I sat on the metal bed in my room like I normally do waiting for the doctors to tell me if it's time for practice or tests. An hour has passed and it was now 9:36 and as the minutes and hours ticked by and no one came I started to get curious. I silently crept out of the rusted metal bed and looked through the silent halls of the lab. Silence. I walked out of my bland room and walked down one of the quiet hallways that I knew the doctors used to come in and out of the lab and nobody came. I tried to silently tip toe through the lab and found an unlocked door that lead me to the basement and in the dark moist corner there was a sewer tunnel. I looked back to see if anyone was following me but no one was there even when the alarm went off. It felt like everything was still that was until I crawled through the tunnel and left the other side that's when people were everywhere. I ran into the woods to escape them but they followed. I ran towards the end of the woods and ran into a van it was bigger than my room at the lab. I decided to go inside to hide from the doctors and when I turned around and closed the door there was a little boy with an uneven buzz cut staring at me
" AHHH IT'S A WICH" he screamed running into a room and slamming his door closed so hard that if bounced back open. " little boy?" " stay back or I'll dump water on you and you will melt" " who are you?" " I'm Eddie and I said stay back" he looked scared and confused and I could tell that he was about to start crying. " what's wrong little boy" " what's wrong is that a stranger with devil wings just came into my home!" He screamed. I looked back at my wings " would you like to touch them" I said sticking my wing out to him. He was hesitant at first " will it hurt" the little boy asked " no " i simply said in a response. Ever so slowly he reached out and touched the black feathers that coated my wings " woah" his eyes were wide and he looked like a child on Christmas Day opening up all the presents under the tree " were you born with these" he asked then looking up at me patiently waiting for a response " yes" " you don't talk a lot " he said with a small hint of curiosity in his voice like he was waiting for me to start speaking but my response was in the form of a shrug " so um I told you who I am but you never told me your name" he said. I stuck out my arm and showed him my wrist " WOW IS THAT A TATTOO" he screamed at the top of his lungs. " no it's my name " " your name is 6" he asked I nodded in response " can I give you a new name" I nodded again " ok, ohh and then I can introduce you to my uncle wade he would really like you" he said excitedly. A few hours passed until another person walked through the door " hey Ed's i got us some stuff for dinner would you want to he-"
He stopped mid sentence after seeing Eddie trying to teach me go fish " EDDIE COME HERE NOW GET AWAY FROM THAT THING" he screamed " what this is my friend" Eddie replied with a saddened expression " how is that your friend" the man said " we just are " Eddie said not knowing what to do. As the two family members were talking I hid behind Eddie on the verge of tears and having panic attack when everything in the starts to float and my nose started bleeding.
" WHAT THE HELL" the man screamed and that snapped me out of the trance I was in causing the furniture to fall " ok i don't know what you are or who you are but can you please explain what that was" the man said simply sitting down on the old couch " it's my gift" i said " papa said it's good" the man's face went from irritated to concerned " girl how old are you" " i don't know " " what's your name" I stuck out my wrist again but the man's face didn't move " ok you can stay here but the second you hurt Eddie or me you are out do you understand " I nodded my head
