The Babies Within
by Melvin L. Freeman Jr.
One day in Colorado lived a married couple. The husband's name was Lucas Johnson. His wife's name was Mindy Johnson. They lived in a mansion. Lucas was a cartoonist, and brought home well over one thousand dollars. Mindy was a therapist and a rhythm & blues artist. Mindy brought home over twenty thousand dollars. One day Lucas asked Mindy," Where do you want to go on vacation?" Mindy thought for a moment and said,"How about we go to Mexico?" Lucas nodded his head and said,"Mexico, huh? Ok, I have never been there. We leave tomorrow. "The next day Lucas and Mindy packed their belongings and headed toward the airport. They got their tickets and boarded the plane.
Once on the plane, Mindy leaned over toward Lucas and said, "Babe, I have never flown in an airplane before. I am really scared." Lucas said, "Don't worry about it. It is just a little turbulence. Try and get some sleep." Mindy said,"Sleeping sounds good right now. What a good idea." As Mindy slept, two ghosts visited her. Mindy said," Who is there?" Soon the place was very bright and a voice rang out, "Behold, I am Noah Realyearie. Please, don't be afraid of me. I am not here to hurt you. I am here to warn you about the future. You and Lucas will bear two children. Their names will be Warren and Debra."
After Mindy saw the bright light she said in disbelief," What weird names. I don't get scared that easily." "You snuck up on me and startled me. Then you tell me that we will have two children. Ok, thanks for telling me that, anything else?" Noah said, "Yes, one of your unborn will try and murder you and Lucas." Very disturbed Mindy said, "What? Why? When and where? How do I know Lucas didn't put you up to this?" Noah said, "Your answers will come in due time. You and Lucas should get ready for things to occur in the future. Make sure your love stays true and believe in him so in return he will believe in you." Mindy nodded her head and said,"Ok. How do I get back to the plane?" Noah said, "That's easy all you have to do is open that door behind you. Your body is waiting." Mindy thanked Noah again and went toward the door.
Before she could get to the door, she felt something on her shoulder. Mindy woke up confused. Lucas said," Oh, she lives and what a beautiful sight." Mindy said, "Is that you Noah?" Lucas said, "No, you must have hit your head. Remember Lucas, your husband, the guy you have known since the sixth grade and promised we would always be together no matter what? "Mindy said, "Oh, Lucas I could never forget you." Lucas said, "You still haven't told me who Noah is?" Mindy said, "I'll tell you when I get out the restroom." Lucas got up and Mindy headed toward the restroom. Mindy said, "I'll be back." Mindy got to the restroom and began to doze off. Three hours later, Mindy was awakened by a familiar noise.
Mindy sat up, got off the ground, and was wondering if she was still on the plane, or if she was freaking out as she saw a black limo with red spots on it approach her. It stopped right in front of her and a tall person stepped out. The tall man walked over to Mindy, and introduced himself to her. "Hi, my name is Kamane Realyearie. I am Noah's half brother." Mindy asked, "Why am I here? Noah already told me that I was going to have two children." Kemane said, "William and Debra. I know, I heard when you were talking to Noah. What Noah did not tell you is one day you will have to make a painful decision on which child you would like to keep." Kemane turned around and Mindy grabbed him by the arm. Like magic, Mindy's belly became gigantic. Mindy said, "I'm sorry, please explain yourself." Kemane said," All in due time Mindy. You will know good from evil. Have faith." Kemane jumped in his black limo with red poke a dot and took off.
When Mindy woke up she heard banging on the airplane restroom door, and a familiar voice. Lucas said, "You ok in there, baby?" Mindy said, "Yes, Lucas I am fine." Thirty seconds later Mindy came out, and returned to her seat. Lucas looked at Mindy, and said shockingly, "Baby, not to sound rude or anything, but why your stomach is so huge?" Mindy said, "Lucas, I don't know what to tell you. Right now it's a miracle or some sort of curse! All I know is in nine months we will be prepared for two babies."
