vykkers lab installment 147

sO fReAkIn oDd · #1 09-14-2002, 12:23 PM

okay im gonna try to write something good but this is my first fan fic so bare with me.

It was cold in vykkers labs. Ever since Abe and Munch blew up one of the facilities they started to fly them at higher altitudes. The tempuratures up there were almost unbearable. The only rooms that were heated belonged to the vykkers themselves. The cold was supposed to keep us in line, it just killed us quicker. They had other safety precautions too, all interns and vykkers were outfitted with blitz packers and covered in armor. they started to hire sligs too, mostly big bros. When Abe blew up that first vykkers lab, it made things real difficult for us scrubs here on vykkers labs installment 147. we had all been confined to single 2 x 2 ft closets as living quarters and the number of interns and sligs on patrol makes sure no one could talk. Things had gotten bad. They have started using mudokons as test subjects more often, giving them more arms to add to productivity, ripping out our vocal chords, and testing those odd-awful products on us. Butt-Flo may sound funny, but when they order the mud next to you to drink 10 gallons of it, all you can do is watch him die a very slow and embarassing death. Then came the day when things changed and i would never be the same...........

tell me if you guys want to hear more!!

sO fReAkIn oDd · #4 09-14-2002, 05:24 PM

well, ill do some more cuz u asked. remember this is my first fan fic!

I was in the clinic when it happened, a slig had beat me up pretty bad, my leg was broken, my jaw was unhinged, i couldnt feel anything in my hand (mainly because it was completely crucshed), and i was having a hard time staying concious. i was suprised that they even put a clinic in, i didnt know why they would heal us anyway, they were the ones who made us like this in the first place! It was my first time at the clinic and id never heard anything shocking or bad about it, so i decided i'd have a vykker check me out. The clinic itself was of poor quality, what can you expect, it was for us muds! The walls were stained brown from odd knows what and you could hear screams from far down into the "doctors" rooms, the place was built like an echo cave.

A vykker receptionist peered over at me while i sat on the floor (they didnt give us chairs), i felt uncomforatable, i waved and said "hello!". It gave me a blank stare, "Go on in," it commanded, "the doctor will see you now!"

I went through a large door and stumbled down a narrow and filthy hallway, i finally got to Doctor Vincent's office. I knocked and hobbled in. I saw him, he had on a white doctors coat tailored specifically for a vykker. I gazed at his tiny pincered hands gripping his rusty tools and it gave me a chill. "Sit down!" he yelled in a shrill voice and pointed to a very uncomfaratable looking chair. I did so immediately. He looked at me, and said, "My, you stupid beasts, you just dont know how to stay out of trouble!" he rummaged through some drawers, "If I had it my way, we would have killed all of you a long time ago." He pulled out a very long and VERY sharp probe. "Well, in any case.....what do you need." I kind of looked at him funny. "Could you fix me?" He had a look on his face which screamed 'you're an idiot'! "Whatever..." He jammed the probe in my eye! I felt and unbelievable amount of pain and then i suddenly passed out.

"Wake up, wake up now Ben! NOW! Before its too late."

I woke up and was at a loss for i saw at least 1,000 mudokons in this gigantic room with me. I slowly picked my self up. The room was so dark all you could see were the mudokons, everything else was black.

"What in the name of Odd?"

"Ben, you must save them!"

"I dont understand whats going on!"

"You will soon, you will soon Ben."

Silversnow · #5 09-14-2002, 06:17 PM

Oh! Now we're talking really good fan fic

! Keep on writing, you've got atleast my attention!

sO fReAkIn oDd · #6 09-14-2002, 09:23 PM

okay ill do some more

I stood there in amazement, looking at all these mudokons, and wondering where i was. I finally walked over to one and said "Hello. Do you know where we are?" This mud gave me a blank stare and finally said "No, no one does," eerily everyone, and i mean all of them turned and looked right at me and said, "We were hoping you did!"

Now this came as quite a shock to me, and i kind of stood there awkwardly until i said, "No, i dont know where we are. Thats why i asked." A hushed moment of silence befell everyone in the room, followed immediately by a hurried look of panic across of there faces.

"Were all doomed!!" said a small squeeky voice i could not place because the face was far past my vision.

"No one is doomed! If i can just figure this out we'll all be fine!" I told them when i didnt have a clue what was going on.

"Ben, you must hurry Ben. Your running out of time."

"I dont know what to do! I can't figure this out!" I said.

