Ch 9: the revolution
Kaiba closed his eyes as his life flashed before his eyes. Then there was silence, Kaiba, opened an eye, Agent Blackstar and Moonlight was still in front of him pointing their guns. Kaiba open the other eye "Am I dead?" he asked, "If you were died you wouldn't be able to talk to us," said Blackstar. "But then…" Seto Kaiba looked the wall behind him there a huge bullet hole behind him. "That was only a warning shot, sweetheart," said Blackstar. "We're not as brutal as Agent Dark," said Moonlight with a grin "besides we would. "We want know one question," said Moonlight
"Why did you help that freak?" asked Blackstar.
The metal tri horned dragon was still holding Agent Lighting in the air as Agent Thunder look in horror. "Any last wishes?" asked Zoey with evil grin that made her look like a villain from a comic book. "Please spare me, I…was…I was only following orders," Lighting said whimpering. "Am I really supposed to believe that?" asked an angry Zoey. "But we were project Z, Dr. Whitman told us to watch over you" said Thunder. "Don't ever call that name again you jerk, my name is Zoey remember that!" Zoey said enraged.
Steven had stuff Yugi into a body bag alive, "how am I supposed to breath?" asked Yugi from inside the body bag. "Don't worry there are tiny holes in the body bag you'll be able breathe. Ready for phrase two, Yugi?" asked Steven. "Yes" he answered. Steven slipped his costume on again, which was a disguise of Agent Light. In addition, he carried the body bag out of the room.
Agent Dark turned around saw a blonde haired guy with dark brown eyes with a plain white t-shirt and jeans. "Great company" said Agent dark. "Hands off my wife" said the blonde man with a New York accent. Mai opened her eyes to look at her husband "Joey?" she said surprised to see him, yet happy too. "Ahh yes you must the whore's husband," said Agent Dark. "My wife not a whore!" shouted Joey. "Well she was fun to play with," said Agent Dark. Right then Joey punched agent Dark in squarely in the face; an evil grin went across his face for it. Right then Agent Dark smiled and said, "Is that the best you got Blondie?" he chuckled.
Agent Light carried Yugi's body up to Whitman's room. Dr. Whitman was napping in his room, he woke up "What is it Agent Light?" he barked. "Sir, I killed Yugi," said Agent Light, "He tested out normal, but didn't the spiky kid say he shared his body with five thousand year old pharaoh?" asked Whitman. "Maybe Yugi was crazy or did drugs," said Agent Light. "Alright get rid of the body" said Whitman. "Yes sir," said Agent Light as he carried out the body bag. Then dr. Whitman went to sleeping again.
"Freak?!" shouted Kaiba. "Yes, a freak that has to be cut off from the world," said Blackstar. "Yeah it's for the world's own good that, freaks like Project Z be shut off for the world."
"Her name is Zoey, and she is more human than you two combined," snapped Kaiba. Both agents laughed, "Please you actually give that freak a name?" laughed Moonlight. "If you ask me you two are the freaks; and you are both cowards to not even give me, your real names," said Kaiba with a smirk.
"I'll show cowards "said Moonlight the gun directly at Kaiba. This time Kaiba knew it was not a practice shot, he could even see the bullet inside the barrel ready to fire at him.
"…Pro… I mean Zoey please…" begged Agent Lighting. Zoey laughed a sinister laugh, "It's to late for that" she said. "No don't" begged Lighting.
Agent Light walked down to a random hallway he made sure that there was no cameras, once he was sure there no cameras or nobody spying him he unzipped the body bag he was carrying, Yugi come out it. Alive and he was not too happy, "I don't do drugs," said Yugi. "Hey if you have better explanation, I'd like to hear it," said Agent Light. Yugi thought about it "Come on time is money" said Agent Light. Yugi then heard someone begging for mercy and ran in that direction. "Wait Yugi hold on; we want Whitman to still think you're died," said Agent Light chasing after him. Yugi then stopped in front of a door label 'lab room' and saw a metal Tri horned dragon holding up a bald guy with army pants on he was alright, but he had deep gnash wounds on his face which made him bleed, Yugi saw him begging for Zoey to spare him.
The Metal tri horned reached its claws far behind him while agent Lighting begged and pleaded for his life. "Stop Zoey!" a familiar voice screamed.
"Stop Zoey!" shouted Yugi from behind the lab door. Then Agent Light put a hand over his mouth to "Shh" him "Yugi, don't let them see you"
Agent light looked as his daughter stopped a minute "don't do this Zoey" whispered Agent Light.
Zoey thought she was seeing things because in front of Agent Lighting stood Atemu her guardian angel as if protecting him from her. "Out of my way Atemu!" shouted Zoey; "You can't kill an innocent man, Zoey," said Atemu giving her a narrow stare.
Right then Yugi felt something in his heart it felt as if he had found a lost friend. Agent Thunder was scared now because it seemed as if Zoey was daydreaming he does not know what going on but he was too scared to do anything.
