Chapter 5 already, and that in just a weeks' time .
I just know that some grammar may be wobbly at points and that it may get confusing at points, so I hope you'll be able to follow it alright.

Chapter 5
Futile Resistance
A quick as she could she dashed away from the cupboard, away from the man, running blindly in a direction. Her firm leaps could be heard resounding through the empty halls, but she heard but one thing, her heartbeat.
If her situation wasn't so grim she might've wondered how a heart of her size could beat so fast, hard and loud. For the moment it seemed that if the beat would increase but a little her small heart would be on the verge of exploding. But those weren't her thoughts for the moment, she was only thinking about getting away.
Between the thumping of her heart she could hear the faint voices of alarm and soon she heard the faintest of steps approaching, when she arrived at the end of the hallway she just narrowly avoided one of the humans, dashing between its legs and throwing it off balance. She didn't bother to look back at the following scene, since the human blocked the way of several humans that were tracking behind her and she was planning on taking the biggest amount of advantage from this as she possibly could.
She found herself running down the hallways, wondering how long she would need to run to loose them, however for every human she seemed to shake off another would take its place, most likely because those left behind tended to scream a lot, most likely for reinforcements.
For the moment, she was able to outrun the humans, since humans were known for their slow reflexes and even slower speed, by the time she would run in head on towards them they wouldn't even have enough time for their brains to process a reaction to her, let alone reach out and grab her.
But her advantage was declining fast, aside from the fact that she didn't know where she needed to go and she could be very well going in circles, there was her stamina, she couldn't keep running forever and her breath was becoming gradually more ragged, breaths started to come in gasps and she started to wheeze slightly, even more so her wounded leg was starting to act up, all the running was making her small wound sting.
As she approached yet another corner her vision started to blur slightly due to the fatigue, it was no surprise that she growled slightly as another human appeared from behind the corner. Strangely enough he didn't seem to make an attempt to stop her, catch her or captivate her in any other way. He just stood there and looked down at her.
Though it was suspicious, she was willing to take the chance if the man wouldn't attempt to get her. It would make life easier now she was becoming tired. But it wasn't to be and as she was dashing to go past him, she saw a shadow coming over her and she barely had time to look up before a big net had fallen on top of her.
It had taken her by surprise, as things that came from behind tended to do, she struggled in the net, quite clumsily as she was running out of strength, she managed to look behind her, another of the human species, the one who threw the net. But it was just a net and she decided to scratch at it and bite it with whatever power she had left.
Her actions were abruptly stopped as she felt an electric shock travelling through her body, her whole body tingling all over and with a small 'ploff' she fell to the ground, she tried to move, but failed, her body not responding to her anymore. Her vision was blurring quickly, fading into darkness, above her she could see the figures of her two captors, both in their white coats, they were talking, but she couldn't focus anymore.
Just before she lost her consciousness she released a faint 'vee', which could be translated into more than one thing, depending on who interpreted it. You could say it was a faint cry of regret or her finally giving in to her fate. Another one would be a comment on de-evolved Mankey's, or even a soft cry for help. Whatever way you would interpret it, it was definite that the humans were paying no attention, as could be realized from their congratulations comments to each other.