Lucas said, "I need a drink." The seatbelt sign came on and Lucas buzzed the flight attendant. She quickly came right over. Lucas looked at her nametag. It read 'Emany'. Lucas said, "Ms. Emany, can I get a beer please?" Emany said, "Of course coming right up. Miss, would you like anything to drink?" Mindy said, "Some water, apple, or orange juice will do just fine." Emany said, "Right away. Be prepared we will be landing shortly." Then she walked away to get their beverages.
When then plane landed, Lucas and Mindy went to get their thing things. When they got their luggage, Mindy buckled over. Lucas hurried to her side and asked, "Mindy, are you feeling alright?" Mindy said, "I don't know. Our babies just got to get used to the weather." Lucas said, "You want me to take the luggage to a rent a car?" Mindy said, "Yeah, I am going to just sit here while you register the car and pull it up." Lucas came around the corner with a brand new car. Lucas said, "This is all they had left." Mindy looked at the car in shock and said, "I don't care if that is the only one they had left I just want to get to the hotel." Lucas jumped out of the car and said, "Ok honey; let me help you into the car." Lucas put Mindy in the car and then put their luggage in the trunk and headed for the hotel. They drove for about five hours until they ran into a big hotel sign that read Los Freemo ten more miles. Lucas looked over at Mindy but she was sleeping. Lucas wondered how she could sleep through all this heat.
Mindy started to dream a peaceful dream about what her babies
where going to look like. All of a sudden, Mindy heard a familiar noise coming from behind her. She thought to herself, "Not again. I've been through this already it is Luca's turn." The car stopped right in front of her and the back window rolled down. Kemane said, "Your labor is taking too long I am here to speed it up." Mindy said, "They are my babies and my body." Kemane looked at her and she buckled over. Mindy said, "It was you who impregnated me but why?" Kemane said, "Yes, it was me all I needed you to do is to touch me. You see I am like a virus. Once you touch me I infect your whole body." Mindy looked at Kemane said, "What if I don't let you?" Kemane said, "You have no choice." Kemane reached out to Mindy's stomach Mindy tried to inch away but Kemane's arm just kept extending until it touched her stomach. Then the car drove off and Mindy woke up.
Lucas looked at Mindy and said, "Baby, you ok. You keep saying Kemane this and that. Who is Kemane?" Mindy said, "Picture this Lucas, I went to sleep thinking everything was fine and dandy, but while I was sleeping, I was swept away to another dimension. When I woke up I met two ghosts that tried to explain to me that I was going to have two children. The first one was shiny, his name was Noah. He was a kind ghost. Noah warned me about Kemane. Noah also told me our children's' names. The second ghost as you know by now is Kemane. He showed up in a red poke a dot and black limo. He told me I would have to make a heart felt decision. He said we would have to sacrifice one of our children to be happy.
He also told me he is like a virus everyone he touches dies. Lucas, Kemane's the one who impregnated me, he just put his hand on my belly and it blew up." Lucas pulled the car over and looked at Mindy with his mouth open. Minutes passed before Lucas said a word. Lucas said, "If Kemane touched your belly then doesn't that mean you will die too?" Mindy said, "I don't know. That is a good question." Lucas put the key back in the ignition and started the car.
Lucas drove forty-five minutes until he came to a sign that read 'Los Freemo next exit.' Lucas could not help but to think of what Mindy had told him. Mindy said, "Lucas, you want me to drive? You are about to miss the exit!" Lucas turned off the road and went on the exit ramp. Lucas said, "Mindy, remember you can't drive you are pregnant." Mindy said, "Yes, I remember they are not in you. They are in me. I am the one who is carrying them!" Lucas drove a little further until he came upon a man in a hundred yard garden. Lucas yelled, "You there in the field, can you tell us where Los Freemo is located?" The man stopped what he was doing and came over to the car and said, "The name is Fredrick Wilkins. Los Freemo is five minutes north of here. I've got to go back there for something.
