DIVULGE

WEST P.O.V

After Haily said those things, everyone seemed to be in a dumbfounded state and none were able to react accordingly. We all looked at Orie who was now on the ground but what shocked us more was when she suddenly let out a screeching noise. We all got worried and went to her, even Haily who seemed to be confused also went to Orie who was now in what seems to be agonizing.

"Orie what's going on!?" Marille asked in panic. Orie was all curled up and we don't know what to do. I'm now starting to tear up because of the state we are in. We are completely in disarray.

Orie kept on screaming and we don't know what to do. All of us are worried. I saw Danny took something from the bag she's wearing and it was a bottled water. "Here...h-here Orie, please drink this" Danny immediately offered her the water but our friend seems to be not hearing anything as she just kept on struggling. When things were already crazy, we heard something and we looked at Haily who was now laying on the ground with her left arm assisting her composure as her right hand caressing her cheek.

"Why did you slap her!?" Pinty yelled at Jane. "I don't wanna blame anyone but if you didn't started all of this, we wouldn't be in this situation and Orie would not be laying there agonizing in pain!" Jane let out her frustration as her shoulders moved up and down due to her heavy breathing. "I-I'm so-sorry..." We heard Haily trailed off. "Enough! we should now focus on Orie for goodness sake!" Hypo interrupted. We were surprised to see Orie crawling away from us slowly.

"O-Orie? where a-are you going?" Jane stuttered. Orie stood up slowly, surprised were evident on our faces when she turned around as we witnessed how blood was gushing out her right eye. "Orie...?" I called her as she lifts her head up as we witness how black linings are now stretching across her right eye. She gave us a cold stare as she opened her mouth and left out a sigh. "I...don't really know what you're talking about...but I swear, I'm not the enemy here" She said with an absolute tone of hers.

I couldn't say a word as she walked away from us.

I gained my composure when we heard footsteps from behind us. Everything seemed to move slow as it was too late when people wearing black clothing grabs each and every single one of us and made us kneel to the ground. I felt this pulsating pain in my neck in addition to the pain that I'm experiencing inside my head. Everything is happening too fast.

Before I lose my consciousness, I saw how each one of them struggled and seems to be experiencing the pain I'm feeling as well as we were being dragged one by one while some of the people wearing black clothes were running in the same direction Orie went to.

"Please...be s-safe" I let it out as I look to where Orie vanished off to before the darkness devoured my consciousness.

"AAAAAAAAHHHH!!"

"STOP IT PLEASE!!!"

I was woken from my slumber by the loud screams that seems to be coming from outside the room I was in. I looked similar to the room that we were trapped in the first place on this island. I struggled with the chains that was keeping me from reaching the door that was just in front of me.

"Damn it!" I murmured to myself. I kept on trying and all the noise that I was hearing was the commotion coming from outside the room I was in. The clanking of the chains hitting the floor wasn't any better as it made me breathe harder than I already was. "Let me out of here!" I screamed as I keep on making unnecessary noises with the chains. I dropped to the floor when I felt the pulsating pain in my neck. I screamed to the top of my lungs as the pain was surreal and unbearable.

I looked slowly to the door that opened up, revealing a woman; probably in her mid 30's that is wearing a black tent dress. She looked at me with a hint of amusement in her eyes. "Who..are you" I managed to utter as she closed the door when two men in black that seems to be inferior to her as they moved closer to me and lifted me up to stand by grabbing me on each side of my arms.

"I must say, I'm quite impressed; you're the second one out of the group to withstand such excruciating pain" The lady commented as she disregards my question. I looked at her filled with curiosity in my eyes. "Your friends are going through the same thing" She stated as she took the notepad that she had with and started writing on it; probably her observations with me.

She grabbed my face and looked intently in my eyes then moved her gaze somewhere in my neck where the pain was coming from. "You've made it" She added. "What the heck are you talking about?" I asked in a serious tone. The two men put me back down and I managed to stay on my knees. The two stood in front of the lady then was given order to leave the room. It was only her, me and the deafening silence in the room.

Everything settled down, even outside. The commotion seemed to die down as well.

"You and your friends are amusing us my dear, and I intend to keep myself amused every moment there is" She said. "Where are my friends?" I then again asked with no fear evident in my voice. She chuckled for a moment before answering my question. "All of your friends survived the second phase of the experiment aside from, what was her name again? the shortest among you all?" She looked at the ceiling as if it would give her an answer

I looked at her shocked "Pinty" I stated as she glanced at me once again, confirming. "That's right" She said as she shook her head with disbelief. I was disoriented of all the things that are happening but one thing is for sure, we're not in a good place. I picked up the courage to ask what's been bothering my mind.

"What do you mean by survived?"
