Cobra
He was dreaming again, this time...he saw the rolling river and heard a voice. He couldn't distinguish between Silas or Cobra. His heart rate was thumping against his chest as he fell into the rolling depths of the river and his breathing came out in rasps and gasps as if he were drowning. He could hear himself saying, "Noo...Please...I can't swim..a stroke..."
That was when his eyes fluttered open and sweat poured off his face. He wasn't sure where he was, and his heart was hammering against his chest. The ceiling was off, and he was tied down. He licked his lips, noticing that they were dry. He couldn't move and his eyes were flicking back and forth in panic. He didn't recognize any thing and didn't even know where he was.
Well, maybe he was back in the house in a room with an examination table. "Naruto?" His voice came out small. "If this is about me attempting escape? I'm sorry." He was going to be apologetic. "I even recall what happened and why I was in the river. That's a good thing, right?"

Cobra paces around the medical table, pondering how he could twist this. There was always ways to manipulate. Especially when a human contained any memory, even after at times. But clearly Maxwell was recalling bits of his past. Ah, yes, leverage. At times it was easy. He walks up, gripping the side of the cold table. "Ah, Maxwell I see you're having those dreams about drowning. No worries, there's no future of it." He continues to try and manipulate. "Escape you did try, out of fear. You were under severe drugs that caused deep parinioa. It was only a temporary serum to see how it would help the mind. Unfortunately, it caused you to experience false images, your fears to emerge." He bends down, hovering a device in certain areas. "You were a willing human to be tested to help your kind when they're sick or have condtions." He smirks. "Things seem to go great." ---- Cobra twirls, looking over at Venus. She was still out. She'd be awake anytime soon. Just have to keep a low dosage of a crafted serum to keep her awake, yet, severe brain fog. you |

Maxwell was confused as he tried to process this. "What if it were something about the past and not the future?" He was looking confused. Not knowing if there were any drugs in his system. He decided to look around. "But none of this is familiar. If I were to help my kind and stuff, wouldn't I have something in my ear or a recollection of things? Other than drugs that cause memory loss?" He couldn't figure it out. "What's your name again? Oh..You're Cobra. You must be Naruto's friend."
But when he tried to move, he found it a little different. He was used to being allowed and able to move comfortably. The one thing he noticed was how cold the table was. He didn't really panic over the device. He lifted his head, seeing that his head wasn't bound to the table. Then he looked over and saw Venus. "Oh. She must have had something wrong."

Valhalla was waiting for Venus to wake up from her sleep. Three times, he checked. But observing both humans. Maxwell seemed to be believing him, but asking questions to get a bearing.

Venus wouldn't would wake until ten minutes when Valhalla checked for the third time. Even then, she'd go back to sleep or even try. Eventually she would awake, drunkenly observing around. She couldn't think but very little fragments emerging, just about her past. She weakly blinks, displaying a small perplexed expression. "Where am I? Why does this feel familiar?"

Cobra chuckles as Maxwell attempt to clutch on the truth as he was very vacant in the mind. Though, Cobra would attempt a few techniques to achieve the lies he tries to plant in his own ideas and lies to Maxwell. He won't stop until it works. He curls his fingers, then walks over.
He grips Maxwell's hand, placing a bracelet around his wrist. "Maxwell, I think I'm aware of what the pills do to you. There's one out there that help with humans that have brain injuries. Therefore, that's what you agreed on. Your own race, you agreed to help. I plan to help you 'recover' your memory."
He draws back. The bracelet sticks a few needles into his veins. "Yes, his 'friend." he chuckles, looking at Venus. "In a way." he barely smirks.

Maxwell was rambling on and on. "I never lay on a table before. Why is it so cold? Don't you have blankets or sheets off the metal?" He was full of questions. He was watching and then saw a bracelet. "Oh I don't need that." He spoke but he had already put it on him. He tried to move his arm out of his way and realized that he was tied down and couldn't move. "Ow. Why can't I just swallow pills? Why does that thing have to be on my arm---take it off...it's hurting me."
He was slightly panicking. "Where's Naruto? I want him."

Cobra grimaces, "because if I get a dirty surface, it's easier to clean up," he explains willingly, a little annoyed at what this was going. "Yes you do Maxwell, you're not the brainiac here," he darkly smirks. Returning over to Maxwell, he grips his head and shoves it down. "You need to remain calm or I'm going to knock you out," he warns.
He looks over at Val, a little annoyed by the process, not his partner. "Are you going to do anything with the white one? If not, inform me before I continue," he asks, drawing back. He looks down at Maxwell. "Naruto isn't around right now." He grits his fangs. "Don't make it harder on yourself, Maxwell. This exact thing, you're fighting caused the wrong dose to enter your body. The results? Memory loss."

