Chapter: Kitealla Reveals the Second Serum Pre Quest
"There is something else," the creator cleared her throat, "hidden in my lab are a couple of prototypes for a second SerumOrb, a next level dose type of thing."
"Holy Crap!" One threw her head back holding her hood in place with a hand on each side.
"It is best we find it before they do." the Creator noted.
"You go hard." Four (Peggot) laughed, "I mean releasing those Beasts."
"She did not!" One snapped, "She was framed by someone from within the Royal Council. That is why we must save her research, this person is clearly up to no good." those present looked to one another.
"So should we get going?" Kinder smirked.

Chapter: The Creator's Lab Mission
Once inside the small group began sifting through and collecting papers from the Creator's studies.
The Creator was fiddling with a seemingly stuck drawer. She had asked Sage to put an enchantment on it, needing the correct arrangement of jiggles and pulls on the door before the lock could release. Onced opened the Creator pulled a cube containing an orb from within and placed it on top of the desk.
One couldn't help but stop to look over the orb, a deep black seemingly solid orb aside from the occasional orange swirl that pulsed through.
"I am going to find something a bit sturdier to put it in." the Creator whispered before moving to the other side of the room.
Suddenly, another group of people burst through the door, recognized by those as the head scientists of the Research and Sciences department in Kingdom II.
"Grab what you can, burn all the rest!" the Creator shouted realizing there is no fighting this. The gathoocs reacted to this declaration with laser guns, shooting at the squad members.
"Grab the Orb!" One yelled as the squad was scrambling to gather what they could without being hit.
"Don't harm them!" the Creator and (Kinder) yelled as six (Valentine) shot a blast of energy in frustration.
The head of the department charged for the Orb on the desk. (Kinder) reacted quickly diving for the desk and snatching it up moments before he could touch it.
"Now, now. Hand it over and we will pretend as if this lab was not just broken into by a squad already on thin ice." (Kinder) shook her head humored then called to the group,
"You guys ready to burn this place down?"
One shot the first fireball as the group moved to retreat. Kinder moved to join them but was stopped by a firm grip around her arm and suddenly she couldn't move a muscle, as if she had been frozen. The owner of the hand pulled her hood down and forced her to turn to him giving a small gasp. Kinder managed to dig her thumb into the Orb, discreetly popping it open.
"You are all making such a mess." he yelled and reached to grab the orb from his hostage, but Kinder had already overpowered whatever magic he was using. With a blurred movement the contents of the orb were dripped into her eyes.
"No! Kinder!" the Creator screamed breathlessly. Mr. Gathooc released his grip in surprise. Kinder used the opportunity, although blinded, to stumble toward her squad. The Creator reached out, pulling her to safety. They were almost out the window when the creator yelled out in pain, falling to the ground with Kinder.
"Creator!" One backtracked to help them up. The creator had been grazed in the side by a seething scientist. Kinder, who was regaining her sight threw the creator to One, preparing to shoot one of her own fireballs in defense.
"Kinder, Don't!" the Creator warned reaching out and grabbing her wrist to yank her back. She was too late.
A large explosion erupted from her outstretched hand, blasting through the window the squad had just escaped. The trio were pushed back by the force, deciding to use this momentum in their escape.
"Run, go!" One heaved them both by the collars, not taking the time to look back at what they had done before speeding off.
