Flourishing Disasters--

One foggy cool fall evening you see a silhouette of what appears to be two cooling towers standing in the way of the bright yellow moonlight, and decide to explore it.
The further you got into the forest, the more you wanted to turn and run, but something told you to keep going. You finally made it after the long and ardueous journey. There you stand in a dark and secluded part of the power plant. There's nothing but dead silence untill crackling branches grabs your attention and you start to hyperventalate. You turn to see a glowing pair of teal eyes coming from the back lot.
You could make out only a black figure with glowing eyes. "Who's there?" It asks, creping closer. "I...I'm guest, what are you?" You ask and hear nothing back. You start to tremble and your mouth becomes dry.
The beast kicks what looks to be a streetlight. "WHAAAAM!" The pole made a ringing noise and a dim light flickered on. You looked ahead and see what seems to be a pair of golden wings. "Well, guest... I'm project D.A.R.K... or just plain old Dark. What are you doing in a place like this... it's dangerous for a pup like you. You might get hurt, or worse." Dark replies, bearing his fangs.
I just decided to explore this... uhh.." "What seems to be a nuclear power plant? Well, don't let the cooling towers fool you, this place did much more than create energy. It created monsters and beasts unseen by the public eyes. This is an abandoned labratory that was used for animal testing some fifty years ago." Dark finished the sentence for you.
Dark stood his ground as you looked up and down the surrounding area. "What kind of tests were done here?" You ask as you sit on a nearby fallen log. "This was a nuclear power plant. But nuclear power plants create nuclear waste, they tested different animals and weapons with the radioactive material, why do you think my eyes glow?
I was created to be a weapon for destruction for the military. But, I never made it into the outside world, for I was too much of a hazard to be released. I'm the groundskeeper for this place. Even though nobody ever comes anymore." Dark sits in a brush of dead grass and flexes his wings. "So, your wings aren't natural?" You ask in an effort to understand.
Dark lets a maniacal laugh and looks straight at you. "Of course not. these wings are pure gold and radioactive material. I bleed no blood, only nuclear waste." "But, if you're an animal, how could you withstand these procedures?" You ask in knnowing that any sort of treatment to an animal like this would kill it. "Wires, cables, electrodes, medical fluids, would always bee in or around me. As testing went on, I grew more attatched to them, and now I can't be alive with out it." Dark swayed his head left to right as he named off the list of supplies.
Didn't you have family to rescue you?" There was a long pause and a gentle breeze came and went. "Yes, but... they were all captured and died in testing. I never knew my family, for we were always seperated in cages and in glass tubes.
You felt somewhat terrible for the monster. Knowing that your family is safe back at home.
But, one of my friends... was a human. An employee here. But one day, he turned and almost did me in." Dark paused to remember what had happened. "He would fill my food dish with dog food from a can and throw away the drugged food secretly. He would always make excuses or lie to spare me atleast one or two days from testing or procedures. But one day, that all changed. He fed me the medicated food. He did the opperations himself. And didn't stick up for me once when it was time for testing." Dark's hur blew gently in the cool breeze.
You shivered and strained to keep from breaking down. "One day, the plant was raided and the animals were either set free, or destroyed. Most were too complex and dangerous for the outside world to handle. I had escaped when my cage was tipped and the door hinge to snap, setting me free.
Something was missing, you still didn't know what gave the man a change of heart. "But, what made your friend change? Was he threatened?"
That's a piece I cannot fill. I don't know what happened bit by bit exactly, I can only remember what I've seen or heard. I'd give anything to know exactly how all of this happened." Dark concluded. He stood up and walked slowly towards you. You started to get nervous and your pulse increased dramatically.
In conclusion, I can no longer trus humans, or stand to be around them. so in this case, I'm afraid you've overstayed your welcome, guest." Dark's wings expanded to the farthest they could reach and they started to glow. Dark's eyes got brighter and it got so bright, you whited out.
Somewhere, sometime, you wake up in a field of sunflowers and the smell of summer air. Your head felt lke it's been hit by bricks and you've ben run over by a truck. The sun beats down on your face and you sit up, not rembering much from the night before. "Ohh... was it a dream?" You looked over to the hills and see the power plant and smile faintly. You gather yourself together and head for your home.
