Ducktales: Journey To Agartha - Act 5

Chapter 40: Capri-Suns

Dr. Anity hummed to himself as he dissected a body. He wasn't even going to use it for anything since he had run out of ideas for reanimating the dead. He was just tearing it apart for fun.

Mark, Gyro, and Gloria were chained in the corner. Pretty uncomfortably at that, it honestly felt like their blood circulation at that.

Hours had passed and Ashley finally returned to the main room of the lab. Her eyes were red and puffy from crying and she kept her distance from Dr. Anity. She just stood in one of the corners with her arms crossed, staring at the floor.

"So nice of you to join us again." Dr. Anity gave a very sassy remark. He didn't look up from what he was doing to know that Ashley had come back.

Ashley didn't respond and just continued to stand there. Hopefully she would be given permission to go home for the day, though she doubted that was the case.

Gyro eyed both Gloria and Mark to say something to Ashley because his pussy ass was sure as hell not going to do it.

Mark took one for the team and tried to get her attention. "Psst!" He tried to wave at her but his hands were still restrained. Whatever, the chains made a noise so that helped get her attention. "Yo!"

Ashley looked over there and sighed before finally walking over to them. "What?" She whispered back.

"Yo queen, that guy is mad disrespectful. Help us get out of here. We can team up against him ya know? I mean, what do you have to lose? He wants to hurt you too."

She glared down at him. "And why should I help you? I can take Dr. Anity down myself if need be and leave you down here to rot."

"Ohhhhhhhh so you do want to take him down! Cool cool! But hey, just in case he actually gets the upper hand on you, I can totes back you up! Pow pow!" He added "Glo might be able to help too but Gyro is pretty useless. But hey! He'd still be outnumbered!"

Ashley paused to think. "... and why should I trust you? You're the enemy. If you want to take him down, then you want to take me down." She bit.

He sighed "Look. Dr. A-hole has Ellie's core processor on him. So that means that she isn't dead dead. Just shut down. I know you two are dating so help me-"

Gyro cleared his throat like the sassy bitch he was.

"Right right. Help us escape and I can easily bring Ellie back for you."

She stayed quiet for a moment before huffing. "Fine. What's the plan?"

"Yayyyyyyy! Okay first things first! Can you unchain us? Or get Dr. A-hole to leave the lab for a bit? Say you want to take us outside to beat us up or something I dunno! Whatever he'll believe."

"...shit. Okay." She looked over at Dr. Anity. "...should I just knock him out or something? There's no way I'm going to be able to get him to just leave."

"I meaaaannnnn you kinda have a streak of easily knocking people out sooooooo..."

She scoffed. "Fine."

Dr. Anity was humming to herself as she approached him, wiping her eyes again to seem more cool.

"Watcha doing, Annie?"

Dr. Anity didn't look up from his work again. "Just discesting this body while I come up with good torture methods for the captives. Have you had a moment to calm down? I'd hate to lose my assistant today."

"Yes, I've calmed down." Ashley didn't have poison on her. The knockout was going to have to be with brute force. "Have you? You were quite angry earlier."