"Do you mind giving me a ride?" Lucas and Mindy talked it over and Mindy said, "Can we call you Fred? My husband and I talked it over, and as you can see I am pregnant. So as long as you don't startle me we will give you a ride. Hop in." Fred said, "Thank you ma'am." Then Lucas, Mindy, Fred pulled off the field to the Los Freemo.
Lucas drove up to a gas station and asked Fred to come in with him. Lucas asked Fred, "Fred, how long have you been worked at Los Freemo? Fred said, "I've been working at Los Freemo for fourteen years. I live here in Mexico." Lucas said, "So you've got a family?" Fred said, "Yeah, I have a son and a daughter. My sons name is Bert. My daughters name is Jasmine."
Lucas said, "Nice names. So what happened to your wife?" Fred said, "I don't want to talk about her. She is behind me now." Lucas looked puzzled. Fred picked up three bags of chips and a twenty-four pack of root beer. Fred said, "Lucas, you can go back to the car I can pay for the stuff and meet you at the car." Lucas asked, "Are you sure? We can go half and half." Fred said, "The least you can do is let me pay for your gas and your refreshments for the road. All I ask in return is a big portrait of my family and me. So I can hang it on the wall." Lucas nodded and headed out the door. Fred approached the counter where a tall woman by the name of Maria Rolla was sitting. He placed the twenty-four pack of root beer and the three bags of chips on the counter. Maria started to ring it up. Shortly after Maria said, "Your total is sixteen dollars and ninety- nine cents." Fred looked at her and gave her thirty and told her to keep the change and headed for the car.
Lucas drove five minutes until he approached a bridge with a one hundred and fifty yard field of flowers, and in the in the middle of the field stood Los Freemo. The hotel was sixty stories high. There were six couples sitting outside. Lucas, Mindy, and Fred got out the limo and headed for the lobby in the hotel. Once three of them were in the lobby, Fred said, "Lucas and Mindy, since you guys gave me a ride up to the hotel. Plus, I paid for your gas, and bought you guys' chips and root beer. Let me pay for your stay here in Los Freemo." Mindy looked at Lucas and asked, "Well, honey what do you think? Should we let Fred pay for our stay?" Lucas said, "Why not, Fred seems like a good guy."
Fred said, "Where do you want me to meet you?" Lucas said, "You see that restaurant to your left, meet us over there." Fred nodded and ran toward the front desk to get the keys for the room. Lucas looked at Mindy and said, "Let us find a seat so you can sit down my dear, sweet Mindy." Mindy nodded. Before they even took one step, the six couples that were outside came rushing up to Mindy introducing themselves to her, and asking her to sing and give them her autograph. Then the six couples looked up and saw Lucas. They started introducing themselves to him as well. Mindy's cell phone rang she picked it up and said, "Hello, this is Mindy. How can I help you?" The voice on the cell said, "Mindy, where are you? This is your manager, Wellstone Peterson. Your fans need you back in Colorado."
Mindy said, "Wellstone, I meant to call you. Lucas and I are in Mexico." Wellstone said, "I am taking the next plane out to Mexico. What hotel are you staying in?" Mindy said, "We are staying at Los Freemo." Wellstone said, "Ok Mindy, I will see you soon."
The first of the six couples to introduce themselves were Kevin and Shannon Jones. Kevin was six foot, ten inches tall. He was a body builder so he always showed off his muscles a lot. He wore a sleeveless shirt and baby blue shorts. His hair was very short. Shannon was five foot, ten inches. She was a hair stylist. She wore t-shirt and blue jean shorts. The second couple to introduce themselves was Charley and Annie Ramsey. Charley was six foot, nine inches tall. He was a fourth grade teacher. He wore a blue t-shirt and dark blue jean shorts. Annie was five foot, nine inches tall. She was a banker. She wore a red jersey and white shorts. The third couple was Steve and Tiffani Washington. Steve and Tiffani came up to Mindy and Lucas sweating and out of breath. Steve was a big movie director. He stood six foot, eight inches tall. He wore a blue shirt with blue shorts and a director's cap. Tiffani was a special agent. She was five foot eight and wore a red bikini with a towel around her waist. The fourth couple to introduce themselves to Mindy and Lucas was Nathan and Amy Williams.
