May 17th, 2016

"Lynn?! Lincoln?! Don't-"

They were already out of sight. Leni kept her eyes on the fire. Lily was crying in her arms. "Mom... Dad..." She whispered

Lori carried the hurt Luan out of harm's way. "My leg... My leg's bleeding." Lori set Luan down on the grass. Luna looked onto their remaining siblings. "Don't worry... We'll get you help, just-" The crackling fire kept making its hellish noise over them.

Lori called out to her sister, who was dangerously close to the fire. "Leni? Leni! Come here!" Leni did not move . "LENI, YOU'RE TOO FUCKING CLOSE!" Leni broke from the trance.

"They didn't make it..." Her voice was equivalent to the sounds of a squeaking mouse.

"Now's not-" Lori stopped mid sentence. "Leni, don't think. For one second, don't think. You have to be strong. Luna wrapped herself around the crying twins. "Its- Its going to be fine. We're here. We're here..."

Lisa removed her glasses.

"Lisa, is there even the tiniest of chances that-?" Lisa turned to Lor, the serious expression on her face destroyed the last of her hope. Lori gritted her teeth, now trying to hold it in. "Mom, dad, our pets, our home, and-"

Luan jumped up and limped back towards the fire. "LUCY!" Everyone turned to the house, pausing the tears they were unleashing at this second. Lori pulled Luan back. "No! Its too late. We can't save them..." Luan placed her head on Lori's shoulder.

"Where did Lynn and Lincoln go?" Luna turned back to the direction the two ran off in. "They're gone, dude. Just gone."

Lori then grabbed Lisa, and lifted her high. "Lisa, what did you do? WHAT DID YOU DO?!" Lori went to rage mode.

"I'm not responsible! I was reading a book, and then I smelled the smoke. I alerted you guys is all I did! Screw yourself, I'm not staying here!" Lori set her back down, and Lisa looked at everyone, who did nothing. She quickly turned away, running the opposite direction the other two went.

"Lisa!" Luan's cry did nothing.

"Lori, we have to take Luan to the hospital. She looks seriously hurt." Lori was thinking of the plan here. Luna looked to Luan's wound.

"Someone has to stay here. Tell them what happened."

Leni spoke up. "I'll do it. You can't take everyone. I'll watch the twins here." Lori hesitated, not agreeing.

Lori gave Luna a glance, that said it should be Luna to stay. "Leni, is that really-"

"FOR FUCK'S SAKE, LORI. I'M NOT A CHILD. I CAN DO THIS."

The twins covered their mouths upon hearing Leni curse, a real shocking moment for most of them. Lori was caught stuttering. "O-Okay." Leni lowered her tone. "I'll be fine, Lori. I know what to tell the cops." The two sisters hugged. "But I'm taking Lily."

"Lori, we have to go." Luna helped the limping comedienne to Vanzilla.

"Can-Can we stop at- aghhh-IHop?" Luan began to laugh.

"Dude, what the hell...?" Luna climbed in alongside her.

"We'll find the others later. Its not like they'll leave town or something." Leni nodded. "Luna, you'll take Lily." She handed the baby to Luna, after Luan was placed in a safe position. "Where's her binky?"

"Its in the..." Lori looked back at the fire.

"Just go. Don't look back." She told Lori.

Vanzilla left the house, and Leni and the twins were out of sight. Only Luna herself kept looking at the fire, and noticed people looking over and pointing to the fire. Among them was no sign of Lisa. Lori drove faster than she usually drove.

"Ugh, my leg. My leg hurts so much." Luan moved it around.

"Luan, stop moving it! I've already destabilized the bleeding."

The comedienne tightly gripped the edge of the seat, breathing in the uneasy fashion. "How long until we're there?"

Lily was cooing in excitement now, giggling as the rollercoaster of the van kept going to Royal Woods General Hospital. Luna stroked Lily's head, smiling at her, but not knowing if it was a real one.

"Hang in there, Luan."

