Yeah this one is really short, I know... and I know I messed up when I said Erik didn't know about America (oops!), but I imagine him as being to confused (I know, lame excuse, but whatever) Sorry for the mess-up!
Disclaimer: Don't own PotO. I only own Anna and Rodney, the freaky scientist
The men (for Erik found that there were more than one) grabbed Erik and pinned him down on the ground. At least two hands were clamped over his mouth to silence him.
"Careful now, men," a familiar voice whispered, "he can be a wild one when he wants to."
The crowd of men stood Erik on his feet, and he saw in the moonlight that the man who had spoken was the very first person he had laid eyes on in 2005. That man was the old scientist from the lab!
"Ha! Thought you could get away that easy, did you? I don't think so! You may be fast on your feet, but we make up for our disadvantage with technology," the old man smirked.
Erik struggled and tried desperately to get away, but the people around him held him firmly, and he couldn't escape. One person even punched him in the stomach once to stop his wriggling. Erik didn't by any means stop squirming, but he wasn't as frantic or effective. A wet cloth was put over his nose and mouth, and Erik smelled the chloroform.
Within seconds, his vision grew dark, and he slowly went unconscious...
Anna awoke suddenly in the middle of the night. Something in the back of her mind was nagging at her, refusing to let her sleep any more. She turned over in her bed and laid there all night, staring at the wall and wondering what could be wrong.
Erik's eyes shot open. He was back in the lab, which had evidently been repaired since he had last been there. He was strapped onto a metal stretcher, and the old scientist hovered over him again, grinning in a sinister way.
"Oy, 'is 'eart rate is up, Rodney!" one of the other scientists shouted to the old scientist.
"Yeah, he's awake," Rodney replied, looking Erik in the eyes, "so let's get started! Let's see how he reacts when... Wait a second," Rodney noticed something about Erik's face, "What is this?"
Rodney reached forward and laid a rough finger on Erik's right cheek, "Why, it's a mask! A rubber mask! Would you look at that, gentlemen? It appears our little test subject has been hiding something..."
To Erik's horror, Rodney moved his fingers along his mask until he found the edge of it. He gave Erik a superior and evil look, then whipped the mask off of his face.
Scientists all around the room gasped and cried aloud in horror. They panicked and ran all around the room, looking to Erik like a bunch of insane lunatics. The man who controlled Erik's electric metal stretcher tripped over a switch in his haste to run away, and that deactivated the mechanical bonds holding Erik to the stretcher.
Erik sat up, grateful now that he could move, "Damn you! All of you!" he cursed, standing up and knocking over glass vials, test tubes, and other fragile chemistry equipment. Sparks erupted into flame as chemicals reacted with the electrical outlets and machinery. Still Erik cursed and yelled like a madman, and broke everything he came into contact with.
"Someone call the police!" Rodney shouted as Erik came upon him, landing punishing blows with is fists. Men all over the room got out cell phones and dialed 911.
Minutes later, after Rodney had been saved from Erik, the police arrived and were bursting through the doors. The policemen grabbed Erik and pinned him to the ground. Handcuffs were placed over his wrists, and he was led away, still cursing and shouting...
Anna was glad to see the sun rise. She got out of bed, and went outside immediately to try and find Erik before her aunt came. She called his name, but received no reply. Puzzled, Anna searched the hill, but found no trace of Erik.
Anna heard her doorbell ring from the hill, and ran down to greet her aunt, unaware of how bad of a turn her life was about to take.
Erik was sentenced to 4 years in prison by a judge, which was rather unfair, as he thought. The lawyer had been to afraid of Erik to get his story right, and that led to Erik being found guilty...
Yeah it's kind of weird, I know, but REVIEW anyway!
