Minho woke up to find himself in a cage. His memory was a bit blurry but still could make it what happened before he fainted. He looked down and realised he was in his cat form. No wonder he could fit in the small cage.

The surrounding was a bit odd. Dim lights illuminated the room. He figured it was a laboratory or some sort of factory. He could hear the sounds of metal colliding onto one another and machines working. Fear started to control his body, is this really going to happen?

"Ah, the cat is awake." he heard the familiar villain voice from behind. The cage was being lifted and he was met with a pair of eyes behind a lab glasses, staring at him.

"How does he shift into a human?"

"He shifts whenever he wants to."

The man nodded thoughtfully, "I see.. well maybe we can force him to shift?" he asked, earning a smirk from the woman. Minho shivered. He backed up but his back met with the other side of the cage. He was trapped, no way out. He remembered the woman telling him that he will die after the experiment.

Experiments are sure a torture. 

Minho stumbled when they started to walk. His claw clenched on the metal line of the cage and his eyes wandered around. There was not too much equipment in the room. All he could see was silver tables and some unknown stuffs arranged on top of it.

All of sudden the cage was being slammed on one of the tables, making Minho startled. The man earlier opened the door and took him out, placing him on a metal plate. He did not do any attempt to run away because he knew he will get worse.

The man pursed his lips and turned to the woman. "His weight is not enough."

"How much more?"

"Two kilograms."

The cat shivered when both pair of eyes turned to him.

"Then we shall give him food but only in two days."

"This cat is stubborn it's hard to do that." The female sighed while glaring at the poor cat. "Ah, I know. If you don't want to eat we could let you starve as usual. Easy."

"Brilliant." he said and received a smug smile.

"So, you poor hybrid, eat when we ask you to and don't you dare running away."

Minho then felt he was being lifted again before getting into a different cage. It was bigger than before and placed static on other piles of cages.

A bowl with full of food greeted his eyes. The man appeared in front of him. "By tonight this bowl must be empty, okay?"

Not gonna lie, his voice made him more scared.

The room suddenly went dark, only a ray of light coming from the door. However as soon as the two devils walked out they shut the door, leaving him in a complete darkness.

He hated this. Minho pulled the bowl with him and scoot until he reached at the end of the cage. He then curled himself into a small ball and hid his face.

Jisungie..

——

Maybe Jisung isn't coming to find him.

He just witnessed Jisung got into an accident to save him. He was the cause, who would even find him? And Jisung probably was in the hospital now. He did not know how long the guy would be there but as he has seen in most dramas, it would be long.

Minho stared blankly at the food in front of him. He lifted his paw and smashed it into the bowl, making a small noise that at least could accompany him alone. He left his paw there and laid his head on the cage's uncomfortable floor.

Should I not eat this?

I'd be starving to death. No experiment, no torture.

The cat's tummy suddenly grumbled. He unconsciously let out a small meow before taking a small biscuit of the cat's food in his paw.

He did not think he could survive without food.

But what's the difference? I'm going to die anyway.

After a few minutes fighting with himself the cat finally gave in. He stood up straight and bend down to eat the cat food he was given. Later on he moved to the milk. He didn't realise how hungry he was until he tasted them.

Minho really got no choice. He wondered what experiment the woman was talking about and what's the main reason he was there. He needed to know.

He finished the milk in just a few seconds. After licking his paw clean and rubbed it on his head he sat back, memories suddenly coming into him. Especially the first time he and Jisung met.

The head pats.

The scratches behind his ears.

Cuddles.

Kisses.

His emotions started to take over his body. He just got separated with Jisung less than a day but thinking the guy was in a hospital and he was going to die made him feel sad, so sad.

He would never meet Jisung again.

Minho's eyes got itchy. He slowly rubbed them with his paw and remembered how Jisung would coax him everytime he had his small breakdown. Now he's going to cry, who's gonna help him? The darkness?

Minho felt hopeless. In two days they will be doing their so called experiment and no one knows what would happen.

But deep down in his heart, he hoped Jisung would still find and save him.

The door suddenly opened and he flinched. Minho scoot back at the corner of the cage and turned on his back. The lights turned on. He closed his eyes before laying back on the cage's floor.

"You've finished this. Good kitty."

Ew.

The man opened the cage and replaced the old bowls with the new ones. "Finish this too, you'll be needing it in a few days." he snickered and left, this time letting the lamps on. Minho got up from his place and wandered in the cage. He looked around, observing the foreign equipment and spotted a window on the right side of the wall. It was high, he could not possibly get that high if he wants to escape.

Unless he shifts into his human form.

Minho reached out his paw to unlock the cage. He tried to pull it up a few times, making a noise of the metal clashed onto one another. Unfortunately his paw could not grab the handle. He snarled, taking out his claws and hook them with the lock. As he was about to pull it up he heard a noise from outside the room. Quickly he pulled his paw in and pretended to eat the food.

He was fortunate to pull it sooner because the door instantly opened again, this time an unknown guy walked in. He was wearing a white laboratory gown with a tray in his hands. Minho watched closely, noticing a syringe and a small bottle. When the man went towards his direction, he freaked out.

"It's time for your injection, boy." the voice said. He opened the cage and Minho tried to run away but the man caught him, preventing him to escape. "Don't worry, it doesn't hurt."

"Meow!!" he scratched his clothed arms and the guy just chuckled.

"Brave kitty." he said before putting the cat on the table and locked him with leather ties on his arms along with his legs.

This is not going well. It definitely hurts. Minho's head was in contact with the cold table when he felt a pain on his arm. He let out a weak meow, involuntarily giving in.
