Chapter 2 - Chapter Two

I could hear whispers in the background as my eyes flutter open. I couldn't quite understand what was being said but I could hear more than two voices. When my eyes finally open, all I can see is a very bright chandelier with little tear drop charms hanging around the outside. It's more of a modern day chandelier but it very beautiful.

I attempt to sit up however, when I do, I get dizzy and very nauseous. One of the voices I heard walks over to me and started saying something but the ringing in my ears were too loud so I couldn't understand anything coming out of his mouth. As the ringing began to settle, the nausea and dizziness started to fade away. I could finally understand what the tall and very handsome man was saying. "Are you ok? Can you hear me? How many fingers am I showing?" He gave me a sympathetic look and sat down on the couch I had apparently been passed out on.

"Get out of my face you dimwhit" I answered back in a harsh tone.

"Yep, she's perfectly fine", said another male voice across the other side of the room. "Give her some space Alex. She was just drugged and pretty much kidnapped."

"I was what!?" I shout, jumping up accidentally knocking Alex on his ass. "You kidnapped me? And drugged me? Who the hell are you people?!"

"Allow me to properly introduce myself." He puts his hand out to shake mine, "Im Kane. And this is Alex. And this place, is called the Guardian House but everyone just calls it the institute." He gives me a concerned look knowing damn well I wasn't gonna shake his hand. Especially considering what they did to me. Eventually the man puts his hand back down. "Alright fine. Let's just get you to the Doc."

He waves his hand for me to follow him and at first I was hesitant but he's kinda hot so if I die, wherever im going, at least I die looking at someone so gorgeous. His hair was long and silky. It was dark brown with the occasional curl in it. He was like six foot, which for me that's hella tall considering im a whole ass foot shorter than he is.

I follow him out of the only doors in the room and we head down a hallway with lots and lots of amazing paintings and we turn down another hallway where there's the occasional group of people talking who stop to stare at me as we pass them. Kane opens up a door to another room. To my surprise, the room was just like the doctor's office back home. Sure enough, there was a doctor sitting at the desk in the far left corner doing what looked like paperwork.

"Hey Doc," Alex says has he walks up and gives her a big hug. Alex turns to face me. "This is my sister, Asa. She's my twin and we are also the only medics at the institute. We'll make you good as new in no time." He and Asa sit down and he explained to her that they found me passed out in the park miles from where I live, which makes no sense because I swear I was asleep in my bed. He explained to her that they had to drug me because I was getting feisty with him and Kane.

Asa stands up and grabs a syringe of this blue liquid. "Alright, take a seat over here for me," she says pointing to a bed on the opposite side of the desk. "Alex can you get me some crackers for the newbie? She needs to put something in her stomach." Alex nods and walks out of the room and Asa takes to cap off the syringe. "This might hurt a bit." She quickly jabs it into my neck and I instantly feel so much better. I feel stronger than before and I have the appitite of a growing teenager on steroids.

Alex returns ten minutes later with crackers and what looks to be some kind of hot tea. With me being so hungry I snatched them out of his hands and hate all fifteen of the peanut butter filled crackers and I drank all of the mystery tea, every last drop.

Asa walks back over to Alex and whispers something I couldn't understand and then he comes over to me. "Let me show you your room. You need to get some good sleep before we explain everything to you. You may experience some weird images in you sleep but that's the serum Asa gave you.

Kane helps me off the bed and he and Alex walk me three hallways down and then we took another two lefts before we made it to a series of doors laid out like a hotel. Each door had a name on it and a three digit number. We stopped at room 222 with the words "Guardian" and "Beginner" in the center of the door. Then just under that was my name. Kane unlocked the door and pushed it open. "This is your room. it's where you'll be staying. The bathroom is at the end of the hall and there's a change of clothes in the closet. They should fit you if not Asa can help you find something to wear. If you need anything there's a landline phone and all the names and numbers for everyone in the institute on the wall above it. If you need anything call either me, Alex or Asa and we'll be here." Kane and Alex walk away and leave me standing in my now new room.

I lock the door behind me and I head to the bedroom. There's a massive bed and TV with a dresser in the left corner and a mini fridge in the right one. I open the closet door and there's a mass amount of dresses in pretty much all black and a few pairs of jeans and some t-shirts. On the floor there were 3 pairs of shoes. A pair of sneakers, a pair of sandals and a pair of black knee high boots the zipped up the on the inside leg. I choose an oversized shirt and a pair of shorts the was laying on the bed and lay down. The bed is like laying on a cloud and the pillows are so fluffed that I immediately melted in the silky sheets.

As I began to fall asleep, my neck starts to tingle where I was given the shot of mysterious blue liquid and I don't remember falling asleep after.
