Chapter 3 –Med Lab—
Narrator...
Zim paused in this round of strangling GIR who just squealed happily at the attention. Several other aliens in other cells paused as well as another scream echoed through the halls. He wandered what creature was getting tortured now. He knew a few of the aliens in this hall had something done to them that drastically altered them. He hoped that that poor being that was getting tortured didn't have to suffer to the end.
"Yay! Torture!" GIR giggled madly startling Zim out of his thoughts.
"Shut up GIR!" Zim snarled before throwing the unit to the side. He could feel a migraine coming on as he slid down the bars of his cell rubbing his temples. He had to get out of here.
Wren's P.O.V….
I started another bout of screaming as soon as I saw the needle get closer. Two of the creatures grabbed my arms and held me still as I tried to get away. The first alien with the needle came closer and I just struggled harder trying to kick out at it. My breathing grew rapid and frantic as I felt a panic attack coming on. Fear lacing through every nerve of my body as I struggled even harder to get loose of their grip. I was mildly pleased through everything when I finally was able to land a kick to the gut of one of the scientists almost making it double over in pain. Suddenly one of the ones holding me grabbed a fist full of my hair and jerked my head back exposing my neck to the one of them.
Next thing I knew the needle pressed against my skin and then into my neck. I could feel the fluid run through my veins with an icy bite. It slowly traveled through my system and I could feel it numbing my body. They let me go seeing as I stopped struggling and I sat there dazed for a while.
The one that injected me gave me a look then spoke directly at me. "Gryant oveg noiv?"
I blinked at it and frowned. "What?"
The aliens looked disappointed for some odd reason and started talking.
"Yoi grafash dowta. Mabyr yort shoulnd ave usedt aa larggrrr dose?" one of them said.
I looked at them a little confused. "I could have sworn that I understood the second part of what they said," I thought to myself. "I have to be imagining things tough. I couldn't have understood them." I looked back at Rachel who was sitting there watching me nervously.
"Are you okay?" she asked.
"Would you be okay if they stuck you with a frillin needle?" I asked hotly with a snarl.
"Don't start with me. I'm next. And then we both will be in the same situation." She replied in the same tone.
"Well at least maybe something might happen to you. I feel like nothing changed." I said as I crossed my arms in front of me. "Nothing ever happens to me. Why can't something cool happen?"
"Will you shut up and quit complaining. Because if you don't I'm going to smack you."
"Will not." I replied like an eight year old.
"Will too."
"Will not."
"Too."
"Not."
"Too!"
"Not!"
"TOO!"
"NOT!"
Rachel suddenly stopped fighting with a yelp. The aliens began the injection procedure with Rachel just as roughly as they had with me since she was distracted. Rachel was soon injected with the same stuff I was injected with. She went into the dazed condition and blinked blankly unsure what to feel.
The aliens looked at each other started to talk again, "Diid chewu ussssse tha shame doseage asssss thae lasssst?"
"I diid." Replied the one still holding the needle.
I gasped and looked at Rachel. She looked at me a little confused.
"Rachey did you hear that?" I asked.
"What did you hear? If you heard what I heard then we both are not crazy." She said.
"Me not crazy! Ha! I'm crazy and there is nothing more to that. With my luck this is a hallucination or some freaky dream and I'm going to wake up and never remember this ever happened. Then I'll see you at school with it being the last day and we'll laugh about how improbable this dream would be. Then it would be brushed off. This has to be a freaking dream!" I rambled on, more out of it than I thought I would be. The latter bits coming out as mumbles as I covered my face with my hand wishing I would just wake up already.
Rachel glared. "Oh will you just shut up!"
"Why don't you just shut up for once," I snapped back.
We started to fight again. The aliens looked at us in disbelief. Then they started to whisper amongst themselves.
The fight got worse and we both stood up on the beds yelling at each other. Me shaking a fist at her and her growling at me. Rachel pulled out a notebook from her messenger bag which had miraculously stayed on her shoulder throughout the whole abduction and threw it at me. It met it's mark quite successfully much to my disappointment.
"Oww." I said as I rubbed my head. "Where did cha get that? I thought you wouldn't have it." I whined.
Rachel looked at me and replied, "I have my ways. Now shut up or you're going to get hit again."
I stuck my tongue out at her, crossed my arms over my chest and sat down. I started to mumble something about stupid notebooks under my breath. It was along the lines of burning a certain notebook and spreading its ashes along some deep and undisclosable piece of land somewhere. That is if we ever made it back to terra firma at this rate.
"That's what I thought," She said as she sat back down obviously not paying attention to my garbled mumblings.
There was silence for quite a while. Both of us looked around wondering why all the aliens had stopped what they were doing just to gawk at some teenagers who almost had a war of only two people.
I glared at the aliens in the room and asked, "What? Two friends can't have a small fight without having on lookers watch it? Go back to work and leave us alone. You've already done enough as it is. We don't need an audience watching us fight."
What happened next surprised both of us. What seemed to be the head of the whole Med. Lab. looked at us and then looked at the rest of the lab.
"You heard her! GET BACK TO WORK!" it said clearly startling us.
"OK did I just imagine that?" I asked Rachel.
"If so then your imagination has rubbed off on me a little bit more than I expected."
"That's very dangerous," I said. "You never know what my imagination is going to do next..."
"Then I am afraid. I really don't like surprises anymore."
"You and me both," I muttered as I ran a hand through my hair snagging knots as I did that.
Authoress' Rant
Slow going with this redo. I can't believe how much I actually have to reread, take out, and add to make this up to my current level of writing. These chapters were slightly poor and even though they are still pretty short and are better put together than they were when I first started. Hope you all can pick up the differences and enjoy them more. I know I'm enjoying them because I've actually forgotten what exactly has been in these chapters. Which is odd. Oh well.
