With the fire going nicely, I curled up on the floor, hurting both in my body, my head and inside my mind. I was having really bad visions, all the normal stuff. In addition, I was imagining the horrible things Aliyah thought about me, and she was right to think them. I was a horrible person and a worse best friend…and cousin. And added onto that, I was now thinking of ways I was going to hurt Daddy.That thought made me start crying, tears streaming down my face, as I laid curled up in a tight ball on the floor. I was shaking like a leaf, and sweating really bad. I couldn’t stop myself from thinking about the need for those drugs, between bouts of waking nightmares from the visions I was having of James and the doctors, and now Aliyah and Daddy. At least I didn’t see Momma or Ben.As I laid on the floor, something inside me began to turn off. I couldn’t explain it other than that. My mind went someplace else, into that blackness, but it was different. My body simply stopped doing any

His probe was forcing its way into my mind. Against better judgement, I sent an attack at him, trying to force horrible images into his mind. He laughed, allowing my images in, which unfortunately, let him into my mind. I hadn’t realized that would happen, which was probably why I thought it was a bad idea. Such was my stupidity.His images were the same kinds of things he’d forced on me the last time, but a lot rougher, meaner. It was horrible. They were way worse than before, and I couldn’t make my mind focus. He also started pushing images of the things the doctors were going to do to me, which was much worse than what he planned.I fell on my side, curling up into a ball, unable to do anything. My mind was shutting down again and I couldn’t stop it. That’s what it wanted to do, anyway, but I’d forced it to engage.That was when I heard the words, “The government makes you stronger.” An explosion of pain blacked out everything else, even the images from James, although my own image

“Who are you bringing and why should I allow them in my radiology department?” the doctor asked.“He’s the head of our mental training department. The man I asked him to bring is our chief radiologist. Both have expertise in this area that you simply don’t have. I mean no offense, but it’s the truth,” she stated.“I won’t allow some unknown person into this lab,” he said.“I can have the federal government take full control, if you insist, which would likely shut you down altogether, at least until we finish our work,” she threatened.“You would shut down the only hospital for miles, just for this one girl?” he asked, incredulity in his voice.“Yes,” she replied.“Is she that important?” he asked.“Yes. She represents billions in research dollars,” she said, knowing she had to give some justification. “We don’t need to go there, if you will allow us to do what’s needed, without interference, but I’ll do what I must to insure we can do what we need to.”The doctor looked at her for a l

As I was staggering from that new surge of torment, pictures of a kid attempting to would terrible things came into my care. I realized I'd seen him previously, yet again I was unable to recollect where. Out of nowhere, the name James came into my viewpoints and I realized that was what his identity was. Some way or another, I likewise realized he was definitely not a decent individual.For what reason would I be able to get a memory of somebody pleasant? Why just a terrible individual, expecting that was a genuine memory and not any more manifestations of my psyche? No, I felt that it was genuine, yet I was unable to recollect that whatever else about him or how I knew him.Setting that to the side, in the same way as other weird bits of memory, I began slamming against my jail walls once more, tolerating the aggravation as the cost for opportunity. I endlessly battled, feeling little shortcomings structure as I proceeded with my tireless attack.At last, I felt like I could move my

[EPILOGUE]“Mr. Michael , please explain to this committee how you managed to run a covert program, spending millions of taxpayer dollars, kidnapping children and then attempting to kill people, all without the knowledge of any committee or without any Congressional oversight?” Senator Riley, the head of the Senate’s Homeland Security Committee asked.“Sir, I was tasked with running a training program for children with unique gifts, given to them through their parents. Everything was done with full knowledge of the parents prior to being administered the serum, which granted the abilities,” Michael replied.“Then how do you explain Subjects, 11325 and 11326?”Michael , with a pleasant smile said, “There were some in the early days of the program that were willing to forego some of the basic requirements of the program. They have since been removed from the program.”“And what do you propose to do with the children of those two subjects, who had no prior knowledge of this experiment t
