Adam, like all of the other test subjects, was fast asleep in a comatose state; for god knows how long now. As the awakening process began, however, he began to move. Twitching once, then another time a few seconds later. After a longer pause, he twitched again, more violently, and then settled down again. A longer pause, and then a sudden jerk to life. Adam sat up in a rapid motion, and then clutched at his back in almost as fast a motion. Searing pain was felt in the space between his shoulder blades, and he hadn't even opened his eyes yet! As he grabbed at the area surrounding his back, he felt a strange, solid leathery sensation, and traced it toward himself. This...thing was somehow attached to his back. He opened his eyes slowly, squinting as the artificial lighting burnt his dilated pupils with what felt like the force of a thousand suns. He had not opened his eyes in a while, and he could feel it. He had still been holding the strange leathery object stuck to his back, but did not dare to attempt to yank it out, as the pain was already far too great in that area. He tried opening his eyes again, this time with some success.
Before he could open his eyes fully, a massive force contacted the right side of his face, knocking him off of the bed he was on. The force felt like the same leather he had been touching with his left hand, except there was also some piercing sharpness to the force as well. "Maaaate! Whatcha doin' yankin' on me doodle?!" A very loud Australian accent exclaimed. Adam noticed his left arm was not longer clutching at his back, and was instead up towards the bed, as it was still attached to an IV drip. He was still very disoriented, and paid little attention to the voice from earlier. To him, it felt almost like waking up from one of his 'episodes', although with much more pain involved. Three more leathery forces impacted his face in quick succession, first from the left, then the right, then the left again. The last one knocked him to his belly, causing him to pull the IV drip onto the floor as well. He opened his eyes again, seeing small puddles of red on the cold floor, very close to his face. With his right hand, he touched his cheek and felt a stinging sensation. He pulled it away from his face and looked at it. Blood. Then, as his face began to tingle he wiped the blood on his gown and put his hand to his face again. He pulled it away. No blood. He could not fathom what was happening to him, as he sat up on his knees.
"Are you bloody retarded or sumfin'?" The voice yelled again, this time very close to his ear. So close, in fact, that he could feel a cold yet organic movement of air touching his right ear as the voice yelled. Adam turned his head towards the source of the sound, and immediately jumped back, pulling the IV drip further away from the bed as well. What he saw was a terrifying grey face, with glowing pupil-less eyes, and incredibly pointed teeth within a mouth that seemed to have a perpetually evil smile. This face took up most of his field of view, but as he moved backwards, he could notice that the head was in fact floating a little away from the body, which was a hulking mass of grey muscle. Adam also noticed the Australian cork hat that the monstrous figure wore, and also the fact that he could still not fit the entire figure into his field of view. His eyes followed the terrifying figure down its body, just to see where it ended. Before he could go too far, however, he was interrupted by yet another slap to the face, coming from the monster's gigantic claw, knocking him even further backwards, and pulling the IV drip even further along the floor. "First ya' touch me inappropriate-like, then yer' gunna look at me in places? At least buy me dinna' first ya' bloody pervert wank, fuaaark!" Adam did not comprehend what was going on, as he laid on the floor, watching the figure look at him, then look on over towards the IV drip that was on the floor. The figure followed the cord to where it was attached, which was Adam's left arm, and Adam did the same. The monster then took Adam's wrist, and yanked the needle out of his wrist with no care intended whatsoever. Adam screamed as he began to bleed profusely from his wrist, and he looked away. "Oh man the fuck up, ya' little whiny bitch!"
Adam's wrist began to tingle, and he looked back at it again. The wound began to close itself up, and when he wiped away the blood, it was as if there was never a wound to begin with! He looked up at the monster, who was now looming upside-down over his head. "Wh-who are you?!"
"Ya' mean ya' don't remembah? Aw, that breaks me heart! It's me, Bruce!"
