The Base

2183 Words
I wake up in a white room and my white dress has mud probably from when I was running, where is this place? I get to my feet and camera in the corner, I tell them to let me out. After a few minutes, I sit back in the corner, curled up in a ball. I feel pain and anger, anger towards Serius, John, Silas even my parents for dying. I'm breathing heavily still in the corner of this room, beside me is a small bed with white sheets. I try to use my abilities but I can’t. Why do I feel so helpless now? The door opens and a beautiful tall woman walks up to me with a small smile "Hello Aurora, my name is Stephanie," she hesitates before continuing. " Welcome to the base, you have been selected to be part of the special program, well let me not bore you ... you'll know the details later, " "You kidnapped me, let me out now!” I scream, I can’t even use my aura or Alpha voice because I can’t feel my wolf but even if I did would it work on a human? I do have a mean aura, people obey when I command or lower their heads when I speak to them. Stephanie comes close and I step back, she tries again but before she can reach me, I quickly grab her neck and push her against the wall. " Feisty little princess we got here huh, you're making a mistake," Stephanie says in a calm tone of voice. "Now you are going to open that door and let me out of here or I snap your neck got it?" I order, tightening my grip around her. "This I like, you have guts kid, he was right about you after all and you are very beautiful, you can be so useful to us," she smiles, looking at me I look at her confused, what is she talking about? Well, I don't care, all I know is that I have to get out and go back home, am sure they are worried sick about me. While lost in my train of thoughts, she manages to switch our position and leans close "Lesson number one, don't get distracted and just do it right away alright, baby girl? just go straight for the kill," she clicks her tongue, " See you in a bit. I will tell him you're awake," I watch her walk out with a happy smile. I'm dumbfounded, I have so many questions. What did she mean useful? And who is he? Who are they? What is the base? What am I f*****g doing here?! I don't know how long I've been sitting on this small bed. The door opens again and I get up, this time a man comes in first followed by Stephanie then another young man. " Welcome to the base, my name is, Robert, I am the head of the organization, and no need to tell me about you, oh I know all about you trust me," a smirk forms on his lips. He looks into my eyes, I don't avoid his gaze, Robert is tall and thin with a little bit of grey hair, he has brown eyes that would scare anyone but me, he is wearing a black suit. " I believe you have a lot of questions and am here to answer them all, so ask away," "Let me out of here now," I look straight into his devilish dull eyes "Not possible," The young man answers. I glare at him, he's about 6'1 feet tall with hazel eyes, I can see his biceps, he is cute with blonde hair and looks like he is in his twenties. "Well, you haven't even heard our offer and oh, by the way, am Raphael," I ignore him and look back at Robert who is giving me a scrutinizing look. "We are a government organization who work to keep the country safe from attacks and terrorists without it getting in the books, every two years we look for potential people to train, teach a lot of things such as hacking, handle weapons, spying to get information, how to fight of course and so much." " We are more like well-trained spies not everyone gets in, we look for certain people," Robert says before being interrupted by Raphael "We don't get supernaturals but you are special, you and your abilities," Raphael says drinking his water casually. “How do you know about me?” I ask “Doesn’t matter,” he shrugs, I hate this! I growl but it doesn't come out the way it should. All I do is laugh at how crazy they sound, what makes them think I'll help them, or do what they say. "Are you crazy? am fifteen years old and I am sure as f**k won't do anything for you, I said it and I'll say it again, I. want. To. Leave" I order slowly in a rough harsh tone. " Okay fine, you may," Robert says, Raphael and Stephanie look at him like a mad man and I stand up to walk to the door but before I touch the doorknob, he says something that makes me stop in my tracks. Jeremy. "Your brother is in Switzerland, right? You know we are a well-connected organization, we can keep you and your brother safe from the people who want your power. We can find them for you or do it the other way," I glare at him "Are you threatening to hurt my brother?" "Oh no my dear, we are just helping you here, giving you a gift, a purpose," he says as calmly as he can. "And in return, you can leave after you are done with your missions and your brother safe with the one thing you always wanted, answers and revenge on what happened to your family," he has a devilish smile on his face. "When our scientist found out about what your blood can do even as a child and word came out, they wanted to continue but your father wouldn't let them, so they took him out and were going to get you so that they can continue but good thing we got to you first," says a familiar voice in the room, Stephanie. "Who killed my parents?" "What will you do even if we tell you? Go after them? you're not strong enough Aurora, you need training, know yourself, and how