The Awakening

Chapter 21

"He's waking up sir." A strange voice said making me peep through the slits in my to see I was in a sterile room. The walls were a pure shade of white like nothing I'd ever seen before, my eyes pained like hell and I was having trouble adjusting to the lights and colours in the room. It was like my eyes were immature and had never seen before, I slammed them shut being protected from the darkness behind my eyelids. Where was I? Who was that and what do they want with me? I didn't have a clue as to what was happening but I heard a few shuffling right before someone rested something cold and metallic against my temples.

"His brain activities are a lot more responsive than the others, he did get through." A deep male voice said in a thick British accent, "Get me a detailed analysis on the rest of them and put this one back into stasis."

Then I heard a hum in response before the metal was removed and someone came and stood in front of me. Then something sharp pressed against my neck and was about to puncture but was halted when a loud clash was heard like a tray if metal and glass fell to the floor. The person in front of me cursed and they left, I knew they had moved because the body heat they were emitting had also left with them.

"Sir we have a big problem, they are all showing signs of being awake, do you think this has to do with the rebellion? Did someone hack into the Obalist?" A female voice came from the other side of the room. I wasn't sure what was going on but I opened my eyes this time I knew they were glowing, my view was tinted orange and my eyes felt more protected from the lights and colours.

"What was the last thing that happened in the Obalist?" The head's voice, I'm assuming because when they addressed 'sir' he answered, said in a hustling tone. Then the wall lit up and the cellar appeared, I sat in the floor with heavy tears dropping from my eyes. Javonte was tied to the chair and Aaron, Zade, Cian and Alaric stood around the room.

"Samo srca иistote mogu ostati ovde." came from my lips and a wave of magic came out of my body right before I healed Javonte, but what happened next wasn't what I had remembered. The room began to go dark but each person lit up with their magical colour and faded. When Cian faded something in me snapped and the restrains on me melted and I fell to my knees. The doctors turned around and saw me each with their own shocked faces, but the main one quickly recovered and began to make his way over to me.

"Levi, you don't know what's happening. I need you to calm down, take in a deep breath and awaken yourself." The doctor said in a monotone voice while blocking himself with his right arm.

As he spoke, with every word I felt myself get calmer and my body went into a more controllable state. My arms relaxed and my body made me sit on the ground with my head lulled to the side, the doctor walked up to me and stooped down to my eye level. He wore a smug look on his face as if he was confident in his ways, my heart began to race with the idea if not being able to control my own body. With such simple words that would make someone think about him being a good person that was trying to help, it turned out to be a hypnotic spell over me. My eyes dropped to my hands as I tried to will it to move but a gloved hand held onto my chin tightly and lifted my head to look at him.

"Now that was a cute little trick, but it's time to go back to sleep, your friends need you now." He said making my eyes drop sleepily until I couldn't hold it any longer and I went to sleep.

My mind was like a storm, my thoughts so far from logic that it made my brain hurt. Every now and then I would be pulled into a memory or place that I think my mind made up to cope with the madness. At that point nothing was definitely a sensible thought, I needed to know what was this place and how did those people see my life. Did they have a camera set up in my house, if so who were they? Right before I was able to formulate a thought pattern I was dragged away and thrown into the mits of yet another memory, but this time it was like my mind was trying to tell me something through it.
