“Will she be ok with the others? As in she is much wilder, the others are so calm. She could start an uprising; a few of the older girls wouldn’t need much persuasion with that…” The voice drifted into my dreams and woke me up, when had I fallen asleep?
“Ahh good Kira, we need to get you settled in. You shall have the roam of the complex like every other child here, well get up and we will get you some clothes. A man returned later with a pile of clothing, it was clean and in good condition, but plain. I quickly slipped into it while keeping my self-covered, because I knew the camera was still in operation. The doctor appeared back in the room not long after I had gotten dressed. He led me down the twisting halls to a room where lots of girls my age were sitting. They all stood up when the man walked in, he pointed me to a seat and left. Only after he left did they sit down. The person at the front of the room tapped the board once, and all eyes instantly were watching her. After an agonizing 40 minutes in what I would guess was the class room, were we dismissed.
“What’s your name?” asked a black haired girl.
“Kira” I whispered, “do you know where my little sister would be?” I asked politely.
“How old is she?” she asked. “Oh and my names Lara, nice to meet you” she finished
“She’s four” I smiled lightly rejoicing in the memory of her first learning to count.
“Follow me” Lara set off on a course winding through the white halls. After a while we entered a large room with lots of young girls. They were all at different tables, some drawing, and some building. Women in white walked around carrying cameras.
“They photograph what the children build, and store all their art work. Their mates can take it with them when they take the girls. I was raised here and all my work that I have ever done is in a folder under my name. And when I’m picked it will all go with me” her voice was calm but lost.
“Do you want to be picked?” I asked her, she looked lost at the question.
“They say it’s the best thing that will happen to us, but I wish I had grown up with my parents and a family” she said longingly. “But honestly, I don’t know” she really did look lost when she said that. “We should go now, they don’t like us to spend time with our siblings, and we aren’t meant to get emotionally attached to anyone but our mates. You know we aren’t even meant to talk to each other. It’s so lonely” I could feel her pain, it was already my pain, and I had only been here a few days. We walked back, a few guards gave us off looks but we just headed back and ignored them. The classes were boring and covered what I had been covering at school, only to less detail. Gory bits were left out and anything rude or interesting. Class had never been so boring. The only time students spoke was to ask a question. The food was average, small portions of meat and large portions of fruit and vege’s. It was more than I usually ate, but it was boring and always the same. There was nothing to differentiate the days, and they all just blurred into one. Lara agreed to visit Alice with me today, even though I couldn’t talk to her or touch her. I could watch her; we made our way down the halls until I saw something I hoped to never see. Alice was standing in a line with all the other girls, a little boy and his parents were walking behind him. He looked at all the girls and occasionally he would touch one but continued on. He got to my sister and he just watched her for a minute, before his parents said something that prompted him to move. He reached out and touched my sister, when they made contact his face lit up; he looked like the happiest kid on earth. The children were dismissed, but the mother picked Alice up. Before Lara could stop me, I was barging into the room after my sister. Workers had surrounded the family and me, I tried to grab my little sister but the man pushed me back before I could grab her.
“Kira!” She screamed in delight.
“Alice!” I yelled back, but there was no delight in my voice, only desperation. No one moved, no one knew exactly what to do.
“Kira, you know you’re not allowed to see Alice” the women who always caught me watching her. Alice started struggling in the women’s grip to reach me, the little boy was still deciding whether I was a threat or not. But the father had already decided I was, and had placed himself between me and his mate and son. I went to step around him, but arms grabbed me and pushed me back to where I had been standing.
“Kira, Kira” my little sister screamed as she began to cry, which caused the little boy to growl before beginning to cry. The man looked lost; he didn’t know what to do.
“Mella put her down so that Colt stops crying” he said with-out taking his eyes off me, I watched as Mella placed Alice on the ground. Colt went to go hug her, but she tried to run straight for me. Colt began to wail more and Alice began throwing a tantrum as Colt’s father pushed her back just slightly. Which cause Colt to start punching his father, he looked down and growled at Colt as his mother took his hand in hers and held him back. Alice took the distraction as a chance to run to me, and I grabbed her with open arms. The guards all took a step in, ready to remove Alice from my arms at any point. Everyone’s eyes were on Alice and me, who were clinging to each other like nothing else. Both with tear stained cheeks. “Kira never go” was all Alice whispered into my ear. I knew everyone else heard that, especially when Colt’s father had to turn around to restrain him.
“Never by choice Alice” I whispered back, hugging her tighter.
“We’re going, get the girl” the man said in a strained voice. He picked up the crying boy, holding him tightly to him, while restraining him. The men and women who had surrounded us suddenly swamped in on us, and began prying Alice from my grip. Both of our screams filled the room, along with a young Colt yelling at everyone to not hurt his mate. There were hands everywhere swamping us and separating us. Once Alice was out of my grip, the man holding her clearly at discomfort at her screams he took her towards the family.
“NO YOU CAN’T HAVE HER, I’M ALL SHE HAS. SHE’S ALL I HAVE!!!! NOOO” I yelled trying to get someone’s attention, anyone’s. But just like that one man was left holding me as I tried to twist out of his grip, but I was invisible to everyone else. It was my little sister they were all interested, she had been laid yelling and screaming on the floor while Mella checked her out.
“I WANT KIRA. KIRA HELP ME, LET ME GO TO KIRA. KIRA!!!!” Alice’s small voice filled the room, making the werewolves all cringed, but continued to keep us separated. One of the doctors had arrived; he went and spoke to a nurse before checking on Kira along with Mella. When the nurse came back, she was holding a syringe. The doctor smiled and took the syringe from her and headed straight for me.
“ALICE, ALICE I LOVE YOU ALICE. ALWAYS AND FOREVER, NO MATTER WHAT THEY DO!” I yelled to Alice, I loved her so much that nothing else mattered but getting to her. I didn’t get to hear what Alice replied, because the doctor was readying the needle and the guard had tightened his hold. Suddenly I was pushed to the ground, the doctors leg was on my arm, keeping it still. I felt it pushing through my skin, and injecting the liquid poison. “Alice I love you” was all I got out before I couldn’t think clearly and darkness began to descend over me.
“YOU’RE ALL MONSTERS!”
