"My people are dead. Every last one of them controlled used and killed. Thrown out like trash. I don't know if he's an experiment. Like I said I did know this would happen. If I had known I wouldn't have done." Ryder looked out the window. "But one thing that you do need, is to get it together. You have a boyfriend to save."
He wiped away tears and gently shifted so that Nick was in his lap and the computer was in front of them "and this tells us how to get it out of him?" He asked, facing Ryder again, tempted to shove Ryder out the window but knew he'd probably come back or not die some way.
"Well, there is another day which is how you get it out of him. Now you know what's growing inside him." Ryder sighed. "My knowledge goes no further after that."
Jas nodded and shut his eyes momentarily, needing to calm his nerves and powers down a bit. "I hate you, whatever that's worth." he opened his eyes and glared at the screen, watching as the pair came on screen again. he clutched Nick close, stroking his hair and resting a hand on his stomach beneath his shirt, needing to feel his warm and skin.
Nick had cried himself to sleep. He wasn’t even listening to the conversation.
“Heyo~. We’re back. We figured out a way to break the vines. So the vines are basically like cages. It’s protecting the body and organs. But it’s only going to expand. Thus, exploding the body. Now, we predicted that that person has about 20-25 days. This growth is very slow. Back on topic. So, these vines are basically plants. You use whatever you would use to kill plants through this will end in the person dying. Plant chemicals don’t go well with humans. So, you can either rip it out of the body. But. I think you know how that will end. Death. You have to find someone with a decaying power. Then they can internally destroy the plant. This has a 5% chance of working. The other 95% results in death. Is that all Ray?” He turned back.
“Yeah, I believe so. Oh! People with these powers might not want to help you or can hurt you more because they can have more than one power.” Ray commented. “Anyway, see ya later!”
The video ended.
Jas took a deep, controlled breath and shut his eyes "fantastic~" he growled, pressing his hands to his hand and rubbing his eyes tiredly. He looked down at Nick's sleeping form and sighed softly, pressing a gentle kiss to his head. "You don't deserve this, my love. Not you, such a beautiful person." he kissed his lips and gently pulled away, tucking the pillow to replace the missing warm, next to Nick.
He glared over to Ryder before pulling out his phone and making a few calls to Immortals he knew, hoping at least one of them knew of a Decayer.
Ryder threw his hands up in defense.
Nick has stayed quiet. Everything he heard was breaking him. The more impossible it seemed, the more he wanted to give up. “I’ll be okay right? I won’t die right?”
