I was not like other teenagers my age. I was different, unique, special, peculiar, profitable. That is what I always heard the humans in lab coats say about me.
They loved to prick and poke me on my body either to draw blood or inject me with what they called 'the Juice'. This Juice made me do things. Things I normally wouldn't. Like the time I killed a man using only my teeth into his mid section. I cried afterwards when the Juice wore off as I always did when they sent victims into my cage. The humans in lab coats laughed and cheered me on each and every time. They loved the vile creature I become when the Juice works it's magic inside me. To them I had been nothing but a lab rat for them to test and do as they wished just so they were entertained.
I never understood why I was there in that place. Not until now. But it doesn't matter as much now. I'm free and that's because of a girl name Garlie Jones who helped me out of that facility lab and saved my life. Not once. Twice.
This is our story.
