Dusk

Chapter 14

The man walks out from the control room and rush over to him and pick him up and slam him to the wall. "HOW DARE YOU PUT ME THROUGH THAT!"I scream at him. "I'M NOT THE ONE WHO'S MAKING YOU DO IT!" He says in his defense. I know it's not but he didn't stop it. "Now put me down before they have other people come in here to stop you. You need me." I look at him confused and I drop him. I stand there and he puts the locks back on me and the blindfold.

We walk back to the holding cell. He locks me in and he hands me the key. I guess I dropped it. "Don't lose this, you'll need it soon." He walks away and shuts the door.

What did he mean by soon? What would I use it on?

I wait for hours before I hear anything again. The door opens and someone starts to unlock my arms and they take the blindfold off and it's him again. He doesn't say a word. I stand there with only my feet locked and he leaves the room only to bring in a tray of food. I'm starving. It seems like I haven't eaten in awhile. I grab the fork and start eating. I'm not too sure what it is and it doesn't taste the best but it's food. I look up at him and he says "Get ready and stay in control." He leaves the room and shuts the door. He didn't lock it though. I sit there for a moment and wait. I finish eating everything and I start feeling something. My veins start getting dark. They start burning. Oh no. Here we go. I hear an alarm go off and all the lights go out and a red light with a siren starts. I get the key and unlock my legs. I push the door open and no one's there. I look back and forth and finally at the end of the hall I see the man. He waves me over and I start running. I run as fast as I did in the simulation. I get to the end of the hallway and we start running. "Where is everyone?" I ask "There tending to the bomb that i left them upstairs." He says "Where are we going?" I ask "first let's get out of here and then I'll explain everything. Follow me." I hate the whole waiting thing. I don't disagree though. We run down a series of hallways and finally we reach a door. It's a hidden staircase. We start running up it all the way to the top. We get there and I open the door and there's tons of guards. Maybe 50 of them. "This is where you come in. Here use this." He hands me the staff from the simulation and I look at it with a grin. I look back at the guards then i run. I slam all of them to the ground, sending them into walls and shocking them, making a path to the exit. We're almost there when I see someone at the doors. It's Trace. His eyes black. It's not him anymore. He looks at me then runs. He has a staff as well. It's always been the weapon he was best with. He tries to slam it into me but I block it with mine. I throw him to the other side, trying to get him out of my way. I grab the man and pull him with me as I run. I push him through the door and Trace grabs the end of the staff. He holds the electric part and I look at him then the staff. I turn the electricity all the way up and it sends him flying into the wall in the other side of their base. We both rush through the doors and I guide him from there to the ship. We get to the ship and I jump in and help him in. I see Trace in the distance running to us. I start the ship and Trace jumps on the windshield. I start flying and I start spinning, making him finally fall off. I hear gun shots in the distance but there too far to do any damage. We're safe.

"So now do you want to explain to me who the heck you are?!" I ask him. "My name is Jacob and I've been spying on them for awhile now. Fly to these coordinates and everything will be explained.