The cries of her pain turned to laughter, as if some divine entity flipped an invisible switch installed on her.

"Dude, are you okay?" Luna gave a worried expression. Luan stopped and turned to her older sister. "Its just too unreal. But the pain, its..." Luna understood. "I know, dude. I know."

"We're almost there. Just a little longer, Luan."

Lori quickly got out, after parking. She helped Luan into the hospital. "Can I get some help?!" Two doctors passing by stopped to help them.

"This way, please!"

The two doctors there led Lori into a solo room. One of them helped her set Luan onto the bed.

"Ow, ow, ow!" Luan moaned in agony. Luna had now reached the doorway, staring at Luan while still holding the infant.

"What happened to her?"

"House fire, it- Everything was falling, she- Is she going to be alright?"

Luna was spotted looking on. "Are you both also relatives of this young woman? Come in, come in."

Luna made her way beside Lori.

"Will she be fine?"

Luan's big red gash was being rubbed about. She twitched at the touching.

"We're going to do the best we can for you. Who here's the eldest of the three?"

Lori raised her hand.

"May we speak outside, in private?"

Lori and the taller doctor headed out, while Luna watched the other one take another observation on Luan's leg. She was as tall as Luna herself, and looked more like a super model, rather than a doctor. Luna, embarrassingly but bisexually, was looking at how pretty she was. The blue uniform did not suit her, however.

"You'll be fine, sweetheart."

Luan moved her leg again. "No, you have to rest."

Luna noticed the nametag when the doctor turned to her. K. Kreuk.

"Take a seat, I'll be right back." She left the room, with no sound apart from her foosteps creating silence.

Luna sat down against the wall. Lily was laughing happily, too innocent to understand what was going on. She pointed at Luan.

"Ooooaaaan." She giggled, holding her arms out and opening and closing them repeatedly.

"She wants me to hold her. Can I?"

Luna looked to the wound. "Just be very careful. It'll be for a bit, and then I'll take her back."

"That's fine."

Luna carefully set Lily in Luan's arms. The happy infant booped her nose, making Luan smile a bit. "I love your happiness, Lilster. Darn, its too cute."

Luna chuckled. "She's going to be innocent, for her golden years. I wonder what she'll grow up to be."

Lily pulled at the flower on Luan's shirt. "Fooowaaah."

"Yes, its a flower, Lily." Luan joined the baby in laughter.

"Sweet, little Lily, we can count on you to make us smile again."

Lori cut in, closing the door behind her.

"I'm going to find the others. Luan, Luna and Lily will stay here with you." Lori then directed to Luna. "Luna, let me know what the doctors say about here. I won't be long." She immediately rushed out before Luna can manage and form a reply.

Later

Luna remembered she had her phone with her, when it rang. It was Lori, and Luna carefully pullef out her phone while holding Lily in her arm.

"Hey, what's up, dude?"

"What's up? What's up?! I'll tell you what's up! Leni and the twins aren't where we freaking left them! No, they're gone! UNBE-FREAKING-LIEVABLE. ONE JOB, SHE HAD ONE JOB!"

Luan's eyes opened up. "Whu... Luna, what's going on?" She moved her head slightly.

"Okay, Lori, where-Where are you now?"

"I am looking everywhere, for all six of them. The house is locked by police. I'm not sure if Leni stayed long enough to talk to them. Damn it! Look, I'm going to keep looking for them. And I want you guys to not move, not at all! You got it?!"

"Yeah, we do. Alright, Lori. I'll see you back here." Luna hung up.

"Luna? What's happening?"

The rocker remained quiet.

Why is everyone running? We're supposed to stay together...

"It was Lori. She went to pick up Leni and the twins, but they weren't there. So she's going to try and find them."

"No... Them, too?"

Luna grew quiet, with little Lily still asleep.

"Leni and the twins... They could be..." Luan tried to lift herself up.

"No, stay down. You need rest." Luna was rubbing baby Lily's back as she yawned, and Lily returned it.

