My battered and beaten body shivered in fear, as the sound of loud foot falls filled my ears. The metal chains that bounded me clinked when I moved my knees closer to my chest and curled into a ball. The air smelled thickly of blood, despair, urine and agony, inside my dirty cell.

My neighboring prisoner... no that's not the right word. What they called us wasn't as nice. They called us experiments, things, pets, rats that didn't deserve to be alive. My neighboring prisoner let out a whimper as the loud sounds of foot falls grew closer.

I squeezed my legs tighter to my chest, to the point it felt like I was trying to disappear into myself. The sound of the foot falls stopped in front of my cell. My heart was racing and pounding in my chest, that sounded like a drum to my ears, for the fear of what I knew was to come.

The soud of my cell door opening filled the room. I wanted to cry and shout and scream. I didnt, no couldnt go back to that room. But deep down I knew they would drag me, beat me or knock me unconscious until I was in that room with those people.

Two men entered my cell and unlocked my chains. I started struggling kicking and punching where ever I could but I couldn't hit neither of them my body was to weak. I started screaming, pleading with them to let me go.

"Shut up!" One of the men snarled.

But that only caused me to struggle harder until my foot had managed to connect with one of their faces. A string of curses left the man's mouth before he grabbed my greasy and dirty auburn hair. I cried out in pain when he pulled at it until he quickly pushed my head to the cold stone floor with force.

White hot pain shot through my head before it became numb. I barely noticed the men had grabbed my forearms and were dragging me to the room that me and my fellow experiments all hated. My vision was blurry and I could faintly hear the men's laughs as they dragged me to the dreaded room.

My vision was slowly disappearing as I welcomed the darkness, just as I was dragged into the room.

I sat up, my body shaking and my forehead covered in sweat. I frantically looked around until my body relaxed when I realized I was in my bedroom and not in the room.

I'm safe. I thought to myself.

Taking the bottom of my shirt, I wiped sweat from my forehead along with the lingering memory of my nightmare before sighing. Taking a glance at my alarm clock that sat on a wooden night stand beside my bed, I groaned when it read 4:30 in the morning.

It looks like I wont be getting anymore sleep tonight.

Unedited. I know this chapter isn't much but it is essential to the story.
