Hiya people! Okay, so I just got back, and although I should be doing homework I thought about all you anxious people, eagerly awaiting an update. This chapter is kinda short, but I think its okay… it might be a little unrealistic 'cause I'm not sure if Max would be able to do this or not, but that's okay. R&R!!!!!
I once again woke inside the metal room, but this time there were scientist everywhere, all studying me, touching me, hurting me. she squeezed my eyes shut as I tried to jerk them off, but they ignored my movement and continued to do whatever it was they were doing. I laid there like a statue, until I heard something I would never forget in all my life.
The scream echoed through the halls and room. My attention was instantly working on overdrive as I started to thrash around, desperately trying to get myself loose. Many scientist had to jump on top of me, along with a few Erasers as I tried to free myself. The scream had belonged to my daughter, and I had to get to her. She needed me. She was scared, and they were probably hurting her.
"LET ME GO!" I screamed as I felt the tears starting to roll down my cheeks. I started to thrash around even more as my sadness and anger took over my body.
Somehow my arms jerked through my bindings. I started to punch and kicked everyone that got near me. I got off the table, still fighting off everyone, and somehow made it to the door, pulling it open. I heard my daughter scream again, and I followed her voice to a room where she was surrounded by Erasers, all trying to take hold of her so they could probably do tests on her. Tears were streaming down her face, and that just made my anger grow. I attacked the Erasers, punching them and hitting them with things, until they finally fled, probably to get reinforcements. I ran to my daughter and pulled her into my arms, where she cried. I picked her up and ran from that room as well. It took skills to be able to avoid the Scientist and Erasers when they were looking for you, but I made it to the exit and was able to run out quickly.
My only problem was that I couldn't fly.
After the horrible fall my wings still needed to heal. Just trying to move them hurt. I had no choice but to run from the school and try my best to get away on foot. After about five hours of nonstop running I slowed to a stop, panting deeply. I sat down in some bushes and held Kismet close. She had fallen asleep, so I inspected her carefully, trying my best not to wake her. She looked to be fine, but that scream wouldn't leave me alone. I knew it would haunt me for the rest of my life. They had hurt her, if not physically then mentally, and she hadn't even done anything wrong. She would be scarred for life, just like the rest of us.
I hated to admit it, but the scientist scared the shit out of me, and I could only imagine what she would feel. She was so little, and they were huge men with needles and gadgets. She would have to be crazy not to be scared. Anyone would have to be crazy not to be scared. They were scary, mean people who didn't have the slightest feelings in their bodies. I wished they would all just die. I wanted them to die with all my heart and sole.
Especially Jeb.
That night I made a promise to myself, and to my sleeping daughter. I whispered softly into the child's eat.
"I will die before I let them touch you again…" I kissed her forehead and drifted off into a light, restless sleep.