"What makes you think; he's innocent, he works for Whitman!" said Zoey. "Just because someone works for an evil man doesn't mean he is evil," said Atemu, "Didn't he just say that he was only following orders?" asked the angel like Pharaoh. "And their orders were to make me suffer!" argued Zoey. "Zoey listen…" started Atemu. "Why Atemu, why are you betraying me …I thought… I thought you were my friend," said Zoey crying. "I am still your friend, that is why I'm warning that, you can't let angry and hatred make do something you'll regret; that was my mistake and it cost me my best friend; don't make the same mistake I did," he said. "I know you were lonely and suffered a lot but please I know, you're better then this" said Atemu. Zoey knew that her angel was right so she let Agent Lighting go. Then Thunder moved away from Zoey, as fast as he could as if she had a disease. She looked back at her guardian angel and him gave her a thumb up and disappeared.
Agent light garbed Yugi hid in the nearest room they could find. "Are you ok Yugi you look like you've seen a ghost," whispered Agent Light. "…I… don't…Atemu," said Yugi a little shocked. "Your friend right?" asked Agent Light. "It felt as if he was in that room with Zoey" said Yugi feeling himself back to normal. "That's weird," said Agent Light. "Yeah…weird," said Yugi nodding coming back to reality. "Come on we need a plan," said agent Light Yugi nodded. Agent Light looked around and recognized the room they were in Agent's Dark's room.
Zoey opened the lab door and looked all over the place for cameras there were none. Zoey had no idea where she was going but then she got a great idea she turned around to faced agent Thunder and Lighting, The agents hid thinking that Zoey decide to kill them after all; "Hey you two boys; know where Whitman stored the other projects?" Agent Thunder stepped forward "I will lead you there, on one condition." "What's that?" asked Zoey. "The dragon goes" said Thunder. "Fine but you try anything funny, I will hurt you worse than I did Lighting," said Zoey. "Reverse" said Zoey, the metal Tri horned dragon turned back into a huge metal table. "Lead me, Thunder," said Zoey. Agent Thunder went outside and walked down into the hallway, with the huge metal table followed her.
Yugi looked around, the wall were pained black there was a beat up punch bag; there were skull and crossbones everywhere; there were billons of Playboy magazines scattered all over the room. A cardboard out of a man with a bull eye and bullets all over and there were empty bullet caseing, he even had two computers; one them had a video cam of Mai; Agent Dark was recording himself rapeing Mai so he got off it any time he wanted. Yugi was sick and disturbed at the same time. This disgusted Agent Light as well, "We can help your friend Mai from here but it will take awhile because of the system meltdown." "Come we have to try" said Yugi. Agent light nodded and started to work on agent's Dark computer.
Kaiba closed his eyes again but this time he felt something tackle him on the ground right when the gun was shot. He quickly opened his eyes as he hit the floor he realized Pegasus just saved him. 'I just saved by the man who once stole my soul can it get any more ironic' thought Kaiba, before agents Moonlight and Blackstar could even blink Pegasus grabbed their guns and pointed at them.
"Hello girls long time no see" he said with a smirk, "Agent Peg?" said both agents "Now help Kaiba up, give me the keys," said Pegasus. Agent Blackstar got Kaiba off the ground, while Moonlight tossed Pegasus the keys. They watched as he freed Kaiba; Pegasus and Kaiba went of the room and locked the room behind them. "That will keep them busy," said Pegasus. "Don't ever mention this to Wheeler," said Kaiba in his old mean tone. "My lips are sealed Kaiba boy," said Pegasus with a smirk, Kaiba rolled his eyes.
Agent Dark and Joey fought each other until they both had to catch their breath, "you fight… well for a scrawny guy" said Agent Dark. "I'm not… scrawny," said as Joey tried to punch him square the face again, but this time Agent Dark caught it. Agent Dark grinned as Mai tried to regain her strength "Come on skinny guy, you're better than this" said Agent Dark.
Yugi watched as a man with a Cowboy hat pass the door, Zoey followed along with a giant metal table. "Hey Mr. Valentine how come a metal table is following Zoey?" "Because Zoey has reached a higher level mainly she would act sort of like a powerful magnet for like a day or two," said Agent Light as he was intently worked on the laptop.
Zoey was led to room with glass like tubes; it looked like something you would see in a science fiction movie. There were twenty-four tubes each of them with projects; there a table in right conner of the room with an old computer "Unlock them" said Zoey.
Agent Thunder; looked at her "all of them?" "Don't question me I said release them" said Zoey. Agent Thunder sighed and then pressed against the wall until he pushed a brink in the wall; all the glass tubes opened one by one all projects got out of the glass tubes, they were kids and adults of all races and ages.
All of projects stood there staring forward like zombies from a horror movie. "What did you do to them?" asked Zoey horrified. "Not me, mainly Agent Dark and Dr. Whitman" said Agent Thunder.