"Luan, could you hold Lily for awhile? My arms are getting numb. I'm gonna get us something from the vending machine." She carefully set the sleeping baby into Luan's welcoming arms. "Don't take too long..."

At the end of the hall, the rocker took out a dollar bill. "What do I want?" She scanned the goodies inside. Various goods of all sorts, and she didn't know what to get. She decided with a bag of cool ranch Doritos. A-5. In that moment of satisfaction, did she watch the coil spin, but then stopped, before the chips fell.

"No..." She tapped on the glass repeatedly. It didn't work, so she attempted to shake it. The bag was still stuck. "Come on!" She then proceeded to punch the glass, getting angry. The hall was nearly empty, except for a man coming down the hall. Luna didn't care. "Damn it!" She then used both hands. "Why? Why? WHY?!" She let her anger get to her, before the pain replaced it.

Luna gave in, falling to her knees and making a river for ants. Behind her, a few doctors had begun to gather around. The glass itself was shattered enough to be noticeable.

May 20th, 2016

"Here comes the airplane, here comes the-"

Lily opened her mouth, being given the baby food by Luna.

Luan was faced the other way, still on her bed. Luna wasn't sure if she was awake or not.

"Luan?"

Nothing.

Its been three days already. Luna's phone had died, from constant looking to see if there had been a message left from her. Maybe there was, but there was no charger around. Luna was running out of the patience she had left.

"Luan, I know you're awake."

The comedienne moved just a little, but enough to prove Luna right.

"You've been silent for the past few days. Do you... have any good jokes? I could use one."

Luan looked her way. "I don't feel in the mood for... Jokes." She then looked forward and closed her eyes. "Not until this is over, not until I wake up."

"Wake up? Luan-"

"Don't!" She leaned up and pointed at the rocker. "Don't you tell me this is real! Don't you tell me we're here! Don't ever say our family's been broken! Its not, I'm just having a bad nightmare, but it'll be over when I wake up..."

Luna got up, still holding Lily, and stood beside the prankster. "You had nightmares? Before, I mean."

Luan looked at her leg, unresponsive.

"Luan, do you have them at a daily basis?"

Luan gave out a sigh, finally answering. "I have nightmares, yes."

"Why didn't- I didn't know about this... Gee, Luan. I'm-"

"Its not your fault, they've been happening this year. Its the same thing, there's one of us hurt, and- I'm sorry, I won't go on further. You always have your headphones, and on some occasions, I've woken up in the middle of the night. I can't even look at the footage I set to record. I'm really afraid to see myself in those horrors."

Luna grew worried for her, and also developing guilt for not even knowing in the first place.

"But if the tapes were lost to the fire, I mean, if this is all real, then I say good riddance."

"Geez, Luan... I can't stand this."

"Stand what?"

"I don't know what to do here. After you're healed, where will we go? And what's taking Lori so long? I think I should go around, and-"

"No! You're not going anywhere! I need you here!"

"What if something happened to Lori. We might be on our own."

Lily moved about in Luna's arms, softly yawning.

"I need to find them. Leni, the twins, anyone I can find."

"That's why Lori isn't here! She's gone to-"

"SHE SHOULD BE HERE! SHOULD HAVE BEEN!"

Lily was startled up close. Luna looked to her eyes, seeing the sprinkling fear within them.

"Its fine, its fine, Lily. I won't shout again."

"Poo-poo?"

"What if you leave, and don't come back?"

"I know to do that, Luan. But I've gotta find them. I've gotta..."

"Lori will be back, and they're all be here. Wait a little longer, please!"

"I'm done waiting."

Lily placed her hands in front of Luna's face, poking around.

"Hey, you stop that, little dude."

Lily laughed playfully.

"Luna, come on. I need you here... She needs you here. Don't make me get up."

"Don't get up at all. But..." Luna sat back down. "I wouldn't be long. Not like her. I'll try to call Lori from a payphone. I'll see what happened, okay?"

Luan's eyes flickered around, and that was what Luna needed; to convince the comedienne.

