Chapter 8

Outside Chris and the others had arrived, they looked at the compund it was big, bigger than the others they had been at, Chris signaled for the others to join him, he said

"ok now we split up, remember no risks, go in get the kids and get out, if you find anything you think can help us then grab it, but enough so you can carry ok".

The two teams had been fixed in the van, Chris, Claire and Leon in one and Jill, Barry and Rebecca in the second, Chris lead his team into the compound heading North, Barry and the others headed South. They snuck in through an elevator shaft, from the maps Trent had given them they would come out in the third floor, the research Lab. Barry and the others would come up at the virus compounds, Chris looked around he could not see anyone, he didn't like it, he signaled for Leon and Claire to folow him. He opened one of the doors with the keycard and walked in. Leon looked around the room, it was an office of some sort, just papers with numbers on them, there were a few videos, cartoons, and a couple of action flicks.

Claire opened a drawer and said "hey you guys, I think I got something"

Chris and Leon joined Claire, she held a memo, it was form Robert O'Conner to the rest of the technicians,

Everything must be in place, the subjects will be brought in and then the tests must begin, start with the blood test and then this will determine the next move.

Chris looked at Claire, "ok so they are gonna do a blood test, but what will the blood test tell them"

Leon said "maybe it will tell them if the twins are ready for the rest of the experiment yet, I mean why would they wait till now and bring them in, there has to be some significance with age here"

Claire said

"I think we should try and find these kids ASAP and tell them what is going on, before they get a chance to continue the experiment, that way we can get out and then still be able to explain things to them". Chris agreed and they left the room, hoping that Barry and the others were doing their stuff on the other side of the compound.

Alex sat with Lee, he was still feeling sore after the blood test, Robert looked through the micro-scope, he was in the room next door, the technician said

"well sir.....now we know the girl is the stronger one, so would like us to go to phase two"

Robert nodded

"yes we can't wait any longer..........take Alex and get this finished, I will work on the boy, go now".

The Technician walked out of the room, he walked throught next door and walked over to Alex and Lee, he smiled

"ok Alex you have to come with me so we can finish the tests"

Alex said

"I'm staying here with my brother, he's not feeling too good, I'll do it later"

Lee said

"I'm ok Alex, Dad'll be in soon, you go and get this done, then we can go and take a look at the rest of the place".

Alex said

"ok if your sure, you'll be ok, you need anything you get Dad to come and get me".

The Technician lead Alex out of the room and down the corridor, as they were walking another Technician came running out of the Lab, she ran over to Alex and whispered someting to the other Technician, he turned to Alex and said

"ok Alex you go into the room at the end of the corridor and wait for me there"

Alex nodded and said

"ok",

the two technicians ran off round the corner, Alex continued down the corridor.

Alex continued down the corridor, as she passed one of the rooms she was suddenly grabbed and dragged into it, Alex turned and kicked her attacker, his gun flew over to the other side of the room, she put her had round his neck and kicked his stomach. The attacker moaned the force of the kick sent him flying over to the other side of the room, Alex walked over to the guy, she was grabbed again, she threw the person against the wall and thats when she saw the third, she was young, her brown hair tied in a red band, she out her hands up in surrendor, Alex held her fists up, she had taken martial arts as a kid, never knew she could do that though. The girl said

"hey it's ok, we're not here to hurt you"

Alex looked at her, she did not lower her defence

"yeah....so is that what you usually do, drag people into rooms and say you won't hurt them".
