Secrets pt 2

The man leaning on the sink wrinkled his brow.

“What kind of complications?” he asked leaning over.

I saw something sticking out from under his jacket but I dismissed it and kept listening.

“The extra vials, they are going to come late. The professor who agreed to the experiment said the school denied him access to the labs. They were beginning to get suspicious of him…” He flinched getting ready for a possible blow from the other man, but he stayed calm.

“Dave stop worrying, you’re acting like I’m gonna shoot your a**. I know delays happen aren’t exactly the greatest but hell, they happen. The governor won’t be happy about this I know, and we already have all of our subjects on P-5. So where is the stuff I came for anyway?”

“It’s in a car, in the parking garage on Applegate and 7th.” Dave replied.

“Good, good…” the man on the sink said trailing off, “give me the keys.”

“But, won’t we be going there together Adam, like right now?”

Just then Adam whipped his arm around hitting Dave in the face. He collapsed to the ground holding him face, rolling on the ground.

“What the –“ Dave began.

As Dave was talking, Adam had shot his arm around to his back. He gripped something stuck in his pants and pulled it in front of him. It looked like a Colt M1911A1 but slightly modified, as if there was a built in silencer. Adam pointed the gun at Dave’s head and fired. Hardly any noise came from the gun; I guess my assumption of a silencer was right.

I couldn’t believe what I had just seen. My hands covered my mouth locking in a scream. My heart was beating a million miles a minute… It felt like I was breathing so loud, he had to have heard me. Adam had dragged the body to a stall in the middle of the restroom. I could hear him set the dead body of Dave on the toilet. I sat there praying he wouldn’t see my partly closed stall at the end. I propped my feet up on the seat so he wouldn’t see gray and white tennis shoes. He then looked around the room as if he was aware of me. He then walked to the sink and got some paper towels to wipe up the little bit of blood that was on the floor, apparently the shot was clean… I mean really clean. He then wiped off the handle on the door, the sink and anything else he touched with his prints on it. I sat on the seat petrified. I stared out of the crack of the door for 5 minutes before I could get up and walk out. I walked back into the café and looked around. I didn’t see the man named Adam. I gathered my things at the table and walked to my car as casually as possible. I unlocked the car and sat clutching the steering wheel.

…should I go to the police? Will they think I was involved?...

I decided that I should just go home and think it over there. If that man was around here still I didn’t want to see his face again. While I was driving I realized this one black Camaro kept following me.

…nah they are just going to the same place I am that’s all, paranoid, just paranoid…

I pulled up to my apartment building and turned off the car. The Camaro just drove past. I couldn’t see the driver considering the windows were tinted so dark. I sighed and got out of my car. I entered my apartment and sat on the couch.

“Oh my God my life is completely psychotic….” I say out loud.

As I sat for a few minutes I decided that if I go to the police they could protect me…right? I was almost to my car when I froze. A shadowy figure was standing there staring at me.

“Excuse me miss, but I think you were in the wrong place at the wrong time.”

I didn’t want to believe he was standing there. I was in a trance as I looked into his eyes, those dark hateful eyes. Something just seemed different, as if he wasn’t fully human. In a split second he was around me, hand over my mouth and clutched my hands behind my back.

“Now you already know what my car looks like. It’s off to the right. Walk with me to my car calmly and get into the front passenger seat. If you try anything stupid I will shoot you. Do you understand miss?”

“Ye-, yes sir…”

We both walked outside and did as Adam said. Once we were both in the car he locked the doors and we drove off.

“As you already know I have a small pit stop to make.” He said glancing at me.

We arrived at the parking garage and pulled up to a car. It was rather old car with a dented quarter panel. Adam reached over me to get to the glove compartment. He took out a pair of handcuffs and handcuffed my wrists to the steering wheel.

“These are just so you don’t try to split miss.”

It was a rather awkward position considering I was stretched across to the driver’s side. Adam approached the car and opened it. I couldn’t really see what he was doing because he was leaning inside the car. It looked like he was trying to pry something loose. He then threw a part of a seat out of the car and lifted up a small briefcase. He had a hint of a smile and began to walk back to the car. He got in and grinned.

“I got it.” He said stupidly.

“Why should I care? What’s so special about it anyway?”

“This, my dear contains documents, documents that have detailed diagrams and research data of a so-called sleeping chromosome. If a human is injected with this it activates the “sleeping” chromosome. This chromosome, once activated makes a person…how do I say this? Super-human perhaps? Although each person injected has had a different trait…fascinating really.”

…..I sat stunned and in disbelief. “Why do you even want to make people uh, super?”

“We are making an army.”

“WHAT?!? FOR WHO?!”

“For the U.S of course, well not really the citizens of the States but more for a certain group that has been planted throughout the government system.”

“The President will find out! You just can’t do that right under their nose!” I shouted at Adam.

“Hahaha but your President is one of our bugs! Like I said we have bugs planted throughout your precious system!”

“How the hell can you do that? People will find out!”I said becoming scared and confused.

“It is called schmoozing and paying people off in order for one person to win and the other to lose, it’s quite simple if you play the game right. We aren’t just in your country though, we are in many others which I will not discuss with you at this time because we are.”

“Eh?“

We were at an airport. He got out of the car and walked to my side of the car. He opened my door and grabbed my arm yanking me out of the car. He brought me to a hanger with a small unmarked jet.

“Hey Adam, whatcha got there?” A man said tilting his head toward me.

“This lovely young lady shall be another test subject.” Adam said sadistically.

“WHAT THE HELL?!? Test me?! Oh no you don’t, you’re not putting that magic serum crap in me!” I scream in his face.

“Well you saw and heard things that you weren’t supposed to, what did you think I was going to do? Be a moron and let you go? Although, even if you did attempt to explain what was going on you would be immediately silenced by one of our people. I don’t want to risk anything though so you are coming with me. Oh and we need more healthy test subjects anyway…we had some mishaps with the last three.”
