59 Chapter 59 Number 15 (1/2)

Olivia began to stir, and he knew that she would be alright.

”What do you mean by your Olivia?” he asked Blue.

”We're all given the option to take care of a clone of Olivia.Mine died trying to get up here.” His head drooped and if he could cry, he probably would have.

”Mine died from a snake bite right after arrival.That's why I'm white, in her memory,” said White, watching as Olivia stood up shakily.

”But that doesn't make any sense, I had an Olivia, who went missing, and then this one showed up,” Dustin said, nodding towards her.

She was looking back and forth between them in confusion.

”Maybe one of them didn't get an Olivia, so you got two?” whispered Blue, as if it were a miracle.

”If I'm a clone, then why am I getting memories of past trips?”

”We don't know how they make the clones, or how it works.You might be able to find out in one of the other labs,” said White.

Dustin shook his head in frustration, and then headed back towards where they said number 15 was.If a bomb was implanted in each of their brains, then he wanted to know how to remove it.

The first thing that hit him, when he saw the tank, was that the guy was human, not a hybrid like the rest of them.He floated there, as if asleep, with his brown hair waving around his face.

”Is that what you looked like?” asked Olivia softly.She had been strangely quiet from the moment she woke, up, and he had been slightly worried.

”Yea, don't you remember from the news headlines of the Lady Killer?” he asked, glancing at her.

She shook her head. ”Those memories are faded.I can't remember them very well…so we have bombs in our brains?”

”I'm not sure.But this guy has the answers.Look, I've gotten several upgrades since you passed out.Do you want them?”

”Of course! I don't want to stay a munchkin forever!I can change into my last form, but if yours is better, then of course I want a copy!”

He paused to give it to her, then turned his attention to the man floating before him.He needed to get him out if he was going to question him.Setting to guns down, he looked over the monitor.

”An alarm is probably going to go off if you release him.We'll be off, if you don't mind.We don't want to get melted today.”

Dustin waved at them as they faded into the dark, towards the door, already lost in thought on how to get the guy out.As he leaned forward, to touch the glass, he was hit with a memory.

-He was strapped to a bed, with electrodes attached to his head.He was breathing hard, as pain coursed through him.

-The electricity flowing through his system spiked, and he bowed his back in a scream.

-Figures, possibly Josagn, were standing around him in white medical coats, with clipboards, watching him.When he tried to scream at them, he found his mouth full of something, a ball? A mouthguard!
