A young boy slowly woke up coughing as his dry throat released a wierd gas. He looked around as he got up his knees red from the ground. The boy noticed his pajamas were gone, replaced instead by a brandless stetchy black pair of boxers that only served the purpose of not auscepting people to the constsnt view of a boys genitalia. Suddenly a loud voice boomed from the speakers in the room one of an AI.
"Who are you?" The voice asked.
"Uh... Toby... Cross." The boy said when suddenly a buzzer buzzed.
"Wrong." The voice said before the room shot out arcs of electricity that assaulted his body and nervous system.
The boy's body spasmed on the ground as his muscles contracted in on themselves some ripping themselves from the force. His flesh lightly singed from the electricity, a few small patches melted off on to the sterile floor. After fifteen agonizing minutes the electricity stopped. Toby gasped and coughed from the pain and began to cry.
"Who are you?" The voice asked once more.
"I already told you who i am what more do you want!?" The boy yelled before the buzzers buzzes once more.
"Wrong again." The voice said before beginning the next 15 minutes of electrocution.
The boy screamed and cried in pain as his hands and shins blackened from contact with the elextrified ground. The pain intensified as flesh began to fall off and the exposed muscle was electrified and in contact with open air. The boy cough up blood which began to boil upon contact with the floor. The time passed slowly but eventually the fifteen minutes did end.
"Ahh... agh... why..." The boy cried.
"Who are you?" The voice asked thrice.
"I-I- Don't know..." The boy said as he gave up on screaming.
The voice took a while this time but eventually spoke.
"Wrong, initial reprogramming attempts failed." It said before electrocuting him without a buzzer warning him.
Fifteen minutes later the electricity stops and Toby lays there sobbing but no longer crying. His tear ducts had run out long ago but if he could cry he would. The room begins to move as if on an elevator which scared him with the thought of falling but what happened next scared him even more. The room moved side ways like an elevator with all four directions of movement.
Eventually the room stopped and waited for a while before the wall moved. A section of the wall opened up like a door revealing a large room empty with a small light on the other end. Suddenly the voice boomed once more startling him.
"Enter the room." He voice commanded.
The boy hesitated and examined the inside of the room but eventually gave in and stepped within. The door closed behind him with no handle to be found and on the other end the lighthas vanished. Soon after the voice spoke again.
"Walk forward." The voice demanded.
Toby had long come to the conclusion that his input does not matter to these people and began walking forward. As he walked further into the darkness he felt more and more nervous as if he was being watched. After a while the voice spoke once more.
"Fight." It commanded.
Just as Toby was about to ask what it meant the lights came on and another boy was right in front of him. The boy was in the same boxers with similar redness around his eyes. Toby look around trying to find a camera from which it could see them.
"Hold on, why are you making us fight?" Toby asked.
"Failure to fight or loss will result in punishment that will make you want to die, far worse than what you have experienced so far." The voice said.
"Bu-" Toby tried to say before a fist meets his face.
Toby rolled across the ground in pain his nose now bleeding profusely. He tried to stand up but the boy kicked him over and got on top of him. The boy began beating down on him as he began shielding his face. Toby tried his best to defend but the occasional punch got through and slammed into his face. Eventually Toby knocked the boy off and jumped to his feet rushing the boy.
Why are people hurting me!? Why must i hurt!? Why am i hurting him!?
Toby beat on the boy soon flipping the situation. He gets on top of the boy and begins beating down on the boy. The boy doesn't know how to defend peoperly end punches get through but he tries anyway. Why do either of them try when in the end neither of them are of advantage here?Toby beat on the boy soon flipping the situation. He gets on top of the boy and begins beating down on the boy. The boy doesn't know how to defend properly end punches get through but he tries anyway. Why do either of them try when in the end neither of them are of advantage here?
Of course... i need to survive!!!
Toby beats down harder and harder his fists begin bleeding but he doesnt stop. Stopping could cause him to slip up and die so he punches like a machine. Toby is so hyperfocused on the boy he is unable to hear the voice trying to congratulate him on victory nor the sounds of the boy barely alive to cough and sob. The boy lay there coughing and sobbing as his face lays covered in blood, snot, and mishapen beyond belief.
"Ghk ghh aaagh" Was all Toby could say as he lay beside the boy spasming.
"Return to your rooms." The voice said as it stopped electrocuting Toby.
Toby stood up and began walking back to his room as the boy tried to stand up only managing to so it after several minutes of struggling. Toby returned to his room which began moving once more. At the same time the voice began congratulating him.
"Good job on winning your first fight, i expect more in the coming days."
