Eidolon-Reminisce of the Past #3

Public
My eyes fluttered as the darkness of the time behind me filled with blinding light. Drowsy and weak, I opened my eyes, slowly taking in my surroundings as I kept closing my eyes and drifting back to sleep. As I attempted to move my arms and legs, I failed and realized something was surrounding my wrists and ankles. Opening my eyes, I looked down upon my body, slightly covered by a gown. Laying down upon a cold table as I looked back up to the blinding light over me.

Shutting my eyes in pain, I quickly moved my head around and looked around the metal room. Their were marks upon the walls and the floor, filled with soot. Three walls surrounded me as I could see past my feet, a bigger room in nearly the same manner. Upon the soot covered ground I could see a red light flashing across it over and over and my ears began to ring as a siren filled them. Several footsteps clattered against the floor as I heard them rushing closer to me.

Moving into my vision past the concealed walls, five men and women in armor grasped their guns and aimed them towards me. I starred upon them in confusion as an image filled my mind. Faintly it sparked over and over as I saw a blinding light before me. The image disappeared as an older man in lab attire approached from behind the wall. He had grey hair and a mustache while wearing square glasses.

His arms behind his back as he grinned, looking upon me while walking closer and closer. Stopping next to my head kneeled down as I turned my head to him. Starring at him with so much confusion, he put upon a big smile as he motioned his right hand to the others, allowing them to put their weapons down. I tried to speak, but was so lost and confused I could not even think of what to say. Quickly he grasped a clipboard by my head with a pen and began to write.

Looking at me the entire time he finally spoke to me.

"Can you tell me your name?"

My eyebrows arose as I attempted to tell him. Stopping, I thought for a long moment and realized I had no answer to that. The confused look upon my face told him everything as he wrote something down.

"What is the earliest memory you have?"

I did not understand as I tried to think long and hard about anything before hand.

"Do you know who you are?"

I nodded to him as I felt that was the only thing I knew. However, the truth became ever so evident as I tried to think upon anything from before waking up.

"I.... am.... Esper?"

He smiled a bit as he tapped his pen at my nose jestingly.

"No no, that is what you Are not Who you are. How old are you?"

I thought long and hard about that for a moment, and said it aloud.

"Eight?"

He nodded as he began to write something down again.

"Good good, It seems you have some idea of who and what you are."

"Mummy."

His eyes widened for a moment as he looked at me closer.

"Who is your mother?"

"I...."

Thinking about it with all that I could, nearly gave me a headache. Their was nothing, no one to even picture. Tears formed in my eyes as I thought of the blinding light and answered him.

"I do not know!"

As I began to cry aloud, the guardsmen seemed unarmed by it. I kept crying as he continued to write. Turning to something behind me I felt myself drifting again. He stood up and walked away as someone in a black armored suit walked from behind the corner. He spoke from behind his helmet looking to the older man.

"Well?"

The older man glanced back towards me as he glaced to his notes.

"No recollection of her past what so ever."

"How can you be so sure?"

The older man looked up to the man in armor with a grin as I closed my eyes feeling tired and upset.

"We do not forget our mothers willingly."

Drifting off back to sleep, I felt so lost and misplaced. Opening my eyes again, I was laying upon the floor. Tired, I kept laying, realizing I was able to move my limbs again. As I reached my left arm out, it touched what felt like glass. Looking down, I realized I had been completely stripped.

Upon my wrists and ankles were glowing shackles. Covering myself, I pushed myself up to my bottom and began to move backwards, only to hit a solid metal wall. The glass before me was thick and their was very little room to move. Placing my arms around my legs I looked further into the small room I was being kept. In the right corner I could see the area I was being held before.

Taking a long look around, I realized it was a laboratory. To my left was a control station with a chair. Glass windows lined down the entire left wall. Near the door just across from me was a standing container of water bubbling. I could not see past the area which held me before to the right but it seemed to lead down a longer path.

The door several feet across from me slid open as I saw the older man again, walking into the room with a female assistant. In his hands was the clipboard as they quickly approached me. Noticing I was looking right at him, he glared back to his assistant and quickly slapped her across the face.

"I Told you to shade the glass."

