We always get bored as soon as we start and I always have to leave. sad
Hey Emmy!
Ok, um it's long, so I'll just post the section where I got stuck. Don't worry how it starts from no where, there's a part before it.
I woke up to a sharp pain in my neck were they had taken out the needle. I opened my eyes, and the first thing I saw was two rows of bright white teeth curved into a smile. A woman was bending over me, smiling menacingly into my face, “Awake now are we?” I jumped when she spoke, I was awake, and everything was coming at me fast. What had happened, what it had caused, and most importantly, what was going to happen? I looked around, but I couldn’t make out anything farther than the 10 inch radius of the small light bulb that acted as the sun. All I could see was me and her, her and me. I was scared out of my mind, my parents had been coaching me on how not to get caught for as long as I could remember, but they had never taught what to do if I was caught. I would have to figure it out myself, I would have to do it alone…..I would have to accept the fact that I was screwed. The woman stood straight up, her face becoming hidden in the darkness, “Good afternoon Ms. Read.” I kept my head down, I was scared to look at her, “I-I I want to go home,” I whined almost tearing up even though anything had yet to occur. The woman chuckled, “That’s not going to happen, not until you’ve been purified.” “I don’t want to be purified!” I cried. The woman bent down into the light once again, this time I was able to make out her face. She was much younger than I expected, I had imagined her to be an old witchy looking shrew, but she looked…nice. She was beautiful actually, of course this was ruined when she spoke, “That’s just it deary, you don’t know what you want. You’ve been in the dark so long, now it’s time to come out,” I shook my head, she continued, “you’re a poor little b*****d child that has been brought up in an unnatural family. You have been taught to enjoy things that others find unpleasant, you’ve been molded into an emotionless golem that others may control.” I yanked at my hands trying to pull them from the chains that bound them to the armrests of the chair in an effort to cover my ears, but no matter how hard I tried they wouldn’t budge. She kept talking, “You had no chance in the real world-“ “No!” I screamed, she ignored me. “that is until you came here, here we will protect you, take care of you. All those horrible things that your parents did-“ “No! They didn’t do anything!” I choked, tears running rapidly down my face. “You can forget it all, and start over.” “No, please! I don’t want to start over, I want my mom and my dad and my sister and brother and they want me and-“ And then she had had enough, she slapped me once hard enough to get me to shut up. I’d never been hit before; no one had ever touched me. I was astonished, I couldn’t look at her. She grabbed me by the chin and forced my eyes into hers, “No one gives a damn about you. Why would they leave you lying face down in the middle of the ground if they did care? That would be stupid, are you parents stupid?” She waited as if she expected me to answer, I didn’t. So she slapped me again. I was too overwhelmed to talk, I just sat there sniffling like the big baby I was. She took in a sharp breath of disgust then headed towards the door. She opened it halfway, and then without turning around she said, “What did I expect, pain won’t do anything to you, you’re used to it.” Then she was gone. * * * *

Yup, like how to start it.
I tried staring both of these ways.
* * * * Three hours later the door opened again. The bright white lighted splashed across the ceiling and the floor blinding me in the process, but I didn’t need to see, I knew what it was. A guard approached me his face stone cold, he obviously didn’t want to be there. I smiled up at him knowingly; I didn’t want to be there either.
I was alone. It was dark. I was scared. So I cried. I cried so much it cooled me off more than my sweat. I wanted to hide myself; curl up in a ball, tighter than fetal position, be beamed back to my mommy’s belly, never have to defend my self, be protected, cared for, loved, not alone. No, I didn’t need that; I just needed not to be alone. In my mind I begged the woman to come back, she had hit me and made me feel so horrible, but at least I wouldn’t be alone. Left with the horrors in my head. Options played through my head. Maybe they would let me out, maybe they would only keep me in for a few minute, maybe they would keep me there forever…

I like the second one better. It makes her/he seem more...... weak. More like the character in the previous paragraph.

Maybe switch the two and put them together? And instead of saying "Three hours later..." you could say "After what seemed to be hours later..."? I don't really know. Never been much of a writer.

I myself write, too. Although I write more militaristic stories because I know a lot about guns, war, and other militaristic things.
I could give you an idea on where it could go from there, but it would depend if it is a girl, which it seems more likely to be, or a boy.
Also go back on GIM Free.
