3. Run alone?

           S44's POV:
Another day, the same morning routine, the only thing that is diferent is that i am paying atention to everyone around me.

I started observing the enemy. Before i didn't even bother to know the names of doctors. Now i'm taking note of their looks, inteligence and personality.

I'm also paying more atention to my friends behavior. Their reaction in rough situations and similar. I'm planing to let them in on my plan.

But not everyone is going to jump for that cazy idea. That is why i need to think about who to tell first carefuly.

It's COLOSEUM time again. And i have decided to tell my plan to Zack. I just need to get my speach ready, i need to choose my words carefuly. I'll tell him tonight.

This time terein was a swamp. I need to use my plant manipulation again. Even tho it is strong and in this kind of situation usefull, i don't quite like using it. Mostly becouse it is not one of my strong suits.

I was also using my other abilitis to cut trees and make traps and similar.
I specilaze in 'Shadow manipulation', 'Ice/water/mist' 'Uravity' and 'Time manipulation'. I can use many other abilitis, but could use more practise.

After 30 minutes was up i went back to the exit. There i met up with Zack. Looks like his rank moved up to clean A.

But his face showed no sign of happiness. How would it? His best friend didn't came back. That can mean only one thing......he died.

There was 6 of us older kids left so now we were split up in groups of 3. Logan was in the same group with us. But he didn't came back. He was dead.

The look on Zack's face was a mix of sadness and......anger? And i, for one, didn't blame him. I know how is it to loose your best friend to this......experiments.

We were having lunch afterwards and i noticed that there was just 4 of us left. The one that was missing was.....Layla?

'She too?' I thought as i grited my teeth. Then i left without even touching the food and went to library. I didn't have an apetite anymore.

I returned from library and went to my cell. There i found someone sitting on Lea's bed. I looked throught shadows and saw that it was Zack. Guess he is my cellmate now.

"Hey." He said and his voice cracked a bit. His eyes were red and he showed me a painfull smile.

"Hey." I said and returned a small sad smile to him. Then his face turned serious, in his eyes a mix of anger and determination that he didn't hide.

"Ca- can i ask you somethin-?" He started asking but cut himself. I tried asking what he ment bi silent whisper. "Huh?" But he just glanced behind me.

I looked back and saw a guard in front of our cell. I see, so he wants to ask me something important. Then i turned to him and whispered not even loud enough for him to hear, but moved my lips so he can easily read them.

"Tomorow in the library." He then nodded in sign that he understood. Then we changed the subject and started talking about some usual things. Then we both went to sleep and awaited new day.

         S44's POV:
In the morning we went to lab for tests. I took mental notes on a doctor that examened me.

Dr. Terysha, she was my doctor yesterday too. She is my doctor 5 days in a week. She was demanding, strict and....kind of creepy. One moment she is smiling a wide tooth smile, and the naxt she is yelling at everyone and everything. Pale face covered with long black hair, i could se her black eyes that steared at my red ones.
