My life wasnt always the darkness or the streets, I remember a time where I was living in a small house with a roof over my head. But that was decades ago, I dont even know if that same little girl with a bright smile. With eyes that went wide whenever her father was playing the piano because she wanted to sing along. I dont think that girl even exists anymore, because that girl should be looking back at me in the mirror. But all I see instead is someone with anger and hatred in their eyes. I sighed as I brought my black choppy hair back into a ponytail and finally turned away from the mirror. The mere sight of the person in the mirror disgusted me, because all I thought back to was the young girl that she likely killed.... That I killed.

Sighing I grabbed my beanie from the sink side and pushed the door to the bathroom open being meet with the sound of the street coming in from the open window. I looked over at the small rectangular window with its green glass making me smile as feet passed by. I chuckled a bit as I walked over to the cupboards and pulled out a box of fruit loops. I opened the tattered box and cursed as I realized that the bag was empty I threw my head back looking at the ceiling. I took a deep breath and slowly started to count to three and once I did I yelled out "SIMON!" after a moment of the yell I heard a thud and then grumblings followed by a door opening. I moved to look at the door and my eyes widened at seeing Simon, he was rubbing his eyes as he than went to put on his glasses, but his curly hair was still in the way. But that wasnt the thing that I was mainly looking at, because quickly after looking at his face I trailed down to his chest seeing that he was indeed shirtless. Simon was lean, however he had muscles, and his slight abs did prove it but the thing that was worse was that simon was- I quickly brought my head up and threw the box at Simon before turning around. "Simon get some fucking cloths on please! An replace my fruit loops next time you asshole" I was looking away from him but that didnt stop the heat at the back of my neck and at my ears. I gasped as I felt hands wrap around me and heard a soft hum as simon said "Im sorry Silver Bul-" I brought my elbow back into Simons gut making him groan as I pulled away sighing. "Windows open dumbass, now get dressed Im going to head out ok?" Simon sighed as he turned around heading to his room with a dismissive wave of his hand "yeah yeah, just be safe out there alright?" He stopped at his door and turned back to me his brown eyes meeting mine "be safe El, Im serious I would be literally pissed if you died alright?" I nodded as I grabbed my sack bag from the coat rack and said "I know, dont get hurt, no talking to noone, and dont get caught I know the drill boss... dont worry." I watched his eyes narrow to a glare as I said boss but I didnt care as I turned and opened the door and headed out into the main world ready to get todays work done.

Walking down the hallway with some doors on either side I just focused on the stairwell that was infront of me. The hallway itself was dark with a weird yellow green lighting, but it was the home, and up that stairwell was the unfamiliar above. Once passed the door of the stairwell and into the main building I tried to blink my eyes into focus, the lights where so much brighter than what I was used to below. I looked around the empty lobby before heading out of the building entirely, and into the busy city streets. But from there things started to blur, as they always did because the focus was on doing the task that was on hand. Before I knew it I was in the store passing down the isles one by one carefully slipping stuff into my bag that we needed. A box of cereal and a couple of mac and cheese boxes, I continued to move down the isles one by one. I stopped once I got to the next isle as there stood a security guard "Listen girlie, we need you to drop the bag make it easy for us ok?" I cursed under my breathe as I looked around and shook my head this was not what I had planned.

I sighed as I brought my hands up slowly laughing gently the smile on my face still "listen buddies, I think this is a big misunderstanding." I scanned over all of them, analyzing them and the best way to tackle the situation. An all that came to mine was what I always did, I smirked as I put my hands up slowly before tapping my foot starting to set the vibrations in my body. Until finally I was speeding down the aisle towards the guards hearing a muffle of their yelling. I pushed their bodys that were still as I passed by making sure to buy myself more time. I gasped however as I felt someone grab my arm stopping me and my momentum bringing me back to real time. I looked at who grabbed me and I scoffed as I saw the familiar suited male. I cursed under my breath as I tried to hide my face from the hero none other than Firebird. I pushed him off and quickly tried to get my legs going and I was out of the store but the issue was during the running process. I flinched as I felt myself run threw a sudden patch of his fire, I tried to push through the pain searing through my legs as I tried to find an alley. Finally seeing the alley I ran into it and delt myself come to a slow as I leaned against the building as the pain in my legs seemed to hit me like a truck as I stopped. Looking down at my legs I gagged at the mere sight of the singed pants leading to read swollen and some skin bubbled or seared. "F-Fuck" I muttered taking deep breaths, trying to ignore the pain with every bit of fail.

"I didnt want to hurt you" a male voice said as footsteps approached me making me jolt back in fear regardless of the pain shooting up my legs. My eyes gazed around the alley, seeing there was a fire escape up the the roofs, but other than that there wasnt much to run from. "Now come on Silver Bullet, lets make this easy just hand youself over." Rolling my eyes and looking at Firebird I raised my hands saying "Well you see today was an off day for me, it was just a little supply one, so really I cant have you beat me this easily now-" I smirked as I had gotten my feet up to speed and within a moment I was beside him as I whispered in his ear "can I?" I watched as his head started to slowly turn, but I had the upper hand as I quickly started hitting him down. I pretended to run out the alley main way but quickly spinned my direction heading to the fire escape. While running up the escape it started to shake and looking down I saw Firebird slowly trying to hit me with some balls of fire while on the escape. When I got to the top of the building I looked around and quickly just started off knowing that if I ran know he wouldnt be able to see me. I jumped on buildings running as quick as I could but with each step I felt like my legs were going to fall off at any moment. I kept going seeing all the colors of the world start to blur together until it stopped, but not because I got to my location. I felt as my legs started to give out and than I crumbled to the ground almost like a card tower, I gasped in pain as everything started to hit me at once.

