Disclaimer: People do not usually show what happens after Android 17 and 18 are captured, but I am in this chapter, so yay! Lol. Never thought I would start off my chapter like this, though...Well anyway, I really hope you enjoy. I might write another story to their past if I have the time. As i said before, ENJOY THE LAST CHAPTER OF 'be careful what you wish for'!
'Where am I?' Chris wondered, as he lay on what looked to be an operating table.
He could hardly make out what was in front of him, his sight was so blurry. He kept blinking his eyes, but it didn't make much of a difference. All he could see was a grayish sort of color above him that probably was a ceiling. Trying to twist his head to the side to investigate further, he found to his dismay he could hardly move his head. What was wrong with him?! Fear shot through him like lightening. His heart was starting to beat so hard, he could feel it getting faster by the second.
"Help!!" He managed to shout to his amazement.
But it suddenly dawned on him that he sure enough was nowhere where anyone could help him. After all...That old man knocked him out, didn't he? He probably dragged him into whatever this place was of his! Oh, how dare he! He probably drugged him, no doubt about it! After all, he couldn't even move his own head! Much less his legs...Oh crud...Were those footsteps he could hear?
"Awake already, son?"
Chris could not turn his head to the side to make sure it was the old man, but he could tell his voice sounded just like from earlier, when he had shot his friends..How could he?! This man was going to kill him too, probably! Now, not only was fear flowing through his veins, but along with it anger.
"Who are you? What do you want from me?" Chris questioned, anger and fear quivering within the sound of his voice.
The man chuckled, his footsteps coming to a stop as he was to the left side of Chris, leaning over him to make sure he could see him, since he obviously knew Chris couldn't move his head. His hands were behind his back...Strange. Was he hiding something from Chris?
"Well, I might as well enlighten you. After all, I do owe you that much in return for your kindness of handing your life over to me." The man spoke sinisterly.
"What?! Who said anything about me 'handing over' my life to you?!" Chris shouted in utter shock.
"I did. Now anyway-" The man was cut off by Chris as Chris went into a huge meltdown.
"How dare you?! Release me!! NOW!! You have absolutely no right to do this! You can go to jail if anyone finds out, you know that, right?!"
The man chuckled again. Obviously he wasn't too worried about anyone finding him anytime soon. He seemed to actually enjoy Chris's hostility. Why?
"And who could possibly find out? I'm up in the mountains, in the forest! Noone would ever expect an old man such as i myself to be living up here- use your head, boy." The man answered back.
"You think you got it all figured out, don't ya', old geezer?" Chris spoke in a lower tone this time."My friends you killed had heard the rumors about you and told my sister and I! You never got to kill my sister, I'm sure she will look up in the mountains for me! After all, she knew I wanted to explore these mountains to see if the rumor was true or not."
"Peh! Your sister can not stop me! She has noone to help her. She's all alone, I bet. And besides...If she dare come up here and intrude on my property, she will also be subject to my expiriments." The man spoke calmly.
"E-expiriments?" Chris stuttered.
"Yes. After all, I am Dr.Gero, one of the greatest scientists alive. I am known for making androids from scratch. But this time I am taking on a new challenge. This time I am going to test my abilities and see how i fair with working on a human." Dr.Gero explained himself at last.
"WHAT?! So your going to turn me into an android, your saying?! You can't do that!!" Chris shouted again.
"Oh, yes I can. You'd be amazed, my boy." Dr.Gero smirked down at him.
"If you really go through with this, I hope you know your one sick man!!" Chris shouted at him.
"I'm not sick; I'm just not normal." Dr.Gero excused himself and walked away from Chris, his footsteps fading as he got farther and farther away.
'Sis...Please find me...But please, oh please be careful!' Chris thought to himself.
Two hours later...
"Ha! Just look at her! She's totally buzzed. How many beers have you given her now? Ten?" Crystal's mother laughed at her.
"Yep. You think she's had enough?" Chaase asked.
"In fact, I do. So how about we play a game, you say?" Her mother suggested, walking up to the side of the bed Crystal was tied down to.
"What kind of game, you say?" Chaase asked, interested.
"You'll see. Just uncuff her, please. The keys are in that drawer over there." Her mother pointed towards a very small desk in a corner of the room.
Chaase gave Crystal's mother a questioning look, but soon enough walked over to the drawer and retrieved the key. As he walked over to unlock the cuffs, he spoke to her mother. "Do you think she'll even be able to get up? She can't even talk right!"
