Hello- my name's (y/n). In this universe of society, scientists have created a medicine to shrink human beings. This project was hidden by the government for years until we were put up for sale. Yeah, I was one of the victims of this.

It was a very rainy day, and my family had gone out to go shopping. I decided to pass, because I wanted to watch the pets. I had to let them out, so I did despite the rain. They all ran back inside, and I was just about to walk back in with them before someone grabbed me by the back of my shoulder. A sharp pain suddenly shot through my back spine, and passed out.

I woke up to be in a jar inside a laboratory. Next to me were other jars, with other people inside of them. Some people banging on the glass walls screaming, others huddled crying in the center of their jar, and others standing still terrified.

There was around at least five jars on the same table as me. To the right of me was a teenage girl, who I had to guess was around 18-19 years old who just had her hands pressed against the jar looking around in shock. To the left of me was a teenage boy around 13-14 years old who had the almost exact same reaction as the girl. He seemed to be looking at her too. Were they related somehow? That doesn't matter.

A scientist then walked into the room holding stickers in his hand. He placed them on each of our jars. Mine read:

Assigned: UK, Brighton
Nano Code: #271990 (reference)

The two people next to me had both been assigned Los Angeles. So we must be getting sent somewhere. Another lab maybe?

No. We sent as pets. Or that's what I was. I was sent to a pet store with five other people. All of them were teenagers, and by the look of their stares, they weren't nice.

When we were let out of our jars, we all together were put in one empty rectangular terrarium. I was the first one to be targeted.

"I wonder what's a little bitch like you doing here." The boy said.

"I'd have to think the same for you." I hissed back.

"Do I really give a fuck?"

"You will when I do this."

I then kicked him in the shin and he fell on the floor crying. The rest of the gang charged at me and beat me up. Pulling my hair, cutting my arms, kicking my stomach, etc.

I spit blood out of my mouth and looked back at the teenage boy I kicked earlier.

"Proved my point shithead." I snarled.

He then spit at me and they walked away into the corner of the tank.

"Oh yeah one more thing... thank you so much for your brilliant portrayal of a self centered asshole in the movie of my life!" I shouted to them.

And so this cycle continued everyday. Get beat up, yell at each other, get beat up again, eat very little, drink very little, shopping time, one last snack and drink, off to bed, repeat.

Nobody would ever buy me. Usually because either the bullies cover me from the shopper's sight, I'm too expensive, or just I'm too messed up and they'd rather get a more 'clean' Nano.

Oh, that's another thing I forgot to tell you. We shrunken humans are classified as Nanos. So when you're shrunken, you no longer are considered human I guess. But it made sense sort of. If you were shrunken, it couldn't be undone, and you don't speak anymore. Yeah...

The first few weeks of being shrunken you have your voice, but then you slowly begin to loose it more and more until you can only make squeaks, grunts, and all that.
