My Dark Scientist.

Noelani.

I woke up in a dark room with a little pink night light illuminating the room just a tad bit though. My eyes adjust to the room then something in the shadows of the room catches my eye. It appears to be a figure small for a human but huge for an animal. "Hell no" I say jumping to my feet sprinting out of the room. Im black black enough to know when it's time to haul ass with no questions asked. If you thought I was the "who's there?" "hello?" kind of person you are HIGHLY mistaken. Now I really regret running from that room because now I'm in an even worse situation. I'm stuck in a long dark corridor with rows of doors littering each side of the hallway. I've been sprinting for at least 20 minutes. Whew look at what adrenaline make a bitch do. "Lost?" a deep velvety voice comes from somewhere. I search for the body belonging to this voice but to my dismay there isn't one. "Little one why aren't you in bed?" The disembodied voice says again but its weird because I know the person this voice belongs to but where is the person? Something doesn't feel right about this voice because it like the voice wasn't meant to have a body like he was purposely doing this. I'm a highly spiritual person but that doesn't mean that I'm fearless when it comes to situations like this. I do believe that beings exist upon us taking form of regular humans and they have the ability to disconnected there voice from their bodies and communicate with people through their mind. These beings also can touch you without you even being anywhere near them. And there is nothing at all you can do about it. I snap out of my thoughts to find myself in front of a cracked door, candlelight flickering from inside the room. How the hell did I get here? I peek inside the room only to screech in terror. There he was My teacher dismembering the girl from earlier. "Why'd you have to be so curious?" he say in a weird monotone voice. Then just like that I'm back in the room I was in previously staring at the ceiling while bright rays of sunlight shine through the window. It must have been a dream. I hope it was. I'd definitely have to put getting a Bible and a Cross on my list of things to do. "Goodmorning Noelani" Mr. Amatulli says standing in the doorway shirtless holding a tray of food. "Goodmorning Mr. Amatulli." I say still a little shaken up about my dream last night. "Giovanni" he says looking agitated. Oh no did I seriously piss him off already? "Sir?" I ask confused. "Don't call me Mr. Amatulli its Giovanni." He says. Well sorry dang I just wanted to be respectful. "Okay sorry Mr. Giovanni" I say already feeling bad for offending him. "It's fine, did you sleep okay?" he asks "yes sir" "didn't sound like it" he retort making me freeze. "What do you mean sir?" "Judging your screams even a death person could conclude that your night was anything but good well unless it was a little..... Too good" He says winking at me making me immediately embarrassed. "No I would never sir that's inappropriate and disrespectful to you and your home" "Oh doll it would be anything but disrespectful, I'd actually be quiet ... .pleased" he says slowly walking towards me with a devious smirk plastered across face. With every step he takes I scoot further away scared of what his intentions were. From an outsider's perspective it would seem like he was just bringing me breakfast but from my perspective and judging by his facial expression he didn;t care anything about the breakfast. I think he wants to kill me. I'm too young, how could I be so dumb. He takes one predator-like step towards me before I go toppling off the other side of the bed. Embarrassing? Yes. Embarrassed about falling off the bed? No. Embarrassed about falling off the bed head first in only a t-shirt with absolutely nothing on under it? Hell yeah. Should you jump into a volcano after this? Hell Freaking Yeah. As I'm laying on the floor sulking in embarrassment because I'm sure he saw my privates judging by the way I fell. As i'm cursing myself for falling the way I did I see him standing above me chuckling. "And you did this for?" he says stoically. I didn't respond due to my embarrassment. "Im sorry sir" croak out still warning to jump into a volcano. "For?" "you didn't see.....me?" I ask feeling my embarrassment start to be replaced by relief. "I did." he says making every bit of relief I thought I had flee. My relief starts coming back when I realize that maybe he didn't see my privates, maybe he's saying he saw me fall. "If you're asking me if I saw you fall then yes, If you're asking me if I saw your ass along with your pussy the answer is also yes" he says as if that is not a problem at all. "Oh no" I mutter, sprinting to the door closest to me and going into the room which turns out to be a closet. I turn the lights on and I'm greeted with the largest closet I've ever seen in my life. This was no regular closet this was the kind of closet I always imagined fashion models and celebrities to have. There were ceiling high shelves. The kind of shelfs you would have to have a ladder to reach the top shelf even if you were 6'10" you would still need assistance. "So when do