I could hear them through the thick glass. Thick, low murmurs made my ears strain to listen the men outside my holding place. When I tried to move closer to the glass, the wires attached to my body held me back, and small bubbles formed as I moved in the water. My oxygen mask also held me in place, it tube wrapping around my small, delicate frame. The men looked at me curiously, inspecting my movements and expression. I made eye contact with one, and he gave me a satisfied smile. My hair moved gently against my pale skin, making me shiver a bit.
I let out a small noise, hoping they would let me out sometime soon. I heard a series of beeps and my heart jumped happily. I think this means I'll be getting out soon. They looked at the screens on their machines, and spook to one another in an exited tone. One pushed a button and the other rushed over to my containment unit. The water began to drain, the wires let go of my body, and I slowly began to sink to the bottom of the large cylinder. My strange attachment waved behind me happily, and the things on my head twitched nervously.
The cylinder split four ways. I stood on the base of it, water still dripping from my body.
"It seems as if she's finally developed into what we've been trying to create for so long," one said motioning for me to come closer. I stumbled off the stand, and crashed into his chest. He held me steady. "She's a little weak from staying in the developing chamber."
"I can see that," the other mumbled and reached out to pull at one of the things on my head. "The genes from the demon Nibi didn't corrupt her human-like appearances. She'll be able to walk the streets without much suspicion." He petted my head, and I let out a soft noise.
"It figured that's all she'll be able to say for now… "Nyu". Just like a little cat. That's all she knows." I looked up at the man who copied my noise. He sighed.
"We should show the Kazekage. He probably won't be too pleased having another monstrosity around him, but he did want a new weapon like Gaara."
"I don't think he expected this one to be actually part demon," He looked over at the glowing machines that pulsed with a strange energy. "If he doesn't want her, we'll just terminate the poor thing."
