Voltaire	Dr Ku	Come here for a moment.

Dr Ku	Voltaire	Raises a questioning brow. Why?

Voltaire	Dr Ku	His features would soften for a moment. Because.

Dr Ku	Voltaire	Because why?

Voltaire	Dr Ku	Does it matter?

Dr Ku	Voltaire	Yes. Because she has the sneaking suspicion that whatever he's planning for her isn't good. Will not budge until she knows what he has in mind.

Voltaire	Dr Ku	His eyes would narrow before that quickly faded. Fine she can stay there, simply wished to talk, not his fault he wanted to do it in... Closer proximity.

Dr Ku	Voltaire	Will talk to him at a distance. Knows better than to speak one on one with a gijinka that would take an opportunity at her.

Voltaire	Dr Ku	With a deep breath and sigh, he would begin. "You are going to cut the fox free... She deserves none of this. And not like she could actually kill this Travis."

Dr Ku	Voltaire	"Hmmm. I'm really not inclined to take on your demands. She's the one who bargained with me, and if she wants to keep you alive, then she will kill Travis for me."

Voltaire	Dr Ku	Assumes they are in some lab? Building at least? The spider would lean against one of the walls, pushing himself to a stand "See that's my issue... You're not going to kill me, now are you."

Dr Ku	Voltaire	They were several miles down beneath the earth in a networking of metal and concrete. The room they were currently in was her personal office where she sat behind a large desk covered in papers. She was already working on several diagrams for the subject that was recently brought back to her. Much work was needed to be done on her to bring her up to at least a level of being able to reevaluate her on a more adequate level. "Not at the moment I wont. Between the deal I made with her, and my own work, I don't have the time to begin dissecting you as of yet. Maybe later when I've sorted through this mess, I'll have time to contemplate what I want to do with you."

Dr Ku	Voltaire	"Not really. Your DNA is useful and can be easily copied to make others to mold into whatever I need. Weapons, servants, slaves, harvesting for fresh organs...all of it has a value and a purpose." Didn't even bother to look up from her desk to regard his sparking and big talk. Could easily put him down if she so wished for his insolent behavior. "I'm not sure who you've met, but I doubt they're are apart of my studies. Unless you're mentioning Celes, then she was at one point and I have no further need of her...save that she makes a wonderful pet and babysitter to my young clone. But I digress." Suddenly her eyes flickered from her papers to the spider. "If you really want to see one of My experiments, then I'd be more than happy to show some of them to you."
Voltaire	Dr Ku	Having been brought down within his ball, Volt would have no idea where they were, but fully assumed it was the facility he heard about in passing. Finally to his feet, most of his weight would shift to his good leg, for obvious reasons. "So I'm right. You don't give a damn if the fox does it or not... You're not planning on letting me go. I've met some of those who are under you... And you're sorely mistaken if I'm going to be some puppet like the rest of them." he'd let off a spark, a threat he liked to use quite often.

Voltaire	Dr Ku	Crossing his arms and listening to what the doctor had to say, he wouldn't seem impressed, as if she cared about his looks. "I've met that fish you keep that collar around, along with a little girl who I am assuming is Yours. And as for your experiments? I don't give a damn. You can beat and cripple me all you want, and I don't care what the fox says, but I am not going to be your little obedient pet." he was playing with fire, and only somewhat knew it. He was reckless, always ready to start a fight, but she must already know this. A hand would uncross and slide into a fold of clothing, seemingly fixing something, before crossing back over the other.

Dr Ku	Voltaire	Rose a brow at the mentioning of him meeting her clone. Her first assumption was that he met her while in the care of Celes. Those two were always together in some fashion. "Oh really? You met my clone? I wonder what she was doing with you....Mmm, I hope it wasn't something 'troublesome'." A small dark smile twitched at the corners of her lips, almost as if she was hoping he'd say something damming about either one of them. "Be a shame if she lost her other eye, or maybe I should take a limb from her this time." Hummed dreamily as she thought about it more. "But I'm getting ahead of myself. Now back to you." Snapped her attention back toward the spider fully. "You're assuming I'll keep you alive? No no. Creatures like you I enjoy alive only up until your death, which is usually on the operating table as I'm removing your organs. From there I can freely do whatever I want. Making a clone of you wouldn't be too hard, and neither would mixing your DNA with another to make something-c-

Dr Ku	Voltaire	entirely knew. Then it's a matter of what purpose will I give them, and how much they need to be prepared for their roles. You? You're only good to me as leverage and being dead. So I'll be biding my time until the inevitable and focusing on other things. Like subject '03'. I need to outfit her with upgrades more fitting than what she has. I also need to figure out where her counterpart '04

Dr Ku	Voltaire	entirely knew. Then it's a matter of what purpose will I give them, and how much they need to be prepared for their roles. You? You're only good to me as leverage and being dead. So I'll be biding my time until the inevitable and focusing on other things. Like subject '03'. I need to outfit her with upgrades more fitting than what she has. I also need to figure out where her counterpart '04' has run off to, and decide what to do with him should as his actions, or lack of, are deemed as a failure." Went back to sifting through papers and blue prints.

