Pain. That's the first thing that Eddie registered. A lot of soreness all over his body. Opening his eyes, he had no idea where he was, only realizing that he was in some sort of metal pod with a glass screen in front of it. His mind was racing, trying to remember what happened. *The parking lot... I was helping Professor Hamilton, then that goo got on me, and~* GOO?! I AM NOT GOO! Eddie was startled by the strange voice in his head. "What the fuck?! Who said that?!" I DID, DID YOU EXPECT ME TO NOT RESPOND TO THAT GRAVE INSULT? "Where are you? Show yourself!" I CAN'T, I'M TOO WEAK TO LEAVE YOUR BODY. "Leave my body? what do you-"It was then that he realized what this voice was talking about. " The goo... you're the goo from the parking lot!" I AM NOT GOO!! WE HAVE ALREADY GONE OVER THIS! "Then what are you? And where are we?" Any further conversation was halted by the sound of a new voice, a slender brunette man wearing a lab coat walked out of the shadows. "I believe I can answer both of those questions, Mr. Brock. I am Dr.Desmond, Head of Project Cadmus, which is the facility you are in right now. Apologies for the containment pod, but it was the only way to make sure that Project Symbiosis was properly contained, we have no idea when it will be done bonding with your genetic structure, after all." The newly introduced Dr. Desmond's ramblings did little to calm Eddie. "What's Project Symbiosis, and why was I brought here? And where is Professor Hamilton?" Dr.Desmond smiled, but it gave nefarious vibes, rather than genuine concern or sympathy. " In order, Project Symbiosis is one of many experiments that Cadmus has been working on to enhance genetic potential in living things. Specifically it is a living organism that can bond with any sentient organic being and give them incredible abilities. You were brought here because Project Symbiosis escaped its containment unit mid-transit, and bonded to you. And in regards to Proffesor Hamilton, while your concern is adorable, it is unwarented. You see, Hamilton is one of our employees here at Cadmus. In fact, he is the one who was transporting Project Symbiosis from another Cadmus location, and he's the one who brought you here." Eddie was in shock, he had stumbled onto a mind shattering secret, and he was betrayed by Hamilton, someone he was just trying to help. "I can tell that you're confused, and I'm sure you want to know what will happen to you now. Nothing good, I'm afraid. You see, once Project Symbiosis bonds with something, it stays bonded until the host dies. Which means, you will have to die, Mr. Brock." Desmond then brought over a metal trolley that was carrying several intimidating tools, supposedly meant to torture. "Now I'm not going to kill you outright. You see, you are the first human host that we have observed project Symbiosis bonding with. This is a perfect learning oppertunity, seeing how the host and Symbiosis react to varying degrees of pain." However, before Desmond can begin the torture, a black woman in a lab coat walks into the room. "Pardon the interruption doctor, but Gaurdian has found three intruders, they've locked themselves inside the room containing Project Kr." This news startled Desmond. "What?! Why wasn't I alerted sooner??" He then looks back at Eddie. "My apologies Mr.Brock. It seems I'm needed elsewhere. Enjoy a few more moments of quiet... they'll be your last." Dr. Desmond then turns around and walks out of the room, the woman behind him.
