grey woke up, just like any other day. he brushed his teeth and headed downstairs to the kitchen and got breakfast.
but today there was something he dreaded happening, today he turned 15, and now he has to take the test.
'town hall is just under a mile away, i should be fine to walk there' grey thought as he finished eating.
he grabed all his stuff and headed out the door. grey lived alone, he has ever since his parents abandoned him. he wasnt completley screwed though. his grandparents had given a hefty sum of money in exchange for them not having to take care of him.
grey sighed, as he turned the corner and walked up the steps to the city hall. 'i really hope these tests wont be that bad, but i heard they take like a week to fully complete'
he opend the door, after walking up what he thought was an unecisary ammount of steps.
"hello! are you here for the test?" an elderly woman asked him, she seemed nice enough, but he wasnt really in a good mood at the moment.
"yes i am, which way." he asked, an annoyed tone escaping him unintentionally. "sorry, im just a little on edge right now." he apologised.
"dont worry about it, young man. its fine, ive had worse people come in." she stood up from her desk and motioned for him to follow "its over here, just a short walk away. follow me if you would" she started walking down the corridor to greys left.
her heels clicked on the floor, not in an intimidating way, but it still made him nervous.
they arrived at an odd looking door, almost as if it was a bank vault. it was painted od green and had 'test room one' painted on it.
"heres your station, youre lucky young man" she started walking away and looked over her shoulder mumbling a few words before sge was gone "station one has the least ammount of fatalities recorded" she rounded the corner and disappeared from his sight.
'WHAT!? FATALITIES!?' he thought-screamed in his mind. 'since when!? there were never any documented from the test! it was only the experiments that killed people... at least thats what i was told. damn...' he turned around and the door opend beckoning him inside.
he walked in and the door closed behind him, trapping him in an unkown place, wihout any idea of whats happening. the walls started to glow a blinding white, and grey fell unconcious.
he woke up, but not in the vault like before, he was on top of a mountain, with unclimbably steep slopes on every side. he had no way down. panicking, he started looking for any way down. he couldnt find anything, he was stuck. "damnit!" he angrily yelled.
he couldnt remember anything about how he got there, or even anything about the room hed been in before, the vault looking one. all he knew now was he was at the top of a mountain with no way down.
'panicing wont help me' he thought, as he sat down on what little space he had. he closed his eyes and thought of a way out, anything he could use. even though he didnt find any way, he felt better now... calm almost..

he felt a sudden rush of energy run through his head, and a splitting acge shot through his skull. but it was worth it, he now knew why he was here. he was here to complete the test, and hed do a damn good job at it, thats for sure.
[TEMPORARY SYSTEM GRANTED]
[MEMORY DAMAGE - REPAIRED]
he didnt know what happened, or what these weried messages, that appeared a glowing green infront of him, were. all he could do was be thankfull, thankfull for whatever he had now that had restored his memories.
he smiled evilly. "fuck your test, im gonna beat the shit outta it"

"sir, this kid... hes passing all the tests at record speed. he hasnt even failed one yet. its like hes... done this before" a woman, sitting in a dark room filled with screens showing greys test from different angles, said.
"whats his time?"
"200 minuets"
"how far is he?"
"halfway through, sir" the woman replied
"bring him in as soon as hes done, we need him for the experiments. dont let him die... if you do, youll be next."
"yes, sir!"
the man stood up and took out his earpiece, ceasing communication with the woman. 'todays gonna be fun' the man snarled and smiled widely, his face contorting to look demonic. 'lets see what power hell get, maybe hell be a tasty one' the man licked his lips, a long pointy tounge flopping out of his mouth while he opened it wide enough to fit a basket ball inside.
CHOMP
'hmmm, bitter, the last one was better' the man thought as he droped what he was eating before. "lets go find something tastier" the man walked out the door, leaving behind two headless bodies, their necks chewed off, and blood gushing out on the floor.

greys mind hurt. he had just gone through 6000 tests, now a crazy 'system' was telling him what to do. not only that it was telling him to risk his life to go through the experiment, or he would die.
'the fuck!' he sighed angrily, he was never one to swear, but sometimes, times just like this, he couldnt help it.
he looked around where he was, and he remembered it to be the odd white vault he had been in before when he started the experiment. 'now, how do i get out of here' he thought. before he had the system to help him but now whenever he tried, it wouldnt do anything
'it must have something to do with that 'temporary system' thing it talked about. i guess ill just have to figure all that out later' he thought
before grey could try, anything else the vault door flung open and slammed against the wall with a THUD. about twelve men wearing all black and holding rifles entered the room. a man wearing a deep blue suit enteres between them. "mr. Grey, im gonna have to ask you to come with me."
