INDESTRUCTIBLE

LIQUIFIED CASKET

"You ok sweetie?" The motherly figure slowly breezed through her son's blonde hair, a lonely child curled up in a ball on his soft comfortable bed. "Did the kids beat you up again?"

"Yeah." The small Kyle responded. "Why are they always so mean? What did I ever do to them?"

"I don't know sweetheart, I thought the teachers would do something about it. I'll call the school, don't worry. It'll all be over soon."

She got up from the mattress and headed over to the bedroom door.

"Mom?" His soft voice spoke up.

"What is it?"

"Will I ever make any friends?"

She paused but finally conjured up the words. "I'm sure you'll make the greatest of friends, no matter how long it will take to find them. You will."

Kyle's eyes opened and bubbles cloud around his face. His body had the feeling of floating in a huge pool of water. Once the blobs dissipated he was able to see more clearly, a light green absorbent light engulfed his vision, making him squint his eyes.

"Where the fuck am I?" When he spoke he felt liquid rushing down his throat and immediately gagged, almost throwing up at the taste. He threw his arms around and cuffed his hands over his mouth. Kicking his legs he was able to float himself up before hitting the top of whatever he was in.

He started to severely panic, still not being able to see anything in the slightest. He rotated his body and kicked in front of him before he felt the cold glass encasing him. A loose bit of cables drifted and graced his nude body. He swam in front of him before he planted on the glass, pressing his face up against it he was finally able to see the outside.

A cylinder tube that was big enough to harbor a body, almost looking like a huge septic tank. Leading up to it were a huge line of interconnected cords that were plugged in at the bottom of it. He quickly connected the pieces in his head, this is the place where most likely this mad man does his experiments.

Kyle winded back his legs and proceeded to kick as hard as he could. He bounced off of it, making him drift back into the other pane of glass. It was clear that breaking it with sheer force alone wasn't going to work. He needed to do something else.

He placed his feet and bent his knees, getting ready to propel himself. He launched and bashed his head into the pane. He was not even able to tip the tank even a little bit. He now had to give up on that idea as well.

Running out of options he quickly thought up another idea. He grabbed on to the loose wire and tugged on it, trying to find out where it connected to. He traced the cable all the way to the top of the tank, where a grate prevented him from going any further.

He pushed on it, hoping it would at least lift it up a little. It only shifted to the left and right before getting put right back in place. He tugged harder on the cord again, hoping to break it but since he was floating in liquid, he couldn't get much force behind it.

Dammit! Kyle was saying to himself. He traced back the cord to the plug that was at the end of it, having a rather sharp end. He swam over to the glass, lunged his arm back with the wire wrapped around his wrist, and drove the spigot into the glass, making it crack.

Fluid started leaking out and the tube started draining. He unstuck the plug and plunged it again into the glass, finally fully breaking it. The whole tank flooded out, taking Kyle along with it. He plated onto the wet floor and the crunch of glass beneath him as he tumbled around and landed on his back facing the ceiling.

He took slow breaths as he slowly lifted himself off the ground. He looked all around him and saw the same exact tubes he was stuck in surrounding him. He couldn't even take one step forward without his bare feet touching a single line of cable. He feels a sudden chill throughout his body that makes him shudder.
