Wind
The wind was ringing in its ear, and the door was open
Its eye dilated at the sudden amount of light coming in, and it hid in a corner of the room, moving many boxes and books as it did
The door started closing behind the two figures
It managed to see what was behind the door as it closed, a corridor...long....black and lit up by lamps on the ceeling, the corridor was made of the same thing as the room it lived in, the same material as the reinforced door that separated it from the corridor, the same material as the other door at the end of the corridor
Metal, it's all it ever knew: metal...cold...and dark and hard to break
Step
Step
Step
Step
The sound echoed through its ear. It was scary, it didn't like sounds... Silence was better, and ...far better
Step
Step
Step
Step
The steps were different today, no...they weren't different, and there were simply more of them
Two people, perhaps?
They couldn't see, the door had closed again, with an unbearable sound as it scraped the metal floor below
The door was heavy, it couldn't open it on its own....it had never gotten past it...it had never tried to get on the other side anyway
The room was barely lit green by the tanks full of that green liquid. It never understood what it was...byt it was always connected to its body through pipes and cables
Maybe it was important
One of the two figures spoke....it didn't understand speech, but it recognized the sound
"Come out,"
Obey
It crawled out of the boxes it was hiding in, it was scared, it didn't like to have more than one person near its body
The figure started speaking again...it didn't understand speech, but the other figure seemed to be interested in what the first one was saying...perhaps they weren't talking to it
When the second figure spoke, the voice was deeper....more intense than the one it was used to
It scared them
They tried to hide again
They were asked to come out again
Obey
After a short discussion between the two figures, the metal gate opened again
the sound was unbearable
The new figure with the deep voice got out, making a strong sound as it did
They didn't know the sound. It sounded weirder than speech. It was just the repetition of the same sound. "hahahahahahhaha."
It didn't know what it was
The second figure was gone
The other remained
The figure walked close to it
It tried to defend itself by raising its arm. However, the figure put its hand on its face, the part it couldn't feel, it did something, and then sounds came out
