The pattern is followed the girl is tested. then put back in her box.

Abandoned

By Leigh Hodgens

The air was stale here. It carried the taste of damp and wet. the smell of antiseptic cleaner and bleach burned her nose. the damp air catching in her throat. still the doctors. Though they were more scientists with fancy degrees in neuroscience had still not figured out what made her tick.

They tried being her friend, she saw through every attempt. The lie and deceit something she could taste, she always quoted to every one of them. “You taste like a lie, “ and it freaked the lab coats out especially if she smiled.

Their latest attempt was trying to mentally break her, leaving her to her own thoughts with only the company of darkness and the occasional drip of water. She knew an average person would break in a few days. She figured she would start getting bored at about 30 days.

She would perform her first escape attempt at day 35, and day 40 would be her second attempt. She would accidentally kill the guard at her cell door, after that she would be moved back to cryo sleep. They would be too angry to test her again until they got new staff, she found it hilarious that the lab coats were following such a predictable behaviour pattern even though they were the ones with “free will.” She chuckled darkly the newbie was watching her. The clipboard was shaking, maybe she could have a little fun before they put her back in her isolation chamber.

“Hey, you, blondie with the shaky board,” she spoke with a gravel like tone making the girl jump. “Yes?” Rule one broken they were never supposed to reply to her. “Can you get me some water?” The blonde tech girl blinked before rushing to get the prisoner water quickly handing over the liquid with a shaky smile. Rule two broken... they weren't supposed to give her anything. ”Thanks”  the prisoner growled out as she quickly snagged the girl closer wrapping chains around her neck holding the tech girl hostage, “Now get them to let me out,” she whispered into the choking tech’s ear. “P...please help me. “ Rule three broken... they were never to get caught. It wasn't two seconds later that a bullet lodged itself in the tech girls head. With her hostage dead, the prisoner just chuckled as guards escorted her to the isolation booth, people already moving to clean up her mess. “Can't wait to play again labcoats!”

She cruelly laughed it was time to start the cycle again she was proof.

pure evil is never completely abandoned ...you just bury it.
