Subject 0025 Chapter 12: Shoot Him
((Eden by BATTLE BEAST)) With a gloomy realization, he swore. Right. Swearing was among other things he had picked up on this torturous path. This again! The alarms, the warning, the long pause, the footsteps, the shot, and then the headless body. The blood splashed all over him again, which gave him a new idea. He regarded the body, especially its certain part. One thing led to another, and he peeked at the babbling person and his group at the other end of the corridor. He smiled, liking his own thought. With the background of mechanical parts shifting and switching, twenty-five considered the blade in his hand. It was too small to do the job. It would take at least several minutes. There was no way he would have that much time. He even doubted if it would be possible to cut bones. If only he had a weapon bigger than this. When he ran, he had a plan in mind. These people had more than one gun on their bodies. A few people dropped the ones in their hands when the machine hands went
Subject 0025 Chapter 13: A Matter Of Minutes
((Throne by Bring Me The Horizon)) Up it was, but he realized after wasting a few seconds that would not have mattered. The door opened immediately. Twenty-five was ready to give a bullet to whoever awaited on the other side, but thankfully, it was vacant. Inside, he had to display the hand again to see the floor numbers. There were 60 circles in total, unlike in the middle elevator, including the ones combined with alphabets, such as the current floor B3. He could easily figure out how the ‘Bs’ on ten floors represented basements because of one button G. He had heard a few times some people mentioning ‘ground floor’ casually, and G could only mean that. If that was the case, B could also be something related to ‘ground’; for that, Underground would make sense, and similarly, it also meant ‘basement’. In choosing a floor, he had to gamble, since he did not know where he should go. Although they had dragged him along multiple levels while they were humiliating him, the numbers of fl
Subject 0025 Chapter 14: Bring Me There
((Stressed Out by Twenty One Pilots)) He recognized her. The stern-faced woman who had a dislike for Gable Raciti. Yet, what was the difference? She was the same as him in the end. These people all had made those little treatments on them. And speaking of treatments, he had a few questions to ask. “Don’t move,” he ordered, despite knowing it was unnecessary. The scientist would not move anyway, given how she was staring at him: horrified. He was aware of how he would look like, with the guns, all the blood, and the hand. A monster was what he ended up to be while trying to escape from other monsters. He threw a glance at the numbers on the side panel. Under his instructions, the woman gave a verbal command to the system to go to level 50 and locked the elevator from the inside, preventing it from opening on other floors. Aiming the gun at her, he said to the air, “I know you people are watching this. So listen carefully. Don’t lock this elevator. Don’t break it open. Do NOTHING th
Subject 0025 Chapter 15: Identical
((21 Guns by Green Day)) He swung around and found no one was there; she was gone. The door was closing shut under his eyes; on its surface were the twirling vines he hadn’t noticed before. The metallic black vines were moving as if they were sentient. He doubted he would be able to get out of this room himself. He could try breaking the door but he didn’t. It turned out to be the right decision because while twenty-five was indecisive about what to do next, his enemies had blocked the only way out. If he broke through the door, they would have killed him, as they were already at the door when the woman exited. The surveillance team informed them how he was inside and even the exact location he was standing. In less than six seconds after the scientist’s exit, they entered the room with lethal force. He was between the desk and the glass wall when they barged in. Dozens of guns fired simultaneously; a deadly rain of bullets envelop the room in vengeance, too eager to tear their
Subject 0025 Chapter 16: The Ground
((It's My Life by Bon Jovi)) ***About three weeks ago*** The Ground was probably one of the most interesting and also the most dangerous neighborhoods in CNA. Its existence had been a focus in political debates as almost every president boasted to end the poverty in this continental country but apparently, no one had not accomplished that. Jack –short, stout, and bald– who was the owner of a pizza stall or more accurately a pizza-hovercar, was making small talk with his customers. “You’re right, Jack,” one customer agreed about something with him. “Happy birthday,” the owner said to another customer, handing him a pizza box. “Thanks. You remembered,” the second customer smiled in surprise before leaving. He continued his discussion with the first customer. For Jack, it was typical. He was well known to remember details about every regular customer of his. In front of his opened-roofed colorless hovercar, half a dozen people were waiting in line. Here, walkers–people who travel
Subject 0025 Chapter 17: Haleigh DaSilva
((Black Summer by Red Hot Chili Peppers)) “What do you mean by that?” Jack hesitated. “I asked, what do you mean by that?!” she asked louder this time. “Did you just call me crazy?!” The woman appeared old, weak, and exhausted but her voice was shockingly loud and high-pitched. Jack who was twice the size of her flinched at her shout. “Maybe,” he mumbled with a sneaky glance. “Only ghosts live in that place.” His voice got even quieter. “O father in heaven! Did you hear what he just said? I can’t believe this! He thinks I am crazy! He thinks I am making it all up!” Forcefully, Haleigh pulled her hair with both hands. “He thinks they did not kill my baby! How dares he?! How could he assu…” Jack jumped up and tried to remove her wrinkled hands from her scalp. A few strands were already falling out. “Motherf--” he cursed as her head hit his jaw because she was shaking her head wildly. “It hurt!” he whined. “I did not say you were making it up. I just thought you needed to… St
Subject 0025 Chapter 18: My Apple
((Handshake With Hell by Arch Enemy)) However, there were no pay-computers where Haleigh could make a call in this complex of ground streets. Normally, there would be dark-green booths moving up and down between the sky to the earth, sliding along tall thin poles. Compared to a millennium ago when she was younger, there had been fewer and fewer computer booths. Even so, every city had a few of them for public use. It was apparent to everyone that The Ground was not any city. This was a community made of leftover bits and pieces of the old times. She had not realized she had stopped walking. She had ended up sitting in the middle of the street in a daze. Something hit her head. It fell into her lap before rolling onto the street. “Give me back my apple!” a small voice cried from above. It was from a hovercar and a little girl was looking down from the open window, above her a young woman. Loud honks from another vehicle behind it filled the atmosphere as the family’s car had halted
Subject 0025 Chapter 19: A Sudden Fury
((Chop Suey by System Of A Down)) On the way, Haleigh could not stop feeling grateful to Jack and Luke, flying the brassy hovercar. It was dark out there as the dawn had yet to come, but every hovercar had night-vision. She could not stop feeling grateful to both of them. According to Jack, this used to be a clunker before they dragged it out from a hovercar graveyard nearby and carted it to one of their friends who knew how to fix vehicles. Still, this was the kindest thing people had ever done to her, including her families that no longer existed. Thinking of the last time she had flown along this route, she kept hearing Hannah’s words. ‘I wish he becomes the president.’ That had been one of those rare moments Hannah bickered with her. The stubborn girl; she had always had her own opinions. Haleigh almost smiled. How long that had been? Mere two weeks ago. She heard someone–not sure who; it could have been Jack or Luke or a stranger on the street–talking about that: Wafford had
