# Part One #
Aeris awoke from a light sleep barley aware of where she was. The room Hojo made her sleep
in was cold and sterile, the only piece of furniture was an old rusty bed. The walls where
white and there was no windows. She could feel her whole body shivering and she pulled the
thin gray Blanket tighter to her almost hugging it. She had no idea what time it was but she
assumed that Hojo would be there soon performing those horrible tests she hated so. The steps
she herd outside her room made her skin crawl, before he opened the door she already knew
who it was. The only living person that she had met for years, if you could call him a
person.in her eyes he was nothing but a monster, a cruel maniac. For some reason that she
did not understand he would not let anyone close to her except himself. As the door silently
opened and closed he stepped in wearing the same white lab coat as always , his black hair
was tied into a little ponytail at the back of his head. And on his lips lay that cold grin. He
opened his mouth and he spoke with a cold heartless tone.
"Well how is my precious specimen doing today? Stand up so I can take a look at you. And
let me see one of those beautiful smiles" he chuckled silently as he glared at her over the edge
of his glasses. If looks could kill, Then he would have been dead as a stone by now. Aeris
gritted her teeth together trying to smile as she had been instructed, but she failed miserably.
"I Do have a name." she said without even looking at him she stood up, her bare feet
touched the cold stone floor, her hazel colored hair fell just under her waist and her slim
features shivered when she stood there just wearing a thorn and stained originally white dress
some of the stains she recognized as her own blood but the other stains.she wasn't sure she
wanted to know.
"Well , Well a little touchy today?" Hojo came towards her laughing, and a glance of madness
could be seen in his dark eyes. His left hand gripped her chin and forced her to look at him.
Her forest green eyes met his black ones, his laugher had now been toned down to that cold
grin he always wore on his lips just before doing something even more horrible than he used
to. He scared her. Which was not easily done since she had seen more than many her age.
She tried to turn away from him but he held her chin in a steady grip, his strength surprised
her, how could someone who looked so skinny be so strong. He had never been this strong
before, maybe it was some sort of experiment? She did not know and honestly she did not
care, as long she made it out of there alive, she had a mission, a quest that she had to
complete. The planet. she herd it scream but over that screaming she had herd a voice, a
powerful but jet loving voice "Aeris.we need you.the planet needs you." the planet
needed her and she was not about to let it down. As she felt Hojo`s cold hand on her upper
arm she once more tried to pull away, but his grip was like iron. He started moving towards
the slide door with Aeris in his grip. He did not speak any more but the look in his eyes said it
all, this was going to hurt.
His hard grip was nothing compared to the pain she used to feel in his lab, she had only been
taken there five times under the many years she had been in captivity. Each visit had brought
her great pain and embarrassment. He had made her cry, and scream out with agony. She
really hated to cry in front of him, he never showed her the smallest of regrets, and his way of
comforting was to glare at her and laugh. She really hated that man, she knew that she
shouldn't, but she did. She knew that he was crazy, but was that really an excuse for what he
put her through? She was brought back from her thoughts to reality when she herd him
mumble something. "Centra.breed.class A."she stopped abruptly and looked at him,
without even noticing that she had stopped he continued walking forcing her to follow
through corridor after corridor. He seemed lost in thoughts. Something was wrong. For some
reason she felt like running away, she always felt like running away but something told her
that this time it was run or die. But he wouldn't, would he kill his last "specimen" as he so
nicely put it. Because as far as she knew she was the last one, the last of her race, and the
planet was calling for her. The planet really needed her.she was the last of the guardians of
the planet. After she was gone who would take care of the planet? She did not know, nor did
she had the time to care, all that mattered was to survive this new Experiment, and then gather
enough energy to run away. But could she do it? She had to! It was not like she had a
choice.Once again she was brought back to reality but this time it was Hojo who stopped,
outside a door that had a cardkey-lock on it. Hojo fished up a cardkey out of his chest pocket
and pulled it through the lock, it beeped once and then the door opened revealing the room
inside, it was not a room she had been in before, this was the worst room she had ever seen.
The walls and the floor was white except for the bloodstains, it smelled like some kind of
cleaning fluid and in the middle of the room there was a operation-table made of stainless
steal, hanging from the sides of it was leather straps that most likely was for holding the
"patient" or probably Specimen. The sight made her skin crawl and as she felt him pushing
her into the room, as he pushed she lost her balance and fell to the floor. Her growing sense of
panic took over. She would not survive he actually would kill her. Or maybe not because he
needed her, he needed her like she needed the planet, to keep them just at the edge of sanity.
If she hadn't had the planet to talk to she would have gone crazy a long time ago. Sure she
was used to the isolation and to the pain, but the fact that she did not have anyone except Hojo
to talk to was almost all she could bear, and now she was trapped in a locked room whit the
man she hated more than anything, not just because what he had done to her, but also because
what he had done to her mother and father. She did not remember much from her father's
death since she had only been a small child at the time, but Hojo had been nice enough to give
her all the details. Her mother's death on the other hand she could remember as if had
happened yesterday. The thought of it still brought tears to her eyes. "Please.take care of
Aeris." "Mother.noooooooo! I won't leave you." "But you'll have to.the planet is
calling me.but you have to stay.without you the planet is doomed ."As she heard her
mothers last words in her head, she could se her mothers beautiful face smiling at her. Aeris
whispered silently." Mother.I wont let neither you or the planet down." Hojo walked up to
her side with the usual grin on his lips and he crouched next to her." What did you say my
precious?" he laughed an evil emotionless laugh. And once again he griped her upper arm and
he pulled her to standing position just in front of him, she did not answer his question. And
she refused to look him in the eyes once again. He lifted the hand that what not holding Aeris,
he slapped her hard on the cheek and she felt the intense pain. She felt the tears burning, but
she would not about to let them go, she would not show him how much he hurt her. She
would not give him that pleasure. She closed her eyes and she could hear him laughing at her.
She could feel him pulling her closer to him, but why? He usually just took the tests and then
started the experiment ,this was taking far to long. What was he doing? She felt his cold lips
against her neck and she slowly opened her eyes. He was kissing her neck? He was kissing
her neck!!? She tried to pull away put he was still holding her so hard that she could not
escape him. She panicked she could handle the experiments. But she could not handle this.
Suddenly before she knew what she was doing her knee hit him as his most sensitive place,
not even a mad scientist could resist that pain, he crouched and that was just the amount of
time she needed to escape his grasp. She backed as far from him as she could, she watched
him as he limped towards the door. He spoke once before he disappeared." You ancient
Bitch.I will show you not to mess whit me." The door slid open and he disappeared, Aeris
sunk to the floor and covered her face whit her hands. She was crying.
