I Feel You

Chapter 12 - Uncomfortable Positions

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀{ Special Chapter }

☆

To our surprise, there were people in the room that we were about to enter.

A lot of middle-aged guys with comb-overs, lab coats and goggles were puttering around looking at beakers and books and writing down notes.

I swear, Black Star and I stood there for maybe 2 minutes until they finally noticed us.

"Those are experiments, are they?" A guy with salt-n-pepper hair that covered his eyes and had a blanket of sweat on his forehead. "No, there's only two boys and a girl, and they look nothing like those two." His buddy, a guy with straight black hair that went to his chin, and stubble that decorated his jaw and chin.

"I'll kill you all, because I am the almighty Black Star!" Black Star days triumphantly.

"P-Please don't kill us! We are only professors working involuntarily to Kronos!" A little man with only hair on the sides of his head wailed in fear.

I frowned. "Kronos? Typhon is the boss, isn't he?" I asked, stepping inside the room. "N-No! He isn't! We will tell you everything if you don't kill us!" Sweaty Forehead pleaded, his hands in front of him, trying to protect what's left.

And so he did. Black Star wasn't exactly happy that there wasn't any bloodshed, at least after the giant spider.

Kronos was the old greek titan of Time, meaning he can only fast forward time or slow it, but can't travel through time, like Professor Who or something, he was asleep. He wasn't awaken, and it took a powerful Shinigami, Weapon and Meister blood to awaken him.

"So that's why they took Kid?" I asked. They all nodded, there was about 6 or 7 of them. A man with snow-white teeth and black hair, spoke up. "They also took Bryan just in case either of them died during the injection!"

"Injection?" Black Star frowned. "We, the Professors, had to inject a imperfect numbing serum in their bodies, so they wouldn't get away, and take samples of their blood each day. It's lucky you guys came when you did, or else Kronos would be awake by tomorrow." Thick Glasses explained, showing us a beaker of pink liquid. "Is that the numbing serum?"

He nodded. "It's supposed to start in the legs, but we had to hurry up because your friend, Death The Kid, nearly escaped if the door hadn't been locked."

"He almost escaped? Maybe he did..." I frowned. "He must've, the serum wore off twenty minutes ago, and the door was kept unlocked." Said White Teeth. "But the last time I injected the serum he seemed pretty depressed, even asked me if I could inject the serum wrong."

"Why would Kid do that?"

Sweaty Forehead sighed, whom actually goes by the name Richard. "It's what Kronos does, he may be asleep, but he's powerful. He can still control time. It's only been three days since we took Death the Kid captive, but with Kronos' powers, to Death the Kid it probably felt like months. For the first few hours, when he escaped, it must've felt like a few days, he was still waiting for his friends. But after 2 days, he already gave up. He didn't want to live because he thought you and your friends were never coming and hated him."

I gasped. "I can't believe it... We have to find him, fast!"

This place may be fancy and whatever, but it just seems off. It weirds me out.

"Onee-san, I think I found something!" Patti wailed, and I turned my head to meet her, she was standing on the ledge of the balcony, on her toes and peering into a window, I became frantic. "P-Patti! G-Get off of that! You could fall and I'll never let myself live it down!" I ran to her and grabbed her legs. "What did you find?" I finally asked once I knew that Patti was safe on the ledge, looking in the window. "It's a strange room, like a-" Her eyes widened. "OH MY DEATH!"
