READ DESCRIPTION

| Chapter 16 |

Nightcrawler heard the scream and went running, his mechanical heart was pumping as he had used his pursue to get there quickly.

But to his horror laid a broken plant gootraxian, no wings as it looked like her back had been clawed and torn open, large teeth tears on her legs, arms, ears, and flowers sprouting all over those wounds. The goo laid in a massive puddle of her own blood.

Nightcrawler made a loud teapot like screech and ran to the corpse, now holding her in his hands, blood soaking his glove and his robotic claws.

He was grieving, you could hear it, his cries, his anger. Soon enough it clicked.. who else would of been responsible for this then..- Dr Quinn. Nightcrawler made an enraged cry as his green lights turned to red, he would carry Plantix and took her to the secret cave, resting her on the stone counter? Shelf? Thingy, in the middle of the candles.

"Why would she do this..- no matter." He spoke coldly and ran off, leaving Plantix to lie there.

Two black silhouettes watched the Nightcrawler run by. "..Such a scary beast.." One spoke out. "I wonder if he's hurting?-" The other responded. Both seemed to have rather feminine squeaky voices, and they just continued to watch before vanishing into the darkness..

Seems like they were newcomers

Toxic Lang stared at their creations, a sinister grin was plastered. "Oh my babies..- my dear.. babies.." they walked around Mochi, Leotryn, and Melon'Berry

Mochi face palmed, shaking her head as it made mechanical noises. "Master..- just what are we supposed to do?.."

Toxic Lang looked a Mochi with a wider toothier grin, revealing those razor sharp teeth. "Collect the final ingredients of course!!~" Toxic Lang laughed.

Melon'Berry huffed. "About time.."

Leotryn growled, not wanting to be apart of this they had folded their arms and walked off. Toxic Lang only watched, still having a sinister grin. "You may leave.. Leotryn.. but we have something that can always be able to track you.."

Leotryn bumped into a tall figure, looking up it seemed to be 10'5. 8 limbs.. 6 eyes.. It was..- a spider?!.. soon a crystalized tail with 3 different crystal on it, which were pastel red, white, and light blue.. the exact crystals resembling each goo.. each.. event. The fusion snarled, letting out a distorted growl as it was mixed with all three of their voices. The stitched goo backed up.

"Ooh I forgot you haven't met!~ This is *insert fusion name* and they're quite the treat!~" Toxic Lang welcomed, moving to stand right beside them.

The fusion gritted its teeth, knowing the task it needed to do as it watched Leotryn walk away.

Quinn stood in her lab, trying to figure out everything that's been happening, soon enough she heard the doors opened. "Toxic Lang what have you been do-" Quinn turned around, only to freeze up. In front of her stood Nightcrawler, a pure enraged lizard, lashing his tail around as if he was a whip. "..What. Have you done to Plantix.." He began to approach and Quinn finally gathered herself, backing up.  "Nightcrawler..- what- what are you talking about?"

He stared down at her before grabbing her by the shirt collar, and lifting her up. Soon enough he slammed her into the other glass window, causing her already given glass cuts to open more, getting bigger. Quinn cried out in agonizing pain. Soon enough Nightcrawler still didn't feel satisfied and he took his robotic claw. Opening the tips of his claws and slashing her right eye, Quinn had no time to react and protect herself so her eyeball was slit open and her glasses were broken. Nightcrawler grinned with delight and threw her back down on the ground.

"You're a nasty person.. Quinn. Guess karma is a bitch." The half robotic lizard spoke out before leaving her laying against the grass. Soon enough Quinn passed out due to the amount of blood loss

Sinox perked her ears up, catching the scent of a corpse which smelled like rotten plants?- the glowing translucent bone like fox followed the scent and wandered into the secret cave, which lied the flowerless and bloody, very.. bloody.. corpse of Plantix.

The ghostly pup stood there on Sinox's shoulder letting small whines and whimpers out and staying close to its protector.

"It's okay bud.. we'll fix her!" Sinox lifted her mask up to give the pup a reassured smile, helping the little soul calm down.

Sinox watched the blood soak into the stone, leaving permanent shiny yet dark red to cover up the grey coloring like a blanket. A very.. metallic blanket. "Who did this.-" Sinox spoke softly, going over towards Plantix and lifting her up. The fox then turned to the pup. "We'll fix her.. come along.." the ghostly pup barked with happiness and ran out of the secret cave, Sinox followed along, holding the Plantix in her arms, bridal style.

Tiger Shork stumbled across a gootraxian, a fluffy..- fox like.. shark.. when they were trying to stay hidden, only to stare 'em face-to-face.

Ghost Shork stared at the Tiger Shork. "Hello friend!" He smiled. Tiger Shork seemed nervous, but grabbed his paw. Ghost Shork soon dragged Tiger Shork to meet the others. A Cerberus conekat, a fox holding a soda can, and a collar wearing fox. Charem, Tristan, and Conekat!

"We've been here, hiding from the mess.. but they want revenge on their replacements." Ghost Shork frowned. "But I'm trying to convince them not to!"

The old gootraxians stared at one another, growling a bit.

"Well..- at least we're reunited!-" Tiger Shork spoke out.
