{First Draft Edit} God I hate needles. I swear the next time they take my blood I'm going to rip the needle out of my arm and plunge it into the nearest person I can find. See how that makes you feel huh? I wonder how they would cope with being forced into isolation and the only company you get is that dang radio with 2 stations sitting on your nightstand. Where's a man to get his sanity these days?! A lifetime of comfort they said. Lies. Sometimes I think I'm becoming color blind. Other times I think they transported me into a 20th century black and white movie. The food? Don't even get me started! A small tray with "a nutritious diet" placed carelessly with some sort of new pill they want you to try. Don't take the pill? Don't eat for a week. All they care about is the results. Seventeen years old and I think I'm getting close to kicking the bucket. Test after test after test after test. And one thing I'm sure they never put on that crap contract: once your in, you never come out. -Will (Chapter 1) In a world very much like our own, Will Seripha is a normal every day average teenage boy looking for a job, but with no prevail. However, that all changes when Will receives a mysterious job offer in the mail to test equipment from a high up industry by the name of Rorbc Tech. Although his family advises strongly against it, Will accepts the offer and enters the perplexing world of his new test subject job. But things are not what they seem. Will's 'test subject' job, was more literal than he thought, and now he is trapped in a cell with no way out. Every day, plain uniform attendants come and steal Will's blood, and when he is allowed to eat, he is given a unknown pill in which he must take unless he dares the consequences. Are there more prisoners being held captive in the complex? Is there a way out? Will he even survive the ruthless ways of Rorbc Tech? Is there something more dangerous and menacing lurking beneath the organization's treacherous shadow?
