P1 the mall
Caustic's P.O.V.
STUPID ISLE!
STUPID STUPID!
I kicked the aisle.
WHY DOES IT NOT HAVE TEST TUBES! IT CLEARLY SAYS "TEST TUBES AND SCIENCE EQUIPMENT!"
"Sir," said a voice.
I turned around.
"Um..." The person said.
"What do you want?" Caustic said back.
"Uh, um, I'm lost," the person said.
"I don't worry myself with the intentions of insects,"
"Uh, ok?"
"Who are you."
"Natalie, Natalie Paquette. But my mom and dad died."
I was going to ask her where her parents are. Good thing I didn't
"What do you want?"
"Where are the test tubes?"
Idiot. Wait. That's me.
"I don't know."
"I don't concern myself with the intentions of insects," Natalie responded.
I scanned the area. No one.
I pulled out a RE-45 and pointed at her, loading the magazine.
Natalie blinked.
"RUN," I yelled.
Natalie placed down 2 pads.
I studied them with interest.
Rods shot out and a wall of electricity formed.
"Can't get me."
According to calculations, this should break them...
I shot the bottoms and they shuddered and broke.
"N..n.. Not cool!" Natalie whimpered.
I pointed at her. And pulled the Trigger.
*Poing*
"Caustic?"
Was that Gibraltar?
"Makao."
I looked up, seeing Gibraltar.
"What are you doing."
"YOU JUST SHOT AT A LEGEND!"
"Pfffft. This girl. A lengend?" I laughed.
I looked at them.
They weren't laughing. I expected them to laugh and say it was a stick.
No. This can't be true. It makes sense, how pretty.... This must be a trick.
I expected Makao to laugh.
"This is Wattson, Natalie Paquette, Natalie, this is Caustic, Alexander Nox."
Wattson gave a cute smile and waved.
After Makao left I thought maybe I could practice flirting.
"Nice Trap."
"Thank you."
"I think I'm trapped in love."
Wattson took a minute to register my words.
"I know. I was practicing flirting." I murmured.
Wattson laughed.
"I am seriously thinking about shooting you." She chuckled in a cute way.
I took out an EVA-8 Auto.
"THAT'S NOT LEGAL!" Wattson shouted.
"What's going on there?" The shopkeeper said.
I laughed.
2nd Amendment. Bear arms. Not legal? Will it's a firearm. So it's legal.
Wattson chuckled.
"Oh you ***************."
I flinched.
Wattson took out a Charge Rifle
"It's legal" She laughed.
"OK LET'S GO!" Makao said hastily. "I got your lovebird's test tubes now let's go!"
"MAKAO!!!"
Gibraltar laughed.
"Where did you get the test tubes?" I asked in a growl.
"I took em' all."
That ********.
Wattson laughed.
She is hot.
I sighed. Valentine's day is tomorrow. Maybe I could buy a gift for my love, not that she would understand. But seriously.
*sigh*
I walked with them and left the mall.
"Head over heals in love? Love at first sight?" Makao taunted.
"YOU LITTLE..." I said.
Gibraltar laughed and slet downhill, using his shield as a sled.
"GET BACK HERE!!!"
"HAHA! CAN'T GET ME!" Gibraltar laughed.
I sighed.
Friends forever. Every. Single. Legend.
PART 2 THE BANK
Wattson's P.O.V.
What a nice day with Caustic yesterday.
I sighed.
What a nice day
I headed to the bank to retrieve some gold bars (yes they have that) from my vault to make some more electric wire. I found Caustic there!
"Alex?" I said.
Caustic flinched and turned around. He was in a sweater and he looked nice.
"Uh... hi."
I smirked
It was weird seeing him scared.
"What are you doing here?" I asked. "Nice Sweater by the way too. A very nice touch."
"Um. Thank you. Uh... what are you doing here?"
Seriously? Trying to avoid the question?
"I'm getting gold."
Caustic raised an eyebrow.
I minute
I blushed
"For wiring my traps."
He sighed.
"You need to wire your brains down to your head and think about how you speak," Caustic said. "I'm here to get money for my test tubes."
"Didn't we get them yesterday?"
SUUUUUUUUUUSPICIOUS!
He flinched again.
"I um, need more."
"Hey, take your time." I smiled.
Flirting time.
"and I hope you get trapped in my trap again." I said.
Caustic side.
I chuckled.
"Common, it's not like a robber is going to rob this bank right?" I laughed.
Come on, how bad could it be and what were the chances...
*BANG BANG BANG*
Someone had a gun outside.
Hell broke loose.
"That can't be good." I murmured, stepping behind Caustic.
He smirked.
"I wish Makao was here."
Caustic's smirk disappeared.
"To protect us, not because I like him."
Caustic sighed, and when I said us, his eyes seemed to light up.
A masked man with a ski mask came in with a gun, an R-99 to be specific.
"Definitely not good." I murmured
Caustic laughed.
"MONEY OUT!" A masked man said. He was flanked by two other men.
I whimpered.
The masked man starts confiscating the money. I hit the silent alarm.
One of the other men looked at me.
