It Was My Decision. J.

I can't stop thinking about him.

What if I made the wrong choice? No. I have to think about the people, not myself. I have to be selfless.

June is seated in the room they have been using for the past 6 months. All four walls were pale white, reminding her about the snow, and locking her in.

I wish that I could at least go out... Just to see it. I have never actually felt it. But I heard that it's cold, and it melts in your hands. I want to know what snow feels like.

The door that is designed to sink into the wall, opens.

"Hello, June." says Dr Rennell. "Merry early Christmas."

June looks up from her plastic chair. It was the only furniture in the room. She was even dressed to match the room, a tight suited shirt and tight shorts down to her knees.

"Merry early Christmas, Dr Rennell." June smiles, but it's forced.

He has a clipboard, a couple sheets of paper and a pen.

"It doesn't seem like you have recovered back to your normal self just yet..." started Dr Rennell, "It still seems like there is something bothering you."

June sighs, "I already told you. I don't want to be here. I have been to every city, every poor town, and they still all had better lives than me. I'm not going to pretend that I don't mind being here. Because I never wanted to, and never will."

"Then why didn't you leave?" he asks, writing down at the same time.

Is he writing down my answers? For what?

"Because.. I don't want to be blind. I want to see the world. And I believe that maybe someday you will open up your eyes and realize..." she looks down at the floor for a couple of seconds.

Then looks up and raises her voice, "Realize that I will not harm anyone! That I am safe to be around! That-That I should live a normal life, because keeping me here doesn't actually help you with anything!" her hands clutch onto the chair.

Dr Rennell isn't shocked that she raised her voice. She's been shouting at him for the past 6 months she's been here. Every time.

No one is listening to what she has to say, all the doctors and nurses seem like they are emotionless, like robots. No one cares, except from Mrs Samuels. But she can't do anything about it.

Malisa Samuels is now also carefully watched. Every move she makes and what she says. She still speaks and answers June, but she doesn't always get to speak her thoughts, because she knows that they wouldn't make the President happy. They would make him more suspicious, about whether she is still trustworthy.

It is still a miracle that she is still even allowed to be in the castle. Everyone thought Mr Halloway would put her in jail, because she did commit a crime. Help June escape. They did have some evidence for it, there were a couple of cameras on the roof. But they were broken after the glass shattered and June escaped.

He is the President after all, he could of gotten her in jail even without the recordings. But he didn't want to make June's life even more like hell, by taking away the only person she loved in that castle.

Dr Rennell nodded. Tapped with his pen, and continued writing down his notes.

"Why does everyone keep acting like I am nothing! I keep telling you and telling you, there is nothing you need to experiment on!" June continued.

She still spoke to him, "This is all just hopeless. Why am I even bothered?" she laughed, "You will still not listen to me!"

Dr Rennell looked at her, their eyes locked. June noticed a slight pity in his eyes for a split second, but then they turned solid green again.

"I think that maybe we should continue to our next section." He spoke a bit louder, so the people on the other side of the walls can hear him loud and clear.

There was a womans voice which answered, "We are ready to move on. Door will be open."

And the hidden door slides out of it's hide out, making it visable again. A couple of nurses come in, with a trolley table. An one inch needle, and long cables attached to suction-cup look alikes.

June sighs, "Go on, stuck those suckers on my skin. Then pierce the stinging needle through my neck. Make me do my magic and send me back to my room."

June actually made the nurses freeze. They look at her in suprise. She never spoke to them like this before.

Dr Rennell clears his throat, bringing them back to earth.

He picks up the needle as the nurses stick the suction-cups to her arms and legs, two of each on her forehead. Making her look like a proper science experiment.

"This will-"

"Only hurt a little, I know." June finished for Dr Rennell, "You tell me that every time."

As the needle cuts through her skin on her neck, Dr Rennell looks quite concerned.

After the dark blue liquid fully enters June's veins, Dr Rennell puts back the empty needle on the table.

He sighs, "This is a bit different."

June is now alarmed. "What do you mean?"

"It will enage your powers. Make you use up the full power." he pushes his glasses up, as they were falling to the tip of his nose.

"Does it have any side effects?" June gulps, rubbing her neck.

"It can cause you to either faint, or just be really tired. But don't worry we will be just behind the door." he tries to smile.

The nurses make their way to the exit quite fast. One big man in a full black fire proof body suit, comes in with a tungsten man statue.

June can feel the liquid making it's way down her spine, to her legs and arms. To her brain, getting linked to her powers.

The man then puts the statue at the opposite end of June. Leaving as much space between them as possible. The man then vanishes in speed of light.

June doesn't move. She is focused on the liquid, as she feels it making her more powerfull than she ever was.

Her eyes open more fully, her posture straighter, her arms and legs lighter.

This feels pretty good...

The woman speaks, "Stand up."

June obeys the woman.

"We'd like you to first use your wind, then nature, fire and water element at the end."

June raises her feather arms. She grins.

This isn't too bad...

She lets go off the wind that has bottled up in her arms.

It pushes the staue up, above the ground like it's being held by someone tall and strong. It goes up to the ceiling.

June then secures it with some branches, and burns it.

Melting it within seconds.

Adding splashes of water, leading for her to lift it up. Changing the shape, she lightly blew on it so it will dry.

She let it go, and it fell on the floor.

June, still energised by the dark blue liquid in her veins, sits back and waits for the nurses to enter with Dr Rennell. But it doesn't seem to happen.

She still sits in the plastic chair looking at the new statue she made.

A single eyeball, held by multiple pairs of hands.

Now that's a statue.

June grins, but then it starts feeling heavy on her face.

It feels like the atmosphere is dragging her down, into the earth.

June screams.

For her, her body feels like it's melting. Melting into the ground.

The last thing she hears is her own scream, but the last thing she sees is the black guard destroying her statue.
