The escape.

The day had come, today I would escape. And even though these mad scientists had done everything and more to me, I wanted to avoid as much bloodshed as possible.

I was already inside my room, but the locks only activated at a certain time, and at the moment it was time for the guards to change shifts, I could hear their hurried footsteps, their hearts racing. It was time.

Getting up from the bed, I walked silently to the door, and checking by hearing that no one was too close, I hurried to leave the room.

Walking through the cold corridors barefoot, my heart was beating fast, and before I could even cross half of the station an alarm began to echo through the corridors.

' Shit ! ' I thought, the stealth strategy was no longer going to work, now it was time to do some damage.

And now running at super speed, I passed through the corridors dodging frightened scientists and guards who were leaving their rooms due to the alarm.

Finally arriving at the final corridor where the elevator to freedom was located, I came across five heavily armed guards standing in front of the elevator.

And they definitely weren't going to let me go without a fight.

" Go back to your cell !! " shouted one of the guards and positioned himself in front of the others.

" Come on guys, you don't want to do this, it's not worth your lives ! " I said trying to reason with the guards.

" Quiet ! Now go back to your cell before we are forced to open fire ! " said the guard, positioning himself ready to shoot with the others following him.

" Shit ! "

The guards pulled the triggers and with them the projectiles were released.

At high speed I walked towards the bullets that were coming at me at super speed in slow motion.

Calmly dodging the projectiles, I approached the guards, and one by one I attacked them and twisted their arms and legs with enough force to break them. It was painful but it was better than being dead.

Returning to normal speed, the bullets hit the wall where I was at the same time that the guards fell screaming with their limbs twisted in an unhealthy way.

"" AAAAAHHHGGG !! "" The guards screamed as the pain hit them.

" I warned you " I said wiping my blood-stained hand on my hospital gown.

" Don't worry, you won't have any permanent damage " I said passing over the guards who were still groaning in pain on the floor.

" I mean... " I said pressing the elevator button and it opened, and I entered.

" Maybe they do, I'm not a doctor " I said to them with only two paying a little attention to what I said due to the pain. And with that, the elevator closed, taking me upstairs.

At the top of a New York building, one of the richest men in the country, perhaps the world, sat in a luxurious office.

He had managed to climb the corporate power hierarchy well enough to be able to invest in the right areas, in certain "cosmetic" areas to be more specific, and now the company he is CEO of is internationally known as Vought. And that man is Stan Edgar.

Stan Edgar was a cold, calculating man, who did everything to get where he is, and would do it all over again if necessary.

But at the moment, he was enjoying a delicious tea, and sipped it calmly while soft classical music played in the background.

However, his rest was disturbed by a warning that came in the form of a disturbed assistant who arrived, opening the door to his office abruptly, disturbing him.

" This better be important, Stillwell, " Stan Edgar said, already annoyed.

" Of course, sir ! " The blonde girl said, quickly heading to the boss's desk.

" We had a problem with the America project, " the girl said nervously, handing an envelope to the boss.

Stan, realizing the gravity of the situation, opened the envelope and, reading it, turned pale.

" This must not be disclosed by any means, it does not leave this room ! " Stan Edgar said, standing up irritably.

" N-No way, sir, " said the blonde girl, who was already nervous enough to faint.

" Great, now get out of here and call Noir to my office, now ! " He said, punching the table, making the woman come out of her trance and quickly disappear from his sight.

Stan Edgar walked restlessly to the window of his office and nervously ran his hand over his forehead. He had started to sweat.

" This can't be happening, " he said, incredulous at the situation the company, him, and everyone else were in now.

With the elevator opening I quickly ran out, some guards still tried to stop me by shooting at me, only for their bullets to fall on the floor and only damage my clothes.

And with the main exit in front of me I increased my speed. And in the blink of an eye I went through the reinforced door of the facility with an explosion that caused several debris fly through the air.

I found myself in the midst of chaos, dust and dirt floating in the air, and I was dirty from them.

The sky was shining with stars, it was a beautiful night, how I missed that.

Closing my eyes I allowed myself for a moment to enjoy the cold night air.

But it didn't last long, in the distance I could hear a distinct sound. And using my telescopic vision I could see helicopters in the distance.

' They are fast '

It was now or never.

Crouching with my fists on the ground I closed my eyes in concentration, let my strength flow through my body, and felt a lump in my throat dissipate.

Around my fists small vibrations made the ground tremble, and in a burst of air I shot up into the night sky.

The ground falling behind, that hell falling behind, letting my instincts take over I continued accelerating towards the sky, accelerating towards my freedom.
