Over some days, Something strange started happening. Power readings have come back poor, a insufficient amount of power has struck the Laminax Laboratories.

The lights dimmed red, some lights blacked out, the Crystals soon had a blood-red glowing aura surrounding them.

Loudspeaker:
"Kzzzt any personnel. Resort to Nearby Evacuation Sites 2 - 4 and 5 - 7 Kzzzt immediate safety Kzzzt. Gootraxian Kzzt tendencies have Kzzzt Kzzzt%"

The loudspeaker cuts off and releases a 3 second loud noise that sounds like distorted white noise. John, stunned by the sudden loud sound, gathers his belongings and rushes out of the Cafeteria as it went into lockdown.

Distant gunfire and violence can be heard amongst the Manfucturing Zone as well the Crystal Zone. Luckily, the LLDF secured the Gates before a swarm of aggressive Carnelines could swarm the main Facility.

John's POV:
"Goddamn. Chaos is spreading. Hopefully the Elevators still work."

John rushes to the putative of the facility and sees some Guards rushing his way, who ignored his presence.

John's POV:
"Huh, they must be focused on the Crystal Forest."

John ran past the corner to his surprise  sees a injured Dark Protogen with a cracked visor and is quite in pain, possibly attacked by those previous guards.

Dark Protogen's POV:
"Back away vile human! Your kind has done enough to me!"

The Dark Protogen growls at John, expressing fury and rage.

John's POV:
"Woah! Watch it there listen, I mean you no harm!"

John dodges the Protogen's swift yet weak strikes at him.

Dark Protogen's POV:
"Who are you anyway?! And how come your no harm to me?!"

John's POV:
"Im John, and i help your kind unlike any other human. Because I understand how your species is like and how you feel"

Dark Protogen's POV:
"Huh, is that so?! Because I knew a scientist who used me just because he is of higher status than me"

John suddenly looks surprised at this response.

Dark Protogen's POV:
"When I found out that he was secretly using his guards as test subjects, like me, i found him on his way back after what he did with his bodyguards, and then I pounced on him and tore his guts  out from which I proceeded to choke him his intestines and then I later through him on Manfucturing Assembly to be crushed flat like paper."

John carefully and seriously listens unto this Protogen's Backstory. From which he proceeded to give his response.

John's POV:
"You were a Superintendent were you? Micheal Johnson? From the Security Divison?"

Dark Protogen's POV:
"Yeah, used like a puppet for that damnable, cursed scientist. I'm called. Bloodmere for my gruesome brutality."

John's POV:
"I can see"

John takes out a specialised synthetic syringe, flowing with a black chemical with some blood-red glowing particles.

John's POV:
"Here, stick this in your arm. It's a Dark Protogen Medinical Syringe, heals any robotical wounds on Dark Protogens within 5 hours"

The Dark Protogen expresses a distorted surprised face before a cheerful face on their visor.

Bloodmere's POV:
"Really? Thank you! Thank you so much! I dont say this often, but i owe you one"

John's POV:
"No need, you don-"

Bloodmere's POV:
"Yes. You will, you have done me a favor, so one day, I will return it. Hopefully involving killing. "

Bloodmere laughs at a moderate volume like a psychopath. John quietly laughs, a bit disturbed by the Dark Protogen's mind.

John's POV:
"Anyways, got to go, this Power Outrage violence is just increasing over there. "

John points from the direction he came from.

Bloodmere's POV:
"Hehe, well, see ya John. Hopefully our paths cross again in bloodshed"

John gives a disturbed nod before walking towards the Elevators which thankfully work.
