Animal or human (book 2)

Chapter 6

Jackson's POV

We all lay silent in the dimly lit room, the only sound that filled was the quiet sound of teeth chattering. I had gotten used to it over the hours i had been in here. Though I'm pretty sure that it had been over a day that i was trapped in her, i didn't try to escape, this was my punishment after all. I didn't know whether Gorge would forgive me for my disobedience. But somewhere in my heart i hoped he would.

"I never would of imagined that you would have changed this much." Mia spoke. I didn't reply, i continued to close my eyes, though i was wide awake. My arms were still crossed, and i was beginning to get annoyed with being in this room.
"Look, Jackson, I'm sorry, just please. Come with us." Mia continued. I didn't move.
"For the last time, i cant. If i go back I'd probably end up killing someone, and i doubt that you want that." I replied calmly.
"No you wouldn't, we'd help you." Mia said kindly.
"It doesn't matter, even if i had help it would be a disaster." I said, continuing to shut my eyes.

All of a sudden i heard footsteps, i opened my eyes and turned to the door. I could see Mia and the others looking at the door with confusion. After a few seconds i could tell that Mia could hear it too. The door opened with a loud screech, i looked up, Gorge was standing there, hands behind his back.
"I'm willing to give you another chance." He said flatly. I stood up and nodded my head, excepting hi offer. All of a sudden, Gorges hands came in front of him. In his left hand he held some sort of gun.
"What are you doing?" I asked confused.

Gorge didn't answer,
"What are you doing he didn't do anything wrong." I heard Mia yell. I didn't move, i stood still, hands by my side.
"Your wrong, he's considering disobedience because of you four, and i cant have that." Gorge fired the gun, though it was silent. I felt a sharp pain In my left thigh, i looked down as i fumbled against the wall. It was a strange looking dart, sticking out of my thigh, its contents empty. My head began to spin and my body began to fall limp. I fell to the ground, standing only on my hands and knees. I looked up at Gorge, a smile across his face as my vision went black and i fell to the ground.

Mia's POV

Jackson looked at Gorge before falling to the ground.
"Jackson!!" I yelled as I ran over to him. Gorge was still smiling as he slammed the door behind him. The others followed close behind me, we all leaned over him, he was out cold. I pulled the strange looking dart out of his leg and held it up in front of my face to try and find out what was inside, but it was pointless, it was completely blank.
"What was it?" Calum asked me, hoping i knew the answer.
"I don't know" i replied sadly.
"What do we do?" Jessica asked.
"I don't know?" Pete replied.

Jackson's POV

My head was spinning, and felt like liquid as i sat up. I rubbed my head and opened my eyes. I was in a cell, with Mia, Jessica, Pete and Calum, our prisoners. The last thing I remember was going out to complete a mission while Gorge tortured them. What was i doing here?
"What's going on?" I demanded harshly
"Your awake." Mia said happily, they were all looking at me.
"Why am i stuck in here with you maggots?" I asked rudely
"Gorge put you in here and shot you. Are you okay?" Jessica asked.
"Why would Gorge put me in here?" I asked
"You don't remember?" Calum asked.

"It must have been that chemical that Gorge was talking about, the one that makes him obedient and forget." Mia looked at the others then back to me.
"What chemical?" I demanded, all of a sudden the door swung open. Gorge was standing there, emotionless. He looked at all of us before looking back at me.i turned around and faced him.
"Whats going on? Why am i in here with them?" I demanded pointing at Mia and the others.
"Oh its nothing, i just thought you guys wanted to catch up." Gorge replied.
"He's lying Jackson." Mia yelled.
