"Come on, let's eat at least the food is edible." June says trying to cheer me up.

Following her to one of the table in the middle of the room. Sitting on the cold metal chair and looking around the cafeteria, there is about 50 kids in here and a few of them are wearing collars around their necks.

"Here. It's not a five star dish like the way you'd make it, but it's edible." June says.

Handing my tray of food while placing hers next to mine and sitting on the chair on my right.

"Thank you June. Why are those kids wearing collars?" Whispering to June.

"Those are shock collars. Only the ones who obtain certain abilities, dangerous ones got one." June says in a depressingly way.

"Is my cousin here? Is Michelle here?" Asking June, hoping that my cousin is here.

Michelle, my favourite cousin died six months ago. I hope that was also a lie and that she is here.

"Oh Michelle Carter. She is here but..." June pauses and stops eating.

"But? But what?" Rushing her to answer me.

"She is in the restricted area. That's the place where they put the ones who are the most deadliest." She continues to eat her food.

Looking down at my tray I haven't even touch it. It's just green peas, some sweet corn and I think it is chicken nuggets and a glass of water.
I have completely lost my appetite.

"Why is she there?" Barely whispering to June.

"I overheard one of the mercenaries here and they said that she's there because they did some shit on her eyes, causing her pupils to split into two and if you look into her eyes-

It'll show you your fear and if you see it, you want to kill yourself." June explains, finishing her food.

"Almost like Medusa, instead of snakes for hair, it's just her eyes and instead of stone, you commit suicide." I quietly said.

"Where do they get these thing to inject you with?" Asking her out of confusion.

"I heard that they have a perfectly preserved Soldier of Nature and they do tests on its blood and injects it in us." June replies sounding skeptically.

"Experiment .331, let's go!" One of the mercenaries shouts.

That must be one of the kids that he is shouting at.

"I said let's go!" Was the last thing I heard before getting kicked off my chair.

Hitting the floor causing pain to go through my shoulder as I fell on it.

"Hey!" June shouts getting up from her chair.

"Sit back down Experiment .19" The mans says while pointing his rifle at June.

Turning back to me he grabs my arm, yanking me off the floor and starts dragging me out of the cafeteria.

Feeling his death grip on my arm as we go down the hall. Stopping before a metal door with a scanner on the left. On the door is written Restricted Ares.

Putting his hand on the screen to be scanned, causing the door to open.

Walking through the doors only to show rooms on both sides and scientists standing in the hall with tablets in their hands and looking through the glass into the rooms.

Looking at both sides, seeing that some kids are asleep on their beds and others strapped to tables.

The only thing to catch my attention was a the little girl who is sitting in a room with toys, but she has a mask on covering her mouth. She looks about six years old.
