A Lab Experiment

Stuck In CaptivityChapter Three

Man it's so boring in here all I do is lie down on the cold hard pavement all day and all night. Could you imagine doing this same thing for 11 whole years. They never give me any water and they never let me swim in anything what do they think I'm suppose to do with no water!!! I've lived in water since I was born I'm no human but I think that dolphins are usually suppose to live in water.

I laid there just mopping around doing nothing but thinking. What could be better, turn into a human and walk around on two feet like they do?? Hey, why didn't I think of this before!!! I totally forgot that I could shift, and if I shift then I can ask for the water and then I can finally drink some and swim in some, or lie in some depends on what they decide.

You don't know how hard it is to shift I mean it hurts and all but that's not what I'm referring to. What I mean is that it actually takes a lot of concentration for it to happen if someone makes even one noise it will only let me shift half way for the first time. I've shifted fully a lot but when you're here for so long you totally forget that you can shift, because they put so many needles into you and take some of your blood then they give you some of someone else's blood. It's annoying but worth it I guess, only because they keep me alive, feed me, and give me water every time I get a needle stabbed in me.

I sat in the middle of the cell they had kept me in for oh so long just staring at the door not sure weather to try and walk to it or not. I've never walked in my human form before only swam. It may seem unnatural but it's just my nature, I was born to swim, or I thought so before all this happened. I was off in my own world thinking about what it would be like to walk and how it would feel when someone opened the creaky cell door and walked in.

I looked up and made eye contact with the man, his eyes were sparkling they weren't cold and filled with hate, it was unusual for me to see. All the men who ever came in here always had such cold and hateful stares as if they hated what they were doing. I wonder do they really hate they're jobs or just hurting people?? That makes me wonder... Just then the man who came in the cell crouched down in front of me and whispered.

"Have you ever been in your human form before?" I turned my chin up and slanted my head to the left and answered him. "Yes, I've been in this form many times. Why do you ask?" He smiled at me and stuck his hand out motioning for me to take it. I took his hand in return he answered me. "I was wondering because you've been here for what, 11 years now? And your 15 right?"

I shook my head furiously and he grabbed my head to stop me and I made eye contact with him. "No I'm sixteen. I turned sixteen today." "Oh so today's your birthday?! Why didn't you ever tell us what day it was on?" I shrugged my shoulders. " I don't know, maybe because there was the fact that I couldn't think of shifting with being stabbed, poked and tested on."

He rolled his eyes knowing that I was being sarcastic and pulled himself up off the floor. I then realized he wasn't wearing a lab coat I had jumped up right at the thought that he could be like me and stumbled into the cell bars. The unnamed man chuckled at my clumsiness as I held onto the bars trying to get my footing.

"Do you need some help? It seems as though you've never walked before." He stated rather concerned but amused while I looked down at the floor in shame. Once my gaze landed on my feet I remembered that I had nothing on and turned around in embarrassment.

While I had my back turned he toke off his sweater, shirt, shoes, socks, pants and lastly his boxers and said to me in a very serious voice and I mean serious like strait face and all. "There, I'm naked too, now you have nothing to worry about we're both even. Now will you please turn around just don't look down." There was scilence for a little while I was contemplating wheater to turn around or not.

"I will but what if you look at my parts when I'm not looking at yours!!!" I protested. "You can trust me because I don't turn that way." "You don't turn what way?" "I don't like girls." Mr.No-name stated with a bright smile on his face. I smiled back at him and asked him one last question before I was going to shift back.

"Are you a scientist here? Are you a cleaner? A doctor for sick test subjects? Oh or could you possibly be a test subject yourself?" Mr.No-name laughed at me then went back to being serious. "No I am not a scientist here why would I ever want to hurt someone else for over 11 years. I mean come on that's just plain animal cruelty. No offence." "None taken."

We stood there in science for a few seconds until I couldn't stand it anymore. "So if your not a scientist here, what are you?" "I'm a shifter my self. Just like you. I was one of the other test subjects along with my boyfriend." Mr.No-name smiled with all his pearly white teeth showing. "Your a shifter too!! You have to show me!!" I hollered excitedly in his detection ignoring the fact that he was gay. He smiled even wider if that's even possible. "Of course I can. Also my names Pete. What's yours?" I looked at him sideways as to ask 'I thought you would know' but answered anyway. "To be honest I don't have a name at all, my mother never gave me a name she just called me baby or baby girl, never by a name. So I don't have a name the scientists just call me her or she. No one ever gave me a name." "Hmmm... Would you like to have one? And would you also like to have a family?"
