*mayday* *mayday* *mayday*

For the first time in many years he woke up after a peaceful sleep.

He jumped out of bed, felling like a new person.

"Doctor Flugslys, present yourself in my office." - said a hoarce and deep but calm voice.

Strange, it's the first time He calls him so politely, usually He screams with an inhuman voice that resounded in all the hallways or teleports him... by pieces.

'Something may be wrong. Or we just have a new client..' - thought the doctor, while heading quickly to his boss's office.
Reaching the two large doors, he sighed heavily and opened one.

"Sir, you called me?"

"..Yes" - said the demon appearing from behind the door, closing it while being
carried by the shadows to His dark red table.

"For ... unknown reasons ,the Organization lagged behind with the production." - continued the demon as His shadow grew steadily.

'Unknown reasons?' - thought Flug swallowing . He could swear that there was not a single problem last time he checked.

"I'm waiting for the problem to be solved by the end of the day, Doctor." - said Black Hat finally sitting in His chair.

"Y-yes sir.." - whispered the doctor being too afraid to look Him in the eye.

The atmosphere was turning bleak.

A big pressure was constantly increasing in his chest.

The shadows around grew , as if trying to swallow him.

The pressure was turning in a strange sickness.

He rose his head, looking at his boss, whose glance was melting his soul.

weakness


Flug fell on his knees ,his breathing turning heavy.

An electrifying felling flashed through the doctor's weak body.

"Run"

The doors slammed behind the fleeing doctor.


---

Nearly 6 hours have passed.

After finally finishing all the paperwork, the demon got up from His chair.

'It's time to check around.'

He was calmly walking through the hallways.
5.0.5. was cleaning the windows.

'Why is this thing still alive...' - stopped the demon, His glance still remaining on that blue creature.

'He had such a dumb smile while carrying about this failed experiment..'

Suddenly He realized what He just thought about, and nearly slapped himself.

'What the fuck am I thinking about--'

"BonBon!!!" - jumped Demencia from the ceiling trying to hug the love of her life.

"Get away from me you stupid slave!!"

"Gimme a kiss!!"

"DON'T YOU DARE!!"

-

After 20 minutes of fighting that crazy lizard ,He reached the laboratory.

He stopped in front of the door. Arranged His clothes , fixed His hat, and just then entered the lab.

"How... how is the work going, Doctor Flug? "

'Did I just ..... why did my voice ... crack??'

"V-very well s-sir!"- sttumered the doctor ,jumping from his seat.
"I finished the last divices and now I'm updating the system.."

"Hmm... Let me see. " - said the demon walking towards the table.
Flug sat back on the chair and continued to work as BH was staring ... firstly at his work ... then at him.

He surely changed.

He looks better.

He doesn't scream or hyperventilate just because He's sitting here.

He forgot everything.

Everything is back to normal.

"S-sir? I think ... something is wrong.."

"What did you do, Flug?" - growled BH getting out of the trance.

"N-nothing! I j-just don't remember building this machines..." - said Flug with a confused look under his bag.

"I remember each thing I did.. But these ones--"

"You're loosing your mind, doctor. Can't even remember the mediocre work you do." - interrupted the demon, raising His hoarce voice.

"S-sir I swear! I cannot remember a single detail--"

"Stop humiliating yourself in front of me, and get back to work!" - screamed BH slamming his head by the table.

The doctor raised his head slowly, as he heard footsteps getting out the lab. A little amount of blood dripped down on the blueprints .

"R-right away, boss.." - whispered he ,whipping his nose.

---

He was walking through the hallways. Stepping hard on the cold floor.
Melting the expensive bloody - red carpet.

'Why?! How?! What is happening to me? What is this strange feeling??!?'

He entered His office slamming the door behind.
Threw himself on His chair and sighed.
It was so silent there.

Only hundred of thoughts were screaming in His head.
