The nightmares had been worse that night, as if they were an omen for the awful day to come.
037 was drawing a fire when the door opened. Dr. Clavery was there.
"I'm afraid you guys are being separated." he said.
"I'm sorry, what?!" 038 replied, immediately angry.
"I'm here for subject 037." the doctor replied calmly.
He walked over to 037 and grabbed his arm.
"Are you going to hurt me again?" The boy asked with fear in his voice.
"No, your simply being moved." dr. Clavery pulled him towards the door.
"Don't take him!" 038 said as they went out the door, he ran to it and right before it closed he yelled "I promise I'll find you and we'll leave this place!"
The door slammed shut and then there was silence. That night 038 slept alone for the first time in over a month. He slept all night, there was no screaming to wake him. He hated it. He didn't know how he had ever been content to live in a room by himself. He felt nothing but hatred towards the people who were doing this to him and 037. Hatred towards Dr. Clavery for taking his friend away from him. He drew a picture of the doctor being hung and calmed down a bit. He told himself he couldn't give in to anger. In an attempt to be productive he tried hard to recall all the corridors he had walked down when moved to the room he was now in and on the way to check-ups. Using what he could remember he drew a map of the parts of the facility he had seen and marked all the possible areas that could lead to an exit. All he needed now was a chance to roam the halls and find his friend. 038 eagerly awaited his next check up.