Nathan was a lawyer. He was six foot, seven inches tall. Nathan wore a white t-shirt and blue shorts. Amy was a nanny. She was five foot seven inches tall. Amy wore a t-shirt and green shorts. The fifth couple introduce themselves to Mindy and Lucas was Drew and Josie County. Drew was a professional break-dancer. He was six foot, six inches. Drew wore baggy shorts and a blue baggy shirt. Josie was a computer repairwoman. She was five foot, six inches tall. She wore a tan bikini. The sixth couple to introduce themselves was Damon and Erin Freemo. They were the owners of the hotel. Damon was six foot, six inches tall. Erin was five foot, five inches tall.
Erin asked Mindy, "So, Mrs. Johnson will you sing something for us?" Mindy said, "Mrs. Freemo, I would, but you see I am expecting. Plus, you don't even have a piano." Erin said, "Can't you do it without music? Please, just this one time for us." Mindy said, "No, the best I can do is sign an autograph for all these people and maybe do some counseling on the side." Erin said, "Well, my husband and I need some counseling." Kevin said, "Mindy, my wife and I need counseling too." The Ramsey, Washington, Williams, and Counties all need counseling. Mindy told everyone, "Let me get lemonade first and settle in, then call my room and set up a time to see me." They all departed from the lobby and Mindy and Lucas went to the restaurant to get a bite to eat.
Lucas and Mindy found a table and waited for the waitress. Fred found them with their keys to their rooms. In less then five minutes a waitress came to the table. Jen was the name of the waitress. Mindy ordered a lemonade, and two Mexican pizzas. Lucas ordered a cheeseburger, Cesar salad, and a soda. Ten minutes later Fred walked up to where Mindy and Lucas were sitting and sat down. Fred ordered a chef salad, soda, and a rack of ribs. Jen wrote everything that they had ordered down. Then she raced off to tell Theo, the cook. Fred told Mindy and Lucas, "You guys have the room on the sixtieth floor. Your room is number three. I had to pull some strings to get you guy that room." Lucas said, "We don't even know what it looks like Fred."
Fred went on. "Just picture this honey moon suite. Big closets, a big bed, a big bathroom, big television, free room service, and very spacious. Mindy said, "I believe you but, I just have to see it. After we eat Fred, where is our key to the room?" Fred dug in his pocket and pulled out two keys to their rooms and, handed one to Mindy and the other to Lucas.
After Mindy, Lucas, and Fred were done eating, they headed for the elevator to go to their rooms and settled in for the night. Fred said, "I am on the tenth floor because I have Bert and Jasmine with me." Mindy said, "Don't the people under you get mad when the three of you make noise in the room? What about the guests on both sides of the walls? What do you think they are thinking?" Fred said, "There is no one on the ninth floor. Further, more we are the only ones on the tenth floor." Lucas said, "That's weird. Why didn't you just put us on the ninth floor?" Fred said, "The reason I did not put you on that floor, is because it has plumbing problems. Well, this is my floor. Do you want to come in and see Jasmine and Bert?" Lucas looked at Mindy and said, "First, let us unpack our things and settle in. Then we will come down and introduce ourselves." Fred nodded as the elevator closed.
Outside the Los Freemo, a big dark cloud came in from the south. Also a mysterious light, a bright light came from the west. Mysteriously, the dark cloud formed a man. Kemane said, "Noah, I am tired of living in your shadow. You know I am the most powerful person you know. I hate you and always will." Noah said, "So, you hate being in my shadow huh? I hate cleaning up your messes. Can you try to be cleaner? I don't care if you hate me." Kemane floated up to Fred, Jasmine, and Bert's window. Noah floated behind Kemane.
Kemane opened the window and floated in. then floated right up to Bert's bed and out extended his hand with the spear with bloody blades on both ends and said, "Arise my new pupil. We have a lot of work to do." Bert's eyes flickered, and flipped opened then he sat up, and told the spear with bloody blades on both ends. Then Bert stood next to Kemane. Noah said, "I'm not going to stand for this!" Noah floated over to Jasmine. Jasmine's eyes opened up, she said, "Who are you?" Noah said, "No time for explanation right now. We must hurry up and leave. Here take these two golden swords and this golden shield."
