Broken Spirits

Chapter One

"And Scene"

Emotions are a passionate thing a human can possibly have. Even emotionless humans have emotions. Sad, happy, anger, etc., we all have them! Well... most of us..

I'm a teenage non-human girl that wishes to have what normal human girl had. Parents, beautiful clothes, school, go to parties.. have sexual favors with my lover, and more. Us Aldons are supposed to be tough, masculine, no emotions, and well.. a big difference to a human. I wanted that to change for my brother Thomas, my friends, and mostly me... But of course we're stuck in a stupid jail where we'll all rot and die for good. Unlike other Aldons out there living the life and blending in with human society.. Thomas has an obsession of trying to find out what we are and how we are different from humans, but he keeps going in circles.

"Nothing is coming together..." Thomas said as he covered his face in disappointment

"Maybe you should take a shift off Thomas..." I said putting my hand on his shoulder

"No no I can't do that Tessie... Wait what time is it?" Thomas said, looking at the clock, "It's 10:40 pm. Time for you to go to bed." He chuckled

"I'm 17 years old!" I laugh as I mess up his hair

He looked up at me slowly and said, "I don't want Mister Calvin to yell or hurt you."

I started to frown then sigh... I kissed my big brother on the cheek and gave him a hug as I walked back to my room and gently closed the door. Thomas continued with his work until he felt something... Or someone was watching him..

"Hello Thomas." Mister Calvin said 

"OH. U-Um Mister Calvin..." Thomas said

Mister Calvin smirked, "Why are you up during past your bedtime?"

"I-I-I was working..." He started feeling sick in his stomach

"Working? Is this why you have all this damn paperwork? I TOLD YOU NOT TO WORK ON THIS ANYMORE." He threw Thomas's work on the floor "YOU ARE NOT A HUMAN AND YOU NEVER WILL BE!"

Thomas got on his knees to put up his work; he was shaking and said "Mis-Miste-"

"Don't call me that. You NEVER call me that." Mister Calvin said

"...Sorry sir..." Thomas said 

"Stand up. AND TAKE OFF THOSE GLASSES THEY'RE HIDEOUS." Mister Calvin said

Thomas slowly got up from his chair and turned to Mister Calvin as he took off his glasses, his eyes started to glow a light purple

"That's better. Now..." Mister Calvin said and cracked his knuckles as he chuckled

Mister Calvin's huge fist went across Thomas's nose.. he fell to the floor. Thomas held his hand to his nose while blood was dripping down to the floor.

"You ungrateful thing. Get up."

Thomas got up slowly, looking up at Calvin. He pushed Calvin out of the way, grabbed all his paper work and ran to his room.

"That filthy bad boy..." Calvin got off the table

The next morning around 7 we all woke up to the emergency bell. It was super loud therefore it was very important. I put on my white dress and my white shoes and dashed to the hallways. Everyone was gathered around except one person. Thomas.

"Good morning my children! Today is a very big lesson. A lesson that God has given us. A lesson that you'll never forget.. A lesson that happens to bad little boys and girls. Come out."

Thomas came out of his room with his arms tied behind his back. Calvin then pushed him on his knees and stood behind him. One of Mister Calvin's assistants gave him a metal bad, while he was gripping it I started to feel sick in my stomach wishing I could help Thomas.

"Lesson one: In order to become good boys and girls. You must not deal with pain."

Mister Calvin then got in front of Thomas as he swung the bat into his stomach. Thomas screaming in pain but was down yet, Mister Calvin hit him with the bat once more.

"BAD BOY! BAD BOY! BAD BOY!" Mister Calvin said, He kept hitting Thomas until he couldn't hear him scream anymore.

Mister Calvin dropped the bat and pointed at me saying, "Teagan. Come here."

I walked up to him slowly; He grabbed my wrist and pulled me over. He ran his fingers under my dress feeling my legs shaking in fear. I started to have tears run down my cheek looking over at Thomas.

"I'M TOUCHING YOU'RE SISTER THOMAS. I'M TOUCHING HER!" Mister Calvin said as he 

Thomas growled as his horns coming out of his head, his eyes started turning a dark purple, his finger nails started growing claws, his mouth started getting big.

"I'LL KILL YOU!" Thomas yelled, breaking free from the rope tied from his hand as he ran toward Mister Calvin and kicked him in the side. But Mister Calvin got up and fought Thomas... Of course it ended very quickly.

"Pathetic." Mister Calvin said

He grabbed a syringe and kicked Thomas down to the ground and put his foot on Thomas's head, stabbing the syringe in his neck. Thomas stopped growling but started whimpering, his eyes rolled in the back of his head. I started to get worried as I ran over there to see if he was breathing.. 

"Everyone go to their rooms. Now." Mister Calvin said, "Except you Ms. Teagan. I need to talk to you." He grabbed his knife
