Hero's of a Word We've Forgotten (part 13)

Brendan-

Somewhere in Valen city Virginia

As the hours went on I didn't feel weak anymore I felt angry, how? How could you do this to someone, this girl!? She hadn't even seen the light of day.

The girl was now awake and sat on the other side of the room staring at me, I turned and stared at me, she tilted her head and stared back, I broke eye contact and stared at the floor, I needed to get out of this place.


"Tick tock on the clock ticky ticky tock tick tock there's no time left on the clock."

I looked up and Tick Tock was standing in front of the bars.

"Hey there."

I glared at him, Tick Tock smiled, "I was wondering what type of a person you were Brendan see I've tortured many people in my lifetime and there's two types of people, those who remain broken and those who are hardened by their experience."

I stood up, "one day Tick Tock I'm gonna rip your throat out for what you've done," I said malice dripping from my voice.

Tick Trick stared back at me, then his arm came forward a rod in his head touching my chest and zapping me!

I fell to the ground screaming I heard a beep and the sound of the cell door opening.

I couldn't move it felt like all my muscles were gonna break my bones, my whole body felt tight.

I looked to see Tick Tock kneel down and inject me with something and then everything went fuzzy and then black.





........................



I coughed and opened my eyes, I was in the same room, the same experimentation room my God I was back here, was ever going to be able to escape.

I saw Tick Tock looking at his tools in the corner, he was going to start doing things to me.


And then I lost hope, what a fool I was, I was never going to be able to escape from this God forsaken place, I was going to die here, I was going to waste away and die here.


"Sorry, Brendan but we are going to have to restart this process see there were some mistakes you see that little lab rat that I found to mimic your powers? It died yesterday.

I looked down to see that Tick Tock held a large medical knife in his hand.

"So I guess let's begin again Brendan, ready for play time?"

Somewhere in Valen city Virginia


"Uuggghhhhh why do you have to like these stupid freaking cartoons.


Hisato had a giant tv in the breakfast room had a lot of TV channels (none of the news channels were available though another reason not to trust the guy) and Nellie loved cartoons so now in was stuck watching some stupid anime show.

And so I was stuck here, I couldn't investigate cause well I knew Nellie would probably tell everything to her father.


"Mommy daddy?"

I looked behind me to see the twelve-year-old girl that Hisato had rescued standing.

"Where's my mommy and daddy?" She asked I could see the tears in her eyes.

I got up, I could see the tears brimming, no, no she couldn't cry I never did well when people cried and I could never say the right things to stop someone from crying.

I gulped, "your mom and dad are-"

"They sent you away for a little bit!"

I looked behind me to see Daniel smiling and standing up.

He walked lover and knelt down, "your mom and dad sent you to live with us for awhile its okay don't you remember that."

Rose looked up, "no I don't remember anything from yesterday," she said.


And then I knew, repressed memories, when someone sees something too hard or painful to process their brain blots it out.

"Want to watch cartoons?" Asked Daniel.

Rose nodded, I looked up to see Nellie was gone, Rose walked over to the couch sat down and just stared at the tv.

I heard Nellie's voice in my ear, "figure I shouldn't shock even more than I have already I'll be in the library."

I nodded, I turned to Daniel and whispered, "thank you but ho-"

"No problem," he interrupted, "I know what its like to lose someone and just by looking at her I knew she has."

I nodded back.

I then looked at Rose who was now giggling at something weird happening on the screen.

I sighed, I hoped one day she'd be able to cope with her loss.

I coughed as I awoke in a strange room.
Immediately memories came flooding back, I sat up quickly and extremely painfully.
"Don't worry," said a voice, "you're safe now," says a commanding.
I looked to my left to see a figure dressed from head to toe in black with a sword strapped to his back, I looked to my right to see my wife in a hospital bed of sorts, I looked down to see I was in the same type of bed.
"Who are you?!" I barked looking at the figure.
 The figure held up his black gloved hand, "calm down sir, I just saved your life, you lost a lot of blood."
"What do yah mean calm down! My son is missi-"
"I know where your son is!"
With those words I fell silent, it felt as if a hole had been punched in my chest, "but right bow we need to focus on one thing," the figure said.
"And that would be?"
The figure stood up, "making it out alive."

Tick Tock had just finished a series of terrible tests, he coughed as he sat down on a rolling chair and wh
