Chapter 6 - An altered past *!?%^@!* ver

a white room, thats what im greeted with, who i am, i know, and yet the speakers go off and surprise me with a name ive never*!>?%&*always heard before

"MARA"

"yes?" my voice is strangely feminine, sounds like a small girls

"test one: toungstein"

the metal?

a metal box appears in the room "touch it Mara"

is he my father? i step up and touch it, it crumbles to dust

"test ends in failure"

wait, what about that one factoid i read about once "w-what about gold?"

"what did she say?"

"i believe gold sir, she wants us to try gold" a new man says, probably a lab assistant

scilence... they left... the lights turn off... whats wrong with them?!? leaving a child here with no food!

...

i wake up to his yelling again

"MARA"

god, this bastard is annoying, i stand as gold appears suddenly, if im right...

"HURRY UP"

god... i go up and touch it, no response

"h-huh?"

"pure gold never corrodes, my power isnt desintigration its moving forward time so fast it turns to dust in an instant"

they sound supprised "w-when did she get this smart!?!"

my apparent father gets mad "WHY DIDNT WE THINK OF THAT"

"i-im sorry sir"

hehe, i want out now

...

no dice, its been a week, and the tests stopped, i get food every now and then, but no one has come and gotten me out, im starting to get worried that this will never end, me being trapped in here, i just want to see the stars, why am i not allowed that? i just want to see those twinkling lights once more, i want to see them, even if i have to break outta here, i mean, if i age things rapidly, this must be pretty degraded, i touch the floor break...break.. break. break! break!! break!!! BREAK!!! BREAKBREAKBREAK!!!

... i heard a snap... IM IN OVERDRIVE BREAK

"creak"

BREAK

"creeeaaaak

BREEAAAAAAK

"CCCRRREEEEAAAAKKKKK

...

im trapped under rubble, i can eat bugs, and i can drink the water, i think im in a cave, the ground is made of rocks, also it seems my upper body has an effect on things, so thats good to know, im slowly digging out, how long will this go on? i need to get out, i just hope to god this is a mountain... wait! light! i break out, there they are, the twinkling lights! what are they called! stars? yea! sta- [altered timeline ended]
