Alex's P.O.V
Everything was dark, so dark. I could hardly tell when my eyes were open, and everything around me was cold. My body felt paralyzed, and my heartbeat pick up as I struggled to move.
The groan of the door beside me broke the silence, providing a small strip of light to illuminate my face. Shoes clicked against the floor as they approached me, stopping before my face. A hand reached out, running through my hair. An unpleasant chill shocked my spine as I tried to move away from the source.
"Hello, Alexander." The voice seemed to recognize me, causing more shivers to jolt through me. "We've been awaiting your arrival."
Echo's P.O.V
I screamed his name until my voice was hoarse. They restrained me when he came in and I began thrashing against the table. I couldn't even speak anymore, everything came out broken. "P-please, I just want to see h-him." No one noticed me talking. No one was coming.
They injected him with the same purple liquid as me, but it wasn't the same person. It was a man this time, and when he fell to the floor they had to put me out, too. I couldn't stop screaming. I wasn't able to.
When I finally woke, I could see him. I was reminded of night vision as the screen glowed pale green. Alex lay on the floor, unmoving. I was back in the prison that held me when I arrived, and I couldn't help yanking at my hair as the lady who was with me earlier approached him. She leaned down and whispered words I couldn't hear, before the screen cut out.
I began banging on the walls, knocking over anything I could get my hands on. My whole body was shaking and I didn't try to stop myself when I collapsed in the corner across from the camera. I didn't bother doing anything else besides glare at the camera. They were watching me, observing me like some caged animal. The thoughts made my skin crawl.
"Echo, we're ready for you." I turned to see the wall opening, providing a passage way for me to exit out of. No one met me outside the door as I'd expected, and I was hesitant to step out. A long hallway stretched in front of me, and I took a small step onto the cold tile. I was in nothing but a thin gown, and my skin was laced with goosebumps as I walked.
No other doors beside the one I'd escaped from lined the walls. It was just more hallways. More twists and turns. I was stuck in a never ending labyrinth.
I broke into a run, my anxiety picking up its pace. I hadn't noticed any of the cameras following me like glass eyes.
