“Troubling Gifts”



**~A Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Waste~**



**~Chapter Twenty-one: Missing



A light switch blares out beneath the dim underground hallway, Riley turns around to see the group behind him. To a point he was glad the organization was getting destroyed yet something in him felt that once he gets out of here, where will he go? His father belongs to this organization and his family had moved away to the islands. He wouldn’t know what to do or where to go. But he didn’t need to think about that now, he had people depending on him for their safety.



“Riley are you going to be ok?” A young woman with blond locks down her shoulders and piercing green eyes asks him.



“Yeah, just fine. Don’t worry, the other soldiers have no idea where we at now. We’re safe. Also there’s a room down the end of this hallway. Dr. Natalie you can do your research and find an answer to what’s wrong with the guys here.” Riley states, his soft chocolate eyes gazing at them.



A.J. nods his head and stares above at the small opening of the room where they were a few minutes before. “Riley, why are you helping us? I mean you could be leading us to our death and we’re stupid enough to trust you.” He states, bit of anger in his voice.



“I found out about true meaning of this company. I want out just like you do. We’re both in the same boat and I don’t wanna be involved with this company’s plot.” Riley says quietly gazes at everyone’s faces and shuffles Paige’s weight in his arms. “Besides don’t you wanna get out here!”



Nick grumbles and Kevin holds onto Brian gently.



“Well lets go, I would like to see my wife as soon as possible.” Kevin states, his bright green eyes gleaming from the bright white light bulb in the narrow hallway.



Riley grins, his light chocolate complexion glittering in light sweat. “Come on it’s this way.”



Alison sighs and yawns, leaning her head on Nick’s arm. Her brown straight hair topples down her shoulders and her brown eyes clouded with drowsiness. Nick smiles and pats Alison’s head gently. Rose giggles and grabs Nick’s left hand and pulls him towards Riley and the others.



Rose’s blue eyes glitter with mischievous, “You know once we get out of here, I’m thinking if you need any help backstage or looking for some help with putting on costumes, I’ll gladly help.” Her smile widens at Nick’s surprise expression.



Nick smiles, “I wouldn’t mind, call me when you turn eighteen.”



A.J. playfully pushes Summer, a mischievous grin on his tan complexion.



Summer laughs and runs to the open doorway Riley enters. Howie and Ana look around the hallway as Jamelet and Kimberly reach the open doorway.



Dr. Natalie reaches the room and runs over to an open lap top. “I can find it, but it’ll take some time. How long do we have till we have to run out of here.” Her dark straight long brown lies gently pass her shoulders and her light tan complexion glitters in the light. She clicks on the lap top and begins uploading some information. Sliding a disk in the cd drive, she waits for the valid info to update. “It’s gonna be about an half and hour till the data I need can be provided. The doctor from what I heard found a solution to the “gifts” he gave these kids. There’s a medication that help them control their powers and be socially safe to live with everyone else. But of course, knowing what Dr. Sanchez could have done with medicine is another story.”



Jamelet sighs and runs her fingers through her dark brown locks. “Wait, the medication! I saw a couple of small colored glass tubes marked with the label ‘Positive Results’ on it. There was different liquids that all were marked with a code- Like one tube filled with red liquid has a label of ‘Rizado Effect.” Nick I think that one is yours.”



Kevin interrupts, “Whoa, wait where did you see the tubes at?” He asks quietly sitting and examining the small room. There was a forest green carpet covering the entire small room and two small curved glass windows on the side of the room are dressed in royal blue curtains tied to the side, hanging on the side of the wall besides the window. The only furniture in the room was a couple of fold out metal chairs, a thick big mahagony table with a lap top on it and small refrigerator in the corner of the room. One rickety wooden shelf aligned the left wall with dust covered thick textbooks of various subjects on it.



Jamelet grimaces, “Back in the room. I didn’t realize the significance of it until now. I’m so sorry, I didn’t know.”



A.J. growls and rushes over to the closed door, “Well Jamelet why don’t you be a sweet heart and get it for us?” He states angrily, he lowers his brown eyes to her and points to the door, “Well go, the longer you take, the longer we’ll be here.”



Jamelet stands up and scoffs, “Excuse me? Why should I risk my neck to save your scrawny cocky self? I just saw my father die and here you are screaming at me about saving you! Tell me why should I bother?” She states, rolling her eyes and clutching her fists to the side.



Summer stands in the middle of the two angry Latin people and raises her arms in the air, “Chill out both of you! We can’t be fighting against one other, remember we are all in this together!”



“I’m sorry, you’re right, what the hell am I thinking?” A.J. states eyeing the Jamelet.



Jamelet whispers, “Yeah, I’m sorry. I’ll get the medicine. It should have the cure.”



Suddenly Dr. Natalie shouts, “I found it! I found it! Thanks you, thank you little computer! Oh man this is great, you guys listen to this.” The young doctor states, reading the info on the computer screen excitedly.

