~Clive's Flashback~
"Do you know why you're here, Clive?" Bill hawks said slowly while he sipped his steaming cup of tea. He smiled and lean't back into the comfortable plush chair. His face was smug as he relished in his victory. He carefully placed down his cup of tea and adjusted his thick framed glasses and stared at me intently.
"I-I was collecting some files from the police station... a-and I was ambushed by a group of secret service soldiers. Why did you bring me here?" I raised my gaze to stare him in the soul-less eyes. "I did my time. All I'm trying to do is bring justice to a man who didn't do his. I haven't done anything illegal! It is not against the law to research this!" I shouted at him,my hate and anger brewing inside me.
"Ah, well. You and I don't tend to, exactly, abide the Law. Do we not?" He took another long sip from his tea. I stared at him, pure hatred burning in my eyes. I wanted to break the shackles that tied me to the walls and kick his stupid head in, but the metal was bound heavily and tightly, it would be a waste of time to try. "I'm going to let you in on a little secret. This is where all the government moles get punished. I don't need to worry about abusing the law..." He stirred his tea smiling to himself. He raised his eyebrows and gestured with the spoon "Because you see, you won't remember me doing it."
I began to wonder what he could possibly mean before three heavily armed secret service soldiers unlocked the shackles that held me and dragged me through the door. I kicked out and screamed as loudly as I could, but there was nobody who cared to hear me. They led me to a large stone chair a strapped me in so I couldn't escape and a large wired helmet was brought down and locked over my head. A man in a white lab coat began to flick switches and push buttons upon a giant machine that appeared to connect with the helmet.
"Wh-what are you doing? Please don't!" I begged, but it was useless. every person in this building was as cold hearted and cruel as Bill himself. He flipped one finally switch and a massive jolt of electricity went through me. I felt as though something was being ripped out of me through the jolts of electricity. I screamed. A piercing, painful shriek that seemed to unnerve even the cruel scietist before me. I thought I was going to die. But then I heard a gunshot in the distance, a flicker of hope flooded through me. Perhaps it was a rescue team? I tried hard not to let my hopes soar, it was probably just another way of torturing poor prisoners. but it was followed by another series of firing, then a deadly silence.
THUMP THUMP
The door crashed down, revealing a girl and a small group of armed people standing behind it.
"PUT YOU HANDS UP." she yelled at the scientist. He put his shaky hands in the air, his face had gone a ghostly pale. "TURN THAT BLOODY EVIL MACHINE OFF, RIGHT NOW." The scientist shifted slightly but reluctantly obeyed the girl. The masses of electricity that seemed to be attacking my mind stopped, but the ringing throughout my ears and the slightly dizzy feeling had not gone. "Oh, Clive..." she removed my helmet and unstrapped the metal cuffs. While she was releasing me the scientist had grabbed a gun and pointed it at her back. Before anyone had even noticed the girl spun round and shot him square in the head. "Thought he could catch me off guard, ey?" the other men that had come in with her when she busted down the door chuckled amongst themselves.
"Wh-who are you?" I shook my head. I knew the girl but I couldn't quite put my finger on where from.
"Clive? It's me, Laura." She looked deeply saddened, and she seemed to search my eyes for something.
"Laura..." I squinted as I thought hard "I-I remember... We met at the prison." I tried to remember the moments I first looked upon the girls face, I could recall them... but it was so painful. "My head..." I brought my hand to my head which felt so heavy.
"Sshh" She comforted. "At least he's not completely lost it. Destroy the vile machine." she said to the others in the room. They nodded and began to smash the machine with pipes and other debris found in the room. "Can you walk?" Laura asked me. I nodded weakly in response and slung my arm over her shoulder to support my weight. My legs swayed back and forth, I felt like I was going to faint.
"They're in there!" A gruff voice came from the distance. Laura's eyes filled with fear.
"Run." she whispered to the others. They ran on ahead as we limped behind. I noticed she deliberately dropped a scarlet envelope on the floor as we trudge through the dreary prisoner filled halls.
