Thirteen awoke onto a to familiar table. "Do you remember when this was the first Arena when it was just you and me", Maximus said, grabbing a needle. "Run out of kids to torture?!", Thirteen shouted. "No, just hatching a plan to get more", Maximus answered, injecting the brain cell into Thirteen. Thirteens pupils went big as he started to remember things he didn't want to remember. "Don't send me back to my mom", Thirteen begged. "I'm not sending anyone back just yet", Maximus said with a sinister smile growing on his face. Thirteen relived the memory, the one he hated the most; where a date-raped his mom.

Eleven was brought out onto a separate table. "Have a good dream?", Maximus asked, grabbing another needle with yet another brain cell in it. "Do your worst, freak", Eleven said, wincing at the needle entering this neck. "Didn't hurt that much did it, Leo", Maximus asked. "Who the heck is Leo?", Eleven asked. "That's your real name", Maximus said. "You can go back to sleep now. I have a plan for all of you."

Thirteens past

When Maximus was finished experimenting on me, I knew he was sick. He had a sick, twisted, disgusting brain that was rotting. That's why he has those other two heads. Without those other two heads, he would be dead. The guard who brought me here came back with another child the next night. This kid looked like he had been living on the streets; he was extremely skinny and had pale skin I'm guessing from the cold. Maximus did the same to that kid as with me. I was named Thirteen by Maximus, I'm guessing that's the order we came in. The new kid didn't survive for one hour, he died. Maximus threw him out and later ate him. As I said. Sick.
