"So you're saying that after giving the merged dragon and gryphon a second set of wings you saw some of your old body poking out of this disguise of yours," Adraxi summarized as they sat around a table in Renzyl's room eating sushi. "But less than a minute later it was covered up and you were able to move again? That was a bit of risk for you."

"Well if I stayed buried in their tailhole any longer they were going to probably start charging me parking fees," Chrono replied with a small fee. "I just didn't even realize that it was happening until I pulled back and saw them there. Admittedly it was also a bit of a shock after being used to seeing myself as Lord Renzyl for so long, everything about mimicking him comes so naturally now it makes me wonder if this whole thing isn't just some test to see if he could control me remotely while I've taken his form."

The marble rubber dragon chuckled, swallowing what was in his maw first before continuing on. "Wouldn't be the first time he's surprised a minion like that," Chrono gave the other dragon a look with those glowing red eyes of him that caused Adraxi to smirk. "What, you think that one day I just happened to go up to Renzyl and say hey, can I be a living statue fountain in the courtyard for a few eons? I didn't even realize what was happening until I could feel the plug going up my butt and my rubber hardening as Renzyl is next to me saying that it's much more fun when it's a surprise."

"Still... I don't think he would have just up and left and not prompted me to use this ability sooner," Chrono replied wistfully. "In either case I just have to keep on being Renzyl until he gets back so that this realm can continue to function properly."

"Your sacrifice is greatly appreciated," Adraxi said with a smirk before going back to the tablet. "Alright, with the feral thing taken care of I've taken the liberty of using your pet doppelganger to wipe a few of these little ones off the list for you as well to actually make this monster more manageable. Your next stop is the research department whose requesting the presence of Master Renzyl in order to show off their latest and greatest invention to help him win the Nexus War."

Chrono nodded and stood up, leaving his plate for his pet to clean up as he went towards the door. "One more thing," Adraxi continued on, causing the rubber dragon to turn his head back towards him. "With this thing concerning your scales, if that's the case it means that this disguise of yours doesn't have nearly the same connection to the Nexus that the real Renzyl does. Be very careful with that power flowing through you, use too much and you just might exhaust the power and give yourself away."

Once more Chrono found himself nodding before he left, but despite the look of self-assurance he had given the marble rubber dragon he found Adraxi's words ringing in the back of his mind. They had never tried anything like this before for the long term... was it possible that the power would run out if he didn't use it wisely enough? Was there even an ability to recharge it or was his disguise slowly going to wear thinner until it was painfully obvious that it was Chrono underneath the black rubber? Either way though it didn't stop him from carrying out his mission of trying to keep peace in the realm... though it did prompt him to walk over to the part of the manor where those who were more inventive in nature had a place to try and build new toys.

As soon as he got there Chrono was greeted by many of those that were inside the room, which he expected considering that this was the place where he normally found the real rubber dragon tinkering around. That also meant that he would have to be extra careful in order to not get caught since they probably knew him better than most out in the realm as he went around saying hello. Eventually he found his way to a rubber naga and frilled lizard that were busy looking over something on a table. Both of them quickly whipped their heads around and let out a small squeak of surprise before bowing and greeting Chrono as Renzyl, a measure of respect that the former silver raptor didn't think he could ever get used to, before immediately going into their pitch.

"So we think we may have designed something that is definitely going to give your other brothers pause," the naga said as he turned and handed Chrono what looked like a silver rubber pocket watch. "I know you might have thought that the pause thing was a pun but really the pocket watch design is just for show, the mechanism we happened to have invented was circular in nature so we just decided to put it in something similar. I suppose it could also be used as a disguise but if your brother is there then I doubt you're-"

"What my partner is trying to say," the frilled lizard interrupted. "Is that this device actually reverses the power of the one who's holding it, so for instance if you tried to use your rubber powers on something then it would go against you instead. The best part is the stronger the power being used the more intense the rebound..."

"Well that certainly is very interesting," Chrono stated as he continued to examine it. "Not sure how Re... we would get something like this into their hands but it would be very fun to see the results. How exactly do you get it to do what it does?"

"It's pretty simple actually," the naga stated as he pointed to small button at the top. "That right there opens the watch and exposes the mechanism, and as long as it stays open then the power will be active... at least until it runs out of juice and needs to be recharged. As for seeing the results... we were actually wondering if you would honor us with a test?"

Chrono found himself swallowing hard as he realized that he had suddenly gotten put on the spot, even though the researchers didn't realize what they had done. His thoughts suddenly drifted back towards what he had been discussing with the marble rubber dragon and whether or not his power is actually comparable to Renzyl in that form. While he knew that he would never be the same level as the nexus creature he wondered if the item was going to react strongly enough that the researchers will be fooled... or if it will even work at all. While his power level wasn't exactly weak if he blew his cover with these guys then everything would fall apart... but if he said no to the test, something that he could already feel wouldn't be Renzyl's style even without the rubber dragon's instincts, then it could arouse a completely different kind of suspicion.

