It all began with a simple date...

Chapter 10

          And now that Kitty was back, your plan comes back into track. Without her presence, it was sure that it was bound to fail. But now the worries of that happening were erased.

         Cause today seemed like a perfect day to execute it. You anyways couldn't bear the burden of pain she was carrying. It seemed like an instinct that you just wanted to help her out.

        Another jerk of electricity passed through her, the wattage higher than the normal dose. And that jolted her body and caused her eyes to snap open.

        In less than a second, with animalistic instinct, she stood up and bared her fangs. And the real her revealed herself.

        Her fangs were extended and sharp that could slice through anything soft like butter. Her tattoo no more remained a tattoo but had elongated and brought out majestic white-feathered wings, as soft as a dove. Her eyes changed colour, one was dark emerald green while the other was icy blue, her inheritance. Her nails elongated into sharp claws and her ears perked up straight and high, ready to prepare itself the moment it was needed.

        Her animal side was shown and all of it was ready for attack. And it only meant one thing: - her mind barrier was gone.

          Your mouth dropped open as soon as it clicked. You finally understood the reason of this project. It was what you were desperately finding for midst all your research work. And you finally found it. And the truth shocked you.

        "A bioweapon!" You muttered.

        The two scientist that were in the room with you, turned to the source as it seemed it had echoed loud. And you realise that, so to cover it up, you just shake your head a little and smile.

          The both of them then turned back to the girl who was in her attacking stance and wrote what they saw.

           The fact actually disgusted you. Obviously they were trying to make a bio-weapon. All the clues were right in front you and you couldn't connect the dots together until now.

              It was all there. Her talents. Her test results. Her observations. Everything led to that direction. With her talents in play, she was indestructible.

             What hurt your heart the most was the way she was being treated. She was just a child and this was what they were turning her into. At such a young age!

           At first you felt bad for her because she was going through whatever you had gone through. But later, you wanted to pull her out of it. You don't know why but you just wanted to.

         But when you went through her video tapings, you understood the truth. And then you were certain. You were getting her out. But only, if your plan succeeds.

        One of the scientists turned to you. You think her name is Dora but truthfully you don't care. You were getting out of here anyway.

       "Samantha, it's your job now... Calm her down. Do your magic." She instructs. Yup, Father's replacement. He was out for the day.

          Plus with my fake disguise, I had to come up with a fake name and a fake back-story and for now, it seemed to work just fine.

         You push the nerd glasses up to your darkened eyes and nod. You leave the room to enter the white one. The moment you open the door, you see the girl turning to you, ready to attack if you make any sudden move.

          She no more reminded of the sweet, innocent girl with the scared eyes. The animal in her had taken over her mind and body and now she no more remembers who she is. She had no control over it.

         What do you expect? She was still so young. How would she learn so quickly?

        You were scared. Not of her. You knew you could handle yourself.

         But you were scared of the fact that her own conscience might be lost forever, replaced by the new identity you were just revealed to.

         You had to take this soft and slow. You had to show her you mean no harm. Maybe there you still had a chance to bring her back.

          "Hi Angelica, it's me!" You say softly as you inch slowly towards her. She returns it with a hiss and stepped backwards in a crouch.

         "Ok, Angelica. Listen to my voice." You had to try calming her down. The only way for her animalistic side to settle down and her conscience to surface. You repeated those words in a soothing voice.

         And once you are convinced that her body had tensed down and you had her complete attention, you moved on. "Angelica, it's me! It's Sammy!" You insisted, hoping that she would remember.

        Only she would call you Sammy. Plus it was the only way to do it. You had to understand if she felt anything for you.

         And to prove your theory, she did. At first she blinked a multiple number of times and then eventually straightened up.

         Her eyes faded into the beautiful original colour that it was and her wings shrunk back into the tattoo it was. Her fangs and claws contracted to where they belong but her ears stayed where it was.

         She realised what was going on and slowly sank to the ground. But before she could fall down, you held her and then let her collapse. Tears began escaping from her eyes and she was whimpering in fear.

        "Kitty, I am here!" You comfort her as you stroke her hair when she lays down her head on your lap. You notice that her hand had gone to her ankle, rubbing it to comfort the irritated skin.

          You also notice that her other hand had clung on to yours. "I'm gonna be here, no matter what." You assure softly. And you see that her eyes were closing slowly and her short breaths were calming down.

          "Sleep... I promise that I won't let them do anything to you." You promise. And she closed her eyes for a small nap. She was tired and she needed it. For what happened this few moments, you think she definitely deserved some rest.

           After all something was going to take place today.

           You take the spare key from your pocket and unlocked the chain. They slowly picked her up like a child and took her to her room which was your previous room.

           It was the same just how you left it. Just a simple white bed and nothing else was there. You just laid her on the bed and pulled the thin brown blanket over her body after making her put on a white dress which was put out for her.

        She was still tired and didn't stir when all the hustle was going on and nor did you want to disturb it. You just kissed her forehead and whispered "Don't worry! I am coming back for you..."
