Chapter 4: Glass Case

My body feels like it's floating... The only thing I see is pitch blackness all around me, stars and specs of dust caressing my body gently.. Its not scary, but strangely.. comforting. I hear ripples of water tickling the back of my body to the nape of my neck.

It's so.. Peaceful.  Is this a dream? If it is I don't want to wake up... Then again the thought of not waking up again scares me. Forcing my eyes open I see a great beautiful white dove looming over me.

Those beautiful soft blue green hazel eyes mixed in with earthly brown where gazing at mine, they were the size of my hand. The doves white soft feathers brushed against my skin. painlessly presses her right wing in me, then proceeds with transferring her whole body inside me. A bright light luminates my body making me gasp in surprise and shock. It doesn't burn.. It's..... Warm...

My eyes shoot open. Hearing my heart beat so loud I thought it'll come out of my chest anytime soon, I take in my surroundings finding out that I'm locked in... glass?

Placing my hands on the surface of the glass I notice something different, my hands.. My whole body, it feels light. Pushing the thought out my mind I try to see beyond the glass.

My eyes shoot from every direction staring at the cold pool of blood on the floor next to Dr. Barons head, but he looks different, he looks, older... Like the age or ninety-nine type older. I can tell that it's him because of his green hazel eyes, they used to be full of life and color but now his eyes are glassy. Dead. And cold. The room was dark and eerie, everyone beyond and around the glass was.. Dead.

Tears fall down my burning cheeks making my vision blurry. The lights flicker, letting me catch a glimpse of the room seeing that it's a labritory, multiple people were laying on the floor colorless and lifeless, blood splattered everywhere.

The base of the glass case began to flicker red and blue, while gas was seeping out from every corner. The glass that was once containing me, was now lifting up giving me access to the outside.

The vulgar stench of blood shoots through my nose immediately making me cover my nose in attempt to not smell it any longer. My stomach flips up and down making me react in a way of throwing up at the sight of all these dead bodies in some unknown corner. My feet touch the cold damp floor sending chills throughout my body, but I don't stand for long, my legs go numb feeling like jelly causing me to fall down on a desk creating a loud sound throughout the room and the space leading to an open door connecting to the hallway.

Holding my breath expecting something to happen my body shakes nervously. And boy was I right, I hear footsteps running down the hall Clomp! Clomp! Clomp! They're gonna catch me! Whoever's down that hallway, I don't want to find out.

Wriggling my body with my arms being the only thing that can move, aside from my face muscles I try to find a place I can hide. But then something catches my attention. Long shiny almond hair touches my arms down to my butt making me stop what I'm doing. Is this my hair? Last thing I checked I had black jawline lengthed hair, not long hair...

A noise interrupts my thoughts, making my head quickly snap to my right, I watch a figure walk toward me slowly. My legs come back to their sensess, but not completely, giving me enough control to push my self forward trying to get out of the person's view.

But there's nowhere to hide making my attempt a failure. A husky voice calls out to me letting me know the figure is male "Wait! Don't be scared, I'm not going to hurt you... Where are you?"

The room was dark, making it both hard for us to see, he pulls out a flashlight aiming the light to my face, my eyes squint as I  put my hand over my face to block the light from hurting my eyesight.
