Luna stares at the other kids in the corner of the room. Thinking, wishing and begging to play with them in her mind. The kids know to not play with the kids with numbers on them. Luna has HW-201 tattoo on her neck for everyone to see. A couple weeks ago after they have arrived the kids would play with the experimented children but it came with consequence death. Every time a child ask or plays with the other children one of them gets killed whether they are experimented or not. Luna knew this would happen but now she wants a friend to talk too. The experimented children stay away from event that happen a while back. One of them tried to bully her but end up being killed by her from instinct.

Kids run to the window and look out. Luna gets confuse and curious. She looks out the window closest to her and sees the caretakers bringing in another child. The child looked like a girl from this angle. She has black hair about 9 years old and very pale. She turns her head to Luna sensing her staring. She smiles and waves at Luna. Luna hides herself by backing away from the window. The caretakers introduce the new child to the kids then they all go play and get to know the new kid. Luna stays in her corner bored and lonely wanting a friend. She looks out the window wanting to be free from her cage.

A few minutes later she hears someone walk over to her. She turns around and sees the new kid. The girl looks at her with her green eyes with curiosity. "Why are you in this corner by yourself?"

Luna just looks at her with confusion thinking that she must had been told the rules about 'us'. Luna does't respond only question as to why she was talking to her. The girl sighs but puts a smile on her face and raises her hand for an handshake. "I'm Rose, Rose Thorn. May I know your name?" Luna stares at her shock and with a little bit of fear for her.

Luna takes her hand and shakes it. "Nice to meet you Rose. My name is Luna Wolf or by my subject name is HW-201." Rose looks at her confused. Luna sighs. "I'm a test subject for a hidden organization underneath this orphanage. What happen to your parents."

Rose smiles and nods in understanding. "I killed them." Luna looks at her with confusion as to why and how. Rose understand Luna's look. "They were abusive and I had enough. I took a knife from the kitchen and stabbed them in there sleep. I made sure that the police didn't know it was me that killed them." Luna nods in understanding. She looks back at the window hopping that she will leave so the caretakers don't notice her  taking to Luna. Rose gets upset but stays. She sits down next to her. "if you are worried about me getting in trouble with taking to you. I'll be fine since I made them think I'm going to sleep from my long trip here." Luna snaps her head toward her surprised and begins thinking about making Rose her friend. Rose hugs Luna and whisper in her ear. "I want to be your friend." She lets go, gets up and leaves. Luna looks at her wondering if she made a friend.

"Maybe Rose can be my friend?" "Just Maybe?"
