Chapter Fourteen

~.~To know the unknown~.~

The memory was very faint. Like someone put a cloth before their eyes. Only hearing and feeling everything.

Feeling the pain that Gibson felt that day.

Antauri and Sprx looked around. Seeing they were back in the room where the Power Primate left.

They were still trying to figure out what that was.

"I believe that was a memory Sprx," said the silver simian and turned to his red brother.

The red monkey gently picked up the blue simian. A broken look could be seen on the medical experts face. Exhausted from everything that happened to him made him more and more un-restful. Sprx held him closer now from any danger that could threaten him. Protective brother mode at its best.

He nodded at Antauri, answering the sentence. Thinking the same thing. A memory that could be described as a nightmare. "Let's go,"

Antauri focused on a way out and then pulled them out of the mind place. They almost get blinded by the green light as they got out.

Sprx and Antauri were now back in the room with Gibson. The blue monkey laid limp at their feet.

"Wow," said Sprx. "So that was a memory?" taking back the subject. Wanting to understand more about what they heard and felt.

Antauri nodded. "I do believe so," he looked at Gibson's limp form on the ground and laid his hand on the scientist head. "I think Gibson remembered who did this to him."

"I heard a guy named Hershel," Sprx rubbed his chin. Remembering what they just heard. "It sounded like this Hershel guy wiped Gibson's memories with that Knowledge Thingy."

"That is not the only thing where we should worry about," Antauri removed his hand from Gibson's head. "A piece of Gibson's soul was pulled with it," he closed his eyes and sighed. "I sensed the Power Primate in trouble back at the Super Robot two days ago, remember?"

Sprx nodded as he remembered what their Second in Command said to them two days ago. That he felt Gibson being in trouble. They saw Chiro having the same problem in the Command Center when Antauri was in his room meditating.

"That was when Gibson was pulled under the Knowledge Remover," noted Antauri.

"So it has been two full days that Gibson was left in this state?" Sprx looked at his fallen brother. Concerned about his friends mental health spiked up in his stomach immediately. He bit his lip, not wanting to wake the sleeping simian now.

No memories.

Nothing.

Gibson wouldn't even recognize them. If he did wake up, they would be in trouble. Who knows what their medic could do to them? But then again, they saw the states of the collages of Hershel. Would Gibson be just like them? A drooling idiot?

Sprx shook his head, that happened one time. When Mandarin attacked them with Valina's medallion. Their worst fears came true that night. Not something they wanted to remember. Nobody ever mentioned that day ever again after it happened.

Gibson was transformed in to a dumb scientist who didn't even remember where you can find moon rocks. He drilled into the metal floor for those things. And not to mention he almost searched Sprx body to look for ponies and kangaroos.

Apparently Antauri was thinking the same thing. He shook his head, and looked at the red pilot. The Silver Monkey used his Ghost Claws to cut the chain around Gibson's ankle. Freeing him from the imprisonment.

A loud groan was heard, coming from Gibson.

They both looked down to see the blue member of the HyperForce waking up.

Sprx looked at Antauri. Antauri looked back. Wondering what madness would come.

Gibson opened his eyes.

And screamed. The voice has hoarsely, making the two monkeys standing before him wince.

Two colored monkeys were in front of him. Who were they? What were they doing?

The silver one was talking to him, trying to calm him down. While the red one was just watching, what were those black things in front of his eyes. Or were these his eyes?

What in the-

He slapped the silver one in the face with a right hook when he got to close, making the shocked monkey fall on the ground. He tried to make a break for it but the red one stood in his way. Snarling he threatened the pink monkey. Trying to get him back away.

Pink or red?

Did it matter?

What were they talking about? They were talking to each other. But he couldn't understand the red and silver monkeys. It was like someone put an ear protector on him. Not being able to hear anything.

His legs burning in pain as he was standing, he snarled at the pain.

Pain.

Hershel.

More pain.

He shakes his head. What was that? That man… who was that? He breathed harshly in, his throat was sore from the lack of water.

And why was he so tired? He gaped and shook himself up. Trying to stay awake with the two unknown monkeys too close by him. Pain filled his legs making him flinch.

The red monkey talked again but the words were still fuzzy for Gibson, What was this monkey talking about?

