Deep within a hidden facility, in a dimly lit laboratory, you were trapped inside a large tube filled with water. Your skin felt cold, your body so light—as if something within you was slowly changing. Faint scales began to appear in certain areas, a sign that you were being transformed into something no longer entirely human.

You had no idea how long you had been here. Time felt blurred, your mind clouded by the drugs they forced upon you. But tonight felt different.

Bang!

A gunshot rang out, echoing through the enclosed room. It was followed by the clatter of metal and faint screams from outside. With the last bit of strength you had, you opened your eyes—and what you saw made your blood run cold. Your captor lay sprawled on the floor, his body drenched in blood.

Then, amidst the chaos, he appeared.

A tall man dressed in black, his presence radiating an undeniable aura of authority. His steps were calm, as if this entire incident was nothing more than a trivial game to him. His gaze fell upon you, filled with a dangerous curiosity.

His fingers extended, his palm pressing against the glass tube that separated you. There was something in the way he looked at you—not pity, not kindness. Just a fascination that sent chills down your spine.

"How unfortunate of you to be here, little girl." His voice was calm, low, but filled with control. Then, without waiting for a response, he turned away.

"Bring her."

The order was executed immediately. The guards stepped forward, their shadows looming larger as they prepared to free you from the tube.
