Morbius part 7
*At the hidden lab*
Martine: Mitchel?
Morbius: In here!
*She hears him inside the abandoned mall area that was turned into a makeshift lab.*
Martine: So, this is it?
Morbius: We'll have to continue research here.
Martine: What research? You haven't told me what you're planning here
Morbius: Well, I believe I can figure out a way to reverse the vampiric effects. If I can't succeed I might be able to find another method.
Martine: Well, I've got your stuff here.
Morbius: Thank you.
*He works for hours on the computer, and doing some tests.*
Martine: It's time to eat you little monster.
Cat: Meow!
*She accidently cuts herself trying to open the can of cat food.*
Martine: Ow! Shit!
Morbius: Gggrr… grrr…
Martine: Mitchel?
*Morbius "blossoms" into his vampire form.*
Martine: Mitchel!
*Slams her hand on the ground to make Morbius snap out of it.*
Morbius: I'm sorry… you may wanna close that up.
Martine: Right.
*She patches her wound up.*
Martine: … How does it feel? When you turn into… that?
Morbius: Something awakens inside of me. Something primal. And it just… it wants to hunt. It wants to kill.
*He’s visibly getting frustrated about it.*
Martine: I'm sorry.
*Morbius gets up, and goes outside.*
Cat: Meow?
*On top of the building, Morbius looks over the city. Martine shows up a few minutes later.*
Martine: Hi. Well, it's good as new.
Morbius: Nice work doctor.
Martine: Thank you, doctor.
Morbius: You know for the record, I wasn't gonna go full Dracula on you downstairs.
Martine: For the record. I find him to be quite the romantic.
Morbius: How so?
Martine: He has 3 brides after all.
Morbius: Ooooh, that makes sense. Well… he'd probably be a better suitor than I ever was.
Martine: What are you talking about? Your a ladies' man, you've have plenty of suitors.
Morbius: That's not true. They liked the brains but never the looks. But you never saw the looks did you.
Martine: No. Never.
Morbius: … Come here. Close your eyes.
Martine: Okay.
Morbius: Maybe a little closer.
*He then kisses her on the lips. All the while Milo looks at them from a distance.*
Morbius: I missed you.
Martine: Me too…
Stroud: So hold on, let me get this straight. So he found a cure to his disease, the side effect is turning into a vampire, and so he was trying to get rid of that?
Nami: Yes
Stroud: But it didn't work, so he ended up being more aggressive and attacked you guys.
Luffy: Uh huh. But when he realized he did that, he jumped off our ship. He didn't mean to attack us.
Nami: The serum he developed made him lose control. It wasn't his fault. So I doubt he'd be the person killing all those people.
Luffy: And Sanji says he was attacked by another Vampire who wasn't Morbius!
Sanji: It's true. I know what Morbius looks like when he's on red. And that wasn't him.
Rodriguez: Look, even if we do believe you and Dr. Morbius is innocent, we'd still need proof that there's another vampire killer.
Sanji: There is… I remember, just before I was attacked we passed by a building. There was a security camera. There's your proof.
*Stroud and Rodriguez head back to the crime scene to get the security footage.*
Security Guard: Yeah, you can borrow the tapes.
Rodriguez: Alright! Let's see if these Straw Hat Pirates are telling the truth. Though, um, if they're pirates shouldn't we be arresting them?
Stroud: Not our job. We're paranormal investigators and hunters. Not Marines.
Rodriguez: That is true. But still, we work for the government and they hate pirates.
Stroud: SHIELD does whatever it wants. And unless Director Fury tells me otherwise, we leave the pirates alone. Plus, they seem very nice for pirates.
*He starts going through the footage on the laptop*
Rodriguez: I mean, yeah that Luffy guy was pretty quirky. But that Zoro guy… he looked at me funny. But that redhead was, WOW, she's uh catch if you know what I mean-
Stroud: Focus, Rodriguez. Now let's see here…
Rodriguez: Did you know the average male body has 12 pints of blood in him? How much do you think the doctor can drink?
Stroud: I don't know.
Rodriguez: Well when's the last time you had 36 beers. When's the last time you had any beers?
Stroud: Wait… check this out.
*He gets to the footage of the attack. And he notices that the vampire that attacked the men isn't Mitchel Morbius.*
Stroud: That's not the doctor.
Rodriguez: They were telling the truth! So he's innocent right?
Stroud: Well it certainly can shift the blame on whoever that is.
Rodriguez: Either way, it's what these bloodsuckers do! They multiply!
J. Jonah Jameson: Breaking news! It appears new evidence sheds light on the recent vampire killings! As it turns out, Dr. Mitchel Morbius may be innocent after all. Witness testimony and video footage reveal the vampire killer to be not Dr. Morbius but someone else completely! Facial recognition scans are still trying to determine the identity of the killer. One thing is for certain! The city is not safe at night! Please follow the police issued curfew from sundown. Stay indoors until the killer is brought to justice.
*The next morning*
Morbius: I need more, I need… shit.
