Experiment 101, tried to slam on the glass. She heard a grumbling sound of anger from the thing on her so-called grandpa, making her move a few of her strength.
She felt joy.
She could now warn her brother!
"Yiling! Yiling!" The voice of Tim sounded in panic.
She normally never heard her brother like this, but right now, he was obviously in fear and panic.
"Grandpa, Yiling is! Yiling is!" Tim ran toward their so-called grandpa.
"Don't fret little Tim, she is just tired."
Tim glimpsed at the suffering Experiment 101, then it floated in the water tank as if it had fallen asleep.
"See, she is tired."
"If she is just tired then why is there electricity going to the water?" Tim asked his hand in a clench, looking at their so-called grandpa in red teary eyes.
"That is how she is. She sometimes brings out electricity whenever she felt tired."
"I---hmmmphh"
Dianna who was able to take control of her body, hinder the mouth of Tim.
She had been observing the monster on the man with white and black hair. If Tim pushed what he thought, she felt that thing would kill them on the spot.
"I don't hate curious kids... but... I hate kids who go against me." He said as both his pupil turned red.
Then they both felt stiff as their body started to move, not on their own, walking toward the jail they were in before she woke up.
She couldn't help but be in horror while walking toward the place they had been staying when she first came here.
On their way, she saw the disfigured people. Some are animals with a body of humans, others seem like an alien because they are like liquid, or in a weird shape. A great fear traveled from her heart, over each and every cell of hers. Although their parents told them that they were just holographic, their body moving on their own isn't such.
Her breathing became ragged. As the tears flowed from her eyes. She wanted to speak and shouted for help, but couldn't. All they could do was walk until they reached their destination.
They entered inside the cell, and the door locked on its own.
Her body collapsed but Tim stood. He glowered at thè man, who smirked at him, in his eyes was an obvious excitement. "You really are perfect Little Tim! Perfect! Hahaha hihihi hahaha." His eyes were the same as a crazy man, making her uncomfortable. "You are the most perfect child I've been looking for. Bwahahaha. Really perfect!" Then he turned his back and walked away with laughter in his voice. Tim faced her, his eyes started to watery.
"Dianna!" Afterward, he suddenly glomped at her. He hugged her tight as if afraid she would be gone. She felt the wetness on her clothes. She peered at Tim, he was still crying.
Tears and snot flowed out on her attire. She wanted to get mad but couldn't because his little brother who never cried before was crying now.
"I am glad. I am glad you were alive. *sniff* *sniff*" He tightened his hold on her clothes, as his body shivered.
She didn't understand what's going on. Tim normally will fight with her and never act like a typical child, but right now, he is acting like one.
She hugged him back, as her eyes started to felt warm, and tears flowed out from her eyes.
She also felt scared, so scared, but Tim needed her right now. She patted his back, trying to hushed him. Tim looked up at her.
"Dianne let's get out of here." He said with a conviction in his eyes, but his eyes still had a liquid on them.
"Again with a stupid idea."
Dianna looked at who spoke. It was the familiar voice of Samuel. "Samuel..." she called out, but pause out of surprise with his current appearance.
His face is much more distinguishable, but it was now made with metal, even his hand was metal, but his fingers were like a sharp blade. But in her eyes, he became a cyborg. A very cool and amazing cyborg. "Samuel... how did you become a cyborg?"
Samuel faced her, "... Do I look like a cyborg to you?"
"Yeah." She answered with awed.
Tim pouted and blocked Dianna's sight. "He looked like an ugly monster! Hmph."
"Tim." She warned her little brother.
"Why are you talking with that pessimistic guy? He only knew how to think and say negative stuff."
"I am being realistic!"
"You are being pessimistic!"
"Realistic!"
"Pessimistic!"
"Realistic!"
"Pessimistic!"
"Stop fighting!" Dianne interlude.
"I was just being realistic. He had been telling you for 3 months that you two will be able to escape." Samuel turned his back.
Dianna was shocked and faced Tim who bowed his head. "3 months." She whispered. It didn't seem like that for her. It was like she just woke up yesterday. Her eyes went in Tim's direction who been bowing his head. She didn't understand why, but she felt she needed to say sorry. She hugged Tim once more. "Sorry." She said it out of sincerity.
"Wa Why are you saying sorry?"
Dianna hugged him tighter. She could feel Tim's fear. Was it how it was, because they both came from the same family, she can distinguish Tim's emotion? "I'm sorry Tim. Once we are out. I won't be having a fight with you. And I promised to protect you, no matter what."
