Changed: Deep

Chapter 36: Stains of the Blue Monsoon

[Prima's Pov]

"What am I looking at right now? What happened here?" I asked as I walk through the hallways of the deep labs, the white latex flooring now replaced by blue latex. Blue latex goo is splashed all over the wall of the hallway, as if a fight has occured. "I lost the blue latex beast somewhere around here. It's a subspecies of black latex, but I am not expecting it to consume and replace this amount of white latex this quick. It's only been twenty minutes. Is it safe to assume that you found your rival in terms of latex properties?"

We passed by a broken down window, and I looked through it to realize that it's the garden room. The blue latex has reached the garden room and covered the grass, and all the blue apple trees have lost all their leaves. Doctor K hopped across the window and into the garden room. He turns to look at me and reaches his right paw forward. "Do you need a paw?" I titled my head to my right and I looked down to my severed limb. "I would love to have another paw right now, but about helping me get across the window? No thanks, I'll stay in the hallway to keep an eye out of anything strange."

I noticed the computer workbench sitting on the corner of the garden room, and there's a box sitting on the workbench. I then felt a tug on my left hind leg, and I look down to see a blue latex paw hold on me. I gently reached for the hilt of my Muramasa with my left paw as I try to free my foot paw off, wiggling it to loosen the grip of the paw.

As I was trying to pull my left foot paw off from the grip of the blue latex paw, I noticed a blue latex wolf charge at me. I have no time to pull my blade from it's scabbard, and the blue latex wolf managed to punch me on my visor. The impact made me recoiled, and the blue latex paw from the floor lost it's grip on my hind leg. "Why hit me? You should have thought first before hitting me." I stated as I ready myself for the next attack of the blue latex. The blue latex beast charged at me again with it's left fist raised.

I quickly pulled out my Muramasa from it's scabbard to parry the incoming punch, slashing the fist of the blue latex beast. The blue latex beast flinched from the parry, and I immediately thrust the blade of my Muramasa through the head of the blue latex beast with only my left paw. I used my strength to rip through the neck of the blue latex with my blade, severing it's head from the body. The blue latex beast collapse to the floor of blue latex and it melted with the floor.

I pant as I noticed Doctor K hopping across the window of the garden room, stepping on the hallway and looking at me. "Are you alright? I heard commotion but I was too busy searching for the arm prosthetics. I got the arm prosthetic, and got myself a new lab coat." Doctor K reaches underneath his lab coat and brings out a right arm prosthetic. He approaches me and reached out his right paw to me, holding the right arm prosthetic. "Can you attach it for me? I can't attach that on my own." I asked and Doctor K gave me a nod.

He began to unwrap the bandages over my severed limb, letting them fall to the floor. Doctor K gently attaches the right arm prosthetic on my severed limb, and I felt the red latex of my body merge itself with the right prosthetic as if the prosthetic is a red latex itself. Looking at my new right arm and paw, I folded each digit one by one to get myself used to the feeling of my new right prosthetic arm. "I like this new addition to my body. Since we're already here, should we visit the white latex behemoth to check up on it?"

I asked as I pass my Muramasa to my right paw to hold, cleaning the blade with an elbow crease wipe on my left arm. I gently returned my Muramasa to the scabbard. Doctor K gave me a nod, and we continued on to the hallway. We eventually reached the double doors leading to the large room, and I carefully pushed the doors opened. We were both welcomed by a bigger blue latex beast hitting the giant white latex wolf head of the Behemoth with a large paintbrush.

The tip of the paintbrush is soaked in blue liquid, presumably blue latex. "You don't belong here. I'm giving you a last chance to live. Leave or we'll consume your latex." The giant white latex wolf head slowly shook his head and began to growl at the big blue latex beast. "You left me no choice." I watch as the blue latex beast swiped his giant paintbrush upward. The paintbrush managed to pull out the Primagen visor that the giant white latex wolf head is using as a voice box. I quickly made my move and ran for the visor, using my body's flexibility to jump high.

I grabbed the Primagen visor with my two paws before landing on the floor of white latex. I turned to look at the giant white latex wolf head. "Behemoth? Can you give us an arena for a battle?" I asked and the giant white latex wolf head slowly gave me a nod. The giant white latex wolf head disappeared into the floor of white latex, and the big blue latex stood still while looking at me. "I see you have brought the prey that I have been looking for. I sense great power of the red latex within you. Are you the true king of the red latex empire?"

