Chapter five:
X-ray pulls out his cell as he gets a call and sees that it's the Corpirate. He answers and brings the phone to his ear. "Did you do it?"
"Aye. The company is ours." The Corpirate confirms.
"Very good. Take a look at Hildas lab and see if you can find anything useful." He says swivelling his chair to face away from his desk.
"Aye I will." The Corpirate responds then the two hang up.
X-ray smiles. "It's going just as planned." His smile turns into a slightly bigger smirk.
...
Vav sits on the floor in his cell with a huff as he crosses his arms over his chest. "They thought of everything didn't they?"
"It'll be one of the greatest enemies we've ever had to face." Hilda reminds him. "So obviously this won't be easy."
"Vav?"
Vav blinks in surprise then smiles wide. "Well. Almost everything." He gets to his feet and spins around as when he was sitting with his back was to the door. "Mogar! I'm so glad you came! How'd you find us?" He questions running over to the door placing two hands on it.
"Vav left scent." Mogar explains. "Vav clear. Mogar break wood."
Vav backs up having an idea of what Mogar is going to do. "Okay." He confirms.
A moment later Mogars sword slams through a part of the door. He pulls it back before taking another swing at the door breaking it even more. He takes a final swing and the door breaks just big enough for Vav to get through.
"That's good." Vav says and moves towards the door but pauses and turns to the others.
"Go on without us." Ash tells him. "You have to stop him!"
Vav nods. "We'll come back for you. Promise." He then gets out through the hole and he turns to look to Mogar who still has his sword in hand. "Okay. Here's what happened. X-rays gone mental and apparently has the Mad King and Corpirate under his control along with a bunch of other villains. We need to not get caught and to find where they have my stuff. It'll help us in the next step."
Mogar nods and the two hurry to leave the basement of cells. They get up the stairs no problem and keep low to the ground in a crouch as they move through the building. They pause to peer around a corner just in case someone or more is there but they see no one.
"They must all be out doing something elsewhere." Vav says then looks to Mogar. "Any sign of a scent that might lead us to my stuff?"
"Two scents." Mogar says pointing to down one way then down another.
"Let's get a close look and try to judge which one has my stuff." Vav says then looks only to gasp and duck down into hiding with Mogar doing the same. "We need to wait until that goon leaves. We can't alert them to our presence just yet." He hisses quietly.
Mogar nods and the two wait in silence for the enemy goon to leave.
They listen to the footsteps as they move.
Vavs heart starts to race a little and he tries to quiet his breathing while ignoring the drop of sweat dripping down his neck. He knows that they might not find what they are looking for if an alarm sounds or if they are caught. He hears the footsteps pause for a few moments and almost holds his breath in hope that the goon doesn't come this way. He soon hears the goon walk away down the other way making him relax as the footsteps move away. He hears the footsteps pause so the two of them continue to stay out of sight using their ears instead.
"Did you get it done?" A slightly echoed voice asks.
"Yes." Another slightly echoed voice responds. "All placed in storage." He confirms.
"Good. Then come along. There is still work to be done." The other voice says then it is heard that the two walk away.
Vav moves out of hiding when the footsteps are far enough away. "Guess we're going this way." He whispers and leads Mogar as quietly as possible down the hall the one goon came from. He scans each door as they walk trying to see if the room will be labeled. He turns to his right and pauses making Mogar also stop walking. "I think this is the room." He says getting a good look at the door that is a light brown colour with a sign saying authorized access only. He opens the door and finds a whole bunch of boxes stacked on shelves as well as on the ground. "Time to start searching." He says.
Mogar, who put his sword away, moves further in sniffing the air and a few boxes. He continues until he ends up grabbing one and tossing it to the middle of the room. He turns no longer sniffing.
Vav jogs over to it and falls onto his knees opening it to find his Vav suit as well as at least some stuff Hilda gave him. "Perfect!" He says with a smile. "God job Mogar. Can you see if there is anything else that maybe smells of Hilda or Ash or even Rusty?"
Mogar nods and begins sniffing the boxes again.
In the meantime Vav gets dressed into his Vav suit before he even bothers with anything else in the box.
Once Mogar is done the other is dressed with the clothes he was forced to put on laying on the ground. He watches as the other begins gathering what's left in the box before looking at him.
"Did you find anything?" Vav asks in which Mogar shakes his head. "That's okay. We'll work with what we have. We now have to find X-ray. We have to find out what happened or what's wrong with him." He says glancing to make sure he has everything.
The two hurry out of the room and try to figure out which way from there.
Elsewhere...
"The device is ready." The Mad King says walking over to X-ray.
"Thank you my love." X-ray says moving closer and as he paces his hands on his shoulders he leans up giving a quick kiss on his lips. He shares a loving look with him before pulling away. "I got word that the Corpirate has done his part as well. Now the city will fall under or command."
"The Mad King and the Rose King will stand side by side. With the Corpirate being there too." The Mad King agrees. "The city will fall and bow to us."
X-ray who is also known as the Rose King smirks widely. "Yes. It will." He then chuckles a little softly for a short moment.
The Mad King also smirks at the very thought of ruling the city. He moves closer bringing his arms around the others waist pulling him close.
The Rose King lays against the other enjoying the feeling of being loved and cared for.
They stay like that for a few moments before pulling away.
"Do you have it?" The Rose King asks.
"Right here." The Mad King brings up some kind of gun that looks like something from a fantasy Tv show.
It has a dimly coloured white round body, three green rings fit around the muzzle like it has tied it shut and the muzzle is like a cylinder with a hole in the middle. The trigger is a nice grey colour.
"Perfect." The Rose King nods. "Let's do this." He takes the lead and with the Mad King at his side they head on out.
The goons are at the entrance area excited and ready to go.
The Mad King and Rose King stop to look out at their army who all too eager to get going. The two share a smirk with each other knowing that this will be nothing more than a piece of cake. They turn back to their army and begin walking again. They are able to just keep walking as the goons who make up their army part to allow them through. They make it to the front and turn as the goons move back to a more army like crowd.
"Loyal followers! It is time to set to work!" The Rose King announces raising his voice to do so. "Do as instructed and it will all go well! Lets do this!"
The army cheers raising at least one hand as they do so.
