Prologue
Fingers danced lightly over the hundreds name plaques as he wondered down the hallway, the soft eerie glow of the stasis chambers lighting the maniacal smile he was known for. He seemed proud and awed by the human specimens floating within the green slime, their bodies stripped to the flesh and surrounded only with the necessary tubes.
It was clear this man felt at home here, felt complete here; he had made this place and the monstrosities within. It had even been surprisingly easy for him to start over again. After all the Geostigma had marked out his victims well. Even though they were now all healed records of every infected soul were kept and the WRO were no better than his former employees for keeping hold of such lists.
His eyes brightened and his teeth flashed white as he stopped proudly before three stasis chambers; these were his collector's items, his pride and joy. The first chamber was occupied by a small slender teen, no more than fifteen from a glance, the girls eyes were firmly shut but a look of unease was plastered on her sleeping face. Long loosely braided brown hair floated around her and from the look of her stunted growth she'd been here for months at least. He tapped the name plaque lightly before moving onto the next chamber; his interest in the girl being only who she was. This child had never been contaminated with Geostigma. She was of no practical use, she was a trinket.
The second chamber also held a female only this one appeared to hold the oldest of his three collector's items, the women being at least twenty five. She was tall but flawlessly curved with a frame built for warmth and fighting, a mother's build, even after the stasis abuse. Although almost as if to spite her beauty the women floated a little uneasily, like her mind was fighting to be awake but was unable to push away the drug induced slumber he had forced upon her. He felt a wicked grin slip to his lips as he imagined her internal struggle. She jostled slightly in the tank and he watched her long black hair flail around in the gloop, his eyes transfixed for a moment as her body moved. Alas even as a hot blooded male the busty women did not hold his attention for long for she too failed to contract Geostigma. She was merely a much prettier trinket.
Taking his final few steps he stopped in front of his favourite tank, this was his prize by name and by nature. He found himself instinctively stood closer to the chamber glass than before, his eyes roaming the face of the third woman before sweeping over her body checking every tube attached into the woman. The third tank held a woman in her early twenties and aside from her apparent malnutrition she could have been an exotic beauty, with dark ebony hair floating around her face lazily. She was built to be small and agile though her frame seemed abnormally slender like every piece of her skin was moulded to it; leaving her muscles taught and her breasts pert. Her face was the only one of the three that was full of serenity as she slept. Although the bruises that marred her flesh where the tubes entered her body stated her serenity was false. This women was more than a trinket, this woman had a practical use; she had contracted the Geostigma in times long past.
As if of its own accord his voice broke the silent hum of the hallway "Lucky Girl…" his was deep but refined, a man of knowledge it seemed. And this man was certainly known for his knowledge, this was the same man who was known for murdering minds and disfiguring bodies, he was known for keeping secrets and hiding his true nature, he was known for his evil brilliance and lack of social caring, he was a man known for many things, but Hojo was not a man known for staying dead.
Authors Note:
I'd really love to hear the opinions people have so far, I know it's only a prologue but normally I usually just write fluffy one shots and I decided to try my hand at something a little deeper and a little darker (I hope) and I want to know what people think. I may or may not try my hand at writing a lemon scene in this fic too; hence the mature rating. I don't have a beta and I do try to check my writings so forgive obvious errors please.
Anyway there's only a rough idea behind this and I'm writing it on a whim at 2am in the morning. I've read plenty of "Avalanche Member Gets Experimented On" fics and I'm hoping mine will bring something new to the genre. Enjoy and review please!!