"Don't be long... Give me Lily."

Lily gave Luan a loving hug upon joining her. "Aw, she loves me." Luan kissed her forehead. She then held her pinkie out.

"What's- Luan..."

"Do it. That way I'll know you won't be long."

Luna made the promise, one that was fated to be broken, unbeknownst to them both.

June 14th, 2016

Luna lost track of time. She knew it was already days past. A few too late, after being informed that Luan and were gone. She was already outside, and still letting it sink. That was it, Luna was alone.

She wandered aimlessly through the cursed town. It was around nighttime when she headed to the park, and before her, was a crowd of music goers. There was something like a concert actually playing. Luna came closer, and adjusted to the rhythm of the tunes being played.

She enjoyed herself, for the first time since the fire. After it was over, mostly everyone had left. The band, made up of three people were already setting up to leave. There was a big, chunky man with an attire similar to that of a motorcycle gang member, a blonde girl, teenage at most, with a blue streak of hair, and the attire of a blue sweater and clay-red pants, which made her feel like she belonged in the 80s, and the last one, a natural bad boy, looking like a greaser of an ancient era, one that your sister couldn't resist to sleep with.

"Hi there."

The blonde looked up as she lifted one of the amps. "Oh, hi there! Could you, uhh...?"

"Oh, yeah, dude!" Luna helped her to carry the amp back to the black van on the edge of the park.

"I loved your performance."

"That's so sweet, thank you!"

"Yeah, dude!"

They heaved the amp inside. "Jesus, I need to lift. Anyways, thanks for that. I suppose you'd like an autograph, right?"

"No, actually." Luna didn't know what she was after at the moment. "I just thought I'd compliment, is all. And help."

"Ah. I see. So, what's your name?"

"I'm... Luna. Luna Loud."

Blondie held her hand up. "Sam Rush is the name."

"That's Chunk, the big guy and then there's Vick."

The other two were putting the other equipment away. "I follow up on a lot of bands. How come I've never heard of this one?"

"We're new, but we've already built up a big enough fanbase already. We've performed three times before this."

"Oh, that's neat, dude. Do you guys perform around here or...?"

"Well, we go wherever the wind takes us. We started back in Chicago. And we're going around, trying to get ourselves booked. You know?"

"Yeah, I actually do." Luna took the guitar Sam played tonight, and hooked it to the generator inside the van. "May I?"

"Sure."

Luna strapped in on, and began to play a small piece of Master of Puppets.

"Why, Luna, I didn't know you played guitar."

Luna stopped at halfway through. "Years of practice."

"Pretty good. You uh... Listen, we're short a person. Chunk there, he's good with the guitar, but his... Well, fat fingers, it makes him a bit hard for him to play. He's better at drums, and we've been hoping to find someone good. We haven't, until tonight. Guys, come over here!"

"She want our autograph? Cool, she has the right idea, in case it'll be worth something in the future."

"Gotta get yours ears check, if you didn't hear that."

Vick crossed his arms. "One girl's enough. Why do we need two?"

"Ugh, sexist. Chunk?"

"Aye, the lass does display such natural talent with the guitar. Whaddya say, Vicko? She's grand."

"Hmm, play something hardcore."

And with that, Luna had begun to play Let The Bodies Hit The Floor.

"Ain't that something. Girl knows her stuff."

"C'mon Vick. We need another. Why does gender matter here?"

Vick scoffed. "Whatever, just don't fuck it up."

He turned away for a smoke.

"What's with him?"

Sam shrugged. "Personal thing behind the scenes. He's still mad about it, too. You'd think he'd forget."

As everything was loaded back inside, Sam pulled Luna into the van. "Welcome to NoIze Complaint. Patent pending."

"So..."

"We rent motels, and leave after the gigs. We've left our current one, and- Wait, you don't have family here, do you? I'm sorry, but we're on our own. Vick's been expelled from his school, and he wound up here. Comes from a family of war heroes or something. You know, like vets. Chunk's the oldest, left on his own."

