Episode 6
*once they got home, Hecro n Leah were waiting*
Hecro: Hey Thrax, what happened? You just shot out of the shop like there was a fire or something
Thrax; It's Jared.
Hecro: Wht's wrong with him?
Ozzie: *told them tearfully everything tht had happened*
Leah; 8gasped8
Ozzie: The doc says if they don't find the antidote, he'll... *the phone rang*
Thrax; 8answers8 Hello/
Spryman: *with a loud voice of a typicaly spoiled brat* Where's Jones-Roja? I need him here! It's an emergency~!
Thrax; 8held the phone away from his ear8 He's not well at the minute.
Spryman: Well give him some meds n bring him ovr. This is something urgent~!
Hecro: *mouths* Who's tht?
Thrax; 8mouths8 Spryman
Ozzie: I'll handle him *puts it on speaker phone* Spryman, this is Jones. Jared reli can't come to work. He's reli very sick.
Thrax; 8massaged his temples trying to get rid of that ringing in his ears8
Spryman: How sick is he?
Ozzie: He's having a very high fever n is in the hospital
Spryman: A fever? There's nothing a fever meds can't cure! Just let him chug dwn a whole bottle of it n he'll be better!
Thrax; Now you listen here you shrimp, my son is fighting for his life unless we find a cure.
Spryman: Fighting for his life? A cure? What are you talking abt? It's just a fever, what's teh big deal?
Ozzie: *slams his hands on the table n yelled at the speaker phone* WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL?! THE BIG DEAL IS YOU!!!
Hecro: *winced. He knew frm experience tht wen he started yelling like tht there's no stopping him*
Leah; 8gathered the kids and left the room8
Spryman: Hey, is tht how u talk to a mayor...
Ozzie: Shut up! SHUT THE FUCK UP!! You're just a fucking spoiled brat who needs a good damn spanking in the ass!! My son is dying because of tht "no big deal" fever of his n for all I knw YOU could've POISONED him!! He has been poisoned n now is going to die unless he gets an antiidote n all u care abt is urself!! What is the urgency this time? Video games? TV series? FUCK U, SPRYMAN!!! *slams his hand onto the speaker phone button to hang up n flung the whole phone onto the floor before falling on his knees n sobbing*
Thrax; 8knealt beside him and held him close8
Hecro: Woah...You reli showed him something there, Oz
Ozzie: I don't care! He can just fucking lose the campaign n rot in hell for all I care! I...I... *wailed out loud, tears falling uncontrollably*
Thrax; 8held him close and rubbed his back8
Hecro: So...what are we going to do now?
Thrax; Find who did this and get the cure.
Hecro: But we don't knw where to start, who to look for
Thrax; 8bit his lip8
The Mole: Hullo~! *sticks his head thru the kitchen window*
Thrax; 8jumps back in surprise8
Hecro: The hell?! Wht are u doing here?!
The Mole: Septimus sent me, under Spryman's orders
Ozzie: Wht does tht spoilt kid wants? Arrest me for yelling at him?
Thrax; 8snarled8
Mole: Wow, Septimus wasn't lying wen u said u gave Spryman one hell of a wake up call. U actually sent him crying to his room, u knw
Thrax; 8rolled his eyes8
Mole: Anyways *climbs in thru the window into the house* before u sent bawling n crying Mama, he called to send me ovr to find out abt the person who poisoned ur son.
Hecro: How would u knw how to find them?
Mole: Baby, there's nothing in Hector I don't knw abt
Thrax; 8hissed8
Mole: I've chked the office out first, especially the trash site, n sniffed out its contents. Apparently ur son drank something tht was meant for Spryman
Leah; 8muttered8 Typical.
Ozzie: Then...tht means someone initially someone had wanted to assassinate Spryman
Mole: Yup, u got tht right
Thrax; 8felt his spikes shoot out8
Mole: I have traced the source of the poison. It should be ard the neighbourhood. Follow me *leaps out of the window*
Ozzie: Sorry, Leah girl. Can u babysit?
Leah; Ja,
*Hecro, Ozzie n Thrax followed The Mole*
Leah; 8watched as they left8
Hecro: So...wht did u do to all the ppl Thrax killed? U cleaned them up good?
Mole: I just make the dead guys look like drunken fools on an argument gone wrong. Anybody can do tht
Thrax; 8shok his head8
*after they jogged for a while with The Mole n took a bus the last half of the way, they found themselves in the bowel area*
Thrax; 8looked round8
Mole: My senses tell me tht it's tht direction *pointing at an old building* Knock urselves out. I'll be here wen u need me
Thrax; 8narrowed his eyes at him8
Ozzie: *takes Thrax's arm* Pls, let's go.
Hecro: Yeah, we need the antidote
Thrax; 8lead them in8 Something about him isn't right.
Hecro: He helped us so far. He's the lesser of two evils
Thrax; 8didn't seemed convinced8
Ozzie: Shh! Look!
Thrax; 8looked over8
*they were above some sort of a chemistry lab in which there were a couple of scientist working some solutions, n the operation was headed by two familiar faces*
Hecro: *whispers* Hey, isn't tht Greg and Unther frm Drix's post?
Thrax; 8narrowed his eyes8
Ozzie: Who?
Hecro: Greg n Unther. They work under Drix's post in the brain. I met them a couple of times. Wht the heck are they doing here?
Thrax; We're gonna find out.
Ozzie: Yes, let's
Hecro: Ambush style, then?
Thrax; 8nodded8
*the three of them armed with their body weapons n jumped in, crashing the party*
Greg: Woah! Wht the...Hey! Roja! Jones! Wht are u doing here?!
Thrax; 8grabbed him by the throat8 The antidote.
Greg: *chokes* Wht are u talking abt?
