Natural selection

Chapter three; Leigh

Audrey felt the temperature in the room rise against her skin, her head were clouded with though as the fear increase the effects of the sedatives wore of completely she was wide awake her sense heightened she could hear them all, the tiny taps at the water drops leaked from the poor ventilation system.

Shutting her eyes as the room brightness was increase drastically, The sudden brightness of the room pulled tears to her eyes, she groaned grabbing her head the pain shoot daggers.

Her reaction to the sudden brightness of the room was mimicked by the few others who were awake, the stench of the room wasn't missed it was blood she could tell it was an all to familiar smell to her, blinking rigorously as she took in her surroundings squirming in her seat to sit upright the chains restricting the simple motion.

Pushing down the fresh wave of tears building up she was tired of crying, the bile building in her throat restricting her breathing was more than enough reading to motivate her to reduce her crying,

Turing her eyes to take in how dirty the room would be, it was surprisingly clean to a bare minimum, all white walls with blood patches on the walls, finger imprints they screamed fear and she felt the content in her stomach threaten to spill over, holding down the nausea she continues to examine the room but not a single speck of dust in sight.

A writing bold in blood read Natural selection, creasing her forehead she looked down at the silent faces no one said anything. She took an head count there was 25 of them in the room and only 7 of them were awake her included, looking across the room at one particular boy he gazed at the floor his body shaking violently,

He had saliva pouring of out his mouth he was probably the one screaming in the dark, he was probably scared out his mind, she felt a bile rising at the pit of her stomach the dread feeling her gagging and giving in to the nausea she throws up, it was more of an empty gag she had not had anything to eat,

"Shit"he She cursed wiping her lips on her thigh, she felt stares, she ignores them looking back up at Dylan, he wasn't all too beat up, she took pity in his current situation.

She looked to the side at the face of her best friend Gwen, sadness clouded Audrey eyes as she took in the beat up figure of her friend, she was still out cold from the sedatives.

Trailing her eyes down her feeble body, She had a busted lip that must hurt, it must hurt how she didn't remember anything that happened, Looking down from her bloody thigh, to the blood patch on her head, She whimpers the tears flowing freely, how did she get stuck in this nightmare.

"Hey Gwen please wake up" Audrey's faint voice drew back the suppressing tears, they pulled a sharp pain at her throat as she tried to wake her friend up, "Hey love she's out cold not dead let her sleep that would be better for her" Leigh's voice interrupted Audrey's begging.

Leigh couldn't help but feel pity for the poor girl, she looked young all she did since she was awake was cry, " Uhmm thank you I just don't know what's going on and on one is saying anything" Audrey voice illuminated as she took in the appearance of the girl taking to her.

She had a thick black shoulder length hair, which was all over the place, all scattered and unkept but the beauty of the hair color was rather astonishing, they that stopped right below her semi broad shoulders, she was in real great shape, even in her crouched position she could still see the full on hips compared to her skinny legs and hip dips.

Her fiery hair gave essence to her dark brown eyes, even across the room, it had a striking and captivating effect, You could get lost just by staring into our eyes which Audrey did.

"I am Leigh by the way" Leigh said sweetly even if her voice had a raspy edge, She forced a smile the pain in her words couldn't be missed, Sh was trying to comfort through the small gesture, Audrey she sent her a smile back feeling her dread , Taking a moment to examine the girl who sat just across her cool she had a shade of emerald eyes, she had pretty smile but it was fake she could tell they had darkness behind them.

Her hair was pure blonde, you could tell they were bright and even if they had a few bloody strands you still couldn't see beauty behind the had an illuminating effect, She was small and petite almost lean, she hardly eats or she diets,

Audrey couldn't help but still uncomfortable and shy at least that's took a mind off the fact that she was tied down in a basement, she felt something rise in her throat, she was never in to girls but with Leigh it felt different.

Leigh held a sense of warmth you could feel it, "I'm Audrey this is a shitty place to neet"

"I'm Myra" A third voice interrupted the girls little moment as the third conscious girl in the room finally said something since she had been awake,

"You talk" Leigh remarked in mock disbelief, causing a faint smile to appear on Myra's face Mario gave a curt nod,

"Do you guys have any clue on how you got here Because the last thing I remember was a car crash and I'm supposed to be dead"

Myra sat up at the girls who were in the middle of a conversation, She was tired of a head Actually not the same question over and over again How the fuck did I get here?.

Leigh cracked a smile, " I actually did remember how I got her" She said grimace to the previous night, Leigh began the day like any other, in bed with her cat.

"Hey pumpkin" She yawned as the creature pounced of the bed stretching it's body all all over she tried to mimic her cat but ended up on the floor with a thud, "Ouch that hurt like hell"

She grimaced feel wet tongue like all over her face, she giggled get up picking her cat who snuggle further into her, she smiled with content she was happy that was such a foreign word to Leigh.

She used to be depressed, having you marriage ruined by your best friend on the night if your anniversary was somewhat therapy worthy, That was in the past, she was past the suicide attempts, she was past the crying she was starting a fresh..

"I need to drop you off at your baby sitters and I'll be off to work be good my love child" She spoke to the cat as she walked into the bathroom to have a bath, with a smile on her face she hummed the lyrics to breakfast by dove Cameron.

Leigh cringed at her self her choice in music was questionable, but down Cameron was an all time favorite of hers, finished with our business in the bathroom She puts on a office overalls laying her edges, she walked out of the house picking up a cat, she knock on a neighbor's door.

"Good morning Mrs Norris, you promised to watch pumpkin for me today" She greeted the woman with a smile, " Yes love, I would love to watch her" Mrs Norris carried the feline creature, placing her in the room with her 6 other cats.

" Thank you ma'am and have a nice day, and remember she is allergic to salmon thank you so much I owe you one" Mrs Norris might have been the buildings cat lady But she was extremely lovable and very nice.

Leigh rushed out as she soon figured out that she was running late for work rushing down the flight of stairs the elevator in the building wasn't always trustworthy most times.

It was times like this that made her grateful She used to be a fitness coach, flagging the first taxi she could find hoping it wasn't a serial killer she hopped in imputing our address as she picked out our cell phone to call our workmate that she might be a bit late to the construction site

The rest of the day was pretty much a blur until after a night at the club, Leigh walked home tipsy from all the alcohol she had, she was wide awake and her senses was still bright, she was never a lightheaded she could take a few shots of alcohol and be fine.

Walking down the busy street, she flagged a taxi getting in she told the driver here address, looking towards his shoulder it had a snake tattooed on it, Leigh couldn't help but feel uneasy during the car ride.

"Uhmm can you stop the car ride?" Leigh spoke up to the man behind the wheel, the car came to an abrupt stop she cancel out the feeling of uneasy, she motioned to the door which was still locked.

Hearing the look click she tried to step out, feeling the door open up from the out side, a man rushed in grabbing her by the throat, Leigh kicked him with the heel of her sneakers fighting as she saw the sharp pointed tip of a needle driving towards her neck.

Headbutting him she felt blood rush to her nose that was a bad idea, "Feist one I like it". The man said slamming his head into her that knocked her out cold.

Leigh woke up here, that was all she remembers she didn't even get so see a face.

"What the hell is natural selection?."

She looked up at the writing on the walls
