The Wild Side Of Me Chapter 16

Versailles ( Audrey Bonnefoy) belongs to @queen-of-stoneharts

A few days passed, the group was still working on the plan. "The place where Tolys is being held in must be really well protected. It would be foolish of us to just come in being noticed by everyone. We need to go unnoticed." explained Alice. "Right, but first we need to locate the location. Where exactly their base could be?" asked Roderich. "Leave it to me. After all, Tolys is my boyfriend and I promised him to protect him." explained Alfred. "Alright. But still, how are we gonna break in, when we find the locations?" asked Feliks. "Well, I think I got an answer for that. We're just gonna fit in the background. It will be some work with this, but I'm really determined to make the hunters outfits, in order to break in and save a friend." said Audrey. "That’s a really nice idea Audrey." complimented the Austrian. Blushes appeared on her face:"Is nothing. Really." "No, that’s really brilliant idea, Audrey. It will be much easier to sneak up without rising suspicion, if we have disguises." said Alfred. "But still, we need to find this location. We have to think. If we were this kind of organization, we would probably have our base in a place no one would expect it or really well hidden. Hmmm…" said Alice. "Perhaps…" began Feliks but he stopped himself. "Go on honey" said the Polish woman. "Well, I thought maybe if we knew one of the hunters, we could follow them until they reach their base." answered the man. "That’s actually not a bad idea. Yeah, I even know someone I can follow. I will simply follow Gilbert." said Alfred. Alice looked at him questionably:"Are you sure following Gilbert is a good idea? What if he notices you? At this point he will know that you’re trying to break Tolys out." "I’ll be extra careful. Beside, what are disguises for?" asked the American. "Are you sure about this?" asked Roderich. "I’ll be fine." answered Alfred. "Alright, if you say so." said Feliks. Then they kept talking about their plan. It needed to be well-thought. On the meantime, Tolys was thinking about a way of escape. His teeth clenched, as his energy was being consumed. Each second that passed he could feel himself growing weaker. All of the sudden he heard the door open. He turned around to see Gilbert. "What do you want…ughh…now? Haven’t you seen me suffering enough? There’s…no way you could hurt me…ugh…more than you already have…" said the werewolf, as he tried to hold down his groans from the pain he felt. "Actually, I came here with a proposition." answered Gilbert. "Whatever it is… The answer is no…" said Tolys, looking at the person that stood above him with fury in his eyes. "You didn’t even let me tell you. I’m very much against it, but one of my coworkers proposed that we stop draining your energy and let you out of the chains, placing you in a cell with a comfortable bed, as long as you cooperate with us of course." he explained. "And give up my freedom willingly? Never…" answered the Lithuanian. "If that’s your choice, okay then. Maybe that’s even for the best." said the German. "If not the fact I’m being restrained….I would already punch you. And I wouldn’t even need to be in my werewolf from to do that." said Tolys. A laugh escaped from Gilbert’s mouth:" Do you really think you can scare me? Why even should I be scared of someone like you? You wouldn’t even hurt a fly." "True, because a fly is harmless unlike a monster like you…" answered Tolys. The laugher stopped. "What did you just call me?" asked the German. Then he grabbed the Lithuanian by the tie:"If anything you are the one who’s a monster. Literally. You’re the one who’s a werewolf. And you also got your stupid boyfriend in troubles." "Alfred is not stupid… And I’m sure he’s working on a way to find me and get me out of there." said Tolys. "I don’t see why should he. He probably had enough of the troubles you brought him. After all, who wants a heartless and ugly beast for a boyfriend? All you’ve done for him is put him at risk. He’s better off without you." said Gilbert letting go of Tolys’s tie.

