195 CXCV. 813666 (1/2)

He looked up, staring at his companions near the tree, who were about to be brutally killed by that man.

Karl tried unnecessarily to help Reidar but was shot in the back, ending up face down next to him and Gridd.

”An inferior race... then why did you keep us alive? You need us, otherwise, you would never have come to Earth!” continued Dag, as the old woman clutched his neck in her hands, ready to strangle him.

”You're a fool. You're just lab rats. Another experiment, another planet added to our collection. Now you will return with us to Earth, our scientists will continue to analyze the anomaly in your blood” she replied, while Dag seemed to have exhausted his strength to fight.

”You have hurt my companions, my sister... you killed an innocent young woman, tearing her to shreds... you are the inferior race, devoid of values! You are the real enemy and you will pay for your crimes!”

Dag, looking down, grabbed the woman's arm with one hand.

”If that's how you think, I think I'll kill you. I'm sure my bosses won't mind knowing they have one problem less. You're just a genetic mistake, 813666, you're a mere anomaly!” exclaimed the old woman.

Dag looked up at her, looking her in the eye.

His right eye was so intense purple that it emitted a glow.

”My name is Dag!” he yelled, as the black liquid crept toward the woman's arm, wrapping it.

”Uhm?! What is this?” she said, immediately leaving Dag's neck, which after resting his feet on the ground continued to hold the woman tightly, to prevent her from escaping.

”How dare you! Stop now!” she continued.

The liquid completely wrapped her arm, then her shoulder, twisting around her chest.

The old woman knelt down and unleashed incredible power, trying to free herself from the grip.

The earth beneath their feet began to vibrate and the enemy's skin became snow-white.

”If I die, you will come with me!” yelled Dag, who squeezed the woman's arm so tightly that it broke, with a noise sound of broken bones.

She did not grimace with pain and, surrounded by the same magic barrier she had used just before, managed to get up, despite her body being half covered in the black liquid synthesized by Dag.

”This fluid... how did you manage to create it? I feel its inherent gravity growing exponentially! That's your real power, the scientists were right!” exclaimed she, who did not seem afraid of what was going to happen to her.

Meanwhile, the man who had just knocked out the others began to walk towards Dag, noting that his ally was in trouble.

As he made his way towards them, he opened his hand down and created a small purple sphere, floating on his palm, exuding incredible energy.

Reidar saw the scene and as the enemy was turned from behind, he rose from the ground in pain.
