Dominari in Timore (BrOhm)

Chapter 21

(Ohm's POV) (Whaaaaat)

Mea Culpa. Mega Mea Culpa.
I stood slightly stunned as Bryce disappeared from sight as he left the base. Guilt festered in my stomach, overtaking my emotions. This was all my fault, everything was. I hadn't wanted any of this to happen and yet I couldn't help but feel as though Bryce and I getting together caused this. If only I had just ignored him then maybe things would be ok. I don't know when, but somewhere along the line I truly developed feelings for Bryce, and now I regret ever meeting him. It's all my fault he's hurt, my fault he's stuck in this, and my fault that he hated me.

A hand on my shoulder caused me to flinch and turn around, knocking me from my guilt session. My eyes widened in fear and shock as I saw him standing there.

"What have you done, Ryan," I shivered as he said my name. His voice sounded strained and enraged.

"W-what do you mean?" My voice was quiet. His grip on my shoulder tightened, causing a small whimper to escape my lips.

"You are so very lucky you're important; why I ought to really punish you for what you've done. But, I do have a way for you to fix this." He grew a bone chilling grin, immediately giving me a very bad feeling.

"Come on, son, we have work to do," my father said.

(Bryce's POV)

I headed straight for the lake as soon as I recovered the door to the entrance. My mind was filled with thoughts of Ohm. I'm not sure what possessed me to kiss him, but I know it felt right. I had a feeling that whatever the people like Marcel and Cartoonz went through down there, had to have happened to Ohm as well. I felt guilty well up inside me. I jumped to conclusions and I got everything wrong.

I looked up as I realized I had made it to the lake. Stars shined brightly, twinkling in the dark blue sky. Moonlight bounced off of the Crystal clear water, illuminating and reflecting the plants around it. I knelt down near the edge, studying my reflection in the water. My face was bruised and cut in various places. My usually bright blue eyes were dull and tired, my pale skin easily pronouncing the ugly colors of the cuts and bruises. With a deep breath, I stuck my hand in the water, ripples disturbing my image. I was going to make things right.

The sun was just beginning to rise when I finally made it to the warehouse. I walked slowly, and stopped quite a bit. Even after using the lake to give me some energy, I was still pretty weak. I banged on the door and then leaned on it. Almost immediately the door opened and I almost fell with the force that was used to open it. Adam caught me, preventing me from hitting the ground. He squeaked in surprise when he saw me, and quickly brought me over to the couches. He called for Marcel and Cartoonz and as soon as he finished they were in the room.

"Oh my god, Bryce! Where were you? What happened to you?" Marcel demanded.

"Calm down, I'm alright," I said sitting up and leaning on the arm of the couch.

"Bullshit," Cartoonz spoke this time, "you look hell. Where have you been for the past week?" He asked as Adam began some bandages on the worst of my cuts. I sighed.

"Alright, alright. I went back to the MA base. I didn't tell any of you because I knew you would tell me no," I said, flinching slightly as Adam put on another bandage.

"And with pretty good reason, I mean for god's sakes Bryce, look at you," Adam finally joined in, finishing with the bandages.

"Look, I know it was stupid, but it was worth it," I replied, standing up.

"Really?" What did you get then?" Cartoonz asked.

"Information. Anyways, look I'm gonna go upstairs and take a nap. See you guys later," I said and then walked upstairs. As soon as I entered the room, I checked to see if I somehow still had Ohm's file. To my utter astonishment, I pulled out Ohm's file from my waistband. With a small triumphant grin, I sat down and opened the file.

File Name: Edwards, Ryan
Code Name: OhmWrecker
Experiment Number: 001

Description: After countless tests, we believe we have finally accomplished our strongest experiment. It has taken years, but this has been the pinnacle of our research. We have figured out how to control both the experiment's electrokinesis and electrical absorption. We have also maxed out the power of his attacks...

Other: As the son of the Millennium Assembly's leader, we have also made sure to...

I stopped reading as soon as I read the last line. The leader's son? Oh, poor Ohm. I can't imagine what he must've gone through. And with who his father was, I can only figure that he has to do whatever he said. That's it! It all makes sense now. I closed the file and stood up. The only thing left to do? Get Ohm out of there, and take them down once and for all.
