Time seemed to just drag on and on.
"*Yawwwwwwn* Maybe I'll just close my eyes for a little bit..." Cailin groggily said.

Suddenly a large shock fills the device.
Dr, Pharall suspected there was a traitor in his midst.
And that it had something to do with his missing mutagen formula.
So he'd been modifying his tech to combat any possible outcome.
Take for instance: the doctor's tech absorbing nanobots.
Each one was pain-stakingly embedded with a little diode.
Alone?
No more than a joy buzzer from a gag shop.
Together?
Enough concentrated electricity to zap an elephant to death.
And to melt the slimy manipulator to vapor as soon as conscious "nerve" activity stopped.
Now there was nothing but a computer where the slime sat.
