Yeah, I Am a Broken Experiment
Explosion underground
Experiment Room 12, Underground
Ren is lying on a cold stone floor. His body is trembling. Chains hold his wrists. He’s too thin. Too pale. His lips are cracked. His voice is barely there.
Ren Valencia
[whispering]
… Is it… over?
Scientist
[coldly]
He’s still alive?
Scientist
How? He shouldn’t have lasted ten seconds with that much mana pressure.
Ren blinks slowly. There’s dried blood under his nose. His breathing is shallow.
Ren Valencia
I… I didn’t mean to survive…
They ignore him. The glowing mark on his hand faintly—just enough to be noticed.
Scientist
Wait. That mark—
Suddenly, the air crackles. The ground shakes. A surge of magic bursts from Ren's body, wild and out of control
Ren Valencia
[terrified]
N-No… please… stop—!
Explosion. Screams. Then silence
The lab is in ruins. Tables shattered. A faint hum of leftover magic buzzes in the air. In the center of it all—Ren lies motionless, small, and broken
Scientist
[coughing]
H-He’s… still breathing?
Scientist
[staring at Ren’s hand in horror]
The mark… Look.
The mark which looks like in the shape of moon glows gently, like a heartbeat.
It pulses with something ancient—not human.
Scientist
[whispers]
I think he belongs to them…
Scientist
that's why power was reacting to him.
Scientist
Not reacting. Belonging
Scientist
[voice flat, cold]
Send word to the Council.
The experiment failed—but the subject survived.
Scientist
We can't keep him here
Scientist
Then send him to the Academy and tell them to keep him under observation

Council Meeting
High Council Chamber – Hours After the Explosion
Six robed figures sit around a circular table. Magic-infused crystal screens float before them, showing Ren's unconscious form.
Eldric (Council head)
So. The experiment lived.
Theris (Councilwoman)
No… he survived. That’s different
Varn (Councilman)
I have a bad feeling that he is that.
Eldric (Council head)
it can't be
Dren (Councilman)
[voice low]
We agreed never to use First Circle seals again…
Theris (Councilwoman)
[glancing at him]
Agreements change when opportunity rises.
Varn (Councilman)
The Dravenhart heir is at the Academy.

Going to Academy
Two lower-ranked servants sit across from him, arms crossed.
Servant 1
Why are we even wasting a carriage on him?
Servant 1
Experiment freak. Should’ve just buried the lab with him in it.
Servant 2
Need to drag him to the carriage now.
Outside the lab. A black Academy carriage waits with a single driver on standby. Those two servants drag Ren forward, barely conscious, his feet dragging on the dirt.
Servant 1
Careful with it. Council said not to bruise him more than he already is.
Servant 2
Doesn’t matter. Look at him—like a wet leaf. He won’t last a week.
They shove Ren into the back of the carriage like discarded laundry.
Servant 1
Honestly, waste of a carriage. Should’ve shipped him in a crate.
Carriage driver
[from the front, calm but firm]
That’s enough.
The servants blink, taken aback. The driver’s eyes are sharp, serious.
Carriage driver
Council said to deliver him in one piece. That includes his dignity.
Servant 2
[muttering as they walk off]
Dignity? With that thing?
Servant 1
You’ll see. The Academy will rip him apart.
they close the door and leave
Carriage driver
[murmuring, almost to himself]
Poor kid… whatever you are, I hope you make it out.
Carriage driver
* starts the carriage *
The carriage rocks gently. Ren stirs. He flinches as if in pain, blinking against the sunlight peeking through the curtains.
Ren Valencia
[softly]
…Where…
The driver, hears the whisper through the front window. He leans back slightly, offering a small smile.
Carriage driver
You’re awake. That’s good
Ren Valencia
[voice trembling]
W-Where… are we going…?
Carriage driver
To the Academy. You’ve been chosen to study magic, little one.
Ren Valencia
[confused, eyes wide]
…Study? But… I’m not… I didn’t do anything…
The driver doesn’t answer immediately. Instead, he reaches behind his seat and slides a small paper-wrapped bundle through the window.
