.:.Jasmine "Jazzie" Nadez.:.
I couldn't help but wonder where I was--after I finally woke up, but instantly I knew. My stomach twisted in bitter agony. I was in one of those sparkly clean test rooms. Usually afterwards, it was red with blood. I'm sure theses 'tests' were just ways to torture us, let us know that they can do whatever they wanted and we were simply powerless.
Then the hideously annoying tap. tap. tap. of high heels came toward me. I went to cover my ears--a reflex-- but already a regretted it. When I moved my hands, the rusty metal of my shackles cut into my skin, but I didn't make a sound. I knew that was all they wanted from me. The satisfaction of hearing me scream in pain. These sick....monsters. I couldn't even bring myself to think of them as people.
"Ah.....Jasmine...we're just doing a few simple tests, if you cooperate then you'll be released easily." The woman said, once she stopped in front of me. I'd heard that speech so many times, just a rehearsed phrase written on a clipboard, no real sincerity behind in. Just to humor her, I nodded and put on my most hopeful smile. I could almost feel the devious smirk that spread across the woman's face.
"Could you please open your eyes for me?" She asked, in sweet voice that probably would have never existed in real life, "If you don't, we'll have to punish you." She added, her tone slightly darker.
I wasn't going to open them, afraid of what I might see. A man? A woman? A child? I was never one to cooperate with these treacherous people, so I clenched my fist, waiting for the repercussions.
Suddenly, like thousands of pins and needles shooting through my veins, electricity pulsed through my skin. I still didn't cry out in pain though. My jaw clenched tightly, and my knuckles were white from being clenched so tightly. My eyes remained closed, inside I was shrieking in pain, writhing in agony, begging for them to stop. I didn't let it show, my muscles were tensed and I was just hoping that they'd crank it up and just electrocute me to death, but they knew exactly how much we could take.
A suddenly as it began, it was over. My body slumped over, muscles relaxing one by one. My breath came in sharp gasps; it felt as if my inside were fried. Then just to make it worse, the tapping of those annoying high heels echoed against my eardrums. Once again I went to cover my ears, and the metal dug into my skin again. My arms must have been covered in blood by the smell of it.
My 'doctor' stopped in front of me, her anger and irritation pulsing off of her. Her hand grabbed my chin roughly. Big mistake. The one thing I hated was being touched, especially by their filthy hands. I shrieked; the sound was loud and high pitched. I hissed at her, like some deranged feline, and lunged forward, only to be cut repeatedly by my shackles. My teeth snapped at her hands, which still held firmly to my chin. This wasn't my first fit. But she was being cocky, if I wasn't chained to this wall, she would have lost that pretty face of hers.
Then I did something she didn't expect. My eyes snapped open as another hiss escaped through my teeth. And like that she was locked. Her eyes grew wide, as she stared into mine. Her hand fell away from my face, and pressed against her chest. Then she fell to her knees, shaking in unimaginable pain. I kept my gaze on hers, my lips pulled back over my teeth. Then the woman started shaking more violently, in a seizure.
Then a moment later, her eyes rolled into the back of her head, and she was still. My eyes didn't look away until two men rushed in, one took her away, and the other unchained me and threw me into the hallway. My arms and legs were covered in my blood; my white gowned was stained red. I could taste blood in my mouth from where I clenched my jaw so hard, my teeth cracked.
My eyes slowly closed, as I pulled myself to my feet, and walked down the hall as if nothing happened. Like I was just any normal person, covered in blood.