Eventually Chrono found himself nodding and taking the pocket watch, the others clapping as they and several from around the area followed them to the testing area in order to see their invention in action. It appeared they had already prepared for the arrival by putting down a few rubber items that were clearly mundane in nature as the rubber dragon walked out in the middle of them. He had been Renzyl enough times that he didn't need instinct in order to know how to manipulate the straps to his will, the real nexus creature enjoying such a thing from time to time, but there was an additional variable added to the field as he gripped the watch tightly. After taking a deep breath he pressed the button on the top and watched the cover spring open, and as soon as it did he felt a strange sensation in his chest that something was... off.

The rubber dragon wasn't sure how much time there was per charge on this item so he got started right away with one of the rubber straps on the ground, imbuing it so that it would be charge with energy to control a creature that wore it. Much to Chrono's surprise he watched it float up from the ground for a second before hurtling straight towards him, wrapping around his neck and forming a collar as runes that normally would have been for the control of another were now activated against him. He could hear the sounds of congratulations coming in from the inventors behind him, but at the moment his greater focus was on the fact that the strip of rubber had started to siphon his power.

The other rubber creatures began to see more of the straps starting to slither towards the one they thought was Renzyl and quickly told him to close the watch, but when Chrono did so nothing seemed to happen as the possessed bindings quickly moved towards him. There was a moment of panic where he thought it might be best to run, but before he could do that a particularly long length of shiny black rubber coiled around his calves and lower legs like a snag before pulling them tight together. Thankfully Renzyl's reflexes kicked in and kept him upright, but just as he did another set of cuffs wrapped around his wrists and forced him backwards to the point where he fell onto his back. Out of the corner of his eye he could see that one or two of the others wanted to come in and help but Chrono told them to stay back while the power was still active right before a muzzle dropped down and secured itself to his maw.

Well this isn't good... Chrono thought to himself as his muscular form was almost completely bound, though he was still able to wiggle it appeared the magic that the collar had absorbed wasn't done yet. One of the things that had been brought into the testing area was an extra-large bodysuit and sleep sack, which drifted over towards Chrono's already stimulated body and began to wiggle around his restrained form. Because it was imbued with Renzyl's energy still it was able to completely bypass the restraints and cover him completely, leaving him as a squirming, featureless rubber creature completely bound up.

With his eyes covered by the suit he couldn't see as something began to tickle against his legs, Chrono letting out a muffled huff as the sleep sack began to slide up his body like a snake. At this point it might have turned into a snake, but all he could focus on at the moment was the intense pleasure that was coming from his restrained body. He was already getting thoroughly aroused by the feel of rubber against his muscular form, which only highlighted the powerful physique that was currently trapped as he was being cocooned once more. What was worse was that as the puffy layer of latex was covering him he began to feel something push up inside him, the muzzle and the body suit forming rubber gags molded into the likeness of the cock pressed up against his abs as he was penetrated.

Even though his brain was being soaked by the sheer amount of lust coming from being bound, restrained, gagged, and plugged by Renzyl's member all Chrono could think about was if he had possibly blown it with the others. Had Renzyl ever gotten this caught up in one of his own experiments before, he wondered as he rocked back and forth from the constant stimulation he was receiving, and if so was he able to escape on his own? He could feel the collar still fastened securely around his neck and the more he attempted to use the nexus creature's power the tighter his bindings got around him. The animate rubber had already managed to milk one orgasm out of him through the gags buzzing in his mouth and it was already gearing up to do a second as he plumbed the depths of the memories stored in this body to try and find a way out of this...

Give in...

The words came unbidden to Chrono's mind, give in, and though it seemed counterproductive he was able to abide by them even as the arousal became constant. He let go of any attempts to escape and just let the rubber have its way with his, technically Renzyl's body, feeling it squeeze and massage, and tighten around every curve and crevice of his being. It was one of the most enveloping feelings he had ever had before and as he came to orgasm number two he felt something starting to happen. It started around his neck, the unusual feeling he had gotten from the watch subsiding as it began to lose its power. Soon Chrono could feel it become just another inert piece of rubber once more, and though the rest of it quickly followed suit he waited another minute or so... just to be sure.

The second Chrono ripped his way out of the bindings he heard a number of sighs of relief from the others as he was helped up. "I am so sorry Master Renzyl," the naga said as he quickly grabbed the watch and put it in a specialized bag made to neutralize nexus power. "We failed to take into consideration the cascading effect of your abilities on others, thank goodness you thought to stop using your power to get out or who knows how long you would have been in there."

