-Third Person-

Taurtis' eyes slowly opened but immediately closed after being met by a blinding light. Groggily he sits up slowly, rubbing his eyes before looking around confused.

He was in a room, with absolutely nothing other than the bed he was sitting on and a toilet in the corner. Taurtis eyes the room confused, was this a dream? No.

Taurtis pinched himself then immediately yelped, surprised it actually hurt. Taurtis quickly stood up, panic beginning to set in.

Where was he? How did he get here? The last thing he remembered was walking around near spawn, he saw a pond or something and wanted the check it out before everything went black, then he was here.

The walls were an off-brand white color, the floor and ceiling looked about the same. Taurtis immediately paused when he heard keys gently clinging together, then a door, which he didn't notice before, opened, revealing a relatively tall woman.

The woman checked a chart ten looked up at Taurtis. Her eyes were a violet purple, her hair white as snow, matching the weird doctor like costume she was wearing.

"Good morning," She started before checking the chart again. "Taurtis." She looked back at him. "I'll be your caretaker."

Taurtis stared at her confused.

"Caretaker"? He quietly muttered to himself.

The woman nodded, "Yes, please come with me." She stated, not giving room for argument before she turned and began walking away.

Taurtis stared confused for a moment before quickly running after her, preferring to go with her instead of being in the small room.

He caught up with little struggle. Damn she walks fast! Taurtis thought, having to speed walk to keep up.

The hallway was as dull as the room he woke up in, some plants littered around but not many, as well as a bunch of doors evenly spread apart across, each one with a number.

Taurtis looked around, not that there was much to look at. His gaze fell on the doctor woman again.

"Where am I?" Taurtis asked hesitantly.

"You're in our underground safe rooms. We like to keep our guests safe." The mysterious woman responded, looking at her clipboard again.

"Who's 'we'?" He questioned.

The woman sighed and turned down a different hall, Taurtis quick to follow. She didn't reply, just continued walking.

Taurtis eyed her suspiciously, why was she dodging his question? They walked a bit longer in almost eerie silence, Taurtis hated it. The woman walked through an open door so Taurtis followed, they stopped, now standing on a balcony over a science lab looking area.

Taurtis stared at the massive lab confused, there were other people down there wearing exactly the same thing the woman beside him was. He wouldn't lie, it was almost intimidating. Almost.

"Welcome, to the Behind the Bend Laboratory."
