I clutch the antler in my hand as I struggle to catch my breath. 

I feel so disgusted! Why would they say those things to me! 

‘I'm so glad you're durable. You remind me of myself. You've had a rocky start, so sorry, we didn't know it was you. How was I supposed to know? You came in here looking like an animal. They didn't even bother to tell me about what they found. They tried to kill you. Remember your doctor friend? He wanted to kill you. He thought you were another failure. Good thing I was able to get here when I could. I can't wait until you can hear what I can. In fact, tell me everything.’ 

It just wouldn't stop talking. It went on,and on. It tried to touch me. 

I got it good though. Right in the side of the head. The blood of this thing is like oobleck. Liquid at some points, a solid at others. 

‘You remind me of myself’. 

Is that why I'm here? Why I'm not dead? I'm like this thing? 

In X-Virus’ lab, I saw a lot of antlers in bags. A lot of them were pure black, or looked like it was chared. Those ‘weird liquids’ must have been involved. 

My stomach ends its aching, the liquid that had spilled out had climbed its way back inside, sealing itself up with what looks like a nice and large scar. 

I slide the antler into my pocket. It came to me, unbroken. I don't know where the other one is though. 

Ugh. I probably look like a mess right now. My shirt I got is shredded. I even messed up my new shoes. What a shame. 

“Hey! [Name]!” A voice calls out to me. I turn my head to see Toby B-lining in my direction. 

“Well, what did you think of our boss?”

He's a much larger freak than me. I knew the kind of person behind this would be out of it, but what even was that? It wasn't even trying to pretend to be a human. 

I point to my goop covered clothes. 

“I didn't see what happened. Did you kill him?”

Deciding it was safe to show him, I took the antler out of my pocket. The goop hadn't dissipated as I thought it would. 

I gesture the antler in a jabbing motion near my head. 

“You stabbed him in the head with this thing?! … Impressive. Well, if I know the boss, then he's probably somewhere eating deer guts or something, trying to rebuild his brain.”

Gross. 

“We were really scared for you, Jack almost cried.”

“I did not!” ‘Jack calls back from X-Virus’ lab. 

“Anyway, I want you to please take a shower. I know you were in a room full of dirt and literal decomposing pig guts, but this is unbelievable.”

Tell me about it, I can feel the grossness on my skin start to build up like grease. 

“Jack has one, but it's if you spill bleach on yourself and other crap.”
