Y/N's POV

I have been here for six years.
Six years of me hiding my true power.

A job assigned and everything.

"Shift three, report for work duty at warehouses six, eight and eleven." The PA announced.

I sighed and got ready for my long day of lacing shoes and polishing them.

The captain came over.

"You're doing it wrong. It goes like this." He showed me.

"Look at me. Look at me. Look at me!" He shouted in my ear.

"We're not supposed to look at you." I whispered.

"Hmm. Yeah. The aglets go over the holes, not under." He said.

He got even more agitated than he already was and shoved the equipment off of the table.

I shuddered.

"I've had my eye on you for a while. You're too dumb to be a Green. But after today, we're gonna know the truth." He said.

"The aglets go over." A girl next to me said.

The captain turned to the side to look at her.

"What did you say?" He questioned.

"They go under if you want a tighter fit." She explained and I silently thanked her.

"Well aren't you super smart." The captain said.

"Yeah just like the other greens in this room. I guess inhaling the shoe polish destroyed whatever brain cells you had left." She retorted.

The captain grabbed her by her hair and she screamed.

He pulled her away.

I looked wide eyed and soon continued to my previous task.
**************

My shift was soon over and we were all marching together.

Left, right, left, right

The captain told us to stop and we did as a whole.

"Run the test!" He yelled.

"Initiate subatomic frequency test." An agent spoke into his walkie.

"Copy that"

An alarm blared

Someone spoke over the Intercom. "Frequency test one."

The loud frequency started and I grabbed my head while screaming.

Kids around me were screaming louder than me. I stopped screaming and passed out.
***************

I woke up, my vision was blurry.

"Y/N?" The female asked me.

I looked around.

I felt something cold on my wrist.

It was handcuffs.

I started shaking my hand, trying to get out of them.

"Hey. Hey. It's okay. " The lady assured me.

"Do you feel any pain?" She asks while dabbing my forehead with a wet cloth.

I'm Dr. Begbie. But if it makes you feel more comfortable, you can call me Cate. Forget the doctor business. You know, before this, I was a social worker. And you remind me of a girl I used to know. What happened to her? I couldn't help her then. But I want you to know that I'm here for you now." She explained of her past.

The door buzzes and it opens, a guard walking in.

Cate clears her throat.

"Do you remember falling when the white noise turned on?" She asked and a guard banged on the gate.

"Times up." He says and opens the gate.

She gets up. Before she leaves I grabbed her arm. "This time it was different." I whispered and she nodded her head. Giving me a small smile.

She leaves the clipboard on the bed and leaves.

"I need to keep her overnight, I uh, still have tests to run." She says.

"That's something you need to take up with the captain McManus." The guard said.

I was alone. I picked up the clipboard and say the page. It had all if my information on there. I felt something underneath the paper and lifted it up.

It was a note.

It read:

They know you're orange.

They are coming to kill you.

If you want to live, meet me in the boiler room.

- a friend

The note had a key at the bottom of it.

I got up out of the bed and a alarm sounded.

"Security breach lockdown permitted"

The soldiers left and I ran over to the gate, unlocking it, and running away.

I made my way to the boiler room and waited patiently.

Kate soon came in rushing.

"Quick put these on." She handed me a uniform.

I got undressed and dressed again as fast as I could.

She gave me a mask and told me to play along.

It was raining hard outside and we got into her car.

"They are looking for you. And when they find you, they will kill you." She explains.

We came up to the gate.

"Cover your face as much as possible." She instructed.

She rolled down her window.

"Hey, I've got Dr. Rogers with me.

"Dr. Rogers, ID, please. "

"Yeah, I have it right here. She, uh, is zonked out on pain meds, poor thing." Kate explains.

"Dr. Rogers. I'm gonna have to ask you to remove your mask." The Captain says.

"Captain, I don't think that's a good idea. She is highly contagious."

"Roll down the back window, please. "

"Captain, I don't think that's a-"

"We have a security breach. Roll down your window. I will not ask again." Captain orders.

Kate sighed and rolled the window down.

"Dr. Rogers I'm going to need you to take off the mask." The Captain says.

"Dr. Rogers- " he touches my shoulder and I turn around and look into his eyes.

"You don't feel well."

" Uh... I don't feel well." The Captain says.

"You will let us move on."

He backs away from the car and tells us to move along.

I fall asleep.
