Henry's P.O.V

        I look at my watch, 10:46 a.m. We've been here for at least 10 hours, I haven't slept and Jane still sits in the corner, though she stopped crying. Everyone else is either asleep or just not talking. I stopped trying to sleep a hour ago, I knew I wasn't going to get that much sleep. I hear something and I lift my head, Jane's moved from the corner and to the bed, she lays down but doesn't close her eyes. 

        

        I hear footsteps coming toward the cells and I get up and stand at the cell door. Edward and Chris are coming toward mine and Jane's cells. 

        No. Please no.

        Edward opens Jane's cell and Chris walks in, Jane gets off the bed and backs away from him until her back is against the wall. When Chris grabs her arm she tries to get free, she can't though, his grip doesn't even loosen. Edward grabs her other arm and she struggles to get free, she starts kicking and thrashing around, but doesn't help. 

        "Let her go!" I yell at them.

        "Jane!" Simon yells whe she passes his cell. 

        She still screams and tries to get free, and then she's gone. "Damnit!" 

        I pace back and forth in the cell and try to calm down but I can't stop thinking about Jane. What will they do to her? Will they kill her?

        Not ten minutes later Edward and Chris come back and this time they come for me, and I don't fight. Because they'll lead me to Jane. When I get out the cell I see the others are also being escorted. They all look at me and I put my head down, if we're all going then this isn't good. We're taken to the labs, when we arrive they take us to the back and throw us in a large room. When the door opens it takes a minute for my eyes to adjust to the bright light.

        When I can see I see Jane tied to a chair, and across from her are eight chairs. They put me in the chair directly in front of Jane and the others are put behind me. While they tie me I keep my eyes on Jane and she keeps her eyes on the floor. 

        The door opens and Eddy walks in. He stands behind Jane and Edward moved to stand to her right. "Alright," Eddy says. "I was going to use Jane to figure out how she gained her powers but now I have three older subjects I can test on." 

        "You don't have to do this Eddy." Mrs. Kindley tells him. "Please don't."

        "Sorry Amanda," Eddy tells her. "But there is simply no use for Jane anymore. You, Simon, and William are older and more matured in your powers. Jane sometimes has outbursts and I can't have that."

        "That's because she's stronger than us," Mrs. KIndley says. "She is stronger than the three of us combined."

        "If she is stronger than why can't she regain her memories?" Eddy asks her. She doesn't answer. "That's what I thought. Edward."

        Edward reaches into his pocket and pulls out a pocket knife. He holds Jane's hand still and lowers the knife. 

        "Jane look at me." I say quickly. When she looks up I see fear in her eyes. "Just keep your eyes on me Jane."

        Edward cuts Jane's wrist, her eyes close from the pain and when she opens them I see the tears begining to form. Edward cuts her right wrist two more times and then moves to her left side and cuts her left wrist three times. Jane still holds back the tears. I look down and see the blood flowing out of her, her wrists are covered in a coat of red. I look back at Eddy and see him hold a two inch knife, and he's moving to Jane's left.
