"ANMINISTER HIM ANOTHER JOLT"

The next morning Milo found himself at the same table, with the same people.

They were eating their breakfast like normal.

However, someone was missing.

Otis.

'They got him', Milo thought as he glared at the guards that circled the hall like wolves.

His eyes continuously darted between each one.

They seemed to be looking back at him, monitoring him.

They knew.

They understood that he saw what they were desperatly hiding.

Milo had not slept a wink.

This showed through the dark patches that decorated his eyes and the shabby manner of his brown and blonde hair, which stuck out in many directions.

Milo hadn't said a word.

His knees were bouncing nervously, as he bite at his fingernails.

He was waiting for the moment the guards would make the wrong move.

One tiny slip up.

"Milo?"

His head snapped towards Bonnie's worried expression, the other two wearing the same emotion.

"Are you okay?", Bonnie continued.

Ignoring her question, he leaned in closer, a wild look in his eyes.

"Have none of you noticed that Otis is gone?", he inquired.

Tim, Sam and Bonnie shared looks.

"No? He probably just slept in", Sam replied, shrugging.

Milo shook his head, leaning closer.

"The guards took him"

"And why would they do that?", Tim inquired, scoffing.

Milo glances over his surrounding before he answered.

"Last night, Otis took me to their lab and I saw this".

He reached down from under the table and pulled out the diagram he had drawn in the depths of his insomnia.

He had drawn the nightmare he'd seen in the tank.

The three of them stared wide-eyed at the illustration, wondering how Milo could've created something so vivid and disturbing. 

"The guards saw us, I managed to get away but they got Otis", he continued.

No one said a word.

"You know, this is a pretty crappy joke Milo", Bonnie spat, glaring at him
Milo's eyes widened.