Tolys let his head down, as tears start it dropping down from the brunette’s eyes, and small wolf squealing noises escaped him as well. "Oh, what’s the matter? Did I hit you where it hurts the most?" asked Gilbert, knowing very well that he did. Tolys just looked at him. Not a single answer coming out of his mouth. "Got nothing to say now, do you? Well, no matter. Soon enough, all of this will be over." he said and then left. "Is it true? Is it possible Alfred isn’t planning on saving me? But he fought alongside me when the hunters went after me. Well, is true he doesn’t even know where I am being held thought. Oh, I wish could see him again. I miss him so much. I feel so…incomplete without him. He always knew how to cheer me up." thought the man as more tears came out of his eyes. Tolys really wanted to see his boyfriend again. Feel that feeling of warmth, when they spent their times together. The embrace of a comforting hug from Alfred, when something was wrong or when he hugged him in general. The touch of his hands. His attractive looking face and his body. His goofy but also adorable personality. The taste of his lips. The Lithuanian missed all of this. He didn’t hide from himself that he felt sad and hurt, but on the same time pissed because of Gil’s words toward him. Not to mention the actions he committed against him. On the other hand the werewolf felt guilty about putting Alfred in danger. He never wanted anyone he cares about to get hurt because of him. Especially if it was his lover. "Oh Alfred, what have I done…" escaped his mouth. Some days later, the group was finally ready with starting their plan. Alfred did as he said and tracked down the hunters base, following Gilbert who was so full of himself and didn't even notice the American going after him. All five were wearing their disguises. "Everyone ready?" asked Alfred. "We’re like totally all ready." answered Feliks. "Then let’s go." said the blond man and everyone went out of his house, to only be stopped by Vash and Rose at the entrance. "Where do you think you’re going in those outfits?" asked the Swiss raising his eyebrow. Alfred advanced forward:"You probably heard the news already. So, we’re going to save Tolys. And don’t even think about stopping us, cause we will do it anyway." "Hold on, hold on brother. We’re not here to stop you, or anything." said Rose. "Wait, what?" escaped the American’s mouth as shock appeared on his face. "Are you deaf or something? We came here to help as well. Well, at the beginning when I learnt about Tolys being a werewolf, I was upset that he didn’t say anything and felt like I don’t want anything to do with him anymore. But Rose smacked some sense into my head, and I realized that he’s still my friend and that I shouldn’t juge him for being different." answered Vash. Everyone in the group smiled. "Oh, that’s amazing, you guys." said Alice. "Unfortunately, I don't think you two will be able to go with us and infiltrate their base. I only made five disguises for us. I didn’t know someone would actually want to come with us." explained Audrey. "It doesn’t matter. We can still help in other way. Just come with us." said Rose. Everyone looked questionably at them but did as they asked. As they arrived, they noticed a van, hidden behind the trees. "As you can see, I brought my van. And inside of it.." began Vash and opened the back door:"…we’ve got weapons. Here." the he handed some guns to them. "Let me guess. We have to pay for them, right?" asked Roderich. "Actually, no. Not this time. Is about an important matter, which is saving a friend in need. So, I’ll let you have them for free." answered the Swiss man. "Nice" said Alice. After the conversation, they all got into the van and drove off, Vash driving it as Alfred gave him the destination. "So, here’s how it will go. Vash and Rose you wait for us, with the van hidden. Rod and Audrey, you cause a distraction, so nobody is on our way and notice us when me, Feliks and Alfred get Tolys out. Then we get out of there." explained the Polish woman.

As the seconds were passing by, Tolys could feel that he had less and less energy. He didn’t even have the strength to struggle against the chains anymore. All these days, his energy was being drained out of him, making him feel miserable like never before. Even dark circles appeared around his eyes, as one of the effects caused by his energy being drained, also making him feel tiredness and hurting his whole body. He was also a bit pale. "Oh, you don’t look so well. But, That’s actually the goal." said a well known voice. Tolys opened his eyes and made an effort to look up. In front of him, stood Gilbert. "You…again?" escaped the Lithuanian’s mouth. "Just checking on you and your state. Honestly, I didn’t expect the effects to be this drastic. But, if that means we finish the experiments faster, then be it." said the German. Despite feeling weakened, Tolys looked straight him in the eyes with anger:"Maybe now there’s no effects….ugggh….but sooner or later karma will come for you….and you will pay for everything that you’ve done…" A maniacal laugh escaped from Gil:"Tolys, Tolys, Tolys. Stupid and foolish like always. You will never learn, huh? I honestly don’t know what Alfred saw in you. He must’ve been even dumber that you." Tolys growled at him. "Oh what’s the matter? Getting defensive because I insulted your boyfriend, dog?" asked Gilbert in a mocking way. Tolys didn’t respond anything. Suddenly an alarm starting ringing. "What the hell? Did someone really had another accident in the lab again?" escaped Gil’s mouth as he run out of them room. Tolys let his head down, as he felt more and more powerless. Then suddenly the door opened and three figures appeared in them and came closer to the Lithuanian. "More of you? What do you want this time from me?" asked the werewolf. They took off their masks. Tolys couldn’t believe he would see those faces ever again. Right in front of him stood Alfred, his boyfriend along with his two friends, Feliks and Alice.

