Chapter 10: Ch 7 Truth and Lies

Chapter Text

🌕

She gasped for air as she woke up, painful waves would rush to her head but the pain was something that she got used to in her life and no one could get rid of the feeling in her memory. 

"How long have I been here for?" Em asked as she opened her eyes and noticed a blond man walking around.

"Around a month", Frankenstein calmly said, 

'Shit ' Em thought as she abruptly sat up, slowly she uncovered herself and lifted her shirt up and noticed that she was all wrapped up, 'almost like a mommy', she peeked under the bandages to only see the nasty scars left in her body, 'another to the collection'. One look to her wrist she felt everything crumble, she began to search everywhere in the bed, under it, and around it. "where, where is it?", Em asked herself but stopped when Frankenstein looked at her, she shivered in response as she then figured who the man was. The blue eyes of the man and the gold-like hair were unmistakable features.

"What are you searching for?", Frankenstein asked

She lowered her head to the man, "where is the bracelet that I had on my wrist?" Em didn't look up at the man, she was powerless before, and now even more as she could be considered as human due to the poison that she could still feel in her system.

"Ah, here I had to take it off so I could do the proper procedures", Frankenstein gave back her bracelet and as soon as she grabbed it she searched the insides to find nothing in it. Em gulped at the thought that she might have lost it when she was fighting, but her thoughts were interrupted as she looked up to Frankenstein who showed what she was looking for, 

'My info'.

"Are you searching for these?", Frankenstein waved the USB in front of her

"Give them back, they don't belong to you", Em stood up from the bed going straight for the USB in Frankenstein hands, but at the first step she felt her balance off, and as everything was spinning around her. Frankenstein had to grab her in the end.

'It will be hard to readjust again'          

Frankenstein sat Em down to her bed, ' I shouldn't have done that ', Frankenstein thought as he went back to his research, "you should rest more before doing reckless actions", 

Em stared at him, "But you were the one who caused them", But still she layed back down and rested her mind of the thoughts that were rushing in and out just as a storm.

'If this is Frankenstein that means that the Noblesse is here, with him the RK, and within the RK M-21, this will be a complete chaos' 

🌕

"How long are you going to stay here?", M-21 asked, leaning against the wall with his arms crossed.

"As long as I'm allowed to stay here, pup", Muzaka said as he sat on the couch, all relaxed but their phones began to buzz.

....Group Chat....

Frankenstein : Miss Seira, can you start cooking  without me, I'll be late again

Seira : Yes sir

Muzaka : Why is that?

M-21 : Just let him be

Frankenstein : I just have things to take care in the lab, Nothing of your interest Muzaka

Muzaka : Oh, but I do have an interest in the person who saved me and she's in the lab

Frankenstein : For your information she's still asleep

Tao : Boss I have all the papers that you need to sign

Frankenstein : I still can't believe how you manage to mistreat the school that I made for my Master!!

Tao : That is why I'm giving it back to the rightful owner?

Takeo : Tao just shush

Takeo : Don't make things worse

M-21 : Takeo just leave him, what's done it's done

M-21 : It's time to fix what was done

Frankenstein : Yes you two were also the cause of this since I left Tao in charge and you two were supposed to help him out 

Frankenstein : Meaning that I would be needing the money from you three, meaning that there would be no paychecks until everything is fixed

Tao : Nooooooooo!!!

Takeo : As expected

M-21 : Meh

Regis : Tao, what were you expecting really?

Frankenstein : Now, now, get to cook everyone, help Miss Seira out

Frankenstein : 😈 

Rai : Frankenstein

Frankenstein : Yes Master

....End of the Chat....

Everyone shivered when they saw Frankenstein send the emoji, (1 he would never send one only when he wanted to show how he was feeling, (2 everyone would be in trouble if one didn't obey his orders. Yes he was one scary man indeed.

"Would you at least help clean up", M-21 lastly told Muzaka before rushing to the kitchen to help Miss Seira out.

"I will, I'm not ready to die by his hands"

  🌕

"I can tell that you are not asleep at all", Frankenstein said as he put his phone back in his pocket. 

Em uncovered her head as she sat up, "That sir, would be 'cause everything in here is too loud to even close one's eyes", Em motioned her hands to everything that was around her, Frankenstein only shoot an eyebrow up, 

"I made this lab, and there is no sound coming from anywhere-"

 

"Then the poison has finally made me go Mad", Em let herself fall back, she had the need to run out of the lab and get fresh air even if it meant seeing M-21 again.

Frankenstein hummed as she had mentioned something about the poison, meaning that it was the moment to ask about it, but before he could ask Em had called him with his full name, something he wasn't expecting at all. "There is something in your mind, what do you want to know, Victor Frankenstein?" Em asked but then she had to turn her head to the side to find the man chuckling as he then began to actually laugh, making her ears ring in the process.

"Ah, it's been a long time since someone had called me by my real full name, where did you hear it from?" 

Frankenstein sat right in front of her but this time it was Em's turn to chuckle, "It seems that Tao wasn't able to open the USB up, huh?"

"That is why you are still here and now that you are awake you’ll be the one to open the USB up, Em", Frankenstein was now closer to Em and Em's eyes widen when she heard her name being said, so she got closer to him just leaving and inch in between them.

"Ah but you have seen what the other USB contained, didn't you?"

"I won't lie, but we did. Now do tell"

Em didn't even dare to blink, "Helsing, they know of every being alive or dead, none-human or human related. What did you expect?" Frankenstein noticed too much pain, too much venom in Em's words, he now regretted the question that he asked but he at least needed to know.

"Then tell me what the poison does?" Frankenstein tried to change the question but it was still connected to the said group, though he had seen Em relaxed a bit as she soon backed away from him and let herself fall back. So he stood up and went to the drawer. 

"It's unique in its way since it was created by that man. It disables the power that one holds, it wouldn't last long but", Em stayed silent, and Frankenstein stopped what he was doing.  

"But what?"

"This time they succeeded, they sealed my power completely making me just human, though it was meant to kill me. Though do you know what this poison does to beings that are not human related?", Em asked, sitting back up to look at Frankenstein.

"Do they become human?" 

Em shook her head, "The poison makes them go Mad and they lose themselves in the process"

"Was that the reason that you saved Muzaka?", Frankenstein took some clothes out to see Em smile but there was pain in that smile that couldn't be covered, ' what horrors did you go through?'   

"Yes that, and also because this is my second time they consider myself dead in the same way though the poison was less deadly, and this clothes?" 

Frankenstein handed her some clothes that were pretty similar to the ones that she had on, when she was a total mess. "Are for you or are you planning to not attend dinner today?"

Em thought about it, but shook her head, "Nah, I think I have already missed enough already. Now about the USB?"

Frankenstein chuckles, "We'll talk about it after dinner, that is when you'll have them, alright?"

"Yes sir"

"Now I'll be in the next room so you could change", Em hummed in response as he left.

Group Chat        

Tao : Boss everyone is home

Takeo : The dinner is ready

Frankenstein : We'll be heading up soon

M-21 : By we, do you mean

Muzaka : She’s awake
