Red Sun

Chapter 2

The days continued on, same as always, wake up, eat, tests, free time, eat, sleep, over and over and over again. Even so Norman still couldn't get his mind off that girl, who was she? What was he doing here?

It was stupid to be so caught up in something so small and insignificant but Nroman figured he just needed something to help distract his mind from the fact that he was sold off to become a human experiment. And that girl happens to be his best bet.

Finally he saw her again during one of the tests, like last time, she was talking to one of the scientists.

Norman didn't realize he was staring till she looked back at him and the two made eye contact.

Her eyes were a piercing green and Norman felt shivers travel up his spine.

Norman immediately looks away, cheeks turn a crimson color. He was sure what had just happened, but what he did know was that his curiosity about that girl only grew stronger.

After the scientist was done talking with the mysterious girl he took Norman back to his room.

While laying in his bed, all Norman could think about was the girl and her green eyes. If Ray was here Norman knew he would be making fun of him for being so obsessed over some girl he's never even met.

God, he was a mess.

But why wouldn't he be in a place like this?

His meal arrived from the window but Norman was too lost in his head to notice, resulting in an angry scolding by the speaker person.

Norman would be lying if he said he didn't miss the food from Gracefield, really just everything from there, it was the perfect cage, though that was the point. The food here was gray and bland, a great contrast to the rich and nutrients packed food he was used to.

It won't last long, Norman will find a way to escape and find Ray and his family. They'll be freed from the wreched system. For now he'll just play along.

Suddenly his door opened, interrupting his thought and causeing the albino to look over at who came in. It was a scientist.

"Come 22194, Peter Ratri has requested your presence."

That made Norman's mood dampen

Norman got up and followed the scientist. He did his best to ignore the pained screams and iron smelling blood.

Norman would save them, he was going to save everyone he could.

Norman clenched his fists to hide his shaking hands

The scientist led him into a room away from everything. He opened the door for Norman and motioned for him to go inside.

The room was like an office, it had a desk in the middle and some bookshelves lined the walls.

In front of the desk was Peter Ratri and that girl he's been hung up on.

Norman's eyes widened slightly, it was the first time he saw the girl up close and not from a distance.

"Hello Norman, have you been enjoying your stay?" Peter greeded. Norman wanted to punch him in the face. Not just for the terrible greeting but it certainly helped.

The girl just looked to the side, picking up on his bad mood. Peter just kept that stupid smile.

"This is my daughter, Emma Ratri, she'll be the one looking after you for now on." He explained.

She was a Ratri!? He'd been obsesseing over a Ratri!?

Emma gave him an ackered smile. Ateadt she had the descencey to not act like everything was going to be just dandy, unlike like Peter.
