Chapter 13

I was dragged out of my cage a few hours ago. I was chained by every appendage I had, to a steel chair that was even bolted to the floor. Heck, did they forget I was a little kid? What did they think I was going to do to get out of this? Oh wait, they had seen me rip a Hound to shreds without even touching it, maybe that was why they were being so cautious.

But they didn't know I wouldn't use my special powers anymore. Surely I would be able to defeat or stop them by doing something else. I didn't need that deadly side of me……. Did I?

I glared as the Wing Beaters came in through the doors dragging Jethro and Azra by their shirts. They looked beaten to a pulp, yet Azra still smiled as she saw me strapped down. She was trying to put on a brave face, yet her lips were trembling and her hands where clenched white. Jethro looked at me and rolled his eyes.

"Well kiddies are we all ready to play? This is going to be just like a play date, only I'll be the one having fun." Lash said as he pressed buttons on a control panel.

A type of human sized tube slowly came up from the floor with a hiss. It was like a giant test tube, I nearly expected to see a growing baby mutant inside it. But it was empty.

What the heck was going on? A few more scientist and Wing Beaters came in. As well as a man in military clothing who walked right up to me and looked at me with a cynical eye.

"You better be worth the money I paid to make you the best damn weapon ever." He said in a dry voice as he walked up to Lash, who was holding Azra, and whispered something into his ear. Lash grinned and nodded eagerly.

"Hey Maxie girl. If you ever remember anything in your useless life remember this. Its ALL your fault." Lash said cheerfully. And with what seemed to be a simple flick of his wrist he threw Azra into the container as the top sealed shut on itself trapping her in.

Where they going to suffocate her??

"You have around three minutes to save her, use you're psychic abilities like you did to rip up one of those dogs. Come on now, show us what you got or the little experiment will die."I spun my head away to quickly look at Azra, there was nothing unusual, the tube was empty and she was silently banging on the glass. Then I glanced down when I saw something shimmer. There was water, they were slowly filling it up with water, they were going to fill it up. Thy were going to drown her.

"No stop!" I shouted and struggled by my chains. A thought occurred to me, Jethro was doing nothing, he was standing there and he wasn't even chained or being held back. It was as though he was watching this of his own free will. Azra's pounding fists became more frantic as the water reached her knees and seemed to rise faster. "Jethro do something." He turned to look at me and instead of trying to stop this went over and leaned against the wall next to Lash.

"I'm going to survive, I'm going to be a Wing Beater." His voice was dull, empty of any emotion, he had changed in a few short hours into a mindless puppet.

I tried to find that special thing in my mind that allowed me to do incredible things. But it wasn't there, as though it had moved or was just under layers. The machined that were hooked up to me started beeping erratically. I was running out of time, the water was up to Azra's chest. I pushed deeper into my mind, feeling pain nearly blacken my vision. My chest hurt as quick short breaths ripped through my throat.

Azra screamed an shouted. No. I promised her I would get her out, I would keep her safe. I couldn't break that promise already. No she couldn't die, not her as well. Tears fell down my face as she began to tread water and push her face up to the top of the tank to catch her breath before the water rushed to fill in the last of the gap. She was completely submerged.

My mind lashed out at me and I flinched, but at the same time a crack formed in the glass. My eyes widened and I could hear the murmurs of the scientists and constant beeping of machines. Come on a little more. I thought to myself as I literally pulled against my own brain, I felt blood drip down my nose and threw a type of invisible barrier at the glass. Cracks formed and leaks began to drip, but it wasn't enough. Azra couldn't hold her breath and existentially took a breath in. Water flooded her lungs and she started to thrash whilst floating in the water. She was drowning and suffocating at the same time. It was terrible to watch as her back arched and she clawed at her own throat. In fear, anger and pure desperation I yanked harshly on my mind and more cracks blistered across the surface of the glass. A red light began to flash on the beeping machines and a huge warning sign appeared on the screen.

"She's haemorrhaging!" I heard a scientist frantically call out.

I paid no attention. Azra's movement was slowing to sluggish attempts. I mustered the last of my energy and threw whatever I could at the glass. I heard a smash and water and glass burst everywhere. Azra slumped to floor coughing, retching and wheezing. She was shaking and couldn't even push herself up on trembling arms, just curled into the fetal position. I heard one last constant droning beep as the energy or force, or whatever I had thrown at the tube, rebounded back and hit me, shaking the chains, rattling my teeth and practically scorching my mind. Everything went numb and black.
