A/N: I do not own Elsword game, nor its characters. This pervy story is all i can claim is D=. enjoy ;)
Raven felt dizzy. His back was sore from the hard bench on which he was lying, and he felt sweaty, the place too hot for his liking. He didn't even know how much time he had spent on it, but he could assume it was a lot. Then his mind focused on a detail, something was missing. Raven opened his eyes and sat up when he realized what had happened, grabbing his shoulder.
- I had to remove it, it had gone out of control and was overpowering you.
From a shaded angle of the room Add came out holding his arm in his hands.
- I'll admit it took me more than I'd appreciated to get it back to its normal state, but now it should be good. I even improved its mobility by a rough 4%, you should like it.
Raven was still shocked by the vision of his arm not connected to his body, so he didn't say a single word, till Add started maneuvering him to connect the arm back to his shoulder. He didn't even flinch before the cables wired with his nerves, at which he jumped, not remembering how much pain this caused.
When the pain subsided he found he was grasping Add's arm with his nasod hand. He released him immediately and jumped of the table (he now knew it hadn't been a bench he was lying on) to look at his surroundings. He was in Add's laboratory, that much was sure. For a nasod lab though, it was way darker than the ones in which he had been "rebuilt" by the servants of King Nasod. Still the many screens and numerous working bots where awfully familiar, and he immediately felt self-conscious about his situation: in a nasod freak's lab, not 100% sure about his position, weak and also partially naked he realized, as soon as he caught sight of his vest on a chair, as was his host, his shirt nowhere to be seen. He grabbed his top piece and put it on immediately.
- My, my, why are you in such a rush, Raven? Are you not familiar with a nasod lab? And here I thought you were accustomed to places like this. – Add told him, smirking devilishly. Raven was already searching for the exit.
- Geez, you're behaving like a caged rabbit, calm down, I won't do you harm, promise! Besides, I had all the time I wanted to examine your nasod arm, you have no reason to be afraid of me.
- What? How long was I KO?
- About 10 hours, don't worry though, I took good care of you. Your accident happened partially because of me, so I felt like I had to do something to repair.
Raven tried to remember what had happened, but all he managed to get was a heavier headache. - My head is still spinning, what happened?
Add's face morphed in what could have been mistaken for concern, were it not for the guy being absolutely unable to feel any kind of positive emotion towards others. – Oh really? Well, let me remind you about the "accident".
You had agreed to come with me to the altera core where I wanted to search for some projects or blueprints that may had passed unnoticed the last time I checked, but when we reached the place it was infested with plants that had somehow took control of the nasods, reactivating them in a random fury attack mode. It had gone all well while we tried to sneak in the laboratory under the king's room, but when we exited we found an entire mob of those things in front of us. As we were likely to be defeated, due to sheer numbers, I blasted the area with an EMP, which burned all the circuits of the nasod surrounding us. Unfortunately, one of them must have reached some joint or other weak point of your arm, damaging its shielding, so your arm's control chips burned and you started raging.
- How did we come here? – Raven couldn't wait to ask.
- I knocked you out, then used some nasod pieces to create a stretcher and took you here.
- I assume I should thank you then, for uhm, everything. - He couldn't believe he actually owned his safety to Add. The way the guy looked at him at times was, well, unnerving. It was almost as he was scanning him.
- It was a pleasure, Raven. Now if your demeanor is telling me something, you need to go. Here let me guide you to the exit. – With that he grabbed him by his human arm and guided him to the exit
Raven was grateful to be able to leave Add's place. He still didn't like the guy even though something was telling him he wasn't so unpleasant as he once thought. Growing up the guy had built a body that made him look less as a psychopath, exception made for his face. Even if he had the body of a man (tall and firm, just a little thinner than him) the spiky haircut and the scar under his eye reminded everyone of the freak he had been when he first appeared in Velder. What still made everyone uneasy in his presence though, were Add's eyes: they were frightening, to say the least.
During his stay in Velder he had learned that the guy wasn't a total freak, still he didn't trust him, so he felt relief when he reached the exit of his lab and the warm afternoon air hit him.
- Geez, it's even hotter than in my lab, I need a shower. – Add complained.
- One more reason for me to leave, see you soon Add. - Raven waved his goodbye and started walking down the road.
Add's smirk grew wider, as he looked at the man leaving. 'Sooner than you think pal' was his thought as he went back inside.
