*This story involves fictional places, fictional people, and fictional objects.*

A typical day for Chris and Daryl would be waking up, carry on with their carefree lives, and to sleep. But a journey they discovered is going to be unleashed to the maximum...
Chris and Daryl were two good friends, almost brothers, that lived together. They were orphans, so they had learnt to be independant since a very young age. They just finished their studies at The Arts Academy. Chris and Daryl had a small little project they planned. It was a All Round America trip. They had a mode of transportation, and they decided to record their experiences at the states of America. They finished about 3 states in 2 weeks, which makes it quite hard. They stopped at Florida, at a small little hut. They just settled down, and then they got ambushed by two guys in jumpsuits.
"We're all done. They're in the Isolation Room. Perhaps you may want to introduce us to them," a man said. "Nah, I want to look through the new recruits," said Karl. Remember Karl? He now has 2 right and left hand man. Kline and Dean. Kline was the bootlicker. He sucked up to Karl, making sure that he will be the safe one. He may seem to be the one who suggests every activity, but he will never be the first one to volunteer. He wanted Karl to put him in charge of Chris and Daryl. On the other hand, Dean is a cool and silent guy. He is very mature, and this was a drastic change from his original personality. He was a outgoing ladies' man, but after getting caught by Karl, he accepted the fact that he was never going to get out and became like how he is like now.
In the meantime, Chris and Daryl are stuck in the Iso Room, and the Iso Room resembled somewhat like a room in the asylum. There was no door, no window. The room was small, enough to fit 5 people. They woke up with a start and Chris said, "Where is this...?" Daryl looked around. There was indeed, nothing. Chris and Daryl laid there, looking around helplessly.
Karl looked through the 5 recruits and told the other Nowheremen to stay inside and guard them. Karl strolled out, heading to the Isolation Room with Kline and Dean in hand. Karl stopped outside the Isolation Room, leaving Kline to activate the door. Kline grinned, and opened the door in a flash. Chris and Daryl, finally exposed to light, narrowed their eyes in pain. They were starring at 3 black figures. Karl stepped in and said, "Welcome. Here's a note before starting my speech. You ARE NOT ALLOWED to leave the compound. If you do, you will find yourself a stranger in the world." Chris and Daryl began to open their eyes and saw the vague figure of Karl. Karl then said, "You are now a Nowheremen. You shall work for me..." Chris and Daryl looked in horror at him.
Karl, although being a mean boss, knew who to trust. He told Dean to be in charge of the boys. Kline was very upset. Karl told Kline to go with him to the NR(New Recruits) Room to modify them. Dean led the 2 boys to the small changing room. Along the way, he said, "You guys may be very shocked to know that you won't be able to leave here and see your family. Well listen to me. I came in here 4 years ago, and I learnt to accept reality. You guys should, too. This is a place without emotions. Learn to control emotions." Dean went on to explain the jumpsuits, the goggles, and the computer screens found along all the corridors. Then he said, there will be a duty roster. Chris and Daryl calmed down a little. Dean said that Kline was bent on torturing the NRs, so Karl made a correct choice in putting me as their NWM I/C. Dean knew they won't be able to get used to the environment, so he told them to treat this as a holiday. Daryl, being the younger one, broke down. Dean was confident in bringing them to their feet.
Meanwhile, at the NR Room, was Karl telling Kline to inject the chemical into the boys. Chris and Daryl changed, and were told to try the goggles. The 5 boys met with them and Dean was also in charge of the 5 boys. The 5 boys introduced themselves. The first boy said, "Hey Chris and Daryl, I'm David!" Then the next two boys, seemingly to be brothers, said, "Hey Chris and Daryl, we're fraternal twins. I'm Daniel, and he is Danny." The next boy said, "Hey. I'm Charles." The last boy was a cheerful and bubbly boy. He said, "Hiya guys, cheer up! We still have each other! Oh, I'm Allan." Chris and Daryl were happy to have a 7 person team. Dean was happy that they could fit in so well.
Karl called for a meeting. Karl told Dean to take good care of his team. Kline received another 7 recruits. Among them, 3 were very hostile towards Dean's team. They were Joe, Rayde, and Ethan. Kline was happy to have such a competitive team. Kline and Dean were friends when they entered, but Kline changed drastically. Slowly, they were opposing against each other. Karl didn't care about the conflicts but told them to work hard. Dean could sense extra pressure in Karl's voice. A journey for the 7 of them unfolds slowly...
