Chapter III: Ignition

September 28 2020

A Day has passed since the incident at the police station. Desmond was at home fixing his jacket as he needed to get ready for the tritum experiment. Desmond was worried about the experiment taking place in the house since he already ran through the simulation and found tritum to be dangerous. Desmond wasn't sure yet so he walked out of his room and saw Roise and Otto getting the machine ready.

Desmond fixed his jacket as Otto saw him and greeted him.

Otto: Get ready Kid, We're about to change the world.

Desmond gave a smile to him as Rosie was on the computer as Desmond walked towards her.

Desmond: You sure this is safe? I mean we should do it in a open area.

Rosie: Everything is gonna be fine. Dont worry Kid.

Desmond: Tritum is unstable actually and-

Rosie: Relax Desmond, It will be alright. Me and Otto already ran through the tests and it's safe.

Desmond: Okay, Sorry about that. I was only worried about you two.

Rosie: No worries Kid.

Otto called both of them as Desmond and Rosie saw Otto but saw something on his back.

Rosie: What is that?

Otto: A Special Project I have been working on. These Smart Arms are controlled by my brain through a neural link. I can be able to use these Arms to control fusion reaction in an environment where no human can go.

Desmond: Is it Safe?

Otto: It is safe. Now leus begin.

Rosie was on the control console as Desmond was helping her. Otto went near the tritum machine as Desmond activated the tritum machine.

Desmond and Rosie were watching Otto as he looking at the tritum until....

Desmond and Rosie smiled at the success of Tritum as Otto was happy about it. He used the mechanical arms to stabilise the core as he said something to himself.

Otto: The Power Of The Sun, In the Palm of my hand.

Desmond noticed a paper clip moving by itself as he was confused until the clip latched on to the tritum as other objects were moving towards it.

Otto: Stay Calm, Its only stabilising.

Desmond and Rosie were worried as The Tritum was slowly becoming unstable until...

Desmond pushed Rosie out of the way as The Tritum continued to be unstable.

Desmond: Otto, We have to shut it off.

Otto: Stay Calm, It'll be fine.

Rosie: Otto, Listen to us!

A File Cabinet was gonna hit Rosie until Desmond moved her out of the way as it was absorbed by the tritum.

Desmond: I gotta shut it down.

Rosie: Desmond, Be careful!

Desmond was running towards the main power plugs as he was gonna remove it.

Otto: Desmond No!

Desmond was gonna pull the plug until....

Rosie was screaming Desmond's name as his vision was blurry.

Rosie: Otto, Please Listen to us!

Just then glass shattered as pieces of the glass was gonna hit her until Desmond managed to recover and push her out of the way as Otto blocked the barrage using the arms.

Pieces of metal were flying around the tritum as Desmond quickly ran and pulled the plug off the machine.

Desmond fell down holding his injured hands as The Machine was turned off and everything was back to normal.

Rosie ran towards Desmond who managed to get up as Otto was walking towards them.

Otto: I'm so-

Rosie: YOU SHOULD HAVE LISTENED TO US!!!

Rosie was angry as she immediately left while Otto and Desmond were looking at each other. Otto was sad as he deactivated the mechanical arms and looked at Desmond.

Otto: I'm so sorry Kid, I didn't-

Desmond: Its okay.

Otto: Desmond......I should have listened when you two told me to turn it off.

Desmond managed to get up as Otto was looking at him with guilt in his eyes.

Otto: I need to go, We can clean this up later.

Otto walked away as Desmond was watching him. He was looking around the mess caused by the machine until he heard a notification from his phone.

Desmond managed to find his phone under the rumble as it was a text message from Gionna.

Gionna: Hey Ketch!!! Wanna meet up?

Desmond looked at the text as he was replying to her unknown to him, Something came out of the small hole on the wall.

The Spider crawled towards Desmond's backpack as he grabbed his backpack and left the house with the spider in it.

Two hours later, Desmond was walking around times square unknown that the spider was on his backpack. Desmond was walking around until he heard someone calling his name as he saw who it was.

Gionna ran towards Desmond as she gave him a tight hug. Ketch was blushing as Gionna smiled at him.

Gionna: What's the matter Handsome? Cat got your tongue?

Desmond: No.

Gionna: What happened to your hands?

Desmond saw concern in Gionna's face as he told her the reason.

Desmond: I got hurt when I was doing a project.

Gionna: You should be careful.

Desmond:..... Yeah.

Unknown to them, The Spider was crawling around Desmond's backpack as it was moving towards his neck.

Desmond: Where are your friends?

Gionna: Oh They're busy right now.

Desmond: I see.

Gionna: Hey, I'm in a mood for Ice Cream.

Desmond: I'll buy it for you.

Gionna: Sorry again Desmond.

Desmond: Its no problem at all.

Gionna gave another hug to him as Desmond felt his heart beating more as he smiled at her.

Desmond brought for her some ice cream as she smiled at him.

Gionna: Thank you Ketch.

Desmond: Your Welcome Liv.

Gionna and Desmond stared at each other as She gave a small chuckle and looked at him.

Gionna: You look adorable.

Desmond: *Blushes* Uhhhh, Thanks. Your Beautiful.

Gionna had a huge smile on her face as she hugged Desmond again. Meanwhile The Spider was on Desmond's neck as Gionna was talking to him.

Gionna: So I was-

Gionna got a phone call from someone as she answered it. Desmond was looking at her as she felt irritated and annoyed until she disconnected the call.

Gionna: Sorry, I gotta go now. I have some important work to do.

They both got up as Gionna gave another hug to Desmond before she walked away.

Desmond had a huge smile on his face as he watched Gionna walking towards the bus as he waved at her until....

Desmond felt a sharp pain on his neck as he was holding it. The Spider fell off his neck as it crawled to an unknown direction. Desmond was confused as to what bit his neck. Desmond ignored those thoughts as he began walking until he felt a little dizzy.

Desmond: Argh, My Head hurts like hell. Maybe I should take the train.

Desmond immediately got in the subway as he entered the train and laid down on his seat.

An Hour had passed and Desmond was asleep. Six Drunk Thugs were harassing a girl and her friends as they were shouting at them.

Thug: Come on, Let's have some fun.

Girl: Get away!

Desmond was having strange nightmares as The Thug placed a bottle on Desmond's head as he continued harassing the girl.

A Small Drop of Alcohol fell on Desmond's forehead as his eyes were wide open and then....

The Thugs along with the girl and her friends were shocked as Desmond was even more shocked and confused.

Desmond immediately jumped back down as The Thugs saw the bottle on the floor as he glared at Desmond.

Thug: Give me your money!

Desmond: Hey, I'm sorry-

Thug: I said give me the money. I need another bottle because of you.

Desmond: Listen, You dont need to do this.

One Thug was behind Desmond as he pulled a pocket knife out until Desmond felt something.

Desmond: *Holds his head* What's going on?

The Thug was gonna stab Desmond in the back until....

Desmond was confused as One Thug was gonna hit him until....

Two Thugs tried to hit him but Desmond hit a double kick knocking them down.

The Last Thug tried to hit him but Desmond hit a uppercut knocking him down.

The Thugs were knocked out as Desmond was shocked. The Train stopped as He immediately left.
