Chapter 26

 

        The scream rang off the walls and everyone in the room paused to look. Arnina took this opportunity and pulled the IV out of her arm. She had a hard time staying awake but the adrenaline pumping through her veins washed the toxin out of her system. With doctors back still turned she tried to silently get off of the chair.

 

        “Oh no you don’t!” yelled the doctor tuning around to catch her in the act.

 

        “Let me go!” Arnina yelled back biting the doctor’s hand when he tried to hold her down.

 

“Guards!” he screamed.

 

        Two of the guards came over and held Arnina down as the doctor tried to get the IV back into her, but Arnina was not having that. She kicked and screamed like a crazy person trying to help Chloe. Chloe’s screaming kept going and going and finally Arnina got to a point where she just couldn’t stand it anymore.

 

        “F**k it!” she thought and called upon her powers. Her hands caught fire and the guards jumped back in surprise. Now free she threw fire balls at them, catching their clothing on fire. They started to run around and scream like idiots but she was too focused on saving Chloe to enjoy it. Just to get rid of the problem of all the other guards in her way she threw fire balls about, setting the whole room on fire. She was careful though not to throw them in Jade and Rachel’s direction, they were hiding behind a huge machine waiting for their chance to make a run for it.

 

        When Arnina had finally cleared her path she tried to find were Chloe’s scream was coming from. After listening for a second she walked through the smoke and flames to the back of the room. She saw there a large metal chamber that reminded her of a sauna. She quickly went to the control panel with a monitor that showed Chloe being burned alive. She pressed all the buttons trying to unlock the door; she only succeeded in accidently turning off the speakers and putting an end to hearing all of the screaming.

 

        “Err! What the hell am I supposed to do?” she yelled in frustration. She looked around the lab, almost everyone was dead or evacuated, and some people were trying to put out the fire. She knew that nothing could put out the fire until she willed it so she just kept pushing buttons. Finally she saw a lever through the smoke and pulled it, the door popped open instantly.

 

        She saw inside Chloe screaming and jumping up and down when flames came up from holes all over the floor of the heating chamber. Chloe’s clothing had almost been completely burned off, her legs and arms had severe burns on them. Seeing this Arnina quickly squelched the flames and pulled a shaking Chloe in her arms, also setting out the fire in the lab as well in one big swipe of relief.

 

        “Chloe its okay, I’m here now.” Arnina said to sooth Chloe.

 

        “Thanks Arnina…” Chloe whispered. “How’d you get in here?”

 

        “Lets worry about that later, all that matters is that you’re safe now.” Arnina said.

 

        After about 30 seconds of peace guards filled the room and hulled Arnina and Chloe away, Arnina was too tired to fight anymore. Mixed feeling filled Arnina, she was happy for saving Chloe but she could only imagine what they would do to her now, she would be lucky if they killed her. “My secret is definitely out now.” She thought.

 

        The guards took her strait to Smith’s office, much like her first day there. She remembered perfectly the first time she had seen that monster and how utterly confused she was. The only difference is that Chloe wasn’t with her, they had taken her elsewhere.

 

        “Awe, I thought I would be seeing you soon!” Smith declared with enthusiasm.

 

        “Yeah long time no see.” Arnina muttered.

 

        “Well aren’t you a little trouble maker, you cost me millions in equipment.” He said.

 

        “You can afford it.” She said.

 

        “Yes, I can. But that is not the point. I let you be a guest in my home and you go and do that! Why I ought to turn you over to Fredrick, like I do with all of the other trouble makers. But I am a kind and forgiving person and I will give you another chance. Power like yours is rare and I think I can use it, but if you try anything else like that again off you go. And let me tell you nothing would be left if Fredrick got a hold of you, nothing.” He said with a smile.

 

        Arnina just stared into his cold eyes wondering who this guy Fredrick was. She decided that she didn’t want to find out considering that if Smith was “kind and forgiving” then Fredrick was unimaginable.

 

        He looked at her for a minute like he was trying to figure her out then he signaled the guard and off she went.

 

        She thought she had heard him say when she was down the hall, “I have finally found what I need.”

 

        “Need?” she thought. “I wonder what he is going to do to me now…if normal testing today was this bad…then how is he going to ‘use’ me?” Her worries ceased when she was thrown back into her own room, she had feared that they would move her into a different cell.

 

        “Arnina!” Chloe yelled sitting up from her cot.

 

        “Hey.” said Arnina walking over to Chloe’s to hug her.

 

        “I was so worried!” Chloe declared.

 

        “You? How are your burns?” asked Arnina looking Chloe over.

 

        “I’ll be fine…” Chloe murmured.

 

        “No you won’t! They will probably scar!” Arnina said looking furious.

 

        “Maybe not, Jade could heal me…” Chloe said trying to look hopeful.

 

        “Well…I don’t know Chloe,” Arnina said sitting next to Chloe, her face in her hands. “Something bad might happen…Smith is going to find a way to punish me.”

 

        “Oh Arnina…” said Chloe feeling guilty and utterly helpless. “I’m so sorry, thank you for saving me.”

 

        “No problem, it’s what we do, save each other. I know you would do the same for me. But you shouldn’t have to have been saved, today was not normal testing. They inject us and hook us up to some pretty strange machines…but they never get that close to killing us like that…well unless it is a special occasion or something. I don’t know what this means but it isn’t anything good, maybe we have become more expendable…or maybe there is a time pinch for test results.” Arnina said getting into her problem solving mood.

 

        “Well whatever it is it sucks! What if one of the others gets even more hurt than me, or worse! Arnina what are we going to do?” Chloe said getting really worked up.

 

        “We’ll see tomorrow when we talk to Aaron…or if they take me somewhere else then you will have to talk to him.” Said Arnina wondering what new plans Smith had for her.

 

        “Okay, I’ll talk to him, but you have to go to the court yard! What about fighting class?” asked Chloe.

 

        “Well let’s hope I can…Chloe even if I am doing fighting class I want you to rest for awhile until you’re healed.” said Arnina.

 

        “Right…I am so useless, I can’t even fight anymore!” Chloe said beginning to cry.

 

        “It’s okay, you are so not useless…remember you have super powers?” Arnina said hugging Chloe trying not to touch her burns in the process.

 

        “Right, Super Chloe.” said Chloe with a slight laugh and a pained expression.
