Chapter Twenty one
"I'm still waiting for an explanation." Says syd looking down at Leobus, "and I'm still waiting for my apology!" Vama yells swinging her arms.
Leobus keeps staring at briallene on the rooftop above them, the three finally follow his gaze to where he's looking, Lauren and Sydnie start screaming while Vama throws stones, Leobus leans to the side as he watches doc walk up from behind completely silent, he decides to ignore him for now.
"What even is this one!?" Sydnie yells gesturing to briallene, "a mothabit, miss hill." Doc explains causing Sydnie to jump, "DOC! WHAT THE HE-" -technical difficulties-
"You need Leobus and Vama back at the lab at this hour, and after what just happened?" Lauren asks as Vama drags Leobus towards doc and briallene has his feet pulling him the other way, "yes. You, Sydnie, and the mothabit can come along if you must." Doc answers, "I'll go.. plus I don't feel like staying in the apartment until the windows fixed." Sydnie states and Lauren nods, "I'll go anywhere Leobus goes!" Briallene yells clenching her upper sets of hands into fists as the lower two just flail up and down.
"Ah excellent I was hoping you'd say that." Doc states as a van with the labs logo on the side, Vama opens the door and Leobus climbs in with briallene following close behind, Lauren gets in as Sydnie follows, before Sydnie is in all the way doc speaks "oh and miss hill, we could have gotten you a hotel room until the window was fixed." He explains, "WAIT WHAT!?" Sydnie yells about to turn around but Vama pushes her into a seat on her way in.
"Thank you everyone for your cooperation!" Doc cheers as he slams the doors shut causing it to go pitch black, Vama sits down as her night vision kicks in, she glances to Leobus and screams, "C-Champion! Do you know what your sitting on!?" Leobus who has his eyes closed pats around what he's sitting on, "soft and warm." He states, then a voice laughs, "I'm over the moon knowing you find my lap comfortable~" kellyda coos wrapping her arms around him.
Leobus just keeps his eyes closed and leans back until he feels four hands grab and rip him away, he sighs as briallene holds him close as she yells at kellyda but he isn't listening, Leobus mind over matters himself to pass out for the van ride, it was a good call, when he wakes up he's on his back half on kellydas lap and half on briallenes, Leobus senses danger.
Leobus looks around at the three other people in the back of the van, Lauren and Sydnie look away unable to look him in the eyes as Vama stares down at her lap with a bright red face, this whole van reeks with danger in the air.. lucky for Leobus the van stops and the back doors swing open to reveal doc and Coeal, Leobus sees a chance and takes it deciding to take out two birds with one stone he springs onto Coeal trying to break his skull as first instinct.
Doc gets Leobus with a shock strong enough to power the city for five minutes in a couple seconds causing him so smoke a little.. Leobus rises to his feet and charges for doc as he cranks up the voltage as he gets closer but Leobus keeps marching on until he throws a punch and instead of hitting doc like everyone thought he just broke the remote, Leobus falls to his hands and knees as some blood escapes his mouth trying to catch his breath.
Doc takes the opportunity while he's weakened to grab him and drag him off, "wait in the seating area on the top floor while me and Coeal have something to do quickly." He commands as he leaves and Coeal stumbles behind, the five look at the way they went confused but kellyda takes the lead and heads to where they told to as the others follow.
-back to Leobus-
Leobus gathers himself enough to realize he's back on the table with much much tougher restraints.. now this is a real danger in the air, coeal is in the corner with shadow shrouding his face as he has his right hand on his left arm.. strange, doc then walks in fully dressed like a surgeon, "are you ready for the procedure Coeal?" He asks not even looking at Coeal, "y-yes doctor.." Coeal mumbles with his voice shaking, Leobus begins to squirm and fight trying to break the restraints, doc pulls out a new remote for his collar and gives him a high dosagen of the paralyzing drug freezing him in place.
Leobus can only watch as Coeal forms a blade with his right arm and do something that would completely take Leobus by surprise, he cuts off his left arm just below the shoulder, but suddenly his brought out of that thought and into a much much worse one, Doc readies a large electric saw as Coeal cuts off his arm and begins cutting off Leobus' in the same place Coeal is cutting his, Leobus is nearly on the verge of asking a god to smite him but suddenly Coeal hands doc his severed arm and doc places it to where leobus' are used to be.
Leobus stares in shock and confusion as coeals arm
Attaches itself to Leobus and shrink to match his smaller state like it was his original, and with that the restraints are released and Leobus sits up as he watches Coeal try to attach leobus' arm to himself like he just did with his arm, it's obvious to say the arm rejects him and he throws it as if something hurt him by making contact with it, doc catches the arm and puts it in a case, Leobus springs forward not trusting anything to do with doc and his arm, Coeal slams his foot into Leobus' jaw and throws him into the wall "CHAMPION! I just gave you my arm! And what do you do!? Dive for your own!? If you don't want it so bad give it back! GIVE IT BACK!!" He yells but doc puts his hand out stopping him, "we got what we wanted done. Drop it." He orders and Coeal stands down immediately.
"Now then.. Leobus head to where I sent the others, me and Coeal with catch up as soon as we can." Doc orders, Leobus glares as he holds the new scar on his just as new arm, he opens the door and runs out, "doctor.. I hate to question your judgement.. but.. my arm!?!" Coeal yells tears streaming down his face, "Coeal.. don't act like that.. it's pathetic.. you and I both know that you can only be useful by making Leobus stronger. It's most likely the reason you were born." Doc states cold as ice as he locks the case containing leobus' arm and presses buttons on a nearby screen causing it to lower into the floor and out of sight.
"Yes doctor.." Coeal mumbles lowering his head.
