Into the Light [Completed]

Chapter 13

Romeo heard a familiar groan coming from the bed that held Hadrian and Cassie. Hadrian had started to stir a bit. Winslow had walked into the room as Hadrian began to stir and ran over to hi owner and her lover.

"Winslow, no!" Romeo exclaimed, although a bit hushed as to not disturb Hadrian and Cassie.

Winslow did not hear him and proceeded to hop onto Hadrian's chest and curl up into a small fluff ball. Hadrian's eyes slowly opened as he blinked a few times in an attempt to wake himself up. He noticed the small feline curled up on his chest and chuckled. He started to pet Winslow on the head, causing him to purr in satisfaction.

"I'm sorry, did he wake you up?" Romeo asked.

Hadrian shook his head and chuckled, "No, he's fine. He does this all the time."

Winslow let out a little 'meow' as Hadrian sat up in the bed and stopped petting him. This caused him to butt his head on Hadrian's chest as he begged for more attention. Hadrian sighed as he started to stroke Winslow's head again. He looked over at Cassie with a glum look on his face.

"What happened to us?" Hadrian asked.

Romeo scowled, "That damn freak slammed us onto a wall and knocked the both of you and PAMA out."

Hadrian looked over at PAMA who was still on his recharging cord. His eyes widened in shock. How could Otto have been that powerful? Where did that power even come from? Why did it inly trigger like that when they brought Mevia and Harper into the cell.

"We need to be way more careful with him," Hadrian pondered.

Romeo nodded, "Agreed, for now you and Cassie should rest. PAMA will be just fine, once he's fully recharged that is."

Hadrian nodded as he laid back down and wrapped his arms around Cassie's waist. Romeo noticed that Cassie still had her glasses on. He snapped his fingers and Cassie's glasses were taken off her face before being placed on the night stand.

A couple minutes later, PAMA's screen lit up. His screen had the three loading dots as his system started to boot up. A few seconds later, PAMA's face appeared on the dark green screen. His animatronic body starting to move, almost as if he was stretching out.

Moments later, Cassie also began to stir a bit. Her emerald green eyes fluttering out as they were adjusting to the dimly lit room. She turned over in the bed and looked up at Hadrian. Her body was sore and ached as she tried to sit up in the bed.

"Ow," Cassie winced.

Hadrian took a hand to her back and helped her sit up. Cassie gratefully leaned on him and looked up at him.

"Thanks babe," Cassie said.

Hadrian kissed her forehead, "Anything for my little princess."

Cassie giggled a bit at this, running her index finger along his jawline. Romeo sighed at this in amusement.

"If you two are almost done with your little lover's session, we should be trying to figure out what to do about Otto," Romeo said.

"True, he's only getting stronger," PAMA pointed out, "and we can be getting knocked out when he's pissed off."

Cassie shrugged, "Well, what are we supposed to do? It's not like we can just disable his powers. And restraining him doesn't work because he'll just keep breaking free."

Hadrian thought about that for a moment. Cassie had a point; Otto would only break free from his restraints ad fling them into a wall again. But at the same time, that was the most they could do at the moment. Unless...
