Chapter Three: Memories in 1999 (Part Three)
She was at the emergency room. She suddenly saw mitochondria cats. She switched Gunblade to M16A1. She shot them quickly as possible. Once they're dead, she saw two people. She approached them slowly. As she went near them, the patient was getting freaked out. "I don't know about you two," Said the patient, "but I'm getting outta here!" She slowly walked away. "Mrs. Vale," Said the doctor, "what about your medication?" "It's no use if I'm gonna die now!" She answered. She walked out through the doors. Sonika turned to the doctor. "Are you alright ma'am?" She asked. "Yes, thank you." Answered the doctor, "However, a nurse is trapped in the other room. Could you please help me out?" "Of course." She answered. She went near the door, opened it and then went inside.
Inside, she saw something familiar. She went near. "This room…" She said, "This looked familiar…" She suddenly felt her body getting hot and her head in pain. "What's happening?!" She said as she knelt down slowly, "I…know this is familiar…but…why can't I remember…why…?! What was it…?"
Then the flashback started once more. In 1999, in that room where she was standing, it was deserted. Then there was Jinita on the left. Then there was Sonika on the right and a doctor in front of them. Then Jinita was gone, only the doctor and Sonika remained. The scene changed to the hallway then to the customer service then to the entrance.
The flashback ended.
She slowly stood up then saw the nurse. She went near her. "Are you alright?" She asked. "Yes, I thought I was done for." Said the nurse, "Thank you." "You're welcome," She said, "but could you help me even more by telling me where the doors next to the elevators lead?" "To the storage areas of Zerica…that's where we keep oxygen tanks and our main supply of liquid nitrogen." She answered. "What do you use liquid nitrogen for?" She asked. "I really don't know," She answered, "but take this green card key and find out for yourself." She handed the green card to her then left. She went back to the emergency room then to the service area.
She suddenly saw three figures from afar. She went to the corridors to see who's there. As she went near, it's Cream, Rouge, wearing a patient outfit, and the doctor. "Sonika!" Cream shouted. She went near then hugged her. "Hi Cream." She said. "So this is yours?" Asked the doctor. She turned to the doctor. "No," She answered, "she's a friend of mine." She turned to Cream. "So how are Rouge and your eye sight?" She asked. "Well, my eye sight is coming back and Rouge is a bit dizzy." She answered. Sonika turned to the doctor. "I have a question." She said. "What is it?" Asked the doctor. "Can you tell me why the hospital uses liquid nitrogen?" She said. "Well, you can use it to freeze off warts, but its main use for research. It keeps the sperm bank from spoiling." The doctor answered. Then her eyes shrink when she heard 'sperm bank.' "SPERM BANK?!" She reacted, "Oh no…how do I turn it off?" "There's a valve that you can turn off in the storage area." Answered the doctor, "Why?" "I don't have time to explain, sorry…" She answered. She turned to Cream. "Cream," She said, "once Rouge's dizziness is gone, you two go outside. If you see a black and red hedgehog and a green hedgehog, you stay with them. They're my friends." "Alright Sonika." She said. She turned to the doctor. "Where is it located?" She asked. "The thirteenth floor." The doctor answered. "Thanks…" She said. The doctor left. She got the green card then slid it. The door in front of her opened. She placed the green card on the floor. She went through the doors.
She went to the door next to where she entered. She was at the storage area. She went inside to find the valve. She saw it then turned it. "I think it's off…" She said in her thoughts. She stepped outside then went to the corridors. She went to the elevator then went inside. She selected to the thirteenth floor. The elevator started. Few seconds later, it stopped. The doors opened then went out. She went to the door, few inches away from the elevator. She opened it then went inside.
Inside, she saw mitochondria cat and lizard. She got out M16A1 then started to shoot. The mitochondria cat was down, but the lizard got few shots. It started to strike, making it difficult for her to reload ammo. She started to panic a little. "Don't come any close!" She warned. She closed her eyes then pointed her gun to the lizard. Energy suddenly appeared from her gun then she shoot at it then it died. She opened her eyes then saw its body burned. "Did I do it again…?" She asked to herself. She looked at the gun. "Is this from me or the gun…?" She asked again. She loaded the gun then placed it back on her belt pocket. She looked at the chest then opened it. It was another gun. She picked it up. "This is a G3A3." She said. She examined it. "It looks like it had some ammo here." She said to herself, "I'd better keep this." She placed it on her belt pocket.
She suddenly saw a sign on the wall. She approached it slowly. "OPEN/CLOSE: Door to the Research Kennel." She read. She suddenly got confused. "What does it mean by that?" She asked. Then she saw something from behind the small desk. She pushed it away then saw a button. She pushed it then heard a click. She walked in to see. She suddenly saw the door next to the large desk open. She went in then was at the corridors to the kennel.
