Chapter 5: Endings for some, beginnings for a few
"On tonight news, news of a police raid of a drug brewery have been reported in, evidence of the drug 'Elixir' have been found along with what has been found to be recorded details of dealers and drug bins all over Bayville. The police are rounding up all the people on the list for questioning; however there is no sign of the people responsible as there seem to be a massive sink hole leading to a number of sewers and drainages pipes. Perhaps an accident or an attempt to escape? We'll keep you posted and now for the weather…"
Lance turned off the news and smiled, Todd crouched there slurping down a massive milkshake and Fred sat on his sofa chair.
"Dude think we did the right thing calling the police?" Fred asked.
"Yeah, at least this way we don't have to worry about people thinking we did it" Lance chuckled "They think the sink hole was an accident done by the chemicals"
"Still…what about Harold? They didn't find him" Todd said "What if he comes back?"
"Dude the guy took a massive overdose he's probably dead!" Fred declared, just then Pietro zipped in.
"This is brilliant; now that all the dealers and that have been arrested we can start our own business!" Pietro cried and held up a piece of paper "It just so happens while I was getting all records of Toad out of the way I found a copy of the recipe for Elixir!"
"Didn't you learn anything from this?" Lance demanded.
"Come on all the ingredients we can get and we've got our own supply of slime alla Toad, we can sell it for double the price!" Lance snapped the paper out of Pietro hands and looked at it carefully.
"This thing almost got us killed and arrested, and since Toad is going to be the one who's putting his health on the line I say it's his call, so Toad what do you think?"
Todd looked carefully at it and then at the floor.
"Dude this stuff is poison and those kids died cos of me I say this…" and with that grabbed the paper out of Lance's hand with his tongue and ate it. "Good riddance!"
"TOAD!" Pietro cried "Think about this, the money…"
"Hey don't worry, yo' you'll get the recipe back, in a few days or so heh heh heh!" Todd cackled and Pietro looked disgusted and left, Lance smiled and Todd carried on slurping his drink.
"Good choice Todd"
"Why thank you!" he chuckled and bowed.
Meanwhile a hulking figure hid in the shadows, it was smaller than before but even so it was still a twisted gnarl of muscle of a person. It staggered in a stench of the sewers and hissed to itself.
"My life and business is ruined and it's all those mutant freaks' fault…they're going to pay dearly for this mark my words that little slimy freak will pay!"
To be continued…depending on how many reviews I get XD