"How'd you get here?"

Chunk looked into the front mirror, clearly looking at them both.

"Um, well, you see..." Sam leaned into her ear, and whispered.

"Are you, really? And they kicked you out for that?!"

Sam nodded and smiled at her.

"So, enough of us. Where do you come from?"

"In general, I guess a broken family. Its the right answer, with severe details here and there. Its all but pretty."

Sam placed her hand on Luna's shoulder. "Sorry to hear that."

"I have siblings, just... I think its now complicated."

"I'm a solo child, so I wouldn't know, and neither does Chunk. Vick comes from Arizona, siblings aplenty. Closest sibling is his younger brother Vince, the only one Vick truly misses, but he won't acknowledge it."

"You squeal too much, Rush."

"What, embarrassed?"

Luna chuckled. "So, where's the next gig?"

"We're working on that. We're just going to the next town over. And everything will set itself up for us."

February 18th, 2021

Luna shut the door behind her, in anger. "How could they leave?! Damn those two!"

Sam grabbed and pulled Luna into her arms. "We can find a way to make this work. Just you and me. Another thing is..." She pecked Luna's lips. "We can be alone at last. Screw them, we don't need them, babe."

Sam, holding Luna's hand, went back inside the room. Luna was already liking where this was going. She didn't hesitate to shove her lover into the bed, and went over her. Luna felt Sam's hands run through her brown hair, while Luna's lips made slow contact around Sam's neck.

She felt her lover's breasts hit her own pair, and was immediately turned on by the feel. She unbuttoned the blue sweater the blonde had on, and helped her remove the white shirt, revealing her pink bra underneath.

Luna kissed her way down to right above Sam's hips. Sam was quick to act, removing the rest of her clothes, save for her bra and bikini, also the same pink color.

At this point, Luna herself undressed, getting fully naked. Sam ran her hands all over Luna, and played around with her breasts the way a kitty plays with yarn. She squeezed them softly, all to the sexual delight of the rocker.

She returned down to her, and the two locked onto a deep kiss, while Luna was digging under her bikini, and entered her private part. She pulled away to moan loudly. Luna pulled up Sam's bra, revealing her perfect pair of boobs, and Luna could not help herself but crave the perfect nipples.

As she grinded them as painlessly as she could, she felt a liquid flow through the fingers she had inside of Sam.

"Ohhhhh!"

Sam was being explored by the lovely moon. Luna aligned her vagina with Sam's, and began to rub up and down on her.

"LUNA!"

"Yell it, yell it loudly!"

And the two proceeded to have sex for the next nine minutes.

April 8th, 2023

"Three hundred this time. Damn it, not enough."

"Any other gigs?"

Sam shook her head. "We're washed out. There's nothing we can do."

The two excited the bus. Sam carried off her guitar, while Luna had the amp. "This can't go on anymore."

"I know, babe. This isn't working anymore..."

They reached a nearby Super 8 Motel. "Here's fine."

"I can use the rest."

"Those idiots, they just had to leave because-"

"I don't believe him, up to today. Vick's family, dying in some explosion. That's farfetched. Besides, I'm pretty sure he wanted out. What an asshole."

"None of that, Lulu. Anyways, we've made it this far. It ain't over. Not yet."

Luna placed the amp right by the door.

"Got us a discount, flirted with the manager."

"Oh... That's... Cool I guess."

Sam kissed her neck. "Hey, now. You know I love you, and I'm not trying to hurt you."

"I know that, its just... I don't know how to feel about that."

"Aww, you're cute when you're hurt. Fun time?"

"Actually, I'm tired as fuck. My feet are jelly. I'm crashing, see you tomorrow."

April 10th, 2023

Luna found herself on the bad end of the glass. The small white room was enough to house the poor rocker. She placed her face against the glass, trying to find out where she was. All she managed to deduce was that she was in a floor of some building. There were men in white lab coats, walking here and there.

