My mind is like a tunnel, the further you go into it the darker it gets.

Back in the rainbow room, I sit at the table, continuing my drawing from before

Back in the rainbow room, I sit at the table, continuing my drawing from before. As I sketch I feel someone's eyes on me. I turn around and spot 002 glaring at me. I smirk, knowing that I get on his nerves.

He stomps up to me and grabs me by the collar of my shirt. "You think this is funny?" He asks in a stern voice. "Hilarious." I state. He growls and throws me at the wall, pinning me there with his powers. The kids stare at us.

"You got some guts." He states, pacing back in forth in front of me. "If I throw I stick, will you leave?" I ask him, tilting my head to the side. It just makes him more angry. He stomps up to me, grabbing my face. "You little-" At that moment I get into his head and show him his worst fear.

He back away in shock and drops to the ground. His powers lift off of me and I slowly walk up to him. "Don't talk to me again, or we're gonna have a problem." I mutter. I smirk before walking back to the table and continuing to draw. Some of the kids look at me in shock, and a little fear. Peter, however, is looking at me with pure joy.

After a few minutes go by I spot Peter walking up to me. He sits down in the chair next to me and watches me draw. "It was funny to see you put him down like that." Peter whispers to me and I chuckle. "He deserves it."

Peter turns to look at me completely. "There's something about you that's different from the others. What is it?" He asks. "I'm not brainwashed by Brenner." I state, turning to look him in the eye. "No, that's not it. Something about your powers."

I keep myself contained, not letting him see my fear. "They're just the same as everyone else." I tell him, turning back to my drawing.

Later that day I sit in my room, throwing a ball against the wall to keep my brain occupied

Later that day I sit in my room, throwing a ball against the wall to keep my brain occupied. Suddenly the door bursts open and two orderlies drag me out of the room.

"What's going on?" I ask as I stumble down the hallway.

They push me into a room, Brenner sits in a chair. Two more orderlies stand in the room, including Peter. I give him a quick glance and he shrugs.

"I told you not to." Brenner says, standing up and walking towards me. He bends down to whisper in my ear. "You shouldn't have used your powers. You disobeyed me." He backs away and nods to the orderlies. They grab me by the arms and strap me to the chair in the room. "Wait- what?" I ask, confused. "You know what you did. I saw it on the camera."

Fuck. He knows about the fight with 002.

The cold metal object presses to my temple. Brenner nods and steps out of the room. A shock, right into my head. God that shit hurts. I screamed my lungs out, I think I lost my voice in the process. I passed out immediately after the pain stopped.

"I'll take her back to her room." I hear a faint voice say. I feel my body being picked up by strong arms which later set me down on my bed.

"I hope you feel better." The voice says again and I feel a soft kiss being pressed to my temple. The door closes and I completely slip into unconsciousness.

I woke the next morning with a massive headache, the aftermath of the shock therapy

I woke the next morning with a massive headache, the aftermath of the shock therapy.

It's funny that Brenner thinks shock therapy is really going to make a difference. This just shows me how sick Brenner really is.

I sit in my bed staring at the wall for what feels like hours when my door opens, I almost couldn't hear it. I feel the bed then dip down next to me causing me to look over, only to come face to face with Peter. "How are you feeling?" He asks, his hands laid on his lap. "Like shit. I got a massive headache." I mutter. "That's what the shock therapy does to you."

I look over at him. "You would only know that if it happened to yourself. Have you-?" "Yes." He cuts me off.

"But why? You're an orderly." I ask. "Even we make our mistakes, 019." He mutters, turning to face me. It looks like so many thoughts are going through his head but I can't seem to read them. We sit in silence for a moment before he stands up. "Well, I should go." "Okay. Bye, Peter." I look up at him and see a bit of pity in his eyes. He gives me a small smile and leaves the room.
