Chapter 57 - Death part 3

"Trained with Death."

Laura laid down in her usual white room starring at her hands, she couldn't get used to them even after a full week. The pain, the pain came every time. And they wanted her to do it over and over and over. Her mind was in disarray as she stared down.

The door opened as a guard walked in. "Time for training." Laura stood up slowly and walked out the door, head still down a smile playing on her lips.

************

*Schlik* Bone claws came out of her hands as blood slowly flowed to the ground, her eyes were drawn to the red, she was mesmerized with it. The skin that had just been split healed in a second but blood still came out each time.

Again and again and again, she would pop her claws and retract them, watching it over and over, her eyes never wavering.

************

"ARGH!!" Laura shouted out as she tried to struggle free, they were man handling her again, but this time she was able to kill one of them before they grabbed her, her claws were still coated with blood. In the recent weeks she had been more rebellious; her instincts told her to fight back every chance she had.

Being pulled into a room with another metal table, her body shivered once again as she struggled even harder. "No let go! I'll kill you! Let go!" Screaming her lungs out she was finally strapped to the table again, out of desperation all her claws were popped, something she would come to regret.

*Bang* A fist came and slammed into her head dazing her for a second before she regained herself, her healing making it a quick process. *Bang* *Bang* Another two fists came in before finally stopping. Dazed and with tears in her eyes she looked at the man above her.

Dressed in a surgical gown with blue gloves and a mask on, she could just make out who this person was, it was Zander. Zander loomed above her as he smiled behind his mask, the twinkle of hate in his eyes shining bright.

Laura looked up at him, an anger starting to take control as she struggled about. "Haha" Giving a small chuckle he turned to the side. "Do it." Multiple people stepped to her side, metal spikes in hand. "Make it painful, ohh and record the data."

Two electrodes were connected to her head as a small machines started to whirl to life, before she could figure out what was happening the people around her raised their spikes and impaled them into her arms and legs. "ARGHHHHH!"

Screaming in pain blood spurted out as Laura felt hot white pain, on the tip of her lips was just one question. "Why?" Zander didn't answer as her body was finally restrained in place, no muscle could be moved. He had specifically ordered for this to happen.

To convince the rest, he just had to sight evaluation of her healing process, something that satisfied him greatly. Grabbing the equipment he brought, he lowered the clamp onto the first claw and clasped it into place.

The smile underneath the mask grew as recognition flashed through her eyes. Seeing the slight widening of her eyes he got started. *Yank* *Rip* *Break* "RGHHHHHH!!!!!" "AHHHHH!!!!" "#@*(#^"

Incomprehensible words came from Laura's mouth as her right bone claw was ripped out. *Snap* *Break* Placing the first claw onto a table at the side he moved to grab the other one. This process repeated itself another 5 times before it was finally done.

Laura lay weakly on the metal bed, blood still falling from the body, it twitched every now and then as Zander moved off to the back of the room. Walking up to a vat of boiling silver liquid he grabbed a special pair of pliers and lowered the bone claws into the Adamantium vat.

10 minutes later as Laura's eyes were unfocused starring to the lamp above her Zander once again appeared. Leaning down close to her ear, he whispered quietly. "It's not over yet, not by a long shot. Suffer you abomination."

And so started the process of reinserting her new metal claws. "ARGHHHHH!!!!!!"

*******************

*Snikt* Metal claws popped from her hands as a small amount of blood dripped down. Now that her claws where razor thin and sharp not as much blood came out. Feeling rage bubble up again at the sight of her claws, she punched her hand into the wall.

*Crunch* Leaving a huge puncture from the blow, she still felt her bones creak underneath the blow, but her face didn't twitch. The door opened. "Time for Training." A small smile came to her face.

*******************

Zander watched a camera feed into the white room that housed Laura, something caught his eye, something that he didn't want to see. A smile adorned Laura's face and a frown came to Zander's. Replaying the footage for a few seconds he quickly deduced the reason.

