7 months later. In Blue City’s hospital.

Davi’s eyes were closed. However, she was seeing unfamiliar things in her head. She thought she was having a nightmare.

Inside her dream, there was a child wearing a chemical protective clothing, playing quietly with the chemicals inside a huge lab filled with people in white.

"Sweetie, let’s go eat. Your dad is already waiting for us." A woman said and they both walked towards a cafeteria.

Davi knew the girl. She knew that she was born in that place. Her parents were both renowned biochemist of Country J and both of them were Nobel prize holder. Their intelligence and invention attracted terrorists to kidnap them to forced them to create a weapon. The little girl was exceptional in biochemistry. Maybe because she was born in a lab that she turned very interested in chemicals even though she was so young. She was a born genius in the field of science and her intelligence even scared both of her parents. She could even formulate chemical on her own treating it as a play thing back when she was just seven, freaking out her parents to death. Since that day they discovered her potential, her parents did their best to suppress her, telling her to act dumb and let no one know about her being a genius. They were afraid that the organization will find out about her and use her just like them.

The girl spent her life, trying to act dumb and secretly learning about everything that she was seeing inside the lab. For a child like her surrounded by adults, and living in a place like this, she thought that her life was normal. She felt that she wasn’t a child, she felt that the only difference between her and all the adults was her small frame.

"Hello little Rin. How’s your day?" a man asked when they sat and the little girl immediately answered.

"Hi dad. My day is the same as usual but I’m learning." She answered. Her answer wasn’t of a child at all but an all grown up adult.

"That’s great then. Just don’t forget about what we always tell you okay?" the man said as he patted her head and the girl just nodded.

"Mm. Don’t’ worry dad, I’m always keeping that in mind." She replied and the family of three continued eating. Their life was indeed unusual but they were hanging on, until the day her father started getting sick. She knew that just like all the older scientists before him, he finally reached his limit due to his exposure to chemicals and radiations. Those scientists whose health started deteriorating beyond saving were all taken away and were replaced by new. They don’t know where did they brought them but all they knew was that once they turned useless, the organization will get rid of them.

The girl’s mother started getting anxious day by day. Until one day, the little genius girl overheard a certain someone that looks like a commander talking to her parents.

"The reason why we didn’t get rid of your child was because you two promised us a successful and deadly weapon but it’s already years and you give us nothing. Did you think we don’t know that you both are purposely sabotaging your works for you to fail? Don’t take us as fools, we can easily kill you both right here right now, or were just going to kill your daughter---"

"Please, don’t do this, please don’t touch our child, give us another year. We will assure you a successful invention. We promise."

"Fine, this is your last chance. After a year and you still fail in giving us results, you three will leave this place as a corpse. But if you manage to create a successful one, we will set you all free."

Those words she heard lit a fire in the heart of the young genius. She wanted to fight alongside them, believing that they will really set them free once they succeed.

She started secretly doing her own experiment, acting like she was just playing while her parents devoted themselves in their new work, desperately trying to find ways to survive. She was always left alone, with chemicals left as her only friends in a place surrounded by four white walls.

The young girl wanted to fight. But she didn’t know how. Her secret research was slowly following the path of success and she knew it will. However, she was aware that she was running out of time and she’s losing her hope.

Until one day, her father was hospitalized. Her mother begged the organization’s leaders saying that their invention was so close to success so they agreed with her and they let him to be treated even though they already knew that it’s too late for him.

It was a silent night and the little girl was just watching her dad sleeping on the bed.

Hopelessness and despair were welling in her eyes and yet she couldn’t cry. She thought that their situation was normal and thought that everyone was undergoing the same thing as they did. She never knew that their life was hell and she wasn’t aware that somewhere, people are living just fine, far better than them.
