Leo and Sonic went to the office for work.
When he opened the door though, they were surprised to see that no one was there.
Klaus wasn't attending to his plants, Filbert wasn't working on tea, Steven wasn't at his desk, Chain wasn't standing on top of Zapp, no on was there.
"Huh, that's strange. Usually SOMEBODY'S here, but I guess not today. Shall we go check on Zapp then?" he asked his monkey partner as they began to leave towards his place.
Walking down the streets of Hellsalem's Lot, he began to have a strange feeling in his gut.
"Okay, not only is no one in the office today, but I managed to not get mugged yet." he thought.
Sonic was looking at his partner with slight concern, then looked back up and had a shocked look on his face.
He tried to get Leo's attention, but it was all in vain as he still bumped into the person he was warning him about.
With his hand on his forehead, he looked up to see what appeared to be a girl around his age.
It wasn't until she looked up for Leo to wear the same expression as Sonic.
"R-Rose?!" he stuttered.
"Leo?!" she stuttered back.
Sonic grew a look of confusion, one that Leo took notice of.
"Right, you two haven't met before. Sonic, Rosella, or Rose, is my cousin from back where I used to live."
"It's a pleasure to meet you little guy!" she said as she held out a hand.
Being a little flustered, Sonic used his speed to immediately hide behind Leo.
"Oh come on Sonic, you don't need to be scared of me, so you can come out from behind him now." Rose said with a smile.
"Right- wait, how were you able to keep track of him, human eyes can't do that."
Her look then changed to that of a bit of concern.
"Anyway, what are you doing here? It has something to do with your eyes right?" she asked while trying to change the subject.
"Well yeah, Michella's gone blind and I'm trying to figure out how to fix that. Same goes for my eyes too. Anyway, what about you?"
She kept on thinking about what to tell him, until she gave up.
"Fine, I'll tell you, but not here, my eyes changed since your mom made that phone call about what happened to you and your sister."
He decided to drop the subject for now and the three of them began to head to Zapp's place.
"So, where are we going to? A friend's place? Your place?"
"Just a place of one of my co-workers. Neither he or the others showed up today so I'm going to investigate."
They were walking for another 5 minutes before reaching the door.
He rang the doorbell, and one of Zapp's lovers answered.
"Oh, you're that Leo kid my man won't shut up about. Speaking of which, if you run into him, can you please ask him what's taking him so long to come back?"
With his feeling of concern growing, Leo nodded and the woman closed the door.
"So apparently they went missing, after all the dude learned not to keep a lady waiting the hard way..."
They were in silence.
"So...cousin, if it isn't too much trouble to ask, where do you work?"
He was hesitant.
"Will you tell me the deal with your eyes then? I'll tell you about that and my own eyes."
"Right, we are alone right now. So, after your mom called my mom, she went a bit crazy. She kept on ranting on and on about 'The All-Seeing Eyes of the Gods' like you have them, and wanted to recreate them knowing that those eyes are one of a kind. This went on for a while, and it eventually seemed like she got something to allow the person to have it's abilities. Unfortunately, me and sis were playing around on the table, and the potion that has that power fell over and broke. Because of that, sis is blind, and, well I..."
She opened her eyes to reveal a similar look as to the All-Seeing Eyes of the Gods.
The differences that Leo and Sonic noticed was that her eyes were pink, and instead of three white marks to help focus, there's four.
"Well, it's close!" he told her as he pointed towards his own eyes.
"W-W-WOAH, YOU DO HAVE THEM!" she exclaimed.
"Yep, so tell me, can you use them?"
Something huge was thrown past them.
Looking in that direction, someone looking like a boar-man is made out.
Soon another one appeared and grabbed the boar by the neck.
"Now, stay out of my way pig!"
The three ran in-between them.
"I'm afraid we can't let you do that." Rose told him.
"Bahahahaha! And how do you kids plan to do that?"
The boar grumbled.
"No, you children get out of here, this is my fight..."
"Sorry, no can do!"
Rose turned to face the other boar-man.
"Alright, then. Normal eyes, I command you to obey!"
Two glowing circles appeared in front of Rose's and the boar-man's eyes.
"Hey, I can't see! The hell did you do to me you brat?!" he yelled as he let loose of his grip of the other boar-man.
Leo helped the other boar-man up to his feet.
"Stand back you guys, Imma pummel him!"
Pulling back his fist, he threw a powerful punch at the being that attacked him before and sent him flying.
"Thank you both children, you have my gratitude." he told them as he took a bow.
"It was nothing! Anyway, can we get your name?" Rose asked.
"My name is Jackal. I'm what could be called as a Boar Warrior."
"Mind if you keep your eyes open for a sec, I wanna check something." Leo asked.
He opened his eyes as Leo did the same, and the glowing circles appeared over both their eyes.
"What a heart of valor..." he commented on as he closed his eyes again.
He was thinking for a second, then had an idea.
"Hey, if neither of you two are busy, I need help with something and I'm looking for recruits. For what? For the organization Libra."
"The legendary secret organization, am I really worthy? It'll be my honor to join you and help out anyway I can." Jackal told him.
Rose gave a nod.
"I'll help with finding your co-workers cousin!"
With Sonic by Leo's side again, the four began to walk back towards the office.
"So if your co-workers and boss are missing, I'm going to call you Mini-Chief!" Jackal declared.
"Alright, alright, will do."
As they were heading beck to the office, in another place, things are heating up.
"Trapped in my own mind, huh. And since the others are here too, that means that pubes and that monkey have been left to the office-"
Mind-Zapp has been interrupted by a Mind-Chain who stood on top of his head.
"Just because we're technically trapped in our own minds doesn't mean that I can't do this to you. I'm sure Leo'll be fine, after all, he can still call on Luciana, Brody and Hummer if he needs help. At least, I don't think their bodies got captured."
As they were speaking, their bodies began destroying a few buildings, with Klaus' and Steven's bodies not far behind.
"To think this dimension existed and the villain is none other than..."
Mind-Klaus looked behind him, and what he saw seemed to be Leo at first, but he's using his eyes with a dark grin, and his eyes were a vibrant red-orange instead of blue.
"While this wasn't what I had in mind in terms of bringing this world to ruin, especially with these outsiders, but they'll have to do."
In the next chapter: "But what about your job as a doctor?" "The dudes at the prison also allowed us to help, they said something around the lines of not trusting you to run something as secret as Libra...but between you and me I think you're pretty qualified." The Blood Breed led them to what seemed like a rampaging robot and a girl with headphones and a control in her hands. "Ever since I left Hellsalem's Lot, I figured out how to use my ESP properly, and thanks to Gizmo's help..." Black opened his eyes.
"I heard the news, and I came here to help!"
