2Heyo itsa me, Phoenix! I'm here again with another chapter of this fanfic. I'm going to keep this author's note short and sweet. For this note, I just want to say if you are enjoying the fic feel free to favorite or follow the fic! Alright, onto the fic!
A deafening cry went through the room. It was an unfamiliar type of cry for the area. It was the cry of a child. A small orange rabbit was held in the arms of one of the cogs. That small orange rabbit was me. I was never to know my mother or anything of my toon life. I was too young at that point to really know anything. I heard the faint yelling as I was carried away into another room. I was too young to know what really happened to my mother. I was too young to even care at the time. I just wanted to be surrounded by warmth and wanted food. I disliked the cold metal that was against my orange fur pressing into my skin. It was uncomfortable and frankly, I don't think the cogs cared. I was to be raised as if I was one of the cogs. I was definitely much smaller. I didn't know how to walk or talk yet and I felt it would be extremely unlikely that I would be taught how most others were taught.
I was quickly laid into a small tank that was warm but it felt unnatural. I continued crying until a bottle was shoved into my mouth. To other people, they could see a greenish colored liquid was in the bottle but for me, I just felt the warmth of the liquid and I thought it to be food. I suckled on it with my small mouth and eventually fell asleep. Little did I know; the amount of testing I was about to be put through was going to be excruciating.
As I had fallen asleep, the cogs wasted no time in sticking needles in me drawing blood and sticking in IV's. There was at one time this never would have happened but the newer aged tech wouldn't work for something like this. It was the old tech that was needed to continue the research. I was asleep and the green liquid would keep me asleep for a long while. They had added a bit of sleeping medication into the bottle along with a food supplement that was mixed in with cog technology. They had one chance to get this right otherwise they could expect the worst. That was why they took no time in starting the process for the tests.
I lay there fast asleep my breath slowing down from the normal beats. They should have waited till I was older or at least had educated me to believe that their way was the right way. I would have most likely been innocent enough for that to have worked but the cogs didn't want that. No. No. I probably wouldn't have been. This method though was dangerous. I felt a small prick in my shoulder and that is when it was attached. The small vial filled with a green liquid that kept auto refilling itself as needed. There were also tubes that would be thread through my body as I was older to make sure that this substance properly flowed through my body and bloodstream. It burned a little as it first entered. My body was small enough to where I didn't need a lot.
It was at this point where I didn't need to really worry about my own emotions. I wouldn't express them. This chemical turned that part of my brain off. I would only learn. I would feel no empathy. I wouldn't even feel normal pain. If I did I don't remember it and I never reacted to it.
