Amy's POV
I wake up strapped to a table. There are leather bands crossing my wrists and ankles, and a strap across my head. I have no idea what kind of a room I'm in, because I can only look straight up, into a bright white light.
I can here footsteps and voices around me, and I would really like to know who the heck is walking around.
"Time to begin."
The table begins to buzz, and rise up so that I'm in a standing position. It's only then do I notice three things; 1. Isabel is right in front of me, smirking. 2. Natalie is strapped to a similar table directly across from me. 3. There is a rather scary looking doctor walking around the room.
The Doctor has that look about her that kind of reminds me of Aunt Beatrice. She has long black hair, pulled up in a hairnet, and she is wearing a white lab coat.
"Why." I choke out.
Isabel laughs. "You ruined my chances of victory, now I'll ruin your chances at happiness.
The doctor hands Isabel a needle, and walks over to stand by Natalie, who has been gagged.
"1...2...3..." Isabel counts.
" Go!" They both say.
I have to say I screamed as the needle was jabbed in my arm.
For the next two days, all I would experience is pain.
Ian's POV
We were all gathered in the CCC, sitting in our respective chairs. Dan had been trying to sound upbeat all day, but he lacked his usual bounce.
As for me, I had kind of given up on life in total. My hair remained uncombed and all I was wearing was a pair of American jeans and a T-shirt.
"Ian," Sinead leaned closer to me. "What does the SW (serum weapon) do?"
" I look down. "I'm not sure. It's supposed to be this gene altering poison that will either kill you or turn you into the ultimate weapon."
"What's this ultimate weapon?" Reagan asks. I wasn't aware she had been paying attention. She'd seemed quite occupied playing footsie with Ted.
"No Idea, only that you stay alive."
"So..." Dan pipes up. "We are going to do this whole thing assuming they already gave them the SW, and our goal is to rescue them and heal them."
"We got some Tomas healers coming in." Hamilton adds.
" Tomas! As healers?" I ask incredibly.
" Don't sound so surprised pretty boy! We injure ourselves most often; therefore, we need the best healers."
The meeting was dismissed after a few more minutes, and I go upstairs to my room. I lie down on my bed thinking about Amy. I hear a rap on my door.
"Come in!" I yell.
When no one enters I go to the door and open it. I'm really not in the mood for any of Dan's pranks, but I didn't think he would be, either.
When I open the door, I am surprised to find, a folded square of paper, about the size of a matchbox. I take it back inside, and unfold it only to find, a large map of the world. There are little pushpin holes all through it, and I am surprised to see that the holes are grouped together in the locations of the clue hunt.
I start at Boston, and walk my finger to Paris, then Italy, and then... The entire country of Korea has been scribbles out with black marker. It only takes me this long to figure out that this is Amy's map. She erased Korea, the place where our love bloomed, and our hatred flared.
I still feel incredibly guilty over Korea, but I guess I'm not surprised Amy felt this way about it all. I just hope she's OK.
Amy's POV
I wake up and gasp, my body feels so different. I find that my body is strapped down, but it doesn't stop me from sitting up and staring in the miorr across from my bed. Pair of golden eyes stare back at me.
Hope you guys like it.
