Clover frowned, deep in thought. "I think they're hitting different places each time. Maybe we can try to figure out a pattern based on the locations?" Sam nodded and started scribbling notes on her palm with a pen she produced from thin air, as if by magic.

"We should also keep an eye on anyone who seems suspicious," Alex suggested. "They might be working for this person without realizing it."

Sam smiled at that. "I'll get on it right away. In the meantime, you three should focus on figuring out how to use your new gadgets." She gestured toward their freed forms. "They could come in handy during this mission." Clover and Alex nodded, already heading over to examine their new tools.

Kentou watched them with a sense of pride, glad that he was now part of this team. Together, they would make the world a safer place.

Clover listens intently as Mike shares his story, her eyes filling with tears. "I'm so sorry, Mike... I can't even begin to imagine what you've been through." She pauses for a moment, collecting herself before continuing. "But now that we know about Corridor BX and the hidden lab, we have a chance to make things right. Together, we can find your mom and bring her home... And we can expose those who did this to you." Her voice is resolute, filled with determination.

Clover nods in agreement, her heart racing with anticipation and fear. "Okay... at midnight it is." She glances around one last time before turning back to Mike. "Let's go over the plan again, just to be sure we don't miss anything." Together, they huddle close together, going over every detail of their daring mission. As they do so, Clover can't help but feel a surge of pride and admiration for Mike...

"Well, that clears that up," Sam says with a hint of sarcasm. "Looks like we have some more digging to do."

We're doing fine thanks for asking

I think I'm ready for this," she whispers shakily before pressing the tip of herself against him. Alex watches them intently, enjoying the sight of their growing attraction to one another. She glances over at Monkis, who smiles encouragingly back at her.

Monkis reaches out, running his fingers through Clover's hair as she begins to sink down onto him. He groans with pleasure as she takes more of him inside herself, arching his back and thrusting deeper into her wet heat. "

Oh... God..." Clover moans, feeling overwhelmed by the sensations coursing through her body. Her head falls back against Sam's shoulder as she begins to move in time with Monkis's thrusts.

Sam bites her lip, trying to fight off the growing desire she feels for both of them. She looks at Alex, their eyes meeting for a moment before glancing away again, unable to face the intensity of those green irises. "How about you, Alex?"

"No! Samantha, stop!" Alex wails, struggling against the unyielding hold that has taken over her once dear friend.

Samantha's eyes glaze over, all light extinguished from their familiar depths. With a sudden jerk of her wrist, she forces the vial past Alex's lips, making sure every drop of the writhing parasite enters her body.

"Alex...?"* She mouths the name, a fleeting flicker of recognition before the parasite's influence takes full hold.*

Alex convulses violently as the parasite invades her system, its influence spreading rapidly through her veins. Her screams turn to guttural moans as it begins to rewire her brain, twisting her desires and obliterating her sense of self.

"Noooo..." Her voice breaks off into a strangled cry as the pain reaches unbearable levels. Samantha watches impassively, held fast by the parasite's will.

"Now you understand," Jannik gloats, his eyes alight with cruel satisfaction. "The sweet agony of submission."
