Modified: How It All Began (ORIGINAL)

5. Entertainment

I'm slowly pulled from my sleep as the sound of footsteps begin to echo around in my ears, I groan as I lift my head off the pillow expecting Dr Crewe to be at the side but to find nobody in the room, my eyebrows instantly knit together as I was sure I heard footsteps, but then the key slots into the door and is shoved open, I slowly sit up looking at Dr Crewe suspiciously as she settles the needle into her palm again but she returns my look with a confused one of her own.
I look away and decide to shrug it off as me being paranoid, I sigh as I watch her flick the needle again when a thought pops into my head,
"Could I get something to do in here maybe, it's actually quite boring being on your own all day within four walls, oh and maybe a mirror too" I finish with a false smile pushed towards Dr Crewe, she eyes me warily before she wipes at my arm and pushes the needle in,
"Maybe" she says, I raise my eyebrows in surprise as she settles a plate of food beside me and turns towards the door, I watch as she walks out and locks it behind her, I stare at the door as I hear her footsteps falter down the corridor.
I feel giddy as I notice a mountain of mango, apple and pineapple, I absolutely love my fruit.
They are quickly shoved down my throat as my mind wanders to what they could possibly give me, for the first time in days I'm actually excited about something, even if it is something to occupy myself while I wait for my knight in shining armour, I scoff at the thought.

Im caught away in my thoughts while laying on my back staring at the ceiling when I hear the footsteps again, I roll my eyes as I hear the lock churning, could I have really been thinking that long?
I rise up and out of bed as Dr Crewe grips her hand around my arm and guides me back to the double doors down the corridor, I'm put in the same position again as they rid me of the bandages, they must have been some what healed as they don't replace them with fresh ones, that's one less thing to worry about then, for some reason I was compelled to ask a very specific question.
"Have you got my friend lizzy by any chance?" I ask a bit of hope in my voice, but then again I hope she isn't here.
Dr Crewe comes over to me and leans down so I can see her face.
"When you are fully formed you will acquire a companion" she says almost robotically as she stands and resumes what she was doing. Millions of thoughts fill my head at the thought of seeing my friends face again.
I'm removed from the table which disrupts my train of thought and I'm took to my room with a plate of food as usual.
I walk in to be surprised by a box on my bed and a full body mirror on the opposite wall of my bed. I rush over to the box and scan through it, there's loads of colouring books drawing books, and next to the box is a pencil case, I open It to find crayons, pencils, watercolour paint, paint brushes, rubbers, a pencil sharpener and a pair of child safety scissors.
I look towards the mirror I'm horrified to what I'm seeing, my face has somewhat slimmed down and so has my body my hair is a mess in a low bun and my eyes has lost its sparkle, I breathe out as I turn around to see that there is two big dark red blood patches in the centre of my back along with two bumps which I assume are my puney wings.
I turn and grab the scissors laying on the bed, I look at them then towards the door,
"Fuck it" I mumble as I shrug off my shirt and lay it on the bed, I cut two holes big enough to fit my wings through and pull the shirt back on, I feel my wings automatically pop out of the holes in my shirt. I huff as I turn around and do the same to my trousers, I have to help my tail through the hole as my coordination skills aren't very good at the moment.
I sigh as I drop my self onto the bed, I look down as I make my little tail curl around my bum, I snicker at the weird looking thing.
I then stare too long and become disgusted by the thing and I instantly move it behind me, I feel a tear drop onto my hand with a few others, I sniffle as I curl up on the bed and squeeze my eyes shut listening to the shaky sounds of my breathing.

I blink myself awake with groggy eyes, I touch my eyes to find them crusty with dried up tears, I go towards the sink and quickly wash my face as a sudden urge of an itch sparks on my back, I try reaching through the holes in my top to get them but instead feel little pin pricks on the base of my wings, pin feathers great.
I huff in annoyance as I grab a colouring book and eat the rest of the food I left, I'm not as hungry as I was before, before the hunger pains was so bad it would hurt if I didn't eat every hour, but now I can go at least a few more hours without food, which I find amazing because being constantly hungry isn't a good feeling.
I'm in the middle of looking for another colour for my drawing I did when I hear voices from outside the door. I stop and stare at the door as my hearing strains to listen to the sounds of the voices.
"Yes I get that- well I'm outside her room of co- she can't anything out of the damn room it's soundproof you tool- fine fine I'll come to you then we will talk about the matter at hand, ok bye" then there are footsteps leading away, what in the hell did I just hear, I look down at my drawing as I think back to when I first came here and when Dr Crewe used to be able to come into the room without waking me up, is it coincidence or is my hearing getting way better than I thought it was.
I look back back to the colours and carry on with what I was doing, I really do think too much sometimes, or was I not thinking enough.

=========================================================

Seems as though she is underestimating herself here, is there anything else going to change about her or is more terrifying this going to start growing out of her?
