I gave up friends, family, and the outside world to create a future for my plants – my bioengineered family. The constant negative backlash over bioengineering forced me into my safe place, my world inside Green Lab. Along with my carnivorous babies, I grew, changed, and thrived as the outside world destroyed itself. My latest experiment, becoming a part of the chain, both absorbing carbon and creating my own form of oxygen, may be the only way to survive the destruction. I look in the mirror and wonder if I will ever leave or want to leave. I become more and more like my babies every day. For now, we are safe inside Green Lab.
Thankfully cockroaches did survive the disaster. Yum! Lunch!
