For the last hour she had listened to the faint chatter of the Experiments of Floor 1 in the lunchroom. They got a whole hour for lunch. She and the rest of the Experiments from Floor 2 – the Security Cells - only got 30 minutes to eat and talk. Rose was crouching in the darkness facing the bars, her head against the wall. Her long black hair was ragged and tangled, and she was sure that her dark blue eyes had once been sky blue, but her new powers had tainted them. It angered her that she did not even get to keep her true eye colour from her old life. From down the hallway, Rose heard a screech of indignation. She jumped to her feet and ran to the bars, trying to see what was going on. Any sort of thing that was different from the monotone of her day was a welcome distraction. As the commotion passed her cell, Rose saw that it was a pair of Scientists escorting a new Experiment to their cell. The Experiment was a boy, about 18 years of age. He was tall and gangly, and Rose noticed a pair of tiny deer antlers sprouting from his head and as he passed by, she noticed he had a small, fluffy tail. The boy was jittery, glancing about, muscles tense, but his movements were sluggish; he had been sedated. The Scientists led the Experiment down the stairs to the First floor, poking him with metal sticks to get him moving. Rose sighed and turned away, wrapping herself with swathes of shadow. None of the Scientists cared about the Experiments. They might as well have been robots, for all they did of their own free mind. No, the only thing they were supposed to do was carry out orders from the Head of the Lab. Rose clenched her hands into fists. Even thinking about The Head made her mad. Her name was Dr. Lucifer Hellion, or Dr. Lucy, as she was known. She was perfect and neat, never a hair out of place. The rumour was that she had started, owned and oversaw the Lab, and with it, all the Experiment's lives. It was possible she also ran the world in her spare time. She ran the Lab with an iron fist, making sure everything went perfectly, and even though Rose had never seen her, she knew that Dr. Lucy was behind every single flash of pain that Rose ever felt. ❜ ⁺ ・゚ˊˎ ₊❏❜ ⁀➷⋮ Welp, there was chapter 2!
