CHAPTER SIX












Ruth, Nevada
March 26, 1986

" DO YOU BOTH KNOW WHAT HAPPENS WHEN SOMEONE HAS A STROKE? " Dr.Brenner looked at the two girls sitting down. "The blood supply to the brain is cut off"He looked at the scans on the wall. "It scrambles the signals in the brain to the point where the mind can forget how to do things."

"To eat. To speak. To walk"Dr.Brenner said as he leaned on the table. "When you both were attacked last year, I believe that your signals were scrambled in much the same way"He added. "But just as a stroke victim can learn to walk again, I believe you both, too, can return to your full power."

"Your abilities are still in here"Dr.Brenner put his hands on El's cheeks. "You just need to remember"Dr.Brenner then put his hands on Y/n's cheeks, he then removed them and booped her nose.

"If this all happened, why don't we remember?"Y/n looked at Dr.Brenner. "Because you do not want to"He responded as the tape on the TV begins to play. "Our brains have a defense mechanism in place to protect it from bad memories"He said as he sat down beside Y/n.

"From trauma"He added as he looked at the TV. "You both buried these memories long ago"Dr.Brenner said. "Papa.."Y/n said softly as she looked at the TV. "When I was in there—I saw something."

"There was blood"Y/n added as she looked at Dr.Brenner. "So much blood"She said as she frowned. "That was another memory, a—a more powerful one, invading from your subconscious."

"I—I saw something too"El looked at Y/n and Dr.Brenner. "There was blood, but, It was on me, my face, my clothing"El frowned as she felt tears form in her eyes. Dr.Brenner stood up in front of them, he placed one hand on Y/n's shoulder and the other on El. "You both have demons, Eleven and Four."

"You both have demons in your past"He said softly. "That is why we must proceed carefully"Dr.Brenner looked at El. "One step at a time, one memory at a time."

"If we go too fast, I'm afraid you two can become lost in the darkness"He said. "And if you both are lost..so are we all."

Y/n looks at the chip going all the way down to the number 5. She sighs as she furrowed her eyebrows, Y/n put the chip on top of the board again. She watched the chip go all the way down to 2. "Which number are you aiming for?"Peter asked making Y/n turn around.
