Hey kid, wanna grab a bite to eat?" Davis asked as he looked at Max "I mean today is your big day after all"
Davis chuckled as he looked at max's dumbfounded face
'God please save me from this demon' Max thought
Davis and his team had surrounded Max as if he was a prisoner. Max who was in the middle walked along not saying anything and blankly staring at the floor. He was emotionless, his family has stripped away from him and now he was being taken to an unknown place. He had even forgotten about his injured arm.
he kept subconsciously pray to some higher being, he wanted to go back, he wanted this nightmare to end.
Shortly after they arrived at the bottom floor, Max could see the building manager sitting, Mr Phil, sitting on his desk.
Max looked at Mr Phil with desperate eyes, hoping that he might, in some way, be able to help him, however, Mr Phil looked away without any sort of hesitation.
As Max left the building he couldn't help but say "bye, mom." Although it was a silent whisper, the men in black heard him but decided to remain quiet.
"Yeah, sucks. Leaving your parents sucks." Said Davis nonchalantly
Davis's attitude was now getting on Max's nerves, but Max knew he couldn't do anything. Max didn't want to provoke Devis, he already knows Devis had a screw or two loose. Max thought that he still somehow might be able to go home one day.
"What do you want from me?" Max finally asked, Max used to be an outgoing and confidant person but now he was shattered even asking a simple question took every ounce of mental strength he had
"Well, I thought you'd ask where I was taking ya but sure that's a good question as well" he replied
After walking for a while they finally made it to a massive SUV it was bigger than any SUV Max had seen. It was modified, with 8 doors and 6 wheels. You could seat 13 people with ease
"But first get in," Davis said opening the car door
Max nodded and entered the vehicle. He sat in the 3rd row, 1 row ahead of the last. There were three seats in each row. Max was in the middle while a female who he hadn't seen before was sitting on his right and Davis sat at his left.
"Alright, Bella could you blindfold the kid?"
"Yes sir," she said before swiftly blindfolding Max, she also proceeded to gently warp some bandage around his arm
"W-wh-" before Max could ask why they blindfolded him Davis responded by saying.
"So you can't tell where we're headed, simple," he said presumably smiling, but Max couldn't see so he couldn't tell.
"So," Davis said rubbing his hands together, "Ya asked about what we want from ya?"
Max simply nodded in response.
"Well, ya should know about what happened to earth right?"
"Yes, I learned about it in school"
"Well, you see people — not counting me of course — really want to go back to Earth, they are quite egoistic and can't stand the fact that they were defeated" Davis replied, he seemed to have gotten personal about it.
"Well the CROSS discovered that they could create Superhumans, humans much stronger than normal soldiers, this is something that CROSS knows PRIMA doesn't have"
"To make these special humans, you need a special person, a person with RH-NULL blood type"
"W-whats RH-NULL?" Max asked
Davis *sighed* "kid, pay attention in school okay?"
"Um, I'm, sorry I must have missed it" Max quickly apologized hoping that Davis wouldn't get mad and point a gun at him
"I'm not talking about you... I'm talking about me, I didn't pay attention to that stuff. Bella, could you tell him?"
Bella nodded and started to respond "It's special blood that is EXTREMELY rare, it was first found in Australia, back on Earth, but we didn't know what it did. Until now. The CROSS found that this blood had special properties which allow it to easily be modified and has a longer lifespan than normal cells" she responded as if she was a robot, it was kind of startling
of course, this wasn't anything true, CROSS was simply make up excuses, and genetic modification and lifespan expansion was already possible
"T-thank you" max quickly responded
With the discussion over, silence took over the vehicle, the only sound that could be heard was the SUV's engine.
Max started to get a little comfortable with his surroundings, no one had hurt him so far.
"When will I allowed to go back home?"
"Hm, as soon as you help the government and CROSS get Earth back," Davis replied
"W-what? How do I do that?" Max panicked as his fears came to life he now knew that there was no coming back.
"Dunno" Davis said, he was starting to get annoyed by max's constant questions.
Max had lost all of the previously gained courage, and now all he could do was remember his mom's voice.
______________
After a few hours, the SUV stopped. Max asleep, at some point he fell asleep. Taking the initiative, Bella decided to wake him up.
"Wake up Max," she said repeatedly as she kept shaking Max back and forth
"WA WA MOM!" Max cried his cry had startled everyone present in the SUV
"OH JUST SHUT THE F- FLUF UP" Davis yelled "Grow a pair would ya?"
Max immediately stopped crying. "I- am sorry"
Davis pulled off Max's blindfold, unlocked his door and stepped outside.
*INHALE*
"God I hate this place" Davis muttered "hey kid get out here"
Max quickly began to exit the car his legs were still shaking. The sun was no longer shining. As he looked around all he could see was an empty field, there was nothing around him.
"There's nothing here"
"Our facilities are underground, we don't want to be spied upon by the government or god forbid, PRIMA" Bella replied it was quite out of character for her to suddenly speak up, it was usually Devis who did all the talking.
Davis did his usual *Sigh* and started heading into the empty field the grass the covered the field was quite long. Davis stood there for a second and yelled.
"COMMANDER DEVIS OF BASE 3, CODE 7342"
The patch of grass Davis was standing on started to vibrate and a small pedestal started to come out of the ground, the pedestal had a single big red button on it.
Davis signalled for everyone to come near him, again Max walked in the middle while a crowd of people surrounded him, even if he did try and run there was nowhere he could go.
When they all stood on the patch of grass close to Devis he pressed the button and the patch of grass started to move downwards almost like an elevator.