**two muds in the back of the room talking**
"Whos he talkin to?"
"Havent you ever talked to these mystical voices before? There all over the place!"
**back to Ben and the mystical voice**

"Ben, listen for it Ben. Tell them to listen." said this eerie but somewhat comforting voice.

"Everybody sit down and shaddup! Im trying to hear something!" I yelled as loud as i could.

**Two muds in the back**
"I think he's crazy!"
"Well, he could be a saviour!"
"So let me get this straight, he's either our saviour and leader or he's some crazy nutter who talks to absolutely nothing?!?"
"Those are usually the two choices."
"Well in that case let's be quiet!"
**Back to Ben and mystical voice**

I listened for what seemed like ages, i could hear nothing but the sound of the other Muds breathing. Then i knew how to get out, but i was far from discovering the plan that was laid ahead for us!

"Everyone! We have fresh air!" *silence* "It means that we have a way out." *silence* "And were not going to be killed!" *puzzled silence* "Our way out is the airvents that are hidden in here somewhere!" *fart followed by dispersed laughter*

**mud in back**
"I see what your saying!"
**Ben**

"Well then lets find those vents!!"

ha i like this oh ya first one to post this time

sO fReAkIn oDd · #8 09-15-2002, 01:54 AM

So began our hurried search, all 1,000 of us frantically searched for any sign of a vent. We searched as long as we could, but many gave up trying. this room was very large and it was hard for even such a large amount of us to find anything. Then came the day when i was the only one searching.

"I give up!"

"Ben, you heard the wrong thing, listen harder Ben!"

"Why didnt you tell me this earlier?"

"Odd works in mysterious ways."

I listened intently and pondered what i am supposed to hear. Maybe it wasnt something physical but from beyond the physical world. Maybe i was supposed to feel what i heard. I didnt have any other choices but to try it. I was sitting and thinking very hard, then i began to feel what i thought. i thought about where these vents might be. Suddenly i began to chant, i chanted more rapidly and vigorously, faster and faster, moving my hands quicker and quicker. I heard a gasp from behind me.

**"A vent!! I found a vent!"

I whirled around and stopped chanting. there was a 3 x 4 ft vent in the middle of the room. I ran over to it and removed its lid.

"Everyone stay here! Im going to see what this is all about!"

I dropped down into the vent and landed a long ways down. The drop almost killed me. the vents became too small for me to walk so i instead began to roll. eventually i came to a grate in the vent, i peered through its slits and looked down below. it looked like a security room. An inter with a blitz packer was watching a moniter of the black room we were in.

**Intern**
"Mmmph mmph mhh mph mphhh"

An armored vykker sawbones entered through an automatic door and looked at him.

**Vykker**
"Are you sure they found the vent?"

"MMPHH MMPH MPHH MPPHHHH!!!"

"So they know about our cloaking device, it was about time they figured it out."

"MMph Mpph mhhh"

"You know your right. Those dumb beasts dont know what it is. Only the one who crawled down probably understood it!"

I recognized that voice, but who was it?
"Well, were almost there anyway. The test is complete and we dont need to keep them in the dark anymore. Turn on the lights!"

The intern flicked a switch, i glanced at the moniter. To my horror i saw that what we had been staying in was an old sluaghter house and soul storm brewery. Blood was soaked into the steel the room was made out of and thousands of bottles of brew lay all around.
The vykker took off his mask. It was Vincent, the doctor!
"You understand if word got out about what we are doing with these slaves they would kill us" he asked the intern.

"MMMMH HMMMMM!" the intern glanced at him feverishly. he was probably thinking about the horrific things they might do.

I ran back down the vents and got back to the other muds as quick as possible. It was even more horrifc in the room. It looks like Vykkers labs did its own brew and mudoken pops when the glukkens werent looking.
But what did he mean by cloaking device, and what did he mean by if they were caught they would be killed, and why would he need so many of us?

"You will know very soon Ben, but you have little time!"

cool fic, keep writing!

sO fReAkIn oDd · #10 09-15-2002, 12:37 PM

Thanks, im glad someone likes it. this one is gonna be a little short.

"I dont understand. Where are we going, how much time?" I yelled out to that strange voice as loud as i could.

"I cannot tell you Ben, you must do this on our own accord."

"Can't you tell me who you are?"

