Chapter 22: House Beneviento Part 1

Previously...

Ethan dropped the flask that read W. Rosemary as it contained the head.

Ethan: What the fuck?!

He looked at the flask with Max beside him.

Max: What the shit is this Duke? Is this some kind of hoax?
Duke: Oh no, this is Rose's head inside the flask. She has been divided in 4 flasks and each given by the lords of this village.

Ethan looked at him.

Duke: You beat Lady Dimitrescu and acquired the head, you need 3 more and you're next nearest stop is House Beneviento which is occupied by Lady Donna Beneviento and her doll Angie.
Ethan: And if we get all flasks does that mean Rose is back together?
Duke: Yes, now go. You don't have much time before the ceremony.

Ethan looked at Max and then grabbed the flask.

Ethan: Come on, let's go.
Max: Alright, onto House Beneviento we go.

They then marched to their next location.

"Execumancer's side"

Execumancer was then showed his room by Heisenberg.

Heisenberg: And this is where you will be residing until your powers returned, even if they did you're still welcomed in my factory anytime you like.
Execumancer: Thanks Heisenberg, say... Can I ask you a question...
Heisenberg: Of course.
Execumancer: What are you doing with those corpses in that restricted area?

Heisenberg went silent.

Heisenberg: It's top secret, I can't explain it to you.
Execumancer: Aww come on man, don't you trust me?
Heisenberg: I would tell you but-
Execumancer: But what? Tell Miranda or someone else close to her about it, you know I hate Miranda as much as you do and even the Messiah doesn't like her. So you can tell me this and we'll keep it a secret just the two of us.

Heisenberg never told anyone about his plan but since he and Execumancer got close the last few days, they're bond growed. Meaning Heisenberg trusted Execumancer after the meeting of the lords.

Heisenberg: Right this way, come with me...

Heisenberg lead Execumancer to one of the restricted areas to show what he does with the bodies.

Heisenberg: You see that body over there that's about to fall on that huge container.

He pointed at a corpse that fell down inside the container.

Execumancer saw that inside the container, the corpse was added a huge drill for an arm, a metal armor and a breathing mask to it's face.

Later the corpse was picked up and dragged away.

Heisenberg: Before you came in, I was tested by Miranda as one of her Cadou experiments and I gained the powers to manipulate metal and inhuman strenght. Still I hated what she did to me and I want revenge. She calls this family of hers which consists of me, that blood sucking cunt and those other misfits. I want out of this family. So I collected dead corpses of villagers that were killed by lycans and I began reanimating themz in other words I'm assembling and army of my own, I call them... Soldats..
Execumancer: And the whole thing you're trying to do is-
Heisenberg: Rebellion against Miranda, once I kill her I'm the one to rule this village, those villagers are nothing but weaklings, I will free them from their grasps and they will worship me as their king.

Execumancer smirked as he had an idea.

Execumancer's mind: Hey, you still here?
???: Yes, what do you want?
Execumancer's mind: Ignore Miranda and the rest of her minions, I'll give you an army in the form of Heisenberg.
???: You mean the one that let you stay in his factory?
Execumancer's mind: Yeah, he and I are close in touch and he trusted me enough to tell me that he's made an army and will start a rebellion against Miranda.
???: What are you up to?

Execumancer smirked maliciously.

Execumancer's mind: Heisenberg can be a key ally for spread corruption, if we help him with this rebellion against Miranda and then we make him swear an alleigance with us. That way we will have more reinformence with his Soldats, that way Max and her crew will be torn flesh and bones from the shear numbers.
???: Are you sure he'll join our cause.
Execumancer's mind: I'm sure, after all we both hate Miranda like him, so we kill the bitch and he joins us meaning we both get what we want.

The Messiah laughed.

???: I always liked you Execumancer, I love the idea. Make sure to explain Heisenberg the details and report back to me.

He disappeared from his mind.

Heisenberg: Hey! You ok?
Execumancer: Yeah, was talking with the Messiah about something.
Heisenberg: What's it about?
Execumancer: Well for starters.... You...

"At Ethan and Max's side"

The 2 were almost there.

They were currently crossing a field of weird looking flowers.

Ethan: I bet we're almost there.
Max: Alright, we better hope it's not as chaotic as Lady Dimitrescu.

Suddenly Ethan saw someone...

Ethan: Mia...

The figure looked like his wife, Mia Winters and she was holding something.

Mia: Ethan... We're living out a great life, we're married and we have our first child. Won't you join us...?
Ethan: What?

Max was confused.

Max: Who are you talking with?

She saw there was no one as if he was talking to himself.

Suddenly.

???: Max...

She turned around and saw Bo on a business suit as behind him was a church that had a sign that read "Wedding of Max and Bo"

Bo: Today's our special day...

Max was confused.

Max: Bo? Why are you in a suit.

Ethan followed Mia out of the field but she disappeared in thin air.

Ethan rubbed his eyes.

Ethan: Mia... Rose...

