CHAPTER 11- The experiment
_________________________


Just then, a woman that looked like she was in her 30's stepped into the bathroom. She must’ve had a key, because I locked the door. "Hello, my name is Dr. Jordan. Marina Jordan. I’m a doctor here. And I heard all about you! You have wings and all...” She noticed the vomit I had just deposited into the toilet and the tears streaked across my face. “Oh my goodness, are you okay, sweetie?”
The way she said that last word reminded me of my mom, because she always called me that. I whipped my face away from her, remaining silent.
Karyn stepped into the doorway of the bathroom. “Zennia, I know you’re in shock from your mother being killed... I’m sorry, I should’ve given you time to calm down before I made you blow up like that....”
“It’s fine...” I said. I was finally speaking after so many hours.
Karyn nodded awkwardly and walked away. He looked very worried.

“Aw, so that’s what happened. I’m very sorry to hear that.” Dr. Jordan said in a sympathetic tone.
I didn’t look at her.

"Umm.. I have something to tell you," Dr. Jordan said, her urgency forcing me to look at her in the eyes. "You’ve had this altered DNA ever since.. well, your father let us experiment on you, before you were actually ‘born.’ We’ve done this to many other kids in the world.” She said in a serious tone. “What?!” I said, shocked. I guess my mom’s surprise about my wings was all an act. If my father knew about it she must have too. “Yes.” She said, and picked up a syringe, and injected something into my right arm. "You will be chipped." was the last thing I heard her say, before I was out cold.
