'Instinct is something which transcends knowledge. We have, undoubtedly, certain finer fibers that enable us to perceive truths when logical deduction, or any other willful effort of the brain, is futile.'

——————————————————— Nicole's POV
About 4 days have passed since me and Aris discovered the bodies. 4 days since Sonya, Harriet, Leanna, and Renee went missing after apparently the facility had some sort of 'malfunction' with the alarms. Of corse I had to come up with an excuse for Janson on why I was just standing there in an empty room like a freakin' idiot.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Where are the rest of the girls?" The silver haired man asked as we stood in the empty room.
"I honestly don't know." And that wasn't a lie. I really didn't know. I hoped WCKD didn't get to them while I was gone.
"So you mean 4 girls just magically vanished in front of you?" "No, I wasn't hear when it happened." Truth.
"So where exactly were you Ms. Nicole?"
Oh, you know just crawling through the air vents with my BFF discovering that y'all are evil and stuff. Same old Tuesday. Yeah, like that was going to pass.
I licked my lips as I tried to come up with an excuse. "I couldn't sleep so I went out to explore the hallways a bit. Then I heard the siren. I thought it might be safer to come back to my room and ask the girls what was wrong. When I got here it was empty."
Janson narrowed his eyes at me making me wonder if he believed my lie or not. Eventually he turned around to the door.
"Oh, and Ms. Nicole. How about we don't have any more late night walks shall we. After all curiosity killed the cat."
His words chilled my spine. These were obviously people who didn't like being messed with. But of corse I couldn't help but be my little sarcastic self back. "Yes, but satisfaction brought the little bitch back."

Aris and I were fortunate enough to not get called on yet. I limped into the cafeteria scanning the crowd for my friend. I wore a grey cami with a green vest pulled over it. I had on black jeans and these high knitted fingerless gloves.
As I searched a body suddenly collided with mine sending me tumbling to the floor. "I'm so sorry." A boy said. I looked over to see a blonde haired boy on the ground too. The boy had a bit of a funny accent. "It's okay, I wasn't looking were I was going." The blonde haired boy quickly got up and offered a hand to me.
