The clan head didn't just stand in his place and wait for Seven.His first step always had incredible speed behind it, but the rest of his movement were normal at best. Seven avoided his right and like Iris instructed he punched him in the side, then in the stomach.It didn't have much effect but man does it feel nice to finally land a hit!Iris yelled at him to get a hold on Hir while he had the chance but he refused to listen. The head tried to stab his claws into Seven's back but both his arms were deflected followed by an apricot to the jaw that rattled his brain and made him stumble backward. Before he fell Seven wrapped his arms around his waist hugging him like the giant plushy he is."I'm taking everything you got, don't hold a grudge, alright!!?"Seven had yet to notice how strong he really is. Even without using his powers, just putting a little strength in his arms was enough to make the clan head desperate to free himself. You can't really blame him as the fingers in both
Feeling stuck in a corner, Hir stopped bothering with the human stealing energy from him. He released his power healing his broken bones and growing back his fallen fangs at an unbelievable speed. His fur turned snow white, all the blue stripes he had vanished and blue energy sparked all over his body. For a moment Iris noticed that they’re able to draw ten times the amount they did before, but that didn’t last long. While Seven was still holding him down, Hir suddenly vanished."Where th-" a sharp pain ran through Seven's left and the next thing he realized was him slamming into the ceiling. As he made his way back to the ground he was met with another attack. Though he was able to guard against it this time, that did little to reduce the speed or force and he ended up rolling on the floor after a rather painful impact sound."Fugh! You really caused me some trouble just now, didn't you?" With his left hand on his right shoulder, Hir slowly walked toward Seven while rotating his ar
Sector twenty one, the Verta clan’s mothership. Lilia.“Damn it!” Brayan cursed by my side, his expression twisting with anger.“This doesn’t look good…” Erika said in a whisper, her eyes shifting toward me.We were hiding behind a corner as a number of Herara shot at us from down the hallway. It was quite the bothersome situation; we’re outnumbered five to one, which normally wouldn’t have been a problem, but since we didn’t have our weapons it’s much more difficult to advance. I couldn’t just charge at them without my spear.As the storm of bullets flashed through the hallway I began to lose faith in my choice. When it was time to split up it was decided that I would accompany Brayan and Erika to the ship while Logan would go look for our weapons and something else we could use to support Seven. There are two reasons behind us choosing this course of action. The first is that Logan wanted me to check on Blue to make sure she is fine. The second reason is Erika’s condition. With the
Sector twenty one. The Verta clan’s mothership. “It is very nice to make your acquaintance, honorable Zesionien warriors.” Standing at the entrance was a female Herara of a small stature. The first thing that caught Lilia’s eyes was the snow white hair flowing behind her, then the tail that seemed much fuzzier than that of the only other female Herara she had met so far. Her eyes had a silver color that gleamed with intelligence and wisdom. Her skin was pale, almost translucent with a hint of pink on her cheeks.The female Herara walked into the room and the door closed behind her. Her eyes shifted from Brayan to Erika then to Lilia, a small smile drawn on her lips all the while.“You seem to be in such a dire situation.” She said.Lilia pointed her gun, but the female Herara didn’t even flinch. That told them she wasn’t just some delicate civilian who’s sheltered from danger.“What do you want?” Lilia asked. “Is that how you show appreciation to the ones who help you?” The female
“It’s safe.” The white haired Herara motioned for Lilia to move.Though they didn’t have to worry about the guards in these parts of the mothership, they still had to be careful of being spotted by the civilians. Orchid had given Lilia a cloak to cover herself just in case, however the stench of the blood covering her was basically a brush that painted a trail behind them. No matter how careful they were it was only a matter of time before someone notices.Thankfully the female Herara, Orchid Snowhite, already had a plan to deal with that problem.Once they arrived at what looked like a dead end, Orchid kneeled down in front of a discolored part of the floor. She took out what looked like a small knife and stabbed it at the edge of the circular spot. The next moment a hole opened and a cylindrical shaped object came out and began wondering around.“It’s a bit cramped but you don’t have to worry.” Orchid said before jumping into the hole. “We won’t stay in for too long.”The two crawle
A couple of minutes later Orchid returned. The soldiers looking for Lilia and the others had anticipated that they’d try to reach the docks and positioned themselves there, however the white Herara was able to convince them to go away somehow.The two had only a few minutes before the guards return and Erika was running out of time so they had to work quickly and get back to her."Blue!! Where are you?" Lilia called once they were inside the ship. "Blue~! It’s me, Lilia! Where are you~!"Lilia walked through the ship calling for the little female Herara, but no answer came. It was dark, the only source of illumination were the small lamps above each door but they weren’t of much help. The reason behind that was the place the ship was left in. That part of the docks is usually reserved for captured crafts, to prevent any escape beyond this point it was built like a trap that completely shuts down the systems of the ships docked there. The way to regain control was something Lilia had
"Eh?" Lilia couldn't help being surprised. “A ghost… you say?""Un…" Blue nodded once, her eyes cast down.She just told another person that she saw a ghost, something hard to believe when an adult says it let alone when a child does. Blue was a smart child so she understood why others might not believe her and because of that she chose to keep it a secret until now."This… ghost, what does it look like?" Whether she believed her or not wasn't what's important, that's what Lilia though. She wanted Blue to feel like she could trust her, that’s why listening to what she has to say was the right course of action. Blue's eyes opened wide, her little cheeks flushed with joy."Un! She is a little short, has blue hair, and wears a white dress.”She?... Lilia paused to think. Is this ghost… female? She suddenly felt an ache in her heart, her anxiousness rising a bit."A little short, has blue hair and wears a white dress…" Lilia mumbled to herself A ghost with those descriptions… could it b
Sector twenty one, the Verta clan’s, Seven. It might have been that rumored effect where you start seeing things in slow motion when your death is near. My thoughts suddenly accelerated as I watched the tiger faced alien charge at me.I was about to give up. As much as I hated to admit it, it was more like me to just give up. After all I'm not some space fighter chasing orange balls to revive my dead friends. I'm just a below average shut in who makes his eyes suffer by staring at a screen for days rather than hours, no matter how much I try roleplaying as this strong fearsome hero who doesn't flinch when fighting aliens, there is a limit I'm going to eventually reach.I mean, I did some pretty amazing things, right? I went toe to toe with the leader of some space pirate cult that worships a mythical monster who I also just happen to have survived an encounter with, can't I give it a rest already? I’ve already used most of my reserves and no matter what I do I will eventually lose. T
