Once Maya got to the hotel I rushed out to avoid getting attacked by Malachai, sprinting up the 3 flights of stairs, hearing his heavy footsteps follow me not too far behind.

I got to mine and Maya's room and hid behind the door, waiting to attack once he walked in, yet of course he predicted it, throwing a blade through the peephole between the door and the wall, hitting my arm and I hiss at the pain, running out at him and throwing myself onto him, pushing him down and strangling him with all my force. I blocked his hands with my knees, pushing them down as I put all my force into my grip around his neck.

"OI" I hear Maya yell but Colton pulls her back, "Hey let them fight" he chuckled but she snatched away from him, "You touch me ONE MORE TIME, and you'll regret ever thinking of it" she growled at him and he stepped back with his hands in the air in surrender.

She walked over to me, "As much as i'd like to see you kill him, i'd also like to come back as a group of four because if we don't, we're all as good as dead" she rips me off of him and he coughs a little as I growl. "I hope you know I would've fucking killed you" I snarled at him, "Choking me already? Shit you move fastttt" he smirked and chuckled, getting closer to me, "But let's get one thing straight, always know, that i'll be the one to kill you before you even get to plan my death" he whispered into my ear.

"I don't give two shits about your hatred or rivalry towards each other, just fucking load up the file on the laptop so we can see what sort of shit goes on during the experiments" Maya raises her voice.

I rip the blade out of my arm and and wrap a top around it to stop the bleeding as everyone else heads to the other room to look at the laptop. I follow behind shorty and sit next to everyone else on the bed, in the dark room.

Malachai grabs the laptop and brings it over to us. The screen loaded up with two videos, "Subject 268 and subject 0z12?" Colton reads out, "Open 268 first" I suggest and Malachai clicks onto it.

"Is it rolling?" a muffled, masculine voice asks. The camera was pointed at a glass wall which peaked into a room. The room had the middle aged man who spoke inside of it, wearing a scientist-like outfit. Next to him was an older man, strapped to a metal table with a gag in his mouth. The rest of the room was empty, grey, stone walls and flooring, nothing else except a side table with something on it and a white light above the two.

The camera shakes a little, suggesting that the person holding it was nodding to confirm what the man behind the glass had asked.

"H.S.I.70 test subject 268, Wednesday, May 26" the man began to speak as the other man struggled on the table, trying to scream through the gag on his mouth.

"What the fuck-" Colton reads my mind and everyone else's i'm sure.

We watch as the scientist looking guy reached over to the side table and picked up a syringe from it. He lifted it up, pointing it towards the light, revealing its deep purple colour. He flicked the syringe once with his finger and turned to the man, smirking towards him as the man screams through the gag in terror. He wiggled about frantically as if it was going to help.

The scientist got closer to the man, choking him to stop the constant wiggling. Once the man stopped his frantic wiggling, the scientist ran his finger along the inside of the older man's arm before sticking the syringe in. He then began to slowly inject the drug into him.