"This I can do." a long pause, "I am Sujalin, I was once the head Tribesman of both, the Mudanchee, and Mudomo tribes. I, long ago, kept the flintlocks lit deep in the temples. Then came the great change when the Glukkens pervaded our lands and enslaved our people, the tribes split and I was left without anyone. I made a pilgramage to Necrum, as it was the only peaceful place left on Mudos, I became a head preist and guarder of the souls of all buried there. At about the time our young hero Abe rescued his fellow Mudokons and destroyed Rupture Farms, the armies of Soul Storm Brew slaughtered everyone in Necrum except for those who were able bodied enough to work. They kept me alive to guide them to the largest grave sites in Necrum. Then Abe rescued us, I made it sure that I was not rescued as I went deep into Necrum and burned all information on the graves. I payed for this crime at the hands of a Glukken, but I recieved my reward in the afterlife Ben. I am now spiritual guide to all who require my help. I am here to help you."

I was amazed at his story. I had one question though.

"You knew Abe?" I waited for his reply.

"That I did." I remained quiet at the mention of Abe's name, I heard a gasp that sounded like the wind.
"OH NO! BEN YOU MUST HURRY AND SAVE THEM!"

Rich · #11 09-15-2002, 05:19 PM

Good stuff here, keep doing more

sO fReAkIn oDd · #12 09-15-2002, 09:08 PM

I quickly glanced around and for the first time i noticed that all of my wounds and physical ailments were gone. I now in fact just remembered that i had been in serious pain before. I was perfectly healthy, and i was in peak physical condition. I knew then that we were gonna be used for labor of some great magnitude because of the excellent job they did fixing us. There was only one way i could find out how to escape this horrid room and free my brethren.

"I must go back and listen again!" I said to myself.

**Muds in back**
"I told you that he was crazy!"
"Your right, he is crazy, lets follow him."

Before i entered the vent I sat on the edge of it and gave a little thought about what i was doing. Then i was approached by two mudokons, the frist one outstreched his hand and said,

"Hi, im Joe." he pointed to his companion and said, "This is Tim." I shook Tim's hand as well, "We were wondering......" he trailed off,
"If we could join you." said Tim.

"uhhhh. Sure if you really want to." I hopped down into the vent when i realized that Joe and Tim were right behind me.

**WHUMP**

They landed right on top of me. They wiggled around until our limbs became untangled.

"Geezz you guys!! Watch it next time!" I rolled down the vent, i heard them right behind me. We eventually reached the grate in the wall. The intern sat fast asleep at his post.

"Whats your name?" Tim asked me.
"My name is Ben."
"Well Ben, you need to possess that intern, can you do it?"
"I'll try." I concentreted as hard as i could on being that intern, i started to chant and move my hands in pattern. This weird felling came over me, i opened my eyes, i saw what i normally saw, but when i thought about that intern, i saw what he saw. I slowly staggered him out of the room. Now i just had to find that vykker.

I "saw" him sitting at a table, with two hareless fuzzles. He non-chalantly pulled out their eyes and exchanged them. Now, i just had to try talking.

"Ben, tell him to say, 'Hey boss, could you tell me what the plan is again,' Tell him to say that." These guys sure looked dim, but they had figured out what i was doing. I tried his suggestion.

"M-M-M-P-P-P-H-H-H M-M-P-P-P-H-H H-MMMMM?"

The vykker gave the intern a blank stare.

"What are you talking about?" he said, "My mother has been dead for 8 years!" Apparently whatever i said was way off, "Look, what did you really want?" He said as he tapped his stubs on the floor. This was my last chance, if i screwed up again, that vykker would probably kill my intern.
I concentrated.
"Mmmh mmph mppph mhhp."

"Oh you idiot! How could you forget the plan?!?"

"Good job Ben."

Kesiah · #13 09-16-2002, 10:15 AM

heheheheheheh!

"Your right, he is crazy, lets follow him."

I like that, and the mother joke, those are funny. I do have a suggestion though, you might want to take the time to have someone spell and gramma check your works for you, that way your fic will read better and people will find it easier to understand.

sO fReAkIn oDd · #14 09-16-2002, 07:16 PM

sorry, i was never good at grammar, i'll have it checked from now on. i'll work on the story a little later though because i have a huge amount of homework.

Silversnow · #15 09-17-2002, 04:43 PM

That's a good... eh... schoolchild, always do your homework first. Oh. I had homework too! *runs off*

*imagines the vykker's mother* Ew... Anyway, that's reeaally good stuff! Keep it up!

sO fReAkIn oDd · #16 09-17-2002, 11:19 PM

I hope this one is easier to understand, I tried.