Pulling up the footage of her training session a malicious smile came to his face. Pressing a small button on the desk he was at, a small beep went off. *Beep* "Yes sir?" "Prepare a test sample for product 11." There was silence over the other side before the reply came. "Yes sir."

*******************

Laura happily made her way out of the white room and moved the corridors to her destination, it was about the only thing she enjoyed doing here. The guards couldn't ruin her mood, nothing could ruin her mood at that moment.

Opening the door to the small dojo that was inside the facility, the smile on her face grew wider as she saw an old Chinese man with his back turned to her. Walking into the room she bowed respectively. "Sensei!"

Turning around slowly the man had a smile on his face when he saw the Black haired girl. "Ahh if it isn't the young lass, is it that time already?" She nodded in excitement. Seeing the young girl so excited he gave a small chuckle before walking over to the other side of the room.

"I've been told I have to train you with the use of my sword today, it shouldn't take too long." Laura was a bit down cast at the news, she like close quarter combat more than anything else she was taught, plus the blade would involve possibly getting sliced with the blade, something she wasn't looking forward to.

The sensei just smiled at her reaction as he was about to open the closet. "If we get through everything fast enough I happen to have an extra bar of chocolate I was eating beforehand with your name on it." Giving her a wink he flashed a small bar of chocolate that he had smuggled in.

Laura's eyes widened in surprise for a second before she quickly nodded her head. She had only had chocolate a few times in her entire life; she could count the amount of times on her fingers. It was her favorite meal so far, but something strictly prohibited.

Giving another chuckle the Sensei finally opened the closet and pulled out his old sword. He had been using the sword for many years, since he was a young man, it went everywhere with him, it was his life.

As soon as the sword appeared though there was something wrong. Turning back to look at Laura, the old man stopped. *Sniff* *Sniff* Laura's nose twitched twice as a new type of scent entered her mind, she had never smelt it before, but it felt familiar.

As the smell traveled up her brain and it started to register in her mind, she started to pant, her heart rate was increasing. The sensei suddenly tensed as he felt something he hadn't felt in a long time. Killing intent! And it was coming from Laura! She had never shown such a thing while they were training, but now it was starting to bubble to the surface.

"Grr." A low growl escaped Laura's lips as her eyes turned blood shot. *Snikt* Her Metal claws popped on their own as she started to stalk towards her Sensei. "Laura." He asked in caution, but didn't get a reply. "Laura!" He shouted but still got no response.

Gritting his teeth in frustration he pulled his sword clean out of the sheath and prepared himself. "ARgh!" Shouting out in pure rage, Laura sprinted forwards slashing and hacking, going in for the kill at every chance she got. The Sensei raised his blade for a block and watched shocked as the blade was sliced clean in two.

Before he could react Laura lunged forwards and skewered her claws through him. *Cough* *Hack* Coughing up a small amount of blood, his body started to fail him as she continued to slash into his body, she was out of her mind.

"RARGHHHHHHHHH."

When Laura regained her awareness, her sensei was lying in a pool of blood in front of her. Her mind that had just calmed down shattered as she looked at the blood on her hands. Fallen in the puddle of blood was the small bar of chocolate that the man kept on him.

She looked from the peaceful face of her dead sensei, to the red covered chocolate on the ground, before finally looking down at her own claws. "NOOO. ARGHHHH." Laura screamed in despair.

********************

Laura stared blandly at the opening door to the white room. Her breath was barely above a whisper as two people walked in. One was Zander, someone she had truly grown to hate; the other was a woman she had never seen before.

With black hair that fell down to her shoulders, a deep tanned skin and a black tank top and long pants, the new woman was fierce. You could easily see the muscles she had developed which looked like they could easily crush bones.

Standing there with a huge malicious grin on her face, she starred at Laura as if she were looking at Prey. Zander spoke. "Laura I would like you to meet your new handler, Kimura."
