Author note: The Shroomitz is inspired off of a fan art I saw on Pinterest.
"Olga!"
"Hm?" Olga sat up. She was reading a romance story between a Vampire and a Human. She thought the book was bad, but kept reading to see if it got any better.
Princess Peach came running into the room. She had her hair tied back into a ponytail and was wearing a pink camo outfit.
"Olga, you think it's safe to go out today?"
"It depends if your mystery spreader is out today." She responded. She put the book down and slid off her bed. "Why?"
"Because, I think we got our cure!"
"Really?" Olga asked, following behind Peach. "Did you try it out?"
"Yes, yesterday." She placed her hand on a metal plate, and it slid open when it scanned her hand and recognized it. "He returned back to normal!...Mostly."
Before she got to ask what Peach meant by "mostly", she spotted the Toad they used the serum on yesterday. He acted like normal and looked mostly normal, except for the fact that the scar was still on his face. H smiled and waved awkwardly at the two when they entered.
"It worked!" Olga hugged the Toad and lifted him into the air. "It worked..." She faced Peach. "It worked?"
Peach nodded. "We got our cure! If we go out now we might-"
"We are not going out."
Marino walked into view. His short brown hair had some grey tied into it and he wore a suit in its best condition possible and a red tie. He was the Commander of the group.
"As long as they are out, we are better staying inside." He told in a stren voice.
"But Marino! We have to stop this! If we don't act now, it'll keep getting worse!" Olga tried.
"You heard me, Medic." He placed his hand on the cured Toad's head. "I said no. We cannot lose one of us!"
"But if we stay hidden all the time, they'll find us eventually! By then it might already be too late!"
Marino rubbed the bridge of his nose. "Olga, you heard me-"
"I am tired of you always brushing off my ideas!" She picked up her Medic bag and shoved as much of the cure she could carry. "Fine. I'll just go myself!" She slammed the door shut on her way out.
"Tell me what to do." She huffed. "Yeah, right."
She continued walking until she heard something. She hid behind some rubble and poked her head up enough so she could see. A Toad came flying out a building. He was uninfected...for now. A person came out of the building, and held up a syringe and grabbed the citizen by the wrist. The person froze and looked at where Olga was hiding.
"Show yourself, Spy." He said. His dirty blonde hair was styled to cover one eye, leaving the rest of is hair to fall down to his center back. He had a surprisingly pale skin tone and his amethyst eyes seemed to pierce through Olga's head. There was no going back, he knew she was there.
She came out with her arms up.
"Olga...dear sister." He dropped the Toad and he ran off. "How nice to see you again."
"Olwdd?" She noticed his right arm was bandaged up. "Your arm! Are you okay?"
"I'm better now, thanks to this." He held up his bandaged arm when he said that. "You finished that cure, no?"
"Yeah!" She nodded. "What's that you have there?" She pointed at the syringe.
"You want to see?"
"Yeah!"
He walked over to the Toad again. He grabbed him by the wrist and inserted the syringe into the Toad's arm. He tightened his grip when the Toad tried to leave. He let go of him when the fluid had left and went into his arm.
"Although..." Shroomitz started growing out of the Toad's face. Olwdd grabbed the end of the bandage on his right arm. "Now that you have seen what it's done..."
Olga took a couple of steps back, watching as the Toad mutated into some sort of monster.
He unwrapped the bandage. "I'll have to eat you!" He used some of the purple fluid into his arm as well, causing it to glow an eerie amethyst color.
His arm, if it's even an arm anymore, came apart at the end going halfway up his arm in three tentacle-like appendages. In the center where his palm should be at, was possibly thousands of rows of small, sharped teeth. Olga had a shiver go down her spine.
"Olwdd? Are y-you okay?"
"Like I said. I am doing MUCH better now thanks to this." He held up his arm again.
"Olwdd, what IS that...THING?"
"Come on, Olga! You came here to cure! You'll have to go through me first!" He tackled her.
"O-Olwdd..." She fought his distorted arm to keep it away from her face. "Calm...yourself!"
Olwdd just laughed. "What are you going to do about it? Heal me?!" He grabbed her Medical pouch and crushed it, the lemon-colored fluid oozing down his tentacle arm.
Olga reached up and grabbed his bangs. If she couldn't fight him, she will bring him down to her level. His bangs tore off.
"Waah!" She hit her hand on some broken glass, causing small cuts to appear on the back of her hand.
She looked up at her brother. His bangs were put that way to block some small Shroomitz coming out of his face. Olga gasped and dropped his bangs. Olwdd covered his eye.
"Get away from me!" His voice seemed...off. It sounded like him, but also like somebody else was talking at the same time, saying the same thing. He got off of her. "I will be back, Olga." He ran off.
Olga sighed and picked up her bag. "I should've listened, Captain Marino. I'm sorry."
Author note (again): Olga is Olivia, and Olwdd is Olly if you couldn't figure it out.
