Fatal Attraction
AN: First and foremost, I do not own the Disney characters within the Gargoyle series. However, I do own the female character that will come to be known as Lilith. I am not making a profit from this so please don't sue.
Darkness and a cold chill occupied this place constantly. Never was there a flicker of light, be it artificial or natural. Well that is for the past few years. This room had gone untouched since the last incident. An experiment gone wrong that resulted in many casualties. No one dared to return to that place because of the horrid vision it brought them at night. So it was left, barred shut from being used and kept away from prying eyes. In time this room's location faded from memory until recently. A drawn out creak screamed into the darkness that inhabited this room and broke the silence that had loomed here for so long. A faint click followed and from above lights flickered until their current was strong enough too stabilize its illuminating purpose. Entering the room was a face that was none to popular with the masses of the great city that was New York and that was to be expected thanks to the heinous acts he committed putting the lives of other on the line. That mans name was Dr. Anton Bartholomew Sevarius, the brilliant but megalomaniacal and immoral geneticist. He initially worked for Cyberbiotics, but was persuaded to go to work at Xanatos Enterprises at some point before 1994.
"Come along men, we've got lots of work to do and so very little time to do it in."
"Well it wouldn't be a problem if we didn't have to bring this heavy ass crate with us. What the hell do you have in this thing anyway?" The man asked with a rather annoyed tint in his voice.
Clearly as any other would have guessed he was new to these kinds of jobs. After all when your dealing with a man like Sevarius and are being paid the amount of money you usually don't see from escort jobs or transport one would know it obvious that you just don't ask questions. Why should it even matter anyway? You took the job knowing there could be big consequences to follow, so it's kind of late by this point to voice your curiosity. However, the estranged doctor was all too proud to give this man an answer. Why not? Inside that crate were works of his genius and soon enough he'd have his darling son back to protect him and aid him on exacting his revenge on the enemies he had made years ago.
"Oh I was just dyeing for you to ask." He beamed with an excitement that he had not displayed to anyone in god knows how long. "Open the crate gentlemen!"
The others who accompanied the doctor on this trip were tall men and built for action. Their bodies hidden away from others in black body suites with bullet proof armor and they were heavily armed. They had once worked for Xanatos. Some had even been there for the first staging of events that were supposed to get the Gargoyles to pledge their loyalty to the man only to see it literally crash and burn in their faces. They stood back from the large crate and shot at the chains that held the sides up only to watch the side fall to the ground to expose the treasures he brought along with him. The new comers eyes widened in both fear and awe.
With an overly smug look on his features he walked over to the glorious sight and stopped when he came next to the leg of a very large statue.
"This is my beloved creation and son Little Anton. He was created for the sole purpose of protecting me and exacting my revenge on those who crossed me…but that monstrosity…that thorn in my side prevented him from doing just that!"
His left hand shook as all the rage was returning to him. Just thinking of what Thailog had done, how he had betrayed him after giving him the gift of life enraged him so. Easy to see that Sevarius really didn't believe in what goes around, comes around when it went against him. Poor sportsmanship really, but he'd get over it or so he'd like to believe.
"Ok then what the heck are those?" the curious guard asked while pointing to two cylinder contraptions.
They stood at the height of six feet and were filled with green liquid. Not just that but floating inside the liquid in one of the contraption was a female body curled into the fetal position and the in the other was a male posed the very same way. The mentioning of said contraptions seemed to calm the doctor's temper and brighten his spirits once again.
"Those my good man, are the cure to my dilemma…you see within their blood holds the cure for what made my Little Anton turn back to stone. But before you ask, no I do not intend to use both of them to bring the two statues back to life. No, I will use the female to resurrect my son and he will be allowed to crush that statue into nothing but dust. The male will be kept as a precaution incase there was something I missed. In fact he will be released when everything is in place and will start up the electrolizer that will cause the molecules within the stone to…stir if you will. During that time he will then drain the females capsule deliver a fatal cut and push her to said device which will pull her blood from her body, mingle them with Anton's atoms and when sun sets he will be of flesh once more!"
Ok, this guy was seriously creeped out by this point but he just kept silent and got to work with setting everything up so that the now unconscious man could activate it later. Little did they know, someone was on to their plan and didn't like it one bit.
