Eleanor's POV

We stopped abruptly, except this time no one was thrown into the back of the van,we just sat there for the longest time. I for one, was exhausted but I couldn't fall asleep (considering I was awaiting my fate in the back of my kidnappers van). Suddenly some sort of gas hissed it's way into the back of the van and slowly I slipped from consciousness.

*still Eleanor's POV*

I awoke on the floor of a plain room in semi darkness. I looked around and began to take in my surroundings. It was an old building considering the paint was cracked and chipped. There was a sagging single bed with one pilling wool blanket and a small, flat pillow in the right corner plus at the end of the bed was a small sink with a little pink soap and a washroom stall in the corner. A small dresser with a cracked mirror above it was beside the door and the most peculiar thing, there was no light fixture in the ceiling or outlets along the walls, the only source of light was a small rectangular caged in window right next to the ceiling above the bed. Even more peculiar than the whole 'no electricity thing' was that besides the fact that this building was old and dated, where a door would have been was a high tech padlock vault door... There would be no escaping.

I looked down at myself and realized that I wasn't wearing my own clothes other than my horseback riding boots.

Wait

Who... changed me?

Ew.

I'm not thinking about that right now.

I was wearing a loose cream button down blouse with matching loose fitting cream pants

With cowgirl boots.

EW.

Oh my god do they have any taste at all?

I took off my shoes. Much better. White socks with cream pants is still pretty bad, but much, MUCH better.

As I stood up to put my boots beneath the bed I noticed a note pinned to the wall, it read:

Welcome to your new home! In the dresser you will find all the necessities including a comb, a toothbrush, a tube of toothpaste, two spare outfits and spare bed linen, plus a number of other things. Please be prepared for our first meeting which will be alerted to you via alarm and opening of the door. You are expected to exit your room immediately and proceed quickly and quietly to the arranged meeting room which you will follow the superiors dressed in black to. Looking forward ever so much to meeting you!

I walked over to the dresser and looked at my reflection... How long had I been asleep for? I looked like a mess! I opened the bottom drawer and saw that there were two old woollen blankets and several pairs of clothes identical to those I was wearing now. I closed that drawer. I opened the top drawer, it was filled with all kinds of things, including everything that was previously stated plus several plain face cloths, a hair tie, socks and runners and extra soap. I quickly removed my dirty socks and dawned clean ones. Ah that's better. I combed my hair and pulled it back into a ponytail. I grabbed a cloth and walked over to the sink I washed my face. I felt better. I hung the cloth over the tap. Walked back over to the dresser and put on the sneakers, that looked better. I finally felt ready for the 'meeting'. Whatever that was. I wonder how

"BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP"

I hurried out of my room and followed the 'superiors' to the 'designated meeting area' through a massive hallway filled with people! How could anyone kidnap that many people? There were thousands! In the meeting room there were even more people, all dressed exactly like me, even the boys. Funny enough it seemed as though everyone was wearing the supplied sneakers.

In the middle of the room there was a huge round stage and standing on that stage was the person who I assumed was "eminence" she was tall and looked to be around twenty five (how could I tell when she was standing so far away?). She called for our attention and if the room was quiet before, it was absolutely soundless now. Eminence began. "Welcome" she said in a cool voice that was all too recognizable "to our project" I noticed that the superiors (who were mostly big strong men) were now standing behind her in a semi circle "we will all work together to a single goal, which will become clear all too soon. I will lead us all to that goal. You may be wondering why I have brought you all here. The answer is plain, you are all exceptional in a similar way. Your genetic coding is prime for this project. Anyone who is not here should not be here. You are the most important people in the world! I know that you will all grow to love our cause and you will sacrifice much for it but for now good night. It will all begin tomorrow!"

Wow that was specific.

Hey guys, sorry I haven't updated in such a LONG time! I have a dozen excuses but lets just say, I'll be updating more from now on! ;-) I'll try to have around two chapters out per week. If you have any suggestions let me know! I know roughly where I want it headed but any feed back would be fabuloso!