you plan of exiting the closet princess?" he asks but me still terrified of him I chose not to answer. Instead I located a door on the other side of the closet so I opened it immediately my eyes are assaulted with a blinding white light. Upon my eyes focusing and adjusting to the bright lights I notice row after row after row of glass boxes with actual HUMANS inside of them, some looking relatively healthy for a prisoner but still looking bad and some looking as if they've been locked always here for years. One locks eyes with me and begins pounding on the glass screaming for me to help them, the other joining in as well. Me being the empath that I am, I began searching for something I could unlock the boxes with. I find a ring with at least 50 keys dangling from it. I sprint over to the first box trying to stick the different keys into the keyhole until one finally slides in perfectly. "If you turn that fucking key Noelani I can assure you everyone in here will witness you getting that pretty little ass of yours spanked raw." Giovanni says close enough to my ear that I can feel his warm breath fanning onto my neck. "Give me the keys" he orders. Slowly sliding the key from the door while staring into the eyes of the young boy trapped inside. My heart shatters as all hope leaves his eyes and tears start to form. "What did he ever do wrong?" I ask infuriated what could a little boy, a child ever do so wrong? "I'm not paid to feel bad for what I do princess" he says grabbing my shoulders making me turn towards him. "W-what do you do?" I ask on the verge of tears. "I cannot disclose that Noelani" "You're a monster" I say slapping him. In the blink of an eye I'm lifted up by my neck but the thing is nobody is touching me. At all. Were my suspicions true? Was he the exact creature I read about? Squirming and clawing at the nonexistent hand wrapped around my neck I hear Giovanni say "a monster is a bit generous love, I'm worse" I go crashing to the floor holding my stinging neck. Giovanni yanks me to my feet dragging me back to the room by my collar. "I want you bent over the bed by the time I get back." He says leaving the room and leaving me scared and in shock. As soon as I heard his footsteps reaching further away I immediately ran to the window in the room looking out of it to see if I could use it to escape. Upon reaching the window my jaws completely drop. It appeared as if I was on the third floor but that's not the problem, the problem was that there was nothing around at all. Not a single sign of life there weren't even birds in the sky; everything was abandoned, empty and old then it hit me. The ghost town that nobody came back alive from. Teens mostly would either get drunk and wander off here or would go thrill seeking and I can definitely tell you they got sobered up real fast and they definitely got the thrill they were looking for. That's not what I'm worried about though because I'm the one in here now. What does he want with me? I always knew about this side of town because im a book nerd and loved reading non- fiction books about this town. In those books I read they always said there was someone that lived on this side of town and had been living there since he was a little boy because this town was beautiful and full of life at one point and there was this family that built a big beautiful house right in the middle of the town and that same house burned down killing everyone in it except that little boy. People tried offering help to the little boy they also tried taking him in but the people that took him in always ended up dying and their autopsies always came back with the same cause of death, cyanide poisoning. People stopped feeling bad for the little boy instead they were scared of him then one day the people of the town just fled to the other side of the city and when they were asked what happened they reported that some would just drop dead and others would go insane chanting and screaming even attacking people. Everyone the fled the town either became deathly ill or were deemed clinically insane. There was a woman who was able to report what she saw in that town. She described the little boy as the devil himself she said the little boy began to distort and shape his body into ways that were physically impossible. Now i get it. That little boy was not little at all anymore. "You disobedient little girl" I hear him say sending shivers down my spine. In a flash I bent over the bed with my arms restrained. Then he swiftly rips the thin material right from my body leaving me exposed and begging him to let me go. "Let you go? Why would I do that?" he chuckles. "Sir i'm sorry for what happened to you but why hurt others it's not our faults." I say trying to humanize myself just a little. "You know nothing about me" he growls "Please just let me go, why do you hurt people?" "Same reason you're always kind to people" he says stoically. "I'm kind because that's my personality sir" I say afraid of what he's gonna do or say next. "Yes and I hurt people because it too is my personality also how would i stay alive?" "What are you?" "I'm whatever you'd like me to be princess" "are you going to kill me?"