Martine: What is it?
Morbius: There's a formula I need but only one place that I know of has a key Ingredient.
Martine: What is it?
Morbius: It's called Vibranium. The strongest metal in the world. It's mostly found in a small nation in Africa, Wakanda, in very small quantities. It's extremely rare. And few vibranium samples exist in the United States.
Martine: Why?
Morbius: Because Wakanda owns the patents for the metal.
Martine: An entire country can do that?
Morbius: Apparently yeah. But, I knew a guy who was a rich asshole kind of guy. He helped fund the cancer program at Oscorp awhile back. He's got a vibranium sample.
Martine: Alright so we go ask him to get it for you.
Morbius: No. He's definitely going to say no. I'll have to sneak in and take it myself.
Martine: Well what if you get caught?
Morbius: I won't.
*Morbius then leaves, and puts his hoodie on.*
*As Morbius leaves the abandoned building, he realizes he's bloodthirsty.*
Morbius: Shit…
*So he goes to the nearby hospital and steals some blood packs.*
Morbius: Okay. Here we go. Now I'm ready.
Luffy: Let's go find Morbius one last time, I feel luck-
Morbius: …
Luffy: …
Luffy: MORBIUS!
*Luffy jumps on him and hugs him.*
Nami: There you are!
Zoro: Where the hell did you come from!?
Luffy: Good news buddy! You're innocent!
Morbius: WHAT ARE YO- … *quietly* what are you guys doing here!?
Luffy: Sanji's in the hospital. He got attacked!
Morbius: Oh no… Did Milo get to him?
Luffy: Whose Milo?
Morbius: … I gotta go. I-
Luffy: Wait! Where are you going!?
Morbius: It doesn't matter
Nami: Stop! Whatever it is you're doing you don't have to do it alone! Look, we know you're innocent!
Morbius: … But I still hurt you guys. I didn't think you'd forgive me.
Nami: We know you didn't have control.
Luffy: We're not mad. Except for Usopp.
Usopp: Hey!
Nami: We don't care about what you did. Tell us how we can help you now.
Morbius: …
*Outside a tall building*
Morbius: See that?
Nami: Uh huh.
Morbius: That's the Rand enterprises HQ. They have a sample of Vibranium that I need to complete a formula.
Nami: Oh, I've broken in there before.
Morbius: Now I know it won't be eas- … WHAT!?
Nami: Years ago I stole some fifty thousand dollars worth of assets from them. It shouldn't be too hard to break in.
Morbius: … Well, okay let's just get in. Get out.
Luffy: what am I supposed to do again?
Morbius: Keep a lookout and when we come, drive away!
Luffy: Okee!
Morbius: Nami, let's go!
Nami: Right!
*They head inside the Rand enterprises building. Morbius cuts a hole in the window. Allowing for Morbius and Nami to quietly get inside. They're both wearing dark clothing as to blend in with the dark halls. They quietly sneak through and find themselves near a vault.*
Nami: Time to work my magic. Keep an eye out.
Morbius: Okay.
*Nami then uses a stethoscope to listen to the locks mechanism until she gets the combination right and the vault door opens.*
Nami: Move!
*They both head inside and see rare geodes from different countries. When Morbius spots a metal*
Morbius: Nami! That's it!
Nami: Okay. Wait! Don't touch it. There's a laser pointed at it. Stay here. I'll find the source.
Morbius: But-
*She leaves.*
Morbius: … Wait
*He uses his echolocation. He can see beyond the walls and notices where the lasers are coming from.*
Morbius: They're up there!
*Morbius then flies up and… doesn't know what to do. If he puts his hand or anything on there he'll trigger the alarm.*
Morbius what do I do!?
*But then he hears vent noises and Nami pops out with some cut circuits in her hand. The lasers are disabled*
Morbius: What!?
Nami: I told you. I've done this before.
*Nami drop down gently. Morbius floats down and Nami is able to break the glass containing the vibranium. They promptly steal it.*
Nami: Alright let's go.
Morbius: I feel bad.
Nami: Don't feel so bad. They're rich elites. Fuck em'
Morbius: Yeah… but… it's just that I've heard the backstory of this company. It was a family owned company until they all went missing in the Himalayas. Including their 9 year old son.
Nami: … Oh.
Morbius: Yeah. So I feel bad for taking their property from this place. Even if the current owner is an asshole.
Nami: Just remember, Mitchel, empathy is good to have. But you have to restrain yourself sometimes. Okay? You're doing this because you want to help people right? So let's go!
Morbius: … Right. You're right. Let's go.
Milo: Yohohoho! Drink me heartiest yoho!
*Milo is extremely drunk.*
Milo: Butler! Get me more whine!
Butler: Of course sir.
*He heads downstairs.*
Milo: WOO! I've never felt so alive!
*Milo starts prancing around when suddenly the elevator doors open to his room*
Milo: That was quick, Butler.
Mother Lily: I'm not your Butler. I came here to see how you've been doing.