Meanwhile, Fred was approaching the door to cheek on Jasmine and Bert. He was unaware of the arrangement that Kemane and Noah had done. Fred put his hand on the doorknob, and opened the door and saw Bert and Kemane disappear into a cloud of fire by the window. Fred said, "Bert, where are you going? You are supposed to be sleeping." Bert did not answer Fred. Instead Bert threw the spear with bloody blades on both ends at Fred. Noah stepped in, and stopped the spear with bloody blades on both ends just inches away from Fred face. Noah said," This is there father Kemane. You do not kill the hand that fed them. What is wrong with you?" Kemane did not answer instead he just laugh, and lifted his hands and the spear with bloody blades on both ends came right back to Bert. Kemane laughed headed back to the cloud of fire. Fred said, "Thanks for the save, and who are you?" Noah said, "My name will come to you later but now Jasmine and I must go, and gather some people to battle Kemane and Bert to the death." A bright cloud appeared by the window, and Jasmine and Noah went toward the bright cloud. Fred said, "Come back with my kids! Bert, Jasmine Come back!" Fred was looking out the window shocked. Fred looked out the window in disbelief, and he screamed as his knees buckled as he fell on the floor, and started to cry.
Meanwhile, there was a guy in a gray shirt, and blue shorts that had just walked into the lobby, and asked for Mindy. It was Wellstone Peterson. Wellstone Peterson walked up to the front desk in the lobby, read the name tag of the woman who was working there, and asked, "Excuse me Ms. Billie, I'm looking for Mindy Johnson can you tell me what room she is in? I would like a room myself. How much is the rooms?" Wellstone gave a grin. Billie said, "She is on the last floor." Wellstone said, "How many floors do you have?" Billie said with a smile, "There are sixty floors. Have fun." Wellstone hung his head, and asked where the elevator was? Billie pointed behind her, and there was a long line of people waiting. Wellstone asked, "You have any stairs?" She pointed to her left, and Wellstone headed for the stair before he got to the first step he looked back, and yelled back to Billie, "Can you call up there, and tell them I'm on my way?" She nodded and waved him off.
On the sixtieth floor, Mindy and Lucas were talking about something. Mindy said, "Can you believe the size of this room? It is huge!" Lucas looked and said, "It is not that big. We have a flat screen television at home." Lucas opened up the master bedroom door, and saw the huge bed, bathroom, and closet space for Mindy's closes and his. Lucas looked at Mindy and said, "Your right this spot is huge! Fred hooked us up." Mindy said, "Luke, Speaking of Fred, I thought I heard him crying just a few minutes ago can you go check on him?" Lucas said, "Are you sure you will be ok by yourself?" Mindy said, "These babies are not coming any time soon. I will be fine." Lucas kissed his wife and headed out the door.
Mindy's cell phone rang. Teach Me was her ring tone on her cell. Mindy looked at it saw it was Wellstone Peterson, and then pick it up and said, "This is Mindy Johnson. What is your beef?" Wellstone Peterson said, "Mindy, did a lady named 'Billie Gum' from the lobby call you? To tell you I was downstairs in the lobby waiting for the elevator." Mindy said, "No, one has called up here. Lucas just left to check on one of the people who hook us up with the room. Should I be worried?" Wellstone said, "No, nothing to worry about I will try to catch up with Lucas, and later the three of us will do dinner. Ok?" Mindy said, "Cool with me. Where are you?" Wellstone said, "I'm walking up all the stairs because the elevator is occupied." Mindy said, "You are walking up sixty flights of steps?" Wellstone phone went dead. Mindy tried to dial Wellstone cell number again but couldn't get though. Mindy started to go after Lucas.
