"What is this place?"
"Well, it was supposed to be a secret, where Ruby and I can work on the Creatures in order to provide a....Nothing."
"What?"
"Nothing."
"Did Ruby ask you not to tell anybody? The more people know, the less we can protect ;sort of deal?
...Guess it's too late for that cause you have already piqued my interest.
Spill."
"The Creatures are gone anyways, so there's nothing to even experiment on."
"We can go get more."
"How?"
"We can assemble Hunters?"
"Wouldn't that defeat the purpose of keeping this secret...…..a secret?"
"What secret?
What am I looking at?
What's all around me?"
"Hmmmmm.....
.......Elwin!!!!!!!!!!!! I give you........
THE ANTIDOTE!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Impressive."
"Course not right now, but in due time; everything you see here will help us regulate and calm all the Kids; without having to take extreme measures like Moe's family wants."
"If I can provide you the Creatures, how fast do you think you can find the cure?"
"That's tough to say without Ruby here.
Her being here would be a massive help."
"You know I can't do that.
Ruby was put in jail by the Counsel, not me.
If I defied their wishes, they would remove me from my seat."
"They can do that?"
"Power only goes up, sister."
"Oh.
Well, most of this stuff is dated back centuries; even further; and all Rubys parents could come up with was an antidote to stop the transformaiton for a day, maybe two."
"We want to kill it."
"Exactly.
Which is why I can't give you a definite answer, Elwin.
Even if I knew what a few of these things were; that would help me out greatly.
I know that with today's technology and advancements, we can find a Cure, where we couldn't years ago.....It's just........"
"Where to start?"
"Exactly."
"As my Father used to say, 'If you can't find what you need, then turn to Nature.
Everything starts there.....' "
"And everything ends there. '
I heard it too."
"You really thing Rubys seed will help?
It's not like the others."
"That's the problem. We've found out that it doesn't matter who holds the See; if you're not Ruby, you're done.
Unlike the other Seeds; this one has already found a host."
"We just need it to .....you know...…find other Hosts."
"Elwin, this is a Seed, not a Symbiote."
"Then we just need everything else to think that it's Ruby."
"Again, why didn't it work for Dragonfrog. He is the closest match to Ruby, besides her Dragon; and it still went sideways.
He couldn't control it."
"Well...…
*Scratch, scratch*
We got our work cut out for us, don't we?"
"We?"
"My Father is set in his ways of what he thinks is best for the Creatures, but you and I both know that their are for more then just them out there.
The sooner we get this cure, the better; and you need all the Hands you can get."
"......So much for keeping this secret on the downlow.
I'll go ask Ruby if she knows what any of this stuff is.
Way different than what is at the school."
"Use what you got, right?"
"Yeah, but in her families case; I don't think they even know what they got."
"But it worked for them."
"Did it?
Make it once, it's luck.
Make it twice, it's a hobby.
Repeat it three times, it's a skill.
Perfect it four; it's now a Passion."
"And perfect it five times.....It's in your blood."
"So is everything else.
Seed please?
...…We might not have a Creature, but we got something better."
"Rainbow, not everything can be explained with science, nor can science help cure everything."
"Use what you got, right?"
".....Right!!!"
"Not a word of this leaves this room, understand?"
"Loud and clear."
