Experiment 00Experiment 68 escaped ten days after he was created.
He was said to have the ability to control time, but it seemed he could only freeze items in their place, like birds in flight, or a man running. It was how he got out of the facility; he had used his gift to keep the guards in their place, and he ran as far as he could.
He remembered his mother and father, and wanted to cry in their arms and tell them the horrors of that facility. He wanted them to know he was still alive, but he surely didn’t feel like it.
This was all Yifan knew of the younger experiment, and all he could tell Yixing. He didn’t even know the other experiment’s name.
“It’s Tao,” Yixing added, at the end of Yifan’s story. Yifan only blinked and tilted his head, confused on how he could know that fact. Yixing just smiled and continued, “I know the name of all the experiments that succeeded. I know Tao is Experiment 68, and Luhan is Experiment 7.”
“What about me?”
“I knew you existed, but they never told me anything else. They acted like you weren’t real.”
Yifan hummed and rested his arms behind his head, which allowed Yixing to rest on his chest.
Yifan surely felt as if he wasn’t real, sometimes. It was the times he spent with Yixing, close enough where their heartbeats synced and moved as one. It was the times where Yifan was closer to Yixing than anyone had ever been, and the moments where Yixing looked at him with eyes that said everything his lips couldn’t manage.
He felt, it would be a shame to lose all of that just to feel real for a moment.
