Chapter 12

Lee stood in the lab, Robert watched him like a hawk, looking for any sign that the solution was causing any damage, it had not done anything so far but there was still time, so far his plan had gone perfeclty, all he neede now was for the new solution to do it's job and he would be laughing. Robert wlked over ot Lee and said "are you alright Lee, how do you feel". Lee turned and smiled "yeah I'm fine Dad, so what is it we're going to do now". Robert smiled and thought about the possibilities

with this I am unstoppable, they can't stop me now, all I have to do now is get Alex and my project will be completed.

Robert gave Lee his orders and then went back to his work, Lee was sitting on the chair, the door suddenly burst open. Chris and the others ran in, their guns trained on Robert, Chris spotted Lee, he called to him "hey Lee you have to come with us, your in trouble, come on lets go" Lee stood up and looked at Chris, he was confused "what do you mean in trounle, I am fine".

Robert looked at Chris and smiled "is there something I can help you with, is there some sort of problem".

Chris looked at Robert a look of hatred sweeping over his face "you now why we're here, you are trying to turn this kid and his sister into bio- weapons"

Lee jumped forward "where's Alex where is my sister". Robert tunred to Lee and said "they have probably killed her Lee, they hate us, they are hateful of the good work we do, they want to kill us and that is what they have probably done to Alex".

The door opened again, Alex ran in, Lee looked at her and smiled "Alex your ok, thank god, whats going on, who are these people", Alex walked over to her brother and embraced him, she had never done it before, she was so pleased to see he was alright and didn't care what anyone thought,

thank god he's alright, all I have to do now is get him outta here safely.

"Lee you have to trust me, look we can walk outta here together, but we can't trust him, he's trying to kill us."

Lee looked at Alex as if she were crazy then he turned to Robert and said "what is she talking about Dad.....are you trying to kill us". Robert smiled "of course not, I love you both very much, why on earth would I want to kill my own children me and your-"

the door opened again, Chris and the others trained their guns on the door, a woman stood, she looked scared, Lee broke the silence "mum what are you doing here...did you finish work early. Mum can you help us, Alex and these people are saying that you and Dad are trying to kill us, is this true" Jane didn't know what to say, she looked at her husband and then at her children she had dreaded this day since she had first learned that it would have to happen, but she also knew of the consequences if the project was not completed, she turned to Lee adn Alex and said "no of course not, why would we do that, we both love you very much and wouldn't dream of hurting you. You should know that". Lee loooked at Alex adn said "see, it's lies". Chris threw the papers to Alex, she handed them to Lee, as he read his eyes widened, he looked at Jane and Robert his eyes filled with hurt and sadness, "how could you do this, why, is it for the money, why". Alex left her brother and walked over to Jane and Robert, she looked at them with hate and anger

they had done this, they had ruined her life as well as Lees and they had not even bothered about it, they didn't even look sorry, they were worried, they were not going to get the money for whatever they were going to do.

Robert and Jane stood watching their children turn against them, Robert knew he had to do something, he had to lure Alex away from the rebels in order to complete the project, he had to do it soon. Chris wanted to get out, they had been here too long and he didn't like the look of Robert, he was up to something but what Chris had no idea what is was he was up to but he had a bad feeling they would find out. Alex turned to Lee and said "come on Lee we're getting outta here......now"

Lee looked at his parents, he was hurt, he could not believe they could do this to him and Alex

how could they do this, they are our parents, they're supposed to take care of us and love us not try to kill us and turn us into creatures from hell.

Lee turned to Alex she looked determined, more so than usual, the rebels were looking at them both, waiting for the go ahead to leave and take them out of the lab. Lee said "ok lets go, but what about them", he tilted his head towards his parents who were looking at them and probably trying to take in what was going on. Alex turned and looked at Chris, he knew what she was meaning but he diodn't want to kill them in cold blood, especially in front of their kids, Chris said "lets just get outta here, they'll get whats coming to them eventually". Chris and the others turned to leave, Alex was about to walk out the door, she turned back adn walked over to Robert, he looked at her and said "you have a destiny...why do you choose to ignore that". Alex stepped forward "I don't care about the destiny, find someone else to turn into a monster". Robert looked at Jane then back at Alex "you won't get away, I won't rest until I finish what I started". Alex drew her fist back and hit out at Robert, he stumbled back and fell clutching his jaw, Jane knelt down beside him Lee walked over and took Alex towards the door, Robert and Jane watched as they walked calmly out, Robert held his hand up to his jaw, when the door closed he said

"lets get the cameras fixed up......this should be interesting". Jane looked confused but she went over to the screen and turned it on, she trusted her husband would not let them go away without doing something to jepordise it.