"Hey, what's going on?! Why am I here?!"

She banged at the glass.

"WHAT IS THIS?!"

Finally, a greenish gas was released from the upper corners of the back wall. Luna pressed herself against the wall, covering her mouth shut. "SAAAAAM!"

The gas entered her system, and made her drowsy. She struggled to keep her eyes open, falling on her side. The glass panel slid upwards, and before Luna finally succumbed to a forced happy nappy, four men in the lab coats entered inside. One of them held a needle full of an orange substance, and that was what she last saw, before giving in.

July 6th, 2023

Luna transformed again, using her newfound strength to try yet again to break out. She growled as inhumanely as she was able to.

She knocked on the wall, to the left cell to hers.

"Ben, you awake?"

"Luna, what is it this time?" Came the reply.

She leaned to the back, rubbing her hand on wall. "I just feel lonely, when you guys are asleep."

It would be muffled to the average ear, but Luna's senses have heightened exponentially. And not just hers. The entire floor was dimly light at the night time. The cell lights were turned completely off, however. She figured these horrible people cared enough for the light not to disrupt them. She was confused, but did not dare question this, apart from the main thing; why did they kidnap her? And where was Sam?

"Luna, we're not going anywhere." The lab rat from the other cell made Luna turn to that side of the wall.

"Lindsay, you're awake, too?" Luna sighed with relief.

"How can we sleep? Its horrible here..."

Luna knocked on the wall. "You'd think we'd get a toilet or something."

"Ew, nasty." A cute giggle followed after. "Like I said, we're going to be here, together-"

"That's what worries me... I made her a promise. I failed to keep it. How long have I been here? It feels like an eternity."

The cellmate looked for an answer. "Honestly, this isn't so bad. Not for me. Its better than where I lived. I'm sorry about what you've been through. You don't deserve to suffer this much."

Luna laid down on the floor, falling silent.

"Still there?"

She was already losing it.

"L-Luna?"

Luna closed her eyes.

"Great job, Lindsay, you're going overboard."

"Fuck off, Ben."

An argument went off, with the sleeping Luna in between.

August 7th, 2023

"Lunchtime, freaks."

A diner cart rolled into her cell. She was in the corner, looking like she hadn't slept for a few days, and looked way too pale to be in health.

"Doc, your reptile girl ain't looking so good."

"Give her a wake up call."

The guard behind the cart lifted it up, sending the food flying forward and into the floor. The raw meat splattered down, making a hell of a mess. Chunks of meat fell onto Luna.

"Alright, let's-"

Luna made her surprise move. She grabbed the cart, and pushed it forward, giving the guard a good trip right into the end of the wall.

"Get back! Get back!" Guns were aimed at her. The two other guards there slowly moved backwards.

She showed off her razorsharp teeth.

The labcoat behind them quickly reached his walkie. "Containment situation, Code Black. Available assets, Floor Three, asap!"

Luna tackled both guards, sending them to the floor. The labcoat ran, dropping the clipboard and walkie talkie he had.

"Luna! Luna!" The redheaded girl, whom Luna deduced was Lindsay, whom she'd never seen until now, reminded her so much like Sam.

"They'll kill you, Luna! They'll shoot you dead!"

Several more guards entered through the end of the hall.

"Luna, please!"

The guards filed into a barricade. "Stand down, or we will fire upon you!"

"Luna!"

"FUCK ALL OF YOU!"

"FIRE!"

"LUNA!"

Multiple gunshots rang out. Luna fell, hit in alot of places, too many. She bled, while Lindsay was screaming in anger. She broke through the glass, and jumped out to her aid.

"BACK IN YOUR CELL, YOU!"

Lindsay raised the remains of the glass, using her apparent telekinetic abilities. She showered the guards, while also helping Luna.

"What... How'd you..."

"I guess you helped force them out. Now you know. Let's go."

She swiped away the guns of the guards with one hand, while lifting Luna with the other.

