Feral Heart

(I'm sorry for the late reply, I have been very busy lately)
 
Zack took hold of Karliah and helped her up to her feet. He made sure she was steady.
 Kristen started digging through the large back. "Zack?"
 Zack looked toward his sister, but kept his hands out just in case if Karliah collasped.
 Kristen smiled as she pulled out different objects that were in the bag. "First aid, food, water....we've got a lot in here," she mumbled as she pulled out each thing. "There is even extra pairs of clothes," she stated and pulled each out pile by pile. It seemed as if there were a set for everyone.
 "Good job Kristen," Zack stated, a smile forming on his face. He looked back at Karliah. "You should lie down."
 

 Zack glared at Alice, a very low growl rolling out before he could stop it. "look I know we are all going through a lot right now, but that doesn't mean you have to take it out on me. I care about the well being of all of you....and of course I realize that....well we are not in the best condition right now, but at the moment there is absolutely nothing I can do about it," he mumbled and pulled Kristen over to the corner of the room. He sat her down and knelled in front of her. "Are you okay?"
 Kristen whipped her tears from her face and looked up at her brother. She nodded and pulled her knees up to her chest.
 "It's going to be okay...I promise. I will protect you no matter what," Zack stated and pushed a piece of her hair behind her ear. "Just hang on a little while longer," he mumbled and stood back up. He leaned against the wall, next to Kristen, and looked over at Karliah's weeping form. He sighed and looked down.

(It's okay =))


 
 Zack kept his eyes shut as he listened to Pam talk into her walkie talkie. He took a deep breath and looked up at her. "Is that all you wanted from me? To tease me about my parents. You're all sick," he mumbled and looked down. He had to make sure that there was no way that these people found out about his parents.
 "Zack, I wouldn't of done that if I didn't have to. I had to make sure you can control your anger before I just let you run around the school," she mumbled and scribbled something down on her papers.
 "Well that's a sick way of testing someones anger," he growled and cut his eyes up at her.
 She chuckled. "Yeah you've got me there....well it seems that we are done here. I'm going to take you back into the room with your friends."
 "Where's my sister?"
 "And she will join you soon. She is getting questioned as well," she stated and walked behind Zack. She unhooked his hands from the chair, but quickly hooked them behind his back. She helped him to his feet and pushed him along, out of the room. His eyes sweeped the hallways, trying to find an escape or any idea of where all his friends were.
 Pam opened a door and shoved Zack inside. Zack stumbled forward, but regained his footing. He looked up and noticed a tall blonde women standing in the middle of the room. He then looked over at Karliah, and his chest immediately ached when he saw that her face was streaked with tears.

Zack watched in disbelieve as his friends were taken down. He started to run after Karliah, trying to help her, but someone pulled his arm backwards. He turned toward them, snarling as he held Kristen close to his chest.
 The man that was standing in front of Zack smiled before stabbing a needle into Zack's neck.
 Zack gasped, he could already feel the liquid spreading throughout his body. He stumbled slightly, his vision blurring.
 The man grabbed Kristen out of Zack's arm and turned. He quickly walked down the hallway and disappeared behind a corner. Kristen tried fighting, but the man was too strong and she was already very weak.
 Zack tried running after the two, but he tripped over his own feet. He collapsed on the ground, his energy finally fading. He could feel someone pin him on the ground and put cuffs around his hands, just before he blacked out.

Zack jolted upright and looked around. He noticed all of his friends were running out of the room, all of them except Kristen. Zack looked around frantically, but did not see his sister. He known that they would keep her, just so Zack wouldn't be tempted to leave. He got to his feet and ran out the room. He glanced down the hallway that he was in and ran into the first door he spotted. There was a few beds, but no sign of Kristen. As he turned and continued down the hallway he heard a scream, one he knew too well from the nightmares she had. He bolted after the sound, his hearing and smell guiding him down the hallway and into a nearby room. He busted through the doors and quickly searched for his sister.
 When he made it into the room he spotted Kristen on a tiny bed. A man was standing over her, a needle stuck into her arm. "Zack," Kristen yelled out.
 Zack growled and ran forward. He grabbed the needle out of the man's hand and slammed the mans head against a table. Zack turned his attention back to Kristen and he slid the needle out of his sisters arm. He grabbed his sister and helped her to her feet.
 Kristen stumbled slightly, not able to stand fully.
 Zack huffed out a breath and scooped Kristen into his arms. He ran out of the room and searched for his friends. He ran down the hallway toward their scent and saw that they were getting surrounded by gaurds.
