I sat in the still car in the driveway waiting for Dad to get in so we could go to the swimming tournament. I had a bag with my swim stuff and extra clothes at my feet. After all these years of swimming I never thought I would actually be seen as a good swimmer. But I was a natural at it. And the league quickly accepted me, which actually surprised me at first. But I guess I was pretty good. 

     It was 6:13 PM. Dad better be comming soon. 

303: Hey, break a leg out there! 

     303 teased. 

Me: Very funny 303. Turns out I actually need my legs for this sport. And isn't that a theater thing?

303: Maybe. I don't really know, or care. :}

     My head was once again silent for a bit. Then the clock hit 6:15 PM. 

303: Hey I seem to be having connection problems.. I might cut out agai- 

     I waited for 303 to finish his sentence. But all was quiet. Too quiet. I looked around outside the car to see if something was up. I was sitting in the passenger seat if that helps. 

Me: 303? 303 you there?!

     But there was only silence in response.

     "Hello Amey." A male voice I didn't recognize spoke from behind my seat. I just froze stone solid. "What? Not going to speak?. Well I guess that makes things easier for me. Mind being a little experiment for me sweetheart?" He asked coldly but also somehow jokingly. The voice sounded like the one it came from was around my age, maybe a little older. Then before I could jump up to get out and run the guy's hand grabbed my left shoulder and I felt my entire body suddenly in shocking pain. I squeesed my eyes shut and clenched my jaw even tighter as the pain surged through me. My head began to hurt and soon I felt the car seat dissipear from under me. I fell on my bum onto a cold hard concrete floor. 

     "Wha?!" I shouted as I looked around wide eyes. My head hurt but I didn't care. I was in a completely different place. And it scared me. 

     What I saw, horrified me. The place looked like a huge abandoned garage. Probably an old airplain-hanger or something. The place was decently lit, showing machines and contraptions of all kinds. Some were large others were small. Some looked clean and well taken care of, and others just scattered around on the floor like junk among the many tools laid about as well. 

     The hand on my shoulder had left once I appeared but I saw someone walking around among the contraptions towards me. It was then that I decided to look at one of the biggest ones. There were three main parts to it. In the center looked like a control thing, energy source, and whatever else the machine was supposed to do. And on each side was what looked almost like a metal coffin with a glass lid. I gulped hard when I saw it. Something about it terrified me. 

     "You like the lab?" A farmiliar voice asked. I turned my attention back onto the guy who had grabbed me. 

     "H- how did I get here?!" I demanded. "And wh- where is here?!" 

     "A simple teleportation trick.." Was all he said as an snswer. He then started walking directly towards me with something in his hand I couldn't focus on. All I could do was study this new guy. 

     He didn't look much older than me. He had short dark brown hair but not short enough so some of it was able to fall into his face. It looked all mangled, as if he never properly brushed it. He was probably too busy with whatever inventions he had down here. He also wore a dark cyan shirt. All dirty with oil and greece, probably yet again from working on all those inventions of his. And as the worst of all fashions he wore dark blueish purple jeans, which were also pretty dirty. In fact, his whole self looked like he had worked in here nonstop for a long time and couldn't wait to test whatever he had just finished. My throat hurt when I had no spit to gulp hard down on. But of course I had saved the best for last. His eyes. They were pupilless and glowing white. For some reason my first thought was power. That somehow his power inside shown through those terrifying eyes. 

       Those terrifying glowing eyes came closer. His entire body was so chill and controlled it would be hard to tell if he were into trouble if he hadn't just teleported me into some science lab to make me his experiment. I stepped back but he noticed my motives of escaping and raised his hand to stop me. I did stop, not because I wanted to. But because some force held me in place. Only the things I needed to move to survive like my blood and breathing, and my eyes, were able to move. Remembering some newer ci-fi movies I wondered if he was a Jedi- no. A sith lord. The guy continued casually walking up to me until he was right in front of me. My eyes finally fixated on the large tool firm in his grip. My eyes widened when I saw it was a nail gun. 

     "Wh- wha-!" I began to ask in panic but was suddenly unable to speak as well. 

     "Shh.. This is simply so I wake up quicker." He spoke/whispered. Then the nail gun was put against my right arm, just under the elbow, and with a pull of the trigger, like a gun, I felt a sharp pain in my arm but was unable to scream. I could only breathe unevenly. I felt as blood trickled down onto my hand and even felt the cold nail deep in my arm. "Let's get this over with." The guy grumbled as he lowered the nail gun and set it down. With a snap of his fingers I was teleported again. This time right next to that machine I was so terrified of, facing the left coffin looking thing. "Get in." I heard him order from behind me. 

