1986

In a rather large room, here sat twenty children between the ages of four and eleven. A few had been here for at least a couple days, some had been here for around two weeks. Some were taken, some were sold, and one willingly came. They all sat in a large circle as their wrists were tattooed.

From 001 to 020, all had their subject number.

After that, a man and four women walked in the middle of the circle. The man was left unnamed, but the women were named.

Vivian Vasquez, Hannah Jennings, Bella Kobayashi and Savannah Greene.

They were to be the subject's caretakers. Five for each.

Then, after everyone was assigned their caretakers, they were assigned their roommates. They read it off a list, which had been haphazardly thrown together. Well, they'd put a little thought into it.

The very next day, the experimentation would begin.