Voltaire	Dr Ku	He'd let out a chuckle, beginning to take heavily limped steps forward and towards the desk. "You think that threatening them is going to affect me...? I barely even know who they are, they are both quiet and scared little things. I am not one of those." his words wouldn't quite line up with how he felt. Truth was he was scared, terrified even, of what might happen to him and especially the fox he held dear, but he was good at bottling up such emotions. Even if it served to hurt him in the end. "And what we were doing is none of your business, it doesn't concern you even though I am sure you would beg to differ..." Growing closer to the desk he would slam his hands down, also using it to support his damaged limb "So are you going to continue being a stuck up, self absorbed, selfish piece of shit? Or are you just going to put things to an end. Please, show me your tests, enlighten me!" losing his cool once more, not caring if the fox would be against such actions. He is his own. -e-

Dr Ku	Voltaire	Even if he wasn't going to outright give her the damning evidence she wanted, she had other ways of learning what she wanted. Celes or Amylia was easy to manipulate if she tormented them enough through physical pain or alterations. A cold laughter filtered past her dark colored lips. "Oh my my! There's that mouth of yours! Now you're taking up my offer and being cheeky about it none the less." Moved to stand from her chair, moving slowly around her desk and behind him. In one motion she'd kick out to strike at his bad leg. "Be sure to keep up." Made her way across the room to a thick door of metal that opened once she neared it

Voltaire	Dr Ku	Gritting his teeth he would watch as she walked around, about to push away from the desk before falling into it with a thud. Wincing from the hit and keeping back a cry of pain, the spider would try to push himself up to his feet once more. "Damn bitch..." he'd mumble under his breath, getting to a stand and almost hopping to follow, grabbing the door frame and walls along the way for support. It took everything he had to not assault the woman then and there, try to end it once more.

Dr Ku	Voltaire	And if he had, he would have been dealt with on the spot. Outside the quiet sanctity of her office was a swarm of other scientists dawned in white lab coats scurrying about with their own tasks ahead of them. Now and again they would swarm around her, asking questions or giving reports on progresses made. All she needed to be rid of them was give a wave of her hand, and they'd disperse to be of use somewhere else. Onward she'd continue down the wide halls of metal, turning here and there until she found the elevators. A quiet buzz surrounded as unspoken curiosity was exuded as to the meaning of the doctor to be traveling with a newly captured gijinka. As soon as the doors opened she was through them and choosing her destination from a key panel. If he was able to follow in time with the small group following her, he'd experience a slight weightlessness upon the metallic box dropping down several stories to the sector she desired. Of course there were more scientists filling -c-

Dr Ku	Voltaire	the landing area, but they were all busy monitoring towering tubes filled with liquid and their contents. Each one held a different specimen in various stages of life. Little thought or regard was given to them as she continued further down to a long hallway containing thick metal doors on either side. Each door had a number painted on the surface and a small panel that could be pulled back to see what was in the room. Silently she counted the rooms, stopping before a specific door. "Lets look at this one shall we?" Pulled the panel open and stepped aside for him to look in. Should he do so, or not, the hybrid monster inside would charge at the door and slam it's body against it, letting out a sickening screech of anger.-e-

Voltaire	Dr Ku	The spider would continue to follow the doctor wherever she was leading him, seeming to zone off into his thought. Voltaire tended to keep to himself most of his life, staying out in the woods, hunting and making his living through more natural means. When he decided to move into society he was greeted by a Lunala, his first mate, and a Zoroark, his second. But things only got worse since that time... He wished for those days back, without all of this confusion, pain, and heartache. He would snap back to reality as the groups of strange people seemed to swarm about them and ask her countless questions that flew over his own head, catching many different looks and glances himself to which he would occasionally spark as to avoid anyone drawing closer. When he was brought to this door, and she pulled the panel and invited him to take a look, Volt would flinch and stumble backwards from the slam. Eyes narrowing upon this thing or at least from what he could see and make out -c-

Voltaire	Dr Ku	of it "What the hell is that thing... The hell are you doing!" full attention back on the doctor but only for a moment as he looked to the creature akin to a train wreck. He couldn't stop from watching. His thoughts would fall back to the comment she made about splicing different 'mons body parts to his own form, after dismemberment of course. "What is it!!!" he demanded, losing his cool once more as fear and flashed through the spider's eyes.

