Hello everyone!! Hope everyone is doing well! I know it has been a while and I'm sorry about that! Hopefully, you guys like this! Check out my friend's book, Phoenix Rising. Here is the link to that story: https://my.w.tt/fSAvARGAk1
It is better to read that one first before mine! But either way works!

I hardly remember when or how I arrived. Hardly remember anything of freedom or real happiness. Practically, I didn't even know what freedom felt like. Except for Brainy showing me what the world was. I didn't even have a name until she came up with one for me. She called me Pearl, like a pearl from the sea, one hidden and yet beautiful. I wouldn't agree much with her with the beautiful part because I wasn't. I was ordinary as much as a superhuman could be. Dark brown hair and warm brown eyes. Nothing was special except for the fact I lived when I should've died.
I survived drowning. I had been claimed dead for an hour and fourteen minutes as I have heard over and over again. But I awoke on my own coughing up water and coming back to life.
They were amazed and took me, wanting to change me more than I was. So at four years old I was kidnapped and brought to this dreadful place. Then being experimented on over and over and over again. They wanted to break me. But I decided with the help of Brainy, (who had gone mentally silent for so long that I began to worry), that I would never let them destroy me.
I remember little of the four years I had of my parents. Maybe their voices, but those are hardly saying in my mind these days. It's hard to remember what anything is when almost every day is torture.
The institute is destroying the memories. Making it harder to remember much. Which I knew was exactly what they wanted. Wanting me to only think of what they did to me. Wanting to trigger the powers and make them come out when they had a mind of their own.
All I could remember looking back on my memories is the faint smell of art supplies, saltwater, throwing books (the lovely rule book, the only book they gave me) to protect myself.
I wondered if my parents remembered me. If they were alive and weren't killed like the institute had told me, they did for not "letting my powers out". Did they remember me, or did they forget? It would be easier if they forgot and moved on. They deserved happiness and love, even if I wouldn't most likely ever remember them. But it was silly to think about. Wondering, dreaming, and sitting staring at the wall would do nothing for me.
The only things I ever wanted were my parents and freedom. But no one would ever hand those to me after thirteen years I had given up on that idea. It was time I became my own hero.
If I have to myself out of this place by my bare hands. I would get me, definitely Brainy, maybe my neighbor out, or if I was lucky get everyone out. Even if I died saving everyone else, it would always be worth it. I would get myself and someone out of here.
No matter what.