He couldn’t help it but feel joy. "Tolys, honey I finally found you. Oh, I missed you so much. So damn much." said Alfred as he hugged him. "I missed you too, my love." said Tolys. After Alfred let go of him, he looked at Feliks and Alice:" I’m happy to see you two as well." "Same for us."said Alice. Then a thought appeared in the Lithuanian’s head:"Wait, but how did you even manage to break in?" "Well, you see at the beginning it was supposed to be only us with Audrey and Rod. But then Vash and Rose totally joined in. Vash gave us guns to defend ourselves just in case, and he drove us here with his van. Then, we passed by in disguises and Audrey and Rod caused a distraction by causing the alarm in the lab, in order to get everyone in one place, while we break you out of there." explained Feliks. A smile formed on Tolys’s face:"Oh you guys. I’m so happy that you came for me. It really means so much to me." Then a groan escaped his mouth. "Tolys, what’s wrong?"escaped from Alfred’s mouth. The American looked at his boyfriend with worry:"Here, let me get this dog muzzle off." As the muzzle was taken off, Alfred threw it really far away. "Oh God, what those monsters did to you?" he asked as he kneeled down. Tolys looked up at him:"The chains…can’t transform…draining my energy…getting weaker…" Another groan. "Guys, we need to free him. Quick!"shout it Alfred. The two nod and run up to the console. "Which button unlocks the chains?" asked Feliks. "Maybe try this one." answered Alice, pointing a big red button. "Alright" said the Polish man and pressed it. The chains let go of the werewolf, as he fell into his boyfriend’s arms. He opened his eyes:"Alfred…I can’t walk…I’m too weak…" A smile appeared on Alfred’s face:"Is alright honey. I can hold you in my arms. I’m sorry that I didn’t get here faster. But I promise you that I’ll never let those bastards hurt you ever again." Then without any questions, he took him in his arms and they immediately went out of the room. On the way, Feliks texted Audrey and Roderich to get out of here as well. Moment later, they grouped up and immediately went to the van, in which Vash and Rose were waiting. When they got inside, they drove off as fast as possible.

[meerawrites]

Character intro: Camille

Inspired by: Mary Wollstonecraft and aggressively subverting the “dumb blonde” trope.

Character summary: she/her, white-French, bisexual, a vampire following the year 1790. Audrey’s half sister, daughter of a Vicomte and Versailles court lady. As skilled with a pen as she is with a rapier.

Fun Fact: she used to just exist cause Audrey needed a sibling, but, she’s really grown on me.

As genre commentary: I loathe the dumb blonde trope, so here’s a blonde vampire with a sword and high notions of the revolution that can destroy you.

Playlist.

The Cricket in Times Square by George Selden

1961 Newbery Honor Book

Adapted by Audrey, Jocelyn, Paxton, and Stella of Cocalico School District (2025)

From Denver. PA

Judges' Remarks: This was a super-charming retelling of the story, with a fun alteration at the end! The combination of green screen and puppets (and the resourceful "newspaper stand") worked well to set the scene in the various locations in New York City like the subway and Times Square itself. The voiceover performances were compelling and fun to listen to, with each character having their own distinctive voice. All the puppets were ingeniously constructed, such as Chester Cricket, Tucker Mouse, and Harry Cat . . . and in a surprise twist, Queen Elizabeth III (I guess that would be the next Queen Elizabeth, since Queen Elizabeth II died in 2022)! I loved how Chester's signing was represented by an operatic rendition of "Figaro," and instead of returning to the countryside at the end, Chester is singing at the Palace of Versailles! (Versailles is in France, of course, and I guess Queen Elizabeth III is queen of Great Britain, but we'll let that slide . . . ). An entertaining, inventive, and crafty retelling of the story!