Dr Ku	Voltaire	Cold laughter rang softly from her lips at the sight of his fear and shock. "Do you like it?" She asked mockingly, already knowing the answer to the question. Long fingers slide to grasp the handle of the door, holding it firmly. "This lovely creature is a delicate combination between a golem, mightyena, and a pangoro." Pressed her entire body weight down onto the lever until the locking mechanism clicked. "DX-989-J49: Step out and greet our visitor." Her voice took on a harsh, commanding, bite to it's tone before pulling the door towards her person. A hulking mass of dark fur and rock lumbered out of the room. Long hair covered it's rock covered back. Eyes were hollowed, save for the intent of murder shining in it's depths. Deep guttural growl passed through it's long muzzle, it's breath so hot that steam left with every heaving breath. Despite it's ill will, the thing would not move until the master gave her order. "This is but one of my creations, made from spare parts of -c-

Dr Ku	Voltaire	useless creatures. I specialize in making other types of creatures too. Pokemon, gijinkas...something a little in between the two and anywhere else the imagination can wonder. Nothing is out of reach for me." Moved her hand up to caress the long thick fur. "Such a beauty. Now, back into your room." She commanded with a dark smile. Dutifully, it obeyed her command, sauntering back into the cell, where upon, she would seal him back up. -e-

Voltaire	Dr Ku	When she grabbed the handle he would take a cautious step backwards, she really wasn't going to open it right here and now was she? That thing would rip them apart! When the description was given and she opened the door keeping the beast inside, his back would press to the opposing side of the hallway with wince, burns still healing but quicker than they should have been. A hand would reach back under his clothes and shift before coming back out to guard himself should this monstrosity attack. "You are a twisted fuck... I am no positive moral compass but what you're doing is disgusting!" anger wasn't in his voice, rather shock and that same fear that clung onto him. Is this what he threatened him with? To turn him into a disgusting creature to be locked in a room for the rest of his days? As the creature was sent back into the room it would ease Voltaire a little, eyes locked on the handle to make sure it was closed "Beauty...? That is the furthest thing from it..." -c-

Dr Ku	Voltaire	"Ah, my dear spider, what see as horrific and disgusting, I see as something beautiful and nearly perfect. Such things are subject to variation from person to person, and as you have already witness, our views are vastly different from one another." Turned her darkened gaze toward him. "The only disgusting thing I see here is you, and the only thing keeping you alive is that fox." A low rumble of a chuckled reverberated from her throat. "Oh, darling, you don't have a choice. How many others do you think are here? Hm? A hundred? Two hundred?!" Her voice rose, and as it did a chilling chorus of sounds exuded from past the doors. "Try nearly three thousand in this complex alone. Now, if your mind can grasp it, imagine that such a place as this is housed in nearly every single region of this world. Supplying anyone from government officials to underground criminals with whatever they desire! They want a monster! A perfect killing machine!? I can make it! A staff of servants to their-c-

Dr Ku	Voltaire	beck and call? Easily done! Mindless slaves that will happily give their lives for whoever holds their leash? Done without so much as a sweat. A harem to fulfill any desire? Who am I to judge!? This world is full of sick fuckers who would gladly pay for one of my creations. War?! Lust?! Pride?! I cater to it all! And so long as the world is full of them, I will never die! Even if my body rots, another Ku will rise up to take my place as it has always been! As it has been, and always will be! Even if Amylia doesn't turn out like me, I can easily replace her with another copy to mold in my image to take on the title! Like my creator before me, I will only give up when someone of worth comes to steal it from me. And pitiful creatures like yourself don't even compare to the ground I walk on. So yes, I expect you to become a monster like this! To be butchered, mutilated, and sold to the highest bidder! You no longer have the choice, spider! Because you're in my world! And I will -c-

reforge you into whatever I damn will please!! So be grateful that you have that fox on your side, because once this is all over, I'll make sure both of you are inseparable." A low, warning hiss left her throat as the din of growling, screeching, banging, and crying continued to fill the air about them.-e-