At least she was going to be able to get up...And maybe, just maybe have a chance at getting away from the wrath of these two. But...How could she escape, when she knew she could probably not even walk straight? This was going to take a miracle...Oh, please Lord help!
"M-mom.." Crystal stuttered.
"Heh, I'm surprised you could even say my name. What?" Her mother asked, as Chaase finished unlocking her.
"What do you mean...by game?" Crystal asked, slowly making her way off the bed; trying to adjust herself to moving again. After all, it was almost dark now.
"You'll see...But just make sure you do exactly what I tell you if you don't want to end up with a black eye." Her mother warned Crystal ahead of time.
To Crystal's amazement, she could actually stand up straight. "Okay..."
"Follow us...Down the stairs." Her mother instructed, opening the door and walking out into the hallway, Chaase right behind her and Crystal following suit the best she could.
Her mother silently walked down the stairs, and turned around to look up at her daughter. "The object of the game is to not fall. If you fall, your in for the beating of your life." Her mother spoke, crossing her arms.
"This sounds fun." Chaase commented, leaning against the wall and looking at Crystal. "So she has to go down the stairs without falling?"
"Yep." Her mother answered. "Now come down, Crystal."
Oh crud, this was going to be hard...It was hard enough to stand up straight without wobbling. Gulping, she grabbed hold of the rail for guidance and began her slow walk down the stairs.
"Don't hold onto the railing, please." Her mother said. "It's like cheating."
Not wanting to upset her mother, she moved her hand away from the railing and to her dismay, as she walked a step down, she tripped on an empty beer bottle and came crashing down to the floor, slamming into the wall as she did so. She landed in front of her mother, sprawled across the floor as blood seeped down her forehead. A small moan escaped her as she rubbed her head, pain flowing through every inch of her body.
"You already lost! That was no fun at all!" Her mother excalimed, raising her foot and then thrusting it forward into Crystal's side.
"Ooof!" Was all that came from Crystal due to having her air knocked out of her.
"Now get up! I'm giving you one more chance!" Her mother commanded, looking down at her daughter seriously.
It took all of Crystal's strength to pull herself up, but all thanks to God, she was able to push herself up despite the unbearable pain she was going through right now.
"Now, let's forget the stairs. Let's go outside." Her mother spoke calmly, already making her way outside.
"Why?" Crystal asked curiously, doing her best to not fall while she walked.
Chaase followed suit of them outside quietly for once.
Once outside, her mother replied. "Run."
"R-run?" Crystal questioned.
"Yes. I want you to run. But if you fall, I'm going to kill you. After all, I've had enough of your skinny little behind." Her mother answered.
"You'd kill your own daughter?" Chaase asked.
"She'd kill her own father." Her mother said.
"Good point." Chaase complemented.
Obviously it was even later than what Crystal had originally thought, because there wasn't any light outside. Well, except for a street light. The three of them were standing on the driveway, which wasn't very lengthy. No cars had passed by yet...Sadly. Knowing Crystal's luck not even a single car would come by until after she needed help. She just hoped it wouldn't be that way.
"You'd...actually kill me, Mom?" Crystal questioned.
"Of course! I never loved you, anyhow!" Little did her mother remember, but she had at one time.
That stung...so bad. Never, ever loved her? Her own mother? Sure, probably not now, but what about the past? She had to ask. "N-not even back when I was only like four or five?"
"I said never, didn't I?" Her mother spoke coldly. Not an ounce of care or love could be heard in her voice.
"How could you not?!" Crystal felt tears threatening to just burst out, but luckily she was able to hold them in. It was amazing that she even cared anymore whether her mother loved her or not.
Her mother instead ignored her comment and spoke more cruel words. "The only reason why we ever kept you was because you were an easy punching bag. Unlike Chris, we didn't have to use a tad bit more of aggresion."
Slowly, a tear made it's way down Crystal's bruised face. Man, she had promised herself she would not cry ever again...Why was it always these low lifes who made her cry and feel so miserable? It wasn't fair...
"Nothing to say, I'm assuming?" Her mother antagonized.
"No, I do. You know darn good and well I have respected you! I never did anything to cause you to want to abuse me or my brother! That is just an excuse! For so long we tried to please the two of you until finally we just could not handle the beatings anymore!! HOW DARE-" Crystal was outyelled by her mother.
"Shut it!" Her mother screeched. "I've had enough. Start running!"
"No!" Crystal stood up for herself. "I don't want to listen to you anymore! It's time i put my foot down!"
