Shot

Chapter 5

           Control? Remember? What? That is what my brain is going through at this moment. I was worried about what that poem my mom made meant, but at the other hand do I want to know. The back story of that poem could change the way I see my mother to this day. So many things just were running through my mind.

           Unfortunately, there was no time for slacking off and thinking about that poem. The shot line was shortening and I was coming closer to my future. I knew that there was a chance that I had to leave my family and friends, but that is what everyone went through, right? My heart was racing and my palms were sweating. I just felt like a piece of me would be taken away with the shot.

            I saw Karen in the other line and there was no expression. I knew that was her nervous face, but I never thought that she would be this tensed. Karen was always my friend who was laid-back. She had no worries and at the end of the day she was chill. Then again she always kept her feelings away from the people who cared about her the most. I guess right now I am trying to hide my fear too. As I took one step my heart started to beat a little quicker. My head kept telling me that I was not following my true path and my heart was telling me nothing. As my thoughts moved through my mind I reached the start of my beginning. I was next in line to get The Shot.

" Emily Carter, please go to room 326." said the guard.

I could barely walk and I was trembling with fear.

I saw the number fly by me " 320, 322, 324, and 326."

       The guard put out the finger-scanning device and i got my fingerprint checked yo make sure I was the real Emily Carter. As the door opened the guard said " sit in the chair and wait for the Iaculater( Shot Giver). He will give you anesthesia and then you will be given the shot." 

              I walked in to see iron walls and ceiling and pretty much iron everything. The room made me feel like I was in prison or something. There were no windows and the door was locked. There was a machine that had the word memories on it and next to it was a sharp and long needle sticking out of a tube connected to the machine. After I took a quick look around I sat in the chair. I was not expecting to be here so quickly. It felt like just yesterday i turned 12. I looked around one more time to see the door creaking open. in came a man with a mask and gloves. he had a tiny container with pills that said amnesia. The Iaculater said to swallow a one pill. After that I was out like a light.

Now this is where my true journey starts.
