the Institute for Higher Living. Maybe you've heard of it? Well anyway, we're safe. Trust me." He said walking over to the bed with blue and black covers while I looked at the one with orange and black covers. That must be mine.
"You said you talked to Jeb? I'm sorry to tell you Jacob but Jeb is de—"
"No. he's not! I talked to him just yesterday. He's alive. Actually I'm sorry to tell you that he lied to you guys. He did it to protect you though. Don't be mad at him." He said. He was now going through a pile of children books then quickly went over to the more grown up looking books and grazed through them finally picking one out.
"Advanced reading. Your only 6? Nice." I decided to drop the Jeb thing. He was dead. I just know.
"Well yeah. I was programmed that way. I more mentally advanced but I don't really like to brag." He said smiling at me. I blushed. Whoa. I never blush. He is a little cute though. Well a good night sleep and that'll get my head straight. Yeah.
Yawn.
"Good night Jacob."
"'Night Angel."
I dreamt that I was swimming. I could breath underwater. Cool. The light was getting dimmer. Black surrounding me. Then a searing pain in my arm. I swam faster and faster but the pain spread. I couldn't swim any longer. I sank deeper and deeper. I couldn't breathe. I was dying.
