Chapter 1







He screamed as they attempted to hold him down.
"Let me go!! Let go of me!!" he yelled. They tied him down to a table and began the delicate operation. They picked up a small intricate machine with a very fine tipped point at the end. It was turned on and began vibrating and humming loudly, as the point grew to a smouldering red hot.
"No! Stop it! Let me go!!" he screamed as they came closer with the machine. In spite of his futile efforts to get free, they tightened the restraints holding his limbs down. They tore his shirt and ripped his unbuttoned overcoat off. They drew three lines parallel to each other completely around his neck with a pen. A metal clasp was deployed around the top of his head and around his chin, just below his lower lip.
They then took a leather belt and wrapped it around the table he was lying on, across his chest, and tightened it so tight that he had trouble breathing. He could still move, and he thought that if he kept moving, the burn marks wouldn't come out right, and they would have to kill him instead of sending him to Osecola. They were fed up with his movements and inserted a needle into his chest cavity. Immediately he stopped moving. He was paralyzed and could only move his eyes.
They didn't like doing this, because they couldn't hear his screams for help. They touched the burning tip to one of the lines that they had drawn around his neck, and he felt such an immense pain that he wanted to pass out, but he couldn't, and didn't.
One and a half grueling hours later, they were finished.
"Well well well, Hiroshi, that wasn't so bad, now was it?" The chief operator had said, whilest removing his rubber gloves.
"Rot in hell you scumbags!" Hiroshi winced. He was just coming out of his paralysis. The operators laughed, picked him up and chucked him down a chute.
