The Mech Lord

[You sure about it? Think once again, it will make you remember your mother's face-nya?] Aiden reminded Leo once again about it.

"Well, I will be happy if do so, I don't remember seeing my mother's face after all." Leo laughed at it, but it immediately made Aiden to shut up

"Fine, here I go!" Leo gritted his teeth, and clenched the screws on his shoulder with a wrench and spun it in the reverse direction.

"Crap!"

"Clang!"

The wrench immediately dropped down from Leo's hand as he began to feel an immense amount of pain coursing through his body. It really felt like hell. It was as if someone was once again trying to tear his arms apart.

Sweat immediately began to pour down from Leo's face and he really wanted to scream at the top of his lungs.

[You have suffered an injury to your arm. A previously closed wound had opened up.] Arthur alerted Leo.

"I know.." Leo muttered with a painful look on his face. This thing was installed under medical supervision and here he was trying to pull it off with a wrench. He sure was asking for it.

[Told you, it would be painful-nya.] Aiden said with a concerned tone.

Leo picked up the wrench with his shaking hand, and still went for the screws on his shoulder. He then gritted his teeth with veins popping out on his face. He was going to do it. There were a lot of things on line here. He forced himself to remember every important thing.

The secrets about their memory loss…

His real body..

His father…

His unknown mother…

If his potential was limited, he wouldn't be ever finding about any of those things. He had to break through his shackle. And, if he couldn't even endure this bit of pain, there was no way in hell that he was ever going to break through the next color barrier.

His shoulder continued to bleed but Leo endured it, he didn't let much of a squeak out and continued to pull the bloody screws out one by one.

There was complete silence in the room. Even Aiden didn't dare to say anything. He continued to observe Leo in silence. He could feel his will and for some reason he felt it to be very familiar. He didn't know why but as if he knew this stubborn guy would pull it off.

"Clang!"

The holder on Leo's shoulder fell off the ground with a heavy clang, and Leo immediately fell to the ground with sweat pouring down his head. His hairs were all drenched as if he had taken a bath, and he was panting vigorously.

[Are you alright-nya?] Aiden asked in a worried tone.

"*pant*...Y-Yeah..*pant*.." Leo nodded as he tried to maintain his calm. He was starting to feel a bit dizzy actually.

"Creak!"

At this moment, the door to the working room suddenly opened up and the hairs on Leo's body rose. He had locked the door of the room so that Spike, who was practicing in the hall, couldn't enter.

As for the keys to the working room, there was only one person beside Leo who used this place.

And, it was…

"Surprise!!"

Leo slowly raised his head and it was sure was him.

Yuji Miwa aka Doc.

…

Yuji had just entered the place. He was not known as Doc for no reason. Actually, Doc was only half his nickname. His real nickname was Mad Doc.

He was a maniac who was always busy with his research in the working room, and like Spike didn't even spare holidays.

Today, he was a bit late. But, that didn't stop him from coming to the club.

And, he met Spike in the hall who told him that Leo was here. This had actually made him a bit excited. After all, he didn't have anyone with him until now. So, he tried his best to be as sneaky as possible utilizing the skills that he had learned from Harry to surprise Leo.

And, it was indeed a surprise not only for Leo, but for him as well.

When he saw the state that Leo was in, his eyes immediately went wide in horror.

"Leo!!!" He screamed in shock before rushing up to him. "How did this happen?"

"I-It's nothing, I am fine, Doc." Leo tried to calm him down, but it sure wasn't working considering that he was barely able to stand himself.

"Come here!" Yuji assisted Leo to the nearby desk, and helped him to sit before looking at the wound on his shoulder.

"How in hell did it open up?" He asked with a frown, and the next instant, his eyes fell on the blood screws and wrench on the ground. That sure told him more than enough to know about the situation here.

"Are you crazy?!!" He immediately glared at Leo in anger. This was madness. Doing something like this without anesthetic and medical supervision was the same as going through hell.

Those things were f*cking screwed into one's bones. How could it not be painful?!

He really felt embarrassed to call himself Mad Doc in front of this guy.

"Just what were you thinking? Have you lost something here!!" He smacked Leo's head in anger.

Even in pain, Leo couldn't help, but smile looking at him.

Leo had been brought here forcefully, but it sure didn't feel bad if he had people like this around him.

"What are you grinning like an idiot for?!!" The grin on Leo's face only pissed Yuji even more, and he roared in anger.

"Spike!! Bring first aid!!" He shouted looking towards the door, and the voice was surely loud enough to reach the hallway.

In a minute, Spike arrived carrying that huge mountain-like first aid kit on his tiny head.

"What in hell happened to him?" He looked at Leo in surprise. He sure didn't remember leaving the guy in this state.

"We will know soon." Yuji glared at Leo before treating him up.

They were military students so it wasn't a surprise if they had knowledge of treating superficial wounds.

"You better pay a visit to the hospital to make sure there isn't any internal wound," Yuji said in a serious voice as he looked at Leo, and rolled the bandages around his severed shoulder.

But, Leo didn't need to do so.

[Scan complete..]

[No, internal injury has been found.]

'Thanks Arthur.' Leo sighed in relief, inwardly. If it wasn't for Arthur's supervision, he would surely have ended up hurting himself badly in this process.

But still, he managed to succeed.

His goal wasn't far away now.
