The government wanted to control the human mind. Their lab rat was the kind of girl that no one would go looking for. They wanted to set the metal through my mind. I wondered why it had been me that was chosen. The air tasted like dust and my elbows and knees ached. I reached up and stretched into the emptiness around me. Nothing was simple anymore. My heart was pumping blood, yet I never felt a single beat. My eyes took in every beautiful star that I managed to see through the dungeon entrance above my head, yet I never blinked unless I was programmed to. I was living and breathing and dead at the same time. What did they want with me?