Wellstone looked at his cell, and shouted, "Mindy, you there I need you to tell Lucas to met me at the thirtieth floor, and help me with my bags." Wellstone had a faint signal in the stairway. Wellstone thought to himself,"Shit now what? " He heard a door open up on a floor, and called out, "Excuse me? I am trying to get to the sixtieth floor. Can you help me out?"
Coming down from the thirtieth floor were Kevin and Shannon Jones arguing about something. Shannon said, "I can not believe that elevator is back up like that. Kevin, what are you going to do about this we are going to be late for are dinner reservation." Kevin said, "Shannon, would you calm down we are not going to be late. We will make it there on time. You do not see me stressing over us taking the stairs, do you?" Shannon said," You're a body builder. You're used to this stuff. I'm a hair stylist. I'm used to dealing with hair not climbing down flight of stairs." Wellstone cleared his throat to get their attention and said," Oh, hi my name is Wellstone Peterson. I am Mindy Johnson's manager. I was wondering if you two could help me find her, and help me with my luggage." Kevin and Shannon both looked at each, and smile thinking this could be are big break. Kevin grabbed Wellstone Peterson's bags, and said," My wife and I will be glad to help you find Ms. Johnson. What floor is she on?" Wellstone shrugged tried to use his cell, and couldn't get threw. Wellstone threw his cell down to the floor and said, "Stupid technology. I hate my cell. What are your names? Do any of you have a cell?" Shannon said," My name is Shannon Jones. This is my husband Kevin. Why doesn't yours work mine does?" Kevin looked at Shannon like she lost her mind. Kevin said, "Don't be rude baby. Maybe he forgot to charge his battery up before he left." Shannon said, "What ever you say Kev. You don't even know this guy, but you're sticking up for him." Kevin said, "Shannon, not now! We have to help Wellstone find Ms. Johnson. Now give him your cell." Kevin, Shannon, and Wellstone were only on the twelfth floor. Shannon handed over the cell to Wellstone, and Wellstone placed the call to Mindy's cell phone.
Meanwhile, on the sixtieth floor, Mindy was in the hallway looking for Lucas when her cell rang. Mindy looked at her cell, and it read 'S Jones' and she picked it up and said," Shannon, how can I help you?" Wellstone said, "Mindy, its Wellstone Peterson, your manager calling again. My cell doesn't work in the stairway. That is why I am calling you from Ms. Jones cell. I have a lot of great new to tell you. I know you are on vacation and all, but I went and booked a show at this hotel called Los Freemo to promote your new cd, and do a concert. Is that cool with you?" Mindy said, "When is all this going to happen, and how much will we be getting paid or is this for charity?" Wellstone said, "To answer your second question first depending on the crowd we might go on tour after the promoting your new cd that comes out in nine weeks. Now the first question it happens to be tomorrow. Ill tell you more about it when we are face to face. You guys are still on the sixtieth floor right?" Mindy said, "Yeah, what floor are you on? The elevator is busy. So I take it your taking the stairs." Wellstone said, "It will give me more time to know the Jones. See you when I get there. Try and stay calm." They hung up the cells, and Wellstone handed the cell back to Shannon and Mindy went to find Lucas.
