Lab Rats: A Short Story Of Alphonse Almodovar
The year is 2077 and Amy Jones, a beautiful woman with long blonde hair, is being rushed through the dimly lit hallways of Suburban Hospital in Bethesda, Maryland. Her husband John is rushing by her side trying to keep her calm so nothing happens to their future son. Eventually, they reached the delivery room, however, John could not be in the room at that time so one of the nurses took him to the lobby. John waited what felt like an eternity before they came to tell him the news. “I have good news and I have bad news.” Dr. Gunner said with a sullen look on his face.
“Your wife gave birth to a happy, healthy baby boy, sadly though your wife did not make it.” John was devastated. “How could this have happened?” John says heatedly as he kicks one of the chairs across the room. “It’s not your fault.” Dr. Gunner says in hopes of calming down John. “These kind of things happen from time to time.

“Hello ladies and gentlemen I am your overseer, Alphonse Almodovar, I have called you here today to tell you about the latest experiment that Project Safehouse will be conducting. And you lucky few get to be our ‘Lab Rats’. We will begin cryogenically freezing each and every one of you along with your beloved children by next week. The process is 100% safe and you have no reason to worry.” The crowd let out a sigh of relief. “Now get back to your rooms and spend the next week with your children, after all you won’t be able to for the next 200 years.” Alphonso let out a communicative laugh.
John went back to his room planning to make the best of the next week with his beloved son. Soon enough though, John realized this place wasn’t all that happy of a place. The employees would give attitude when you tried to greet them in the halls, the cooks were sarcastic, and the guards just didn’t talk as if they took some sort of oath. Eventually John got to the point where it was almost as if he was ready to be put in the

    John Hilliard trusts and knows that his sister Beth will understand his disturbances from the war that are giving him constant nightmares. He depended on her to relate to him, because know one else did, but he wouldn’t let anybody else in to his inner circle, “Beth, Beth. He had always gone to Beth.” Baths support for John was shown in a memory of when the two of them were swimming in the sea one summer holiday. Beth helped John overcome his fear of swimming out of his depth even though she was petrified herself of swimming all the way out to the open sea. Often, when he was much younger, john had slept on Beths bedroom floor for comfort and reassurance whenever he was feeling unhappy or scared. This was why John felt obliged to talk to Beth in the middle of the night before he went back to his battalion the next day, to let out his emotions because he knew she would understand. She asked if he was afraid to go back. “She was like all…

    His hands started to tremble. Looking up at Josie he studied her. She had a look of pure concentration on her face as she wrote everything down. He couldn’t help but envy her. Sure her life wasn’t perfect but it was a hell of a lot better than his. She could choose her own career without being screamed at for hours on end. She could get one bad grade without being told she was a failure. She didn’t have to be perfect, and she was beginning to slowly understand that. That was something John would kill for. Even his best wasn’t enough. John had tried his best to please his father; he studied harder than anyone else he knew. He’d sacrificed so much to try and make his father proud, but nothing was ever good enough. John closed his eyes and leaned his head back thinking of all the times he was put down by his father. Pain welled up from deep inside him.…