The Wild Side Of Me Chapter 15

Everything was dark but he could hear some noises, coming out from somewhere. But where exactly? Consciousness start coming back to him. Tolys slowly opened his eyes, to only see that he was in a unknown room and in front of him a console with some different buttons. "Where the hell am I? And where is Alfred?" thought the Lithuanian. "Alfred? Are you in here? Can you hear me? Alfred!" he shout it, but he gained no response. Just as he decided to try and get up, he realized that he couldn’t move. He looked around to see his hands chained up to some pillars. "No, no. This isn’t good." thought the Lithuanian as he started to struggle, in hope that he could break free by using his werewolf strength. "It isn’t working. Perhaps I should turn into my werewolf form and try again." he thought. The smoke surrounded the man as he tried transforming. When the smoke disappeared, he noticed that he was still in his human form. "Huh? I didn’t turn? What the hell is going on?" thought the man in frustration. Suddenly, he heard the sound of footsteps. He looked up and saw a familiar face. It was Gilbert. But he was wearing the Unnatural Beast Hunters uniform? Tolys smiled as he saw his friend:"Gilbert, thanks goodness is you. I really could use some help right now. For some weird reason my transformation isn’t working." The smile disappeared from the Lithuanian’s face when he noticed his friend having a really mischievous grin on his face. It almost looked like… the grin the shadowy figure from his nightmare had. "Gilbert? What’s up with that smile?" asked Tolys all concerned. "Oh is nothing. Is just that everything goes according to plan." answered the German. Tolys’s eyes widened:"A…according to plan? What are you talking about? I don’t understand." Then a laugh came out of Gilbert’s mouth:"Oh Tolys, you didn’t realize it yet? I am not here to help you out. Is actually quite the opposite." "Wait, so you want to tell me that…" said Tolys as his voice start it breaking. The German man noded:"That’s right. I’ve betrayed you. To be honest I’ve never been your friend in the first place. I mean, why the awesome me would even be friends with someone as pitiful like you? Oh and as for on why you can’t transform, is because those chains enables it for you." Tears dropped down from Tolys’s eyes:"So all those times, even before I was bitten by that werewolf, you were pretending?" "What by 'I never was your friend' you don’t understand?" asked Gilbert. More tears came out from the werewolf’s eyes:"I can’t believe this. All this time I thought we were friends. And I trusted you. And yet you backstabbed me and spilled my secret to people who hunts for the ones like me." Then two others hunters came in the room, both were wearing their masks. "I see the subject is awake." said the man. Gilbert looked at them. "Oh, did we interrupt your conversation?" asked the lady. He laughed:"No worries, me and my 'friend' are done talking anyway." Anger came over Tolys. "I am not your friend, traitor. So don’t you dare call me that ever again. My only true friends, those who truly likes me are part of the group, that you will be excluded from once they find out about what you did." said the Lithuanian as his eyes became his werewolf eyes. Gilbert leaned up to him:"Oh really? If they’re really your friends then did you tell them about your secret?" Tolys made a surprised face, his eyes turning back to his normal ones. "Thoughts so. But don’t worry. They will find out very soon. Once we’ll broadcast all the materials with proofs that you are a werewolf indeed, including showing that you’re being kept imprisoned, all world will know about you." explained Gilbert. "No, no! Please don't!" begged Tolys as once again he tried to break free. "And who’s gonna stop us? Your pathetic boyfriend?" asked Gilbert. "Alfred, what did you do to him?" asked Tolys. If not the restrains, he would probably be already grasping at Gilbert’s throat. "Don’t worry. He’s alright. Well he’ve put a bit of a fight as we were taking you away. So we had to knock him out." Tolys growled at him.

