Laboratory - Red

Chapter 32 Maria Aggy

Sleeping in the position of many minds is unsatisfactory. But still all my energy was sucked out because of yesterday's events. Especially the shooting scene that makes a heart marathon.

After taking a shower and not changing clothes, I sat down at the dinner table. Nothing more. Just watching Erina and Catrina prepare breakfast, before the two of them ask me questions.

Finally breakfast is ready. Fried rice with a pleasant smell that certainly arouses my appetite. Even though the smell of my clothes was unpleasant, even though I also did not know what would happen in the future. But eating is number one.

"So when can I go home, brother?" Before actually eating the fried rice made by Catrina, I asked.

Erina just shook her head.

"Eh? Why so?"

"Just because of Ms. Neny I couldn't sleep well all night. Forgive me for having to involve a girl your age in this reckless act. But there's no other way to finish him off".

Waited for a moment. The three of us chose to devour Catrina's cooking which was not because it made her hungry. Really delicious. After that, we will continue to talk.

"I'll come along". Catrina interrupted, which of course made me choke, coughing. Immediately I took a glass of water to drink. I thought, how could that beautiful and meek veterinarian who was not at all involved in this matter, have to interfere fighting life and death in order to fight against that laboratory woman.

"No need to worry, Aggy" Catrina smiled, still steadfast in choice. Moreover, it seemed like Erina was not bothering about it either.

"According to others, in the opinion of the masses...Ms. Neny is just an ordinary woman whose presence in this world will not have a major negative effect. Although he is still in exile now, but I, who will still recognize him as a friend and superior, will certainly refute all such reckless experiments.

"It's okay if he's gonna cut my hand off, it's okay if the hot sulfuric acid doesn't play it hits me directly on my skin, even if I have to die. At great risk, with this beating heart, I will try to kill him. Even if you have to sacrifice life."

Catrina and I simply responded with silence, millions of languages looking at each other. And I can understand. Although Erina was adamant in fighting Neny, she remained the only sane employee who still respected the boss.

These two days with this little family taught me what family, love, and friendship mean. Am I just a burden? It's of no importance to them at all. Moreover, I have no blood relation with Erina or Catrina. But in fact they both accepted my arrival with pleasure and sincerity of course. How nice it would be to stay with Erina and Catrina forever.

I cannot describe it at length. However, Erina. That nice 24-year-old woman. Her hair was long wavy, black thick. His nose was sharp, and his eyes were sharp.

Although he looked gentle, it turned out that his fighting ability was quite good. The body's strength is also very strong. And that stamina. This is the real dream woman.

And Catrina. Every time I was close to Erina's older sister made me feel like a real home. Not a house that has a roof and a pedestal, but a comfort that I have never had before.

There are many differences between these two women, not just about physical form, but also personality. Catrina is softer. And it doesn't seem as strong as her sister.

And after breakfast, perhaps out of boredom or mental preparation, I noticed that Catrina was silent on the porch with a blank look. As if thinking of something. There was no other activity to think of, so I approached the woman, then sat down next to her.

"I'm only worried about my sister, not myself" he said, still blankly staring, groveling as possible.

"But Erina's sister is a tough woman. And actually this problem will not run if not Erina's brother who handles it".

It was quiet for a moment, then we both sighed while enjoying the morning dew.

"You know what, Agg? Actually I'm afraid, afraid to fight because I've never done it before." Now he looks at me, still with his best face that will never make me tired of looking at him. "But it must be even scarier if I lose my sister".

I rubbed his back smiling back, as if we were best friends who encouraged each other, strengthened each other. Because to be honest, all this warmth I've never felt. I've never been this comfortable with a woman I just met in a matter of days. And now I wish more; for Catrina to be well in the future.

"Sister Erina ever been in martial arts lessons?" I asked the original question in order to melt the atmosphere. Enough is enough, he's worried about his brother.

"Erina. Everything was independent, even I was amazed at his fighting ability as well".

So I just nodded in understanding.

***

And the day has finally come. After finishing preparing everything, including physical and mental (possibly), the three of us boarded Erina's car. Still at standard speed.

And at that moment my heart was racing, like my whole body was burning with passion or anxiety, just like Catrina did. Damnit. We approached the enemy's place, and I was sure that Neny had prepared everything, as if he had been waiting for our arrival.

And the car stopped. Just like my heart stopped beating. Empty hands! Seriously, I fight with my bare hands? Just mental capital? But I think Erina has thought carefully before.

And Erina came out first. I was amazed to see his body wrapped in PPE. So did me and Catrina who finally followed.

And the door was kicked by Erina, making my heart beat harder. But it was quiet, always like this before the surprise attack came. What a stale tactic in my opinion.

