What They Stole From Us

The Beginning

The lightning. Again. It doesn't hurt anymore. Not really. Pain has long since departed my life. 

"Crank up the volts. We need him to feel it, people!" the Head Researcher says. I don't like him. 

They hit me with the strongest lightning they can. The lights begin to flicker, then they die. Alarms blare. None of it matters to me. The lightning is gone. Maybe I can finally get some rest...

I'm awoken by a girl with a long mane of blond hair. She's carrying me through the halls, yelling words that don't make sense. Five other girls and two boys find their way through the facility with us. The boys are carrying two of the other experiments, and a ginger girl carries another. 

Only us four? 

I want to be angry. But I can't. Too tired. Nothing makes sense. It's all just a jumble of nonsense in my head. I can't focus. Maybe I should go back to sleep...

"Stay awake! Dude, I get that it's probably really hard, but you need to stay awake!" the blonde shouts. Her words are the only thing that make sense in my head right now.

One of the experiments is running alongside the girl carrying me, and they shout something that doesn't make any sense. 

We make it outside. 

Outside? Yes, outside. This is what it looks like, I think. It's been far too long. 

A ship floats down from the sky, and when it lands, everyone rushes into it. Us four experiments are huddled together in a corner while our rescuers converse amongst themselves. 

I fall out of my seat, my vision fuzzy, and my entire body numb. People rush towards me, trying to help me. 

Where was I again? Right, a ship. 

Another experiment has their hands on my chest. It feels...comforting. 

A girl calls my name. She sounds...so far away...

Right. Stay awake. That's what the blond girl said to me. 

I fight to keep my eyes open, and it shows. 

Eventually, we land. A team of doctors and nurses rush me to an infirmary, along with the other experiments. 

A warm hand on my forehead. "You can rest now." says the blonde girl. I smile at her. At least, I think I do. My eyes slam shut, and I drift off to sleep. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I wake up in a white padded room. The other experiments are nowhere to be seen. I hear a door explode outward, and an experiment rushes over to my room. They punch the door in, and shake their bleeding hands. 

I look up at my savior. She's the experiment that was running beside us when we were escaping. 

"W-was it all a dream?" I ask groggily. She shakes her head. 

I stand unsteadily. The girl beside me is ready to catch me if I fall. I successfully stand up, and the two of us make it out of the room, only to be stopped by the girl who saved me. 

"Hey, you're up and about!" she exclaims cheerfully. "I'm really sorry, guys, but I'm gonna have to ask you to stay here. It's just for a couple tests-"  

At the word 'tests' I tense. An odd feeling fills me, and a stunned noise from the blonde in front of us worries me. 

"H-hey, stay right there. What you're about to go through might be REALLY uncomfortable, so just...hold still, and I'll get Ozpin!" the blonde girl shouts, racing off. 

"H-hey, you'll be OK." says the experiment next to me. She is glowing, and worry fills her eyes. I neglect to mention it. 

The blonde comes back some time later, followed by a man in a green suit. 

"It appears you two are stronger than the others we saved. They have all, sadly, passed away. It seems their system couldn't handle anymore." says the man in the suit. 

"Ozpin, I assume?" asks the experiment next to me. The man nods. 

Suddenly, I double over, feeling like my insides are trying to bust out of my torso. A dark blue light emanates from everywhere on my body, and I feel everyone in the room relax slightly. I hear people talking, but none of it makes sense. The voices in my head beg to differ, and say that everything makes sense, but I can't hear properly. 

The voices in my head scream at me, I feel hands on my chest, head, and back, and voices attempting to reassure me. I think, anyway. I feel myself being lifted into the air, and placed on a cot. I shut my eyes, and everything stops. For now, anyway. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I awaken to a pair of silver eyes staring at me, my nose almost touching the girl's. She sits up and cheers. She then leans forward, and presses her body into mine. 

"Relax, hun. I'm not going to hurt you." the girl giggles. She has short, dark hair with red tints. She places her head next to mine, and whispers into my ear. "But, I might do something else, if you want to." 

Her warm breath tickles my ear, and her hands roam freely over my torso. Her hands move lower and lower, until- 

"RUBY ROSE!!!!" a young woman screams. The girl on top of me perks up, a playful grin on her face. 

I pass out again. There are many instances like this. I wake up, stay awake for maybe five minutes at most, then pass out again. 

Finally, I wake up and stay awake. There is nobody around, but there is a change of clothes nearby. A hoodie, cargo pants, and a T-shirt. I tug them on, and slowly exit the infirmary. 

The female experiment is waiting in the hallway. She has a white shirt, a pair of white pants, and white shoes on. She gestures for me to follow her, so I do. 

Ruby meets us in the hallway. She has a flirtatious look on her face as she grabs my arm and leads me to another room. Inside is an armory. An absurd amount of weaponry sits in this room, and there are dozens of dismantled weapons sitting on tables. 

Ruby pulls me around the room, pointing out different weapons to me. Ruby stops, seemingly for no reason, and drags me over to a locker. After a moment, I see why. The whole thing is shaking like something inside is trying to escape. 

Ruby yanks the door open, and a flintlock pistol flies out, along with a rifle. Ruby and I stare at the guns in wonder as they drift into my hands. Ruby nods, and drags me over to a firing range. She points to a target at the end of the range, and I nod. 

An instinct fills my mind, and I begin firing the flintlocks, one after the other. Fire the pistol, spin it, fire the rifle, spin it, fire the pistol, spin it. 

Before I know it, the target is riddled with glowing holes, and I'm less than a foot away from it. The rifle and pistol are both glowing red-hot, and my hands are covered by dark blue, armored gloves. 

Ruby nods. "That was really hot, hun. Wanna just skip the tour and have sex?" Ruby asks, encircling her arms around my waist. 

"Tour, please." I manage. My face is practically steaming. Ruby pouts. 

"God, there is no way you are straight. Who says no to sex?" Ruby grumbles. She guides me around, eventually taking me to my dorm room. 

When we walk inside, Ruby locks the door and pounces on me. She pins me to the bed, and ensures that I can't leave. 

"This'll be a long night, sweetie. Hope you're comfortable~" Ruby purrs, undoing her corset. I relax, and let her do anything she pleases. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The next morning, Blake stands outside my dorm room. 

"We have thin walls. Ruby likes being gagged, so maybe try that next time?" Blake snarls, throwing me a ball gag. Ruby walks out at this moment, and seeing the ball gag, drags me back into my room. I sigh, and prepare myself again.