"Oh I'm... sure I would have gotten out eventually," Chrono reassured, mustering up that Renzyl charm in order to put the others at ease. "I have to say that you have a good thing going with that pocket watch, perhaps you should add a few failsafes just in case something like this happens again in case you feel the need to test it yourselves. While I'm sure it won't quite react as strongly I don't need to come in one day and see you all bound and gagged."

The others chuckled and they talked for a bit longer before Chrono told them that he had to go, waving them off and heading back down towards the manor proper. As he did he remembered something that caused him to pause halfway down the stairs... he had used quite a bit of energy during that demonstration, yet when he got out he looked just as much like the nexus creature as he had before. He gave himself a quick examination just to be sure and found that there wasn't a single silver scale showing or anything else that might give him away. But if just using a little bit of power on the chimera was enough to expose him why didn't this do anything?

His thoughts were suddenly interrupted as he saw a rubber lizardman standing in the doorframe just within sight of him, nervously rocking back and forth while he no doubt waited for him to appear. Chrono wasn't quite sure what this was all about but decided to act nonchalantly and walk through the door into the hallway. "Oh, Master Renzyl," the purple rubber creature said as he pretended to notice that he was here. "Fancy meeting you here, there was something that I was actually wondering about and was hoping to meet up with you."

Though Chrono knew that he was incredibly busy at the moment in the back of his mind he also figured if he blew this minion off now he would likely just add a request to his probably never-ending list. "Of course Ishmael," Chrono stated, knowing the creature's name as soon as he wondered what it was. "If you don't mind walking and talking as I have a few places I need to be today and have opted to walk since I could use a good leg stretch."

"Thank you Master Renzyl," Ishmael replied as they began to walk together towards the main hub where Adraxi was waiting for him to check in. "It's about being one of those that gets to create all the neat traps that you use to snare others while on different worlds. I was wondering if, maybe, you could perhaps give me the ability to think like they do so that I could join them and not be a burden?"

The question nearly stopped Chrono in his tracks. Give a minion an ability they don't have? He knew that when it came to certain things Renzyl was able to accommodate, such as the extra pair of wings he had given the chimera, but when it came to skills or strength or something of that nature those were usually either brought in from their transformations or honed though training. Plus giving away a concept such as creativity didn't seem possible even for the nexus creature... it felt like it was something that had to be learned from within, a sentiment he related to the lizardman who looked absolutely crestfallen at the news.

"I'm not saying that you can't be someone that invents things," Chrono said as he stopped their walk and put his hand on the minion's shoulder. "Why don't you just go up there and hang out with them, maybe talk and see what their process is? I guarantee that you'll be better off than just me giving you something of that nature because you will have developed it yourself."

"They'd probably just laugh me right out," Ishmael replied, sighing when he looked up into the glowing red eyes of the dragon. "Sorry, I know that's not what they would do, but it just feels like they would and I'm not sure what to do. Maybe this whole life isn't right for me in the first place and it would be better that you sent me home or something."

This was an interesting turn of events, Chrono thought to himself as he used Renzyl's ability to see desires to try and gauge where this creature was coming from. While it wasn't rare for some to have regrets about the choices they have made and were subsequently sent back to their own area of the nexus, often with their memories erased, it was highly unusual to have someone that had a love of rubber and desire to convert others want to go back. There was also the problem that Chrono was pretty sure that he didn't have the power to do that, just like he probably couldn't actually teleport himself anywhere outside of the realm itself. The question at the moment though was how he was going to handle the problem in front of him as he tried to think of a solution using the desires he saw floating in front of his eyes.

"Perhaps we can do something about your desire to be creative and maybe start you off somewhere where being an observer is a natural part of things," Chrono said as an idea began to form in his mind. "Why don't you follow me and I'll take you to someone that might just be able to help you with this self-confidence issue of yours."

After a few minutes Renzyl and Ishmael arrived at the gallery, the rubber dragon looking around at the splendor of the art that had been created by the nexus creature himself as well as resident artist and General Sivilath. He motioned for the lizardman to follow him as they passed by the sculpture exhibit, the living statues bowing to him as they passed before once more assuming their forms. After that came the paintings, most of them showing off scenes of battle or landscapes that someone could actually go into and roam around in. Finally in the back was Sivilath's studio, a place where the maliciously patterned creature was typically found if he wasn't off doing some sort of mission for Renzyl. Once more Chrono got a small twinge of fear that he was about to be found out, but it was lesser than usual as he opened the door to allow himself and Ishmael inside.

Initially the studio was completely empty, though it appeared some sort of class had just let out as there were easels and paints set up everywhere, but as they walked inside they saw the lizardman quickly pop out from another room. "Oh, forgive me Master Renzyl," Silvilath said quickly as he rushed over to the two. "Had I known you were coming I would have cleaned up, what can I do for you today? And who's this?"