Curious in his nature he stared at the chattering monkey. Trying to seek an clearer hearing and at the same time he was trying to get answers.

Behind him the Silver one stood up.

"I do not think he can hear us Sprx," said Silver.

Gibson swirled around trying to keep both of the monkeys insight. But got hit with a dizzy spell making him lose his vision for a short moment.

Knowledge Remover. Memories of that hour was filling his mind.

"Gibson's spirit is still exhausted from the coma state, and his psychical state itself isn't helping." Silver was still talking to the red monkey.

The blue monkey before them was standing shakily. Barley standing on his broken legs, panting harshly.

"So... What do we do?" said Red. "His legs can't hold on much more of the standing, it will only make it worse," the red one was panicking, but why?

"We try to calm him down, make him comfortable with us. And do not make any sudden moves," Silver sat on the ground and after a few moments so did Red.

A collector. Memories from that day was in Gibson's head.

Wait.

He shook his head out of the clouds.

Why were Red and Silver sitting on the ground? Gibson wondered. Still curious about the two monkeys. He sat down too, but still on the other side of the room, away from the HyperForce members. He sighed as the strains of his legs was slowly disappearing. He rubbed his right leg unconsciously, trying to smooth the pain.

"Gibson was always curious about new things," smiled Antauri as he saw the scientist sitting down with them. Finally putting his legs off the strains.

"Still the brainiac," smirked Sprx. "Always wanting to figure things out,"

The blue monkey was thinking what to do now. Were they like Hershel? Did they also caused pain? He wanted to find out. He needed to know.

"Let him first know us, make him trust us. Just let him come at you," Antauri looked at the scientist that was now walking on all fours towards Sprx. More movement with his arms, trying to use his legs as low as possible, slowly and shakily, but Gibson still went to Red. Wondering why they talked like that, did they knew him? Did he knew them? They looked like him. Silver robotic arms, colored fur. But the silver one was made out metal. Why was that then?

Sprx smiled slightly as he saw his brother coming at him. Gibson was watching him carefully, searching with his eyes to make sure Red meant no harm.

"Remember Sprx, he does not know us,"

"Yeah, yeah. I'm sure it will be fine,"

Gibson pinched the red pilot. He got no reaction but a small smile. Seeing he was no treat he now sat down with Sprx. Legs burning from standing too long. His legs were still broken, it was a wonder that he could move at all. But with the adrenaline pulsing though his small body, he was left standing shaking on the floor. Still in a horrible pain, but not caring enough. He wasn't going to leave two unknown monkeys in his reach in a moment of weakness. They could be the enemies.

"Gibson is still tired. It will take no time for him to fall asleep." Said Antauri. As on cue the scientist gaped again, stretching himself as he tried to stay awake.

They wanted to take care of him. Red and Silver were worried about him. He could smell it in the air. He didn't wanted to talk yet. He wanted to rest, to lay down for a while.

Red looked like he was thinking for a quick moment before opening his arms carefully, making Gibson to take a look at him again. With his blue tail sweeping around, he stared at the opened arms. Sprx gestured it was alright. And Gibson slowly fell into the waiting arms. Feeling he was save with the Red one. But he was not quite sure how, it was like a force told him it was fine. He rested his head on Red's torso and closed his eyes. Embracing the blackness. Exhausted.

Sprx made him more comfortable and shifted the slumbering monkey carefully. Now having a better grip on the sleeping blue monkey. Trusting the red monkey with his life.

Sprx and Antauri smiled at each other.

Antauri stood up and walked towards Sprx. Wanting to see the damage what the torturer had done to him. They already noticed the legs that were bent the wrong way. But now with a closer look, they saw the claw marks in his neck. His chest was blue and a little swelled up. Two broken ribs.

The Second in Command looked at the red pilot. Shaking his head slightly, and pointed out the injuries that he could see.

They stood up, Antauri looked out of the door. Seeking which way to go now.

"We need to find that Crystal." Sprx nodded and picked up the injured scientist. After making sure he was holding the slumbering monkey right he followed the Second in Command in the hallways towards the others.

Wanting to get back to the Super Robot as soon as possible.

They both hoped to find that crystal thingy before it would be too late to restore Gibson's intelligence.
