{Precious Memories}{Open}

[Sheena]

On the second floor where the labs we're,in a room a couple of minutes walk from the there was a room with a small garden in it.Flowers such beautiful one in bloom and in the middle of them all sat a young girl,she had red hair and red eyes and she wore a cute little dress.Beside her was her favorite bunny,all she remembered before coming here was waking up in a room hearing beeping sounds and her bag and her bunny beside her.She could only remember her name and not where she had come from,or who her parents we're.

"Okay bunny now you sit there,and no peeking".

She stood up and went to pick up a flower wreath she had made,placing it on her head and skipping around the garden giggling.But she soon stopped hearing that distant sound of screaming and torture coming from one of the labs,grabbing her bunny she held it close and sat down once more.She always tryed to block out those sounds but it never worked,one time she had wandered down towards the cells and saw creatures that we're so scary.But she was taken back upstairs,when she had woken up here she had heard some of the doctors saying she was too young to be turned into a creature.

But that never stopped them from poking and sticking needles in her,and half those times she has bitten anyone who even thinks they can touch her.Hearing the screams no more,she kept her bunny close and heard footsteps go by the large room then everything was silent.

"I want to go away from here".

[Lezard Hatoshi]

"I want to go away from here."

"Sorry, but you know we can't do that, now can we?" A voice said, as the door to this particular room swung open. Through the entrance stepped a blonde male. He was in his early twenties with blue eyes, not hidden behind his usual glasses. (The only explanation behind this was that he was wearing his contacts.) He pulled out his clipboard and searched through various pages of information to locate who this specimen was. He could never remember who was who and who was where. Of course, that wasn't his job. His job was just to over-see experiments and prevent escapes, even at the cost of the product's life.

It happened to be something of a coincidence that he had over-heard this one... Ah! There it was! Sheena... It had happened to be coincidence that he had heard the girl's statement. It was no surprise, truly. He knew of few who wanted to stay in a place like this, he and his comrades aside. However, it was not the choice of the specimens to stay or go. They were here for a reason, and they would stay until they were released as creatures under the control of the scientists. A corner of Hatoshi's lips twitched, but he kept his facial expressions in check, so as to not scare the girl too badly. She was something of a wild one. They needn't let that temperament get too out of control, now could they? She'd bitten people before, and doubtless she'd do it again. He was here to put an end to that.

Hatoshi closed the door behind him. "So, Sheena, how are you today?" He grinned broadly as he asked the question cheerfully. It was always the best way to start a conversation with one such as this. However, even as he did so, he made sure not to get too close to her. He didn't want to be bitten.

[Sheena]

Her eyes fell upon Hatoshi,but they we're narrowed slightly.She didn't want to stay cooped up in this room,she wanted to go somewhere else......no she wanted to visit outside.Even if those mad creatures we're running amuk,there we're flowers outside weren't there.Different ones from those grown in this room,but that was never going to happen was it.Again keeping her bunny close she inched backwards,till she had put some distance between her and the scientist.Besides why was he checking up on her,wasn't he in charge of those creepy creatures.

"I'm fine,now can you leave me and bunny alone".

Sheena peered pass him towards the door,if only she could make it over there.Slowly pushing herself up off the floor,she just continued to look at Hatoshi.She then broke into a run and went around him over to the door,she held her bunny in one arm and tryed to open the door but found it was locked but she never gave up and kept trying.But to no avail could she open it,he must have locked it with something when he came in here.She sighed and slid down to the floor,on her knees.

"If you come near,i'll bite you".

[Lezard Hatoshi]

"I'm fine,now can you leave me and bunny alone."

The sadistic scientist chuckled slightly. The answer was a quick one - one to get him to shut up and go away. If he hadn't realized this before, her immediate follow up would have made him realize this nigh immediately. But he wasn't about to leave, not yet. This girl was going to be turned into one of his finest creations! She was going to be the strongest, the swiftest, and by far the most innocent-looking. He liked this kid. Truly, he did. But he would like her even more when she was made into one of his creations. But for her, it was a slower process. He wanted her to be able to recover from the needle wounds and the lethargy-inducing effects the drugs would have on her. He didn't want to hurt her...too badly.

Hatoshi noticed, but paid no heed to the girl's skittering across the room towards the door. Another escape attempt. Well, she wouldn't get far. There were plenty of shadows in this room and he had his blade at his side. As much as it would pain him, he would destroy her if it came down to it. No one was to leave this place alive without first being converted and changed. Besides, if she wanted to leave, if she wanted him to leave, she would have to move away from the door.