"You stupid Intern!," Vincent paused and sighed. "It's very simple." He divulged his really quite brilliant plan to me in full detail.

The vykkers assumed that Abe's next plan was to rescue Sam, the mudokon queen, so they took the safety precuation of having Sam held on various vykker lab installments. At the time, she was being held on vykker lab installment 147. Vincent took a job as the director of the clinic so he could have direct access to Sam for "medical checkups" while she was staying on the ship. He was also soley in-charge for her medical records and birth records, no one else saw those records. He kept with-holding her transfer to other installments by saying she was unfit for the transfer. He did this so he, and a few select interns, could secretly harvest the queens eggs. No one saw that the number of mudoken births on the ship went down, because no one else had access to the birth records. To raise the eggs, he held them in his personal brew and slaughter house he had hidden under the labs a long time ago. The old slaughter house was the perfect incubation chamber and hiding place for the eggs because no one but him knew it exsisted. He started to then steal injured mudokons directly from the labs when they reported to the clinic because he realized he was missing out on possible slaves.

I smiled at how he ignorantly told me his plan. He continued.....

He explained to "me" how he was flying the ship to a secret location where he would meet with Glukkon rulers of the Magog Cartel, he was meeting them because-HE WAS SELLING US TO BE SLAVES TO THE GLUKKON QUEEN!!!

I was startled and I lost control of the intern. He violently began to shake and exploded!

"WHAT THE HELL?!" screamed Vincent.

"We gotta get outta here!!" I yelled in my own squeeky voice.

Go Ben Go! Gotta read more!

sO fReAkIn oDd · #19 09-20-2002, 09:27 PM

I turned around and began to roll as fast as I could.

"GUYS HURRY UP!!" I yelled. We moved fatser down the vent, then suddenly I heard a very bad sound from behind me.

"AH HA!" Yelled Vincent. As soon as he had finsihed the words I felt a seering pain in my back. I fell over and couldnt get back up. Tim and Joe turned and tried to drag me along.

"GO!" I yelled.

"We can't just-"

"GO!!!!" I yelled at them. My vision began to blur, and I slowly saw nothing but black. I felt my body being dragged down the vent, back towards Vincent.
"You have been a very bad mudokon." said Vincent.
I lost feeling in my body, I passed out.

I guess I woke up a few hours later because I was hungry. It must have been around supper time. I opened my eyes, I was up against a wall, chained to the wall to be precise. I looked around the new room I was in, it was a simple square steel room, half of it was covered in deep shadows, and the other half on my left was well lit. I didnt see anyone else in the room, I tried to pull my hands out of my chains, just before I got my right hand free, a bolt of electricity shot through the chains and into me. The amount of pain was unbearable, I passed out again.

I woke up to the sound of somethings voice.

"Don't do that again!" I looked around, I couldnt see anyone, I peered into the shadow that covered half of the room. A giant white screen jumped out of the shadows and decended from the ceiling.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" I screamed as loud as I could. The thing revealed itself completely, it had a giant iron sphere behind the screen in which it's "face" was displayed, it also had many iron legs extending from the pre-mentioned sphere, on the end of each leg was a tool of somekind. It "walked" over to me, much like a spider moves, and brought forth one of its arms and held the drill located on the end of it up to my face and gave it a spin.
"If you do that again, they'll send another bolt big enough to kill you!!" It removed the drill from in front of my face and drilled through my chains. I wasn't quite sure what was going on. "Sam is through the door." He pointed with a different arm towards a door on the other side of the room, I had just then noticed the door there. I was shaking terribly, I looked back at this giant robotic beast.
"W-hh-o a-rr-e y-yo-u." I asked in a great deal of fright.
"I take care of Sam, my name is Shrink, and I want out of here as much as you do." He paused and it lowered it's "face" almost so it was touching my mine. "And I'm going to help you whether you like it or not."
He held up the drill up to my face and spun it again.

Rich · #20 09-21-2002, 05:49 PM

I wanna see more!

sO fReAkIn oDd · #21 09-23-2002, 06:50 PM

To tell you the truth, Shrink made me nervous, I don't know why paticularly but I just felt uneasy around him, his giant mechanical body made me feel uncomforatable, and his mudokon face was a contradiction of what he was made to do. He was to there to make sure slaves became slaves and more slaves kept coming.

"I know about the Vykker's plan." He said as we were walking towards the door. "I know he didn't tell you everything, because I know all of the plan."

"How do you know the plan?" I said in question. He whirled around to face me.

