Heya~ I know this update took me a 'BIT' longer than should be accepted, but I was a bit occupied with my new DA account (I go by the same name) and my JtHM fic, 'Lights Out'. I'm also working on a 'Slender Man' fic, but it's, uh... 'different' from most Slendy fics. XD So those are my excuses for taking so dang long to update! :D
Here, there is a REVEALATION! Basically, it tells us how El and Georgie get out! Enjoy!
Elinor was about to get up and move, before a hand tugged at her torn-up sleave. She sharply turned her head to face her stopper, to see Skull Boy's face.
"No," he said, "I want to hear the rest of the story. We know where you came from and we know how you and Georgia met; you just can't end the story there!"
Elinor opened her mouth to protest, but was cut off by Len's voice.
"Yeah!" he said, backing up Skull Boy, "We wanna know!"
Ruby gave Len a look that was humorous and exasperated at the same time (Shared by Len), before looking to Elinor with big pleading eyes. Elinor groaned inwardly.
"Fine," she sighed.
"Woo!" Skull Boy, Frank and Len cheered.
"On with the story!" Frank encouraged.
Elinor sat back down in the same position she had been a few seconds ago, took a moment to remember where she was up to, and resumed the story.
...
As you can imagine, I was shocked and surprised just as much as the scientists were about Georgia's sudden outburst. Unlike last time, when things had gone unexpectedly well, I couldn't help but dwell on the recent events. It was more than obvious she got on with the scientists much worse than I did.
It seemed as though they noticed it, too. Now they were studying me more than ever; recording my behaviours, examining my thought patterns and reactions to different things... Honestly, it was like they had forgotten the whole prospect of personal space. Not that they had any idea of it to begin with, I guess.
But now, they were talking to me. Not like I was an intelligent being though; it was more like how you would treat a dog, or a guinea pig. They talked with me extremely slowly and loudly as if I had an IQ of, like, 30. Eventually they started talking more quickly and using bigger words with me, and they were encouraging me to talk back, as well. I don't know why I almost never complied; maybe it was because Georgia was the only one I had spoken openly to.
Speaking of, I had heard from multiple conversations between the scientists that Georgia was showing more and more signs of humanoid intelligence. However, her instinct to kill and her wild and untamed way of thinking hadn't changed one bit. If anything, she was becoming more rebellious; a serious problem.
And we all know what scientists do when an animal becomes a problem.
Of course, I had no idea that was what they were planning on doing to her. I merely assumed they were going to start zapping her with a higher frequency, or something. No idea...
About a month had passed, and the scientists were starting to treat me like an actual human being. They talked to me like anyone would in a normal conversation, but I didn't usually respond with an answer that consisted of more than about four words. Still, they were able to see that I was smart; I just didn't talk much.
Then it happened.
I was asleep. I can't remember what I was dreaming at the time, only that I was suddenly awakened by someone forcibly shaking my bed. I sat up in my bed, and let my eyes adjust to the darkness. When I was able to see, the first thing that came into view...
Was Georgia.
"Niccce girl!" she said with her freakishly big smile. "Come with me!"
I just stared at her. When I got over the initial shock, I asked, "How did you get out of your room?"
"I fought my way!" she laughed crazily.
I felt like a block of ice had just landed in my stomach.
"You mean..." I stuttered, silently begging to not get the answer I feared, "You mean, you... killed the guards?"
Georgia giggled darkly before replying.
"What does kill mean?"
I didn't have time to answer, because just then red lights began flashing and an alarm sounded.
'All inhabitants be alert! Five security guards have been found dead in hall number 7, floor 2! All inhabitants be alert!'
Before I was able to react, Georgia had snatched my arm and was shooting off through the door and out the hallway. I started shouting and snarling, and even tried to claw her. I managed to force her to face me, and I slashed across her stomach. She screeched in pain, and I bolted. I was pelting on all fours, and was tempted to try and fly within the confined space.
I rounded a corner and stopped dead. In front of me were at least twenty guards, all armed. One of them saw me, and shouted to the rest. They all turned on me, and pointed their guns.
I honestly thought that was the end of me. They thought I was the one who had killed the other guards...
But, as luck would have it, I wasn't killed. Well, no duh.
Georgia had been right on my tail, and she roared as she streamed past me. The next thing I saw wasn't exactly... pretty. I'll spare the details.
One guy was left, and he had managed to pin Georgia to the wall. He had his big, muscular hand around Georgia's small neck, and her face was going blue. She looked at me with her wide eyes, and for the first time, I saw something else that wasn't a desire to destroy. She looked scared. And she was pleading me for help.
...
I'm not proud of what I did next. I am really not proud.
I'll make it short; we both escaped that night. I don't know if that guy died. All I did was punch him as hard as I could in the back of the head. He fell to the floor like a brick, and Georgia and I managed to get away.
Didn't see THAT comin', did ya? ;)
Hope you enjoyed that, as usual!
Ruby Gloom doesn't belong to me, and neither do the rest of the characters.
I own Elinor, Georgia, and the laboratory they were trapped in (but not Australia, obviously XD)
See ya!
