Oh shit.

Well, she wakes up fast at least

The female scientist at least didn't take long to wake up, gasping for air and unfortunately getting a good mouthful of that neuro-toxin stuff. She quickly covers her mouth with her coat and starts banging on the door out, yelling helplessly for help. Unfortunately, nobody comes.

Meanwhile you decide to do a self-checkup. You're part Bioferric right? Meaning that you should have a systems diagnostics somewhere... You feel a sort of, mental switch in the back of your head and decide to flip it. Making a tiny little beeping sound, you feel the darkness quickly close in for a brief moment, before your attention is diverted towards your internal processes. The systems diagnostic is actually very helpful, as you feel each and every one of your internal systems give you a ping for either a red-light or a green-light.

Well, shit. I can't break out then. What am I going to do...

"What am I going to do now..." Hey, my thoughts exactly lady. Oh, right, there's a person there. I felt my systems refocus but this time, I could only see directly in front of me, no more 360 camera. And I watched the poor elf woman slump against the door. It seems that we're both in a predicament. It's a good thing I'm not affecting by this toxin, but I am in need of some juice to keep going... "This was my one chance. I can't believe that I got fooled into this stupid situation. Heh, freedom of scientific curiosity my ass... Isn't this supposed to be a place where a scientist can do whatever they want?"

Hey, wait a minute. That, reminds me of a song I liked on Earth. Do I have Youtu-...

Oh~

This could work. Guess I'm going to have to be an Audio Puppeteer for a moment.
[Downloading 'Smile Like You Mean It']

This is going to be, very tricky. I just need to hit her, right when she's at her lowest... "I swear, I'm never listening to any of these pretentious higher-ups ever again! If I could stick it to those asshole's I-"

Bingo. "I'm sure you'd make good use of your time~" Fuck, hearing the Radio Demon's voice emanating from an actual speaker is fucking freaky.

The way she jumped though, wide-eyed and terrified. Her innocent cobalt blue eyes darting about frantically. It was, delicious "W-Who's there!? Show yourself!"

"Oh, you're new! Allow me to offer some insight~"

"This world is run on but a simple rule...
"It's not a case of what you know, but who..."

I watched as her eyes settled on me, pupils shrinking to pinpricks as I start moving and swaying to the soft piano, reaching up to the roof of the habitat and gently prodding it open. I keep my movement slow, deliberately calculated.

"Looking at you I think perhaps, you're looking for more than table scraps!
"So imagine what a man like me could do, for, you~..."

As I 'sing' gently, I climb myself up slowly on top of my habitat, watching as she steps forward, little by little. I can almost hear her heartbeat trying to jump out of her chest as she tries to hold in her coughs. I know she's got only a little time left, and she knows that I know. "...W-What. Are you saying, you can help me or something?"

"A proposal! If, you'll hear me out~"

I then stick out a tendril, reaching towards her as if I'm holding out a little, tiny hand. I can see the struggle in her eyes as she looks about the room. I wait patiently, watching her. Eventually, she sighs and reaches forward, touching my tendril with her finger. "I... Guess I don't have, much choice do I...?"

Instantly, I latch onto her finger, sucking some of her mana into my body. I can feel my systems quickly reboot themselves as I am now effectively charging on her mana.[Mana Storage: 2% Power (Charging) 0% Reserves]

Grinning internally, I seize the opportunity to slide up her arm, climbing my way up her body as my 360 sight returns to me. I quickly perch on her shoulder and decide that I should finish my pitch~

"Splendid! I see big things coming your way, yes indeedy!
"Now onto business. Everything's better with a song, don't you agree?"

I quickly clamp her mouth shut as she stumbles back, panicking and letting out muffled cries behind my metallic embrace.

"This way young ma""m"
"We've a deal to make!
"I assure this is a good thing for both our sakes.
"I'm happy to provide, but remember your side.
"Of a bargain I know you can't refuse to take~"

I smirk internally as I start guiding her towards the door, stretching my body in tiny threads down her clothes, getting a good feel of her assets while I got to work. I can feel her body tense and squirm in my grasp, but she can't shake me off quite so easily.