     My body unfroze so I could move around freely. I just turned around and glared at the young man. He was standing right next to the right one. His face just showed annoyance as he watched me. I showed desire to run off, aiming myself away and raising my foot, but couldn't go anywhere. I felt myself freeze again like before. The guy teleported next to me and opened up the lid by pulling a small lever down onto a button. He then proceeded in picking me up and practically throwing me in himself. 

     Once I was in the lid shut and I was stuck inside this death trap. At least no one would need to buy me a coffin, I was already inside one. The guy then teleported into his own "coffin," and looked over at me with a smirk that looked like he had just won something of great value. 

     I was once again allowed to move but there wasn't much point to it. I tried banging on the glass but it seemed as if even bullets couldn't crack it. The lid closed the guy in and parts of the machine lit up, especially in the center piece. I struggled more as the noises of an unfamiliar source turned on and began doing whatever magic it was programed to do. My right arm stung like crazy and blood was all over my shirt by now, but that didn't stop me from banging as hard as I could on the glass. The container was too small however for me to try to kick it. 

     As the machine became louder the seater bit also began to shake a little like a washing machine set on high. A gas substance spilled into both the "coffins" and I instinctively held my breath. I looked over at the guy and saw him breath it in and quickly fall into a calm dreamless sleep. My eyes widened at the realization that this gas was most likely SLEEPING GAS!

     I held my breath as long as possible as the machine rattled and the lights coming from inside the center flashed like crazy. My head began to hurt and feel weird. My body went numb and I wasn't sure if those symptoms were caused by the machine or the lack of oxygen. My vision slowly began to blur and I became too weak to keep hitting the glass. I spent most of my energy on just holding my breath, but soon even that got tiring. My lungs pleaded for oxygen but I wouldn't let myself take a breath. Finally my brain shut itself down and I passed out so I could finally breathe. Such a sudden fail.. Why so soon?...

The guy/Brian(OH.4)

     OUCH! 

     I woke suddenly with pain in my right arm. I quickly looked down and saw the blood from my arm all over my shirt. And the nail was still in there. The lids of the capsules had opened once the final experiment was over. And so far, it seemed to have worked. I quickly stepped out and walked over to the medical table with an assortment of first aid equipment. I looked about and found some tweezers, cleaning alcohol, cotton balls, numbing cream, and a wad of bandages. I went to work with the tweezers in carefully removing the nail. This new me was much less resistant to pain so it hurt to simply touch the injury. But it had indeed helped me wake sooner. 

     Once the nail was out I used a cotton ball and some of that cleaning alcohol and dabbed the injury carefully. I had made sure to use the cleanest nails possible so hopefully Tetnis wouldn't be a problem. Once I was done cleaning the injury I looked sourly at the red and painfully sore spot that was still bleeding quite a bit. I rubbed on some numbing cream with the hopes that it would at least make the pain ignoreable. Before with my powers my body was able to heal itself quickly so that this kind of thing was never really a problem. Luckily I had made sure to learn all I needed about medical stuff just incase it was ever needed. 

     I sighed in relief a little when I felt the injury tingle a little, distracting the pain momentarily. I then proceeded in wrapping it up in bandages. Once that was done, I walked over to the little teleportation machine I had built for a time like this. Specifficly this time. I stood on the equipment that did the job I could usually do myself with just my mind. I turned and took one last look at my lab. All those endless nights of nonstop inventing and testing, and I was finally free. I sighed both in joy and sadness that I would never see this place ever again, and turned to the control panel for the machine I was standing on. 

     I typed in the coordinates. Close to my NEW house but not too close at the same time. Maybe about a mile away alongside the nearest road. I am pretty sure with the blood already all over me it would be easy to come up with a story about being chased and shot or something. Just maybe I could get some icecream for being a 'good girl.' I chucked for some reason as I thought. Then I flipped the switch ant teleported off to my new life. I was FINALLY, free...

========================

Hello! I usually don't have these little announcement things here, but today is my birthday! Yea!. So yeah, just thought I would get something done on this day that is of my life time expansion, and stuff. XD... Anyway, it actually literally JUST became my birthday because the clock over here just struck past midnight. It's about 12:30 over here down south in the country. Just imagine me saying that with a very Oklahoman accent. XD... So yeah, good night, good bye, and tah tah! :]
