Chapter Eight

====???'s P.O.V.====
I paced around my cell. It was fairly small, with only a ripped up mattress and some tattered blankets in it. I guess I'm luck I had a proper mattress at first, it's just, there is nothing else for me to sharpen my nails on. Plus, it's kinda fun!

I hear the bell ring, signalling that lunch has started for everyone else. I don't go to lunch until after everyone else. They think I will try to attack another patient. I won't. I don't want to attack another patient. They did nothing wrong. I will, however, attack a random guard.

I pounce on my bed and 'attack' it. I'm trying to make everyone think that I'm crazy. I can use it to my advantage later on. I don't know how yet. But I will. My door opens and a guard walks in. I turn to look at him. He is wearing full body armor. I pounce on him anyways. He doesn't expect it so he falls back with me on top of him.

"Oh, I was gonna see if you could eat with other patients without attacking. I guess I was wrong." I wasn't even attacking him! I stood and then sat daintily on top of the guard. Without even looking, I know it was my scientist who spoke.

"Oh, you're done? Okay, do you think you could go to the cafeteria without attacking anyone? I'm kinda tired of taking you out at a different time everyday. It's actually quite the inconvenience." She says. I stand up and get off of the guard. He stands up and takes a step away from me.

"Hungry." I say to her simply. She nods and the armored guard walks to me and pulls out some handcuffs. I hiss at him and jump backwards.

"Don't worry, I think miss Jace can walk to the cafeteria without handcuffs. Put those away." The scientist says. The guard does as he's told and the scientist nods at him.

"Come on miss Jace. You are going to follow this nice gentleman to the cafeteria." She motions for me to follow the guard and he takes a couple steps down the hall. I walk out of my cell and smell another person. I spin around and see another armored guard. I narrow my eyes at him then turn to follow the first guard.

I'm not allowed on the elevator, so we take the stairs down to the cafeteria. Halfway down I smell something familiar. I stop and the guard behind me almost runs into me while the guard in front of me keeps going. I hiss loudly and rush down the stairs ahead of the first guard.

When I get down I see him. Elton. There are other people in here too. Two boys and a girl are in the room with Elton. One boy has a wolf tail and ears. I can't really see any animal parts on the other boy, but the girl has white bear ears. The boy with no visible animal looks like he's ready to punch Elton. Good. He needs to be punched.

Then they all notice me. As soon as Elton meets my eyes I move to pounce on him but one of the guards grabs me from behind. Elton realizes who I am after a moment and gasps rather loudly. The girl looks at me then at Elton, then back to me.

"Who are you?" She asks me in a soft voice. I look away from Elton and turn my head towards her. I smile sweetly while still struggling with the guard.

"Hi. Name is Sierra." I say, almost as sweetly as my smile. I almost sound like I'm four years old because of my speech. The girl smiles back at me and the boy without the ears looks at me confused.

I calm myself down and stop struggling with the guard. His grip loosens. I stand still and act as if I'm calmed down completely. The guard slowly let's go of me.

I lift my arm and wave at the girl. She waves back then speaks again.

"My name is Gracie! This here," she points the the boy with no wolf ears. " is my best friend Jacob, and this," she points at the boy with wolf ears. "Is Jason. I feel like you might already know Elton so..." she trails off at the end.

"Yes, know Elton." I speak sweetly, except for when I say his name. You can hear my disdain for him when I say his name. The boy, Jason, looks at me questioningly. Elton looks down, to the side, at Jacob, anywhere but at me.

"How do you know Elton?" Jason asks me.

"Ask Elton. He knows. He knows a lot of things." I turn to Elton. "Don't you Elton?" the first guard grabs my arm and tries to drag me forwards, towards the door, but I keep my feet firmly planted.

"Miss Jace, we need to get to the cafeteria. Now." The guard who was holding me a little bit ago says. I turn and look at him. Then back to the other people in the room.

"I have go. Hope to see most of you." I smile at Gracie. One guards walks in front of me and the other stays behind still holding my arm. I pull it away from him so I can walk by myself. As we pass by Elton I quickly take a step towards him, scratch his face, then step back in between the guards and keep walking.
