I wake up in a white room with only a spruce wood desk and a chair which I am chained to. Quil is standing next to me and holds up the recorder I was using to capture information. He drops it on the ground, pulls out the pistol behind his back, shoots the recorder, and then he shoots me in my left leg. I grit my teeth holding back my tears and and the scream that comes with trying to look strong. "You can't run from me Alice, you can't outthink me, and most certainly can't beat me." He's cold, I'm engulfed with so much hate I scream out loudly and spit in his clothes. He pulls out his handkerchief and wipes it's off like its no big deal. "And what good did that do you exactly? Like I was saying, I already told you our history and why we had to kill your parents what else would you want to know."
I speak out to him.
"First of all if you don't have anything to hide why did you destroy the recorder, and secondly I heard that you are hiding our history and want to know what that is, and thirdly why did you kill my parents, I know you said they held information, I just want to know what that information was."
"Well I have a right to destroy a recording that you don't have permission of, the history we tell you is truthful enough, and the information that your parents held is top secret, so therefore I have the right to keep it from you. Anymore questions Alice Unid?"
"Wow! Well done Quil, you just gave yourself away, telling us our history is truthful enough is pretty much saying your not telling it all and saying my parents have something to do with our history!"
He try's to counter back but I beat him at it "what made you that defensive to the point where you had to blow up an entire country and keep half our history from us just so you could be the strongest, it really shows me how much of a coward you really are!"
"Oh I'm so sorry you feel that way pretty little Alice, you should know what happened, and I would love to tell you but would you look at the time dear! I have to go now! Besides if I did tell you, why in the world would someone believe you?" He says with a grim smile planted on his face.
And then he leaves me, no food and no water...for hours.
