Hello! So I was bored and had to wait thirty minutes in the car before my batting practice started so I decided to work on the next chapter! So I hope you like it!

Chapter Four:

Present… October 25th… 1:00 p.m… One year after Max was abandoned… Itex Building… A little outside of Berlin, Germany… Max POV…

The Itex Building is made from the structure of an old abandoned factory. Most of the labs are underground to lessen suspicion. Hate to say it, all evil scientists sure are clever. I step out of the limo and enter through the door. On the other side, I see two guards. I showed them my bage which was given to me a few minutes ago and they let me enter. White. That is all I see. Memories start to fill my brain and I force down a shudder. The door closes behind me and I stop at the sudden noise. Great. This place is already making me extra jumpy.

Max? Can you hear me?" There is a bit of static but otherwise I can hear Jeb's annoying voice. I winced slightly as my eardrum burst.

"Yeah,"

Ok, good. You are meeting with your boss first before you start working-

"I am already starting work! These people don't waste any time, do they?"

As I was saying, Max, the conference room is down the hall and the third door on your left. I suggest you start walking.

I start walking in the direction Jeb mentioned and sooner than expected, I come to the third door on the left. I take a deep breath, preparing myself for what terror I might hear, and slowly, I turn the knob of the door. Inside was a long gray conference table, white walls, and computers on one wall of the room. At the very end of the room is who I assumed is my boss. He is a short but slightly intimidating man. He looks mid sixties but his head is full of brown hair, he has tan skin and yellow-brown eyes. His face is in a permanent stern looking line.

I gulp slightly and step inside, closing the door behind me. He smiles when he sees me slightly terrified and motions for me to come forward. Hey! You would be terrified too if you were a mutant bird and now pretending to be a psycho scientist; standing in front of a crazy boss who looks like he has done terrible terrible things.

I step forward until I am against the edge of the table, facing Mr. Psycho Boss. I try to smile but I don't think I pulled it off.

"Ah, Miss Kennedy Rickety. It is a pleasure to have you here! I am so glad that you are taking over as head of the poison department! (AN: that sounded weird. Lol) I am your boss, Mark Davids. Here is the key to your labs, the experiment's cages, and some files on each of the experiments you will be testing on. You are about to accomplish great things here." He hands me the files and two sets of keys and continues to smile that damn scary smile. I smile slightly and gladly take the stuff so he doesn't notice anything off.

Once I get out of the room, I shudder and start walking towards the direction of the labs I'll be running. Let the hell begin. . .

I'm going to stop it there for now. Sorry it is so short but I wanted to get a chapter in before I went to batting practice. I hoped you liked it! The next chapter will be up soon. I want to thank everyone who has reviewed!
