SYNCHYSI

WEST'S P.O.V

The lady already left the room half an hour ago and I'm still here digesting all of the information that I gathered so far. I can't express how my emotions are overwhelming me.

I punched the cold floor and the only thing I could hear was my heavy breathing and the cry I'm letting out.

We just lost a friend of ours and we weren't even there to help her...I'm losing to my emotions and my body is weighing me down.

All I could think of was Orie because she was always there for Pinty the most. I can't imagine how the others would react, especially Orie.

I knew that I was about to faint and the only thing that came out of my mouth was a plea

"Please...save us"

ORIE'S P.O.V

"LET GO OF ME!" I screamed as two men are pinning me down on the ground while the other two are pointing their guns at me. As soon as I left my friends, these men in black attires started to chase after me but then, I got caught when I was cornered by the cliff.

"I said to freaking let me go you bastards!" I yelled. They did not even flinched and not seconds had passed when I heard the fifth guy spoke to this device that seemed to be a communicator. "Thema-1S had been successfully captured and team Rec will now return to home base"

After the call, the fifth guy turned to me and signaled the rest to follow him. They hand-cupped my hands behind my back as well as my feet so I did not bother to struggle and let them carry on to what their goal was in the meantime.

They put me inside an armored vehicle so I wasn't able to know where we're headed. The ride probably took less than a half of an hour when the vehicle motioned to halt. Not minutes had passed when the vehicle moved again and I almost lost my balance. I tried my best to think clearly and even noticed that the only weapon I had was the machete that I forgot to take as I walked away from everyone.

"I promise...I'd fulfill the promise I swore to all of you" I said inside my head as the door to the armored vehicle opened up and the men who captured me dragged me out of the vehicle. They put a collar chain in my neck and that is what they're using in order to drag me.

This looks like a hidden facility that would be seen in movies where mad scientists do their experiments. I can hear familiar voices screaming in pain that made me anxious. It's them-they're also here!

I looked around and on the left part of the hall where I'm standing, I can see through the transparent glass what seems to be a scientist or a doctor checking on something. I was about to go check when the man holding the end of this chain in my neck pulled it.

My neck is starting to ache from all of this dragging. I glared at the guy who pulled the chain but I can't see his face due to the head gear they are wearing. Damn you.

I was dragged once again and I didn't even noticed that we had stopped in front of a room. There was no window and as soon as they opened the door, I slammed to the floor when someone kicked me inside. I let out a growl as I feel the ache of my whole body.

I crawled to the opposite side of the room, ignoring my bleeding right eye again. I stopped and curled into a ball, enduring the pain that's spread across my whole body. I heard a clank and saw that they attached the chain in the wall and they were about to exit the room when I quickly got and rushed towards them but I only ended up coughing due to the restraint in my neck. I even heard the men laughing because of the incident.

I looked at them as I hold my neck with teary eyes. "I swear, I'll hunt you all down" I said with a serious look and a heavy tone of voice. They looked at each other and this one guy went to me and knelt down to my level.

"I'd like to see you try" he said before punching me in the gut that made me weaker as I already am.

"Arrrggggg...!" I let out a painful sound as I curled myself up, tucking my arms in my stomach. They finally left and I ended up alone in the cold room when I heard the door opening once again and saw a pair of black stilettos. I looked up to see an unfamiliar face.

"I told them to be gentle but here you are...well, anyways" She said as she closed the door behind her after two men in black went near me and assisted me to stand up. I was holding my stomach due to the pain and the lady took a note pad and a pen then started to write on it, as if she's taking down some notes for observing me.

"What is this p-place?" I asked and she gave me an amused look. "You're like the previous one and I must say, you look like a tough one" She replied.

"What do you mean by 'previous one' and what the hell is this place?" I asked in an shivering voice. She shrugged off my questions and continued to write on her pad. She went closer to me and cupped my face, turning it on both sides. She used her pen to set aside the hair that's covering my right eye.

"You're a peculiar one"
