557
Dear Diary
Tomorrow is my 16th birthday. Yesterday I was given some kind of shot that made me pass out and when I woke up I was thirsty but water still isn’t helping. My fire abilities are getting stronger and I started to be able to create ice and water as well as a few other abilities like moving things in my cell just by imagining them moving. I don’t know what they did to me but I feel different. My sense of smell is getting better by the day. I think I’m going crazy. They keep giving me some weird blue liquid and injecting me with something every day. My training is going well and is the only thing that keeps me sane. 215 was killed because she tried to stab a guard. I really miss her. I had this weird dream. It was an escape that I planned out but everyone was dead other than me. That was when I woke up. I still don’t know why I use this journal. It just feels right.
Sincerely subject 557 (AKA me)
Finishing my new diary entry I close my journal and slip itunder my mattress so no one can find it I walk to the small nightstand by my bed in the corner of the cell and take out a clean bra and short shorts. Personally, I would rather have more to wear but this is all they give me. I am the only one of us that has to wear this everyone else gets jumpsuits. Walking to the small mirror I change to the black lace bra and jean shorts. Walking to my door I knock so the guard knows I’m ready to go to breakfast.
“Hey subject 557 before you go eat, I have a message from the higher ups that they want you to go to the lab when you finish eating.” The guard says as we walk to the cafeteria.
“I assumed so because I’ve gone there every day for the past week.” I say.
“They wanted to have me ask how the fires keep happening?” he says.
“I slide my bedframe on the cement really fast and it releases sparks to start a fire.” I say not wanting to tell them the truth.
“Why?” he asks with fake concern.
“Because I have nothing better to do.” I say with a shrug.
“You should stop doing that you could hurt yourself.” he says sternly.
“Maybe I will Maybe I wont.” I reply nonchalantly.
As we get to the cafeteria the room goes quiet. I am the most dangerous of all of us. I have blue and red eyes and for some reason it scares everyone, but I don’t understand why. I mean there just eyes.
I walk to the lunch line and take a salad walking to a table of girls and giving them a glare. They all immediately shoot from their seats and run away so I can sit alone like always. There isn’t a point in making friends. If you are level 10 like me, they kill anyone we talk to just to fuck with us.
Subject 132 to sit at my table today. She is a level 1 that just won’t leave me alone. I just look over the table and snarl at her causing her to whimper and shrink in her seat with fear in her eyes.
“Go away 132 I don’t want you here.” I say annoyed
"I just came to tell you that 558 was killed last night because he was sending you notes." she says with a smirk.
558 was the only other level 10 in the building and we had been best friends since we were little.
"I don’t care asshole now leave me alone." I say angerly.
She just smirks and walks away.
I lost my apatite just looking at her, so I pushed my plate forward and stood walking to the guard to escort me to the lab for them to do more experiments on me.
Walking in Violet walks over to me.
"We want to test your ability of using different weapons." she says motioning to a table of knives, guns, throwing stars, and a bow with a quiver of arrows. Along with some people I recognize as subjects 57, 739, 1253, and 555 tied to the wall.
"Can I kill with them?" I ask looking at Violet with an evil smirk
"Of course, 557 do whatever you want with the weapons on the table." she says sweetly
"Anything?" I ask walking to the table
"Yes child whatever you want." she says in a devilish tone.
"Do I have to only use the weapons, or can I also use my hands?" I ask looking at her with a devilish smirk that matches the tone she was using a second before.
"That sounds interesting. You can do that too if you want." she says curiously.
"Thank you." I say cheerily sounding a little evil.
Turning back to the table I put on gun straps and knife sheathes loading them with weapons. Turning back to Violet I put my palm up and froze her. Turning to the shocked faces of the guys on the wall I reach out and start them on fire before I run out of the room and kill everyone outside triggering the alarm.
I learned that if I use my abilities too much that I pass out, so I pull out a gun and put up a forcefield around my body as I shoot all the guards that come after me.
Running to the cafeteria I notice everyone is still there oblivious to what happened.
"Containment breach everyone back to your cell immediately." I hear someone say over the loudspeaker, but it was too late I had already killed everyone in the building and was walking to the small building where the microphone to the speaker is just as the man who made the announcement stepped out. I know I can't leave anyone alive. Most would try to kill me or other innocent people.
"If you answer my questions, I will consider sparing you." I say threateningly as I back him into a wall.
"What do you want to know?" he asks with fear in his voice
"Are there any facilities like this and are there any buildings other than this with people who work with you?" I ask as I use something I learned that makes me able to tell if someone is lying or if they don’t know.
"There are 4 other facilities in the forest." He says shakily.
"What position are you in this whole thing?" I ask knowing full well he understands what I'm asking.
"Creator." He says shakily
"Well then goodbye my little creator." I say as I shoot him in the head.
Walking to the building I find a big bag of money and run to the forest.
