When I got home, I quickly rushed up stairs and saw Mykail waiting for me.

“Hey,” he whispered. “How did it go?”

“Let me get changed really quick.”

I slipped into my room and changed into my pajamas, throwing my dress and boots haphazardly in the corner after retrieving the notes.

I opened my door and listened carefully to the noise downstairs. My mother had been awake when I got home, but she was already dressed for bed, which meant that she had been waiting for me.

I heard her moving around, turning off lights. I carefully crept to the door of Mykail’s room, unlocking it as gently as I could. He helped me open it slowly so as not to make any noise, a process with which we had become extremely skilled.

“How was Archangel?” he asked again as we sat on the bed.

“Boring, for the most part,” I shrugged. I fiddled with the papers in my hand. When he was sitting as well, I extended the notes to him. “But this was really interesting…”

“What is it?” he asked, taking the notes hesitantly.

“Clark found them in his book today at school,” I explained, watching his long, lithe fingers unfold the papers. “We can’t understand them, and we’re afraid of knowing who gave them to him. So, we’re hoping you understand all this. It’s gibberish to us.”

He was watching me as I spoke and then looked at the first page. He blinked at the numbers and letters, confused. For a moment, and I was afraid he would also not be able to make sense of the information.

Then he turned to the next page.

His eyes went wide and his eyes immediately went back to me.

“Where did Clark get this?” he asked sharply.

I could not answer for a few moments, too surprised by his reaction.

“Lily, where did he get these? Who gave them to him?” he asked sternly.

“I don’t know,” I said. “He said he just found them in his book at school today.”

Mykail stared at me for a moment, trying to evaluate if I was telling the truth or not. He finally glanced back down at the papers, his eyes moving slowly over the page before he turned to the next one. His eyes went wider and his jaw dropped.

“I can’t believe this…”

“What is it?”

He glanced at me before looking back at the notes and taking a deep breath, slowly letting it out. “This is very valuable, very dangerous information,” he said. “It’s information on twenty-seven experiments. I mean…this has everything. Their ward number, their cell number, the rotation they have, their general testing, their checkups, their security rounds…”

“How can you tell?”

“It’s a code used by the experiments,” Mykail said. He faced me, placing the notes on the bed. “Every week, every experiment gets some time to interact with others, to go outside and stretch their legs, so to speak.”

“Go outside?” I said skeptically.

“Yes,” Mykail nodded. “It’s also a way to test how much of a success testing is, so the scientists can gauge social interactions and whatnot.
