Chapter 10

Megamind closed his eyes wearily as the police car pulled away from the banquet hall. He had killed an innocent. He'd never done that before. It was the one thing he had always went out of his way to avoid. Admittedly he had tried to kill Metroman many times, but the supervillian was supposed to do that. He remembered the disgust and hate on the crowd's faces as Metroman had led him out. The hate didn't bother him so much. He was the supervillian, people were supposed to hate him, but he had not meant to kill anyone.

An abrupt left turn jolted Megamind from his thoughts. After a quick glance out the window Megamind knew something was wrong. He knew all the ways back to the prison and this wasn't one of them. "You do know the prison is the other die-rek-tion?"

Neither officer answered. They hadn't said a word since they shoved him into the back of the cruiser.

"Simple minded drones," Megamind muttered. He shifted, trying to get comfortable.. His hands were getting numb. Just his luck the cuffs had hinges instead of chains conecting them. He knew ways to unlink the chained cuffs. Ringing from the front seat was a welcome distraction.

Lewis pulled out a cell phone and flipped it open. "Hello?"

Unknown to most Megamind had more acute senses then most Humans, not on par with Metro douche's, but very good. He could hear both sides of the conversation.

"It's Voss, Lewis. Is the package on route?" he asked.

Lewis smirked. "Pick up was made sucessfully."

"We're in postion to pick up the package. What's your ETA?" Voss asked.

Lewis glanced over his shoulder at Megamind and smiled. "ETA about five minutes." He chuckled.

Megamind didn't like that smile. It was vaguely creepy. It reminded him of one of the prisoners that had been in the prison when he was ten. Warden Wilcott had made sure the man had been moved to another cell block, but that creepy smile had haunted Megamind for a long time.

Voss laughed."Right, don't damage the package, see you in five

Lewis laughed again. "Looking forward to it." He hung up the phone and put it back in his pocket.

Megamind shifted again and tugged at the handcuffs These thugs were up to something and it was obvious he was the 'package' they were talking about. I mean could they be more obvious? It was really insulting to be treated like he was ignorant.

Lewis looked at him again. "Comfy back there?" He smirked nastily.

"Well, the service is terrible, but I didn't expect much from a couple thugs with IQs smaller then their shoe size." Megamind sneered. That hit home, he thought truimphantly, seeing the look on Lewis' face.

Lewis glared and turned back to the front. "We'll see who gets the last laugh."

Megamind rolled his eyes in derision. Neandrathal, he thought.

The next five minutes seemed to fly by and the cruiser turned into a parking lot surrounding a closed and boarded up building. There was only two other vehicle in the lot, a black van and a black sedan.

Megamind frowned as the car pulled in about twenty feet from the black van and stopped.

Lewis sighed. "Alright, Danials, let's finish off the delivery."

"Sounds good," Danials said. He turned off the car and the two men got out.

Lewis opened the door. "End of the ride, out!" he snapped.

Megamind managed to get out and on his feet, not an easy task with your hands cuffed behind your back.

Lewis grabbed his arm and pulled him to the front of the cruiser.

The passenger door of the van opened and a blonde man got out. He walked over. "Hiya, Lewis, Danials. Good to see you." His gaze moved to Megamind and he looked him over. "Huh, he's not as impressive in person."

" Hey Voss, Nah, not really." Danials handed the man the D-Gun.

Megamind gave his gun a yearning look. He could be free in an instant if he could get his hands on it. The cuffs prevented that action unfortunately.

Suddenly Danials grabbed his other arm and he was slammed chest down on the cruiser's hood. He grunted as the wind was knocked out of him.

"Lay still, if you try to struggle we'll hurt you," Lewis warned.

Voss laid a black, square case on the hood of the cruiser and opened it. "Just one last thing to do."

Magamind managed to turn his head slightly. The case held a syringe and a small bottle of a cloudy fluid. Something cold and damp was swiped over a patch of skin on the left side of his neck.

Voss picked up the bottle and drew some of the liquid into the syringe. "Now you might feel a little pinch."

Megamind tensed, not liking the thought of being injected with an unfamiliar drug. He felt hands press down on his shoulders to keep him still.

Voss squirted a bit out to make sure there was no air in the syringe. "Relax, just a little something to make you a little more cooperative. It might make you a bit drowsy."

"For crying out loud, give him the shot. This isn't a doctor's office," Lewis complained.

"You do realize the risks of giving me any sort of drugs?" Megamind pointed out. "It might be quite safe for you, but for me it might not be."

Voss was about to insert the needle, but stopped at that. He looked at Lewis and Danials nervously.

"Do it, it's only half of the normal dose. The boss knows what he's doing," Lewis said.

Megamind groaned inwardly. It had almost worked. He winced at the stinging prick of the needle.

"Done," Voss said. He wiped off the punture with an alcohol pad. He put the syringe and bottle back into the case. Closing it, he slipped the case into his pocket. "Let's go." He headed towards the van.

Lewis and Danial's hauled Megamind upright and led him towards the van after Voss.

Halfway there Megamind felt dizzy and suddenly his knees buckled. It was lucky the two men had hold of his arms or he would have fallen on his face.

Voss reached the van and opened the side door. "Looks like the drug is working faster than usual."

"Yeah, it'll make it easier," Danials said.

Two men were waiting and they helped haul Megamind into the van. They dumped him carelessly on the floor and closed the side door.

Voss got in the passenger door and slammed the door. "See you back at the house."

The driver started the van and drove off, heading south.

Lewis went over to the police cruiser and opened the trunk. He pressed a button on the device inside then closed the trunk. The two men got into the sedan and drove off, following the van. Five minutes later the cruiser exploded.

Welcome to my new reviewers, Thank you for your comments everyone! I added a bit of Megamind's thoughts about the death of Jenson. Thanks for the thought, Windy Silvermist! R/R please!
