"You are to make my dreams come true"
Weak
Stop
"I have been waiting for something like you"
Pathetic
Please stop
"Time for your next ...lesson"
Worthless
I'm sorry mother...
I never wanted you...did you know that?
No more please...
Baby girl, how I love you...
I despise the very breath you take around you
My little lady...
It's your fault! It's always your fault!
Play with daddy...
You can never do anything right!
I'm...sorry
You destroy everything you touch!
My precious baby girl...let me feel you
Let's play for awhile...
Can you play with my friends baby girl?...
Leave me alone!
Smile for the camera princess
Why won't you just do us a favor and die! "With your blood, I'll make everyone...perfect"
I have to do something!
I have to stop her!
Before it's too late!
I have to act now!
"Next lesson!"
"Frisk! Wake up!"
Someone's shaking you...but your body is too heavy to do anything about it. Your head is killing you, there's just too many...too many voices. They won't stop, they won't leave you alone.
"Frisk please! Before it's too late!"
Before...it's too ...late? That's right, you have to stop her. You have to get up!
"Frisk...I'm sorry..."
As if a spell was broken, you awoke to the sound of Gaia's voice. You were in the nurses' office again. You never again slept in the dorms, or attended any of the classes. All you did, all you could do, was let the mistress have her way with you. The needles and the shock indused therapy. You could remember vagely the lesson were she would blast your body with cold water. All to 'teach' you, to numb you, to not feel. With your body induced in a constant state of pain and agony, you started to lose the perspective of when it was day and night.
With Gaia's help, you slowly sat up on the bed. Seeing how you couldn't sit up right without potentially falling back down, Gaia sat next to you. Leaning on to her for support, you opened your notebook. 'Why are you here? Aren't you scared of me?'
"Don't be silly, you're my friend" your heart clenched at those words. But soon sank as you remembered the last words of the mistress.
'We have to leave! The mistress is going to start her testing soon!'
"Then let's run! I know a way out of here. If we go now, they might not notice us."
'We can't leave everyone...they'll die. Just like the missing students.'
"But we can't take them! There's too many, there's no way we could escape with all of them!"
'We'll sneak into her office! There must be something in there that can help us.' You looked at your friend's face, who was battling with herself. You couldn't put her in danger, the only one that ever showed you kindness. So you decided, you had to do this alone. 'Don't worry, I'll go alone. Find a safe place till I come back. Okay?' She smiled, but shook her head.
"I can't just hide and let you go on your own. I'll go with you." You were so happy to hear those words, that you almost cried. You weren't alone..."If anything happens, I'll protect you." Suddenly you were wrapped in her arms. Your body stiffened at the sudden embrace. You found that you didn't hate it. It was nothing like the hugs your father gave you.
"Let's go. The mistress should be attending the monthly training performance."
Looking to see that no one was around, you and Gaia made your way to the head mistress' office. Gaia quietly closed the door behind her as you two looked everywhere. On and in her desk and all the cabinets you two could find, were searched. Then you remembered, the room she always took you. The dark wooden door near her desk. Opening it you found yourself staring at the chair. Prying your eyes away from it, you noticed the table that held the needles she would use for her lessons and amongst them were a couple of files. There were all on the experimental process on enhancing the soul, using children under the age of 18. There were long lists of failures, none of the children lasted long with the treatment. There was even more buildings like the one you were in. Hidden everywhere, they even reported on finding potential subjects. But there was something about not having the right aspect they were looking for. The subjects saw too much and had to be disposed of. Files went back to hundreds and hundreds of years. Starting with the frist child, 0001. The first one they tested on was a success. But something went horribly wrong, and had to scrap it.
Just then you heard footsteps. Not finding anything that could save you or the students, you grabbed Gaia's hand and fled from the office.
"Mrs. Hills the students were in my office! Get the guards! Now!"
Picking up speed, Gaia started to take lead. Taking you all the way to the secret room. "There's...a...a gap we can...use to escape the building in here."
