Forbidden

Chapter 4 * Corpse Party.

I looked up at him in awe... not human? What's he on about? I'm hardly an alien.

"Ok, I'm sorry, you kidnap me and insult me by Indirectly telling me I'm not human? Is this a prank or something? Was this just to get me out of my room? Did Addilyn set this up?" He watches me as I babble on and on and he simply gives up.

"Flora, stop." He said while putting his hand up to motion me to be quite.

He waves someone over and points and me, I can only fear the worst, but when I feel the sweet release of the wire that was keeping my hands from trying to escape him, I sigh and rub my wrists and hope they don't bruise.

"Follow me Flora, it's best I show you what I mean."

I slowly get up and head out the big wooden doors. When we step out I take in my surroundings and it appears to be the total opposite of his office.

It's a big long corridor that's grey, it has no paintings or anything personal on it so it makes me consider that we're not in his home.

We walk down this long corridor and down into a basement, when we get to the basement it's a massive room filled with little rooms built into the walls, and what catches my eyes is the big glass wall on the opposite side of the room.

As I walk past the tiny cells I look inside and see people that seem to have been locked up. Some are merely sitting there, some are crying, but one particular girl is carving symbols into the wall.

I stop to look at those symbols in detail, and as I draw closer to the window, she teleports and screams in my face against the window. I jump back and quickly try and gather myself, because I think I just shat myself.

The man stops and opens the door to the glass room and motions me to go inside. I hesitate and walk in with caution and as I walk in I see a potted plant on the floor.

He laughs as he walks past me to see my face covered in disgust towards that awful plant.

"Are you serious?" I say as I watch him tower over the plant.

"Yes, now move it." He says as he takes a step backwards from the plant.

"What form of abduction is this? Do they commonly make you relive the worst night of your life?" I say gesturing to the plant.

He sighs.

"Flora... you are not entirely... normal. You bear some sort of ability that normal people don't have... and your special cause of it."

Is he being serious?

"Are you being serious?" I say. I still don't trust that any of this is actually happening right now.

"Flora, more people than you think have this problem of not fitting in because they have some sort of ability and they constantly find out they have this ability in the worst way." He continues.

"I own the power called Biokinesis, it's the ability to heal or perform other biological manipulation, such as stopping a human heart." He looks straight into my eyes while he says this and I feel like he's telling the truth, but this is crazy.

I decide to go off the subject since he looks like he's about to burst into manly tears, so I ask him more questions that he'll probably not answer.

"So what is this then? Some sort of house of horrors? And why is there people locked up out there? What have they done?"

God, I feel like I'm playing twenty questions, with myself.

"This is a home that's safe for people like us to live. Those people out there have committed crimes that's they should be punished for... and they're not allowed to be near the civilians"

"Civilians? They're more people in this place?" I question.

"Let's go back to this exercise shall we?"he says as he turns his attention back to the plant.

I look at the plant and sigh. Alright, we can do this Flora, let's strike this man in the head, like I did Kyle, and break free from this prison.

I imagine this hitting him in the head over and over again but nothing happens.

I look at him, and he looks at me.

"I can't do it." I said in frustration.

"Flora... it's okay. I know you can but I'm placing you under pressure, so I'll leave the room and you continue." He says as he exits the room.

I turn back to the plant and focus on its movement. I try and get angry because everything appears to move when I'm angry, but nothing happens.

I turn around to see if he was observing me through the glass, but the glass appears to be a mirror on this side of the wall.

I look around the room looking for an exit but I discover nothing but walls connecting to the floor. Great.

I walk back to the doorway to tell him that I give up but, I open the door to reveal that he's not standing there anymore, it's an empty room.

I take a second glance around the room and slowly begin to speed walk out of this massive room, if I was going to get away I better do it fast.

I exit out into the corridor and it's empty.. Where did he go?

I turn every corner and I discover myself to be lost... Great.

I hear people coming so I panic and open the closest door to me and I hide in that room, hoping it's just a closet.

I turn around when the doors safely shut and I see a boy around my age playing with a corpse.... Yeah, I said that right. A dead corpse...great.

I take a step closer to him ready to fight him so he can't bring me back to that other man whose name I never got.

When he notices me he gets up and looks between me and he corpse.

"Hey, w- what sector are you from?" He said as he lifts his hands off the chest of the old woman lying on the table.

"Um.." Um what the hell is this boy on about?            

"Why? Can't we keep this interesting? I'll Show you my power if you show me yours first?" I say flirtatiously.

Oh my god. I hate myself.

Firstly, I have no idea what 'section' I'm in cause I'm not in one, and why does it matter? I'm just going to flirt my way out of this.

He takes a deep breath and gulps. Oh boy.

"O-okay." He says as he sits back down and moves his chair closer to his body. I walk over to him and I stand on the opposite side of the table.

I'm only staying in here because I don't know of those people have passed yet.. I pray they walk fast.

"I can control it now!" He seems really excited, I wish I could control my power, I might not even have a power! I could barely move that plant in there.

"Watch." He said as he places his hands onto the chest of this poor old woman. He closes his eyes and breathes, it gets really quiet and I wonder if I could just sneak out now.

As I stand there for about a minute and I expect nothing to happen at this point, but just as I turn to ask him what's supposed to happen, the woman's eyes burst open and she starts gasping for air.

I look to him in shock.

"See? I told you I can control it." He said while he near dies of complete happiness.

I look at him and then sift my eyes to the woman, who's now alive and breathing.

What did I just witness?
