Blood Type C Positive

Chapter 3

I was still drowsy but I cracked my eyes open. I heard a vehicle engine and constant beeping from a device over head, assuming it tracked my heartbeat, and felt rumbling underneath the cushioned stretch I sat up in. I had long strips of Velcro material over my shin bones, my thighs and my chest over my forearms, to keep me from falling out, I think. At least they did that for me. My wrists and ankles were tightly restrained in the same material. I was dressed in a short, white hospital gown with light purple polka dots that only went to my mid-thigh. I faced the back double doors of the vehicle. It was dark green on the inside and had only one really dim light which happened to be right over my head. other than that, it was pitch black and there were only 2 small windows on the doors I was facing. It was almost sundown and the window I was looking at, faced the opposite direction of the sun. Blending in with the green were 2 overhead speakers.

"Hey look! She's up!" one of the... well, I could only assume they were soldiers. There were many of them in the vehicle with me, about 6 of them, I would estimate. They all had camo-green on and a helmet that covered their entire face, like the stormtroopers from Star Wars. They all had tranquilizer guns on hand ready to fire whenever needed. I wasn't actually fully awake at the time but the fact that one of them shook my stretch like crazy, woke me up without a doubt. I widened my eyes all that I could and sat up a bit more to give them the visual that I was awake. My head bobbled side to side as he pushed and pulled. As he did that, I felt increasingly lightheaded. He finally stopped and I shut my eyes and leaned back to attempt to get rid of the pain. The cardiac monitor beeped even faster. They laughed immensely as I did so. After a few minutes, the aching in my head finally gave in, so I again opened my eyes and looked around to adapt a bit more to this strange environment I was in. The cardiac monitor was decreasing in speed. I was connected to a lot of wires and needles. I looked behind me and saw several ivy packs and devices. Inside some of the ivy packs were different colored liquids, which concerned me.

"What am I connected to? What is that?" I asked quickly, staring at the colored... whatever it was.

They all just stared at me like I shouldn't know what was in it.

"What is in there? What are you putting into my body?!?!?!" I yelled at them.

"Hey, whoa, it's okay. Just relax and enjoy the ride."

Their voices were like robots, also like in Star Wars.

"No! I demand you to tell me what is in that!" The cardiac monitor began to beep increasingly fast.

"We don't take orders from anybody except for the boss."

"Who's your boss, whoever you are?"

"My name is KN-3125. The name of our boss is none of your business, little lady!"

They laughed a great deal as I closed my eyes to try to fall asleep. I opened my eyes as they all fell into silence. I looked directly to my right and down at my arm. They were taking blood from me! That's why I was easily lightheaded when one of them shook me, and took a long time to recover. I was outraged by this and tried to lean over and grab the needle with my teeth and yank it out of my arm. The material across my chest and my wrists kept me from doing that. I curled up my right wrist as much as I could to get even closer but failed to pull the needle out. I felt my muscles flex and my body went out of control. I kicked my feet and bent my knees, slightly bending the thin mattress underneath me. Trying harder and harder got me nowhere except exhaustion and more anger. The cardiac monitor was beeping uncontrollably at this point. KN-3125 stood up and nudged my shoulder with his gun to warn me.

"I can pull the trigger at anytime, you know."

"I'm not scared. Take this thing out of me!"

"You better watch what you're doing."
