Code: Error

* ~ Chapter 9 ~ *

Reading everything about this location made me weirded out. Apparently, there was something about a serial number. It was kind of like a phone number. 0-400 were the least dangerous and had no enchancements, but 401-999 were the most dangerous, likely had enhancements, and would have more experiments and tests performed. The second three digits were which group you were in. The higher the group, the more number of and possible inhumane experiments will be done on the victim. The last 4 was how strong you really were. 0-6000 were the weakest, while were the more stronger ones and are ultimately containted in a more "deserted" area of the laboratory. It says that Expt. 999-999 has the serial number .

Damn, what's with all the nines?!

Looks like I really was dangerous.

I forgot to see my date of entry.

I looked at it.

Expt. 999-999

DOE: 6/11/16

WAIT, WHAT?! 2 YEARS OLD?! Let's see if I can see names, too. I searched it, and there it was. I typed in the numbers and it only shows first names. The name that popped us was Ronella.

......

That's my name...

NO.

This is most definitely not me; I'm not the only girl named Ronella. But if this isn't someone else then... that's me. This can only mean a couple of things– I was in fact NOT born with powers, I was sent to that stupid fucking lab, and I am the experiment on the loose. Not good at all. Ate was actually right.

"What in the Look What You Made Me Do am I reading?!"

I heard my sister talking. Maybe I should ask her something.

I quietly snuck into her room and jumped on her. Looks like I scared the crap out of her.

"GAH- WHAT THE HELL?" Her face looked pale, but I knew she wasn't sick, she was just startled. "What was that for?" I was chuckling a lot, soon it turned into full blown laughter. She began to laugh back. That's just us together. Although, I gave her the kitten eyes for a little bit. Never have I ever wanted to tell her about this lab thing even more. Something in me just NEEDED to let her know about this.

"Erm, Ate..?" I tilted my head to the side.

"Uh-huh?"

"I need to ask you something. Like now." I said this in a low voice and crossed my arms.

She blinked about six times hummingbird fast. "Ask away, sis."

I sighed. "Did you guys send me to that lab?"

"...What?"

"Take a quick look." I held up the screenshots up in her face. "WHAT. IS. THIS?!"

"I really don't know! If I knew, I would've told you already!"

There was a bit of awkwardness in the void of silence. All of a sudden, my sister's ringtone just CAME ON SO LOUD. Her ringtone was Should've Said No by Taylor Swift. The way it just suddenly came on made us both jump high as fuck and fall down hard. We both laughed very hard at that. It seems it was Ate's friend. She answered the call and motioned for me to leave the room, which is normal considering she usually wants me to leave whenever she was on the phone.

Roughly 30 seconds later, I heard the front door open. I bolted down to greet my parents.

"Hey Ronnie!" my mom said this as I hugged her and dad.

Dad chuckled. "Where's your sister?" I pointed upstairs.

"She's on a phone call. Typical. You know how she's usually laughing like a hyena during those calls. But I mean, I can't be talking; I always sound like I'm getting possessed whenever I'm on a phone call with a friend, or I'm goofing off at school. Generally and genuinely, I wonder what Ate's school life is like. Middle school is chaotic, but what about high school?"

I had to catch my breath from how fast I talked. As usual, I was a chatterbox– I could never stop talking. Even my family commented on it, from the speed I talk to how much I would yap and ramble about. Otherwise, everything was normal.

"Well, she's always complaining about how boring it is. That's typical from Kyler. Kyler wishes she were with you. Also, she does find it fun too. Recently, her cooking class let her make whatever she wanted. She went wild today." Dad was chuckling as he was saying this.

My mom nudged him. "Well, we both complained in high school. Then we cried once it ended and we had to go to college." The three of us chuckled as Ate came down the stairs and hugged us all.

"Hi, Ky!" Mom exclaimed.

"Ay, Kyler!" Dad squeezed her. "We just got back, but time for bed."

........

About an hour later, I was secretly on a call with Dexter. Charlie was already asleep so she wasn't on the call.

"You found any new info yet?"

I nodded. "Here are some more screenshots," I said, as I sent the screenshots. Dexter's eyes widened.

"You mean to tell me, THAT YOU WERE AN EXPERIMENT AT THAT LAB?! NO WAY. I can already see that you have a loving home life– why would they just send you to a laboratory? Places like those are no joke. Labs are inhumane AS SHIT. And the fact they said monsters and robots are real there just scares me. I don't like this...." Dexter shook his head. "You know, for someone who only has researched for a few days, you really have made some great progress."

"Thanks, Dexter," I said. "Once I get the time, I'm going to find this lab myself. Maybe we could prove everything."

"Okay, sounds good enough. I'll take Charlie with me, she's always up for any kind of adventure."

"I am too, but I gotta get some sleep. Goodnight!"

He said goodnight back, and I hung up. I put away my phone and decided to sleep.

Dexter was right. I did make some progress. And the fact Ate never answered my question and seemingly lied to me didn't help.

........

My line of completion is not yet at full completion. I still have more to wade through before I find my true past.
