Chapter: Museum trip and a Fury
It's been 10 years since Alex had arrived to the past with the Latex, which makes it now 2005. And while he is now 12 years old, he is still having to do things in the bunker and going out for the library to learn since he doesn't exist in the world due to having no birth certificate.
He has been doing jobs though to earn cash while also going back to the bunker, sometimes staying out of the bunker and doing a lot of jobs to earn cash. Though the Latex are protecting him, it was agreed upon them that there should be at least one or two Latex protecting him at nearly all times, the only times where they don't protect him until needed is when he is in the bunker or when using the bathroom, due to privacy for the bathroom and knowing that he is in the bunker.
When Alex went back to the Bunker though, he had started to go through the Latex abilities that he had and changed into the appropriate Latex, though some abilities were always there in the Latex, which was the transfur humans into other Latex or absorb humans, though he used that ability not that often because he will gain their memories while also killing a human. Another ability the Latex have is to make their mass very small while changing their bodies into goo to go through vents, which was a good ability to have when escaping someone in a building.
Alex did gain enough money to go to a museum though, and while he did contemplate what to do in the museum, he figured it was just to look at history and such. He did see some things in the woods that doesn't look like humans or animals since they are bigger than them, they just left him alone so he saw no need to do anything with them.
"Welp, time to go see who gets to protect me today." Alex said to nobody in particular, and went back to the bunker to see who gets to protect him for the day while at the museum.

It was the Dark Latex's turn to protect him for today, and it was a good idea for the Dark Latex to protect him, since in the dark, they can be very sneaky and the only thing visible for normal people is the white mask and eyes. Alex had named this specific Dark Latex, Umbra, so he doesn't get confused on which Latex he speaks to, because a lot of them looks the same for their species. What Umbra is capable of doing is human speech so if she gets caught by humans, she can speak and move away until she is away from the humans.
"So, what do you want to see when we get to the museum Umbra?" Alex asked while walking towards the museum. "Whatever piques my interest Alex, though there are quite a few people there." Umbra said. Alex then saw where Umbra was looking at and saw she was right, and it looks like that there was someone was throwing food at another person. 'What a waste of food' Alex thought. Yes, Alex thought that wasting food was bad unless there was a good reason to do so. He then saw one of the two boys move up, only to be pulled back down near the fountain. "You're already on probation, you know who'll get blamed if anything happens." The boy with pieces of bread on him said.
After a while, the class that the two boys seemed to be with went into the museum. "Alright, you know the drill Umbra, stay inside the vents unless there is something that can be a danger to us, and if there is no one in the room, make sure that the cams are blocked." Alex said while walking towards the museum and Umbra nodded, knowing that if their existence is found, they might lose control and start either Transfurring or absorbing the humans.
"Well, were here." Alex said and walked into the building while Umbra went into the vents. Alex then paid to enter the museum and started looking at the Greek things that had survived throughout the years.
"Will you shut up?" was what Alex heard and looked at the direction of where he heard it at and saw the same class he saw outside. 'Eh, probably a coincidence' he thought until he looked at more things that had survived.

Alex was looking at more mythological things and saw that the same person who said "Shut up" out loud is now back in the building and looking for someone. 'Not my problem' he thought, starting to walk away until he heard "You've been giving us problems, honey.". He then looked back and saw that a person was in front of a marble frieze. Alex then went behind something and started to listen to the conversation the two people were having and changed his ears into Latex ones so he can hear better.
"Did you really think you would be able to get away with it?" the female human said while the younger male human said "I'll – I'll try harder ma'am.". Then suddenly, there was thunder and Alex's ears started to hurt, changing his ears back into human ones. It took a few seconds until the pain went away, but when he saw the female human, he saw her turn into something that he only saw in the Greek mythology books. Alex then went to the nearest vent and said "Umbra, we have a problem. A Fury from the Greek myth books is here, look." And Umbra went out of said vent and saw the Alex was right. "We aren't ready for this." Umbra said. "I'm going to help him out, make sure to stay out of harm's way." He said until running towards the Fury, changing his arms and legs into Latex arms and legs and punched the Fury. "Alex, stop, you are going to get up caught, wait… might as well help him." Umbra said until getting up towards the ceiling and moving above the Fury to either transfur or absorb.
