Revelation

Chapter six: Underattack

Someone wants me dead. At first I thought it might have been because someone knew about my dreams or nightmares. But there couldn't be possibly anyone who I have told. I kept this to myself until I figured out what in the world was going on. I've had dreams before simple ones that didn't matter much. Not until they started getting more intense and I saw peoples deaths. Strangers deaths and for some odd reason I feel like I must save them. I'm given these visions for something. Although I can't exactly see myself as a hero. Maybe those with the guns know something from me or they don't want me to save anyone. But how do they know? What's going on?

All of these thoughts crossed my mind as I was hiding under my desk. Too much for me to even understand. I can't scream or take a near by exit. The only way out is the elevator. The rest of the scientist in the same room as me are as smart to hide but we all know that won't save our lifes. I can see they're confusion not understanding the same thing I'm trying to piece together. This is a top secret underground facility. I repeat, Top Secret. Who can be attacking us?

"Maybe if we head out and sneak our way to the elevator." I heard James my partner with the weird glasses tell Amanda the blonde and a few other pals. He at the moment seemed like the brave one but I knew he was scared as everyone. Nobody trainined us for situations like these because they weren't supposed to happen. In that moment I did figure it was the end of my life. I can't hide, I must do something. We're all trainiend to memorize this facility by heart at least the floor we're placed in. I was debating whether to move or take action. I can still remember the sweat creeping out of my pores as I had difficulties breathing.

Theres two ways to the elevator. If we made a run for the long way we can maybe survive. The issue was that the shootings were getting louder, the screams were getting terrifying, and there was a bomb or two heard. By that time the alarm went off. The red lights were flicking around the room and this reminded me of the movie my mom and I were watching back when I lived in the middle of nowhere. Where the badass character makes his way out of a building with red flashing lights when theres only seconds before the place collapses. This can be the reason why I never liked movies or TV. I like action but when I'm close from dying and theres no way to defend myself. Forget about it. I hate it.

I'm still that adventuours girl inside but I can't see myself as a badass. I'm no George Clooney just a scientist who wishes to cure cancer and find outrages things. Before saying anything I hear Amanda talking about the two ways towards the elevator. I guess she took action before me. I grabbed my black bag and threw all my materials inside, especially the pills. I started crawling once I saw James opening the door and signaling the others to follow. The red lights surrounding the room paralyzed my muscles. The alarm sound was unbearable and more knowing that who ever is out there shooting my fellow friends are getting closer. Seeing everyone run out the room I started crawling once again this time forcing myself. I can't die here not today, not now.

I have a mission to do.
