Lab Rats
He threw his head back again, tears streaming his pale face, as the cream burned deeper. How he was in this situation he had no idea, but he knew it was the government's fault, with their stupid 'lets save the animals and test on humans instead' idea.
"Does that hurt?" A researcher said, holding up a pen above his clipboard ready to write his reply. The boy tied to the dentist type chair whimpered and nodded; not believing that question had to be asked.
"What does it feel like? A burning, tingling sensation?"
"It just hurts! Please! Please get it off me! Why are you doing this to me?!" The boy begged, twisting in his bonds and sobbing uncontrollably.
"When you tell me what it feels like, I'll let you up and into the washroom." Was the irritable reply.
"It feels like there's a match right by my skin. It just hurts so much! Please!"
"Very well Seven zero double five, you may go." The man pressed a small button on the side of the chair and the boy instantly jumped up, hair flying in all directions as he scrambled for the small room on the other side of the testing room he was in.
Once inside he grabbed the wash-towel and, after wetting it, began to wipe the new hair removal cream off his upper thigh, then off the lower area of his leg where the other test patch was. His skin was so sensitive he was the perfect for testing these new 'for sensitive skin' products, but they were very rarely correct the first time. Meaning him and the other test subjects had a very painful time doing their 'duty'.
"Any closer this time?" A small, spiky haired boy asked as the other boy was shoved back in the small cage they lived in. The dimensions were about 75cm by 75cm, meaning there was very little room for the two occupants of each cell to move around. A lot of fights broke out in the cramped conditions, but these two boys got on and thought there were enough casualties without them killing, or getting killed by, their cell mate.
"No. Just as bad, if not worse."
"Owch! Are you alright?"
"I will be, when we get out of here."
"You know the only way we're leaving here is with the trash. When they've finished and dealt with us."
"There's gotta be another way out."
"Leave it Ryou, dun even dream. We're here 'til we die, and you know it."
"But Yugi! How can you just accept this?! You can't prefer it!"
"I don't, don't get me wrong, I hate it here, if I could leave I would, but I know I can't, so I just accept that fact."
"Hey! Don't start fighting in there! Or I'll be forced to punish you!" the guard yelled, banging on the bars of the door with his baton, pushing the little button that sent an electric shock down it. The electricity flowed down the baton and the metal bars; reaching Yugi's back wich was pressed up against the bars, making the small teen yelp and Ryou growl.
"You can't do that! You can't do any of this! If it ever got out to the public you would all be so dead! We are human beings! Just the same as you! Why do you still treat us like dirt?!"
"Can and just did, the reason this can happen is that you are the scum of society, no one missed you did they? No one cares about you, so no one will ever tell the public. The boss is very careful whom he chooses for this project, he'll never pick anyone who'll be missed. Hence why you two squirts are here."
Ryou growled again as the guard walked away, hatred filling his veins, and then he heard a door slam somewhere, a new victim had entered the nightmare.
