The youngster gripped the revolver tight, raindrops sliding off the barrel and pointed it towards the advancing men; he could never take them all before they tore him to pieces. The barely turned 15 hesitated, shaking slightly.
"Drop the Gun!" The leader of the armed squad shouted
"No!" The youngster screamed back more determined than ever.
The lead raised his hand to his helmet holding the assault rifle in one hand. Lights flashed on the inside of the leader's visor.
"Target is non-compliant, requesting instructions…Move in"
The youngster cocked the gun and brought it up to his temple.
"Don't move! I swear I'll do it! Ill blow my brains all over the God Damn Wall!"
"Stand Down…Target is threatening to harm self, requesting instructions…Roger"
A tear slid down the youngster's cheek, accompanied by drops of rain falling from his Straw coloured hair. A sharp pain hit him in the neck, making him drop the gun, his vision blurred and he reached up to see what had hit him, his fingers came in contact with a thick sticky liquid, blood, he pulled what had hit him out, a green substance filled dart. He uneasily turned around to the direction he had been hit from. A sniper, a flash, a piercing pain, he had been hit again, a cylinder protruding from his chest. The blurriness was worse and he fell unconscious, but felt himself being pushed to the floor and being zip cuffed.
The coldness woke him; he was strapped down onto a harsh metal table, spotlights shone in his face. A voice drifted through the darkness, it was deep and rough but slightly calming. He could tell it was an android
"Subject Name: Velum Kraxxon
Ability: Psyche
Age: 15
Status: Stable"
A warm hand brushed over Velum's unclothed torso, and a pain shot through his body as the dart was removed.
Another voice spoke, softer than other, definitely human.
"I find it hard to believe someone so young and fragile could be so dangerous"
Dangerous me, how? I haven't hurt anybody, they where the ones who came after me. Thoughts flashed through Velum's head, like Vehicles on a motorway.
"Sedative wearing off, administering Faredar" Said the android, Faredar was a common muscle relaxant and sleep inducer. Velum felt a prick in his arm and he closed his eyes falling into a dream filled slumber.
Velum woke to a commotion in the corridor outside and found he was unstamped. He sat up and swung his legs off the table, the cold biting at his naked torso. He slowly made his way to the door and twisted the knob, and pushed the door open. The scene that met him was gruesome bodies where strewn about the corridor, blood running like a river. Various weapons lay about and a door hung on its hinges, right in the middle of the carnage was a bat like creature, lapping up the blood. The creature looked up and saw Velum. It began to walk towards him and slowly it sped into a run. Velum put his hand out to try and stop the creature from hitting him, suddenly Velum's mind throbbed and the creature stopped and dropped to its Knees and howled with pain.
Did I do that?
Slowly the creature began to twist and turn and began to shrink, its bat-like features deteriated until there crouched on his knees was a young Romanian, wearing only underwear, he was defiantly older than Velum.
