Solidus: We're back. Dark Maxim, take this!
(Solidus throws Dark Maxim a universal antidote, which he promptly uses.)
Dark Maxim: I feel better already. NOW TO TEAR THOSE DAMN DEMONS APART FOR HURTING DARK RAPTOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Leaves the communications room.)
Forte Omega: . How much you want to bet he gets poisoned again?
Solidus: We brought plenty of antidotes.
Raiden: It was creepy though. the hallways in the lower parts of the castle have been paved with corpses.
Dark Raptor: . That's. just.SICK!!!!!!
Raiden: no. what was sick was that we had to walk on them. and the corpses were at varying stages of decomposing. EVEN THE WALLS AND CEILING HAD THEM!!!!!!!
(Dark Maxim returns with a survivor.)
Dark Maxim: Think you can help him?
Forte Omega: . HEY! IT'S DYNAMO!!!! I THOUGHT HE SECURED THE POWER GENERATORS!!!!!
Dynamo: The generators have been replaced with pillars that generate energy. and face spirits guards them. Hey! MY CODEC!!!! I CAN CALL THE OTHERS!!!!!!!
(Dynamo calls the others, but only gets a response from Liquid.)
Liquid: Dynamo? What is it?
Dynamo: Where are you?
Liquid: Well, I'm in some kind of clock tower.
SSG: I didn't build a clock tower.
Liquid: We know. also, I overheard Damien talking to a cloaked figure with a scythe. Something about 'Using this castle to channel the Prince of Darkness' spirit', and 'This is only a first step to consuming the world in darkness.'
Forte Omega: . We'd better try to figure out what he meant.

Chapter 8 - Questions
"Looks like you're awake." Enigma said as she entered the room.
Allesa shook her head to get blood flowing to it. She wasn't sure how she felt. She also faintly remembered what happened before. Visions of a city burning, a dome like structure, and a man with an eye patch pointing a gun at her flashed through her head. She thought for a while.
".What's your name?" Enigma asked.
".Allesa.Allesa Gainsborough."
"Gainsborough? Hmm."
Enigma looked like she knew the name.
Tauros hanger.
"UGH!!!! HE'S HEAVIER THAN LAST TIME!!!!!!!"
Brad was quite surprised. They were still in hybrid form, but Alex still seemed heavier then the last time they carried him. He wanted to know why. They took Alex to a bed, and set him down on it. Then they went to Bill.
"Bill, something seems different about Alex's changes."
"I noticed too. I already got in touch with one of his associates in the hybrid project. She'll be here shortly."
Then they had more questions.
"He had ASSOCIATES involved with that mess????" Leena asked.
"He had intrigued the scientific community with his discoveries involving genetics and biology. It wouldn't surprise me if he had at least ten associates."
". So Orion DID go through with his experiments to make hybrids with a non mammal animal as the enhancing DNA." A feminine voice said from behind them.
They turned to see a thin woman with glasses and blonde hair standing in the doorway. She was wearing a lab coat, with some stains from chemical spills. She walked toward Bill, and studied his features.
". Why do I have the feeling you're Bill?"
"Because I am."
Then she chuckled.
"Looks like Joseph won that little bet about when Orion would snap and turn his own employees into hybrids. It's a good thing I finished a semi-universal antidote earlier today."
"A semi-universal serum?" Jack asked.
"It only works on hybrids mixed with animals of a certain class. I have several variations of it. One for bird hybrids, one for reptilian hybrids, and so on."
"Hey wait a minute. what's you name anyway???" Bit asked.
"Felicia. Now why did you call me Billy?"
".Just Bill. and Orion ended up with a rebellion. and now he's fallen victim to his serum."
". And I just won the bet for when he'd be overthrown."
".Um. yes. well. the problem is that we don't have a clue about WHAT animal he's becoming like."
Felicia followed Bill and the others to Orion's room. On the way, Jack noticed that she looked like she was ready for anything. However, that look disappeared when she saw Orion.
"OH MY. THIS IS INCREDIBLE!!!"
Felicia started examining Alex.
"This is impossible.these wings. the horns. how could he break the barrier of mixing genes with his serum?"
".He didn't.none of his notes we recovered mentioned him finding the solution to the problem."
Felicia felt Alex's skin. It was warm and scaly. This wasn't a costume. She felt the tail. There too, it was warm and scaly. She examined the wings. The structure was unique, and flawless.
".What the hell was the DNA from?"

SSG: I think I know what Damien meant.
Forte Omega: What?
SSG: Count Dracula is known as the 'Prince of Darkness'. I don't know whether to be flattered or disgusted that they're using my castle for this.
Radio: ANYONE OUT THERE?????
Beelzemon: What is it?
Radio: .
Beelzemon: Oh. WHAT IS IT???????
Cid V/O: I'm in the east wing of the castle, and I found a section called 'Black Museum.'
Forte Omega: The Black museum of London exhibits involve criminals, and other devices used for diabolical purposes.
Cid V/O: Oh.
Beelzemon: Hey! You DID fix it Solidus.
Solidus: You doubted me?
Beelzemon: .
Cid V/O: You won't believe this, but there's an ornate frog mask in the inventory.
Forte Omega: .Does it say it's from the movie 'The Abominable Dr. Phibes'?
Cid V/O: .Yeah, but how.
Forte Omega: FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, DON'T PUT IT ON!!!!!!!!!! IT'S DESIGNED SO WHEN THE CATCH IS CLOSED, IT'LL KEEP GETTING TIGHTER UNTIL IT CRUSHES THE VICTIM'S HEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(Cid, on the other side of the castle, then puts the mask back instead of wearing it.)
Cid V/O: GAH!!!! THAT'S DISGUSTING!!!!!!!!!!!
Forte Omega: Not as bad as some methods of killing in the same movie.
Cid V/O: . Let me guess. eaten by locusts while asleep?
Forte Omega: How did.
Cid V/O: There's a wax replica near it.
Dark Raptor: . Someone seriously needs to redecorate.
(Solidus throws Dark Maxim a universal antidote, which he promptly uses.)
Dark Maxim: I feel better already. NOW TO TEAR THOSE DAMN DEMONS APART FOR HURTING DARK RAPTOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Leaves the communications room.)