Oh ****
They shot a bullet at me, and time seemed to slow down. All the things happened at once. The bullet entered Caustic's body as he blocked the bullet. The horrible cracking of a bone fracture, and Caustic falling to the floor.
The men looked shocked.
"You're accused of murder and class 3 harming." I shouted. "NO ONE HURTS CAUSTIC!!"
Caustic blushed.
I pulled out a Mozambique for maximum humiliation and shot them each once.
I looked at the settings.
Oops.
Lethal was on.
I didn't care.
I picked up Caustic.
"No no no no no."
The bullet was in his rib. I heard the police coming.
I yelled into my coms.
"CHE! THE BANK!"
In minutes, Ajay Che, the Lifeline herself, was over and started healing Caustic. I stared at him the whole time. Each second his chest stopped, I squeezed his hand and prepared for the worst. Worrying he wouldn't make it. After an hour, he managed to fully recover. What a hero.
CAUSTIC'S P.O.V
I groaned softly. After the incident, I had bandages on me. They didn't allow me out of the arena. I need to get those chocolates and Nessie. Plan A, the vent. I climbed into the vent and crawled outside.
**** my weight I thought as a squeeze through the vent.
Dead end.
Shoot
I suddenly crashed down and I was in the infirmary.
What are the chanced of that?
Plan B, go to my room, bust the doors open like a madman.
I grabbed a lock pick and went to the exit. I picked the door and silenced the alarms. I tiptoed out. Something told me that something was wrong. I sliped and fell onto the floor, which was 3 feet down.
I fell out onto my back and a sharp pain raised up my back. I ignored the pain. The pain was bad. But not getting Nessie was unacceptable. I ran to the store at midnight. They were open 24/7. I went in and bought a Nessie. The cashier took one look at my bandages and then looked away. I bought some chocolates for Wattson too. I went back to the Cashier.
I checked my pockets, expecting money, but there was none. I forgot my money.
****
The cashier flinched. I felt something in my pocket. My legend card. After winning a game, I got a legend card, granting me basically infinite money.
I slapped the card down.
The cashier's eyes widened and she smiled.
"Call me," she said, slipping a piece of paper to me.
I looked at her.
Seriously? My heart belongs to Wattson
I nodded and paid for the chocolates and the Nessie. I snuck back into the infirmary and went to my lab. I burned the paper and sighed, placing the Nessie under my bed and Chocolates in the fridge.
The next day I woke up I found myself cuddling the Nessie plush.
Seriously me?
I sighed and brushed my teeth. I made sure my vest was on. It was a formal day, so I had an excuse. I went outside, hiding the chocolates and Nessie plush in my work bag. I spotted Wattson and called her into a room. I told her I needed to show her something.
Wattson's eyes seemed to glow in hope and she looked really excited. I took out the Nessie and the chocolates.
"Happy Valentines Day." I said, giving the best smile I could.
Wattson looked so happy she could explode. She hugged me.
Yup.
Me.
Life goals accomplished.
"THANK YOU SO MUCH!" She said, laughing and hugged me harder. I sighed and thought, maybe she would be with me. Maybe we could be together.
"Remind me of..." Wattson said.
I looked at her curiously.
"Nevermind," Wattson said.
"Is something wrong?"
"Yeah. My dad. He died. I don't know why."
I put an arm around her.
She sighed.
"I had to kill my boss. For science."
She looked at me.
I hugged her.
"Sometimes science is important, but your lives are more important."
She nodded
I hugged her.
"Tell me about it."
"He worked for the syndicate."
*sigh*
"He taught me electricity." Wattson continued.
"But I think the Syndicate killed him. He made the containment ring. Actually, I made it."
My jaw unhinged.
WATTSON MADE THE CONTAINMENT RING?!!?!?!?!?
"You. What?!" I yelled.
"I did." Wattson sighed.
"So the syndicate might of killed him."
Wattson nodded.
"I'll kill em'"
"No! Of course not." Wattson replied laughing.
I sighed and hugged her.
"Stay safe."
Wattson sighed.
"We must think about sharing our works," I said, trying to cheer up the mood.
"Thank you for this plush. I used to have one. My dad gave me it." Wattson said.
"Your Welcome."
" You know, you look like my dad, and you are like him too."
I smiled.
"Well you can date me but not your dad so that is one."
Wattson blushed and sighed.
"And I'm a serial killer and your dad is not."
Wattson sighed.
"I guess we are all serial killers," Wattson said. "Even my dad."
"Trying to sort out the different?" I said.
Wattson sighed and nodded.
We talked hour after hour about science and life until we were so tired. I got onto the bed and Wattson snuggled onto my chest, and we cuddled as we went to sleep.
"Can we do this?" I whispered.
"Yes," She responded.
"Legend and legend, and also we are not dating," I said.
"We soon will," Wattson murmured.
I sighed.
"Team science for the win," Wattson whispered.
"Team science for the win," I replied.
Wattson hugged me again, and we fell asleep in each other's arms.
What a beautiful woman. I thought.
And I fell asleep, and that was the best day of my life.