"You can say that, but what's this empire thing? Are you saying that the red and blue latex will be building their own empires ruling over the black and white latex?" I asked as I approach Doctor K, still holding the Primagen visor on my two paws. "Yes, an empire. An empire to rule over nature, where black and white latex thrives across the globe. A world where every latex exist and will freely be able to live and be maintained by the latex with higher intelligence, like us."

"What should I call you?" I asked again as I reach out both my paws to Doctor K, letting him hold the Primagen visor. "You can call me Monsoon, monsoon of the blue latex. And you are?"

"Prima, Prima of the Primagen. I am sorry, but I have to turn down your offer. The world isn't ready yet for black or white, red or blue latex assimilating the next generation of humans. The world needs peace, not predators." I quickly draw my Muramasa from it's scabbard, and I did my signature stance. "Does nature have to make it so that red means evil? Here goes nothing."

Monsoon raised his paintbrush before slamming it to the white latex floor, violently drawing on the white latex floor as if it's a canvas. He drew a puddle on the floor, and a giant blue latex wolf head rise from the puddle. The Behemoth did the same, raising from the white latex floor to face the giant blue latex wolf head. The two began to bite each other, and Monsoon quickly charged at me. With my Muramasa raised up and ready, I waited for the perfect opportunity for Monsoon to charge close enough so I can slash his paws and disarm him of his giant paintbrush.

The blue latex beast suddenly thrusts his giant paintbrush forward to me, and I quickly deflected it with my red blade. The soaked tip of the paintbrush unfortunately brushed against my paw, and it covered both of my paws with a blue latex liquid, like a paint. Upon being covered by blue latex paint, my left paw immediately began hurting. My left paw burns and stings in pain, and my cybernetic right paw feel weakened. I didn't know the blue latex has the ability to inflict burn like this.

"It stings, I know. Want to know why? The blue latex has been genetically modified as a sub species of black latex to be improved. They made blue latex to be half weaker than it's predecessor, but we have the ability to leech on the energy, or life of an individual. They also have made it so that the blue latex assimilation will not erase the memories and preserve the human host's ability to think as human. Don't you think they made the blue latex a bit overpowered?" Monsoon chuckled at me and pointed his giant paintbrush at me. I smirked and chuckled as I return my Muramasa to it's scabbard. I then reached for my own visor, pulling it hard off of me. My red latex body immediately formed a visor, and my body began to melt and drip like glue.

"Thanks for telling me that. You gave me a good reason to murder you." I stated as the blue paint covering my left paw quickly disappear into my red latex arm. I dropped my visor on the floor before drawing my red blade with my right paw and stabbing the visor, breaking it. "I believe that's what they call a bio bot, and you destroyed half of your life support. You're crazy."

Not holding back, I placed my red blade back to it's scabbard and quickly charged at Monsoon, now being twice faster than before. The blue latex beast raised his giant paintbrush in panic to prepare for my attack. I raised my right fist in an attempt to punch the blue latex beast, and he swung his giant paintbrush in an attempt to parry my blow. I quickly stood still and took a step back, letting the giant paintbrush swing in front of me and missing. I quickly held the hilt of my Muramasa with my right paw, waiting for the perfect opportunity to cut his right paw.

Timing it right, I pressed the trigger of my scabbard and it pushed my Muramasa off the scabbard before slashing the right paw of the blue latex beast. I noticed the white latex floor turned to blue latex as Monsoon flinches. "Oh you will pay for my right arm!" A giant blue latex paw quickly raised in front of me, and I immediately sliced it in half. I charged through the severed blue latex paw, emerging from the paw with my Muramasa thrusting for the head of the blue latex beast. Within seconds, the blue latex suddenly separated itself from it's human host.

I quickly swung my red blade towards the blue latex blob on the air, slicing the connection of the blue latex blob to the human host. I noticed thousands of blue crystal like projectiles falling from the ceiling and down on us, but it quickly splashed on me as if liquid as I grabbed the blue latex blob with my left red latex paw. "Gotcha."