It felt like someone was taking knives up and down my legs, which was the normal result from using my speed, but the pains of the burns seemed to just intensify everything. I looked around noticing that I was nowhere near main base, but there was the lab that was close by since the tunnels where easy to traverse through. I groaned as I tried to manuever my legs but, it felt like the best I could do at that moment was crawl. "G-god when I see that little bird twerp again, im going to lock them up like a canary and make them feel pain like this," I hissed under my breath as I continued to drag myself for what seemed ages until I finally found a sewer grate. I frowned noticing this was one with no ladder, I sighed bringing the grate over my head and than jumped and the grate was stuck in place. My eyes closed as I braced myself for impact, which was my legs hitting the ground, which on any normal day would be fine, but today I crumbled a overbaked cookie. I whined at the pain that went through my legs, I gasped however and bit the inside of my cheek as I tried to stand up.

Once Standing, I started walking down the tunnels for god knows how long. But I knew that with each step the inside of my cheek would get more chewed up as that was the only thing keeping me from crying out. I looked ahead trying to put all the blurred colors together hoping that I was close to the lab. I knew I had to be as the electrical buzzing was loud along with screams and a slight sound of metal cogs. I coughed as I started to feel my self start to loose my stability, I felt thee electricity build up in my ears, but behind it I heard a muffled voice. I tried to look around, but all the colors continued to mix, and I felt my body sway, but before I fell I felt someone hold me as the world went back and my brain filled with the buzzing.

"AHHHHHHHH"

"Shhhhhhh Now, Now what did I tell you? That if you screamed you would just be making things harder on yourself." I sighed aspicking up the syringe that glowed a nice silver, however it also had a blue sheen. I looked over at the figure on the table a hum leaving my mouth as I walked closer. I smirked as I tapped the syringe a few times and looked down at the poor soul on the table. "Now, your going to be good right and take this with no fight right?" I stared at the person fear filling there eyes as we held gazes. I sighed sticking out my hand once the they tried to reach both hands up which seemed to have gotten out of the restraints. "This is a pity indeed" I muttered as I looked down at the figure and than plunged the Syringe right above his heart. I smiled as I started to push it down, watching as the liquid left the syringe and as his veins started to puff up. I watched his veins puff and seem to turn blue, and as I poked them I hummed as they were hard, as if it was metal.

"It was tragic that you couldnt be calm for me Test Subject 34, or should I say Daniel Hurst, tragic end it seems." I started to clean up the syringe along with other tools I had taken out, I was cleaning the scissors when a large beep sounded. "Movement in Tunnel 4" I looked up at the announcement and sighed as I dropped the scissors and went to the screens. "Bring up Tunnel 2 Cams and Entrance Cams." I looked at the Screens as the images popped up and breathed out some relief, until something seemed to appear on the Tunnel 2 Cams. I watched as the familiar form appeared, however something was wrong, "El" I muttered as I turned from the screens. El was the silver bullet, she had great speed and should be fine. However she was not only limping, but practically dragging her body by holding up against the wall.

"Open door" I said as I approached the entrance to the lab, an the cogs started turning, I gasped as the door opened and there was El starting to sway. "El!" I ran to her and quickly caught her body making sure she didnt hit the ground. I looked down at her and noticed that her face was scrunched in pain and there was blood dripping from her mouth. I looked down her body, hoping that there was no stab wounds like last time. I gagged however, as the stab wound may have been better than this, "Oh my god El." I peeled my eyes away from her legs that were burned, and than quickly but gently placed my arms under her to carry her.

I got into the lab and quickly shoved off the deceased person my heart starting to race quickly and my hands starting to shake. "I-I dont know what to do, o-oh fuck I... I dont know" Everything around me seemed to blur as I couldnt even catch a breath. But I forced my body to move to my desk and tried to just catch my breath. I couldnt allow something to happen to her, I needed to help her somehow. I felt my body move foreward just grabbing materials as if my body knew how to save her. I tried to do something to focus 'Now stop that, unless you want her to die do you understand?' I could feel my body continue to move as my mind continued to wander. "W-Who are you?" I tried to move my body, trying to find the source of the voice but my body wouldnt react, than the voice laughed. 'Don't worry, I'm just the person that's going to save her ok? Now dont worry she will be even stronger now.' I watched as my hand just reached out with the syringe and than placed the needle at El's throat. "Stop! No! W-We know the results of thi-" I gasped as the needle was placed and slowly the liquid left the syringe. Once the liquid was out of the syringe I felt myself move my hand and I frowned as I quickly pulled my hand back dropping the syringe. I ignored the shatter and stared at El who just started to slowly start moving, but quickly the movement turned horrible and into convulsing.

"Oh my god no, no no god no." I reached down and tried to put my arms on hers to make sure that she wouldn't end up injuring herself.

"Its ok El, its ok dont worry."

I knew that I would be staying by her side, making sure that she would be ok throughout the hell that I had forced onto her.
