Clover: "Right, let's do this!" Clover and Sam nod to each other before taking off in opposite directions once again, determined to find the elusive villain. Alex hesitates for a moment longer before flying after them, not wanting to be left behind. As they search high and low through the city, their eyes darting across the skyline, they begin to wonder if they'll ever manage to bring Mike down.

After what feels like hours of searching, Clover spots something glinting in the distance. "

"Oh my gosh!" Clover exclaims as she sees the villain up ahead. "Alex! Sam! Over here!" She flies over to join her friends, who are flying toward her as well. Together, they form a triangle around the tower, blocking Mike's escape routes. "So, what do we do now?" Clover asks nervously.

Sam glances at Alex before responding. "Well, since he's disabling our jetpacks and making it hard for us to keep up...

"Well, that clears that up," Sam says with a hint of sarcasm. "Looks like we have some more digging to do."

We're doing fine thanks for asking

I think I'm ready for this," she whispers shakily before pressing the tip of herself against him. Alex watches them intently, enjoying the sight of their growing attraction to one another. She glances over at Monkis, who smiles encouragingly back at her.

Monkis reaches out, running his fingers through Clover's hair as she begins to sink down onto him. He groans with pleasure as she takes more of him inside herself, arching his back and thrusting deeper into her wet heat. "

Oh... God..." Clover moans, feeling overwhelmed by the sensations coursing through her body. Her head falls back against Sam's shoulder as she begins to move in time with Monkis's thrusts.

Sam bites her lip, trying to fight off the growing desire she feels for both of them. She looks at Alex, their eyes meeting for a moment before glancing away again, unable to face the intensity of those green irises. "How about you, Alex?"

"No! Samantha, stop!" Alex wails, struggling against the unyielding hold that has taken over her once dear friend.

Samantha's eyes glaze over, all light extinguished from their familiar depths. With a sudden jerk of her wrist, she forces the vial past Alex's lips, making sure every drop of the writhing parasite enters her body.

"Alex...?"* She mouths the name, a fleeting flicker of recognition before the parasite's influence takes full hold.*

Alex convulses violently as the parasite invades her system, its influence spreading rapidly through her veins. Her screams turn to guttural moans as it begins to rewire her brain, twisting her desires and obliterating her sense of self.

"Noooo..." Her voice breaks off into a strangled cry as the pain reaches unbearable levels. Samantha watches impassively, held fast by the parasite's will.

"Now you understand," Jannik gloats, his eyes alight with cruel satisfaction. "The sweet agony of submission."

"Ahhhn! Nooo!" Samantha cries out as his fingers brush against her most intimate area, the taboo pleasure already coursing through her veins. Tears well up in her eyes as she realizes resistance is futile, her body betraying every promise of defiance. "Don't make me do this, please..."

Samantha shakes her head vigorously, still clinging desperately to the tattered remains of her self-control. "I won't! You can't make me!" She grits her teeth, steeling herself against the insidious temptation creeping through her nerves.