Lucas was down the hallway pressing the button for the elevator, when his cell I need a girl part two was his ring tone. It was Charles Baxter, his boss and he sounded pissed off. Baxter said," Hey, Lucas how is the drawing coming along?" Lucas said," It is going pretty good. I'm about to be at father to Charles." Baxter said," That great Lucas! Lucas we have a problem. I just received a letter from Robert F. Coaltrane, from The Bobcat Publishing Company. The letter read;
Mr. Charles Baxter,

Director
Lucas said," I appreciate the publishing company loves my work, what I don't appreciate is them giving me a time limit on my comics. I have two babies coming soon and the publishing company throws this on. Then gives me a dead line. " Baxter said," First, I understand your wife is about to have two children on the way. Congratulations are in order you should be happy. You are about to be a father. Not to rain on you cereal but you should of got ten comics to me at least. Second, I'm pissed at you and the publishing company. You're supposed to keep up with the other artists. You're the best. I need you to act like it. Step your skills up a little. It is May 1, 2055. You have a month and a half to draw something and pitch it to me. If I don't like it you will be fire. Alright?" Lucas said, "Thank for your congrats. You want me to draw one big comic or ten big comics? You should be pissed at the publishing company even though there the best in the world we go with the cream of the crop. I'll try to grid out my hardest to meet their deadline. If I don't I'll leave. Do we have a deal?" Baxter said, "I want you to write and draw a masterpiece. We got a deal. Keep me posted on everything you draw. " Lucas said, "Cool Baxter I will." Then they hung up. Lucas mind just race with idea as he hung up the phone with his boss. First, he pulled out his trusty pen was going for his notepad but forgot he left it with Mindy at the room so the next best thing was the trusty wall. Lucas thought for a second. Wonder how people would react to superheroes that were shapes. He soon found himself drawing on the wall next to him different shape and different sizes. Then he colored them in. Lucas took a step back and looked at the different sizes, and shapes. Something in his head said, "Scribble that out that not what you want to draw and you know it." Lucas called Baxter. Baxter shot his idea down. Baxter said, "Not to laugh at you or anything but no one is going to read a comic on a couple of superheroes that are different size shapes. Man… your funny but seriously that no good." Then he hung up. The voice that was talking to Lucas came back and said, "Draw me like I said he approve stop giving him that superhero shapes. Listen Draw Me! Again Lucas ignored the voice in his head and drew another couple of superheroes. This time Lucas went music. He drew a keyboard and a stanza, and colored it in. Then Lucas stepped back. He tried to pitch it to Baxter. Baxter said, "Look either take me serious or stop wasting my time." Now the voice was back. The voice said, "I'm done being polite I don't care if you draw me and my friend or not we are the best thing in your mind right now. Why do you think we keep giving you them mess idea for superheroes saving the best two for last? So what your boss is mad he won't be when that money start rolling in when u draw us." Lucas said, "There are to of you?" The voice said, "Yeah, you created us you yet to give us names. Just draw us out. The names will come to you. You have them tucked away in a box in your head think harder."
Lucas began to draw. Lucas had a wild imagination. So he decided to draw two superheroes and two super villains. The first superhero Lucas drew was Ghetto woman. The names of the superheroes were Ghetto woman and Beast man. Lucas drew Ghetto woman with a blue cape and all gray suit. Ghetto woman real name was Francine Fox. Then Lucas drew Beast man. Beast man was a dark creature had a torn cape and was all hairy, but he could with a blink make all the hair disappear. His real name was Josiah Carter.
This origin on how Doctor Josiah Carter became beast man. Josiah Carter was among the leading doctors and scientists at the local university. His specialty was carnivorous animals. Josiah studied everything that ate meat. The main sanctuary consisted tigers, lions, wolves, and snakes. He was in truth, studying them to see if it were possible to splice their genes together using a high-powered laser beam. The beam was at ninety percent concentration when he brought his hand through it. He had been reading his notes on the previous day and used them to form his hypothesis. Doctor Carter guessed that it could be done and that he could create an animal that carried all the characteristics of all carnivorous animals.
When his hand touched the laser, it mixed his genes with the others that were in the petri dish. Surprise sent him sprawling backward, smashing his elbow into the glass tiger case. His assistant, Doctor Carolyn Kowalski went for the ALARM button. She accidentally pushed the RELEASE button and all the cages opened. The animals leapt from their cages and began attacking Doctor Carter, who was now unconscious. Feeding time and had been missed by at least three hours, by now the animals were starving. One of the tigers bit down onto his arm, tearing flesh from his body. The exposed bone showed through the skin.
The other animals took turns eating their fill. Doctor Carter had died minutes before felt any pain. Glass shards stuck from the top his head and blood flowed freely from the wound. There was no time for the body to be taken to the morgue. There was nothing left of the body but dry skeleton. The flesh had been completely torn from his body. Carrying the lifeless bones back to the autopsy lab, the on-call doctors removed the skeleton from the body bag and placed it in the cooling chamber.
