We rush to the door, and see that it's locked. "Shit..." I mumble. I growl at the door, and then punch it in frustration. It breaks into pieces. Jake stares at me. "How did you.....?" "I-I don't know..." we step over the remains of the door. As we look around, we see a bunch of desks with computers and paperwork on them. "This must be where the scientists studied...." I cut him off "Us," I say. I step towards the nearest desk and pick up the paperwork. "Lizzie Stanfield," I read off. "Species: Cyborg. Powers: Laser vision, Water control. Height: 5 foot 7," "Weird..." Jake mumbles. I go to another desk. "Jake Stanfield," "That's...... my name...." Jake says, staring at the papers. "Species: Cyborg. Powers: Mind reading, hypnosis. Height: 5 foot 9," ".............." I look at Jake. He is staring at the floor. I got to another desk, and look at that paperwork. I got to another desk and read off that paperwork. Then I go to another desk, and I stare at the papers in shock. "M-May Striver." Jake looks at me. "Powers: Necromancing, strength, telekenesis. Height: 4 foot 7." I look at Jake. Our eyes lock, and we both just stand there in shock.


Finally, Jake speaks up. "Shorty." "Shut up. "We need to go." "Yeah," he snaps me out of my daze. We go to another door, and I break that one. "I just realized.... I didn't have to take hours cutting open those bars. You could have just freaking punched them." He sighs. "Well how was I supposed to know?!" "You know what, let's just go." We walk out the door into another room filled with cages. Nobody is there, and there are no doors. Jake stops me, and points to a corner of the room. "Really?" "Really." "That isn't very safe. I don't know about you, but I really want to live through today." Bombs. He wants to use bombs.  I sigh. "You know what, fine."


I pick up a bomb, and set it down in the far corner of the room. "Aleight, we have one minute to run all the way to the other cells." "Okay, I'm ready." I set the timer. "Run," I say, looking at Jake. We both dart through the lab (which is a really long room) and run to the corner of the room that we came from. As soon as we make it, the bomb blows up. It was a huge explosion, and we both passed out.