Meanwhile, Alfred woke up in a bed, and first thing that came into his mind was his boyfriend. But he wasn’t anywhere near to be found. "Oh no, those bastards… They’ve probably taken him. I need to find and save him." thought the American. He looked around:"But first, where exactly am I? This isn’t my house." He heard the noise of a door opening. Two familiar figures appeared in them. "Feliks? Alice?" escaped Alfred’s house. "Oh, you’re finally awake. Thanks goodness you’re alright." said Alice. The American run up to them and tightly hugged them:"Oh, is so good to see you two." He let go of them:"But what exactly happened? How did you find me? And where is Tolys? Is he in here somewhere?" Both looked at him with confused looks:"Tolys wasn’t any near by when we found you. We were on a walk, in the local park. We wanted to get some fresh air and we thought we could have a walk in here. And just as we were walking, we saw you laying on the ground unconscious. So, we took you to our house." explained Alice. Sad look appeared on Alfred’s face. "Bro, what exactly happened?" asked Feliks. "Guys listen, there is something I need to tell you about Tolys." said the American. "Okay, but let’s go down first. Roderich and Audrey are here as well. When we told them that we find you unconscious, they immediately decided to come." said the Polish lady. Then they went downstairs to the salon, where Audrey and Roderich were already sitting on the couch, drinking tea and watching TV. Just as they noticed Alfred was awake, Audrey was the first to get up and run up to him:"Alfred, I’m so glad to see you that you’re alright." "I wouldn’t say that I’m fully alright." answered the American. Shock appeared on everyone’s faces. "What are you talking about?" asked Roderich. "Listen, there is something I need to tell you about Tolys. You might be surprised at first and not believe it at the beginning, but is true. Listen clearly, Tolys is a wer…" he start it explaining when suddenly he was interrupted by the sound from the TV. A broadcast was being transmitted. There was Gilbert and two other people. "Gilbert? What is he doing on the TV?" asked Audrey. "Oh no" thought Alfred. "Hello fellow citizens. We are the Unnatural Beast Hunters and we got a very important message for you." began the German. Then he stepped aside revealing another person behind them. It was Tolys, but he was chained up to some pillars. Gasps escaped from everyone’s mouths. "Tolys? But why he is chained up like that? Aren’t he and Gil like totally friends?" asked Feliks. "You may wonder, why do we keep a 'simple' man captive. And here we come with an explanation. This man isn't exactly a human. He is a werewolf." Alfred looked at his boyfriend. The look on his face, it broke Alfred’s heart. There was nothing but a mix of sadness and discomfort. "Wow, hold up. Tolys’s a werewolf?" asked Alice. "And if you don’t believe it, here’s some of the evidence, to prove that all of this is true." said Gilbert and after that a video where Tolys was turning into his werewolf form was shown. Alfred recognize that moment, it was when they were fighting against the hunters. Everyone watched, surprised looks not leaving their faces. After all the materials were shown, Gilbert start it talking again:"As you can see, we’re telling the truth. And if anything, we did you a big favor by capturing this beast." Alfred let out a grunt:"This traitor, I knew he couldn’t be trusted." Then he looked at Tolys again. Tears were dropping down his eyes. "Don’t worry my love. I’ll be getting you out of there soon. That’s a promise." thought the American.

Once the broadcast was over, Tolys let his head down in defeat. Gilbert came up to him:"Oh, don't be sad. At least now you’re friends knows the truth." "I didn’t want them to learn about it like this. It should’ve been me who tells them. It should be done by my own choice. You… you took that away from me." answered Tolys with regret in his voice. "Oh but I only did you a favor. Like a good 'friend' would do." said the German. "Friend?! I already told you, you are not my friend! A real friend would never betray another friend and spill their secrets like that. A friend would never take away the choice from their friend and tell about something they are not ready to talk about or are getting ready to talk about. And one more thing, a real friend would actually care about their friends feelings. Not only you don’t care about my feelings but you pretty much ruined my life!" shout it the Lithuanian. Then he received a slap across the face. "Better learn your place. After all, you’re the one who’s the prisoner in here." said Gilbert. Then he grabbed the imprisoned man by the hair, forcing him to look up at him:"But you know what? You’re right. I don't care about your feelings. I don't care about you at all." Then he let go of him. "So, can we start our experiments?" asked the lady. A gasp escaped the Lithuanian’s mouth:"Wha…what are you talking about? What are you going to be doing to me?" "Ah, right. I think I forgot to tell you about this. After we capture a creature, we run some experiments on them. We take looks on their DNA and examine their whole structure. You shouldn't worry, is not something that hurts as long as you're being cooperative with us." explained Gilbert. "Pfff… And what if I don’t wanna cooperate?" asked Tolys. Gilbert looked at him with a pretty scary look:"I don't think you want to find out." A small chuckle escaped the Lithuanian's mouth:"Of course. You torture those creatures to force them into working with you willingly, am I right? I mean, what else could you possibly do? There’s absolutely no way you would ever look at us as living beings who have feelings and minds of their own. To you, we are only dangerous beasts. Creatures that should be captured and locked up at all cost. But let me tell you something. Not all creatures are dangerous. Some of us used to be humans before an accident happened and we became what we are today. And some of us were born as those creatures but are not savage bloodthirsty beasts like you say. Every single one of us, has to hide who we really are everyday, because we fear not only the fact we won’t be accepted but also the fact the likes of you will hunt us down." Another slap across the face. "What did he said?" asked the man. "Don’t worry about it. Ummm… before we begin, would you mind leaving me and him alone for a bit?" asked the German. "Of course." answered the lady and the two hunters left.

