Soulless

It was about a month after my 17th birthday, I was happy. It was late afternoon, a few of my friends had come over to hang out and study together for our upcoming exams. We were all comfortably seated on the couch, the news was running on the TV opposite us, "Scientists have discovered an new medication to treat the life threatening cancer disease, clinical trials will be run in the next few days. The medication will only be injected to those not so severely affected by the cancer. The trials will be testing if the medication affects the brain and normal human function. The injection is made up of a live virus and various liquid medications already been tested on cancer cells. Found to slow and even cure brain cancers' and various other cancer diseases." The news Lady announced. Rather intrigued by this news, we all focus our attention on he medium sized television in front of us. This was the start of the dark time and we all knew it. It was only a matter of time before they would test injectable medication on human subjects, for all we knew the outcome could have been futurising, however for the most part we knew it would be terrible.