Your heart started to pound loudly as you fled from the building. The voices of screaming adults followed you two, but you didn't dare to look back. Running as fast as you could with Gaia's hand supporting your own, you made it all the way to the forest. Catching your breath at a nearby fallen tree, you started to hear the sound of rustling leaves. How did they get so close!? Thinking fast, you opened your journal, and you started to write.
'You have to run! I'll distract them so you can escape!'
"I...I can't just leave you! They..they-"
'I'll be fine, I promise, just go.' Hearing the voices get closer, Gaia ran.
"THERE SHE IS! SHOOT SHOOT!" the sound of bullets rang through the forest. Huddled behind the tree, you waited. At the sight of one of the adults, you leaped out and grabbed their leg. The next thing you knew, the guard had clocked your face with the side of his gun.
You fell into utter darkness.
...
"What do we do about the other one."
"Leave her, we only came for this one."
The guards took your body back inside the building. Were the headmistress waited for you. "Couldn't you have retrieved it without harming it first! Do you know what could have happened if something went wrong and we end up losing it before the final processes!? No of course you don't, because I'm working with a bunch of idiots!" The head mistress crossed her arms and let out a sigh. "Take her down to the basement, I'll be down to join her in a bit, Mrs. Hills and I need to start the preparation." Dismissing the guards, the head mistress went back to her office with Mrs Hills. In a large locked cabinet, they started to drag out a box that contained a higher concentrated dose of the drug they were currently administrating. "Mrs. Hills, start the treatment on the remaining students. I want to start seeing results as soon as possible."
The mistress headed downstairs, to a hidden lab she has built behind a supply closet. Her one and true hideaway. How she would walk down to the chill of this room and dream of the one day she would be using it. The lab blared with blinding lights with walls covered in large containers of luminescent liquid and in the middle layed a table, with your unconscious body strapped on top of it. The mistress went to each of the containers, grabbing the tubes that connected them, she screwed them into place to a tank that rested near your body. Twisting the nozzle on the tank, she strapped a mask over your mouth. "Make my dreams come true." She whispered as she left your body.
Gaia was afraid. Afraid for her life, afraid that you might not come back. Standing in the dark forest alone, she decided she had to go back, she had to get you out. She always felt afraid of everything, she had to fight back, at least once. Deciding her fate, she went back.
Sneaking back to the school, she noticed the mistress leaving the supply closet. When she was nowhere in sight, she ran to the door finding that she had left a passage open. Not sparing it any thought, she ran to it. Down the dark stairs and into the brightly illuminated lab she ran towards your body. Ignoring her fear, she forgot everything around her. Afraid that, at any moment if she would even stop for a second, she would not be able to continue. She unstrapped your bonds and removed your mask. "Frisk please wake up, come on hurry up!" She patted your cheeks, "...we have to leave. Please... I'm scared..."
"GET away from it!"
...
Your chest felt heavy and hot. But other than that minor detail, the rest of your body felt ...light. You slowly awakened from your slumber. A glaring light was above you; feeling as if you were laying on top of a hard and cold surface, turning your head left you saw your friend. As you were about to smile at her, you noticed her face stricken in fear. Confused, you slowly raised your hand towards her. Time slowed as you heard a loud sound coming from your right. The next thing you knew, Gaia's body fell to the ground. Stumbling off of the table you tried to reach her. She laid motionless on the floor. Rocking her gently, silently wishing her to open her eyes. Feeling something wet and sickly warm against the palm of your hands, you stopped. Your eyes started to blur at the sight of them, for they were covered in her blood. Unable to breathe, you looked around the floor. Blood seeped out of her body, covering her and yourself in it. You grabbed hold of her ever growing cold body.
She could have left you, not like this! 'Please, please don't leave!'
Something broke inside of you.
It was all your fault.
If it wasn't for you, she wouldn't have died like this.
