RPG:
As Fernando and Hondo walk away from the crowd of the auditorium, General Jastrey talks to the crowd, “Now you see, Wessens are human who were turned into what they were by those with powers of metamorphosis. We are looking for a cure, but it will take a while to find it. But I better not hear that a Wessen was medical treatment because of them being a Wessen. And I better not hear about anyone holding a Wessen as a slave for that would be holding a human as a slave, and that is illegal. You all have work to do, get it done.”
General Jastrey steps away and towards Fernando and Hondo. They were with Maribelle and Teri.
“You heard General Jastrey, this girl is a free person. She is no longer your toy or your slave. You cannot order her around anymore. You are to respect her as you would yourself. Get where I am coming from?” Fernando tells Maribelle.
Maribelle sees General Jastrey approaching them before she bows her head and nods.
“Good to see her agree.” General Jastrey says as she steps up to them. She then asks, “Now what?”
“I need access to a lab and some equipment. Before I give a cure to anyone, there are some Wessens to cure first.” Fernando tells her. He then asks, “How many Wessens are there in the ward? Could you send a couple of your men and get me a list of all the Wessens depending on the severity of their injuries? Just slip the note under the door as I work alone in the lab. Let’s go.”
“I think there is a free lab by the Wessen ward that is no longer being used. It’s this way.” General Jastrey tells her.
The group follows General Jastrey to the lab by the Wessen ward, stopping by the door. Fernando opens the door and looks inside. Most of the equipment was stripped from the room but there was enough there for him to work with.
“This will do.” Fernando says to General Jastrey, adding, “Hondo, I need you inside.”
“Alright Jefe.” Hondo says before walking in. First thing he does is test the plumbing, finding the water to be fresh and palatable. Shutting off the water, he goes about the room and gathers the basics that were around onto a work table: a test tube rack, a few loosely found test tubes, petri dishes, a microscope and a Bunsen burner.
Fernando tells General Jastrey, “I do not to be disturbed while I am in here. I’ll be done in a while – however long that while takes.”
“I understand.” General Jastrey says to him, before turning to Maribelle and Teri and then her men, “You two come with me to my office. Men, guard the door, no one goes in without their permission.”
Fernando nods before closing the door behind him. He turns the locking mechanism on the door but it seems not to work. After a while he walks to Hondo and looks over the supplies.
“Got your lock picking set?” Fernando asks.
“Just the basics.” Hondo answers.
“Should be enough, you take those lockers and cabinets and I will take these here.” Fernando replies.
“Anythin’ particular you lookin’ for?” Hondo asks as he picks the lock from the first cabinet he gets too.
“Pestle and mortar, vaccination gun, hypodermic needles, whatever is around.” Fernando answers, opening the locker he picks the lock on.
“I usually do not ask but what is your plan?” Hondo asks as he opens a second cabinet.
“I’m going to crush 6 Bio Pills to powder and put them into solution, and inject the Wessens with it. It won’t be a full dose but it will heal most of the serious injuries if given time to rest and heal. I’ll give that Wessen with the burns a triple dose. Whatever is left, I’ll inject into Jastrey.” Fernando explains as he looks into a cabinet he opens.
“I see. 6 would be enough? There’s about 200 Wessens from what I’ve seen.” Hondo points out as he opens a locker.
“I’ll do 8 or 10 then.” Fernando says as he opens another cabinet.
They barely find what they needed: a pestle and mortar, vaccination gun and a few unused syringes left in an open box. The items are placed on work table where Fernando begins his work as Hondo checks and cleans the various items. He measures 50ml of water from the faucet, pouring it into the mortar bowl. He throws in a couple of Bio Pills into the bowl before crushing them. He mixes them into a slurry that looks like rainbow colored toxic waste.
Some 10 minutes into their work, a note get slide from under the door. Hondo gets it and reads it before handing it to Fernando. It is the list of Wessens in the ward and their various injuries. Fernando nods as he finishes off his work. After capping them, he puts two syringes to the side.
“That is for Teri and General Jastrey.” Fernando says to Hondo.
“Why Teri?” Hondo asks.
“I have a feeling she needs it. I’m pretty sure Maribelle pimped her wooly tail out for money and services, so though it won’t restore her to a virgin, it will restore her to a better shape than she is now and if she is carrying any diseases, it will cure her of them.” Fernando points out. He finishes his work, putting one of the test tubes into the vaccine gun. He hands the two syringes to Hondo and loads one of the several test tubes into the vaccination gun before cleaning up the area, leaving no trace of their work they did in there. Hondo takes a bottle of alcohol he finds and shown to Fernando with him.
They step out of the room and look at General Jastrey.
“Let’s go.” Fernando says as he goes into the Wessen Ward with the vaccine gun in his hand. The first Wessen he visits is the one he met before, the one with the severe burns and other injuries asking for his master. “Sorry I have not found your master, but I’m here for you. Hondo, give him a splash on his arm by the meat of his shoulder.”
Hondo does as Fernando requested, before Fernando puts the vaccine gun to the splashed area and pumps him with a triple injection, pretending that the first two did not go through.
“There. You should be getting better in a day or two.” Fernando tells him. He then turns to Hondo, “Next one.”
Together they go through the worst of cases first, with Hondo splashing them with the alcohol in areas where there was skin to inject the solution into, and Fernando doing the injection. It takes them almost an hour to inject everyone. Fernando still had 3 unused test tubes and 1/2 a tube in the gun, plus the 10 or so syringes.
Out in the hallway, Fernando looks at Teri and tells her, “You’re next. Show me your shoulder. Hondo, splash her and inject her.”
As soon as Teri bared her shoulder, Hondo quickly splashed her injected her with the syringe. Maribelle decides to complain.
“Why you doing that to her!” Maribelle complains.
“Because you used her as a sex toy.” Fernando tells her as he takes the empty syringe from Hondo, “Just in case she has something that could get her sick or infected, this will take care of that for her.”
Maribelle scowls at him.
“General Jastrey, as for our deal, you’re next.” Fernando tells her. She nods back at him and bares her shoulder to them. Hondo splashes her with the alcohol and injects her with the remaining syringe. Fernando takes the empty syringe and puts it into the box he has.
“Let’s head back to camp. We got a lot to do before we go.” Fernando tells them.
“You sure you do not want to stay? I can make it worth your while here.” General Jastery says as she finishes buttoning up her shirt.
“We will be back if we find that cure. But we got a long trip to do.” Fernando tells her. He then pulls out some gold coins, “Get these Wessens some respectable clothes to wear, most of them should be leaving soon when they get better. As for you, eat a lot sugary snacks for the next few days.”
General Jastrey nods at him before he and Hondo begins to walk away.
In a couple of minutes they were outside by Jastrey’s car. Though Fernando would have wanted to walk ‘home’, General Jastrey takes them in her car to their camp. For General Jastrey, she needed to talk to those inside the large Kharkovchanka All-Terrain vehicle near their camp.
