Chapter Thirteen: The Lab
Rebecca looked round the lab with interest, it had a lot of complicated experiments lying around that she would never have dreamed of trying. Jill shivered at an unknown presence and stepped behind Barry, afraid of something she couldn't see and that wasn't like her. "So nice of you to drop in" a horribly familiar voice said "I'd offer you tea but my hands are rather tied at the moment." They all turned see Alison smiling a mad and evil smile holding a test tube with a green coloured liquid in it
"The antidote!" Jill whispered and then spoke louder "give that to us and you won't get hurt!"
"Love to but I'm afraid I can't do that, I've got a lot more important things to do…like finishing summoning Him"
"You're mad! The Devil doesn't exist!" Jill shouted and dived at Alison. The woman quickly moved out the way and Jill went flying into a table. Alison hurried over to the metal table and grabbed what was left of the baby; she threw it into a hole in the floor filling with a boiling substance. Everyone waited anxiously to see what would happen…nothing. Alison blinked "what went wrong, it should have worked! I followed the ancient papers so carefully…where is He?" Barry frowned, ran over and grabbed her "don't you get it? You either did it wrong or He never existed at all…or didn't want to show!" Alison wriggled free and tried to run but Rebecca tripped her "hand us the antidote, Alison!" She said sharply and held out her hand
"Never!" Alison threw it toward where she had dropped the baby; Jill cried out and flew through the air to catch it…she made it by seconds. Alison screamed in frustration and pulled herself to her feet drawing out her gun, an Uzi pistol "prepare to die!" She yelled and opened fire, Barry ran out of the firing line and hid behind an overturned table. Alison pointed her gun at Rebecca who had frozen "move Rebecca!" Jill cried but she didn't have too, through the door burst Snapdragon who turned right away on her mother. "No!" Alison yelped but was thrown roughly into a corner, a cut appeared on her forehead "no Snapdragon, I created you! I made you what you are! Nooo!" Snapdragon brought her claws down slicing her mother in two. She roared in delight and swung her giant fists round smashing the lab; without warning an electric cable suddenly fell and hit the monster. A horrid human like scream came from the monsters mouth, Jill rushed forward throwing the antidote over her, Snapdragon shrank and morphed until she was human but collapsed in a heap on the fool. Jill ran to help her "no, Jill!" Barry said dashing over "if you touch her you'll probably get electrocuted as well." Jill groaned, it had been painful enough watching the cable hit her but it was harder knowing she couldn't do anything. Snapdragon's breathing grew weaker until her heart stopped altogether, she was dead. "Come one, Jill" Rebecca said putting her arm round her "let's get out of here" The ground began the shake, the building was falling apart! Snapdragon was done a lot of damage while she had been chasing them and had knocked down many walls that supported the house and the damage to the lab was too much for it. Barry ran up the part of the body of Alison and searched her pockets "got it!" He said triumphantly and held up a key for the locked door. They ran out of the lab and down the corridor and they soon reached the door they came in by, Barry fumbled with the key in the door "hurry Barry" Rebecca urged as a large piece of rock fell nearby. Barry finally got the door open and they ran up the stairs and through the kitchen. Jill got to the front door first and kicked it open, they got outside just as the house collapsed…but why weren't people coming out the investigate? "No…not again" Barry said feeling sick, when Alison had realised the gas it had crept out into the city once again, the residents were now the living dead…
More to come, sorry this is so short!
