Interrogator: "Performing experiments you say?"
Annalise: "Yes. And he was doing it with mutagen as well."

The girls had arrived home from their mission. But they could not rest yet. Osore took a breath. "Alright. Let's focus. Master has everything down in the basement--"
22Please respect copyright.PENANAiqPG0KSacC
"Of course it's in the fuckin’ basement," Tsunami scoffed.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAf1zuTeyKC9
Osore rolled her eyes. "We need to investigate and see what the hell he's doing with all that mutagen."
22Please respect copyright.PENANA4MI3tvUgQp
The girls prepared themselves to uncover the secrets hidden beneath the surface. As they descended into the darkness of the basement, they knew that their journey was only just beginning. When they got down into the basement, the sight sent shivers down their spines.... Hybrids, werewolves, werecats, dragons...he was experimenting on them...The girls snuck around carefully, trying not to bump into anything.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAFpv20elHen
Nova came across a testing tube holding a hybrid. It was an African teenager with curly hair crossing her arms over her chest. She was wearing a tight suit. She had white wings with golden webbing, white fox ears and tail. Alice looked at the label. It was a lightning dragon, with a mix of Arctic fox. Alice tilted her head in curiosity.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAxA3542mnoC
As the girls walk around, they see more and more hybrids that were affected by the mutagen. Ivy looked at the creations with a face of disgust.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAx3myKCTmww
"Hey girls, look at this" Osore called.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAQ6wGO7Dip4
The girls walk over. "It's a plan of some sort..." said Osore. Osore stared at it for a moment. But suddenly her eyes were wide with fear.
22Please respect copyright.PENANALjGbR24ra7
"Let me see!" said Nova.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAGIqOJ1qVeb
"No," said Osore.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAom1aGVAxLs
"Why?" Nova whined.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAWx1X3dSBJy
The girls froze as they heard a loud hissing sound. They turned around. The lightning dragon. She had been released. But by who? The lightning dragon looked at them with golden yellow eyes that sparked with lightning.
22Please respect copyright.PENANA3OQeJ91DHK
"We're doomed..." Frost muttered.
22Please respect copyright.PENANA0NuxhQUkMp
Without hesitation, the girls ran for dear life with the lighting dragon running behind them. And boy, was she fast...terrifyingly fast...The girls sprinted through the dimly lit basement, their hearts pounding with fear as they fled from the lightning dragon hot on their heels. Each step echoed loudly in the confined space, the sound of their panicked breaths filling the air as they raced towards the stairs leading to safety.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAeYxCrkoAff
As they ran, Osore's mind raced with possibilities, trying to piece together how the lightning dragon had been released and who could be behind it. But in the chaos of the moment, there was no time for answers, only the urgent need to escape before it was too late.
22Please respect copyright.PENANA2tkjYmHYdh
The girls reached upstairs, still being followed by the teenage girl.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAJRBhJwc1mF
"Quickly out the door!" Ivy exclaimed.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAoPFLPR9VBp
The girls run to the front door and outside.
22Please respect copyright.PENANA6kt8oGAO97
"I just hope she's not as smart as she looks," Nova said on the way out.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAMadu0ENUev
When the girls were out of the house, they stopped to take a breath.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAcUNhBfJOCU
"We should be fine... for now," Osore said in between catching breaths.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAgW4qRSRLMk
"I feel very bad for her," said Nova.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAiG2XjuClgg
"Why the heck do you feel bad for someone that just tried to kill us?!" Tsunami hissed.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAve72kl70aO
Nova sighed. "It's just...Being experimented on like that... it's not right."
22Please respect copyright.PENANAkalpuBuyqV
Tsunami shook her head in frustration. "That's no excuse for trying to attack us," she argued, "She made her choice when she was let loose!"
22Please respect copyright.PENANARCtzGK16Io
Frost remained silent, her mind was filled with questions and uncertainties, wondering what other secrets lay hidden in the depths of the basement.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAB14vJqil3q
Osore took a deep breath, her gaze focused and determined. "We need to find out who released her and put a stop to whatever plans they have," she declared.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAOBljz1Tyqy
The girls looked up as they heard creaking from the roof. The lightning dragon. It was there. The girls scattered in different directions.
