The Experiments

~ Five Months Later ~

Everything has been going smoothly these past months. Oliver and I have just made five months, but unfortunately, so has Venus and Marcus. The six of us have gotten shocked a few times because we have been trying to escape. Escaping is relatively impossible, so we have basically just accepted our fate. Marcus has stopped hanging out with us and he has devoted almost all his time to Venus. We are all super homesick, and our powers have been developing amazingly. I can enter minds to find secrets and read someones thoughts. Oliver can steal someone's sense and use them himself. He can use someone's voice to disguise his, or he can steal the physical appearance of the nose or ears. Lily can just think of a gun, only, and it forms in her hand. If Jaime paints in the air, the colors stay and she just needs to touch it to bring it to life. Trevor and Lucas can create tangible items in their illusions to make them much more real. I've heard Nancy talk about a war, she said that it may be real soon. I'm scared, what's going to happen to us? I was beating Oliver in a racing game, when a voice came over the loud speaker, "All students report to the gym. Emergency meeting. Now!" screamed a panicked voice. We followed the many students walking to the gym. We quickly found everyone else and sat on the left side of the gym. I noticed Marcus and Venus sitting across from us. She was kissing him, but he looked bored and distracted. He saw me, and i gave him a weak smile. He returned the smile, but it disappeared as soon as Venus followed his gaze and slapped him. I gave him a sympathetic look. I missed my bestfriend, and by the looks of it, Venus was acting a little like his dad. Before i could say anything to Oliver, Nancy spoke into a microphone. "Hello students. Thank you for reporting here in record time. We will be seperating everyone into age groups. We are leaving school to go to a secure location. Your bracelets will still be able to shock anyone who tries to escape, so i'd advise against it. Group A will be with Mr. Lacosta and Miss Starr, ages 14-16. Group B will be with Mrs. Spence and Mr. Cameron, ages 17-20. Group C will be with Mr. Long and myself, ages 20-23. Please meet in your designated areas. Group A in the library, Group B in the main dorm (Dorm A), and Group C in the mess hall. Your group leaders will explain everything. We will be traveling separately and arriving at different locations. We will keep in touch and meet at a single location in a little while. You will all continue your training because i need you all to stay strong. We might not come back here, so take everything. Now go!" Everyone scrambled to their locations. The six of us were in Group B because we were all nineteen. The six of us made our way to Dorm A and sat on a couch in the huge lounge. I rested my head on Oliver's shoulder, trying to relax. "Students in Group B, we are soon going to be in a war! We are in charge of the second wave of students. We are still unsure of when the attack will be, but it's very soon. Leaving here will only distract them temporarily, they have very strong trackers. Any questions?" explained an excited Mrs. Spencer. "Who is 'them'?" asked a short red-head. "Students just like you, except the they have been brainwashed to obey each and every command. There are two other schools like ours that are more humane. We will be meeting up with them at our location. We need them on our side so be nice. Now go pack and say goodbye. Meet here in fifteen minutes." I kissed Oliver, then ran to my room. I found an open suitcase on my bed and began to throw everything into it. I threw on a leather jacket, then went back to the lounge. I was living in Dorm A, so it took me five to six minutes tops. No one was there, so i decided to take a seat on a couch. As soon as my arse touched the cushion, i was transported to a train. My ankles were chained to the bottom of my seat, and my right wrist was chained to the bottom of my armrest to avoid suspicion. I looked out the window to my right, and i saw the beauty of London. I jumped when the person next to me arrived. It was Marcus. "Hey Eli," he said softly. "Hi Marc," i replied slowly. We sat in silence for a while, until he finally spoke. "I miss you, Eli," he said. "I miss you too," i smiled. We talked about Oliver and Venus for a while. Soon i felt the train start lurching forward. I looked around, our cart was completely full, but not all were students. Actually, most were just normal citizens. I heard a man say 'Tickets' a few seats over. Tickets? Where was mine? I looked around until i found it in a pocket in front of me. We handed our tickets to the man, who eyed us suspiciously. The rythmic lull of the train started pulling me into a gentle sleep. My heavy eyelids closing, my body relaxing, my heart still pumping like a mad man. I woke when i felt something nudge my left elbow. "Eli, we're getting off. Grab your bag quick." whispered Marcus. I touched my bag and was soon in a deep forest.
