Chapter one QuestionsA Chapter by The FallenChapter One Questions Cora
"Fine then don't answer the question, but in time I will find out." He said. "Celeste has a room for you, She will escort you there in a few minutes." He tore his gaze from mine and exited the room without another word. I looked at my wrist, I pulled the sleeves off my arm and looked at my crescent moon tattoo. My hands instantly went to my neck, I felt the circular pendant dangling from the chain on my neck. I sighed happily, I was glad he hadn't taken it off. The door opened, and the brown haired girl entered.
"Follow me." She said. I yanked the sleeve back down over my wrist and exited the room, following closely behind her. I looked around desperate for a escape. I didn't want to be locked up in here and become a science experiment. There were only a few doors, and most of them were heavily guarded with guards with black shirts. I growled, I couldn't take them all on.
The girl stopped in front of a white door. "I hope you enjoy your stay here, Cora." She said with a smile.
"What's your name?" I asked.
"Celeste." Right, Asher had mentioned that, it must have slipped my mind. I opened the door and entered my new room. A single bed stood in the middle of the room, and a black comforter laid over it. The door shut quickly, I ran back and looked out the window, Celeste looked at me and smiled then took off. I grabbed the doorknob and jiggled it. Locked. I growled at my stupidity, how could I trust a scientists assistant. I punched the wall, and instantly pulled back my arm and cradled it in my other arm. That was stupid, I will admit. If only I was still dead, If only he had never saved me. I felt like I was a caged animal, sure I wasn't human but I didn't deserve to be treated this way. I carefully un-hooked my necklace and looked at it in the palm of my hand.
"I'm sorry Dad." I kissed the necklace and then placed it back on my neck. This was one of many reasons I wanted to be dead. Now that I was alive and stronger than before, I will attempt to save my father even if it kills me again. I looked down at my feet, my combat boots still attached to them, I smirked. I reached into the leg of the boots and pulled out a knife. I held the knife firmly in my hand and turned to the door. I shoved the knife in the hey hole and twisted. My other hand pulled open the door. "They really should check their patients for weapons." I giggled and peered out into the hallway. The guards were still posted at every exited in the halls. I growled and looked around. Come on Cora, your better then this! Think! I ordered myself. I looked up at the lamps that hung from the ceiling, I looked around once more before jumping into mid-air and landing on the top of one. The next one was only a few feet away, if I could only jump onto it. I eased myself towards the edge of the lamp and pushed myself off. I landed gracefully onto of the next one. Just keep doing this and your out of here. I thought to myself. © 2013 The FallenAuthor's Note
