Killing

BLUB~

"mm...?"

A small girl was floating in a tall capsule filled with water, and opened her eyes slightly.

"What is this place?", She had many questions go through her mind when she didn't know where she had woken up or who she was. All she could do was move around a little since the container wasn't big enough for her to spin or do much.

She didn't know what was going on but she didnt questioning anything. May this was just a normal thing? She was more intrigued by the bubbles she made instead of the capsule and people standing outside.

"#############"

She couldn't understand what the people outside said, but for an odd reason she had a small feeling of wanting to fight them. It was strange. She also noticed a few more of what she was in, on the other side of the room. Other kids were floating in water as well.

Except, everyone looked different from the people standing in front of her. The kids had strange ears and a tail like thing just below their back. She also had them.

Sometimes when she got bored, playing with her ears or tail would pass the time. The people often came and tapped the glass when I was awake and wrote on something when I responded with another tap.

A while passed by and everything always repeated. Everyday, the people came and tapped the glass. Although, it was getting a little cramped as the days passed by in a flash. She also learned some of the language they spoke.

'Huh?'

Today was different than usual. She woke up but no people came and tapped the glass. She waited but still no one came.

'Maybe they just forgot.' She didn't think much of it at first because everyone forgets sometimes. But after a few hours, different people came and stood at all the capsules.

"Get ready to open the capsules."

She had gotten the idea of what was said. 'Open? Open what?'

Then, she started feeling heavy and the water was slowing draining. Due to the heaviness she never felt before, her legs were weak and she didn't know how to stand without falling over. The same thing happened to the others.

"Put the injection." The people grabbed her arm and poked some sort of needle.

'Ouch-! What was that...?' She started feeling really sleepy after and couldnt help but faint right onto the floor.

'What happened to me?' She woke up to a room with other kids that had the same ears and tail like her, some were awake and some weren't. However, everyone including her was wearing white clothes and we're dried off. she was sitting on the floor of a dark room with a stone floor.

Clank!

More of the weird looking people came into the room with a cart of boxes more needles filled with black stuff. One by one a kid was picked up and brought over to a chair and and tied down. Everyone one of us was nervous about what eas going to happen.

The kid who got picked first had beads of sweat form when the needle was picked up and brought closer to his face. Specifically, right on the cheek under his right eye.

The kid made it seem like it hurt alot when the needle was placed on his skin.

Everyone went a little pale when he started to cry and tried fighting back. The person next to him hit his hand with enough force to make him almost scream and pinned his hand down with his own.

When he was finished, he was lifted and dragged out. A black symbol was made in his skin. It looked like letters she saw but didn't know what they meant. "181".

Every single kid went through the same thing and the cries or screams of kids that fought back filled the room. It appeared that every number was slightly different. She was observing instead because she didn't feel any fear when she saw everything that hapoened.

She didn't know why but she still didn't care. She could find out later. Only four kids each had the same first symbols with different last symbols. It was strange.

Finally it was her turn. Instead of being picked up, she voluntarily got up and walked over to sit down. It seemed to surprise those people that she did that, considering everybody else was cowering in fear. They made note of her behaviour on paper and nodded at the person holding the needle.

The needle started poking her skin, it felt like dozens of needles were poking into her. It made her flinch, but she could tolerate it and just laid there without doing anything. Even though she couldn't see what her symbol was, she felt the needle tracing and made an image in her mind. ' 11 '.

She almost thought she got it wrong since hers was so much shorter than the others. It was only two lines. It was finished up quickly and she was escorted outside with rows and rows of cells built into the walls. The same symbols ingraved above the cells.

She still observed, everyone seemed about the same age as her. Everyone was small looked new to the place but she hadn't seen them before. Also the same first symbols on them was the number above the cells. She had already made theories of what was going on.

One, she was some sort of prisoner. Two, it could be that we're used for something. Three, the first symbols are the cell you're in.

Her theories of being used for something seemed very correct to her since she walked by cells with injured or bloodied kids that seemed to have fought with something.

"You're cell." The guy escorting her pushed her inside a cell and locked the door. She looked up at three other girls sitting and crying. One had yellow hair, one with blue hair, and another with black hair. Their symbols all started with cannot her line as well so her other theory was correct.

The urge to fight them had surfaced again. It was like she unconsciously wanted to fight them. She also almost instantly knew that the moment she saw them, she was much stonger than them in a fight. This time, she just followed what she felt and attacked the black haired girl.

She jumped forward and surprised the other two girls when she bit the black haired girl's neck. It was almost completely natural, she felt as if she had done this thousands of times already. She bit down so hard that the girl's snapped with with a crisp, 'Snap' sound that echoed in the cell.