She held her hand to her cheek in pain as she kneeled down, bowing before him.

"I apologize master."

He sighed as he looked back over at me. Quickly me moved his clipboard to his left hand as he used his right to touch something next to my container. The darkened and all I could see was a reflection of myself. Feeling lonely, I began to tear up a bit until several lights began to charge from the sides of the container.

"What... What is that?!"

No answer came from behind the glass as sparks began to erupt from the lights. Trying to cover myself from harm, I failed as several bolts electricity shocked into me at a constant rate. Screaming in horrific pain, I tried to smack my hands against the glass, getting shocked again and again for a very long time. When it finally stopped, I could no longer move. Every muscle in my body hurt even more then it did before.

Trying to cry, I could not as I passed out from the pain. Awakening again, I was upon an operating table as glanced to my side to see the old man next to me as he grasped my hair and pushed my face to my right shoulder. My limbs strapped down again as I cringed in pain, feeling something penetrate my spine at my neck.

"Ahhhhh AhhhhHhhaaaa! PLEASE STOP!! PLEASE!"

"Quiet. Be a good girl and the pain will not last long."

I screamed, I could not help it as he moved the item over and over until I passed out again. Waking up back in the container, I sat back up and grasped my legs with my arms. Burying my head into my legs as I cried believing no end of such torment and hell was in sight. Tapping at the glass made my ears twitch as I looked up to see only my reflection again. Tapping again as I let my legs go. Cautiously I placed my hand to the glass.

I heard the click of something at the side of the container and the glass reverted to be seen through. The laboratory was very dark as a young man sat down outside the container. His blond hair glimmered in the small lighting from across the room as he looked upon me. Smiling at me he waved a bit. I waved back and smiled a little bit, as it gave me a little hope.

"Hi their little girl. I'm Cid."

He spoke aloud, seemingly comforting towards me.

"I know you have probably been through a lot these past few weeks. I can not stand what they have been doing to you."

"Weeks?"

"Yeah, they have been keeping you on life support."

I had not realized how much time had passed. All things became unknown to me as the concept of time was lost. Cid spoke again as he saw the worry in my eyes.

"Father is not very delicate. But, if everything goes well, you should be freed soon."

"Why am I here?"

My eyes filled with tears as I asked him that question. He seemed lost by it as he moved his head a bit.

"Why am I here?! Why are they doing this to me?! I am just a little girl! Please! I want out! I want out!!!"

I banged my hands against the container over and over as Cid backed away alarmed. He seemed afraid of me as he kept his eyes trained upon me.

"Why do you look at me like that? Why are you afraid!?"

He did not answer as the door behind him slid open. Glancing back, he looked to the old man from before. The old man glared upon Cid as Cid stood firmly before him.

"I Told you not to bother Subject Zero."

"And I told You, you can not treat her like a damned animal!"

"I am doing what is necessary to learn of capabilities. Their is nothing wrong with that. Get out of my laboratory Boy!"

"She is a Hyur! Not a laboratory experiment!"

"She is a Slave. She has no rights in the Empire until she is old enough to be offered them. Trust me when I say boy, she is better here then in the brothels."

Out of anger the old man grasped Cids neck and pushed him to the container.

"Go ahead boy. Release her. Look around you! She nearly destroyed the entire lab how many times?"

"You pushed her to that!"

"I did what I had to testing her. You want her out? Go ahead."

Cid hesitated as his right hand levitated over the switchboard next to the container. The old man released Cids neck as he turned around walking away.

"That is what I thought. All bark, no bite just like the pup you are."

As he punched his hand into the switchboard, the container opened before me. The old man looked back at Cid in shock. The boy turned to the old man with a grin upon his face.

"I am not afraid of her father. Not like you are."

The old man spat upon the floor as he looked to his son.

"Very well boy. You want to take care of your little monster? Go ahead. Feed her, cloth her, teach her. Whatever you want. The Emperor wants her alive. If she dies under your care, I will make sure you are personally hung."

Cid glared to his father as he kneeled down to me and offered his hand for help.

"It is okay, I will not hurt you."

Cautiously, I grasped it and smiled to him as he helped me up and lead me from the lab.
