The first had grown back before she’d started on the third.
Ah, right, regenerative powers.
Try severing the connection of the spines?
Though maybe that would mess with the control system and kill Pagoda.
“He heals,” Bonesaw informed her. “Two regenerators in one. There’s only one good way to stop him. Try again.”
Messing up the control system and thus killing him?
Pain. She inflicted pain on Pagoda. No reaction. She’d have to reach into his brain to make it so he really felt pain again. She tried atrophying his muscles, with no luck. Anything she did was undone nearly as fast as she could inflict it.
Quite a damage sponge, this one.
“Five seconds,” Bonesaw announced. “Four.”
Sending signals to his arms to get him to move. No. The metal frame overrode anything she could do with her power to control him.
The pressure is on.
“Three.”
Amy used the only option available to her. She disconnected him from the metal frame that Bonesaw used to control her subjects. She could sense it as the metal shifted into motion around his heart. Not needles, as there had been for Murder Rat, but small canisters of fluid.
Yeah, needles probably wouldn’t work against the regeneration.
Also, where exactly is his heart? Which chest, which ribcage is it behind?
“Two… one… zero point five… Ah, there we go.”
Pagoda lurched backward and broke contact with Amy, her power no longer giving her an insight into what was happening with him.
So what was the fluid? Explosives?
He sat down, using one hand to prop himself up. A moment later he slumped over, his eyes shutting. His breathing stopped.
Hm, no. Some sort of poison, I guess.
