Summary: Can love be born in the worst situation? Luka and Liam are nothing but experiments but how are they reflected in each others eyes? Status: In progress It has already been five years having to sit in this cellar…no purpose whatsoever. It’s been a long time since I've been put in here. I want to be free…but I just have to wait…and wait…until I get stronger… A laboratory, that no one dares to accuse. A laboratory, that neither the army nor government can take down. This corrupted world that just cares about money. This laboratory that takes human bodies…not caring if they’re alive or not…and turning them into monsters… A world that lived no demons, no war, and not even a negative thought…turned completely upside down… I leaned against the wall of my cellar twiddling my hair. Due to all the experiments, my hair turned form black to white. My eyes also turned from blue to red. I haven’t been outside this laboratory for such a long time. I wondered if the world changed…It probably did… A bell sounded. A door opened in my cellar. In this lab, we have rankings. The top ranks are called Perfects, a perfect finished project. Next, the Processors, just a little lower than the Perfects. They are projects that are not quite finished. Then finally the Unneeded, projects that are typically just testers for the higher ranks. The Professor’s lowest priority. They just stay in the lab so they can be tested on to make sure an experiment wouldn’t kill a Processor. Me? I’m an Unneeded…just a “toy” for the others. I walked through the door that opened in my room. It lead to the food area for all the projects. The food wasn’t that bad…unless I just got used to this hell’s food. “Luka!” someone called. I glanced over. It was 0580, another project. Because of his weird lab name, I called him by his real name, Lian. He was actually the son of this lab’s owner. I guess he hasn’t had an experiment done on his for a long time… “What is it?” I asked. Lian smiled at me happily. I did not understand how he could be so happy here. He smiled as if we were normal humans outside. “How are you so happy?” Lian stopped smiling for a second, then smiled again. He looked at me, his gaze so soft. “Might as well be happy in a place like this…if we can’t be happy in a place outside…” Lian smiled and grabbed my hand, “Shall we go eat?” he began leading me to the lunch area. I stared at the back of his head wondering…wondering how he can be like that. “Stupid…” I mumbled. Luka walked over to me with his tray full of food. “You’re not going to eat?” he asked. I sat on the lunch bench quietly. “I don’t need that food.” I replied. “Then what are you going to eat?” he cocked his head to the side as he sat next to me. I reached in my pocket and pulled out a jar filled with pills and placed it in front of Lian. “Ah…this won’t do, Luka.” He frowned, “why would you eat this stuff if there is good food over here?” Good food? I thought. How is food here good? I grabbed the jar of pills and took two pills out. Lian grabbed my wrist before I could eat the pills. “Eat this.” Lian placed an apple in front of me. Lian took the pills from my hand and threw them in the trash. “You…” I glared at Lian. Lian smiled at me happily. “From now on, you will eat good foods, ok?” Lian pointed at me playfully. I stared at him silently. “…Fine.” I sighed. Lian grasped my hands and grinned. Lian let go of my hands and began eating his food. He seemed so happy. Why doesn’t he ever think of the things that I think? Doesn’t he want to escape? Does he not want to be free? “Hey…Lian…do you ever think of escaping?” Lian stopped eating and looked at me with a concerned expression. “Luka…don’t.” Lian turned me towards himself, “It’s way to risky!” he yelled. I stared at his expressionless. “Lian…” I sighed, “I’m not planning to…” I turned back around. Lian’s face brightened. I wanted to be free, and to get away from this place. I grabbed the apple Lian gave me and pushed my lips against it. Should I eat this? Before I could take a bite, a hand grabbed the apple. The hand crushed that apple above my head. Lian jumped away quickly. I quickly turned around and tried to seize the man’s throat. The man was with other people. I looked at the man’s face. As I thought, it was a Perfect. One of the stronger Perfects, Project CM. He was one of the top ten projects. CM smirked as he looked down at me while grasping my arm. I tried to pull my arm away him. “Looks like you have pretty good plan.” CM glanced at Lian who jumped back to avoid the juices of the apple spraying him. Lian seemed nervous. “What plan?” I replied. CM lowered his face to mine. “To escape of course…but you know?” CM stuck out his tongue at me. “I can’t let you go just yet…our boss won’t be happy.” I smirked. “Well, that doesn’t matter to me does it?” “What?” “If I escape…the only one who will be getting scolded…is you.” CM exploded in anger. “You dare say that to me!” He threw his fist at me. I touched my cheek that received the impact of CM’s fist. I sat on the ground staring up at the monster. CM smiled a fiendish smile and lifted my chin. “You should learn you’re place…” CM grabbed my throat, and laid me on the table. Lian stared at us not knowing what to do. “S-stop it! Let go of him!” Lian shouted. I stared at him wide eyed. “Lian…” CM let go of my throat and looked at Lian. “Hmm…you new?” He walked towards Lian. “Don’t touch him…” I warned, breathing harshly. I held my pained throat and stood up. CM glanced back at me and smiled. “I’ll let you play a little more this time.” CM walked away with the rest of his gang. Lian ran up to me right after. “Are you okay?” He grabbed my hand and began dragging me to his room. “It’s all my fault this happened…” His grip became tighter. Why do you always blame yourself? I thought.
