Trixie, Uni, and Esther made their way through the silent halls of RISHA, being vigilant and stealthy. They crept down the long dark corridors with only the occasional blinking light indicating they were in a facility. The halls themselves were bare and empty, most likely due to the fact most of the staff were in the control room, monitoring the base's security cameras. They crept along until they reached a door labeled "Experimentation Room 10: Classified".
Uni scanned the door, looking for any security measures or booby traps. "Looks like they've got a complex lock on this thing," she observed, taking out her electronic device and hooking it up to the door. "Give me a second to crack it.”
After a few moments of concentration, Uni let out a victorious hum. "Got it! The door is now officially unlocked. Let's get your friend, shall we?”
The girls cautiously opened the door, revealing the sterile white room before them. The room was large like Trixie remembered, with a few medical instruments lined up against the walls, and a high-tech computer terminal in the far corner of the room.
Trixie immediately noticed, in the middle of the room, Piper lay strapped to the makeshift operating table, an IV attached to her arm.
Trixie quickly ran to her, followed by Esther and Uni. She leaned over Piper, checking on her vital signs, but she was unresponsive.
"She's alive, but she's unconscious. They must've drugged her or something," Trixie said, worry evident in her voice.
Uni walked around the room, noticing the various medical tools and the high-tech computer. She approached the computer, observing the various data and diagrams displayed on the screen. "This looks serious.”
As Uni clicked through the various screens and data displayed, she noticed a folder labeled "Experiment Results, Subject 10: Piper". Uni opened the folder, and her eyes widened as she scanned the contents.
"This...this is insane." Uni whispered, her voice filled with disbelief.
Esther looked over Uni's shoulder and gasped as she saw the contents of the folder. The data showed a series of experiments conducted on Piper. It detailed the various procedures, observations, and results from the tests performed on her.
Trixie looked at the girls, her face ashen. "What does it say? What have they done to her?”
Uni continued to scan the data. "They've been experimenting on her...implanting her with different nanobots, altering her DNA...she's basically a guinea pig for their twisted experiments."
Esther's hand flew to her mouth, her eyes wide with shock.
Uni took a deep breath before continuing. "It says here that they've been conducting experiments on Piper. Injecting her with various drugs, testing her pain thresholds, monitoring her vitals, and more. Some of these experiments are...horrific. It's like...they've been treating her like a lab rat. No wonder she's unconscious. They've been pumping her full of crap for who knows how long.”
This narrative has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. If you see it on Amazon, please report it.
Trixie felt a wave of disgust and anger wash over her. "Those bastards! How could they do this to her?!"
Uni continued to scroll through the data, her eyes widening even more. "That's not all. They've been documenting her reactions to certain stimuli, monitoring her brain activity, and testing... something about a 'Void State'?”
"Void State? What the hell is that?" Trixie asked, her voice filled with both anger and confusion.
Uni shrugged, still reading. "It's not fully explained here, but it seems to be some kind of altered state they've been trying to achieve through the experiments. Maybe a state of heightened abilities or awareness, I don't know.”
Trixie took a deep breath, trying to calm herself. "We need to get her out of here. Now. But we have to be careful. They'll be watching us like a hawk."
Uni nodded in agreement. "Right, we need a distraction, something to draw their attention away from us and Piper.”
Suddenly, Uni's eyes widened with an idea. "I might have a plan. But it's... risky."
Trixie and Esther exchange a look, then turn to Uni expectantly, waiting to hear her plan.
"You see, when I was combing through the files in the server room, I found something interesting," Uni said, a sly smile on her face. "Apparently, they were experimenting on another subject, one labeled 'Subject 0'. It's a high-security file, and the experiments conducted on this subject were... intense."
Trixie and Esther raised their eyebrows in surprise, the former inquiring, "Subject 0... Who is this person? And how can they help us?”
Uni shrugged. "I honestly have no idea who or what Subject 0 is. But judging by the level of security surrounding this information, they're clearly important and dangerous."
She then leaned in closer, a wicked gleam in her eye. "But that's not the best part. I also found the location of the containment cell where Subject 0 is being held. And the cell has a direct access tunnel leading straight to the emergency exit.”
Trixie's eyes widened with understanding. "So you're saying we can use Subject 0 as a distraction? Draw their attention while we sneak away out of the tunnel?"
Uni nodded. "Exactly. And if the security is as high as I think it is, this distraction should keep the PA busy for quite a while.”
Trixie and Esther exchanged glances, contemplating Uni's plan. They knew that time was of the essence, and if Subject 0 was as powerful as Uni described, they could provide a significant distraction.
Trixie sighed. "Alright, let's do it. But I hope you know what you're doing, Uni.”
Uni smirked, a hint of mischief in her eyes. "Trust me, I know what I'm doing. We'll have in and out, and they won't even know what hit them."
Trixie and Esther steeled themselves, preparing for the task ahead. They knew the risks, but the safety of Piper was their top priority.
"Right, let's get moving," Uni said, leading the way towards the emergency tunnel. "Subject 0 is being held in Sector B, Level 3. Follow me."
As the girls made their way down the bleak, windowless halls of the facility, Trixie's mind raced with thoughts and worries. What was Subject 0? Could they really trust Uni's plan? And most importantly, what horrors awaited them in Sector B?
Uni led the girls through the complex labyrinth of the facility, navigating the maze-like corridors with surprising ease. They passed by countless doors and halls, each one more ominous than the last.
Finally, they arrived at a heavily fortified door, labeled "Sector B - Level 3.”
Uni stopped in front of the door and took a deep breath. "This is it," she said, her expression serious. "Beyond this door, you'll find Subject 0. It's probably not going to be pretty, so be prepared.”
Trixie and Esther exchanged a nervous glance, their hearts pounding in their chests. Uni's warning only served to heighten their anxiety. Nonetheless, they nodded, signaling that they were ready to proceed.
Uni typed in a few commands on the keypad mounted next to the door, causing it to let out a series of loud beeps before sliding open. A rush of cold, sterile air hit them as they stepped into the long, dimly lit hallway stretching out before them.
The metal walls and floors made everything echo, creating an eerie atmosphere. Trixie could feel her spine tingling as they walked down the hall, following closely behind Uni. The silence was deafening, with only the soft hum of the facility's systems breaking the stifling tension.
As they continued their trek through the corridor, Trixie became aware of a faint sound, like a steady, rhythmic thumping. At first, the sound was barely perceptible, but as they grew closer to their destination, it grew louder until it became impossible to ignore.
Uni stopped in front of a large, steel door, the sound of the thumping now undeniable. Trixie and Esther shared a look of unease, uncertain of what lay behind that door.
Uni's expression hardened. "Well, this is it. Subject 0 is behind this door. Now, remember, we need to get Subject 0 out of the cell and let them loose. The security force will react, and the distraction will give us time to escape. We just have to be careful and keep our heads straight. Understood?”
Trixie and Esther nodded, their bodies tense with anticipation. They could sense the danger and uncertainty looming before them, but they were determined to see this through, for Piper's sake.