Gasps were heard in the room, “Oh man this is it! There’s a cure for such a thing. Oh thank God!” Dr. Natalie states, breaking into a smile. Cheers were heard in the room as the guys give each other a hug and a slaps a high five to one another. Kimberly forces a smile and stares at the floor sadly. She walks over the corner of the room and slides down the wall, pulling her legs to her chest. Her dark brown eyes with amber rings glitter with tears in it.



Rose walks over to her and sadly sits next to her on the floor. “I feel the same way. I mean they found an answer for the guys, but there isn’t something out there to help us. I wanna be happy for them but I can’t. It’s not fair. We’re failures, that’s all we are to the company.” She whispers, her blue eyes wet with tears. Rose and Kimberly sat and watch as the guys and Dr. Natalie laugh with joy over what was found.



Alison sighs and moving away from Brian, she walks over to where Rose and Kimberly are. “Can I ask you guys something?” She asks Rose and Kimberly. The girls nod their head and wait for Alison’s question. “Well why isn’t there a cure for us? Why did the company find a cure for the Boys but forgot about us? Shouldn’t they have found one for us too?” She states sadly, a lone tear trailing down her white complexion. Her yellow thin strapped shirt was colored with her sad tears as she rubs her hands on her dark blue denim. Her medium dark straight brown hair is tied in a bun as she fiddled with it.



Ana answers her question suddenly appearing in front of the girls. “Ali, there was never a cure for us. Don’t you see? The company only wanted what was successful and bring them profit and we’re not the ones. We’re the doom ones. Don’t be sad, I’ve known it all along. Don’t be surprised that this happened. I know I’m not.” Ana states, her voice stiff as if she was fighting to remain strong for the other girls. Her bluish green eyes held unshed tears and her blond braided hair lies gently on her shoulders.



“That can’t be true! It just can’t be!” Alison cries out.



“The truth hurts.” Ana whispers bluntly as she eyes the guys, Riley, the doctor and Jamelet who were all eagerly discussing how to get the medication in their hands.



“I don’t wanna help them any more.” Paige whispers in agony as she lies on her back in critical pain.



‘Why not?” Rose asks, passing her hands over her flowered peasant shirt and jean skirt.



“There’s no help for us. I’m better off here. I can get the help I need.” Paige whispers, her blue grey eyes staring numbly at the white ceiling. She runs her fingers over her black tank top with a blue dragon on it and dark blue denim. Her blond hair topples over her shoulders, the orange tips glittering in the light.



“Can you move?” Ana asks, bending down eyeing Paige in concern.



Paige shakes her head, “No! I can’t feel my back. It hurts! I can’t move!” She cries out.



Ana and Rose gently try to get Paige to sit up as Alison walks to the door and opens it to see the dimly lit hallway they were walking in. She sees something glittering and realizes it’s her silver bracelet. She didn’t realize it had fallen off, but then again with everything that happens she was surprise to have found it. She steps out the room and quickly reaches her bracelet. She picks it and smiles, clasping the jewelry on her wrist. Then suddenly she feels someone grabs her from behind and a gloved hand covers her mouth. Alison struggles against the strong hold but failed. The gloved hand has a napkin with a drug in it, she inhales the intoxicating smell and feels herself get weak. She passes out in the strangers hand and is carried away.

~*~



A.J. and Nick laugh and suddenly Brian realizes someone is missing. “Hey you guys, where’s Alison?” He states gazing around the room.



Ana scoffs, “Oh like you care?”



Brian feels the hatred the girls felt and he understood. He knew they felt upset and hurt all at the same time. He knew they should be happy but couldn’t because they themselves are still living in the nightmare. “God, I’m sorry. I knew this looks bad for you, but Dr. Natalie is searching for a way to heal your gifts as well. She has an idea, don’t give up!”



Paige grumbles in pain and Rose eyes around the room. “Hey has anyone seen Ali?”



“I think I saw her at the door, I’m not sure it she went out. Said she saw her bracelet and went to get it. She should be back be now.” Howie states, opening the door.



Brian knew something went terribly wrong. “You guys!” He states, clutching his chest, his heart racing, “Something’s up. I can feel it.”



Nick stands next to Brian with concern, “You ok though?”



Brian nods and points, “Do you see her?” Howie sticks his head out the doorway and shakes his head.



“Oh no! She’s got caught!” Jamelet states pushing Howie out the way. Summer peeks out the door alongside her.



A.J. closes his eyes and screams out, “They have her! I saw it just now. I saw a vision. She’s caught! They got her!”



Nick gulps, ‘Well that’s great, just nice, exactly what we needed.” He states angrily.



“Well we gotta find Ali now!” Ana states, cold wisps appearing after each word, “Or I’ll be misbehaving.” She grins, the cold mist rising from her hands and arms. The cold chill ran in the room as she raises her hands in the air.



Howie gives Riley a terrified look, “She’s serious you guys. Just send one small group and the rest stay here.”



Riley loads up his pistol and grabs a couple of rifles. “Ok, let’s go then.” And then leaves the room followed behind by Howie, A.J., Brian, Nick and Kevin. The battle just begins and it won’t get any easier.
