About an hour of walking after the new found person, the group finally came to a stop in front of a huge metal door. "Nora!" Ally called out and a few seconds later the door started rising slowly, eyes watched the dark entrance with caution. Ally looked back at the rest, "Welcome." She stepped inside, her figure disappearing. "Are you sure about this?" Ivy asked as her eyes fluttered over to Terra, "Once we go in we might not come back out." She finished and stared at Sylvester.

Sylvester ignored her warning and walked into the dark, the teenagers stopped themselves, "Zack!" The blue haired boy rushed after the old man with fear on his face. Terra shook her head, "This was a bad idea." She stated. The sky was clear now, the sun radiating its energy on the horizon.

The teenagers walked into a large room, murmurs of speech reaching their ears. Ryan was listening to Sylvester but as soon as he noticed there was more guests he froze. The room was filled with machinery and a couple of beds, Terra remembered this place. People were brought here to make sure they were healthy before the experiments.

"Are my eyes deceiving me?" Ryan smirked maliciously, "Terra, is that really you?" His brown eyes squinted down at his daughter. Terra glared at her father as he stepped away from Sylvester and walked towards her. Sylvester continued rambling not noticing that the person he came for left. "Is this what she went through?" Conner asked quietly to Ally, "No this is the testing center, this is nothing." She crossed her arms. "You came back." Ryan smiled brightly but his eyes didn't shine with joy, they shone with spite.

Terra leaned against a wall while her eyes strolled the view from the window she once wished to escape from. "When I was younger." She shut her mouth as a feeling that she loathed rushed over her. Mary silently watched her from the bed she was perched on, her mouth turned down into a frown. "I used to think why my father didn't treat me the same way I saw others do. At a young age I already knew that the way I was being raised was wrong."

Terra turned her head to stare at Mary, "The bombs had already impacted the earth before I was born, my father, he was always like this. This used to be a lab and it was full of people as you can imagine. When the chaos happened everyone was stuck here for years."

Tan entered the room and locked eyes with Mary before leaning against a wall beside the door. "I think it will be easier if I showed you." The raven haired girl got off the wall and made her way to sit beside Mary, taking her hand in hers.

Chatter echoed around the room as people argued and agreed back and forth. Terra squeezed herself further into a corner as her father decided to make himself known. "Silence!" Some people jumped from the interruption while others shook their head at the man. "I have an idea!" Ryan yelled out once more, "Shut it Ryan!" A woman who looked to be in her early thirties made her way to the front, "When have your ideas ever worked?"

Ryan's face fell into a scowl, "We've been in here for years. Don't you want to leave?" He responded. Whispers flew around the mass of people. "You know we can't do that. It'll be suicide." The woman glowered. Ryan glanced down before his feet lifted, "We have all heard about the people who were stranded outside gaining super human traits." He stared down each person he passed, "I have figured out a way to do it."

A few people's face dropped in shock while others scoffed, "I have determined that with a certain chemical from the bomb residue we could possibly create the same effect of the radiation outside." Ryan lowered his hand into his lab coats pocket, "This will be injected into your bloodstream, after that you just let it take its course."

Ryan kept an important part of the experiment to himself, he didn't need to have more panic and concern when he noticed the many faces looking at him with hope. "So who's first?" His hand still holding up the vial which glowed with a yellow liquid.

THE FIRST MAN

It lasted two months. For a while everyone admired the man's ability of controlling ones mind. That was until the breakdowns happened. He began to kill people, it started slow. People seemed to be seeing things that weren't there, driven to insanity. You can determine the outcome of those that did. A few others walked out the factory, ignoring everyone that tried to stop them, pushing anyone out their way with indescribable strength. Terra saw everything, watched when the man was knocked unconscious by her father and dragged into a room with a white door. He never came back out.
