Chapter 8: Research Scientists take over Chem lab The Chemistry lab had been temporarily commandeered by a team of government scientists for reasons unknown. We do know there was a small commotion behind the toilets earlier today and a crate was seen being moved into the lab. More info will come. Written by Jullian "Amazing! It's genetical structure is like nothing I've ever seen before!" someone exclaimed. I struggled to my feet, which for some reason hadn't turned back into my real feet. I was still in Dark Dragon form! I looked around and realized I had been put into a cage in the Chemistry lab. The windows were blacked out and Alexis was nowhere to be seen. I let out a roar and tried to bash the bars open. However, when I touched the bars, electricity shot through my claws. "Kid, you'll surely receive the Nobel Prize for this amazing discovery!" a scientist was talking to Arno, who was standing grinning in a corner. Something about him seemed strangely wrong. For a second, a fleeting image of Saevio appeared in my mind. The dart stuck in my chest was paining me slightly. I built up energy inside my mouth and launched a fireball at the bars. They were scorched, but still intact. I groaned. "I think it's a dragon!" a red-haired female scientist with a hair bun remarked in Chinese. Obviously a scientist from China. "English, please." someone mumbled. "Sorry." the female scientist apologized. "We're in a bit of a tight situation here." the Dark Dragon noted. I rolled my eyes. When a scientist reached a syringe into my cage, I snapped my jaw at him. He backpedalled into the Chinese scientist, who was holding a tray of petri dishes. She dropped the tray and the first guy fell on her. His face turned red as he realized what he had fallen on. "SE LANG!!!(This means 'pervert' in Chinese)" she screamed and started punching the poor guy in the face. I couldnt resist snickering. After a few failed attempts at poking me with the syringe, the guy finally wisened up and taped the syring to a long pole. I stamped the syringe to the floor and smashed it and he groaned. "Can you speak?" someone said from behind me and I jumped. The Chinese scientist was standing behind me, and she was holding a syringe full of black blood. My blood! "What the..." I stared at the syringe. "You CAN talk!" she exclaimed. Alexis...... "Get away from me!" I screamed as Arno advanced on me, smiling. His incisors were exposed. "Now that Ivan is gone, I can finally be with you!" he grabbed my wrist and pulled me off towards the boy's dormitories. Painfully. He's lucky its the middle of the night. I was thrown onto Arno's bed and he grabbed my shirt's sleeve. "Saevio said I could have fun with you when Ivan was gone!" Arno grinned. Wait a second...... Saevio!? What the hell is going on here!? Arno ripped my shirt's sleeve off. Back to Ivan...... A crowd of scientists had gathered around me, some taking notes, some flashing cameras at me. I curled up in a pile and pretended to sleep. I flicked an eye open to find the Chinese scientist staring into my open eye. "We've only found that dead dragon before, but this one is alive!" some of the other scientists were talking excitedly. Arno was gone, probably back to his room to tell his parents about me. "Dr. Stenworth, I think we should let it go. It looks peaceful enough." the Chinese scientist told another scientist. The other one seemed to be older. "You saw the cameras. It left that kid alone!" she pleaded. "Look, this is a scientific discovery of the century. We can't just let it go like this, Mei Ling!" Dr. Stenworth replied sternly. "You haven't used my first name in ages." Mei Ling stared at the other scientist. "This is serious. We'll be paid heaps for this find and the archaelogy division will be wanting to examine it." Dr. Stenworth added. At the same time...... Alexis....... I screamed and tried to kick Arno off. He flew into a wall, but got back up uninjured. He proceeded to rip off my trousers and fling them into a wall. "You're not my first victim, ya know." Arno grinned and pointed at an open drawer. There were quite a few sets of girl's underclothes inside. Gosh...... "You're sick!" I tried to punch him. The punches didn't seem to have any effect and Arno ripped off the front of my shirt. Back to Ivan again. Mei Ling seemed to want to stay behind and she did. The other scientists all left to temporary rooms in the campus's dormitories while she stayed in the lab. I overheard her telling the last one to leave, "I want to do further examination on it." She stared into my eyes and moved towards the lock of the cage. "I'll get into trouble for this......" she sighed and took a block of steel from her pocket. She pushed it into the lock and the door swung open. "I can't just leave an innocent beast in a place like this, can I?" she smiled at me. "You sure? You'll be chased down for letting the experiment loose." I looked at her. "Yeah, but innocent people or beasts should never be locked up for no good reason. I learnt that from my dad." she looked glumly at the ground. "He told me that scientists should be helping people by discovering new things and substances, some to make medicine with." she added. I stared at her for a second. "Come with me. I'll take you somewhere where you can do good research." I smiled at her, thinking of the supposedly technologically advanced Omega Sector in Maple. She immediately looked up. "Really?" she asked. "Yeah. But first, I need to save Alexis." I closed my eyes and concentrated. The world around me seemed to shift as I peered into Alexis's mind. She was being raped by Arno in his room! I looked back a few minutes and found out that Saevio was involved in this. "Get on my back and hold on tight." I pointed at my back. Mei Ling eagerly got on my back and I flapped my wings hard. She held on for dear life as I shot through the air towards the boy's dormitories. By pure luck, I spotted Lacus taking a midnight walk in the park and settled down next to her. I pulled the surprised Lacus onto my back and took off again. Mei Ling stared at Lacus and she stared back. "Cous?" Lacus looked happy. I grunted as I dodged a tree. I could see Arno's room now and I hovered in front of his window. Lacus poked me. "That you, Ivan-kun?" she asked. I nodded and nudged the window. Mei Ling seemed surprised that I even had a name. Lacus climbed onto my head and peered in. She gasped. "Alexis-san......" "That settles it." I bashed the window with my tail and took out the wall too. Rubble flew out as I reached a claw in and grabbed Arno. He looked real scared. "You've just crossed the line." I roared and threw him into the air effortlessly. I then reached my claw in again. Alexis shouted, "Wait! I need to put some clothes on!" There was some scrambling sounds and Alexis came out, dressed in Arno's clothes. He would be surprised. She jumped on my claw and I put her on my back along with the other two. "Hello, quite a crowd here." Mei Ling grinned. "Who's she?" Alexis asked. "Meet my cousin, Mei Ling." Lacus smiled. I swung my head around. "Cousin?" I was curious. "Yeah, my aunt migrated to China and married there. Their family used to come around for visits until she got a job." Lacus explained. I took a good look at Mei Ling. At a closer look, she seemed part Japanese. "Sorry I didn't write to you for so long, Ma forgot to ask what university you transferred to." she scratched her head. A few blocks away, Arno landed in the campus's swimming pool. A big splash ensued and the caretaker scuffled out of his shack and started whacking Arno on the head for being out during curfew. |
