"Finally I'm out of the lab." He said aloud. This was his first day back to the lab in 7 days because he had to stay home and watch the games. His work had been boring today, but it paid well enough to almost feed him, his mother, and Zachery. Poor Zachery he thought watching father die made him lose his mind. After that he hurt himself many times and now he is mentally and physically disabled. He decided to do what he often did after work to clear his mind. He started to walk in a meadow near the lab. Soon the meadow turned to woods then he saw his spot. A log next to a calm stream. He sat down closed his eyes and in the silence thought. He thought about his situation. Why did a smart and stocky 13 year old boy have to work in the lab for hours at a time instead of being in school with his friends. He realized that the district had said he was brilliant and after his father was executed had no problem getting a job at the lab. Why did the peace keepers have to kill his father who was his closest friend and leave him to feed his family."Dad" he whispered barely audible above the quiet sound of the stream. He thought for 3 hours then decided it was getting to dark to stay here. he started to walk back suddenly snap. Pain shot up his leg and burned like a thousand fires. He mustered all his strength to take three steps then collapsed he looked at his blue bracelet on his left wrist then said,"Go get help Dad." Ever since his dad died he felt his spirit lived on in the bracelet. then he screamed,"HELP!" at the top of his longs before becoming unconscious.
