The Lab/Experimentation

Rain kept slipping in and out of consciousness. Everytime she woke up and opened her eyes, she would get hit by pain, feel just a prick on her arm and slip unconscious again. She needed help.

Alice opened her eyes and almost immediately shut them again. She had no idea how long she had been out, but she guessed about 2/3 hours. The room she was in was bright white, so bright it hurt her eyes. Finally, she opened her eyes and let them adjust to the brightness of the room. She looked down there were wires all over her and tubes were sticking into her arms. She had no clothes on except for a paper sheet, wrapped around her body. She looked up and saw a window in the door, the corridor behind it was empty. Her clothes were lying on a chair in the far corner. She pulled off the wires and then pulled out the tubes, wincing as she did so. Then, she walked over to her clothes and put them on.

'I've got to go and find Rain and Matt' she thought, as she walked over to the door, it was key card locked and there was no keypad on the inside. They certainly didn't want her escaping. She looked through the window, there was a scientist coming down the corridor. She hid next to the door and waited. He looked through the glass and saw the empty table, wires and tubes hanging abandoned. He quickly got out his key card and put it in the keypad, it made a beep sound and the door swung open, he walked in and Alice kicked him in the face, she whacked him on the back of the neck, knocking him out. She dragged him inside, grabbed his key card and left the room, closing the door behind her. She crept along the corridors looking for Matt and Rain, avoiding scientists and lab workers. Finally, she found Rain's room. She peered inside, there was Rain, unconscious on a table. There were lots of scientists and lab workers, a couple had masks on and were doing something to Rain. Then suddenly, Alice realised what they were doing. They were experimenting.

They were experimenting on Rain! She couldn't believe it, she had to get Rain out of there but there were way too many in there to take out on her own. She would need help. She needed Matt. She took one last look at Rain, which just made her more determined to find Matt.

She ran off down the corridor looking for Matt. At the end of the next corridor she found him. There was no-one in his room, so she looked around and slid the key card she had taken into the slot, there was a beep as the door unlocked and it swung open. She ran to his side and began to unhook him from the wires and tubes that were covering his body. He stirred slightly, opened his eyes and sat bolt up right when he saw Alice.

"Alice! What's going on? Where's Rain?"

"Come on! I need your help, Rain's in trouble."

Rain Ocampo lay on the table as they began making incisions on her body. They were testing drugs on her, finding out the symptoms of the bites she had endured and other treatments. "You know..." one doctor said "if it hadn't been for this girl, we would never got to test half these things". Another doctor nodded, "I know"

"She's waking up"

"Well sedate her again already; we're half way through an experiment."

The lab assistant nodded and opened a new syringe of sedative; Rain opened her eyes and saw the people around her. The assistant flicked the needle and squirted a tiny amount of the liquid out. Then pain hit her and she screamed before she was injected and slipped unconscious again.

Matt was just finishing pulling his clothes on.

"We've gotta get a move on"

"Right let's go"

They ran out of the room and Alice lead the way to Rain's room. They crouched beneath the window and Matt looked in.

"Are they doing what I think they're doing?"

"If you're thinking that they're experimenting on her, then yes."

"Those fucking bastards, I'll kill them!"

"Keep it down, look we've gotta wait because if we surprise them they might hurt Rain."

"Okay"

Alice looked through the window, "Okay, it looks like they're just finished with their latest little test, so we go on 3. 1...2...3..."

Alice slid the card in the mechanism and the beep sounded, all the scientists looked over as Matt and Alice ran through the doorway. Alice took down two immediately and Matt ran forward taking out the guys as he went, trying to get to Rain. Finally, after a lot of fighting they were all either dead or unconscious, Matt finished kicking the last one's head in and came over to Alice who was trying to wake Rain, they're were incisions on her body, they hadn't even patched up her bites, in fact it looked like they had been opening them up more and exploring the wounds. And there were more tubes in her arms than they had and some of them looked like they weren't having the nicest effects.

"Rain?...Rain?..." Alice stroked her cheek, "Come on Rain, wake up." She stirred, "Rain?" She opened her eyes and looked at Alice and Matt, "Alice? Matt?" Matt took one of her hands, "That's right, we're here." Then the pain hit her, "Ahh!" She looked down and saw all the incisions over her body, "What the fuck did they do to me?! Those fucking bastards" She tried to sit up and began pulling all the wires and tubes off her body, "Rain!" Alice shouted, trying to calm her down, she grabbed her hands and held them in hers; Rain looked up at her, "Calm down okay? I promise you can kick their bloody arses for what they've done to you, but you've got to calm down first." Rain nodded and looked down at her body again. Matt spoke up, "Come on, let's patch you up, get you dressed and out of here." Rain nodded.

Soon Rain was on her feet and patched up, they were all creeping down the corridor hoping to find an exit. They paused on the entrance to one room where there was two men inside talking, they paused and listened.

"I want to re-open the hive; I want to know what happened down there."

"But what about those things down there?"

"They'll be dead by now."

Rain gasped, "Alice we've got to stop them, they have no idea what they're dealing with."

"I know"

Well what do you think, I hope u like it! Please review it and give me ideas, they will be much appreciated. A suggested Matt/Rain relationship?
