[POV Reo]
I ripped into the guy's mind in reckless abandon, I noticed the guy was screaming and his mind was being shredded, but I didn't care at all. I noticed that Nemuri was also doing the same… I saw all of his memories and got several locations of their bases around the world. But the most important thing I plucked out of his brain was the location of Trask Headquarters.
I was pretty sure that if Sublime was hiding then he would be in that base. This world's Sublime was slightly different than the original one. In the comic Sublime showed his face from time to time but the Sublime in this world liked to work from the shadows… I didn't know much about him but I didn't find anything about him anywhere… it was like he didn't even exist but I knew very well that wasn't the case.
There was one more thing, U-Men were only formed after the formation of Avengers but U-Men were already running around the world now. Before we could conduct more attacks, I needed to deal with John Sublime… I needed to at least mark that fucker. I can't afford to tip him off… the bastard will just go into hiding if he thinks that he is in danger.
"Did you find anything important other than those disgusting experiments?" Nemuri asked me with clear disdain in her voice and she dropped the lab guy. The guy was bleeding from his eyes, ears, and mouth… I was surprised that Nemuri didn't turn his brain into mush.
"Yes, I got the location of Trask Headquarters. I have to say they had hidden it pretty well… there were no records of such a place ever existing" I said to Nemuri, that is the reason I never found their headquarters even with our OverPowered laptop. After all, I can only find the things that exist in the records… and there were no records of that place. I can't go around looking at random buildings with the satellites.
"So, Trask Industries are involved in this? I hold 30 percent of their shares but I never attended their board meetings" Nemuri spoke with a shrug and picked up another lab guy. I wasn't surprised at all that Nemuri owned 30 percent of Trask Industries… if she didn't own anything there I would have been surprised. I also did the same and picked up the next guy.
"Legilimens" Nemuri said and the guy she was holding started to scream like a gutted pig. I just shrugged and used Legilimency on the guy I have been holding. I didn't find anything important in this guy's mind… it wasn't something important but I found that none of these guys knew their names… all of them worked in cycles. After this project was finished all five of them would have gone their own way and joined another group of scientists at a different place to conduct experiments.
"You take the last guy I am not interested in seeing them cut apart meta-humans" Nemuri dropped the guy on the floor and walked away with a disgusted look on her face… I shrugged my shoulders and picked up the last guy and ripped apart his mind… I didn't get any new information except this guy also knew about the base in Nebraska.
"Did you get anything new from the two of them?" I asked her and when I dropped the last guy on the floor.
Nemuri shook her name in denial. "Just some names and locations, I will write them down for you" Nemuri said and started to type on the mobile.
"Me too, but the last guy knew about Nebraska too" I told Nemuri who raised her eyebrow in my direction.
"Is that where we are going next?" Nemuri asked me while making faces.
"Yep, why the faces?" I asked her, it was quite odd for Nemuri to make faces.
"Well… I don't want to see brains in a tank and their eyes staring at you… I find it slightly disturbing" Nemuri grimaced and pointed towards the tanks where those brains were being kept. All of their eyes were turned in our direction… oh, I forgot that we have dropped the charms. Yeah… I kind of agree with Nemuri. This is slightly disturbing but I don't want them to live like this.
"Nemuri help me… let's put these guys out of their misery" I said to Nemuri in a solemn voice… she just nodded her head. A few Bombardas took care of the problem… "This place is giving me chills… I wanna get out of here" Nemuri said and both of us walked out of the factory but leaving this place like this won't do… I pointed both my arms towards the abandoned factory "Fiendfyre" as soon as the word escaped through my lips two Leviathans made of fire leaped towards the factory from my palms.
In a matter of a few seconds, the whole factory was engulfed in the cursed fire, Nemuri watched the cursed fire with slight awe in her eyes. "No matter how many times I see you using those cursed flames I find myself wet" Nemuri said in a husky tone while rubbing her thighs together.
"Nemuri, not now. We have one more place visit before we can delve into debauchery" I reprimanded Nemuri but she didn't seem to give up the idea… well, I know how her brain works… I would have been worried if she would have given up.

We returned to the truck and found that Emma was still knocked out. Nemuri disabled the notice-me-not on the car while I revived Emma. Emma immediately shot up from the seat and looked around with a confused look on her face until her eyes landed on both me and Nemuri. The confused look on her face changed into anger.
"How dare you?!! Why the hell did you do that to me?" Emma asked us, her voice was filled with rage. But before she could continue to glare at us her eyes landed on the burning factory which finally collapsed. If it would have been a normal fire then it would have taken at least several hours to bring down the factory.
"You burned down that place? Where are the meta-humans?" Emma spat out in an incredulous tone… there was still venom in her voice.
"No one was alive… all the meta-humans were already dead. They were going to leave in some hours" I lied with a straight face and technically it wasn't a lie except the 'leaving in some hours' part.
Emma just kept staring at me and turned her eyes towards Nemuri who also nodded her head in agreement, Emma looked heartbroken. She was clearly sad to hear that all the meta-humans were dead. Emma didn't say anything but I could see tears rolling down her cheeks… both I and Nemuri climbed into the truck and Nemrui turned the engine on.
It's much better like this… if I had told Emma what was done to the meta-humans in there she would have felt much worse. Nemuri drove the truck in complete silence… suddenly my phone chimed. I pulled out my phone and saw a message from Momo. 'We are out of warheads and several sights of meta-human brutality have been seen through the US' her message was short but I got everything I needed to know to know from there.
This was truly convenient for me… I couldn't have asked for a much better time than this. I have been mulling with the thought of how was I going to destroy the Trask headquarters without damaging everything else around. Their base was set up in the form of a government office and their Headquarters was completely underground. While reading their memories I got the Resident Evil vibes several times…
Now, I didn't need to worry about it. I could destroy the whole building and then burn down the whole city. Yes, but before anything like that, I needed to make an announcement… if people are going to push me I am going to push them back. I clearly gave them an ultimatum but they didn't listen to me… is it bad that I am going to destroy a whole city? Definitely yes. Is it really necessary? Definitely yes, after all, if I don't follow through with my threat the meta-humans will keep getting abused… now that we have used all the warheads I must follow up with my threat.
But first, I needed to send back Emma to Elysium. I can take Nemuri with me because she will be able to take care of herself but Emma won't be able to… even with our rough start I don't hate her and if I was in her place I would have done the same. After all, if you had the power to read people's minds are you not going to use that to know if the person in front of you is trustworthy or not.
Now, someone would say that I am being contradictive since I attacked Emma with Legilimency when she attacked me but I did that only because I was annoyed. I never said that she shouldn't do it… I just said that I don't like someone trying to read my mind. Call me hypocritical or vindicative but I am like this…
"Emma, both me and Nemuri have something to do. Why don't I send you back to the island?" I asked Emma, she was staring outside the window but her eyes were still glistening with tears.
"…Yes, I think that would be good" Emma said after slightly thinking. I pulled out a coin from my pocket and made it a portkey and handed it to Emma. I gave her the activation word and she was whisked away as soon as she said the activation word.
"So, how are we going to do this?" Nemuri asked me and now only I remembered that we needed to go to Nebraska and we were currently driving in Tehran.
"Hey!! Why the hell are we driving?" I asked Nemuri with an incredulous look on my face.
"…ah, I guess I kind of forgot. Let's go to Nebraska. The fatty will collect the car from here" Nemuri said with a blank look on her face. The face she made reminded me of Akisu from Sekirei.
"Let's go then" Nemuri said parking the car at the side of the road. She placed her hand on my shoulder and Apparated taking me side-along with her to Nebraska...
