The labs of GreyWood

Birth of GreyArrow

Graham pulls a small box of cigarettes out of his navy chesterfield coat and lit a half-finished cigarette and stood outside of Red flag laboratories. Graham was conversating about quitting his job and starting a science lab of his own with his friend Mark. While Mark was talking, A truck pulled up behind the laboratories building with the back filled with supply crates. The crates logo was by a company called RedArrow and they were mainly a subdivision of Redflag labs. Graham finished the cigarette and promptly walked inside.

Graham made it to the second floor where the laboratory was working on grocery bags with handles and in an attempt to get them patented. Graham swiftly walked to the simple office where his supervisor was monitoring us. Graham requested his boss and was explaining his reason for leaving. Graham clocked out by 5 at night and walked home with a cloud of thoughts. on the roads of New York, there will be people all over the streets till midnight. Graham has had a tough time in Chicago, where he was raised. Midnight on the streets of Chicago would always have rapists and sketchy gang members. Graham's history didn't really affect him but it would cross his mind often. In the dimly lit apartment in room 163, Graham's stained walls from his cigarettes looked sadder than before. Out of boredom and his loneliness, he finished a whole cigarette. He got tired and slept on the floor. At this time, Graham's salary was so low he had to sell most of his possessions. Graham's morning was so cloudy and depressing, he could've assumed he was living in his thoughts. Graham was still gonna have to put in his two weeks, so he brushed his teeth and locked his door. 

The whole day was pretty pointless, he just had to sign some documents and spent his free time reading up about starting companies. It seemed hopeless. But Graham found it entertaining building up false hopes. Graham clocks out and steps outside to start a new pack of cigarettes. Graham left the laboratory and went to the bank. He needed a loan. By the night of September 13, 1918. GreyArrow would be one of the greatest and most corrupt existing facility in the world.

1939. Graham was throwing out his last pack of cigarettes. He had finally quit and life was at a steady pace. GreyArrow laboratories was a new success that gave the entirety of New York a new type of hope for the future. GreyArrow was capable of quickly discovering new forms of liquids, new weapons, and mostly just inventing forms of entertainment for the public to own. There were three divisions that GreyArrow focused on. GreyArrow focused on chemistry, psychology, and biology. Although GreyArrow is in the lead in chemistry and psychology, they struggled with biology in this era. The newly-promoted scientist, John Barlowe was a chemist that dedicated his life to new discoveries. The last person to leave the lab would always be Graham and John. Graham was really deprived and nearly losing sanity. John was always trying to keep him sane and trying to make him proud. One day, completely by accident, john was testing the reaction sugar has to some old chemicals he made a year back. To his surprise, one chemical seemed to accept sugar and bond with it. John left the chemical in one of the vaults just in case something goes wrong. John clocked out and John went home. Graham was still in his office reading a book a coworker recommended him. He made it halfway through the book when he needed to ease his mind and his stress. He walked to the cabinet full of his assorted liquor and glasses. He grabbed one of his handmade glasses and poured a gin and fell asleep in his office chair thinking about all the events of the day. Graham's mind was pretty average. Graham works hard and most of the time fails. Although he works hard and doesn't care what people think, he still worries about the impression he gives to people and worries if they offended or hurt them in ways. By 3 in the morning the next day, Graham decides to open a new division only accessible to employees. He plans the design of a library so he can write stories to pass his thoughts and pray he finds a way to ease his mind without distractions. By 7 in the morning, GreyArrow was open to the public once more and Graham set to work. John was there waiting with his coworkers for Graham to unlock the door. John's first instinct was to check on the chemical he had made. He opened the vault to find the room nearly spotless (mostly dusty because they aren't maintained) with the vile sitting on the podium. Nothing was really different so John thought it safe for him to grab it and return it to the laboratory. John was thinking of getting Graham's permission to test it on a plant. Once Graham accepted, John headed to the biology division and showed the note Graham gave John to be able to take a plant. John swiftly returned to the chemistry lab and tested. John set the microscope up to see if any texture change happens. Just one drop was given to the plant in a mix of water to nourish the plant. Immediately a stunt in growth happened to the plant. The plant's exterior had a shell and it was regrowing the dead leaves it once had. John assumed it was able to heal biological errors but Graham saw it as much better. With haste, both Graham and John headed to Graham's office to discuss what to do. Graham told John to not tell anybody about what he discovered. Graham had set a blueprint down and told him that we will start human testing. John was confused but Graham just told him to return to the lab and keep quiet. John walked back to the staircase that took him to each floor in the lab. John was paying attention to each step with his mind wrapped around what Graham had told him. "Just keep quiet. With this foundation we could start human testing on the new floors I'm installing."
