"Stop it, stop it!" I yelled as the bad men held me down and pulled my arms, and my long, thick hair as I fought to get of their hard grip.

"Что мы делаем?" (what do we do?), one of the men said.

The other men didn't listen. They just kept fighting me, but I fought back. One of the biggest, and strongest men hit me in the face and said:

"заткнись, или ты знаешь, что происходит!" (shut up or you know what happens!).

I knew exactly what he meant. He was gonna lock me in the "shame room". That's where they put me whenever I didn't listen. It was the worst thing I knew. Being locked in a very small, dark and smelly room.

So, I stopped fighting and sat down on the chair. The men hurried out of the room to lock the door. They watched me through the glass window.

"давайте впустим животное" (let's let the animal in), I heard a muffled voice say.

I wondered what he was talking about. I looked at the men. They pushed a big, red button and a small door opened slowly in the room I was in.

To my horror, a big foreign monster in the size of a grown man walked in. It opened its big, scary mouth with millions of disgusting, small and scarily sharp teeth. I screamed my guts out. Oh my god. What was happening?

That's when I knew what it was. It was a demogorgon. One of the foreign monsters I'd heard the Russians talk about earlier. So, I knew I had to defeat it.

I also knew what the Russians wanted out of this. They wanted to see if I was a useful weapon. Then they were gonna use me. Ugh, this is never gonna end.

But I didn't have time to think about that right now.

I backed as the monster slowly walked up to me. I panicked. I couldn't stop screaming.

I had to use my special abilities. Or else I would die.

I shoved it up to the ceiling, and down to the floor again. I raised my arm up and down as the monster screeched. It was a horrible sound.

I let go. It was still alive. Now, it was really mad at me.

I had to try even harder. Or it would kill me.

I gathered all my strength and tried to kill it once and for all. I wasn't sure even I was gonna be alive after this.

I yelled. I let out an ear splitting scream as the blood flowed out of my nose and ears. I'd never used my powers like this before.

I heard its neck snap.

The demogorgon let out the worst sound I'd ever witnessed, and shortly after that dropped dead on the floor.

I fell apart. I had no strength left in my veins. I just fell apart on the floor next to the dead monster. I felt like I didn't even remember my name, that's how exhausted I was. I just laid there in the ground, crying out of exhaustion.

I could hear the Russians voices behind the glass. I couldn't hear if they were concerned about me, or if they were just impressed.

But, that's the last thing I remember before everything went black.

I woke up on my small bed, in my small room.

"Thank god they hadn't put me in the shame room", I thought.

I looked to my side. They'd gotten me a glass of water.

I drank it.

I tried to recall as much as possible before my blackout.

I remembered that they'd held me down, hit me, and threatened me. Then they had forced me to fight a demogorgon.

I wanted to go back to sleep. But, I knew I had to leave. I couldn't stay here, just to be their lab rat. I just couldn't bear getting abused anymore.

So, I decided that I'd escape. Tonight.

I mean, I have my abilities. What else do I need?

I stood up in my white hospital gown. But before I left, I had to practice up my powers a little bit.

At least I knew how to kill now. I didn't do that before today.

I lifted the glass of water into the air with my mind. In a second, it exploded into pieces and fell to the ground. I backed so I wouldn't get hurt by the glass.

I gasped. Imagine doing that to someone's head.

There wasn't much stuff in my room, only a bed with sheets and a pillow, and a nightstand with a lamp.

Not even a window.

I lifted my pillow with my mind again. I flew it around in the air for a moment. I chuckled. It was kinda fun! But after a couple seconds, I made it explode and feathers went everywhere.

I sat down for a moment. This was it. Now, I was gonna escape. What I'd been dreaming about ever since I was a little kid. Now, as a teen I'm finally ready.

I heard the Russians outside. I waited them out, so nobody would see me.

Now I saw my chance. I opened the nightstand and took out the hairtie one of the female scientists had gave me once.

I put up my hair, and opened the door with my mind. The lock slowly opened, and I was out.

The hallway was dark, and the lights flickered. I don't have good memories from this place.

I tried to walk as quietly as possible. I also didn't know where the exit is, so that's an issue.

It's in the middle of the night, so there isn't a lot of people here right now.

*thud*

I heard someone. Oh I ran. I ran as fast as I could. I really couldn't get caught now.

I ran down stairs, through doors, and elevators. "My body isn't made for running", I said to myself.

I finally stopped. "Thank god", I thought. There was no one following me.

I turned around. To my surprise, I saw a big green sign above a door. It said: "exit".

"Yes!", I thought. But, before I could do anything else, I felt a strong body grab me from behind.

"NO! NO LET ME GO!", I cried.

"Я получил ее!" (I've got her!), he yelled.

I faced him. I looked at his ugly grin. I gathered all my rage, punched him in the stomach and shoved him into the wall with my mind. He fell unconscious to the ground.

I wiped the blood from my nose with my hand as I started running. Had I killed him? I wasn't sure. But I was sure that I heard voices. So I had to run.

I was out of the building. The snow was cold touching my bare legs. I was only wearing a thin hospital gown, and it was freezing Russian weather outside. But, I had to go now or they would take me back.

I ran as fast as I could. I looked back at the building. There was a huge sign on the wall saying: "национальная лаборатория россии" (national laboratory of Russia).

I hope this is my last time seeing it. I really really hope so.
