The Little Ones

Chapter 9-

I've been in here for over a week. A week. I learned my lesson already, cant they let me go.

A knock came at the door, and I was so happy I jumped out of the corner I was currently in.

"Come in," I said in a scratchy voice from not talking in so long. I guess its better than talking to myself.

The door opened and in stepped... Lucy.

"Hi," she said in a small voice.

"Uhh, where have you been?" I ask in a mother-like voice.

"My dad kept me busy."

"Oh. How did you know I was here?"

"Some kids told me. They love gossiping."

"Just like the real world," I say.

"What does that mean?"

"It means exactly what I said, that's how it is In the real world."

"We're still in the real world," she says defensively.

"Well, I wouldn't know now would I? I mean they blindfolded me when I came here. I could be on Mars or something," I say truthfully.

"You know what? My dad sent me in here to see if you were ready to come out and honestly I don't think that you are," she says as she storms out the door.

Well, that escalated quickly.

***

I cant believe im still here. I thought Lucy was maybe playing a joke, but then again she is Mr.daniels daughter.

About twenty minutes later there was a knock and Wanda came in. The one that wanted my blood sample.

"I'm here to take you to your room," she said walking towards me and grabbing me by my forearm.

I was so relieved it didnt matter that she was hurting me.

Finally, after a flight of stairs we reached my room door.

"Wanda? Daniel wants Rochelle." Ted says pointing at me.

"Good i hope he does what they did to cel-"

"Wanda! Shh, whats wrong with you? Come on Rochelle," he says grabbing my forearm. Whats up with these people and grabbing forearms.

"What did Wanda say?" Although, i already know. Or kind of know.

"Oh, nothing," a nervous laugh, "She's crazy."

Sure she is.

"Ok,so what does Mr.Daniel want?"

"Uhh, just to talk to you about your actions."

"Oh so we're still on that. Can't we let go of the past?"

"If you think a month is the oast, then I guess so."

"Wait," I put my hand to stop him from walking, "Its been a month."

"Yes... How long did you think you were in there?"

"A week, two at the most."

"Wow," he said with awe in his voice.

"What?" I barked at him.

"Nothing," he replied quickly walking forward. Ugh, im tired of these people and their lies!

We reached Mr.Daniel's door and Ted knocked. We come in as told.

"Ted you may leave now." Mr.Daniel .

"Ok but i need to tell you something, Ro-" he didn't get to finish because Mr.Daniel gave him a look and I watch as Ted runs away cowardly. Im starting to dislike him. Everyone in fact. Even Lucy.

"Sit." I don't. I won't.

"No," I say, scared a little but I'd had enough.

"What did you just say?" he stands up and I let out a little laugh. He's so short and I grew over the -i still can't believe it- months I've been here.

"You heard me. I. Said. No." Not bad for a preteen.

"Do what i say or I'll destroy you!"

I remembered something Celeste had said that really ticked him off and i bet it'll vwork this time.

"With what power?" As I said this Mr.Daniel's face contorted into something hideous more hideous than his regular face. He was angry but so was I.

"Who told you that?! Huh! Who!"

"No one." I didn't tell him about Celeste because i had a feeling that I wasnt supposed to.

"Someone did! John! Come here now!"

John came from nowhere like seriously he came from nowhere.

"She's ready," Mr.Daniel said with a smirk on his face.

What the fuck just happen? I normally don't cuss not even in my head, but like seriously What. The. Fuck. Was. That?

"Are you sure? She's only been here for 5 months," John states and once again I'm starstruck for how long I've been here.

"Yeap, take her to the training room."

Boom! Yessss i think this was longer so... There you go lovelies.
