Legendary Werewolf
Chapter 6: Experimented
An hour later…Kouga and Ayame were forced to kneel on the ground, tied up with chains the size of donuts. The weight of those things isn't a problem for werewolves…it's the shotguns aimed right at their heads they're worried about. "You both did an excellent job hiding yourselves," said Jacob as he stood before them, "And if my brother was still alive this very moment, he'd be jumping for joy!" and laughed at his own joke. Fucking psycho…thought Ayame. "What the fuck do you want from us?" roared Kouga as he pulled at his chains, growling as a shotgun cocked. "It's quite simple: you two will be guinea pigs for my experiments," replied Jacob, keeping his cool even as Ayame tried to snap a comrade's hand. "No deal!" yelled the couple. Jacob snickered in reply. "I don't see anything funny…" growled Ayame, watching Jacob nod at one of his men. Within seconds, the sound of wolf-like growls filled the atmosphere, accompanied by child-like snarls and whimpers. Ayame turned to the direction of the sound, and gasped. "Lucifer!" she cried, struggling to break the chains holding her down. "Mommy!" he cried back as he tried to pull away from the hunter's grip, whimpering as he gets pulled back. "You got two choices. One: you agree to my 'offer'; two: your son goes in your place. What will it be?" said Jacob, smirking as Ayame looked tearfully at her son. "I don't wanna be a lab rat," she whispered to Kouga, "But I can't let them take our baby either. What should we do?" and sobbed bitterly as she buried her face in her hands. "There's no other option, Ayame…I guess we'll have to go along with it," he whispered back. He glared at Jacob as he said, "Fine, we'll be part of your experiments…but on one condition: Lucifer remains unharmed." Jacob smirked. "Take them to the lab at once, and make sure this 'werewolf pup' gets what he needs…but never let him out unless I said so," he ordered. "No!" wailed Lucifer as they took him away. I'm sorry, kid…thought Kouga as he fought back his tears as they got forced into a testing room.
For several weeks, the couple were subjected to every experiment Jacob had in mind – strength tests, endurance tests, speed tests, etc. To make matters worse, Ayame was drugged before each experiment while Kouga was forced to use his energy to the limit; both are usually weak and/or exhausted…sometimes worse.
"I don't…feel so good…" groaned Ayame as she sat against the prison's wall, trying not to throw up. Kouga panted heavily as he sat beside her, wincing quietly as he tried to take a deep breath. He just got back from another endurance test…fortunately, he survived – he earned a few bruises and cuts, but they're not in serious condition. At least werewolves heal quickly, he thought. Ayame whimpered as she leaned on her husband – the drug is still in effect. "Hey, you guys alright?" whispered someone at the prison's window. Before they could say anything, the same person said, "Move away from the wall. I'm gonna blast the door!" Using whatever strength he has left, he gently picked up his wife and moved to the farthest corner of the room as the sizzling of a dynamite fuse became quite audible to their ears.