"Someone that I'm hoping you can help," Chrono replied as he pushed the lizardman forward. "This one wished to be an inventor in the research department but is a little lacking in self-confidence in his creative abilities. Since he doesn't want to make a poor first impression in front of his potential new peers I thought that perhaps a bit of art therapy will help him foster his creativity."

"I can certainly give it a shot," Siviliath stated with a nod before turning his gaze back down towards the other lizardman. "Is there any particular medium that you would like to try first?"

Ishmael just shrugged and after Chrono asking if he could take it from there the General nodded and said they would be fine. Though the silver raptor would have liked to see if there would be any progress made on the subject he was far too busy to hang around and watch Sivilath work, even if that was something that Renzyl would do. Still... it was something that he could check off his list as he walked out of the studio and back towards the manor proper. As he walked back he wondered just how well Ishmael was going to do; while he believed that anyone could do anything if they tried enough given the desires that he had it was going to be a long road ahead until he built up his confidence.

Just as Chrono was about to pass through into the sculpture section he stopped when he thought he had heard Renzyl's name and looked around. Internally he sighed, if this was someone else just grabbing the rubber dragon's attention he was never going to get anything on his list done, but his irritation turned to confusion when he saw that there wasn't anyone around him. Just as he was about to shrug it off and move on he heard it again though, this time with a clear direction in mind. He looked over towards the doors that led to a place that he had only been in a handful of times, and for good reason.

The Forbidden Gallery, the place where quite a bit of the dangerous stuff in the realm was kept. It was heavily warded and you needed Renzyl's permission to even look inside it, much less go around, as trapped creatures with powerful abilities were kept there to make sure they didn't escape. While some were there voluntarily for a thrill most were not, and as Chrono continued to hear the name call out Renzyl he wondered if this was merely a trap or if something was actually going on. Though it hadn't been his place as the silver latex raptor he knew that his role now as the black rubber dragon to go and check it out as he headed towards the door.

A familiar shudder went through Chrono's body as he opened the door after unlocking the wards with Renzyl's power, something that even Renzyl's instincts couldn't prevent as he walked inside. As he continued to venture further into the area he found a number of items inside, all of them used to restrain the creatures within. One such example was a dragon covered almost completely in gold plates, his body perfectly still as metal bindings covered nearly every inch of his body. That was one of the willing, an extreme bondage lover that had been there for as long as Chrono could remember.

As he looked around however he failed to see anything out of place, at least from what he could remember as he strained Renzyl's ears to try and hear where that voice was coming from. While the Forbidden Gallery wasn't very big there was a lot of stuff in it that turned the entire space into a maze, and the longer Chrono stayed there the more he just wanted to get out. Just as he made up his mind to leave he heard a whisper of the voice once again, this time coming from one of the corners that he had just passed. When he turned to look the only thing that was there was what looked like a neon green crystal egg that pulsed with light just like a heartbeat.

"I don't remember you..." Chrono said as he moved forward, his glowing red eyes staring at the strange egg as the pulsing seemed to quicken upon his attention. "Another relic brought here before my time. Perhaps I should get Renzyl to brush me up on some of the older things that are in his realm, though he had so much stuff he's probably forgotten about most of it."

Though the rubber dragon took another step closer to try and examine it he knew not to get too near it, good policy for anything in Renzyl's realm as he tried to figure out why it was acting up all of a sudden. As he slowly circled around the item he caught a glimpse of something that he would have missed had it not happened right as he was looking at it. It was a small crack in the otherwise flawless surface of the gemstone, illuminated only by the flashing pulses of light that had continued to grow stronger the longer Chrono stared at it. The sight of this caused a small pit of worry to form inside of his stomach as he realized that whatever was inside this thing was starting to break out... and he had no idea of how to fix a relic this ancient as another crack appeared... then another...

Chrono was at a loss for what to do, and finally when he thought to go and ask the marble rubber dragon if he knew what this was a bright green beam of light radiated from the cracks as the pulsing was so quick it was almost a constant light. He had just enough time to throw his hands up and shield himself as the egg burst open, shattering and dissolving the crystalline casing in a burst of pure light. The draconic creature found himself getting lifted off his feet by the sheer force of it, crashing backwards against one of the shelves. Thankfully the other wards protected the creatures in the room from getting knocked over or destroyed as he blinked his eyes several times to try and remove the spots from his eyes so he could see what happened.

When he managed to get his eyesight to return he saw that the egg was gone, as well as nearly half the pillar that it had been sitting on. Behind it the wall was slightly charred and the runes that had been invisible up to that point were now charred into the plaster. Chrono found his anxiety reaching a peak as he realized that whatever was in that egg had just escaped... and as he looked around he didn't sense the presence of the creature that had been trapped within. If what he was sensing was true then that meant a particularly dangerous being had just been released into the realm and he had no idea of what it was and how to stop it.