"You mean…" Zoey was too disturbed to say it. Thunder nodded, when Agent Dark's name was mentioned all the women and girl screamed and shouted as if mentioning a demon. All women stepped forward and said "I was raped by Agent Dark" Zoey don't know what the word 'rape' meant but from look of the women face's she knew it was bad. Then all the little girls stepped up and said, "He told us he could not wait until we blossom and gave a lustful grin."
All the men and boy stepped forward and said "Whitman and Dark would abuse us." Agent Thunder ran away while Zoey was not looking. "Then it's time we band together and overpower Whitman and Agent Dark," said Zoey. The projects did not say any thing and fell silence. "Come there twenty four of us and only two of them" said Zoey. "Must obey master," said all the projects.
Joey fought his best against Agent Dark but he was better; Joey lying in the floor tried and barely breathing; but somehow Joey got the strength to get up "You just don't know … when to quit?" said Agent Dark breathing a little heavily. "It's just the way I am," said Joey. Agent Dark spoke "You're sure are scrappy, but I hate scrappy" said Agent Dark drawing out guns out his black suit. He pointed the gun at Joey "Goodbye Blondie," said Agent Dark with smirk. He gasped the trigger and pointed the gun at Joey.
"The electric chains will let go your friend as I press the enter button" said Agent Light. "Hurry!" shouted Yugi as he watched agent Dark pointed a gun at Joey. Agent Light pressed 'Enter' on the laptop.
The chains unlocked themselves and let Mai go, Agent Dark seemed angry by this, "Someone's in my room they will pay!" shouted Agent Dark. Mai put her clothes back on, "Put them on, if you want I'll rip them off as soon as I kill your punny husband." said Agent Dark.
Mai did not move because she knew if she did, her husband would be died. "Feeling lucky Joey because we going play Russian Rorate" said Agent Dark smiling. What Joey did not know was the Agent Dark was cheating and loaded all the chambers with bullets. Agent Dark span the barrel and it stopped and he fired.
Mai watch as Dark pulled the trigger and bullet shot toward Joey, it seemed as if time was slowing down, she was helpless to help her husband. Then Mai realized something, that Agent Dark was right she was a project, and if Zoey could control her power maybe she can at least try. "Freeze," Mai shouted as she held out her hands.
Time froze, Mai knew she did not have much time left, so she switched Joey and Agent Dark's positions so intend of the bullet heading toward Joey it was headed toward agent Dark. Mai stepped away, "Unfreeze" said Mai.
Before Agent Dark got a chance to react, the bullet blasted him in the head "GAH," said Agent Dark and that he was his last words as he fell dead on the floor.
Zoey felt something inside her; it felt like relief, it felt like freedom. Zoey saw that the other projects felt it too, "code deachieved" all the projects said at once.
Zoey looked confused. "We're free, he's gone!" all the females screamed. "What happened?" asked Zoey. "A code was achieved to make us obey Whitman and the agents when Agent Dark or Whitman dies an unnatural death the code is deactivated," said one of the projects said. All of the women and little girls were crying tears of joy "We're no longer slaves or his play things."
"Yes, but don't celebrate yet; we still have beat the other agents, most importantly we take out Dr. Whitman" said Zoey. All projects looks surprised "You mean he isn't dead too" said one of the projects. "No but I want stand up, to him and show him a thing or two who's with me?" asked Zoey proudly. "If she can do it so can we" said a project. "Yeah!" all the projects shouted. "Down with Whitman" said Zoey rolling of the room. All projects marched behind her and chanted "down with Whitman".
Pegasus had led Kaiba around because he knew the building like the back his hand. Pegasus gave Kaiba a gun to protect himself. "You do know how to use it right Kaiba boy?" asking Pegasus tossing the gun at him. "I'll use on you if you don't shut up" snapped Kaiba. "Touché" said Pegasus. It was not long until they herd "down with Whitman," chanted in the hallways.
Zoey saw Pegasus rolled to him and hugged him "You came Uncle Peg!" she said happily. "Of course I would Z," said Pegasus hugging her close. "What am I chopped liver Zoey?" Zoey hugged Kaiba just then. "How did you get here?" asked Zoey.
"I think the CWS captured me, I don't know happened to Yugi, Mai and Joey" "Actually I just helped Joey find his wife," said Pegasus. "So Yugi is still missing?" asked Kaiba. "He must be because Joey said the CWS captured everyone but him," said Pegasus.
"No I have find him," said Zoey, "What about us?" asked a Project "we need you to lead us the war against Whitman." said another project. Zoey about thought it "Uncle Peg would look for Yugi please?" asked Zoey, "I will Zoey you be careful" said Pegasus walking away. "Zoey, do you want should someone go with you?" asked Kaiba. "No Kaiba this is our fight" said Zoey looking at all the other projects. Zoey turned around, raised her arm, and shouted, "It's time for our revolution!"
