Chapter five

Amy woke up the sound of a moving car

'''Although the sedatives were still wearing off, Amy could tell that she was in some sort of  armored car, with two human guards at the back. They were both holding guns and it looked like they knew how to use them. Despite their dangerous look, the two men’s eyes were glazed. '''

Strange, Amy thought.

Although there was a door at the back, Amy knew she could never get past the two guards, not to mention that fact that her arms were handcuffed.

'''Suddenly the car slowed down and the two guards suddenly sprang to life. They grabbed Amy and gruffly dragged her out of the car. Amy knew she was still in the Forbidden City's the minute she stepped out from the car. From the obvious amount of pollution, to the dulled color, it what clear where Amy was. '''

'''Amy saw she was at some sort of campus. Large white buildings were scattered across a pleasant green field, all the buildings were connected by white pathways. This bright open place was nothing like the dark Neverseen back at the lost cities. '''

'''The men dragged her over to a smaller building. Along the way they passed several people dressed all in white. None of them paid them any attention, as if seeing a twelve year old get dragged away by two armed men was something that happened everyday.'''

When they pushed her inside, Amy was greeted by more guards who in turn pushed her into a spotless white room.

Suddenly in an overhead speaker said,” Welcom to your new home.”



'''For the fifth time that week, Amy was escorted down the hallway. Everytime the same two guards escorted her. Unlike the first guards Amy got, these ones were sentient. Amy had taken to nicknaming everyone who’s eye’s weren't glazed. So Gertrude was the woman who brought her food, and Billy and Bob were her escorts.'''

'''As she walked down the hallway, Amy heard snippets of conversations from the people who stared. “She’s…… Immune…Brainwashing.” “Amy…...Human.”'''

“Surgery…..lots…..Elvin potential.”

'''Amy frowned, she was used to the normal conversations, but she had never heard about elvin potential. '''

Finally Amy reached her destination, a large white door.

'''“So long Billy and Bob!” Amy said, snidely waving goodbye. The two men groaned, clearly tired of the sarcastic nicknames. Amy smiled, if she couldn’t literally hurt the Neverseen, she might as well annoy the crap out of them. '''

'''Amy walked into the room, which looked kinda like a dentist's office, except there was a headpiece with wires and suction caps dangling over the bed instead of a light. Sitting right next to the bed was a young woman who Amy liked to call Joe. '''

“Hya Joe.” Amy said,”You ready for my next session?”

Joe groaned,” For the last time, my name is Nari, not Joe.”

Amy had annoyed Nari so much with her nicknames that Nari had told Amy her real name, probably breaking several Neverseen rules in the process.

'''Amy sat down on the bed, trying to angle herself in the most comfortable way. The white baggy jumpsuit that they forced Amy to wear was not improving things. Nor was the itchy Neverseen symbol patch on her arm.'''

“Now no more mind games.” Nori instructed.

“Nope.” 

'''The whole reason why Amy was constantly going to the place Amy called the Probing room was Amy’s mind games. When Amy first got there she knew they were going to probe her and brainwash her. Knowing she didn’t really know anything the Neverseen didn’t know, Amy dedicated herself to trying to retain her memories after being brainwashed. So she assigned different common place words to different types of memories. Then she spent all her time trying to imbed that in her mind. Hi, ment all her memories with Sophie, The, meant all her memories of the lost cities. Many other words also triggered different types of memories. Normally it only took a few memories to bring all her memories back, but one time she spent an entire day in complete ignorance before she got all her memories back.'''

Amy loved how much it annoyed the Neverseen, but she knew she could only last a bit longer.

Suddenly Nori brought down the head piece and attached it to Amy.

'''“Now keep your mind clear.” Nori instructed. '''

Right before the world went dark, Amy smirked and said,” You wish.”



'''Amy sat alone in her room. It was completely empty, and white. There was literally nothing to do. Normally after the Neverseen tried to brainwash her she would be unconscious for a few hours, making the day’s short, but today no one came for her.'''

'''There were no chairs to sit on, not even a bed, so Amy sat on the cold hard floor. Normally she was running through all her trigger words but today she was just to distracted, she wanted to know what was going on.'''

'''Suddenly the door opened. Instead of the usual guards it was just a tall blond haired woman with sharp eyes and a pointy face. Very elvin.'''

“Amy Foster, please come with me.” the woman said, her sharp voice cutting through the air.

“Who are you?” Amy asked as she got up.

“I go by many names but you may call me Erin.”

The Erin grabbed Amy’s hand without warning and dragged Amy down the hallway.

“Where are you taking me?” Amy asked, they weren’t taking the normal route.

“To where you will reach your full potential.” Amy didn’t like the sound of that.

'''Erin took her to a small room with a bed in it. Unlike the one Amy would normally get in before being brainwashed, this one was comfortable and soft. The first one Amy had laid in for months. '''

“Just wait here and we will come with the sedatives.” Erin instructed.

'''“Sedatives?” Amy asked. She’d had some bad experiences with sedatives.'''

'''Erin left the room and locked the door. Amy noticed. She couldn’t leave, she was still stuck her.'''

'''Suddenly two men walked with an anesthesia mask in hand, they put it on her as she struggled. Her lunges began to be filled with gasses that didn’t feel right. Amy felt like she was suffocating.'''

“Breath, just breath.” one of the men instructed.

Amy relaxed as she began taking deep breaths, and slowly fell asleep.



'''Amy sat in another white room, this one with a chair. Amy examined herself. She didn’t know what they had done to her because they certainly didn’t brainwash her. She did notice that she had a new patch next to her Neverseen one, but she didn’t know what it was since her eyes were blurry. She felt no different except she felt smarter, sharper somehow. Amy didn’t know what it meant.'''

'''Suddenly Erin walked into the room with a clipboard. Taking a chair opposite Amy, Erin plastered a fake smile on her face.'''

“Hello Amy, are you feeling alright?”

“As good as feels to know that the Neverseen was doing something to my body.” Amy grumbled.

'''“Ah well you see we had no other choice. The only other option was to dispose of you, and that would be a waste of potential.”'''

“So what are you doing with me now?” Amy asked.

“Well, we were having a bit of trouble with you,” Erin said, Amy grinned at that comment, knowing how much it must have annoyed everyone,”So we decided to speed up your process with a few adjustments.” 

'''What process? Was there supposed to be more after they brainwashed her?'''

“You will be put in our special program with the other kids,” Erin continued.

'''Other kids? There were other people like Amy who had been captured by the Neverseen?'''

'''“And I know you know things, but try not to tell anyone. If not the proper precautions will be in place, and if you knew what those were you would probably want to keep quiet.”'''

'''Amy was unsettled by what Erin said. It seemed like for every answer she got, several more questions popped up.'''

'''Erin left the room right as two guards came in. They escorted her out of the building, and it was the first bit of fresh air Amy had gotten in days. As Amy walked in the sunlight, she could see a bit clearer, and then she realized what her new patch was. She had seen it while doing research in the lost cities.'''

'''A Lodestar. '''
