Chapter 5

Cool.. you just gotta keep cool...

Keep COOL? How can I do that, I just killed someone! I just lived up to what used to be! A cold-blooded killer!

Toxin stopped running as she reached a secluded forest, her heart thumping against her sides, her breathing increased, her head hurt a lot. She had no idea what got over her, but what made it worse is that she craved to see more innocent blood spilt. She craved to gain that excitement as she stepped on peoples' blood-soaked bodies. She craved to kill again.

But she couldn't do this alone...she wanted someone, someone in particular, to help her. Guilt stabbed her heart, but she ignored it. Something evil came over her, and she didn't know how she'd ever be able to control it... It didn't matter now, she needed to get to Shane at once. And so she headed off north, to the ear, her closest exit.

She arrived a half an hour later at the ear, guards patrolled the area, on the look out for any unwanted immigrants and such. Toxin strolled casually up towards them, they spotted her and frowned.

"You have a pass with you, miss?" one of them asked.

"No, but you're gonna let me pass!" she demanded, landing a swift kick to the guard's groin, causing him to double-up and keel over in pain. His colleagues quickly dived into action and attacked, Toxin was just as quick to fight back and succeeded with minor injuries to her arm. She walked passed the unconscious bodies and broke through the barrier, making her way out of the ear. She noticed that Shane was beside Frank, it seems that she was helping him make dinner (a healthy one by the looks of it, as Shane was peeling carrots). She clambered down on Frank's shoulder and studied the distance from his shoulder to Shane's. Toxin stepped back a good bit and broke into a full-speed run and jumped as soon as she reached the edge, she landed on Shane's shoulder, stumbling a bit from the force of the jump, and made her way into the city through Shane's ear.

It hadn't changed from the last time she was here, which was almost two years ago, she sneaked passed security as she didn't want to draw too much attention to herself and made her way to the Police Station, she wasn't gonna hesitate and give up now. She'd have to kill every cop in sight if it meant getting what she came for. She opened the door and was surprised that no one immediately tried to attack her, she walked up to a cop at the desk.

"Oh, hello...you're Toxin right?" the cop asked, cocking one brow.

"Yes.. I've come here to pay a visit to the lethal virus, Thrax." she said calmly.

He raised his eyebrow once more and finally backed away from the counter. "Follow me." he said bluntly, the sound of his keys rattling as he moved towards the door. She followed him down the path towards the regular jail cells, he stopped at another door and unlocked it, obviously this was the restricted section where they kept lethal viruses, as he was re-locking the door Toxin jumped into action and smashed the cop's head hard against the door, leaving a trail of blood against it as he slid down, unconscious. She snatched the keys from his hand and made her way down the corridor, peeking in at each locked room from the small window on the door. It was the last one on the left where Thrax was kept, she shoved the key into the lock and unlocked the door, Thrax looked up, surprised to see that it wasn't a cop. Though the room was pretty dark so he had no idea who this person was as her form was completely unidentifiable in the dark.

"Leah?" he asked, uncertain.

"I'm not your Leah." came the harsh reply, Toxin walked up to him, grabbing hold of the shackles on his hands and unlocking them, then starting on the ones around his ankles. Thrax then could see her face clearly.

"It's you..the one that was with Leah that night..." said Thrax, frowning.

"The name's Toxin," she said, backing away to give him some space as she set him free.

"Why are you helping me escape?" he asked, rubbing his wrist where the shackle used to be.

"Because I've come to the conclusion that Frank needs to die..." she said coldly.

"I see...I like the way you think.." said Thrax, smirking, placing a claw under her chin. She couldn't help smiling back.

"We've gotta stay undercover for a while here, until we sort out a plan. First thing's first, let's escape through the back. It'll draw less attention, and the walls out here aren't as strong." said Toxin. Thrax extended his left claw and melted a large hole in the wall, large enough for the both of them to escape through it. They disappeared into the darkness, leaving only evidence of what they had done behind them.

7:30pm: Diaphragm, Frank City

Police bent over and took snapshots of the dead she-cell, Ozzy scratched his head, confused. Leah, Rex, Roxy and Drix were all standing by in horror, also confused.

"Who could have done such a thing?" said Drix, looking away from the gruesome sight before him.

"Some crazed lunatic no doubt," said Ozzy, pacing up and down.

"It's just so horrible.." said Leah, wrapping her arms tightly around each other.

"Don't worry, we're gonna fuckin solve this crime scene for sure," said Ozzy determinedly. He looked back at the corpse and grimaced. "What the actual fuck! That is messed up shit right there!"

"Ozzy will you stop freaking out!" said Drix irritably.

"Like hell I'm gonna stop - do you see this motherfucking shit right in front of you?"

"I see it! I get it all right! Just stop freaking out and let's all just go home and calm down! We'll figure this out, just let's not think about it at the moment," said Drix angrily.

"Drix is right, let's just go back ok?" said Roxy unnervingly.

Ozzy bit his lip and sighed, "Fine. Fine! We'll just discuss it at home then, this kinda sick fuck right here just really bothers me y'know? We haven't had a murder like this in some time now, actually, it isn't even that common anymore...it's just really suspicious..."

"Well, neither of us like it so can we just leave?" said Leah, pleadingly.

"Ok, let's go."

All five of them left the police to their work and made their way back home. Where they at least thought they were safe, for now.

11:00 pm: Kidney region, Shane City.

Thrax peeked out through the shabby curtain, checking if anything that was likely to ruin their plan was out there. He sighed.

"We can't incubate here for long, police obviously already know I've escaped." said Thrax, pullng the curtains shut and pacing up and down.

"I know, that's why we're going back to Frank. To incubate there until we sort out a plan," said Toxin, resting on one of the couches, her arm perched upon it, her head resting against her hand. She watched Thrax pacing. "Calm down, we'll be out of here as soon as possible, just relax for a while. Enjoy your...company.." she added seductively.

Thrax stopped at looked over at her. A little smirk played upon his lips.

"You're right, babeh. I should enjoy my...company. After all, being locked up in that jail for almost two years has certainly deprived me from something...I kinda miss screwing my baby though..." said Thrax, placing his index claw underneath Toxin's chin.

"Well, you've got another baby here to be screwing, and she ain't gonna protest," said Toxin, pulling him towards her, her lip crushing against his.

It wasn't long before both of them were completely bare, Thrax thrusting his throbbing member inside Toxin and fondling her soft breasts.

"Fuck, it feels so good after such a long time. Makes me feel like a fucking virgin again," said Thrax, between thrusts.

"You better last long then," said Toxin, breathing heavily.

"Oh, I will, babeh." Thrax smirked.

It was gonna be a long night for sure.
