"What's wrong?" Harry asked as he looked at Leo, who had just paused for some reason. There was a frown on his face and it seemed to have twisted a bit in disgust.
"N-No nothing.." Leo shook his head. He himself didn't know what this weird feeling was all about. He just felt it for some reason.
[What kind of place is this? I just feel disgusted being here-nya.] Aiden's words made Leo not know how to react. It was either a coincidence or the two of them actually had a much better chemistry than he initially thought.
"Where are the switches to the light?" Harry muttered as he began to look for the switches. It seemed that the room didn't have automated lighting or needed some kind of command they didn't know. In the end, there were only left to switch it manually.
"Found it!"
"Click!"
The entire place was immediately lit up. And, the two of them could see everything covered in white pieces of cloth.
"Are we in the right place?" Harry looked at Leo feeling a bit odd.
"Don't you guys keep things like cleaning devices in the store room?" Leo asked with a frown. He used to do it back on earth. He had no idea about other people.
"Well, I just use a piece of cloth so I have no idea." Harry forced a smile on his face as he pointed a the bucked behind and shrugged.
"Anyway, let's see if there is anything in the cupboards." Leo shook his head and took a step ahead going towards the cabinets. But, the moment he opened it, his eyes twitched.
This thing was full of strange lab equipment. And, some even looked a bit menacing. It was as if it was use to operate on people.
"What is this thing?" Harry's voice entered Leo's ear, and he turned around to see him lifting the white piece of cloth on the table.
Leo walked up to him, and when he saw what was on the table, a frown immediately appeared on his face.
The table actually was full of strange jars. And, these jars were filled with some kind of yellowish liquid. But this wasn't what made them feel cold and creeped out. It was the content of the jar. There was something strange floating in the jar. And, they couldn't make it out what it actually was. But, it looked disgusting.
'Can you scan it, Arthur?'
[Scanning...]
[Organic Matter Detected..]
[No further information is available...]
Leo's frown deepened a bit further on hearing that.
[I don't know what it is, but it definitely looks creepy-nya.] Aiden seemed disgusted, and it was no less than Leo.
"Check these out!" Harry said as he tapped on Leo's shoulder, and he turned around to see that the guy had already uncovered the rest of the stuff.
There were a few more similar jars around, and aside from that, there was a patient bed and some medical instruments around.
"Was this some kind of hospital?" Leo muttered with a frown.
"I have never heard about it." Harry shook his head as he looked at the jars closely. He seemed to be really curious about it.
[I have never heard about anything like that as well. But at the peak of war, this place had been used for all kinds of stuff, so I am not sure-nya] Aiden said, a bit unsure about it.
"Do you think that the Librarian is some kind of psychopath butchering people here?" Harry asked with a smile as he picked up a jar in his hand. "Look at this thing. It even looks like an eye."
Leo's face immediately turned pale. To be honest, this was his second thought as well. The librarian was very weird after all. Not to mention, he looked like serial killer too.
"That was a jokeā¦.." Harry's smile faded and he began to sweat when he saw Leo getting nervous. It was only now that he realized that his joke had some possibility of being the truth actually.
"I think we should leave." Leo suggested, and Harry immediately nodded. "Let me just keep this thing."
He immediately went to keep the jar at the place where he had picked it up from.
But, as he was about to keep it, he suddenly noticed a wriggle in the eye-like object floating in the jar. And, the next instant the eye opened up revealing a ghastly pupil which stared right into Harry's eyes.
"Holy Sh*t!" A terrified shout came from his mouth, and the jar immediately fell out of his hands, and shattered onto the ground.
"Shatter!
Leo immediately turned around on hearing the noise, and saw Harry on the ground.
"T-This thing moved!!" Harry looked at Leo with wide eyes as he pointed at the broken jar. He was clearly shaken and terrified.
Leo was about to walk towards him when his face suddenly turned grim. He noticed that the strange eye-like object on the floor covered in fluid was wriggling strangely. And, it immediately made him feel an immense sense of danger for some reason.
It was as if something within him was screaming, that the thing was dangerous. It was something which should be eradicated from existence. But, he controlled those strange emotion, and just screamed to warn the Harry, who was closer to that thing.
"Harry!!"
Leo's shout immediately made Harry aware of the danger, and he noticed a strange thing flying straight towards his face from the corner of his eyes. There was no time to move.
A cyan color energy shot out of Harry's body, as he swiped his fingers towards the incoming object.
"Swish!"
With a whistling noise, the eye was immediately sliced into three pieces.
Harry finally felt relieved.
But he was celebrating too early. His eyes immediately widened when he noticed that the three sliced pieces immediately joined back together as if they had never been sliced, and continued to fly towards him.
"Keep that thing away from you!!!"
Hearing Leo's shout, Harry just raised his hand and caught the damn thing in an attempt to keep it away from his face or other body part.
"Aaahhh!!!"
A shrill screamed escaped his mouth as felt a piercing pain through his entire arm. It felt like someone was drilling into his bones.
Leo immediately rushed up to him for help, and grabbed the thing trying to pull the the eye it out if his palm.
[Zap it-nya!] Aiden shouted.
Leo frowned and raised his face to look at Harry, "This is going to hurt, but hold onto it!"
As soon as he was done speaking, a yellow colored energy shout of his body and turning into thin threads of current.
"Crackle!"
