Chapter 56 - Death part 2 (2/2)

”We simple don't care. She either gets her mutations now or she is disposable.” The voice was so cold and callus, it was like nothing Laura had ever heard before. Terror griped her again as her eyes turned to Sarah, hoping, praying that she could help her.

She didn't know what was about to happen, but she was sure it wasn't good. As she looked at one of the only good people in her life, her hope started to crumble away and die as Sarah stopped trying to argue and slumped her shoulders in defeat.

'NO help me! Keep going! Don't leave me alone.' Her thoughts screamed at her as she was finally carried into the room, tears finally falling down her face as she wasn't protected by one of the two people she trusted.

Carried into the room, she was almost slammed into the table as her legs and hands were restrained by metal links. *Click* *Click* She tried to wiggle her body around but she couldn't move, the metal was just digging into her arm, hurting her.

Looking up from the links she starred into the window as multiple eyes starred back. Her eyes were blurred slightly as she starred at only one set of eyes, only one figure on the other side of the glass. *Bang* Click* The door to the room was locked shut.

The room was dark except for the small light coming from the window. On the other side the scientists put some glasses on and made their final preparations. Zander and the calculative man also put glasses on as Sarah continued to stare at the tear filled eyes of her daughter.

Finally just above a whisper Zander spoke. ”Begin the Radiation Bath” Sarah gave a reluctant nod and pressed the button, every movement caught by Laura's eyes. *Ting* *Buzz* something buzzed to life above Laura's trapped body turning the whole room into a sea of red.

She didn't feel anything for a second before the pain hit her. It was like nothing she had ever experience and sadly it wouldn't be the last time she felt something like this. ”ARGHHHHHHHH!!!!!” Pain exploded in her head as her body felt like it was on fire.

Her body that had been still, thrashed about as drool and spit were flung everywhere. Her eyes shut tight as the pain made her brain go white. Convulsions racked her body as it only got worse and worse over time.

She didn't know how long she was strapped there for, her voice had long since turned rasp her throat raw from the screaming. At some point she started to clench her teeth as her gums bleed from the pressure.

As her brain was blank with unending, unceasing pain she felt an itchiness build up in her wrists and hands. She had no clue what was happening as the itchiness started to become more painful. Cracking her eyes open with the will she had left.

Her eyes just cracked open as two bone claws popped out of her hands and one for each foot. Blood splattered out causing more pain and suffering, but at the same time the newly made cuts started to heal over at an unprecedented rate.

”ARGHHHHHHH!!!!!!” With one final shout of pain the red vanished and Laura slumped to the bed, out like a light. The pain finally made her unconscious. *Bizzz* A blue light enveloped the room as the fans in the vents started clean the air, slowly cleansing the radiation.

*Drip* *Drip* Blood fell slowly down her bone claws and fell to the ground as the door to the room opened, quite a few people walking in. People in labs coats surrounded the unconscious girl as they studied the new additions to her body, one even slashing her skin with a scalpel to see how fast it would heal.

A smile was plastered onto Zander's lips as he turned towards Sarah, who was standing a bit behind the group. ”See, what did I tell you.” Giving her one last smirk he turned towards the guards. ”Take her back to the room.”

Everyone left as the bloodied body was carried away

As the room cleared a different Laura appeared in front of the metal table, eyes unclear she looked at the still wet blood. Behind her Sarah Kinney whispered again in her ear.

”A weapon forged in pain.”
