Chapter 2: Not Him
"Are you sure it's him, Dr. Rod?" A lady in a red dress and a lab gown asked. "I mean, there were lots of children in the perimeter." They were both looking at the unconscious body of Remus, tied up with chains hanging on the ceiling.
Dr. Rod reassured his 'assistant'. "I am not yet sure, Alice. But we will since he already knows about that old hag, he will ask for help through their minds. If they did, then he is the one we are finding for." He fondled Alice's waist, caressing her body. He would approach her body like his lunch. Her hands would explore his body as well, slowly removing his coat. Dr. Rod would slowly touch his lips to her lips, and as soon as their lips touch, Dr. Rod carries her and brings her to an aluminum table. He slowly unzips Alice's red dress.
Lips to lips,
Body to body.
Their passionate romance would be cut as a knock on the door would be heard. Quickly picking up some of the pieces of clothing that were removed, they would, in an instant, get back to where they were working earlier.
It was one of Rod's bodyguard.
"Sir, your wife just called." In response, Dr. Rod would nod, signaling him to continue. "He would like me to tell you that your son wants to talk to you after your work is done."
"Thank you. You may go now." His bodyguard nods in response. As his bodyguard would leave, he turned himself back to Alice, winking at her. He would dash at her, ready to bite her anytime. She kneels down, looking at him with her mesmerizing eyes. "You are one, hot stuff, Alice." Admiringly, he smirked at her.
As they were about to continue, Remus would suddenly talk in a weaker manner, "Where... am... I?" Remus slowly opens his eyes, looking up at the ceiling, realizing he had been hanged. "Please let me go... I didn't do anything wrong..."
Alice and Dr. Rod looked at each other stunned. Dr. Rod commands his assistant, "Check his brain activity." Alice would nod in reply. She would then approach the monitors, scanning his brain activity.
As Alice finishes checking, she would take a few steps back. Stammering, she would speak, "S-sir..."
Dr. Rod goes near her discombobulated, "What is it?" He asked.
"We got the wrong person." Alice insisted.
"How could you say so?"
"If it were to be him, his brain waves would duplicate, meaning there are two persons in his mind: him and another, which would be that old lady in the other room, communicating with each other. But no, his brain waves seem to be normal." She looked at him, she was scared, didn't know what to do. "What are we going to do now? We just held an innocent man captive!"
Dr. Rod chuckled as an idea popped out of his head. "Inject him some LSD. I have a plan." Alice would follow his commands like some dog, or a computer that follows any command of the user. She grabs some LSD, melts them in a spoon, then inputs it in a syringe.
"What are you..?" Without a second thought, she injects the syringe on to his veins.
She turns to Dr. Rod, still scared of what would happen next, "What now?"
Like a psycho, he would smirk, "Let our bodyguards bring him to the hospital."
Alice calls the bodyguards, telling them to bring him to a hospital. Four bodyguards would enter the room, carrying Remus like a pig.
As the two of them would be left, Dr. Rod would approach Alice, hugging him from the back, heartening her up, "Don't be scared. I will always be here for you." Alice, as expected, like a little bitch, is in Dr. Rod's hands again, manipulated.
The bodyguards would bring Remus to the nearest public hospital, as what Dr. Rod commanded them. One of them told the nurse that he was seen lying on the streets.
As they successfully brought him to a hospital bed, they just leave-- like that. He was left all alone, framed for drug abuse, after getting screened and substances were found on his body.
As he woke up, a nurse would be on his side. He asked, "Where am I? What did you do to me?" He moved, but his hands were cuffed on the bed.
"You were positive for drug test." The nurse said. Remus was confused. He wasn't even drinking alcoholic beverages, what more for drugs?
"What? All I remember was that- I was hanged on the ceiling with chains, and there were two persons standing beside me, but it looks like they don't want me to be awake, so they injected me with something."
"Sorry, so are you saying that you are framed?" The nurse asked with anger.
"Yes, and I overheard them something about communicating with a person through mind, and before I was held captive, I was talking to a teacher, that changed into an old lady, then disappeared. Then they came to capture me. As they held me paralyzed, I heard something about... Homo peculiari?" Remus recalled. The nurse was stunned, as if there was something about that last phrase,
'Homo peculiari'
"Hush." She made him shut up as she was annoyed by him being too loud. "I need to talk to you."
