DNA (Niall Horan fanfiction)

Chapter 8

I woke up strapped to a metal bed with spikey hand cuffs. The same bed they used to take me here.

"Let me go!" I struggled against the cuffs, wailing and screaming, ignoring the spikes digging into my arms and legs. I felt a hand rest on my arm trying to calm me.

"Don't touch me! Let go!" I felt the hand go away, then return with something they injected into my arm. My body instantly calmed, though my emotions remained the same. I gently opened my eyes and looked around. A small room lined with medicine in metal cabinets. I saw a few doctors looking at me, writing things, and checking things on a monitor on the wall, attached to my arms. I sighed and closed my eyes again. Is this what me life is destined to be? Living in a secret area, being tested everyday. I felt a few tears fall down my face but forced myself to hold them in.

"Ms. Royal?" I opened my eyes to see a tall male standing beside my bed.

"You are needed in another room." He gently unlocked the cuffs and I eagerly stood up, immediately regretting it due to the soreness and pain. I was about to walk out of the room, before a couple of hands grabbed me, and put handcuffs on my arms and a pair of handcuffs on my legs that had a little more room between the cuffs. The male that unlocked me stood in front of me and another male and female stood behind me. They led me down a long, narrow hall. It's washed out walls and blinding lights hurt my eyes, causing me to squint. As we walked I picked up on a faint, muffled cry. I quickly glanced to my left and saw a door. The plaque read 'Experiment Number 13' and through the window I could barley make out a girl, no older than me, hunched in a corner. She had the same white clothes on, too. There was more like me.

Finally we made our way into a room, separate from where I was usually stored. I walked over and a few computers were on the wall, blinking lights, and many machines I didn't recognize.

"Do you want me to stay?" The man that stood in front of me said. Two people walked out of the corner of the room, one of which was Niall.

"No, you may leave." Niall said. As soon as the guards left I charged towards Niall.

"You! You did this to me!" The woman I didn't recognize held me back, and I felt a familiar surge of pain flow down my neck. I winced away, but I didn't dare take my eyes off of him. I stood there, my hands in fists, as the woman recited instructions.

"Okay Ms. Royal, Here is what we will do. I will ask you a series of questions and, based on your answer, you will either be shocked or remain normal. Okay Ms. Royal?" I gave her a quick glare and she cleared her throat as if nothing had happened.

"Lets begin. When did you try to escape?" She asked.

"I don't know." I muttered through gritted teeth. I felt a quick shock.

"Please answer." She said again.

"How am I supposed to know? Ive been knocked out for days! And its because of all of you!" A sharper shock.

"Answer correctly." I thought for a moment.

"From what I remember, probably about three days ago." Even when I was unconscious I could feel the medicine they injected me with drain from my body after a period of time.

"It's been almost 4 weeks," Niall's hand went for a buzzer but the female, obviously superior, stopped him. "but, your answer was to the best of your knowledge. So, no shocking, Mr. Horan."

"Next question. How did you manage to exert that much power, Ms. Royal?" A month? I had been out a whole month? How's that possible? A sudden shock made me fall over in pain.

"Answer her question or I'll turn the shock intensity up." Niall sneered. I gritted my teeth and attempted to stand, but couldn't.

"It was because I was so mad at him!" I yelled. I propped myself onto one elbow, when Nialls hand slammed down onto the buzzer. "Stop it!" I yelled.

"Mr.Horan! Why did you shock her? She did nothing wrong!" The woman scolded.

"Because, it was the wrong answer!" He hit the buzzer again, which caused me to squirm onto the floor, and not be able to get up. So I laid there, fidgeting on the floor, trying to rise.

"That was the right answer! I answered honestly!" Niall went for the buzzer, and searing vain ripped through my body. I was full of so much anger and frustration that I hauled myself at Niall, and clawed his face with my nails, before someone hauled me away, back towards my dark room, with me thrashing in his arms all the way back.

They continued experimenting me in my small new room, and I would answer truthfully and mindlessly, weaving my way around personal questions. When they finished, they un-cuffed me and strapped me to my metal bed. It had been a long day, and honestly my feelings felt backed up like I would burst any moment.

"May I go to sleep?" I asked, taking extra care to make sure they wouldn't get mad with me for doing anything without permission.

"Yes you may." A red headed girl near my "bed" answered. I closed my eyes and tried to get comfortable, though the restraints made that difficult. As if going to bed on my own was unreliable, they injected me with a sleep serum, which surprisingly, I was greatful for. To have a while for me to seperate myself from the world I'm in right now, and to be able to dream of a better place.