And finally a lot of gun shots were welcomed, when we had already entered the lab. Put me down. But Catrina pulled my arm, made us jump, as soon as dodging. And again, I was amazed by their agile movements.

"No need to get down! Just avoid it!" Erina exclaims.

I don't even know what's gonna happen next, no matter what the plan is. But Erina first hit one of the employees and snatched her gun. Strictly challenge other employees.

I'm honestly amazed by him, but I can't tell you in a situation like this. Catrina and I just kept quiet about Erina's tactics from behind her body.

"Let's down!" He exclaimed louder, his soft voice turning into thunderous, scaring all the employees. Surprisingly they just complied and put down the gun.

"Hey, there's nothing I can make a samsak here" he grumbled to stay alert with the muzzle of the raised gun.

Erina retreated slowly, then walked half a run towards one of the rooms. And that's the room we fought in yesterday. The place where I was placed on the bed. And it will probably be our next battle arena. Now just open the door, and get ready with Neny's plan.

The door was not locked from the inside, so Erina freely entered. Then with me and Catrina, it was only on her request not to split up and stay alert because at any time Erina would need us.

"He's not here?" Erina whispered to me, knowing that the room was quiet, including with a table that had previously contained many laboratory equipment, now only a few. Such as syringes, droplets, and test tubes only.

But it turns out my heart beats faster than before. My hair is on my feet, and of course I'm agape. We're surprised!

Neny kicked Erina in the back, out of nowhere. The woman looked fitter, looked fresher, and did not escape with her horrible smile.

"You want to fight me with your bare hands? E-RI-NA?" That is how it is said by placing emphasis on the last word.

Just a regular kick, just to surprise the opponent. So Erina stood stroking her back. He looked at Neny sharply.

"Yes, yeah. Please, anyway if I die, I won't regret it" Erina grinned back, preparing with the horses. He told me and Catrina to stay a few feet away, but remained vigilant. Good Lord! If something is going to happen in the future, how can I protect Catrina?

"I will fight biologically, not chemically" Neny added.

This fight, this tension, I can only watch with hope all is well. I want to help! I really want to, but I'm just a human being. Weak and ignorant teenage girls, especially by fighting.

The fight between the two is inevitable. Empty hands! Both are empty-handed, they hit each other and deflect.

Fortunately the first minutes, Erina was superior, she continued to hit skillfully making the opponent avoid defeat. But just for a few minutes, and so on Neny was superior, continuing to use his right foot. Fake leg. I'm sure it's not the usual prosthetic leg that's in the hospital for patients who have to be amputated. It looks kind of robotic, harder and at maximum speed.

I think his superior style is on the kick. And Erina who has meat wrapped in skin, will not be able to match the ability of artificial legs owned by Neny.

"Khilaf-lah! Then we end all this conflict of friendship" Erina said. And from his voice I knew he was tired. Then what's the plan? He said he could cope? So where's the evidence? I felt despair in the water of his face.

"Once a traitor is a traitor, Erina. Once you do that to me, then I'll never forgive you" Neny flicked his short, blindfolded hair.

Still not tired, Neny hit Erina's body with a kick. I don't know how many times he kicked, I can't count because of his speed.

Erina fell staggering, fresh blood flowing from her mouth making Catrina hysterical. But I have to prevent Catrina, have to protect her, waiting for Erina's uncertain plans.

"Let me help my sister, Aggy.." The woman slid out of my lock.

Oh God. I've killed two lives. To finish him off without a trace, as well as to manipulate others into not accusing me, should I now only watch these two women fight? Am I not able to help at all?

I went back to thinking maturely, continuing to look for gaps. This room is not too big. Around my room. If I fight it should be an arena that further corners the opponent. But yes, if it's my fault, but if I'm the one I'm losing? It's going to be ambyar!

I kept warming my brain. Remember that! I keep remembering. I am human, but different from others. Neny says I'm Edward Marcues' son, Neny says I injected animal DNA so I could be as strong as I wanted. But now what should I do? Just understanding my power I don't understand, let alone fighting Neny the chemist.

Nah! Erina shouldn't even be involved. Erina was only her friend who had been a friend for many years. It shouldn't be because Marcues Neny wouldn't be like this. There will be no great ambition to be the greatest scientist in the world. Then if she does not become this crazy woman, there is no way Erina will be hostile to him and then try to oppose all his reckless discoveries whose function can almost destroy the face of the earth.

So it's all because of Marcues? Is correct? God. It should not be Erina who was willing to sacrifice her life, willing to involve her older sister in order to destroy the laboratory monster. It must be me! Yep! I'm more involved than Erina Beatrice and Catrina Beatrice. They are not the least guilty. Precisely because of me, 'cause Marcues made a baby tube like me.

So. I, Maria Aggy, I will fight. I'll finish him off, then I'll rip the meat off.
