Invidia Mark

Chapter One

Chapter One

A soft growl left my throat as I eyed them with pure rage. They looked down at me like I was an experiment, but the thing was. I was an experiment. Their toy that they would throw out once I was no longer of entertainment or use for them. For seventeen years, I’ve lived here trapped. Where was here? I didn’t know. They never said, but because of my latest attempt escape. They cuffed me and locked me in a cage with no hope of escaping. They caused the bruises that now formed on my wrist and ankles. They were cruel, and cruelty is all they’ve ever known.

“Fallon,” a voice called from the hall way.

My eyes slowly made their way towards him. Turd. I leaned back against the cold, silver bars of the cage. They sent a shiver down my spine and bare back but I couldn’t care less. I’ve been through worse, since they treated me the worse. A crooked smile crept on my face, “Ass hole.”

“Now, now. No need for those words,” he said. He approached my cage and peered down at me. His dark blank eyes watched me carefully. He had a crooked, mad scientist look to his appearance. His hair was dark brown that went along with his lean body. Maybe around his late 30’s but still looked like a young adult. Though he was a mad scientist that could break your neck in one twist was what he was. Who was he? He was…

“Krone, the IMSO is here.”

I snapped my head at the direction of the door where his assistant stood there. Her tall, model like body would make any boy swoon. Her bleached blonde hair, tanned body, young adult age, with sparkling blue eyes just added to the package. Though her personality was like a drunken man’s: cold, cruel, no heart, and did whatever had to be done. Her name was Madera. 

“Thank you, Madera. Please tell them Fallon and I will be there shortly,” he said coldly, shooing her off with his hand.

She showed her million dollar smile with bare white teeth replying, “As you wish.”

I couldn’t help but roll my eyes at her pitifulness. It still surprised me she graduated as top student in her class. Her attitude and brains just didn’t fit. I’ll admit I was a bit judgmental, but being her prisoner- I mean student, you’d know what I mean. Almost 24/7 training nonstop with no breaks, until perfection is reached gets tiring, and is painful. Though I just really just wanted to escape and be free from them. My entire life I’ve been here. Here only. My parents lost their memory of me. Just so some insane scientists could have the pleasure of being known to be the first to study the Invidia Mutation. 

When Madera left, Krone turned his attention back to me. He sneered, “Behave or you won’t be having any dinner tonight.”

“You know I’m pretty sure this child abuse.”

“And you know I’m sure no one will miss you if you’re dead and gone.”

I licked my teeth, and folded my arms. “’Kay that hurt.”

“Good. Now I’m warning you, Fallon. Behave. We need to show these men and woman how much you’ve developed since you were fifteen.”

“I know the drill. Big smiles, positive comments, and…” I clasped my hand together like a jolly five year old girl. “’I’m so happy here! I couldn’t ask for more! Krone and Madera are like my parents! I love them so much!’ Pft please.”

Krone gave a small groan of annoyance. He didn’t like cockiness, or sarcasm. I’d probably pay for it later. Though I’m sure it’ll just be worth it. I’d get out of here someday, even if it was the last thing I did. This wasn’t a home. These people weren’t my family. I wasn’t happy here. I didn’t want to be the human experiment. This was a prison. These people were my enemies. I was miserable here. I wanted to be free.

Krone left to go ahead as the other scientist known as Scientist Dumb, and Scientist Dumber would bring me, no scratch that, roll, force, and possibly drag me to the others. They took me out of the cage, pulling the chains to my cuffs slowly behind them. I swear they were like twins: red heads, hazel eyes, skinny figures, and ache. Maybe if they were more buff, and got rid of the ache, and wacko hair styles and clothes they’d be good looking like Fred and George Weasley. Yes, I may be stuck here but they brought me books. I had TV if I behaved and music, but it just made me feel worse that I was here and all those people were out there. 

“What are they going to do when Little Miss Sarcastic becomes 18?” I heard Scientist Dumber ask Scientist Dumb. 

“I can hear you, you know!” I complained. “Yeah, just don’t mind me! Not like I can hear you or anything.”

“Ignore her, Greg; she’s a smart mouth as well.”

I rolled my eyes. Dumb and Dumber were really…dumb. I just never understood why two boys around ages 20 and 21 would work for this hell hole of a place. Wait, it because their daddy was Krone. I felt bad for their mother, and envied her and her escape of them. I was one of the only teens here. The others they locked were for...

I really don’t know. Since I’ve been here, I’ve only known Greg and Max (Dumb and Dumber), Krone, Madera, and few other people. I was my own best friend. Though I managed, because there wasn’t much I could do. It was me, myself, and I. Yep! Such an exciting life.

“And I have so much to say to that, but I guess I’ll just shut up because obviously you two live up to your names of Scientist Dumb and Dumber.”

Scientist Dumb scowled, “Just keep up the pace, Fallon.”

“You have no privilege to say my name!”

“Whatever.”

Though Scientist Dumber slowed down and whispered, “He’s Scientist Dumber, right?”

“Yeah, he is.” I lied.
