Chapter 7

Connie

Peterson made her way over to the chair and sat down slowly. She looked completely calm, big mistake. "What is your question, Connie?"

"What were we made for?" I didn't hesitate, I knew I only had a few minutes or I would get caught. Drew specifically told me 'Fine, go back, find out what the hell we are. But make it quick, if you get caught, its over for all of us.'

"You personally, or all of you?" Great she was stalling.

"Both." I answered.

"All of you are a part of a program to help…correct the world." What the hell was that supposed to mean.

"What's wrong with the world, why does it need correcting?"

"The world that I grew up in is unstable and unsafe. Great minds go to waste because they don't have the correct stimulation to achieve bigger things. Not to mention those who are useless are not gotten rid of, but assisted, wasting more resources." She made it sound like the facility was heaven and the real world would kill us the moment we stepped foot in it.

"How are you planning to use us to 'correct' it?"

"You were made to assist in the extermination of those useless to humanity and to help correct future members of the world."

"Wanna put that in stupid teenager form for me?"

"Your job was going to be to kill criminals, and physically or mentally handicapped people. Not to mention the research that was put to work making you, has been making superhuman children. They will take the place of those killed. Overall making the world a better, well function place." WHAT! Kill helpless people! I mean the criminals im fine with, but people who cant help be the way they are. This place is more fucked up than I could ever imagine.

"You're a freak! What's wrong with you people?" I screamed at her

"Connie you don't understand the importance of this….." I jumped over the desk and put my hand around her throat, and banged her head against the wall.

"No, your right I don't understand, but what I do know it that your fucked up bad."

She grabbed my hand to try and get air but I just squeezed, and then released so she could talk again.

"Last question, what are we." I starred straight into her eyes that I could see were filled with fear.

"Wouldn't you like to know?" She said in a sarcastic tone. So I just banged her head against the wall again.

"Ready to answer me yet, what are we?" I smiled. Fuck I've only got two minutes, answer me bitch. But she said nothing just looked at me and smiled, then let her head drop.

"Your not answering my question doctor Peterson!" I screamed and banged her head against the wall for the third time. I could tell that she was in sever pain and might pass out soon, but she never stopped when I was in the same situation, so I just continued with my interrogation.

"For the third time what are we!" I had a firm grasp on her throat and she could tell I was serious. But she refused to respond. I thought one final sharp bang could loosen her lips or it could kill her, either way id get something I had wanted for a very long time.

"Doctor Peterson this is your last chance, if you don't answer me im going to kill you. What are we!" I looked straight at her eyes as she lifted her head to face me.

She spoke is an almost silent whisper, one that sounded on the verge of death.

"You're a vampire Connie" and she relaxed her shoulders against the wall and passed out. Vampire, what was that a joke or something? What is a vampire?

I began to tear apart her desk drawers apart looking for anything that would give me information about us and what we were. I looked up at the clock, Fuck! 3:34 I've only got a minute. I began searching faster until I found a large folder labeled "experiments", there were also a few more tabs but I didn't have the time, so I just grabbed it and ran.

Drew

We had been running for at least ten minutes until we made it outside to the forest. We each ran out not remembering that there was a beast that could kill us at any time in here with us. We just ran in a small pack towards the right of the building, where Conn said she found the fence. Each of us felt tired as hell, but we knew that if we stopped it was gonna be bad for the rest of us. Oh, and remember that beast we forgot about, yah it was right on our heels. Lee questioned "What the hell are we supposed to do now?" I ran faster to catch up to him at his side and said "Run!" He began to speak between long breaths.

"But…that… things gonna kill us when we have to stop to break through the fence."

"No it's not." Said Eli from behind Lee

"Why wouldn't it?" questioned Maya

"Because im going to kill it." He stopped running. Maya tried to turn around to come to his aid, but I knew it was too late. I grabbed her, threw her over my shoulder and continued to run.

"Stop, Eli. Drew let me go!" Screamed Maya while kicking and screaming."Keep her safe for me you guys." Screamed Eli as we ran out of sight.

Maya continued to kick and scream until we reached the fence, when I put her down she punched me right in the eye and just walked to the fence, tore a hole and said "Aren't you ass holes coming?" We followed her through, I wasn't going to try and talk to her, I knew what I had just done was wrong. But then not just Eli, but all of us would have died. I couldn't let that happen. Im ashamed of what I did, but I don't regret it. I saved two of my family members for the price of one, who gave his life to do the same.