to handle situations and that is where we come in," sighs Stephanie leaning against the leather couch. I have to know who killed my parents, they took them from me. if I leave from here they might come for my clan? a lot of people will die because of me, I can’t do that Nik, Kat, and my father’s clan I have to keep them safe. “My brother, “ “You’ll see him on holidays, visit him but no one can know about the base, “ answers Stephanie looking pleased that am considering their offer. Robert next to her smiles while the other guy has an expression I do not know. After leaving the office, Raphael shows me around the building. The base is in the middle of nowhere, the building so large I'm surprised the outside world hasn't spotted it yet. The inside is even bigger and well organized, there are people training, elevators going up and down, others at the firing range in uniforms, doing all sorts of things. The Base is like an agency every room has a purpose and needs codes to get access into, I notice my tour guide has most of them, but also they are some rooms, he doesn't let me enter. I wonder what's behind those closed doors, torture room? and he told me we are underground, and even if an army were to come in here, they wouldn't find us Later in the day, I go back to Robert's office, and this time, Stephanie escorts me, since she is the one helping me settle in, I already have clothes, mostly uniforms, pants, and shirts, with a few dresses " One more thing, once a week, you’ll be meeting with some scientists for some check-ups …. Nothing you can’t handle,” he says rubbing his hands together with a sinister look on his face, spinning in his seat, with a small smile, I get up from my seat angry. “Am I some sort of an experiment to you? Why do you need to run tests huh?” I ask sternly and looking him dead in the eye, he said the people who killed my parents wanted to know more about what my blood can do, isn't he doing the exact thing? “That is part of the deal my dear Aurora,” I hate his stupid deep voice. Before I can speak Stephanie interrupts “it's okay beautiful, you’ll be fine we just want to see what makes you special,” she comes up to me and holds my shoulder, she’s so calm…just like Nikolas, she soothes me. I nod looking at Stephanie before glaring at Robert who still has a sinister look and leave the office After settling in, I start my training it’s a job, not a common one, I text my siblings to tell them am fine and I can’t tell him anything but I’ll be calling them once a week. Stephanie asks questions, finding out my interest, what I liked to do, I enjoy modeling, and participated in beauty pageants in the city, she says the base has a lot of connections and can help me while I do what I am here for. ... Weeks have passed and while in the cafeteria, a guy walks up to me “Hey beautiful we are going out, coming?” " No, I'm training," I sigh. He frowns and leaves me alone. ' Storm,' I try to call my wolf. I still can’t feel her. beep, I check my watch, It is a reminder that in a few hours I have to go to the lab, they usually extract my venom and blood to run all sorts of tests on it. It hurts like a b***h, machines attached to my body feel like daggers embedded in my skin. Raphael is a big help in training, a little flirty but it’s cool, this place is like a military just comfortable and I’ve met some nice colleagues too. Two years later "Our little Princess has grown into a fine sexy lady," comments Raphael looking at me, and sends a flying kiss my way. I leave the gym, how can he be this shameless! I take a shower and call Nikolas to see if he's going to Jeremy's basketball game, I’ve been so busy. I asked my family not to tell me anything about the clan, I don’t want to think about it especially John. I live a carefree life, I travel the world and party as long as I do what the base wants and complete their missions. I attend online courses for business and administration, I don't like it, I only do it because my parents have always wanted it for me, I prefer being a supermodel and I am one of the best out there. I talk to my therapist, Charles, once a week, he's a big help to me too, he says I have a lot of anger and pain maybe letting it go is the best thing, but I don't want to, I love it. Charles has been my therapist for a long time since my parents passed, so he gets me He suggested I should try doing something like scream or cry but crying is a no for me, no matter how much I try, I just can't so I play the piano or scream, it feels so good. "Good job on the mission, Robert wouldn't stop talking about it," says Stephanie walking in the gym, as usual, wearing a very tight dress and heels, her hair well done in a ponytail. I take off my boxing gloves and go to her. Lately, I have been in a good mood, my deal with Robert was that I will work with them for two years and I turned seventeen some months ago, but they have been getting more of my blood lately "You have a runway in Morocco next week," I nod as she gives me a red wig, taking it with a frown, gosh another mission. She comes closer holding my waist, "Don't be sad, at least you will see him," I blush at what she says, why does she have to say it? I missed that crazy i***t of mine. " I am so proud of you, Aurora," she is smiling at me. "Thanks," I tell her and put my gloves back on. She laughs softly when she sees me looking at the syringe in her hand, then leaves me a file of the next target.
