Chapter Text
The Collector was thrashed around violently as Louie pulled himself through the vents with his tentacles, suctioning the walls and throwing themselves further through the cramped corridors. But as he continued, the corridor narrowed tighter and tighter. Louie's tentacles began to crowd the small space, getting less and less space to move before he was eventually jammed into the vents. Louie struggled to free himself, but finally gave in and released the Collector from his grip and pushed him forward, motioning towards the path ahead.
"No, wait, I can't leave you here!" the Collector said as he desperately tried to pull Louie along, grunting with effort as they were unable to move him even an inch.
Louie pushed him away with one of his tentacles, repeatedly motioning for him to go as suddenly, he passed out, the strange gas seeped through beneath him.
The Collector quickly scampered away from the smog as it closed in on him. He had lost sight of where he was supposed to go, as he turned left, right, left.

He desperately crawled further down the vents as the smog spread in every direction.
