《The Chaos Within》Blood Trails
Advertisement
Two security guards intercepted Leo's path. He ran across the wall and held onto the nearest one's shoulder to support himself until he landed and kept running with everything he's got upstairs, trying to reach floor 58. The two security members chased after him on the stairs until they got exhausted but surprisingly, Leonardo wasn't, he felt like this was some sort of a morning jog to him. Looks like the Serum didn't just enhance his senses but also boosted his stamina, strength, and agility.
After so much effort he managed to reach floor 58, panting and breathing heavily. Nyxx's guards were waiting for him down the hall, Leo pulled his note and placed its top between his teeth.
The note said, "Doctor Marcus sent me, I must meet Miss.Nyxx." The guards gave no damn and rushed towards him. Leo ran towards them and jumped above them, rolling in the air, he landed on his toes before running off towards Nyxx's office but two other guards blocked his path. The other four came at him from behind. They all jumped at him at the same time, Leo jumped above them, the jump was higher than that of a human, he landed on one of them and used his back as a support to jump off towards Nyxx's office door, breaking through it. Upon breaking through the door he rolled on the ground and settled on all fours like an animal.
"What in the bloody hell is going on here?" Nyxx shouted in anger, standing up from her seat.
Leo looked at her while holding the sheet with his teeth, the guards jumped at him and restrained him, unfortunately, Leo wasn't strong enough to overpower them all.
Nyxx looked at the sheet, it didn't take her long to figure out that Leo was mute.

"Huh, let him go, he'll obviously write down whatever business he has here, out all of you, now!"
Leo didn't wait and started writing down Marcus's message, "He's requesting the serum for his daughter, he said she has but a few days and her condition is critical!"
"How should I know Marcus was the one who sent you and not the Penter Corporation? Why is he even sure the serum will work flawlessly?"
"Dr. Marcus injected me with the serum, it does work, now please I have no time to waste here!"
"Can you prove it?"
Leo didn't know what to write to convince her.
"See? No proof. Means no serum, now please leave my office before I call the secur–". Nyxx was interrupted by Leo removing his eyepatch and revealing his beast eye to her, that was his only proof to the young billionaire.
She remained silent for a moment while staring into Leo's eye.
"Wow. That's not a lens, is i-Ok it's not. Let's get you the serum, follow me!" She gestured for him to follow her to the labs, one their way she kept staring at his right eye but Leo kept his hand on it, hiding it from sights. Nyxx requested Marcus's assistant in the labs and demanded a dose of the serum.
The assistant handed them the last dose of the serum. Nyxx took the serum and handed it to Leo.
"How come this is the last dose? As far as I remember we have four of them" Nyxx seemed so displeased about it.
"I don't know, ma'am. The four doses we had are all gone, this is a new dose, however, we've just finished it. Maybe the development branch took it since you shut down the project?"
"That's impossible, I haven't even signed the papers yet"

Before leaving, he noticed a strange necklace around Nyxx's neck, he wrote something on his note and showed it to Nyxx, "May I ask what your full name is?!"
"Usually I don't answer such questions but sure, I kinda like your guts. It's Nyxx Scarlett MacMillan. What about you, young man?"
Leo kept staring at her necklace for a second and tried to write his name but they both were interrupted by Nyxx's secretary.
"Miss Nyxx, it's time for your meeting." said her assistant.
"We'll continue some other time, excuse me."
Leo folded the sheet in his pocket and went down to Kira.
"Oh God, I was so worried, what in the hell were you thinking?!" Kira was sick worried.
"Sorry, I've got the serum though!"
She sighed, "Doesn't matter, let's go back home, for now. We'll figure out how to give Sarah this serum tomorrow".
Leo nodded and went back home with Kira.
Upon their arrival, her Dad ran to her
"KIRAAAAAAA!" Smith ran to her, trying to wrap his arms around Kira while sliding on the floor on his knees in a funny way like a football player celebrating a goal score.
"Hi, dad!" She walked upstairs right away, not giving her dad a chance to hug her.
Again, he froze in his spot like a statue. He sat by a corner with his arms around his knees, depressed. "My daughter is so mean, I wanna die now!"
"How humiliating!" his wife teased.
"I hate you!"
Later in the evening, the family came down for dinner, after that they decided to watch some TV.
On the news channel, there was a news about 4 murder cases in an alley, the 4 victims were part of a biker gang. Each of them had a stab to the back of the neck and a stab to the heart.
"Seems like we have a new serial killer in New York, let's hope the NYPD will catch whoever did this before the number of victims rises." said the news reporter on TV.
