We Need A Plan

                                                               5 years later

To this day, I still hated thinking about that time, it was what had showed me Maria was a traitor. 10 years old and I had found out the person who was the closest and realist family I had was willing to sell me out to our worst enemies if it meant she could get rewarded in any way. 

At least out plan succeeded though. 

Once we had completed the hard part and teleported, we just had to set up our new life in Seattle. We had chosen it as out home location for a few reasons. One being that it had over 500,000 residents. If our masters were to search there, they would have a hard time pinpointing us, and that's only one part of the entire world, they wouldn't find us soon. Two being that it had a few places to hide easily, there's a few parks (and who knows maybe underwater might be good?). Three being that it's just a wonderful city. There's so much to do and to learn about the culture that we never got to experience.

We thought the best idea would be to hide in one of their large parks. We thought that Frink Park would be the best due to it being an easy to place to hide in and close to the city.

You might be thinking, how did you manage to hide in a park? People visit them all the time and for 5 years? 

We are scientists. We can state and find answers to the obvious as you so thoughtfully pointed out. We built a "base" or "home" as we like to call it. It was an underground structure. We took one of their trees, and hollowed it out to build an elevator inside it. The elevator leads to out home. 

It works like this, after going somewhere, we return to Frink Park, go down the trail to our special tree, pull a hidden lever to open the tree, then ride the elevator into our base. 

Simple? I hope so. 

After we hid and built out base, rooms, kitchen, bathrooms, all that good stuff, we took residence in out home. It was a special moment for us, we had escaped slavery, a stressful inhumane life without freedom and built ourselves a new life with so much opportunity and desires. 

So much to learn! A great feeling as a scientist! To be prepared and ready to learn about so much of what the world has to offer. 

We built our labs. We wanted to continue out science after all, they made our physiology like that so we would never tire of learning. We made six labs, one specially made  for each physics, chemistry, geology, psychology, biology and engineering/computer work. 

Each of us occupies one of those labs, we are each masters in out field. My field; physics. Kayla takes the chemistry, Jeff in geology, Sandrea in psychology, Catrina in biology and Steven in the engineering. 

Once we had our labs built, we changed ourselves. Maria was a geneticist but with her not being here, we needed someone else who could do the work. Someone in a life science field would work so it was Sandrea or Catrina. Catrina was best fit for it so she took up studying the highly advanced genetics and building a DNA manipulator with Steven. 

We hid in our base until they finished that, then came the fun part. We literally changed ourselves. Not out minds, we changed out appearance. 

You see, if we had stayed in out original form, we would have been easily caught and captured again. We changed out faces mostly, slightly different skin colors but no changes in hair, we were fine with our hair colors. 

We rebuilt ourselves, kept out first names and created our middle and last names. We called each other by our first names while in the evil lab. They only called us by assigned codes so they didn't know what our names were.

We attended a school. Over the course of weeks though, we didn't want six brilliant minds all moving to one school in a few days, we'd be discovered. 

While Seattle is a growing city, we still wanted some time intervals in out arrivals. I attended first, Steven a month later in our age designated grade until we were all enrolled. Most of us went to middle school, I went to high school in a Freshmen year at age 15. The only one in elementary was Sandrea being age 11 in 5th grade. 

We grew to love our new lives. 

Freedom, school, friendship, a home, what else could we ask for?

We went to school with our friends there, then returned home to study even more into our sciences. 

We were doing well until Kayla brought up a big issue; there were other children we left behind. Kids like us, wishing for freedom and happiness, except we were just the ones that escaped. 

Most of them too scared or cowardice to fight or escape, then the ones that actually supported them like Maria. Why would someone want to be enslaved? I wondered on this for a while until Sandrea (psychologist) suggested that they might not think of it as slavery, but a contribution to society. We didn't think like that though, we weren't aiding in the world for good, we were aiding to help them profit from out knowledge and ideas. 

Anyway, we didn't like the thought of kids in there, wanting freedom but forced to slavery. We wanted to help them. 

Despite our new and perfect life, we wanted to risk it to help people who were once like us. 

We couldn't do anything though, we had a teleporter and DNA manipulator plus gadgets made by Steven that were useless in this situation. 

It was Catrina who suggested this idea as we conversed in her lab. We needed a weapon and she had the perfect idea. 

With her new genetics knowledge and our differentiated scientific knowledge, we could create biological weapons for us to use. 

For example, I'm a physicist, I deal with energy, matter, and the way the world works. She could go into my genetic information (DNA) and rewrite the DNA to make me stronger per say. I could teach her the basics of my science so she could use that to rewrite my DNA to give me my weapon. 

It got complicated, but we did it. 

I was given super strength and a shrinking ability. Kayla can create chemicals within her own body, Jeff is similar to Kayla and can create minerals instead. Sandrea can use a sort of mind control on others, Catrina can control the very essence of life as she pleases and Steven was given a super mind sort of to process computer coding and algorithms much faster than he could before. 

Armed and with our will to fight, we were ready to fight our battle. A battle for freedom.

Thanks for reading, please comment if you like it, support is always nice. I like to be critiqued on my work just so I know what to fix for future reference so please, please I beg you, tell me how bad I am so I can help myself. 

Also, huge, huge HUGE shout out to HephaestusBuilds on FanFiction.net, he got me back into writing, if you are a fan of Naruto or the Animoprhs series then go check out his stuff, he has some great content.
