Story: Ever since her creation, Iris had known something was wrong with her. The other experiments avoided her, the scientists and guards were wary of her, and no one dared to get close. Iris had always been friendly, but the others all saw something she couldn't: a dark shadow that followed her everywhere. It was like a black husk of Iris, and so that's exactly what they called it. Husk. Over time, Husk had begun to drain Iris's life and grow more powerful. Eventually it became strong enough to take control of its living counterpart; and so it did. It took control and make her commit horrible crimes that would get a human jailed for life. Torture, murder, kidnapping, cannibalism... All of it. And Iris had no idea what happened when she regained control... One dreadful day, the laboratory caught fire, and only then did Husk reveal itself to the young Lupitor. "WHY?!" Iris screamed, her voice barely audible over the roaring flames. Husk replied with a shaky and maniacal laugh, a horrifying grin on its inky black face. But it did not speak. It made no other sound. It just stared into Iris's eyes, translucent red drool hanging from its open jaws. Finally, her patience snapped, and she charged the shadowy figure, knocking it into the flames. The creature screeched and writhed, letting out horrible gargling noises as its body melted into a black puddle. Iris collapsed, unable to stay standing after inhaling so much smoke. Her eyes closed, and she knew she wasn't going to make it out of here, but at least the shadow was gone. Or so she thought.
These two are Husk (left) and Iris (right).