The only reason Maxwell was reacting this way? He was nervous and he always seemed to be a blabbermouth when he was. "I didn't know. I guess it's easier to clean when you have a human you're operating on." Although his head was shoved down, his eyes were wide and it seemed he was having a reaction to something in the room. "It smells funny in here. Aren't you affected by it?" Fortunately, being giddy didn't help matters anyway. "Oh." He moved his feet showing that he was very 'wild' and 'active' for some reason. "Oh no...I don't need to be put to sleep forever." He misunderstood being knocked out. "I mean, aren't I perfectly healthy although I'm a blabbermouth when I'm nervous."
Valhalla chuckled as Maxwell was talking a mile a minute..Then he said something. "She's awake now. I think it's best to continue now." He clasped her hand and drew up a bracelet as well. Placing it around her wrist and the small needles stuck into her veins. "Done with the blood testing."
Maxwell couldn't stop. "Oh. Maybe he'll come visit after you're done. He moved his other hand. That was all he could do.

Venus yelps, glaring over at Val. "That isn't necessary." She places her head back down, then continues to listen. She darts her heavy eyes over to Maxwell. She could view a pretty good angle from her laying position. She notes the markings on Maxwell. She scowls over at Cobra. "You lie! You were drowning him back at that river. Those leeches that we removed are proof. Don't listen to him, Maxwell. Lies are seeping out of his mouth." She'd probably get a negative reaction. She didn't care, as long as Maxwell would pierce through the brainwashing and view the truth.

His brain was all confused and not really sure whether to believe him. "But why use drugs to repair brain damage quickly? I could recover my memories some other way. Maybe a picture or a familiar setting?" He asks of Cobra. He was beginning to believe it. But his head moved down to his body. "Drugs could be harmful."

"Wild humans..." Cobra muffles as he walks over to the side of the bracelet adjusting it by applying another serum. It would force him to relax, but not groggy or tired, just easing down. He steps back. "There, that should calm you," he quietly mentions, walking closer. His shadow looming over him.
Cobra viciously grins, taking that opportunity to scare him further into obeying. He was not going to correct Maxwell. Why would he? "Then ease the questions by only one at a time," he growls, grimacing in annoyance. He rolls his eyes.
He peers over at Valhalla. "Ah, good everything well? If so apply this serum," he friendly instructs, taking the liquid and extended his arm over to his partner. "This will help you understand her mind at a deeper level."
He fired a wicked scowl once Venus was calling him out. He might believe it now, but she's bound to express, and surface the truth. Oh no, he can't allow it. He rushes over, grips her neck to force her down as he places a mask over her nose and mouth. The fumes were the same as the drug administrated in Maxwell.
One done, he shifts over to Val. "You're welcome to finish this one in another room if you like?" he gifted an option. Then directs his view down at Maxwell. "what a strange picture in her mind. Drowning you? Now why would I drown you?" he tries to shift the truth into a lie. HE nervously chuckles, "that's the reason, Maxwell." he points down at Venus. He just hoped Max didn't spark any memory by specific words.

What the call out didn't wake up Maxwell? What will? Regardless, she kept on doing it before Cobra came hastily over. "It's not a dream Maxwell. I've told you about the water running. No one has the same image unless they were together," she tries to continue but her neck was grabbed. She yelpes fighting the mask hard. She uselessly still challenged the mask.

Maxwell was considering his options when something was given through his bracelet. He grunted. "Oh come on...Asking questions is a good way to get answers." He felt less likely to fight and weird. He was drugged. "You know..I remember someone trying to drown me and it wasn't an orangutan. Looked a whole lot like you?" He was staring directly at him, noticing his vicious smile. As he looked at him, he recalled. "You were drowning me in the river, hoping that'd I get leach bitten, and you didn't care."
Then he also recalled being with Venus. "And she was pleading for you to release me. Hey! Leave her alone." He was so out of it that he couldn't lift his head, but could see out of the side of his eye. Then he began to see that there was a problem. Flashes of his old life came up. It was a village...and he thought he saw his ape guardian. He was teaching him how to do other things because every other human was quicker than he. So he was slow-but another female human came up in his memory.
Then he saw Cobra. "You're not my guardian." He finally said. "And she is my best friend."

Valhalla took the vial from Cobra. He did need to see into her mind. Then he heard Maxwell talking. He furrowed his brows. "I guess your 'brainwashing' attempt is failing." He whispered to him as he set to work on Venus.
He was quiet as he worked, not really listening to Venus. He was watching her fight. "Give up."

Venus smiles within the mask, hearing vividly her foolish attempts working as Maxwell expresses and realizes the truth. She nods, grinning over at the infuriated scientist over by Maxwell. She couldn't speak, but whatever drug was administrating caused her fighting to slightly eased. She found no point with little energy and stopped.

Cobra didn't challenge Maxwell on his truthful statements, instead, he throws another lie. "Maxwell, is your mind rewinding events? Well, if so, it's the medications. You both had suffered." He grins maliciously, injecting another serum through his neck into his spine. "You will forget all of this, even, perhaps others."
"Here, Val," he utters, placing the serum on the tray beside him. He hears him and winces. "That white rat causes all sorts of issues. Of course, it will fail," he slowly growls. He steps back, sighing, "Val when you administrate, ensure that human is very still. If you inject in the wrong spot, it can kill." He walks back over to Max.
Swiftly, he places a medical halo around his head. The needles piercing his forehead and around. "Don't move Maxwell." He warns, drawing back to a transparent screen.
