"See ya, Sanctum!" a woman's voice said, breaking the teen out of his video-game binge. He glanced up from the bright screen and stared blankly at his mother with his strange, cat-yellow eyes. His mother was half out the front door and he presumed his father was already in the car. It was confirmed when he heard the car horn blare out a few times as his father impatiently pressed the stearing wheel.
That was when he figured out why his parents were going out. He had persuaded them to take the night off so he could stay up late playing his video games. Finding his voice, he said; "See-ya mom," before returning his attention to the TV screen a few feet from where he was sitting. Hearing his mother sigh then close the front door, Sanctum turned off the gamestation he was using before switching it over to the news. With a sigh, he grumbled on how another teen was missing.
Hearing the front door open suddenly, he snapped his head in its general direction. His brows furrowed together as he pushed himself off the couch to close it. Muttering on how it came open, he turned around and nearly crashed into a shorter man in a white coat. Cocking a brow, he was about to ask who he was and how he got into his home when he felt pain explode through the back of his skull as somebody hit him. It felt like a pole.
Growling in pain, he struggled to stay on his feet as he collasped to his knees. Tendrils of crimson reached out from his pupils and started to cover the yellow irises. The man's impas-sive eyes watched him as stars started to dance in his vision. Not to mention, his vision was dimming. He last saw the man smirk as the ground rushed up to meet him and his vision blacked.

"Experiment Number 999952? Can you hear me?"
He jolted up at the sound of a voice. He glanced around to see the silhouette of a person. Though, he couldn't see the exact gender of the person. "Yea. Just fine," he muttered as he shifted into a crouching position in the gla-ss container he woke up in.
"Do you remember anything?"
He cocked his head at the question. "Not exactly everything," he muttered again. "Just something about somebody named 'Sanctum'?"
"That, my friend, would me your name."
Sanctum glanced at the person, the sound of the voice. His brows narrowed. "And who would you be?" he asked, suddenly suspiscious. Instead of answering, the person backed off and faded into the light that prevented him from seeing the details of the person. A low growl escaped him before his head throbbed with unexpected pain. Closing his eyes for just a second, Sanctum lost consciousness.

Sanctum came awake again inside the same gla-ss container... on his side. Getting onto his bottom, then to his feet, he watched as men in white coats scrambled around him. Cocking a brow, he watched as one of them turned to him. "Good. Your up. We might have bit of trouble here with getting you stressed," the man said, cocking his head to one side before glancing at a group of people with poles in there hands.
Sanctum glanced at them and let out a low growl as he shifted his stance when they entered the gla-ss container. Crimson tendrils of colour reached out from the pupils as the men attacked him. Another low growl escaped him as his heartrate increased and adrenaline pumped through his blood. Feeling his bones crunch ans shift inside of him, his skin prickled, and his ears creaped up the side of his head.
With another growl, he lunged at the men and when he hit the first man, his hands became paws furred in crimson. Snarling, he bared his fangs as he continued his attack on the men attacking him. Soon, the men retreated with open wounds and bruises. Sanctum stood in the center of the container and his fur was bristling.
"Very good. Very healthy for a Wolf Shapeshifter. Calm down and we'll take you to your new cell once you've shifted back into your human form," the man said before pulling a lever and pressing a button.
Just before Sanctum could wonder what was going on, something covered the container. They looked like blackout blinds. Pacing in a circle, Sanctum continued to growl at them.
