Dallas was noticeably uncomfortable. Dr. Levin He looked over at Payton, Calliope and Sawyer. Sawyer looked ready to go but Dallas just smiled. "I guess its my turn then." He laughed and got up. "Alright then Dallas" Dr. Levin smiled. Dallas forced an awkward grimace and stood next to her. "I'll be back before you know it" Dallas let out a soft chuckle and followed Dr. Levin out of the room. He didn't pay much attention to what was going on. He was focusing on Dr. Levin. I can't believe this kid killed Martha. Dr. Levin's thoughts echoed in Dallas's head. I guess it was her fault. We told her to take the medication. He wouldn't have been able to kill her if he didn't know the truth. Dr. Levin let out a sigh and opened the door. "Ah the safe room." Dallas snickered. Dr. Levin laughed. "Don't worry I know what to do Miss." Dallas chained himself and gave Dr. Levin a toothy smile. "Okay Dallas. This is going to hurt me more that its going to hurt you." She shrugged. Now which one do I want to use. Maybe I'll use the whip on him too. Dr. Levin thought to herself. Dallas winced once she picked up the whip. She cracked it once, twice, three times against his back. Dallas just closed his eyes. About 20 minutes when by, Dallas was going shaky, but he didn't want to cave. Oliver was in here for over an hour, and Dallas couldn't give up after 20 minutes. 45 minutes rolled around and Dallas couldn't even open his eyes. "Okay, that's enough." He whispered. Dr. Levin set down her whip and smiled. "Okay Dallas. But you know what comes next." She sat down in her chair and took out her notebook. This one is my favorite. Dallas smiled at her and chuckled. "Okay."
"Ready or not, here I come!" Dallas laughed. He heard his sister Claire giggle. He started roaming the house for her. He knew she was hiding under the kitchen sink, but he decided to let her think that she was a ninja. He made his way to the kitchen but as he turned the corner he saw his mother talking to a woman. Dallas could sense that his mom was afraid. He quickly hid behind the doorway. Claire peeked her head out from her hiding spot. She spotted Dallas and smiled. He smiled back and put his finger to his lips. She went back to hiding. Dallas strained his ears to try and listen. "Give me the boy." Dallas had never heard such a harsh tone. He tried to focus on what his mother was saying. "I don't know where he is." The woman snickered. "Sure you don't." She looked around. Claire popped her head out again. Dallas panicked and grabbed her. He held her in his arms. "Mom is trying to find us, so we have to be quiet." Dallas whispered as calmly as he could. Claire nodded and relaxed in his arms. "I'm the only one here." Dallas peeked around the corner to see the woman with a knife against his mother's throat. "I can hear the children." The woman spat on Dallas's mom. With that sentence she sliced into her throat. Blood gushed. Dallas flinched and looked back to Claire. "Claire we have to go-" Dallas stopped. Claire had walked into the kitchen. Her jaw dropped as she saw her mother. "Hello little one." The woman was sweet to her. "Where is your brother?" Claire blinked. "I'm right here." Dallas stepped out from his hiding spot. "Well that wasn't too hard now was it." Dallas looked up but before he could see the woman's face, everything started to go black. The last thing he saw was Claire sitting on the floor crying. Then everything went black.
Dallas held back tears. He couldn't help but worry about Claire. "What do you think happened to Claire, Dallas?" Dr. Levin asked. "I don't know. Maybe that woman killed her, or took her hostage? I hope she let her go." Dallas looked at Dr. Levin and for once he saw a flicker of compassion on her face. "You can go." She released him and sat down. Dallas nodded and quickly walked off. Dallas walked down the corridor. As he walked he looked around. As he turned the corner, he saw a small figure, it was a little girl. she had long blonde hair and striking grey eyes. It was Claire. "Claire?" Dallas gasped. He blinked and she was gone. He shook his head and walked back in the room. "Hey guys." Dallas gave a small smile. "Hey buddy!" Payton smiled at Dallas. Dallas came and sat down on the couch in the hall. Payton put his hand on Dallas's shoulder and he hissed in pain. Dallas stood up and realized that his shirt was soaked in blood. "Yikes. She got me good." Dallas laughed and took off his shirt. There was a mark from his hip to his shoulder. "Yea I need to clean this." Dallas chuckled. Payton stood up. "I can help if you want?" Dallas shook his head and smiled. "No thanks Pay. I got it under control." He smiled once more and closed himself in his room. He looked in the mirror. His blonde hair had spots of blood in it. His grey eyes welled up in tears. He stared in the mirror. In the corner was a little girl. It was Claire again. "Claire how did this happen." Dallas whispered. "I don't know Dallas." Claire responded sweetly. "Claire I just need to know if you're okay." Dallas looked up and Claire was gone. He sat down on the floor and cried. "Do you think they are okay?" Payton whispered. He motioned towards the 3 closed doors. "I think they will be okay. But you know it takes time." Sawyer said sadly. "I know but it's never been like this." Payton pressed on. "Maybe Levin has upped her game." Calliope piped in. "I thought you were sleeping." Sawyer laughed. "Just pretending." She giggled. Dr. Levin walked in the room. "I would normally take all of you in one day but I've decided to split it into two days. I have some other business that needs to be taken care of." Dr. Levin left as quickly as she arrived. "Well I guess we get to live another day huh." Payton laughed. "Please come to the training room." a voice came over the speaker. "That's weird." Calliope said. Lisbeth walked out of her room. "What's going on?" She wiped her face. "No clue." Sawyer smiled at her. Oliver and Dallas walked out of their rooms too. Dallas rubbed his face. It was raw from crying. "You okay dude." Oliver looked at Dallas. "Yea Oli. I'm okay." Dallas laughed and pushed Oliver. They got up and started towards the training room. "I wonder what they have in there?" Payton giggled. "Who knows." Calliope said. "Maybe its another test?" Sawyer added in. "God I hope not." Oliver chuckled. "Hey kids!" Dr. Reed smiled. "Meet your new friends!" Dr. Reed motioned towards another group of 6 kids.