"Who dares to stop me from killing Perseus Jackson." The Fury said until looking at Alex, who has his arms changed into Latex arms and his legs into Latex legs. Alex then looked above the monster and saw that Lexi was above her. "I do." Alex said before both Umbra and Alex attacked the monster, protecting the teen that was in the room since he doesn't have any weapons on him, probably still spooked about what happened and what Alex has for the arms and legs.
"What ho, Percy!" that was said from someone before they thrown a pen at the kid, who was named Percy. The Fury then tried to lunged at the kid named Percy who now had a bronze sword in his hand, but Alex stopped the Fury from getting to him by jumping on top of it and punched down, hard. It makes the monster go to the ground and Umbra went to the monster to see if they can transfer the monster, which worked and changed the monster into a Dark Latex with wings. What both Alex and Umbra didn't know is that they stopped a Greek monster from reappearing ever again, which makes the number of Furies to two currently existing while one is transfurred.
Alex then looked to where he heard footsteps and tried to get out of the museum as fast as possible, which is through the vents if he doesn't want to get caught, which worked and just in time to see someone be given back their pen by Percy… wasn't there a bronze sword a few seconds ago?
"So, Umbra, what are we going to tell the others? Cause they will need proof from what happened today. And what are we going to do with her now?" Alex asked. Umbra said "Don't worry, I got it on camera, we just need to look through the footage now to see if it was affected or not since no one outside heard anything. While with our new Latex, probably some punishment that will involve her getting more things to do than the others back at the bunker." While holding a camera.
"I don't want to ask how you got a camera in here nor do I want to know where you got it. Were almost near the exit anyway." Alex said while nearing a vent. Alex, Umbra, and the new Latex were now out of the museum and heading back to the bunker while also hiding from the humans, which meant they need to go to the sewers for a while until they find an entrance to the bunker.
Time skip…
Alex, Umbra, and the new Latex were at the bunker entrance that was hidden due to some cloaking technology that the Latex found in the bunker. Umbra then went ahead to a secure room in a bunker while the new Latex was being sniffed by the other Latex since this always happens when a new Latex appears. Alex went into a security room and started to look up Greek mythology to have a better understanding on them since all he was getting them from was only in the books and surviving Greek items.
After a while of searching, he found out that a singular Fury is called an Erinyes, so he knows what to call the furies when they are alone. Another one he found out about was the Cerberus, which is a three headed dog of the Underworld. He knows that they will probably get along with their own Cerberus Latex, due to them having three bodies but share the same mind and memories.
He then looked up the interne to see if they were found out yet, and they aren't yet. 'We aren't found out yet, good.' He thought. After searching up more, he got up and went into one of the sleeping rooms while rubbing his eyes for a quick fifteen-minute sleep and start doing other jobs while checking up on the teen named Percy.
Time skip…
After his fifteen-minute sleep, he then got back into the security room and went to hacking and see where Percy Jackson is at. He found out earlier due to the Erinyes saying the name Jackson and when he went to the records, he saw that there is someone named Percy Jackson and his mother Sally Jackson.
When he went to where they spent their money on last, it was somewhere in Montauk, which takes a while to get there by car and longer by foot, but due to how big the bunker is, the experimental teleporters can get him there very fast, which has a 100% success rate for Latex, but unknown for Humans, and he doesn't want to take the risk of going somewhere else, so he will be going as a Latex.
Time Skip…
It was a while before Umbra and another Latex showed up, which he named Hikari, who was a Light Latex. "Alright, if we find Percy and Sally Jackson, protect them. The location that they will be at is in Montauk, and were going by teleporter." Alex said before turning into a half Dark and half Light Latex with the mask on his face half black and half white.
"I have a bad feeling that something is going to happen at when night time happens." Alex said before going through the teleporter with Umbra and Hikari.
To be continued…
(A/N: I have no idea what to name some of the other Latex at the bunker, so I'm going to need some help on that part, please review if you want, cause I'm going to be more thorough with the documents and see if there are any mistakes to be corrected.)
