Welcome to Part 12 of "Document 13", a dystopian graphic novel I'm creating with my daughter. I finally started writing again, so maybe I will stay ahead of the curve for awhile more.
—————---------------—————
The year is 2074, the world has been plunged into darkness. One girl, Sarah Doe, will learn the secrets of the dark forces that run the ruined world. With the help of a few friends, her family, and her own powers she will fight to return the world to an order not known since well before her birth. Will she succeed? Read to find out!

Scene:
Interior of a small cell. There is a metal slab serving as a bed, and a toilet in the corner. The room is completely empty and unembellished otherwise.
Sarah sits on the slab. She is wearing only a hospital gown and is softly sobbing.
S: (I’m so sorry Ruby. Why can’t I save anyone? If I get out of here I will avenge you. You wanted me to survive, so that is what I’m going to do.)
Two men wearing scrubs come in. Sarah attempts to resist them but they inject her and lay her on a wheeled gurney. They proceed to wheel her down a long hallway. At the end of the hall is a room with a small faded plaque reading “Dr. Stephen Bureau, Genetic Perfection Research Laboratory”. They take her inside.
Scene:
Interior of Dr. Bureau’s lab. It is poorly lit and filled with old equipment, mostly electronics which are left unpowered and some have been cannibalized. There are some pieces of newer looking equipment, mostly for phlebotomy. In the center is a small slab with a light over it.
Dr. Bureau is looking at a computer screen when the two men enter with Sarah. He is a stout man, with square framed glasses which contrast in a silly way with his round face. He is wearing a lab coat over a shabby beige shirt with a brown tie. His slacks are just a tad short for him.
Dr: Put her there.
They move Sarah to the gurney and strap down her hands and feet.
Dr: Leave her for now, I’ll call you when I need you. And tell Headmistress Matthews to wait for a call. No sense in having her nosing around in here before I know what I’m looking at.
Men: Yes, sir.
They leave the room.
Dr.: Well Miss Doe, let's see if you are what I think you are.
He draws Sarah’s blood and begins testing it.
