Serpent in the Beastworld

serpent
/ˈsəːp(ə)nt/

a usually large, snake or a mythical snake-like reptile, often symbolizing cunning, treachery, or evil in literature and mythology.

404 was born in an incubator inside a underground lab. She was the first successful fusion of genes of a human and a snake.

They called her a serpent, a mythological creature that can now only live under their cruel eyes.

For years, she lived through countless painful experiments. Until one day, she escaped with the help of other test subjects. They were her 'family'.

They all escaped the lab and went into hiding. For centuries it was a game of chase. Some died, others perished under the relentless pursuit.

It wasn't until one day while she escaping alone, a thunderous lightning struck her and everything went dark.

And when she woke up, everything changed. No more agents running to capture her, no more living in hiding. The world was surrounded by virgin forest and mountains.

As well as men as beautiful as the greek gods who could transform into beasts just like her. It felt like 'home'.