"All I ask is when I boost your station,
"Remember who gave you this grand ovation~!
"If I call on you, for a favour or two,
"Don't forget it's now your obligation..."

[Casting Giant's Growth]
I can feel my mechanical heart race as I pump the elf's arms full of mana, causing them to glow and swell in size, and in power. Her fingers morph into claws, her veins bulging with raw mana. With but a thought I pull on the threads of her body, and slam her new claws into the metal door, puncturing the way through. I guide her to rip the whole door in half, allowing us to break out of our imprisonment. The entire time I can feel her muscles stop taking as much effort to guide along, seems like her shock has made her stop resisting. But now, it's time for the hook.

I slide down from her mouth wrap around her collarbone like a neckline, and run a tendril up into her hair. From there, I split the tendril and reach around her head to pull on her mouth, forcing her into a wide grin.

"So SMILE LIKE YOU MEAN IT~!"

The alarms are blaring, there are obviously armed guards filing into the hallway in front of us. I decide to take the opportunity to slip a tendril into her pussy, letting a trickle of aphrodisiac invade her system.

"Take a chance and you could seize it~!"

We crouch and start rushing the guards, while they start raising their shields to block out passage.

"I'm sure you'll do just swell, you're only down in Hell~"

We grip one of the shields in our giant claw, crushing it like a tin can and the guard along with it.

"So come along with me and guarantee it!"

With the new hole in their defensive line we slam the crushed carcass of the guard into one of his comrades and barrel past them. I quickly have us just start running and following what I believed were the exit signs. Turns out I can't read their language, but I've played enough Portal to know what an exit sign looks right.

"SMILE YOUR WAY THROUGH IT~!"

We do run into various scientists along the way, and I can feel tears streaming from the elf's eyes as I have us slaughter them without a second thought as we pass right on by, leaving a wake of carnage behind us. Although at this point, she's not even attempting to resist my control.

"Grit your teeth and get right to it~!"

We quickly find the exit, our chance to escape and I notice that just behind us is a familiar face. The sneering scowl of Carlos appears just at the end of the hall and I decide to let the terrified doctor have a brief moment of autonomy. We stop at the door and I have us turn around, showing her exactly what his superior truly thought of her.

"Forget the rigmarole and you can have it all~"

I could feel her body twitch and shake. First it was hope, but as the sneering scowling superior scrunched his nose at us while he was marching towards us, it slowly morphed into fear and sadness.

"And make it that much better, when I see you fall~"

"Monster."

He said it so plainly, so clearly that it jolted her body, she stood in shock as he kept going for the frontal ****. Thankfully, I could feel his mana pull on me from elsewhere and knew he was using invisibility to try to backstab us. Figured he'd be a Rouge. Just before he could get the jump on us though, I could feel the Doctor scream out in rage as she whirls around, grabbing him by his invisible head and shaking him out of his cloaking. She just glares at him through teary eyes and snarls in a low, broken voice. "You, did this..."

I mean, I'm the one who did this, but if vengeance is what motivates her by all means, do go on.

She then tosses Carl all the way back down the end of the hall and then shoulder-checks the door, busting right on through as we then find ourselves in some clearly ancient ruins, surrounded by a dense forest. I gently motion her forward and we go sprinting off into the forest, letting her use her knowledge of the surrounding terrain to flee to safety. I decide to end my speaking for the next while by jumping ahead to the end of the song.

"So, it's a deal then~?"


Grumbling, a limping shadowy figure walks into a dark, secluded room. Inside the room is a clear, crystal ball resting on top of an elaborate, ornate cloth. Made of the most vibrant royal purple available and the frills on the edges made of pure gold fibers. With a wave of the hand, the crystal ball glows with an eerie blue, and a deep voice echoes out of it.

"Report."

The figure gritted his teeth and slammed his hands onto the table, and Carlos Carline leaned towards the crystal ball, seething his dire reply.

"Winter Contingency"

What's next?
