Chapter 2:3 - Sir Richard Halford Part 2

While they're talking about their lives, it's easy to see that Richard really is very dedicated to his work; finally that he's already a devoted scientist.

"You know Arkline; nothing will make me as happy as a child in gay when I prove that dreams really do come true. May I see my lovely samples?" Richard says and asks.

Randall puts the briefcase on the desk and he opens it for him. When Richard looks at the samples, he becomes to pout. He seems to be puzzled.

"I ordered you to retrieve all six of these, I only see five. Where's the other one?" he asks.

"My apologies, Sir. I lost one during the chase. The police force tried to resist me in their deadly trap. Fortunately, I escaped."

Randall still wants to explain, but Richard turns his back on him. There's a silence. After a minute, he continued to speak:

"You know Arkline, there's one thing that you should remember when following an order: an order is an order. It is constant and never-changing. What am I going to do with you?"

Randall only stares at him without any word spoken.

"Well then, the next time I give you an order, you should eliminate any resistance. But I'm thinking. . Hmm . . . . right now. I'll put an end to any intruder who may disgust our plans. With the help of my lovely samples, I must able to create, not our own resistance, but the resistance to all who opposes us!" he says in exclamation that he punches his desk.

"Hand me the samples. Accompany me to the laboratory."

"Yes Sir."

Randall accompanies him to the lab. He knows that he will do something with a product of his genius mind. After several minutes of strolling around, they came by the front of a huge blast door.

"Arkline, this is it. The moment has to be awakened. Behold!"

He punches in his secret code and that opens the huge blast door.

Randall is surprised. He can't believe what he is witnessing right now. He can't believe that for ten years of staying in Halford, he have never seen anything like that in his very whole life!

"Say hello to my buddy, The Prototype Weapon #101, or what I call it, The Beast", Richard introduces him to a huge, horrible, biological monster.

Randall can't move his whole body. To what he's staring at is a 7-foot monster, weighing in at 350 pounds, muscular, ripped, and stitched. Its face looks like worse than Frankenstein, for it has numerous stitches on the skin. Its eyeballs are purely white with no touch of pupils. Its mouth is drooling with green slime. Its nose is flaring as it breathes and its ears are both sharp-edged. It has clubbed hands and feet and dressed in a black, ripped overall. Randall turns at its back and there he sees its huge, pointed axe sticking on.

"Well Arkline, what do you think of my monstrous gift for Rushford? Oh, you cannot cut your tongue. Maybe this will help you believe that dreams really do come true, hahaha!" Richard laughs so hard while he's aspirating the contents of every vial of sample onto the cultivating machine next to the monster.

Randall just watches the whole thing happen. The contents of the Bio-Serum enter through the veins of the monster, until it empties itself.

"Yes! Yes! Beast, comply with your master."

Randall stared at the monster cluelessly. Suddenly, it moved its left foot, and the right foot next. Then, it moved its arms vigorously and untangled all the tubes connected to it. Finally, it shook its head to release itself out of the capsule-like cage.

"Beast, the Halford is your destiny; the Rushford is your enemy. You are destined to destroy your enemy and avenge me!" Richard shouts with grace.

Randall stands back for he's terrified. That's the creature that will close the Rushford City for good.

"Rrrrooooaaaarrrr!!!" the monster growls as it equips its huge axe.
