Chapter: Experiment 1
Delilah's POV. - Present (talks towards the doctor and the police officer)
From what I remember I couldn't move; my both wrists were pinned down and that's when I started to gain cautiousness. I was in some sort of room, wearing a hospital gown The Walls were white like wool, the lights were bright like the sun and my eyes really hurt. I heard the doors being opened and heard loud footsteps walking towards me.
Normal POV. - Past (The experience)
"Mr. Jackson, what do you want me to do with her clothing?" - The nurse asked.
He looked at the nurse when she was holding the clothing and replied, "Dispose of it"Delilah's POV continued.
Why? Why are they getting rid of my clothing? Wait... Could it be in case of evidence? What are they trying to accomplish?
Normal POV continued.
While the nurse is carrying the girls' clothing to the incinerator, a group of doctors and scientists prepare the room for the experiment.
"Prepare the solution, the camera, and the film projector, please" - Mr. Jackson said to his assistant.
"Yes Doctor" - The assistant replied in hurry.
Delilah's POV.
My head was facing the ceiling tightly where my eyes met the bright light and my pupils couldn't control the pain anymore. I started to twitch and move uncontrollably. Then suddenly, the lamp blew out. I couldn't move an inch of my head nor turn it. From nowhere, I heard deep footsteps only to meet a tall man wearing full white, looking at me with eye clamps in his hands. He set one on my right making my eye full wide and open and then did the same on the left. My eyes began to itch and tear up from the pain and the dust.
Normal POV. - Past continued.
"Start the projector" - Doctor Jackson said with a deep-toned greedy voice.
The tall man walked away from the girl towards the film projector only to start the footage. The film projector was facing upwards to the ceiling just like the girl.
Delilah's POV.
My eyes were open with force; I couldn't do anything but to stare in one position. The footage began to display a countdown. Then a woman appeared in front, behind her, a set of people, some in white coats and some not. The footage had a brief introduction to an experiment, the date, and analysis.
I began to tear down. There were footages of animals, mainly monkeys, rabbits, and mice. The footage was showing an extreme shot of a rabbit being tested on a chemical. The chemical was injected in the rabbit's eyes, soon after the eyes began to bleed with yellow liquid: leaving bruises, swollenness, blood, and infections around it. Suddenly, another footage appeared but it was a monkey, it had a deep cut shaped in a rectangle almost hand size with bruises, swelling, blood, and its fur was shaved out in the place of the wound.
More and more footages began to display which made me cry even more. I couldn't resist the pain the animals had experienced and still do. The suffering they have to go through. I started to shake and scream with my heart, begging for help. They were torturing me the same way the animals were in the videos. I was getting angrier and angrier every time the video was replayed and so my reputation couldn't hold any more of this. With force, I began to scream my lungs out, my throat hurt from the pain, and my nape even more. Especially the way I was facing: I began to feel numbness...
Normal POV. - Past continued.
The silence entered the room, the scientist injected a solution in the young girl's arm.
Delilah's POV.
I felt like someone stabbed me. However, the numbness didn't fade away but got worse and began to affect me...
