He wasn't very excited. He thought that this field trip was going to be boring.
Earlier that week, his teacher said that they were going to go on a field trip to a lab. A lab? Why would Chase want to walk around halls and watch people look through microscopes and clean utensils? But whatever. He's got nothing better to do.
The bus ride was long and loud with his classmates. It took about an hour and 30 minutes to get to the parking lot and another 15 for them to get into the lab.
They are walking through the halls, their guide showing then some small experiments that they are conducting.
"Isn't this existing?" Asked his friend, Henry.
"Not really. It's just some germs and medicines that they are showing us." Said Chase, rather boredly.
"But we get to see how they are made!" Said Henry.
Chase rolls his eyes as Henry and he other classmates watch the scientists' work. As they continue walking, Chase notices a door that says "Restricted Area. Do NOT Enter Without Permission." Restricted? That's where they keep all the interesting stuff.
Chase walks through the door and into a long hallway. The hall doesn't have a lot of light, so he could barely see the door at the end. He grabs the knob and opens the door and sees a man, about the same age as him, chained to the wall and a muzzle on his mouth, blood all over his body. The sight horrified Chase. How can they do this? He walks closer to the sleeping male and moves his hand to his cheek, lifting his face to get a better look.
"You're beautiful..." He says to himself.