"How do you think I know it? I'm the only one with direct acsess to Sam besides that horrible Vykker!" he paused, "but what he divulged to you was not the complete plan. His real plan goes much deeper than he led you on." He 'closed' his eyes temporarily. "I want out of this place!"

I looked at him.
"Why can't you leave?"

"You stupid creature, do you think these Vykkers are going to let me waltz on out of here?!? I'm a prisoner as much as you are, but my purpose will be over quite soon." His face grew very bitter, "I hate these Vykkers, I hate them more than anything, even more than the Glukkons! The Glukkons took better care of me." He raised a few of his robotic arms, they squeeked with rust. "These damn things don't care about me, not anymore. Once they finish the expiriments on Sam, I'll be useless." He stood silent for a moment and lowered his head, I nervously turned and said,

"The Glukkons looked after you once?" He lifted his head back up. "Where did they keep you then?"

He sighed and said,
"Sam and I were kept on moving trains which came from Feeco Depot. It was simple back then, we would make egg drop-off's at various slaughter houses and breweries, and then be on our way. Things were going fine until it was decided that it was too risky for Sam and I to remain there with Abe on the loose. So the Glukkons made a deal with the Vykkers. If the Vykkers kept Sam and my own location carefully hidden from the Mudokon rebels, the Glukkons would give partnership rights to the slig Queen Skillya. The Vykkers, sick of their stupid Intern security force, gladly excepted the new, more battle hardened troops of sligs. So here I am, trapped like a Scrub in a slaughter house because of these stupid power hungry beasts."

I didn't want to ask him, but I had to.

"What expiriments are they performing on Sam?"
He turned to me once again.

"Look through this door, and you will see the terrifying horrors which befell your Queen." One of his rusty probes pushed open the door.

The door creeked and swung open slowly. Light from inside the room hit me in the eyes. Once my eyes adjusted I was not prepared for what I gazed upon.

"Oh Ben, this was quite unexpected."

"Sujalin?" I said quietly.

sO fReAkIn oDd · #25 09-28-2002, 11:18 PM

The room that I looked in upon was lit well in the center. Circular lights cascaded down into the center of the room. Many medical gurneys and cracked and broken eggs lay strewn across the floor. In the very center of the room, was Sam, my Queen, and my mother. All sorts of plugs and wires and needles were plugged deep into her flesh. She was hooked up to a respirator and was fast asleep. I walked over to her and gently touched her face with my hand. She awoke and gazed up at me, I barely heard these words uttered in a gentle wheeze,

"Ben, help me."

I jumped back and continued to walk back in a state of fright. I backed right up into something, I yelped and ran forward but a metal pincer grabbed me. I slowly opened my eyes, it was Shrink. Shrink set me down with a look on his face that just screamed ‘you moron’.

“What have they done to her Shrink?” I asked him, I felt sick.

“They are taking samples of her DNA.” he stated with a very grim look on his face.

“What is D-N-A?” I asked.

“DNA is the genetic make-up of all living things,” Shrink looked down at me and saw that I was still puzzled, “It is a code or map of how something is built or can be built, in this case, that thing is your Queen.”

“I don’t underst-” Shrink cut me off mid-sentence.

“They are cloning her Ben. Once they are done with the expiriments and are done cloning her they will have little need for her, but she will remain alive. She will be a prisoner here forever. Her life will be a never-ending cycle of pain and self-loathing.” He gazed forward, “We must kill her.”

“WHAT!?! NO! She is my mother! I can’t do that, I won’t do that!” I was deadly afraid of Shrink now.

“Ben, don’t think that I want to kill her. Don’t think that she will be really dead. We can resurrect her with the DNA Vincent took from her. We must kill her now before Vincent can do any more considerable harm. Show her mercy Ben.” he paused and said, "We can't rescue your brothers and her. It would be not only impossible, but it would be suicide."

“I just can’t do that.” I said very quietly. The from across the room I heard a very sad but motherly voice.

“Ben, kill me. Do it and bring me back later. Save your brothers and kill me.”

“Mommy NO!” I turned to Shrink, “There has to be another way.”

“Ben, it is the only way.”

“Sujalin, not you too.”

“Ben, who are you talking to? Who is Sujalin?”

“Ben do it now and save your brothers.”

“Ben, you must do it now! NOW!” Shrink yelled at me, he pointed to a console.

I looked at the main console which Shrink directed me to, my mother’s life support. I walked over to it and grasped the main switch.

“I’m sorry mother. Odd forgive me.” I pulled the switch.......
