Athena

Chapter 1

Chapter 1

I am all alone in this giant rocket ship. Me a 12-year-old girl with nothing to do. I am hurdling toward earth at speeds that seem impossible. Why? It's because I am being sent back to my original timeline. Apparently, I am a threat because I can time jump, and cause time-shifts, things that would have never happened if I didn't interfere. I guess I'm not all alone I mean I have the guards who stare at me like I'm a criminal. But they aren't very good company. I can't even "jump" out of this ship because they put a metal band around my arm that prevents me from leaving a dimension on my own free will. It has a tiny blue light that shows they are engaged. I am curious how they work.

There is nothing to do on this ship except listen to the engines and keep within my thoughts. Although I can't teleport or time jump, I can still sort of use my telekinesis. Oh, yeah that's another one of my abilities. I can't use it on the bands but I can use it on the guards. I concentrated on the object I wanted to move, which was the guard's belt. I slowly start having it unbuckle so he wouldn't notice. Just before I could finish unbuckling the belt, I got smacked twice in the face. Once palm side and once backhanded. I yelped in pain and started squirming trying to hold back from the tears from the pain. "Knock it off!" the guard yelled at me while the other guard fasted his belt back. The guard who smacked me walked up to me and jerked my head on a tilt and then injected some sort of serum. I blacked out in seconds.

When I wake up I'm strapped to a hospital type bed. Terrified I start to squirm, and start panicking. "Oh, wow now" the doctor ran toward me and held me down. "You don't want to damage anything here." I start to cry knowing it's useless to try and escape. They have me on medications that prevent me from using my powers, I'm sure of it. From my estimation, I would say the year here is somewhere between 2006 and 2030. I'm not sure because I don't have any control over my powers. I do know we landed somewhere in the mountains in the Utah, In a top-secret facility.

I wake up; funny I don't remember falling asleep. I sit up and see two guards. The guards are calling in for transport. I wonder why they need transport, where am I going? Within minutes a life flight helicopter and 2 military black hawks show up. The guards pick me up and carry me to the life flight helicopter. They proceeded to shove me into the life flight and slam the door shut. The helicopter lifts off the ground and flies away.

When we landed, they grabbed me out of the helicopter and strapped me to another hospital type gurney. They take me inside a building which happens to be a military prison. We near a door and stopped just outside. They unhook me from the gurney and shove me into the room and then locked me in the room. The kind of room where they would lock a mental patient in a mental hospital, patted walls and floors. "Let me out, I've done nothing wrong," I scream, "It's not like I'm a telepath," which of course is a lie. But what they don't know can't hurt them. "Please just let me out!" I yell, "I've done nothing wrong, just let me out!" "Would you shut up in there!?" yelled a guard on the other side of the door. I started to whimper then proceeded to cry.

An hour or so later 2 guards came and picked me up. "Let me go," I scream as they took me away. I know what they want to do to me even if though they haven't said anything. The guards are supposed to take me to the infirmary and strip me down naked, and strap me to yet another gurney. We enter the infirmary and they stripped me down naked, laid me in a bed, and restrained me. I am glad they at least put a blanket over the top of me, I really don't feel comfortable being exposed.

They want to do surgery on me and remove the part of my brain that controls all my powers that lets me travel between dimensions. The doctors start setting up for the procedure and I squirm, scream, and do whatever necessary to prevent this procedure. The hooked me up to a breathing machine, and a heart monitor. They then proceeded to pull me under with medications. Well more like make me so unbelievable drowsy. "Scalpel." The doctor called to the nurse.
