I turned left at another corridor. My gun strapped to my waist, and knife in my pocket. I was scared and wheezing heavily. I knew as good as ever that my friends were dead and that I wouldn't make it out of here alive either. So I sat on the cold tiled ground and tried to cry, but I just couldn't . Trying to cry gave me a massive headache instead. I hammered the floor with my fist. It couldn't be over; not now. Not now of all times. I wanted to see my sister again. As soon as I heard footsteps, I shot up and ran, but I didn't in the slightest bit have enough energy to keep running. I turned a corner and fell backwards. It was him.

The blinding lights behind him cast a dark shadow over me. The only thing I could see was his sharpened teeth, his greased back hair, and his menacing smile. My heart was beating wildly, and I felt as lifeless as a rock. I stood up shaking, and pointed my gun at him.
"Hello Ashten" He said with a smooth, calm voice, while walking slowly closer to me. I stepped back hesitantly. I had to force my legs to move.
"S-STAY AWAY FROM ME!" I yelled; my eyes widened and watery.
"Listen Ashten, all I want to do is take you back to the lab and do some more assessments, and the you can see your friends-"
"I know they're dead. I'm not stupid." I snapped.

I was sick of negotiation. I ran back through the corridor that I came through, and glanced at the window. Behind me, two men in red army uniforms had loaded M-16's pointed at my back. I started getting a sick feeling. I knew I was trapped, but not completely.
"There is nowhere to go Ashten. Do you realize that if you do this, I will hunt you. And I will kill the people you still care for." Marco stopped, then laughed under his breathe while still walking closer to me.
"I bet Cameren really misses you right now. Do you want to see her? Well maybe... Just maybe, in the next 96 hours she'll be dead in a ditch somewhere." I caught a glimpse of his burning crazed eyes in the darkness of the storage building. He then thrust his hand out and said.
"Now...give me the gun." Without thinking, I thrust all my force into the window. Next thing I knew, I was falling. I noticed the broken glass around me, and air whizzing past my ears. Then I made an abrupt stop and soon blacked out. I couldn't move.