Obviously enraged, her mother balled her right hand into a tight fist. "You better listen to me, you brat!"
"You better listen to her, Crystal." Chaase advised calmly.
"I've had it!!" Her mother suddenly charged at Crystal, throwing a fist at Crystal, who despite her drunkness, was able to dodge to the side by a hair.
For once in her life, Crystal felt a sudden surge of guts to slam the mess out of her mother. Yea, after all, she deserved it! Oh, she was going to enjoy this! Taking this sudden dodge to her advantage, she pounced on her mother, latching onto her back.
"Get off me!!" Her mother shouted.
"Why would I do that?" Crystal spoke, biting down on her mother's shoulder as hard as she could, until she broke skin.
"Ahhh!!" Her mother yelped in agony. "Why aren't you helping me, Chaase?!"
"This is a fun cat fight. I wanna see who's stronger." Chaase answered back.
"Darn you!" Her mother shouted in frustration.
Crystal finally let go, a smirk of satisfaction very evident on her face. But this wasn't enough...She wanted to see her mother beg on her knees for mercy! Letting go of her mother, she took no time in thrusting her fist into her mothers middle back area, causing her mother to sprawl forward onto her knees.
"Like how it feels?!" Crystal spoke, enjoying herself to the max.
"How dare you disrespect your mother like this?!" Her mother was quivering with anger. She felt overwhelmed and trapped by her daughters sudden change in strength.
"Hah! Disrespect my but!" Crystal laughed at her mother. "Do you have any idea how long you have disrepceted me?"
Not expecting her mother to attack, her mother sent her foot flying backwards, straight up, slamming into Crystal's abdomen. "Ooof!!" Pain shot through Crystal's body almost immediately, as she bent over in pain. That was one strong kick her mother landed! She must be pretty mad that her Crystal had finally stood up for herself physically.
"Those first hits you laid are the last you'll ever lay." Her mother spoke, twisting her body around, now facing Crystal, and raised her foot up and pounded it into Crystal's head, causing her to fall over on her side, curled up in a ball while grabbing onto her now bleeding head. It wasn't bleeding very bad, just a little.
"Uhhnnn..." Crystal groaned in pain and agony.
Her mother got up to her feet and walked over to her daughter and bent down to look at her. Reaching her hand out, she pinched Crystal's arm painfully hard, causing a shreek to sound from Crystal. Ugh...She had to deal with the pain and fight, or she'd be in much more pain than this! Forcing herself, she let go of her head and grabbed onto her mother's wrist, twisting it as soon as she got ahold of it.
"Ahhhh!!" Her mother screamed out at the top of her lungs, pulling her arm back. "I'm going to kill your sorry little behind!"
Luckily for her mother, Crystal had broken her left wrist, which was her weakest. But, to Crystal's dismay and shock, her mother pulled out a gun that had been hidden in her shirt. It was not very big was why it could fit in there so easily. But it could still kill. Sadly.
"Wussy! Can't even finish a fight with me without having to whip out a gun!" Crystal egged her mother on.
"Uhm, Marie...I don't think you should kill her just yet." Chaase interupted.
"Why not?!" Her mother demanded angrily.
"Doesn't it feel much better to take your anger out on her physically? Beat the living mess out of her until she can't breathe!" Chaase advised.
"I have a better idea." Her mother's tone shrunk lower, as she raised the gun to her daughter's head.
"Fight me instead." Crystal pushed.
"Wanna know somethin'?" Her mother asked, a cruel glint in her eyes.
"What?" Crystal asked.
"Your an ugly piece of trash." Her mother lied, just trying to bring her daughter down. "I just wanted to let you know that before I send you straight to Hell."
"I'm not ugly! And- and I'm not a piece of trash, niether!" Crystal shot back.
"Why do you think you've never had a boyfriend?" Her mother tried to convince her.
It was true, she really had never had a boyfriend. But surely it wasn't because she was 'ugly'. Then again...Was she? No..No she couldn't be.
"You know what else? Noone will ever find your body when I kill you. You'll just be an addition to the soil in the ground. See, noone ever cared about you. Not even your brother! After all, if he cared, why isn't he here?" Her mother antagonized.
Anger flowing even more through Crystal now, she suddenly jerked the gun out of her mothers hand swiftly and pointed it at her mother threatenly. "The tables are turned now! Do you think anyone will care if you die, either? No! Just like me, you'll also be an addition to the soil!"
"Don't you dare shoot me!" Her mother growled.
"Wow, I'm amazed you've put up such a fight, Crystal." Chaase commented.
