Here's part two! I hope I don't disappoint ya'll!
Previously on Ch.28:
This was the part of my memory I'd rather choose to forget.
Edward saw my hesitation and put a comforting warm hand on mine.
"What did these people do to you and the other children Bella?" he asked, an unnameable emotion burning in his golden eyes.
"They experimented on us."
Now, Ch.29:
"They WHAT?!" Both Edward and Alice asked at the same time, both shocked and furious.
I ignored their emotions and settled into my own.
"The scientists wanted to create a vast army of immortals so that they could rule the world. Immortality only lied within the monsters of our world at the time - it was never in human form."
"They had uncovered tools that had been buried deep within a cave nearby, and the tools had. . . ancient power that had seemingly magical properties. . . But it was hell on our bodies, they would use these needle-like objects in every vital spot - puncturing through our skin mercilessly."
I took a deep breath as Jasper began calming me with his ability.
"So that is why you reacted to the needle before. . ." Carlisle murmured and I looked at him and nodded.
"On my first day," I continued, "they took me into a room where they ensued their experimentations. They tied me down to a chair while I screamed for help, for my family. . . but no one could begin to hear me, hope could not find me. Then they inserted the first needle and I screamed harder as tears began running down my cheeks. 'Please stop,' I whimpered."
"They only looked down at me and said, 'You are going to become an immortal.' I whimpered out, 'But I do not want to become immortal, I just want to be with my family.'"
"Then they only laughed and finished the process of sticking the needles into every vital spot throughout my body. And then the Change began." My voice sounded dead and defeated as I remembered. . .
"The Change?" Edward asked softly, his eyes sad.
"It occurred after one had experienced the Shekiah - the needles. After my first session, they took me to my room - which was completely dark, and there I suffered from the Change that was happening within my body." I then looked at all the Cullens.
"Do you remember how you became who you are now? Three days of endless fire burning through you? Changing you?"
They nodded yes as they remembered the vampire venom spreading through them and changing them.
"Imagine that. . . every waking moment for six years of endless torture and beatings as a child." I whispered, remembering just how cold-hearted those bastards were.
"How did you handle that level of pain?" Edward's perfect voice broke on the last word.
"I'm not sure. . . quite frankly, no one really knows how I survived. . ." I said, backtracking a bit before getting back into my story.
"After about five years of the Change, I had grown to be the most respected among all of the. . . 'immortal children.' Since I had not yet died from the Change. . ." I looked over at the Cullens and their was shock plainly written on their faces. "Most children began dying from the Change that was slowly changing us on the inside of our bodies. All of our bodily functions would shut down and our lungs would begin to fill with blood, which we would cough up.
"Blood would begin to pour out of our ears, eyes, and noses - and we couldn't fight it. We were constantly in fear of our death, because one minute you could be completely healthy, and the next you were coughing up and gagging on your own life blood."
Everyone was speechless, so I continued.
"In all my existence, I would have to say that dying from the Change as a child would have to be the worst possible death - partly because you never expected when your body would reject the Change." My voice dropped, and my eyes fell to my hands that were on my lap.
"Which brings me to how I met a girl named Addy."
If you noticed, I used the Shekiah from the Legend of the Seeker, and the Change from the House of Night series. Lol, hope no one gets mad, and I hope you all enjoyed this!
