CHAPTER THREE

, we are doing ourselves and the country a favor.

Colonel Leo: You are right sir; I also have an intel that the president is seeking to pull the plug on our funding.

General Ryker: That little c**k blower, I was fighting wars when he was still sucking on his mama, that poster boy doesn’t know I’ve got more dirt on him than a bag of manure, you leave him to me and focus on our test subject and their progress.

Colonel Leo: Yes, sir

Bruce tried to open his eyes but found it difficult, it was like something heavy was pressed against his face but either way, he forcefully opened his eyes for a moment, he couldn’t tell if he was floating or imagining his weightlessness when he tried to move his arms and limbs he notices some tubes connected to them, that was when he noticed he was suspended in a jelly-like liquid, on focusing his eyes he could see through the jelly-like liquid, he could see people moving around in their lab coats, some sitting and some walking with their computers while other were carrying out different experiment at their work stations.

One of the scientists at the workstation noticed Bruce’s movement inside the glass tank, stood up and then went close to the tank for better observation. After noticing Bruce was awake he tried to draw the attention of the rest and they all walked towards the tank in disbelief while he tried to move inside the tank but before they could do anything he freed his hands and started punching the two-hundred-centimeter-thick glass. After the first punch, the second punch cracked the glass, he kept at it and the fifth punch shattered the glass and Bruce fell to the ground. Bruce tried to stand but his knees were weak and his movement was uncoordinated, he fell to his knees he tried to speak but couldn’t without thinking twice he grabbed the object that sealed his mouth and forcefully pulled it out of his mouth, which he immediately regretted as it was linked to a long tube that went down his throat to his stomach when he was done pulling the whole thing out, he collapsed on the floor and started vomiting. About five scientists tried to help him up to his feet but in his confused state he tried to get them off him as he swung his arm he threw two scientists miles away from him high in the air. Bruce was still trying to understand what just happened when the event that took place earlier came rushing through his mind, he remembered being strapped to a bed helpless and being told by the general that he was nothing but a lab rat which infuriated him, that bastard he said underneath his breath, with his instinct kicking in, he threw the rest of the scientist off him the way he did with the first two scientists. The only exit out of the hall was miles away, he aimed for the exit and took to his heels within seconds he was at the exit and crashed through the door before he could control his speed, the shock of what just happened left him all confused as he struggled to get out of the rubbles wondering how he was able to move that fast then the alarms went off all of a sudden, it felt as if they had plugged the loudest megaphone to his eardrums the sound was super piercing, he had to cover his ears and he fell to the ground, he tried to scramble back to his feet as he made his way to a door in the long passage that leads to a room and he shot the door behind himself and the sound died off but within seconds he noticed white fumes everywhere in the room before he could run to the door he collapsed.
