Summary

The Disease left some people alone, but not Lauren. She's trapped inside the research compound of ANEXOA, a company set on finding her power. "Subject 27, please get dressed into your testing gear and come with me when you are finished", the guard says in a monotone voice. I nod and go into the bathroom. The clothes the guard gave me are a tight pair of leggings, a tank top, and sneakers. I take a deep breath and look at the mirror. I can do this. I step out of the bathroom, back to where the guard is waiting. He takes my arm and leads me away from the safety of Vince's room. He mumbles into his com for a few minutes as we walk down an unfamiliar corridor. He gives me a disgusting smile. "Looks like they've assigned you to the new recruit", he says. "What do you mean?" I ask. He lets out a short, barking laugh. "New guy. He came in yesterday. He's real young but they say he's a stubborn one. He'll whip you right into shape." I take a deep breath as the guard leads me into a room shaped like a dome. The floors are the same pristine white as the walls and a large steel door prevents me from escaping. There's a large window for the lab techs to observe from at my left and a door for the torturers to enter through. "Test Subject number Twenty Seven, please stand in the marked circle", an automated voice says.
