Mikah and Hakim's Story

They've been here longer than any of the other subjects. Sure there were some even before the twins but they're dead now. Neither of the twins can remember a time before incarceration, a large gap of their mind was missing, and it did not bother them in the slightest. A small entourage of scientist carried the two limps boys back to their dusty cell. Their cell was a special one outfitted with electric walls and a sensor. When the sensor detected more than one entity in the cell it would deliver a heart-jumping shock, until the entity was removed. The scientists stopped in front of the cell and messed with a small monitor next to the door.

"Mikhael said he wishes to keep studying this duality phenomenon so please increase the number of acceptable entities to two."

"As you wish."

After a quick set of command the cells slid open and the twins were thrown into the cell. Mikah stirred after the roguh impact and after a few seconds of realization he scrambled over to Hakim.

"Hey! hey are you alright? Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!"

Hakim growled and pushed Mikah away. Mikah smiled widely and hugged Hakim tightly, much to Hakim's annoyance.

"Get away, I'm sore."

(Just a quick footnote, they've been kept in a solitary room away from the other subjects, so few subjects would recognize them.)

The sound of gunshots snapped Mikah from his light sleep. He jumped to his feet and looked around, unable to discern the direction of the sounds. He could hear running, and he was certain someone was trying to escape. His hands wrapped around the bars and with a deep breath he yelled.

"Help! Heeeeeelp! Let us out!!"

Hakim stirred from his sleep, but did not move. He watched Mikah yell and scream for help. His voice was quiet as he spoke to Mikah.

"I doubt anyone can hear you, sounds doesn't travel far in this place."

Mikah frowned and looked back at Hakim, he tried yelling one more time before taking a step back. Hakim raised an eyebrow as Mikah took another deep breath. From his form sprang eight identical copies of Mikah. With perfectly synchronized effort all nine Mikah's yelled for help.

"We're here! someone, anyone let us out!!!"

The cage whirred to life and sent mind-numbing electricity throughout the cage. The clones quickly fell and evaporated, leaving the two originals left. Mikah fell to his knees as the electricity dissappeared, tears began to form in his eyes. He hated pain, he hated and feared it more than anything in the world.

"It...hurts..."

Hakim on the other hand seemed wholly unaffected by the ordeal and rolled over in his cot.

"Well I guess we're going to stay here, huh?"

Alex Moranne

The darts, they were making they're way to getting him down, his vision was blurred and he could barely move. Soon the scientists had caught up with him, they stood all around him while one walked up with a prod and held it high up before jamming it down into his back, electric surges going throughout his body and a light smoke coming from the spot where the prod was. Twitching occasionally as the man removed the prod and two other men walked in, they seemed more to be higher ranked scientists since they're uniform differed from everyone else's, then picking him up while everyone else walked back down the hall to the city setup they came from. As he was being dragged back to his cage, this one sudden outburst could have meant the end for him as he said, "Fools...you'll never stop any of us...united we are stronger than all of you. You think what your doing is alright? It's not, only inhumane and cruel." And then giving a small smirk, attempting to shake free but he was too weak, only able to stand unsteadily before the pushed him to the ground, his face hitting the floor as one of them pulled out a small remote, clicking the button and causing a powerful volt of electricity to flow through him, some of it arcing off of him and going to a small metal part of the floor.

A small metal piece dug into the back of his neck had beeped a few times before the volts stopped, they planted it on him in case he was blending with the other people of the facility but it was very powerful so it was used little since a dead test subject isn't too helpful. Recently he realized how it seems the scientists think of him as a little shock dummy, at least once every day they would have fun shocking him. As the other man picked him up by the collar of his shirt, Alex reached out to his, grabbing his shirt with both hands and pulling light, then using his left hand to poke the man's head with a small smile while he reached into the man's pocket with his right hand, sneaking a key out and letting it slide down his sleeve before the guard held back his right arm and thew an uppercut into his stomach. Wailing in pain he was released and fell to the ground, the two then grabbing his legs and dragging him again, once reaching the cages, Alex pulled the key from his sleeve and slid it over to the cage of the two other subjects, giving a slight smirk as he was then pulled to his cage in the corner and the one he hadn't stolen a key from opened it up and then threw him into the cage and locked it. Lying on the cold metal floor of the cage, his vision slowly blurred again and then his eyes closed, to sleep he went.