He turned around to see Max as she was walking all the way into a cliff.

Ethan: MAX NO!!!

He then went into the field and grabbed her and they both got out.

Max: What happened?!
Ethan: You were about to fall off if I did catch you. What were you doing?
Max: I saw Bo, my boyfriend in a business suit as he was ready for "our wedding".

Ethan was confused.

Ethan: I saw Mia and Rose but when I got out of the field they disappeared.
Max: The field. The flowers must've given us hallucinations.
Ethan: You're probably right, come on we don't have much time.

They then continued their path to House Beneviento until they stopped to see an old fashioned elevator.

Max: What's an elevator doing here?
Ethan: I don't know but I bet this leads us to Beneviento's house.

They then entered inside the elevator and pressed upwards as they were going up.

The lights flickered a bit along the way.

In the end they got to their destination and got out of the elevator.

They saw this house.

Max: Is this House Beneviento?
Ethan: Yeah, otherwise why wouldn't it be isolated in the middle of nowhere?
Max: Fair point, let's go.

"At Execumancer's side"

He and Heisenberg were in a room talking.

Heisenberg: So what you're telling me is that you and this Messiah that you explained to us before the meeting started want to help me with my rebellion against that bitch Miranda? Why?
Execumancer: Not only we hate her as much as you do, but we think you and you're Soldats can contribute greatly on our quest for spreading Corruption.

Heisenberg was silent.

Execumancer: We will support you and give you the power you need to kill Miranda, in the end you will then join us and put your army under the Messiah's service.
Heisenberg: Right and I told you I want to rule as king of this village.
Execumancer: That's where the good part comes, you will be given control of this dimension with the free will of doing whatever the hell you want but you will still be a part of our armada. Unlike Miranda who treats you like shit and bosses you around, the Messiah treats me and my supporters with respect and let's them do what they want.

Execumancer then extended his to Heisenberg.

Execumancer: Do you accept the terms of the conditions? Join us and you will be given whatever you want in the end, you'll be more untouchable when the Messiah rules.

Heisenberg smirked.

Heisenberg: Fine, I trust you. In fact you're exactly what I need in this revolution, you have the fire power to support the army.

He shook Execumancer's hand.

Heisenberg: You help me take care of Miranda and I will help you spread your Corruption.
Execumancer: It's good to hear you're on our side.

They pulled their hands away and they got up.

Execumancer: So... What's the next step of your revolution?
Heisenberg: OUR revolution my friend, and please you have the permission to call me by my first name, Karl.
Execumancer: Alright, what do we need to do now?

Heisenberg moved around the room before he stopped.

Heisenberg: My Soldats are nearly complete and ready for deployment, and you and your Messiah joining the fight on my side is much more sweeter.

He looked at Execumancer.

Heisenberg: We need 2 more things before we launch our attack on that bitch.
Execumancer: Which are?
Heisenberg: Step 1: We get Ethan's daughter Rose from Miranda and we can use her powers against her.

Execumancer was intrigued.

Execumancer: We use her powers? Does that mean we sacrifice the kid's life to kill Miranda?
Heisenberg: No, I know how we can use her powers without endangering her life.
Execumancer: And what's step 2?

Heisenberg only Smirked after Execumancer's question.

"House Beneviento"

The duo entered inside the house to see a room where there's a small table with a basket filled with wool and needles and next to the table was a rocking chair.

Ethan: Alright, I say we split up and look for the flask.
Max: You sure? This seems suspicious.
Ethan: It may seem suspicious but what other choice do we have?
Max: Alright, I'll cya when I find anything.

They split up and began looking around the house.

Ethan was on the down floor and checked the guest room.

Max checked a hallway but there was nothing.

Ethan then walked on the stairs and checked all the rooms on the upper floor.

Ethan: Fuck there's nothing here.
Max: Hey Ethan! I found something.

Ethan heard Max's voice and came down the stairs.

Ethan: Max where are you?
Max: In another hallway.

Ethan went to the direction her voice came from and saw Max as she was standing next to another elevator.

Max: I found another elevator in the house.
Ethan: Great, there's another floor in the house, but since there's nothing around here we might as well check what's down there.

They pressed the elevator button and entered inside the elevator as it took them down to the lower floor of the house.

They got out as they then moved forward and walked down a hallway.

They saw a huge door and approached it.

Ethan opened it as it was revealed to be a doll making laboratory of some kind.

In front of them they saw one of Rose's flasks as it was on Angie's lab whom was sitting on a chair.

Max: There's the flask.

Ethan went to get it but suddenly the lights went out.

Suddenly they heard Angie talking.

Angie: Oh I've been waiting for soooo long... I'll make a much better daughter than Rose. So please won't you 2 stay with me... Forever....?
Ethan: What?
Max: What did she mean by that?

The lights went on and revealed that Angie disappeared with the flask.

Ethan: What the? My weapons are gone?
Max: Hey, so are is my energy bracelet.

They turned around to see the door locked.

Max: We're locked in!

To be continued....
