Chapter one: The Lab
I waited outside of my Father's lab door for my older sister to come out to see what had become of her. I trembled at the thought of her being dead. Why did Sarah have to be part of these experiments?
The lab door slowly opened to revel my dad. I looked up at him, a worried look on my face.
"I'm not done yet. I just came out to get some fresh air." Father said sternly. I looked back down.
"Is... is sister ok...?" I asked.
"She's fine!" he shouted. I yelped at his yelling.
"No, she cant be! You say that every time and something always changes about her when you are though!" I shouted with all of my anger and fear.
"Fine! Go see for yourself!" Father shouted, pulling me up by my left arm. It hurt, but I went with it.
He lead me to the room that Sarah was in. He opened the door as the hallway filled with smoke. Sarah was chained to the wall, just dangling there, glairing at the door.
"See? She is fine." Dad said looking at me with a mischievous smile.
My gaze went from Dad, to Sarah, then back to Dad. I gritted my teeth together worried like. I knew that Sarah was no ok... I knew my sister and Father too well...
"Sarah... a-are you ok...?" I asked, looking at Sarah.
"Ha-ha! I'm fine little brother! I'm fine!" Sarah shouted. I looked at father.
"No she is not..." I growled at him, feeling my eyes tear up. Father sighed.
"It's just a side effect on the pain killers. She'll be fine. Calm down, Leigh."
"Liar!" I shouted as tears left wet trails down my cheeks.
After that small incidence, my Dad told me to take the elevator down the cliff and stay at mom's for the night.
In the morning, I went back up. I opened up the lab door to show Sarah still chained up to the wall and Father sitting at his desk. He looked up from his work and glared at me.
"What are you doing here?" he asked sternly.
"I-I came to make sure Sarah is ok..." I said.
"Ha ha ha! Little brother!" Sister shouted. I looked at her, then looked back at dad.
"Get out." he ordered.
"No! Please let me stay!"
"No! Now get out little boy before you become my lab rat too!"
I turned to go out, but stopped at mid-turn.
"If that is what it will take to be with my sister..."
