The Last Hope

Prologue: The Dream...Or is it a Nightmare?

Prologue

A girl in a cage sits in a corner, silent and unmoving. Chains surrounded her , on her arms, her legs, and even her waist. Tears streamed down her face, revenge and freedom all she craves.

"So, this... this is it?'" a male voice said to another. They stare at a girl in a matted white sweatshirt with blood stains and bite marks, black jeans, and tangled, blood splattered, ginger hair. She stared back with piercing icy blue, her freckled face long with sadness. "This is what Lee spent his life work on? A girl? A girl is suppose to save us? What is your explanation for this, Doctor Johnson?" They step forward into the light, revealing two men , one with black hair the other with blonde, in blood covered lab coats.

"Sir, it's what's inside her....her-"

"LET ME OUT!" she screamed pounding her bare, cut feet against the metal bars, angrily, blood smudging on the metal. Movement in the cage next to her arose and a low , gurgling sound came from it. They open the door and stepped inside.

"Hush, my dear, you will awake the others and we don't want that do we?" Dr. Johnson, the blonde one, whispered as she tried to pull her hands from the restraints. The other man knelt down beside her.

"Yes, Miss. Martin", the other man said reaching into stroke her long hair, "We don't want anyone to get hurt out there, especially your siblings ..." He starts twirling her hair long, laughing. She growled and tried to bite him like a wild dog. "Silly girl, I bet you think your friends are coming for you, don't you? Poor you....You know they are never coming"

"That isn't true! They will come for me!" she quick throws her head towards his, slamming her already damaged forehead into his face making him tumble back,"And for you information my name is Ris not 'girl' , not 'Miss. Martin' and definitely not 'Carissa'" Sage smirked as two men including Mr.John helped him up. When he regained balanced he picked her up by the neck. She gasped trying to reach the air.

"I can call you what-" A loud alarm went off and he dropped her. She coughed and gagged as she rubbed her bruised neck. A man with the attire of a soldier came barreling into the room as gunshots and screams arose from behind. He swung his rifle over his shoulder and sauteed them.

"Sir, they have breached the barriers!"

"All men at arms" he looked at Dr. Johnson "Go, I will 'take care' of the girl!" Dr. Johnson nodded and ran towards the door. Ris backed up slowly into a corner.

"W-w-what are you gonna do to me?" she questioned, tears streaming down her face. He slowly took a pocket knife out of his lab coat, opening it, and holding it to her delicate throat.

"Don't worry... I will make it quick..." he smiled at her demonically "You won't have to deal with us prodding you anymore and we won't have to deal with your mouth when getting what we want!" Streams of tears pour down her face like a river and one sharp scream filled the room. Silents then fell over the rooms.

"RIS" a black male cried as a group of teenagers ran into the lab, where the caged girl was located. They stared in horror at their new surroundings. A lifeless body lay still on the ground blood pouring from a cut on her neck.

"Ris... Our Last Hope..."