Slowly rising from the floor, you looked upon the head mistresses who was standing near the stairway. Seeing your face caused her to run. Not wanting to let her go you followed. Steadying you breath and clearing your mind as you followed the frantic mistress. Following her all the way to her office, hearing her panicked attempt to call the guards. She stopped when she saw you standing there by her door.
"You didn't need her...you were built for greatness." You were tired of hearing her, tired of humans. You ran towards her grabbing her throat. Tightening your hold you mustered all your strength and threw her into the hall. Her body crashed against the wall. Armed guards starting rushing towards her and started firing at you. You dodged them by hiding behind the desk. "Stop! You must not kill it, we need it alive!" At the sound of the bullets seizing fire, you took hold of the desk. Adrenaline pumping faster through out your body, you shoved it with all your strength. Sending it toppling over, crashing down the guards. Under the heap of debris the mistress and guards crawled out from underneath. You watched as she tried to leave. Climbing over the carnage, you walked over the crawling mistress. "Please...please...dont..." you stomped on her leg, making a sickening bone crushing sound. The headmistress' scream rang through the halls. Grabbing her disheveled hair, you brought her face closer to yours.
"I...gra..nt you ...mer..cy" your voiced cracked from the lack of use,"Mercy...that..you failed..to give to..your stude...nts.." leaving her and the passed out guards, you ran back to the dormitory. When you arrived you saw that all the students had died. Every single one of them laid dead on their beds, never to open their eyes again. Hearing more guards, you ran again. Picking up speed you fled to the gym. You ran to the door that led to the track field. You frantically tried opening it...it was locked! You were going to be cornered.
Think think, there has to be away out. Looking at the wooden weapons rack you decided that if you couldn't find a way out, you'll make one. Grabbing a reinforced stick, you hid. Sooner or later, guards led by Mrs. Hills came rushing in. Finding your chance, you ran and slid beside one of the guards. Knocking him down, and caught off guard, you swung your weapon across their legs. At the sound of their bones being crushed by your force, you then grabbed one of the arms of the fallen guard, flipping him over your shoulder at the remaining guards. As they came crashing down, you lept over their falling bodies. Landing in front of Mrs. Hills. She staggered as you got closer, jumping into the air you struck her across the head. Causing her to fall over. Collapsed on the ground, you reached into her pocket and grabbed a key. Having the key in your hand, you ran off.
Reaching the nurses' office you stopped. Looking at the window, you saw your reflection. Your clothes were covered in blood. Clenching tightly on the stick at the sight, you went to the bed were you had slept. Underneath it, you grabbed your shorts, putting them on, you took out the key and unlocked the closet near by. Ripping of your blood soaked shirt, you put on your sweater.
Feeling slightly better, you were about to head out when you started to hear something being dragged against the floor. Somone was coming! Running through the door you noticed it was the headmistress, pointing a gun at you. Your heart pounded faster as you stared at the barrel of the gun. Dodging to the side, the mistress pulled the trigger, sending multiple bullets flying past you. Merely grazing the side of your face, you looked behind you to see that one had hit a small tank that rested near the medicine cabinet and the other smashing the the florescent light above. The tank started to make a hissing sound and the broken light started to spark. Having the mistress distracted, you ran past her, towards the front door as the the tank gave out with a large blast. As you ran, you heard the mistress screaming for you to come back and a roaring sound of flames behind you. Your legs started to burn, as you eyed the front door. Making one final leap, you trampled through the door.
The fire spread rapidly though out the decrepit building.
Standing safely outside, you watched as the fire danced in the night.
Tired and alone, you turned your back from your past. To everything that had tormented you...for now you were finally free.
Rain started to come down. Holding tightly on your weapon, you made your way to the forest. Deep in the forest, you manage to find your abandoned notebook. Gathering it in your arms you disappeared deeper into the dark.
Burying away your sorrow, your pain, your torment,
Your soul filled with determinaton.