22Please respect copyright.PENANApQP3MUvDFw
Osore ran through the streets of the neighborhood, her mind racing with thoughts of strategy and survival as she navigated the maze-like streets with determination.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAvfIsYsXWtR
Ivy jumped over fences and raced through backyards. Her eyes darted around, searching for any sign of a potential escape route or hiding spot where they could regroup.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAghITtYSwg8
Frost and Tsunami sprinted down the street, their breaths coming in ragged gasps as they pushed themselves to their limits in a desperate bid to evade capture. Their minds raced with thoughts of their friends' safety and the need to protect each other from harm as they raced towards the safety of a nearby park.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAtUCMe4JH5h
As for Nova, just as she had started climbing a tree, one of the branches snapped. Nova could feel her heart beat out of her chest as the lightning dragon walked closer. There was a loud screech, making Nova's fear rise. Another dragon landed before Nova and she fainted from the overwhelming situation.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAHOFKxxSG00
A few seconds later...
Nova's eyes slowly opened, her vision was blurry for a moment, before finally looking around and seeing Phantom in his human form, cradling her in his arms. Nova didn't know how she should react. This was an assassin holding her. Should she panic? Should she remain calm? As Nova gazed up at Phantom, her mind raced with questions, her instincts urging her to flee, to escape from the clutches of the enemy.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAQCjBFVTaG1
With a shaky breath, Nova forced herself to remain calm. "W-What...what are you doing here?" she asked, her voice trembling with uncertainty. Nova's voice quivered as she struggled to comprehend Phantom's unexpected presence, her heart pounding with a mixture of fear and curiosity. She searched his eyes for any hint of his intentions. Phantom's gaze softened slightly at Nova's question.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAlNkF9hjGv8
"I came to...to protect you," he admitted quietly. Nova's breath caught in her throat at his words, her mind reeling with disbelief. As she lay in his arms, Nova felt a wave of conflicting emotions wash over her.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAtZXXjDYamR
"I...I don't understand," Nova whispered, her voice barely audible above the pounding of her heart. "Why are you doing this?"
22Please respect copyright.PENANAWyG9IJ5q6U
"Because...because I need answers," Phantom confessed.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAbOdSQkiq4h
Nova shook her head. Where is home? This has to be a trap. Nova rolled out of Phantom's arms and sat in front of Phantom.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAD9SgU0nTQG
"What do you want to know?" she asked.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAG3LpJpvf7K
"Why did you try to find me?" Phantom asked.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAkMIZU74jJu
Nova shrugged. "Dunno. I guess I was just being dumb."
22Please respect copyright.PENANACBGlvvZdtX
"No you weren't," Phantom said firmly, "you were curious. You wanted to know more, just like I did."
22Please respect copyright.PENANAfxboFnYdnz
"So why did you back away," Nova asked, "why did you hide?"
22Please respect copyright.PENANAeSePSxsczu
Phantom was silent for a moment. "I..I I was...scared," Phantom stammered.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAG5018qazlz
"Don't like people seeing you as a weak lizard, eh?" Nova questioned.
22Please respect copyright.PENANA3kvYKko8jh
Phantom chuckled softly and scratched the back of his head. "Well, if you wanna put it that way..."
22Please respect copyright.PENANAeSLgV5mKs7
"So I guess you're not as brave as everyone makes you out to be," said Nova.
22Please respect copyright.PENANA7iVKzsht9w
"I guess not," Phantom admitted.
22Please respect copyright.PENANA9GptxUxl2b
Nova looked around as she heard Osore calling for her. Phantom stood and helped Nova to her feet.
22Please respect copyright.PENANAkHNY761kWJ
Phantom gave a small smile. "Stay safe, trickster."
22Please respect copyright.PENANAdiWzNaJI88
Nova returned the smile, giving a playful giggle, before running off to join her friends.