The lodged bullets were removed from her body forcibly. "URGH!" Luna leaned up, seeing the doors rip from their hinges, and crushing the guards, who were pinned against the walls.

"We don't need... To..." Luna was dropped at the stairwell.

"Go now. I can hold them off, better than in your condition."

Luna used the remainder of her stamina to head downstairs, leaving a trail of blood. Before she reached the first floor, another wave of gunfire broke out. Luna looked up, only for it to die as fast as it happened.

She was about to exit the stairwell, believing Lindsay was already finished. A huge thud came from behind. At first, she assumed Lindsay dropped one of the guards down.

She was dead wrong, and fell back, going in denial. Lindsay's body was there, her left eye replaced by a bullet hole. Her mouth open, and the soulless green eyes immobile. Luna went on her knees, shaking her. "Lind-Lindsay..."

The guards were already surrounding her, but were unnoticed by her.

August 10th, 2023

"It was a bad idea, trying to escape." Ben laughed a bit from the other side.

"Doesn't mean its worth trying."

"Well, true. You have a nice pair of lady balls. I'll give you that."

Two guards were making their way to the right, with someone who was blindfolded. It was a girl.

"Wh-What's going on? Where are you taking me?"

Luna looked close enough, recognizing this girl as none other than Sam. "Sam? Sam!"

Sam stopped, moving her head towards the sound of Luna.

"Luna, help me!'

The two guards placed her into Lindsay's cell.

"IF YOU HURT HER-"

"Knock knock."

Luna was distracted by a young man, with long, curly hair, dressed not in the white gowns they had, but black, with a vest.

"Hey, Luna."

She recognized his voice as Ben's.

"Sam here, she'll be fine. Both of you, I mean. Wouldn't recommend you trying anything. Under the normal circumstances, you'd be dead, but you've been spared. We're trying to be your friends here."

"You're with them? How-"

"That's not important. Anyways, I'm afraid I must go now."

"BEN, YOU TRAITOR!"

"Come now, don't be upset. Its safety."

"You call this safe, Ben?"

"Safe, yes, from you. We can't let you go. You're needed. Serve your purpose!"

"Fuck you, Ben!"

Luna tapped on the wall. "Sam, Sam, baby, I'm here. I'm here. Did anyone hurt you?"

"I got... They injected me, Luna. I don't know what's going on."

Luna slammed her shoulder into the glass. "What did you give her?! WHAT?!"

"It'll ruin the fun, so why tell you? Better hope she survives it. Past human trials have never pulled through. Goodbye, Luna."

"BEN, YOU SON OF A BITCH. I'LL KILL YOU. ONE DAY I'LL KILL YOU!"

"I'm counting on it. Men, with me."

March 7th, 2025

"Good morning, Sam."

There was no reply.

Luna yawned, stretching out. She went on to knock thrice on the walls. "Wakey-wakey!"

Still nothing. "Sam?"

A couple of labcoats and guards rushed to Sam's cell. Luna did her best to try and peek out as far as she was able to. "Sam! What's going on?!"

A stretcher was then brought. Luna looked away, with the body of her lover being taken forever.

One day, I'll escape. And when that happens... I'll free everyone, so that no one should ever ne tortured like this. Ever.

Ben, in a monitor room, was watching this, laughing. The piece in his ear sounded.

"Vince, its Lisa. You copy?"

"Send traffic."

"Status report?"

"Another failure. We should stop-"

"Negatory. I'm sending another test subject. File sent."

The live footage was replaced by a mini tab, which Vince Ventura opened up.

"Received. What-?"

A picture of a female high school student took much of the space.

"Carol Pingrey, a perfect, grade-A student, with very good health. Higher chance of survival through the process, more than Samantha Rush."

"Hmmmm. Where is she at, right now?"

"My main facility."

"Ah. Taking it into your hands. I see. Well, best of luck to you. Over."

He closed the tab, and kept on looking at the depressed Luna.

AN: This little end scene earns its place here, even though I may doubt it later. Alright, that's it. Four down, seven to go.
