While we are in Evo 246, I begin to have a hunch of what is actually going on, a new experiment is going on and they need guinea pigs… And most of us seem to be a perfect fit for this test. They lay every single one of us on a metallic table, held us down with belts, I could feel the cold temperature of the still on my pale skin, my stomach rumbled in response to fear.
Then I lay my eyes on something I've never seen before in my life. An alien ! The correctors are basically aliens too, the difference is that they have human structure and physiques. This alien in front of me is completely out of the context. He held a scalpel in his hand, with a needle on the other hand that consists of three large fingers. He has an oddly long face and one eye in the center of it, with a mouth that runs across his cheeks, making it very wide when he opens it.
He approached me in a very creepy way, and for the record, the whole room is very creepy, different test tube with human bodies in a green liquid placed inside it. I could hear the scream of the rest from a different room. Whatever is making them scream that way, I'm not ready to find out. I tried to free myself, but it was in vain, despite the fact that I knew I couldn't get free, belts are tightened but I had to try anyway.
" What the hell do you guys want from us !" I struggle harder to free myself again. But the creepy alien figure approaches me again without making a single word.
He placed the scalpel on my soft shaking stomach, with the intent of piercing through the skin. My stage fright at the moment has bled across the room, my panic attack was raising.
" Your life in return for the chance of my world is a worthy sacrifice. Just be glad and rejoice in it" the creepy alien rambles with a villainous smirk that crosses his evil face.
I tried to process his words but at the moment I'm just fending for my life from a deranged alien. And then a High End walked in. A female High End to be precise, about 5;6ft tall, dark in complexion, round face, with a cold expression. Technically, all High Ends have a cold expression. And worst of all she is wearing a dark long coat. I don't like people in long coats. Especially not a villain.
"What's delaying the process, need I remind you that time is something we do not have on our side ?" she said it solemnly and yet with an authoritative tone.
"My sincere apologies, I had to make sure the subject is fully ready for the test, but I give you my word…
"... Your word is of no use to me Exirom !, do the task which has been placed before you, else I'll show you how much I careless about your pathetic life !"she snapped, but still in a solemn tone
While this was going on, and I am still there praying the conversation goes, so I won't be dissected by an alien scientist as means of experiments. In a split moment, a spark of electricity was heard in the room. Exirom and the female High End noticed this and they looked straight into my eyes as a means of showing whether I was the one that did that or not.
"What ? I didn't do that… I'm literally tied down !" I responded to a question they were asking me through facial expression. Then they both exchanged looks.
"Carry on the process, I'll check out what's causing this, don't stop it, regardless of what happens" the female High End ordered as she moved towards the exit.
Before she reached the exit, a force collided with her, but in response, one could tell that she was on guard as she created a sword out of nowhere and clashed with the force causing one to hear a sound of two steels clashing.
"Guard the test subject with your life ! " she said as she threw her sword to an empty space in the room, at first, I thought she was crazy for throwing her weapon away, but then the sword clashed with an unseen force in the room which caused a fire spark. Then she charged towards the direction of the place at a speed that my eyes couldn't keep up with. She was fighting with an unseen adversary, I began to wonder whether she had gone nuts, but unfortunately, the sound of the fist clash "Thoom!" began to prove me wrong, everytime hear it.
How is she seeing this adversary of hers? While I was contemplating this thought, a tiny object pierced into my skin, and I could feel a liquid that was released into my body. And then the effect took place, everything became blurry and I fell into forceful slumber.
…
The first High End is seen carrying the Sojourner's body on his shoulder, as he moves through the ruins.
"This should be enough to prove my worth to Zephyron, maybe he could consider bringing me back to the inner circle." The High End mumbles to himself.
Then his feet began to overheat, suddenly a fire blasted out of his feet, propelling him to the mid air, and this process began to repeat until they reached the peak distance from the surface. And then the fire that came out of his feet became stable, using it as a means of flight. They were moving at the speed of sound. Causing shockwaves in the atmosphere.
Soon, they reached Vormirem, but this time they went inside from the top, and he burst into the fortress with the help of his strength, they landed into the second to the last floor of Vormirem. The High Ends that work there were shocked at first, each and everyone of them brought out their various battle weapons and some even activated their powers in battle stance, looking for the threat — the whole atmosphere was covered with smoke. Then everything became clearer and then they saw the first High End, holding the Sojourner's body. Then a female High End, in suit and a ponytail hairstyles and fair in complexion. She approaches the High End in disgust.
" Fin ! The hell are you doing here ? " She exclaimed and helped him get up properly, hesitating to help him a little bit.
"Hello there sweetheart" the First High End, whose name is Fin, responded with a smile.
" I see you've got the loose rat ? " She pointed at the Sojourner who was still unconscious.
" Ahh yes, I did, at the cost of Rebecca and Johnny's life…. They fought but this wanker showed no mercy." Fin replied with a sad tone.
The female High End face looks sad and one could tell she is angry but she couldn't lash out on an unconscious body.
" Bring him to the Jurists, I'll be glad to chop off his head once he gets executed" she said with a silent tone that screams anger. A fist clenched behind a calm face.
" Jane, we both know that's not your main intention, but I've got to regain my respect and position back, right beside Lord Zephyron" Fin explained as he dragged the Sojourner with him through the exit of the floor.
But then, a force collided with the door, and the female High End in Evo 246, who was fighting a mysterious adversary, was seen crashing right on the floor, her body is seen surrounded with lightning particles, as proof that she was just struck with lightning.
Jane and Fin haste towards her in shock, " Empress !" Jane exclaimed
" Stay out of this ! . . . He is mine ? " She yells out without looking at her face but stretching out her hand as a sign for her to stay where she is and at the same time looking through the exit that is covered with Fog. Then a silhouette of a figure could be seen in masculine shape, with a lightning sparkling from his eyes.
"Who the hell is that ? " Fin mumbles with a sign of shock in his eyes.
" Whatever he is, he is definitely one crazy powerful being. The fact that he got the Empress beat up this way is terrifying enough " the thought of fear raced down Jane's mind.
