The first thing he felt was the biting cold, seeping into his skin. Opening his eyes, he could see that he was in a laboratory room, and like all infants, he let out a cry. He was picked up by metallic hands, and was placed not in the hands of a loving mother, but on a table. More figures, humans wearing lab coats began prodding him,, hooking him up to strange machines, and he could hear them speak, "vitals normal"... "pulse stable"... the newborn began moving around his limbs experimentally, and he grasped the finger of a near human. He visibilly cringed in fear, and began to use the straps on the table to restrain the infant. To his still fragile and sensitive body, the firm grip of the leather straps was rather painful, and he let out another cry. The humans, paying no heed to his wail of agony, turned around and they all stood at attention at the approach of a another human, wearing a white lab coat and a brown shirt and tie underneath, with black gloves and brown pants. He had combed back black hair with hazel colored eyes, and he walked with his hands together behind his back. One human stepped forward and addressed the man. "Dr. Mekkel sir, Subject #021 was birthed without incident, and is in satisfactory health"
The man known was nodded " Excellent work all of you" Mekkel stepped forward, and looked at the infant with a prideful smirk " My newest creation.., why is 021 restrained? In its current newborn state, you all do it can't harm you?"
The human who strapped down the infant shivered as he looked at 021" look at that thing.., who wouldn't restrain that nightmare?"
Mekkel looked at 021 " Nightmare.. A most appropriate codename"
The newly dubbed Nightmare looked at the hazel eyed man, who stared back with a smirk before leaving the same way he came, but not before saying "Take 021 to its cell located in block 1-A, to wait experimentation.
The humans quickly followed Mekkel's orders, moving the wheeled table through corridors and down a elevator, and into a medium sized dark room, with five lights on the ceiling,and they left him there and a automatic door closed, and Nightmare looked at his surroundings, the lights irritating his eyes. He cried out, though he only heard his echoes..
Come on…
CONTAINMENT BREACH…
Dont let them.. AGHHHH.
There's too many!
DON'T YOU TOUCH HER!
HAHAHAH! Nightmare awoke with a laugh and a jump "what a dream." He walked over to the ballistic glass on the front wall of his cell, which served as his only window and mirror. Outside his cell was a observing chamber, and the door that led into the rest of the building. Looking at his reflection, Nightmare gave himself a wide grin. One glance at him, and one could tell that he was not human. He was a slender figure, and his skin was a pitch black, his eyes a black hole like void of emptyness. He had a lipless mouth, with a row of thin, long sharp teeth going in the areas where there should be cheeks,, with no nose to be seen, and from his mouth he secreted a sticky, white drool that hit the floor with a splat. On his hands he had elongated claws, on his shoulders there were a pair of tentacles that he writhed about. He stuck out a elongated tongue that could reach to the top of his forehead if he wished. He cackled once more, and his laugh was a bloodcurdling sound. He wore nothing but simple ragged pants, and he walked back to his cot, which creaked as he sat down.
A slot opened in the the wall beside him, and out came a tray of raw meat. "Breakfast time already huh?" " ugh, but i WANTED filet mignon!" Nightmare gorged himself with delight, biting the meat off the bones, and then he saw a arm. A faunus arm, due to the fin on it. "Hehehehe, at least i got faunus, and a fish one at that, my FAVORITE" The monster happily ate the faunus limb, thinking about who the arm once belonged to "i bet this guy was minding his own business, until they snacthed him up and BAM, turned him into chow!" "HAHAHAHA" The creature laughed out loud, unable to contain the humor he found in the demise of the faunus. Finishing up his meal, Nightmare began walking around his cell, with a wide grin on his face and talking to himself. " so BORED, can't something interesting happen?." He received his answer, as a door opened up behind him. Grinning wider than before, he walked through the passageway" oh, what WONDERS await me"?
Dr. Mekkel sat in his office in a tower above the entire structure, in a black leather chair, in a brown colored room, and he pressed the button on his desk to answer the incoming call.
"Mekkel, we have a mission that requires one of your.. Assets" a male voice said.
" so soon after the last one?" "you must be finally realizing their potency"
"Perhaps Mekkel, and if your monster is sucessfull, i will see to it that you are rewarded with more funding"
"Please let the council know that Lab Eclipse only provides the best in Grimmborn weapons,and we-
" i know Mekkel, you've told me the same line before, but, you must must know, i am concerned with your ability to control the monsters, they are not like a gun, they can't just turn on you at any moment"
" Of course i understand any concerns, and that is the reason why we have five divisions posted here correct?"
"Indeed, simply make sure to never under any circumstances, let your guard down, those things pose a threat to Atlas if they were given a chance" "now, about the mission, i have received intellegence of a White Fang base near Mihlok village, and we want it gone,"
Mekkel nodded "send me the coordinates and consider it done"
"And remember, no survivors"
The caller hung up, and Mekkel pressed a button on his scroll " brief Subject #01, we have a rat hunt"
So that's the intro! I know it's short, but it will get longer in the future.
A shout out to Deviljho's Hatred for allowing me to use the concept of the Grimmborn! Go check out his stuff, it's top -tier.
