Chapter 8: Let's make a deal (part 1)



"Are you sure we can do this miss Nighttime?" said a man kneeling with an owl on his shoulder in front of a hooded woman who was sitting in front of a large table with a tea mug on top of it "If we proceeded with the plan, we may lose everything. The kid isn't to be trusted"

"Don't worry about it, Owl" replied Nighttime while turning around in her chair "Just send in Tarantula, he can convince him"

"But what if he couldn't?" argued Owl, he seemed genuinely worried despite the mask covering half his face "He might scare the kid with his...methods"

"Spider has the most success rate in all our negotiating agents. He might have a weird figure due to his powers but he has a great heart" replied Nighttime while taking a sip of the mug

"As you wish, miss Nighttime" Owl said as he stood up and started walking towards the door

"Oh! And please treat the kid like a normal kid, not a threat. Remove the ropes and head cover. He's just a child" Nighttime said quickly before Owl could leave

"Your wish is my command, miss Nighttime" Owl said as he closed the door behind him

As Aries started regaining consciousness, he found himself tied to a chair with a bag on his head. He started wiggling a till he fell with the chair, but before he could do anything he heard a door open and footsteps coming towards him, familiar footsteps. He immediately felt the binds on his hands and legs starting to get loose, so he started wiggling desperately trying to free himself.

"Calm down, little fella. I'm just here to take these off. I'm not going to harm you" Aries heard the man say. He knew he couldn't trust that man, but he chose to comply considering he can do nothing. A couple of seconds later the man pulled the bag off Aries's head to reveal a large white well-lit room, and the figure of the man squatting in front of him who was none other than Owl. Owl was wearing the same dark outfit he was wearing when he kidnapped Aries from the hospital, but the dark aura which was surrounding him was not there this time.

"Who are you? And what do you want with me?" Aries asked warily, he was mentally prepared to summon a knife and stab the man in front of him if necessary.

"That's not for me to answer. Another agent would do the talking" Owl responded right before the doors to the room opened. "Right on time. I'll head out for you to negotiate peacefully" he then walked out the door before another large figure appeared.

"Thank you, Owl. I'll take it from here" The figure said, the next moment two spider-like legs stuck on the wall followed by a man wearing a formal work suit entering the room, he was wearing a mask in the shape of a spider's fangs covering the lower half of his face and white gloves. He was a normal human other than the four spider legs he has on his back. He walked towards Aries with his four spider legs instead of his normal legs while holding a large brown suitcase. When he was close enough to Aries, he extended his hand for a handshake. "Aries Blackstone, I presume. You can call me Spider. I will be your lawyer and guide from now on"

Aries returned the handshake warily before replying "So, Mr. Spider. What do you want from me? And where in the world am I?" Aries said while looking around

"You are currently on planet Craatania, specifically in the base of the Nighttime guild. And we…. took you because we found great potential in you. Are you familiar with a term called 'Limit release' Perchance?" Spider said as he made his spider legs into a chair he sat on

"Limit release? What is that about?" Aries said wondering

Spider then grinned while opening the suitcase in his hand "I think it would be better to show you"