"I can't believe this! This whole time Tolys was a werewolf and you knew about this, along with Gilbert and none of you said a single word about this?" asked Alice. "I know you guys are upset, but let me explain. Tolys wanted to tell you all of this personally. But he was afraid you might not accept him after he reveals this to all of you. And finally when he made the decision to tell you, this asshole Gilbert decided to betray his trust and turn him over to the Unnatural Beasts Hunters. Not only that, now it turns out he was a part of them all along. And…" Alfred paused for a moment. "Damn it! I knew Gilbert couldn’t be trusted. I had a feeling that there’s something suspicious about him. And now my boyfriend is locked up somewhere in their base and I didn’t manage to prevent it happening, even thought I promised to protect him at all cost. So good boyfriend am I, huh?" said the American as tears dropped down his eyes. Audrey hugged him:"Is alright Alfred. We’ll find a way to save him. We won't leave him hanging like this." Alfred looked at her:"Wait, did you say 'We'?" Alice smiled:"Of course. Tolys is our friend. And it doesn’t matter if he is a human or a werewolf. He’s still the same person." "We like totally won't let those assholes get away with all of this. Especially Gilbert." said Feliks. "So, you still like Tolys, despite the fact he’s a werewolf?" asked Alfred. "We obviously already gave you the answer." said Roderich a bit sarcastically. "Yes. The answer’s 'Yes'." said the French woman. Alfred hugged all of them:"Oh guys. If Tolys was here, he would probably be very happy right now to hear your words. Speaking of which, we need a plan to break him out of there." Then they all got together and start working on their plan. Some days passed. The hunters started their experiments. Tolys really didn’t want to cooperate with them. But on the same time there wasn't much he could do. No matter how much he protested, they still have gotten their way at the end. They didn't hurt him though. Not yet at least. "What is going on? They haven’t hurt me yet. What are they plotting?" thought the werewolf as he took a look around his surroundings. "If only the console would be closer and I could reach it. I bet there is a button that unlocks the chains." he thought.

Suddenly the door opened. It was Gilbert and some other hunters along him. "Good morning. Have you slept well?" asked Gil. "Spare me those questions. You know very well that I didn’t. Not to mention, you’re taking the enjoyment in all of this and you know that." answered Tolys. "Well, can't say you’re wrong." shrugged the German man. Tolys gave him a furious look. "Now, now. Don’t make that face. We only came here for another DNA sample. This time we’re gonna need your saliva." said Gilbert. Just as one of the hunters came closer to take the DNA sample, Tolys start it turning his head away and didn’t dare open his mouth. Suddenly Gilbert grabbed him by the hair, making him stop turning away, and the other hunter forced him to open his mouth, taking some of the saliva with an ear stick. Once it was all done, Tolys bit the hunter in self defense. "Ah shit! He bit me!" shout it the hunter. Gilbert came up to him:"Don't worry. He bit you in his human form, so you won’t be turning into a werewolf." Then he looked at Tolys:"That’s it. We tried to be nice and give you a chance, but you left us no other choice." Then he looked at the other hunters:"Do it." Then one of them left the room for a moment, only to come back with a dog muzzle. Fear appeared on Tolys’s face:"No! Don’t! Please no!" "Should've thought before doing something reckless." said Gilbert. Tolys protested a lot, as the hunters tried to put the muzzle on. In the end, they managed to get it on. Once the small injury was taken care of, all hunters left and only Gilbert stayed. "Looks like it will take us some time before we finish taking all necessary DNA samples from you." he said. Despite wearing a muzzle on, a chuckle escaped Tolys’s mouth:"Good. If I can make the work harder for you by protesting, so be it. Even at the cost of wearing a dog muzzle." "Yeah, I figured that out. But don't worry. I have a way to make the work easier for us." said the German and came up to the console. Confusion appeared on the Lithuanian’s face. He pressed a button. A few seconds passed, and Tolys start to feel pain. Yet it felt familiar. "Ugh…What… what are you doing to me?" he asked. "Curious, aren’t we? You see, those chains not only suppress your ability to transform. They can also consume your energy, similar to when you hold back your transformation on a full moon." explained Gilbert and then start it leaving. "Wait…Please don’t… Come back…"begged Tolys, as he tried to deal with the pain. "Don't worry. Everything will go smoothly, after we take away all of your energy for protesting. Then we shall complete our research." said Gilbert and left Tolys all alone.
