I wanted to move but I couldn't, I was stuck in place. Then the scene of him slapping her just kept replaying in my head and I just got so mad that I wasn't thinking and my feet started moving on their own, next thing I know I'm in front of White Fang and I had just slapped him. Stupid, stupid, stupid, how could I do something as stupid as slapping the man that could end my life in two seconds. He looked like he wanted to kill me right then and there but he just walked away then signaled to some of the workers and then I was being held back and dragged to my tiny closet-sized room that they then locked me in. They always did this, if you tried to fight back you just get locked in your room like you were grounded. It's kind of ironic, a place that is supposed to give us the ability to fight back in society won't let us fight them. 

     About thirty minutes had passed when I heard someone knock on the door, there were only two people that this could be either the worker that was in control of everyone in this section of the lab or Chloe coming to tell me that it wasn't my problem and I shouldn't have slapped him like that even though I already knew all that and the weird thing is that I don't even regret what I did. I mean yeah I am now trapped in my room but I would rather be here anyway and I learned that he doesn't like to fight back or that he cant fight against someone that doesn't fear him as if he were a god or a deity. I asked who it was and was relieved when I heard Chloe talking and not the worker. She asked me if I was ok and if they had hurt me after that. "I'm fine, they didn't hurt me and they couldn't if they wanted." I responded in a joking tone and she giggled, I'm glad Chloe isn't hurt I thought that White Fang would've hurt her more after that stupid stunt I played " I admire you, you know, the way you can stand up to people without hesitation." Chloe said out of nowhere " I'm not allowed to be here so I should go, and you shouldn't have done that." 

    I was surprised that she looked up to me because I looked up to her all the time, the way she can trust people so easily and without a second thought help someone in need. I only stood up with her because my body moved on its own and I don't stand up to workers only when they punch or hit someone without reason, I'm not that good of a role model because all I do is argue and fight with everyone except her and I can't believe that she said I shouldn't have helped her. That's what's wrong with everyone here. They all just follow instructions blindly, you can be scared but you at least have to try and get rid of the problem that's causing the fear to begin with. I don't know why more people want to get out of here, is it because of the promised powers or because they are so scared of White Fang. They can't possibly take us all out even with their abilities. Almost everyone here knows all the workers' abilities so I'm sure we can make a plan to escape here. It's just that no one knows White Fang's ability, he's never shown anyone not even the head of the lab.

     I thought that I should go over this with Chloe after dinner which was a few hours later so I started thinking of ways we could escape when I remembered I can't talk to her after dinner because we have a blood test today so I would have to talk to her after breakfast tomorrow. The blood test is to make sure we are not sick and that we aren't just late developers, which means that we just got our ability late. They can tell this because there is a special mineral that starts to develop in your blood when you get an ability. They tell us that if we do end up developing an ability they would send us back home to our families and friends. I don't think that they would send us home. I think that they would keep us for their selfish experiments to see how much they could hurt us before we break or see just how much physical and mental abuse we can take before we go insane. I was thinking so much I didn't realize how much time had passed it was already time for dinner.

     I heard everyone running down the halls and laughing at each other, I don't understand people who can always look at the bright side of things because all I see when I walk down the halls is the reminder that we can't get out of here and never will and the faint stains of blood that are still there from beating people to their breaking point or the verge of death. I still tried to look happy when Chloe showed up and we walked to dinner together, she always looks so happy about everything even after being beaten she still has that faint smile on her face. When we got to the cafeteria or the dining room as the workers like to call it. The workers told everyone to put in their selection of food from the choices tonight. I put in my regular grilled cheese, even though they hate pretty much all of us they give us good food. Gordan Ramsay quality food or at least close to it, it was almost like I was having fun for the first time in forever because I knew that I can finally escape and I can tell my best friend about it. Then the time for a blood test came around and my happiness faded as quickly as it had come.
