Ben 10 Porn Story: The Null King and I – Chapter 3
I arrived just fifteen
minutes before curfew. The house was dark but my father had the
fireplace going in the den. I peered in the doorway and saw his face
glowing orange in the light. He smiled when he saw me, his moustache
wiggling.
Maybelle, where have
you been? he asked as he stretched out his arms for a hug. I ran
into him and wrapped my arms around his neck. I didnt know whether
I should lie or tell the truth.
The Null King wanted
to see me, papa, I said suddenly as I pulled away to see his face.
He remained calm and listened. A soldier took me there and the
Null King asked about my research paper I did a month ago.
Why? he asked me.
I dont know but
he wanted to know more about Dr. Animo, the guy that I cited in my
paper, remember?
Oh, yeah I do, he
scratched his chin, Thats weird. Ill have to let the others
know, he said as he got up and headed for the phone. He meant
others as in the Resistance against the oppressors, the Null
King and his army.
He wants me to come
back tomorrow after school so I can read some of Dr. Animos
papers, I told my dad as I followed behind him.
He dialed a number on
the phone as I sat in the wooden chair beside the phone. He waited
silently until someone answered and he repeated my story as he ran
his hands through his short brown hair.
Alright, Ill do
that then. Thanks Max, my father said before hanging up. He turned
to me with a serious look on his face, Max thinks this might be an
opportunity to learn DVoids weaknesses. Im going to give you
my plumber badge that will allow us to track you. It may be too
dangerous to bug you with a mike so Im going to trust what you say
is the truth.
Ill do my best,
dad, I told him.
Here, keep it safe,
he said as he pulled his black and green badge from his pocket and
handed it to me. I held it in my hand for a moment with a smile
before pocketing it in my jacket. It also identifies you as a
Plumber.
Thanks dad! I
exclaimed as I hugged him around his waist.
I could not sleep. I
held the badge tight to my chest, excited about being dubbed a
Plumber like my dad. I began to imagine how it would go tomorrow. How
did DVoid get a hold of Dr. Animos papers? Maybe he was
interested in him too, like I am. I would love to meet Dr. Animo and
talk to him, ask him wheres hes been all this time, what hes
been doing. Its like he disappeared shortly after he lost the
award but that wasnt entirely true. He was arrested several times,
one for armed robbery, charged by the man who won the Verities Award
and the others were for breaking out of jail. Dr. Animo must be a
vengeful man to have gone after Dr. Kelly repeatedly. I dont blame
him. If I was in the same position, I would go after them too. Dr.
Animo and I are a lot alike.
