Lacey screamed. Tears ran down her cheeks. I looked at Thomas out of the corner of my eye. He looked in shock. I looked back to the screen. The person holding the demon blood ignored Thomas's brother and went to him. The person held his jaw open and poured the demon blood down his throat. Thomas's brother screamed and writhed. His skin turned purple. His hair was turning silver. Thomas, on the screen, was screaming. The man with the poison moved onto Thomas. Lacey was screaming and crying but couldn't move because of the iron. As the poison was poured down young Thomas' throat I looked at Thomas in the room. He reached through the bars of Lacey's cage and gripped her hand. She looked up. "It's not real." He said. She nodded and the screen changed. She looked back and crawled to the back if the cage in terror. I looked back at the screen. There were 5 girls on there. Hannah, Liv, Elsie, Hattie and I. We were all in separate boxes made of different stuff. Hannah's was made of copper, which she was allergic to. Liv's was made of tin, which she was allergic to. I realised we were covered in whatever we were allergic to. Elsie, Oak. Hattie, Silver. And, me. I was covered in gold, surrounded by spiders, which were trying to kill me. Lacey was crying and screaming. Then the TV and her prison disappeared. She stood up and turned around. She screamed at something. I assumed it was a hallucinations. She was thrown backwards against a wall and she crumpled. Suddenly, gold appeared from no where, and covered me. I began to hallucinate too. A man appeared in front of me. I heard myself scream. I looked behind me. I saw myself terrified. I looked back at the man. "What's happening?" I asked.

"You have left your body." He replied. He clicked his fingers and the other me crumpled next to Lacey.

"How do I get back?" I said.

"Why would I tell you that?" he said. "I'm going to do it for you."

"Who are you?" I said.

"You should know. You are my little demon queen." He replied softly.

"What are you talking about?" I asked.

"Well. You're not exactly an Abnegation are you? Far too curious!" He said. "I'm sending you back now. And your.... friend."

"But..." I started, before fading into the darkness.
