(Normal POV)
Maria had Mr.s Amy take her to the apartment she was placed in by the social worker agency for her safety, packing all her belongings she took the time to say her final goodbyes to the place she somewhat called home.
Putting the last suitcase she has packed into the back trunk Maria go into the car and Mrs. Amy started heading towards the destination of the address Professor Broom has given her to the bureau.
Maria took the chance to pull out her phone and plug in her head phones, placing them into her ears she started playing her playlist to drown out the noise of the car and to space off into her own mind.
Hey, beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful angel. Know your imperfections every angle.
Tomorrow comes and goes before you know, so I just had to let you know.
The way that Gucci look on you amazing, but nothing can compare to when you're naked. Now a backward into many got you faded, saying that you don't want from me I need to face it.
Maria hummed to the lyrics and placed her head against the cool feel of the passenger window, listening to music always helped clear her head from unwanted thoughts if only it can help without needing to actually listen to it.
Oh my God, where did the time go? I wish the hours would go slow, how is it six am? Your touch is heaven-sent. Beautiful beautiful sight right now, beautiful beautiful life right now.
...
I thank God and my lucky stars.
Darling, don't you know what you are? Yeah baby you are..
Continuously humming to the song Maria wondered what was going to await for her when meeting with Professor Broom and the others that are supposedly with the B.P.R.D, hopefully not everyone is like the others people she's encountered before.
As the drive went on for awhile and the playlist kept going Maria was about halfway to dozing off, that is till Amy tapped her arm causing her to sit up right in her seat and wiping the small drool that was starting to form down her lip.
"This is the place?" She asked while looking out the window to a gated building, it looked like more of a factory than a top secret facility.
"Yep this is it, I believe so..." Amy said no entirely sure, pulling up the gate she rolled down her window to press the buzzer to let them in.
"What do you want?" A voice asked annoyed like from the speaker, Maria raised a brow at the attitude coming from the unknown person.
"Umm excuse my name's is , I'm a psychiatrist for Maria Santago, Professor Broom requested our arrival." She stated, in a split second the buzzer flipped open to some kind of scanning device.
"Have the girl scan her eyes..come on don't have all day." The voice yelled from the speaker, Maria unbuckled her seat belt and leaned over to stick her head out the drivers window to place her eye against the metal piece.
A bright light scanned across her eyes causing her to lose sight a bit, instantly all her information was displayed on the small screen and the gates started to open.
"There you and have a good day". The voice said sarcastically, Maria sat back in her seat and muttered prick under her breath.
(Maria's POV)
We pulled into a parking space and placed the car, getting out of the passenger side I shut the door and went to the back trunk to grab my belongings. Placing my duffle bag over my shoulder I had my suit case in my other hand and used it to help shut the trunk closed.
Turning around I waited till Amy got whatever she needed and began heading towards the front entrance of the building, following right behind when going inside I started looking around.
It almost looked like the inner structure of a bank, all marbel and polished unlike how it appears from outside. Looking at the floor as we were walking I noticed some sort of large symbol on the middle of the floor.
"You must be Mrs. Santago, you two were supposed to be here ten minutes ago." A man called out causing us both to stop in our tracks, looking from beside Amy I saw a man in a suit stand at a front desk.
He must be security..geeze it looks like there's not even anyone else here.
"Yes sorry we had to get some stuff for her before coming here..um is Professor Broom coming to.." began to ask but was rudely interrupted by the prick.
"Mr. Broom is waiting for you two in the study, please stay still and watch your arms and elbows." He said while motioning his hand behind the desk, I was confused by his remark.
"Excuse me..what do you mean watch for our.." I began asking but then felt the vibration coming from underneath us and looked down to see the floor starting to lower us down into the ground.
I watched in amazement as we went lower into the floor and seeing what was secretly below this building. It seemed that this place whatever it was went deeper and had lots of built in buildings into the core depth of the earth.
"What the hell is this place?" I asked in awe at what I was seeing, this was something you'd see in secret government spy movies.
As we finally made it to the end of the parcher I was the first to step off the metal floor , Mrs. Amy soon followed right beside as we made our way towards what looked to be a hallway into a room.
"This looks to be the study that man told us about.." Amy stated, placing my duffle and suitcase against a small couch I took it upon myself to explore our surroundings.
" There's so many artifacts in here, you think these are all real?" I questioned looking closely at one that seemed very fascinating.
"Yes most of the artifacts you see here are real." A voice answered from out of no where, standing straight up I turn to look at Amy because knowing how she sounds that wasn't her who spoke.
"Tell me you heard that to right?" I asked her, she nodded in response.
I turned my head in the other direction of the room and realized that it looked to be a huge aquarium inside the walls of the bookshelf, curious I walked over and peered inside to see what kind of dishes are inside.
To my disappointment there didn't look to be even anything inside the empty tank, groaning I turned around to look over at Amy.
"What kind of guy owns an aquarium without any damn fish in it?" I said , she looked like she was about to say something till a look of shock and terror spread across her face.
"M..Maria behind you." She uttered out in a whisper, turning around to see what was going on with her I came face to face to what was causing her to look terrified.
"Holy shit what the hell is that thing?!" I yelled in fright, just by my reaction my hands started engulfing in electrical shocks to defend myself and Amy.
"What what Madam's please calm down, I don't mean to cause you to be distraught or scared." The fish looking man said while placing his hands up in surrender, I still looked at the him or whatever it was questionably.
"What the hell are you?" I asked, Mrs. Amy came up right behind me.
"My name is Abraham Sapien, born in Langdon Everett Caul. I am one of the the monster agents working with the B.P.R.D., you must be Maria Santago." It said, my brows shifted and I felt the shocking sensation stop from my hands.
"Yes that's me..how did you know my name?" I questioned him.
"Abe has a unique gift of Telepathy, he can touch and know everything there is to know at a person or object of being." A familiar voice said from behind, turning around there stood Professor Broom standing against the table desk with a pleased smile on his face.
"Oh well that's good to know..." I said, making a mental note to never let his thing touch me.
"Professor Broom sorry to keep you waiting and everything." Mrs. Amy said while getting rid of her nervous gitters from moments ago and went over to shake his hand.
"No need to fret my dear, I must say that's quite a amazing amount of electrical energy your able to produce Maria." He said then looked over at me, couldn't help but feel unaware to feel about his comment I just placed my hand into my pocket and looked away from his gaze.
About few minutes into listening to those two talk I was trying to occupy myself with reading one of the historical books from the bookshelves, it was a really long book but so far I found it really interesting of a read.
"Ahh that one I've read numerous of times, I believe you'll take a real interest in the historical knowledge it holds." Abraham said from between the thick glass between us, looking back I gave him a quick smile and turned back to continue reading.
"I understand if you're not comfortable with my being yet, but I do hope with time we'll get to know each other very well." He said, I slightly glanced back at him.
"I would like that, by any chance is there anymore people like you that I should know?" I asked, that way knowing now I won't have another heart attack.
Before I could get a response Professor Broom interrupted, looking away and towards where he was he stood about a few inches away and had Mrs. Amy along side him.
"Well Maria we discussed the conditions you made with Mrs. Amy with you staying and I will hold on to my promise if you don't feel comfortable with being here you are free to leave whenever you may like." He said with honesty in his voice, smiling I placed the book on the desk beside where I was sitting and went to stand in front of them both.
"Alright...when do I meet the others I'll be with?" I questioned, Broom smiled and pressed against his tie to push something.
"Clay tell everyone to meet in the study right away, there's someone new here to be introduced too." He said , looking back at Abraham I saw that he had a kind smile.
Oh what did I get myself into?