"Wa what are you talking about?" Tim said sniffing.
"I am your older sister after all. And as an elder sister, it is my job to protect my younger brother!"
"As if you can do that. They were even able to control you. If not for Yiling, you might never go back to your consciousness again."
She remembered the one inside the tank that was named No. 101. Although it had a hideous look it nevertheless didn't do them any harm, and even helped her. "Really?" Tim nodded at her. "Then can it also help us to leave this place?"
Tim nodded again. "Yiling told me that it will help us to escape."
"And you believe it?" Samuel spoke out.
"Shut up! Pessimistic kid!" Tim annoyingly said, forgetting he was a younger and smaller kid.
"Who are you calling a kid, you shrimp!"
"Why are you even quarreling with a kid? So childish." Tim said. Samuel wanted to rebuke but couldn't found the right word to say, so he just turned around, mumbling. "Dianne, Yiling told me that when the night came, she will help us out."
Dianna smiled at him. "I believe in Tim."

The night falls and then a sound of footsteps came, but then halt with the sudden sound of ringing fell. The blinking red light sone in the whole place, as if showing a warning sign.
The footstep went far away, then the door in the cage where they were open. "Here is our chance!" Tim whispered.
Dianna smiled and held Tim's hand. "Samuel let's go." She called at Samuel.
"I won't do something suicidal." then his back faced them.
"Just let that Pessimistic kid." Tim scorned Samuel, Let's go first where Yiling is."
"But..."
"We needed to leave but I wanted to go where Yiling is, after all, Yiling is the one who helped us. I want to bring her along with us." Dianna's eyes went on the Samuel who didn't even glimpse at them. She then faced her little brother and nodded her head.
They walked where Experiment 101 is. The one in the tank smiled at them.
Although it seemed creepy Dianna let it be. She just waiting for Tim, so that they could leave together.
"Why won't you come?" Tim said with teary eyes. Experiment 101 beamed at them. Then it took out something from its mouth. And it floated out going to Tim's hand. "You mean, with this we won't be found until we are 100 meters away from you. It nodded at them.
"Let's go Tim they might find us!" She said in worry.
"Dianne, eat this." Dianna looked at the white shiny pearl.
She saw Tim gulping it down, so she did the same. The fishy bitter taste came from that sphere then melted inside hers.
The next thing she felt, her body feeling both feeling cold then hot. She bit her lips so she won't shout with the burning sensation, afraid that the weird guy will come to them along with the scary thing on his shoulder. Tim held her hand then ran, then she noticed was that they are floating.
Her body turned translucent.
They flew out, the door for the exit was closed, but what surprised her was that they just passed through it. Then they flew away until they fell on the ground. Their body became visible.
"Let's run Tim." She said to Tim.
Tim then started to ran, but then his body gave up and fall. "You ran Dianne. Tell mom and dad of what happens."
"Oh, little children! How could you just ran away! Do you know what the consequence if you kids won't come out!" Shouted the scary guy they had been talking with these past few days.
Dianna gritted her teeth. "I will never leave you behind." Then she carried her behind her. The heaviness was not easy to carry, but she made a promise that she would protect her little brother.
They hid behind the shrubs, to take some rest, Tim loose consciousness while she was carrying him. She caressed her little brother's face, her eyes started to warm up. "I'm sorry Tim, I love you always. Tell mom and dad I love them, okay. Take care." Then she kissed his forehead and put a necklace around his neck.
She looked at her unconscious brother and then the voice had been calling for them. She closed her eyes and made a decision. She put her little brother inside the cave, they had found since the beginning, then put mud and branches of leaves so that the cave couldn't be seen.
She was about to run for a meter when she was hindered by a scary-looking person, that is like a zombie.
She stepped back and fell on her buttocks.
"Tsk tsk tsk. Little Dianna, how could you run away from grandpa." He said with a grin on his face. "Now tell me where is Tim."
Dianna stared at him. "I will never give you my little brother!"
The man's eyes darkened. "Is that so? Then grandpa had no choice but to make you!" He then held her neck, making her hang in the air. "Tim! Come out else I will kill your sister!" Dianna didn't make any sound. "If you won't come out, I will tear your older sister's body." Then a shearing pain is felt on her shoulder. It was too painful, that tears flow out from her eyes, her mind gone blank and the next thing she remembers was that her sight turned black.
