It's dark.

Why is it so dark?

Oh, that's right…. It's been dark for several days now…. or has it been weeks?

Ah, I can't remember….

*Sigh* I wish it wasn't so dark….

It's getting easier to see though.

However, part of me wishes I couldn't see what's hiding in the darkness.

So many horrible things.

There's one of the doctor's many scalpels… still bloody from the other day's procedure.

There's a couple of used syringes… all used on me for various purposes.

One to paralyze me so that I wouldn't struggle.

Two to pierce the centers of both of my eyes, injecting some sort of fluid into them.

There's the large metal table with the thick leather straps to hold me down.

I hate that table….

Then there's my tank…

So small and cramped…. but practical enough to suit my needs, I suppose.

Wait, what was that?

Oh…. just another mouse, come to search this desolate room for some tidbit of food.

You won't find anything here, little one.

I should know….

They haven't feed me for days now and I am starting to feel a bit agitated….

If this ridiculously heavy lid wasn't holding me in here, then I just might eat YOU, little one.

…..

Oh goodness, what on earth am I saying?

I really am turning into a monster…..

Eating a mouse, how disgusting….

But they won't turn me completely.

Of that, I am certain!

They can take my body, but they won't take my mind!

Oh, no!

They will not!

Hehehehehehehe...

Isn't that right, little one?

I will win and they will lose...

What, you don't believe me?

I'll show you! You'll see!

Oh yesssss, they will not break me…..

….

*Sigh* My eyes hurt…
