Enemies to Lovers - Part Eleven
Mohinder has fallen asleep at his computer. Again.
He realizes several things when he finally wakes up.
One, real sleep in a real bed would be wonderful.
Two, the keyboard is uncomfortable.
Three, when he sleeps, he drools, when he drools, it shorts out his keyboard.
Four, he misses home.
"I'm sorry for this Claire," he tells his newest patient.
She growls at him angrily. "Why are you doing this?" she asks, yanking at the straps holding her down.
"We need your blood," he says.
"What's he told you? That it will be good. That this will benefit the world?"
Mohinder does not reply.
"It's all a lie you know. He just wants to take over the world for his own selfish purposes."
Still no response.
"She's right you know," a third person says. Mohinder turns to see Peter and Sylar standing in the doorway. "Believe me, I know from experience. He isn't exactly the epitome of sane."
"Your one to talk; look who you're hanging out with."
"Leave him out of this. Look, I realize that you want to fix what you've done to yourself, but you don't have to do it here. If my father gets his hands on this drug, he will destroy everything. I'm sorry, but we can't let that happen."
Mohinder knew he had two choices: one, let them destroy his research, or two, fight back.
He chose to fight back.
'Purge all the computers,' Peter orders Gabriel in his head as Mohinder attacks him.
Gabriel nods almost imperceptibly and obeys.
"What happened to you Mohinder?" Peter asks as they battle. "You used to want to help people. What happened?"
"I am helping people," he argues.
"By killing them?" Peter asks.
He takes Mohinder down almost in an instant after figuring out how to use Sparky's power. All he had to do was concentrate for a moment and he was completely immobilized.
"I'm going to find a way to help you," he tells Mohinder's conscious by still body. "I promise you that."
Peter took the time to rescue Claire from the bed she is strapped into in one of the observation rooms before returning to Gabriel and Mohinder.
"You done?" he asks his brother.
"Just about," he says, pulling a flash drive from the last computer. "Let's go."
Peter levitates Mohinder into the air and begins floating him ahead of them as he, Gabriel and Claire exit the lab.
Gabriel turns, just as he walks out the door and sends a wave of lightning into the room, effectively destroying everything in it.
