On our way to the professor's home, he told me about Francoeur's feelings, "He knows that you won't take him the way he looks now. But he doesn't want to give you up either. To make this work, he asked the professor for help."

"Since when does he know a professor?"

Raoul explained how Francoeur became what he was, telling me the whole story about it. Francoeur however, was already there.

Through the ceiling, he got in. But instead of being alone, he met his old friend Charles. The monkey seems to be surprised to see him. The flea didn't waste any more time with him, walking towards the doc's lab. Charles panicked, as Francoeur began to mix potions. The monkey couldn't stop him from combining several vile with another. But the worst part was that he also drank his own experiments. The assistant of the professor, he knew that this was dangerous. Nothing he made could stop this flea. He took one portion after another into his body, feeling...odd now.

We were too late to stop him either, standing in front of the door now.

Not only was there a smashed van and a car, but also the door was damaged. "He is here alright...ladies first." Typical Raoul, he hid behind me while I stepped into the building. I was amazed at the rainforest the doc has inside his house. "Hello?" I shouted, hearing something rustle in the bushes. On instinct, Raoul grabbed on to me, "Don't hurt me!"

Charles appeared, relieved to see us.

I gave Raoul a skeptical look, "Be careful, his fleas might bite you."

The monkey took my hand and pulled me alongside him. At the lab, I found Francoeur unconscious, "What did you do?!" I checked the surroundings, seeing all empty bottles lying around. Only the monkey could give us an answer, "Charles, what happened?" With a card, he made it perfectly clear. "Raoul, help me carry him to the car!" "Why what is going on?" "Francoeur took too many portions at once. There is no time to lose; he must get to the hospital as quick as possible!"

Click!

No doubt about it, this was the sound of a revolver. Frightened, we looked into the direction of the forest. Victor appeared under the trees, aiming at us, "Finally, I can get my revenge."

"No please, let him go!" I begged. Raoul and Charles raised their hands in defeat.

"This monster took everything from me; it is only fair to return the favor."

My eyes darkened, "You would really go this far?"

"Oh darling, of course I would."

While Victor kept on talking about this past, Raoul had a plan. With a few gestures, Charles understood and get what he wanted, without gaining the attention from Maynott.

"I will be the star of Paris. I, who had saved France from this evil monster!"

My eyes showed nothing but disgust at the man, "Francoeur is no monster...you are!"

At that moment, Raoul turned his plan into action, „Now Charles!"

The monkey threw tiny things at Victor, only to drop into the pond next to him.

Plop! Plop! Plop!