Ozzie: Don't play dumb with me! The antidote for tht poison u initially wanted to give Spryman!
Hecro: We knw wht's going on here! U were going to poison the mayor, bt my nephew took the fall instead of him! Now hand ovr the antidote!
Thrax; 8held up his claw8
Unther: It worked, Greg! The poison worked! Just like she said!
Ozzie: She? *sticks out a tentacle blade n aimed at his throat* Who is this she ur talking abt?!
Greg: Keep ur mouth shut, Unther! Remember the cause!
Thrax; Listen I don't care what you do to that little bastard but give us the antidote.
Greg: Not in a million years, bub. Long live Hector! *grabs Thrax's claw n stabbed himself with it*
Unther: *followed suite, jamming himself into Ozzie's tentacle blade*
Hecro: Wht the...?
*everyone else did so as well, grabbing a scalpel n slit themselves*
Thrax; Fuck not again.
Hecro: Wht the hell is going on here?
Mole: My, my, aren't we in a predicament?
Thrax; 8snarled8
Ozzie: You call tht a predicament? Its a disaster! Now how are we supposed to find the antidote?
Mole: No worries. My nose will knw
Thrax; 8muttered8 Yeah right.
Mole: *goes ovr to sniff the bodies out, then sniffed extra long at one of the scientists* Mmhmm, yes, there is a smell here. Hmm *sniffs ard the area like a dog before it led him to an underground shaft* Right here, boys. Has to be here
Thrax; 8shoved him out of the way and started looking8
Ozzie: *looked as well*
Hecro: Hey I think Mole is right! I found it! *pointed at a safe tht looks like a mini refridgerator*
Thrax; 8cut it open8
*inside the safe revealed a set of test-tubes containing yellowish liquid*
Ozzie: We'll take all of it, just in case
Hecro: And I'll go up n take some of the poison. Maybe we can analyse it in the lab
Thrax; C'mon hurry.
*Ozzie quickly took the antidote while Hecro got a sample of the poison*
Mole: All done? U guys can go ahead now. I'll clean up the mess
Thrax; 8led everyone out8
Ozzie: *picked up his cell n dialed to the doc, telling him abt the antidote*
Hecro: *hauled a cab to get them to the hospital*
Thrax; 8to the driver8 Punch it.
*they drove at almost top speed n got there rather fast despite traffic*
Hecro: *pays the cab* Keep the change
*the doc n the nurse trainee met them at the front*
Thrax; 8hands them the vials8
Doc: Good, good. Now u all wait in the waiting room. I will administer the antidote
Thrax; 8collapsed on the seat8
Ozzie: *sat beside him, worried*
Hecro: *paced ard a little*
Thrax; 8bit his claw8
Ozzie: I hope the antidote works. I'm so worried...
Thrax; So am I my love.
*moments later the doc came to them with a relieved face*
Thrax; 8looked up8
Doc: It is done. The antidote worked. Your son's fever is gone in an instant n he is recovering fast. He'll be able to be discharged in a day's time, judging frm his recovery
Hecro: Oh, thank Hector
Ozzie: *cried happy tears*
Thrax; 8sighed in relief8
Ozzie: Can...Can we see him?
Doc: Yes, of course. Nurse, take them to the boy's ward, will you?
8the nurse nodded and lead them to the room8
Jared: *was in some sort of crib n the attendants there were removing the ice out of the crib to replace them with warm sheets, pillows n blankets*
Ozzie: *waited for the attendants to finish doing their job before coming to Jared, taking his hand*
Thrax; 8came up behind him8
Hecro: *join him at the other side of the crib*
Jared: *slowly stirred n saw them* Mommy...? Daddy...? Uncle Hecro...? Mmh...How long was I asleep?
Thrax; Few hours my son.
Jared: *looks ard* Wht am I doing here? Where is this plc?
Ozzie: You're in a hospital, baby. You had a vry high fever, bt ur OK now
Hecro: Yup. Doc says you'll be out in a day's time
Thrax; 8stroked his hair8
Jared: How's Spryman? I'm sure he's bound to have emergency calls. *chuckles* He always does tht. He must be upset I didn't show up
Thrax; 8scoffed8
Ozzie: Now u dont worry abt Spryman, OK? Mommy will handle this. U just have ur rest. Alright?
Hecro: Yeah, dont mind Spryman. He's just a kid. He'll get ovr it
Thrax; Rest now my little fighter.
Jared: OK. Oh, can you help me get my paychk frm Spryman? It's payday tomorrow
Thrax; Sure.
Ozzie: *has a plan up his sleeves*
Hecro: We better go now. U rest, tiger. We'll bring u home tomorrow, alright?
Jared: Alright *yawns n went bk to sleep*
Thrax; 8smiled softly8
Hecro: *took out the poison sample n gave it to the nurse* Pass this to the doc. See if he can analyse it along with the antidote
Nurse; Yes of course. 8left to find the doctor8
*they soon hauled another cab n went home*
Thrax; 8massaged his forehead, knowing he'll need a drink8
Ozzie: U alright, love?
Thrax; Just stressed
Hecro: Same here. I could use a drink a little
Ozzie: Yeah, maybe have ur brothers ovr as well
Thrax; If I can find them.
Ozzie: Last time I saw them, they were at the liver area, although I'm not sure if they're still there
Thrax; No they move from place to place.
Hecro: Yeah, I remember tht. Bt don't u guys have some sort of link or some kind to contact each other?
Thrax; That's only with biological siblings.
Ozzie: Tht's true. Wen Hecro was going to labour, I felt his pain, like a phantom pain of sorts
Thrax; 8nods8 Finding them won't be easy.
Ozzie: What with the young inexperienced system here in Hector, most definitely
Thrax; 8sighed8
