Rooty Tooty

Specimen 6:

Uuuuuuuuughhhhhhh....
It's been so long since I've even seen a person, I've just been sitting here, trying to do anything, and I mean anything, but there's nothing to do, the specimen 1s try keeping me company but they're awful, they like to bully me, they treat me like a worthless toy, and I'm tired of this shit, but I think that might be the best way to pass the time for now
I don't know if any of the other specimen are any better than these assholes, I hope they are, if they're all equally as bad then  I feel offended that I was grouped with these guys, I'm not THAT bad.. I hope

But- there is something interesting.. I've seen a red thing flash by me a couple of times in the past few weeks, I don't know what it is but maybe I'm just hallucinating, but I won't be surprised if it's actually real, I know this place well yet so little, at one point, a majority of things won't come as a big reveal to you, they may surprise you as in being startled, but they won't surprise you as in you wouldn't expect something like that to happen

Whatever, I'll just clean up my needles and wallow in my own boredom, for once, I kind of want a GLA to come in and ask me miscellaneous things for the umpteenth time, that way I'll have something else to do for once !!
And-
Oh ? Have my metaphorical prayers been answered ?
I can hear someone walking, but maybe I'm just imagining things and hallucinating again, I hate it when that happens, it's getting more annoying than it is scary, it's a major inconvenience, when I say I want something new I don't mean some weird figment of my imagination messing with me !!
I'll just wait for it to go away now, 1313 used to try and help me get rid of them but with him gone, now I don't know what to do !!

" Urmph!- " I slammed my head on the table, I heard a little gasp but I paid it no mind, I really feel like I could fall asleep right now, but at the same time my eyes just won't shut, this entire place is against us specimen, including our sleep schedules by the looks of things, it's massive pain, and I would just like to property rest for once.
I heard the floorboards creaking, the sound coming closer to me.. it definitely sounds real, but- no, I won't let it get to me, I won't look !!
" .. hola ? "
Nope. Not going to do it, I'll just rest my head on this table and do nothing
I heard more creaking, it picked something up and then ran out, I sat back up once it was gone and looked around, I huffed in annoyance, I don't know why I thought it might've actually taken anything, but maybe it is best to check, it'll kill the time even if it was for like maybe 30 seconds

Masks ? All there
Notes ? All there
Needles ? All there
Key that leads to parts of my room ? Not there
Mater-
MY KEY ?! THERE REALLY WAS SOMEONE !!
I clutched my needle and ascended away, I landed in the third room of my locale and waited patiently, I actually feel quite a bit excited ! Finally, a visitor, and new material to use, it's been so long

It took a while, but my excitement kept me entertained, I saw the door opening and in walked in a very tired, pale, aroung 5'7 teen boy, he's also got a few piercings, that means I can add decoration !! And the red hoodie and red dyed hair will work splendidly.
The boy flinched and waved in my direction, I chuckled and waved back, not moving from my spot, " hello ! "
" ... Uh.. hola.. ? " " Sorry, I don't speak Spanish " " ok- sorry I- I need- to go now.. yeah... "
He stared my down as he slowly walked towards one of the doors, I'm not that patient, he really thinks I'll wait for him to reach that door ? Pathetic
I need something
And it's not like there's any escape for him, being a doll would be better for him and for him

I've had people like him before, where they would find me in the middle of the night and look at me weirdly, and slowly and akwardly try to back up, I do freeze for a moment when looked at, but only for a moment, that's how I take them by surprise, it's a fun game to play, a game I haven't been able to play for a very long time.
Usually, teenagers are the most annoying to make into toys, but I'm desperate for something, this could keep me busy for days ! Well.. unless the generic lab assistants suddenly decide they want my stuff for free..
I would make them toys if only they were friendlier, the pain they've put me through really makes that hard to want to do, I won't just do things on the house just like rhat

I tried to ascend back up but I felt something pull my leg, the boy quickly left the room, I struggled to try and break free, I looked down and saw a root grabbing my foot.. that's.. that's new, I've nevef had that happen before, but I don't like it !!
I kept struggling and squirming, I heard the floorboards struggling, and then breaking quickly, I saw a bunch of vines and roots surrounding me, they wrapped around me and restrained me tightly, I even dropped my needle- aughhh what the hell is going ?! What is this ?! Who is this ?! Why ?!
I see a branch- it's in the shape of an arm-

Two branch arms popped up from the floor and slammed their claws into the floor, a tree broke through between the hands, and there it was, a giant tree with a carved in mouth and eyes, in the eyes was a little white orb floating around.
My was agape, this is fitting for the mansion, but treesus, what is that ?!
Have I.. seen it somewhere before ? Do I-
The color and the texture feels familiar-
It's-

" Ben "
" .. Stural.. " it's one of the specimen 1s, but what is it doing ?!
" Leave the kid alone "
' uh- okay ??? "
Stural chuckled and patted my head, oh.. just when I thought something interesting could happen.. though, I guess this is good too, a little bit worrying seeing as it's a specimen 1, though.. now I wonder if the others have this amount of power
" Look, there's a new specimen here, it's a pink cat, and I think this new one could be a good test subject "
" Huh ?? They're still adding specimen ? "
" Why are you surprised ? "
" ... " Yes, I feel stupid now
" Anywaysss.. the lab assistants wanted to let it just roam around, they don't plan to do anything with it, but we've been observing it, it's been looking for a victim to come and aid it, the lab assistants aren't aware that the experiments they did on it before it became a cat made it a little.. strong, so to say.. "
" ... Yep, sounds fitting for this place.. but why a cat ??? Why make a cat if nothing will happen to it ?? "
" Do you remember 77 "
" Too well. "
Stural simply nodded, it took me a few seconds to put two and two together-

The new specimen.. was 77 ? Now in cat form ?
Now they're just getting lazy with the new specimen

" Look, Sam can kidnap a human for you, if you want, I have some important matters to attend to "
" Wh- huh ??- "
Stural dropped me and retreated, the floorboards forming back into place as if nothing had happened, I sat there, still sort of processing what had just happened.. that.. was odd
