A/N: Thanks for all of the reviews. This chapter is short too, hopefully the next one will be longer.
Chapter 2: Karma
It has been forty-nine minutes since the first procedure. Screams of agony echoed through the Olduvai Research Station as Curtis Stahl slowly and quite painfully turned into, what could only be described as, a ... monster. The three leading doctors in Project X stood around the holding cell watching half in horror, half in fascination as the test subject continually mutated before their very eyes, while in another sector of the research station Faith sat in her cell. Hearing the screams slowly turn into roars of anger, Faith tilted her head up to watch the scientists that were standing around her cell. Screams of terror filled the air causing the scientists to leap into action. They scurried out of the room intending to investigate the mingling of the screams and the roar.
"As I said karma." Faith whispered to herself. Running her creamy pale fingers through her pitch black hair that fell in waves to the middle of her back, this was what she was waiting for. Looking up at the chain hanging from the ceiling, that was her way out. If only she could reach it. Glancing around the holding cell looking for something to help her reach the chain, her eyes landed on the monitor off to the side.
Pulling to the monitor until it was right under the dangling chain Faith carefully got on top of it. The first try she manage to touch the cool metal, but wasn't able to grab a hold of the chain. Falling, she landed on the grated floor her right hand being sliced by a sharp edge. The pain of wound only lasted a moment before it was gone. Looking down at her hand she was shocked to find that there was no wound just leftover traces of blood. Her eyebrows knitted in confusion as she quickly wiped the blood off on the white bed sheet. Pushing the subject to the back of her mind, she focused on escaping. She would figure out what the hell was going on later.
After a few tries Faith was able to successfully grab the chain and climb out of the holding cell. The screams grew louder with every passing second, it was like the scientists were being massacred. Serves them right for playing God. Her black heeled boots landed on the grated floor with a metallic thump, Faith looked around for any sign of movement. Hearing a sound from the outside hallway caused Faith the instinctively reach for he weapons, upon grabbing nothing she mentally cursed. Ducking into a corner she blended into the shadows just as the rooms doors opened with a whoosh.
"We need to make it to the service entry!" one of the doctors exclaimed as he ran around the holding cell with another scientist following close behind him. Once they passed Faith calmly stepped out of the shadows. Her black crop style leather bustier and form fitting black leather pants made her blend in so well with the shadows as if it was apart of her, the only thing that separated he was her pale skin and icy blue eyes.
"Time to retrieve my weapons." she whispered quietly walking out of the holding cell room.
A/N: Review. Next chapter enters the R.R.T.S.