"If you come near,i'll bite you."

"Tsk, that's no way to get what you want. How can I leave you alone if I can't get out the door? I'd rather not be bitten, you know. Right now, you're keeping me here when you want me to leave. What good will that do?" He smiled softly and moved to the other side of the room. If she were to attack him, and he knew she would likely attempt such a thing, he had a sedative prepared and ready to go. He could handle being bitten if it kept his product from escaping. Of course, if that didn't work, he could always bind her or bleed her enough that she passed out. He was willing to do any of the above.

[Sheena]

He did have a point,she moved away from the door and skittered across the floor to the far side of the room.Again she took a seat and held her bunny with both arms around it,her little eyes glared towards Lezard.Every little fiber in her body wanted to bite him,bite him like a animal would when cornered.Her crimson gaze looked at the scars of where needles had been injected into her,there we're fresh ones too.How come she hadn't changed into a monster by now,and the stuff they had been poking into her what was it for.Looking up at the ceiling she huffed,this was no fun anymore.

"I want to go outside,I hate it here".

She kept her eyes at the ceiling,Sheena knew she wasn't going outside unless she was one of those creatures.Although she had heard of people escaping before,wonder how far they got before they had been killed.Sighing she looked down from the ceiling,pout on her lips and glaring back at Lezard.Hearing her stomache grumble she tryed to ignore that empty feeling,slowly standing up she inched over towards Lezard.Sitting down then standing up again,sitting and standing that was her pattern till she was somewhat close but kept a good distance between them.That pout still on her lips,and those crimson eyes glaring and not trying to be cute at all.

"I'm hungry".

[Li Wu]

<sup>The door opened once again, revealing a young woman holding a tray of food. It was Li Wu, a security soldier of the facility. "Hello, I'm here to bring you food," said Li. She saw Sheena at the far side of the room. She walked over to her and smiled,"Hello." She placed the food tray down,"You must be hungry." She turned around and saw Lezard there. "Hello Lezard," said Li as she nodded and nodded in respect toward him,"What are you doing here?"

[writer's block @_@ ...]</sup>

[Lezard Hatoshi]

"I want to go outside,I hate it here."

Hatoshi looked up from his notes and over at Sheena. "Yes, I know you do, but we can't let you out until you're stronger. Your survival rate is 50 to 1 at this point in time. Those are quite terrible odds, and we don't want you to get injured. That would be awful," he stated, grinning once again. "The medicine we make you take is to help you keep from getting sick. Unfortunately it makes you somewhat sick at the start, but it will pass soon enough." The young scientist flipped through his notes once more, before stopping on a certain page. He was here to observe how things were going. Perhaps she'd improved some?

"I'm hungry."

It was only when the girl spoke that he realized she'd moved closer to him. "Li Wu will be here with your food soon enough." He smiled as the door opened. "Ah, speak of the devil~"

"Hello Lezard. What are you doing here?"

"Ah, always on the polite first-name basis. You know you can call me 'Hatoshi' like everyone else does, right?" He wrote down some more data points. "In any case, I'm just here to check up on Sheena, to see how she's doing. You know, she's gotten remarkably better since we brought her in."

((Ahaaaa... |D I'd go more into depth, but my brain is lacking functioning capability atm.))

[Sheena]

She kept her distance from the new person who had come into the room,okay so Sheena knew Li but she didn't trust anyone in this stupid place.Seeing the food placed down in front of her she waited till Li turned the other way then gobbled up the food,it was good so good and she was full.Kicking the tray away she stood up and ran to another side of the room before sitting down again,this time her back towards the two.Sitting on her legs she poked at the floor putting her bunny down,remembering she had the flower wreath on her head and took it off looking at it before putting it back on her head.

She listened to Lezard go on and on talking,what did he mean by better she still sometimes felt sick from those icky needles.How come she couldn't just go outside for once,and why did she have to be monitored all the time.Humming lowly she picked up her bunny once again,then stood up once more and ran over to the door again.She gripped the handle and jangled it abit finally getting it open,letting those two talk things over she was going to escape and make a run for the outside she needed to make it this time.

"Nah nah can't catch me".

And in a quick pitter patter of feet,Sheena left the room and ran down the hallway.Now where was the way to outside,wasn't it near the elevator then go down and go near those holding cells.She needed to find a way quick,chances are those two will have seen her run off and will be after her soon enough.
