Chapter 34 - Man In The Tube

Right after Mr. McCray hang up, Mrs. Davis called her husband to hear what he has to say about their daughter taking part in the plan as well only for her to hear him saying they should trust in Mr. McCray.

Meanwhile, right after leaving Mr. McCray's office, Abel decided they should meet up with Perry since they still have fifteen minutes to spare before going back to their classroom.  It didn't take long for them to arrive at the spot where Perry loves to take his rest during the lunch break but to their surprise, he was not sitting there which makes Abel twitch his lip as he muttered.

"did he get angry that I no longer want to associate with him that he refused to come out for a rest".

Abel decided to check other spots where Perry would still consider as the best spot to rest but they still couldn't find him.

"Why don't we go back to take a look at the classroom, maybe he never left in the first place" suggested Lydia.

Agreeing with her suggestion, they went back to the classroom, and just as she has guessed, Perry was still sitting with a book in front of him and it seems like he is enjoying himself.

Seeing that his friend is doing alright, Abel let out a deep sigh before walking up to him as he hit him at the back of his head lightly.

"Here you are reading in a carefree manner while I have been looking for you" said Abel while lowering his head to take a look at what his friend has been reading.

"Since you wanted to have fun with your girlfriend, I didn't see a reason why I should go out, and thank goodness that I decided to bring some of my comic books to school else I don't know how I was supposed to spend my lunch break alone" reply Perry as he put the comic book down.

"eh.. Excuse me, I'm not his girlfriend and do you mind telling me what comic you are reading" asked Lydia with interest.

"Oh, I thought you guys have a thing going on and as for the comic, it's titled the wolves brother" reply Perry before passing the comic book over to Lydia to take a look.

And with an exciting look on her face, she quickly took it and begin to go through it and the more she read the more her eyes widen in amazement which didn't escape the two friends as they could see how she is enjoying herself.

"You seem to be enjoying yourself with the comment book" commented Abel with a chuckle.

And it was only after Abel has spoken that she remembered she was not alone and she return the book back to Perry who pushed it back at her.

"if you are interested in reading, then I don't mind lending you for the time been" he said with a smile on his face.

"But you are not done with it yet so it is not proper for me to borrow it" reply Lydia as he refused to take it.

"that shouldn't be a problem, I can just decide to read something else until you are done" said Abel before taking out another comic book and it was only then that Lydia was able to accept the comic book.

"The name is Lydia" Lydia stretched her hand forward with a smile on her face as she introduced herself.

"Call me Perry" replied Perry before shaking hands with her.

"Nice to meet you Perry. I never knew that there would be someone who finds comic books interested especially a guy" said Lydia.

"They are what I used in keeping myself occupied whenever my parents are not at home" reply Perry with an awkward laugh.

"I guess they are very busy with their work" said Lydia.

"you have no idea" reply Perry with a chuckle.

Seeing the two discussing while forgetting about his existence, Abel couldn't help but clear his throat to gain their attention.

"I can't believe that you both forget that I am still here" he said.

"I'm sorry about that Abel, I was just a little bit carried away…." Lydia suddenly stop speaking as she froze on the spot.

Noticing the abnormality with her, Perry couldn't help but called out to her only for him to get a silent reply.

"I think we should let her be for some time" suggested Abel with his hand holding tight to Perry's hand. It seem like he was going to shake her about.

"How can we just let her be when she is not even saying anything, we better inform a teacher" reply Perry as he got up ready to walk out to get someone to check on Lydia's condition.

"There would be no need for that Perry, you see this is not the first time that she has been in that state so let's just let her be okay" said Abel and it only then did Perry decided to sit and watch.

Meanwhile, Lydia who was saying something a moment ago just lost herself as her consciousness was taken to a strange room that is entirely dark but after some time, the room begins to light up and she could see her surrounding.

After the whole room has lighten up did she knew that she has been brought to a laboratory as she could see some animal skulls and body parts being stored in tubes but there was just one tube in particular that didn't have any animal body parts stored in it instead, there was a man who seems to be asleep inside the tub.

Out of curiosity, she decided to go forward to take a closer look to see if he is still alive but just as she started staring at the man to see if his body would move the slightest, the man whose eyes has been closed suddenly open up which scared the hell out of her and the next moment everything begins to blur and the next thing she sees, she was about to the classroom.