"Why aren't you saving me?!" Her mother asked Chaase.
"She could shoot me too, ya' know. Rather you than me." Chaase spoke bluntly.
"Have a safe trip, mother!" Crystal spoke, pulling the trigger,
Immediately a bullet flew from the gun and smack dab into her mothers heart, causing her to fly backwards onto her back. "Now you!" Crystal shouted before Chaase could move, pointing the gun towards him now. "This is for all the pain you've put us through! I hope you enjoy it, you jerk!" She pulled the trigger, and immediately a bullet flew from the gun and into Chaases knee cap, causing him to fall to the ground.
"YOU WRETCH!!" He screamed, grabbing his knee in pain.
Pulling the trigger, she fired another shot, this time it landing perfectly at where his heart was located. Blood was everywhere!
Suddenly, it dawned on Crystal that her brother was still in need of being found. Boy did she have a story to tell! She knew her mother wasn't dead, but instead dying. Let her suffer. Getting up woozily from all the pain, she walked out the driveway and down the street. What a mess she was...
An hour later...
Crystal finally had reached the forest again, and was now nearing the mountains after checking the cabin to see if her brother was anywhere in sight, which of course to her dismay he was not. Maybe he was out looking for her? Making her way up one of the many mountains, she had to do her best to not trip over herself. After all, she still felt buzzy. It was a miracle she hadn't thrown up. God really did help her out...That made her feel a bit better. But that good feeling was soon wiped away, because it dawned on her that she had murdered not only her father but now her mother AND Chaase!
After long lasting minutes and minutes, she finally reached the top of the mountain. Seeing as it was very dark outside, she could make out bodies lying on the ground thanks to the moonlight. Who were they? Were they dead? Only one way to find out!
She jogged over to the bodies to find to her dismay that...One of them was Teresa!? Oh no! What had happened out here? Was Chris dead too?! Oh please no! Grabbing Teresa by the shoulder, she shook her lightly. Nastily, she felt a moistness on her hands...Blood?
"Teresa! Wake up!" Crystal recieved no answer. It was all in vain.
Glancing over, she noticed Chaase and the cute guy she had talked to at the cabin. All dead. Not a single one to be breathing. But hey! At least her brother wasn't lying on the ground dead along with them.Her heart pounding again, she noticed a metal door. Could it be? Was there really someone living up in the mountains? Only one way to find out! But hey...Whoever was in there, if there was anyone, they probably were responsible for her friends deaths. So she should be careful.
Walking over to the door, she knocked on it as hard as possible. "Hello? Chris?" She spoke, with a tinge of hope.
No answer. So this time, she banged her body against the wall. A stupid idea, little did she know.
"Argghh!!" A man's voice shrieked, which sounded to be close to the door. "I'm busy! Leave me alone!"
So there WAS someone living up in the mountains here...The rumors were true, then! Maybe this person whom sounded to be a man knew where her brother had went.
"H-have you seen my brother? He has shoulder length black hair." Crystal boldly asked. This man must know that there were dead bodies outside his place..This was scary.
Suddenly, she heard footsteps coming closer, until the door opened up to reveal a disgustingly old man with wrinkles all over his face an a white beard in a lab coat. Light beamed from his laboratory and onto where Crystal was standing.
"Oh, what a mess you are. I'll have to clean you up first." The man spoke, ignoring her question.
"Huh?!" Crystal asked, backing away slowly.
"Come here." The man demanded, reaching his hand out and luckily grabbing onto Crystal's upper arm.
"Let me go!" Crystal struggled. He was actually pretty strong for an old man...Weird.
Suddenly, he jerked her forward, letting go of her and causing her to fall onto her knees, once she fell into his lab and quickly shut the door; locking it securely.
"So your the one he was talking about, eh?" The man spoke to himself.
"Who?" Crystal asked, deciding to instead of fight, take a look around the room.
"Your brother."
"Y-you have him here?! Where?!" Crystal demanded, getting up on her feet.
The man turned around momentarily and picked up something from a table behind him that consisted of many items and turned back around to face Crystal. "You'll find out soon enough."
"Tell me now!" Crystal badgered.
"How about no, you persistent brat!" The man spat at her, revealing a sort of gun that injected fluids inside someone from behind his back and fired it at Crystal, hitting her in the shoulder.
"Ow!" Crystal grabbed the needle and pulled it out, but not enough time sadly enough.
"See you in the morning dear." The man spoke as Crystal blacked out.
