"Now, let's go to the van. There's a city we need to protect," Clarinassa said.That same afternoon, Dim-Dim, Clarinassa, Icaros, Jay, Florence, and Xavera set off for Toronto.Their driver grumbled that the journey would take at least 9 hours to arrive, possibly in the dark, with the monster already active. So, he would drop off Clarinassa, Xavera Mathers, and Jay Oliver at the airport so they could arrive in the city earlier and handle the situation as best they could, while Dim-Dim, Icaros, and Flo followed later with the van."I actually have a million questions about where you've been, Icaros, causing us to be late for almost an hour—and we're all docked points—and by the end of the month, our pay will be cut by $100 each—but I guess I'm more concerned about your well-being," Flo said as they sat in the van, preparing to sleep through the journey to recharge. "Hey, are you okay?"Icaros, reloading ammunition into his weapons, shrugged. "Sort of. Why do you ask, Flo?""It's because
"The monster is heading towards the van. Towards you, guys. It will reach there in less than a minute."With panic, Dim-Dim looked around, put on his infrared glasses, then transformed into an Eurasian eagle-owl and flew high into the sky.The monster spotted him and leaped from tree to tree straight towards him. Its screams were ear-piercing."Dim-Dim, this monster is extremely fierce, please be careful," Clarinassa's anxious voice sounded through the earpiece in his ears as Dim-Dim searched for a tree to land."Perhaps it's pregnant," Xavera said. "I suspect from the excessive lubricant fluid on its feet.""Oh. You're right," Clarinassa said, and suddenly Dim-Dim became terrified."In that case, we can't kill it," Florence Taslim said. "The researchers want us to capture the pregnant type A monster alive. Its purpose for them is unclear... yet.""Well, that's if we don't die first," muttered Icaros. "Clark, call headquarters to request Damian's assistance. Capturing a pregnant type
When the world spun back into focus, Dim-Dim felt an unpleasant sting in his wings, and he croaked weakly.Beside the cage where he was confined, there was a fat American short hair cat with a scab behind one of its ears. The cat was eating. But when Dim-Dim made his bird sound, the cat's attention shifted entirely."For a moment, they stared at each other, both feeling threatened. However, it didn't last long, as a moment later a man in a white jacket entered the room with his paramedics."The Illicitor is in pain. Please get the sedative again around ...""... Is this enough, Doc?""Yes, that's enough, thank you ..."Dim-Dim struggled to follow their conversation, especially when the American short hair cat seemed to want to pounce on him now."Please move Miracle. He's scaring the Illicitor," the doctor ordered again, and immediately a hand moved the cat's cage away from Dim-Dim.Dim-Dim saw that the doctor was about to open his cage, and he immediately slid out and flew away clums
"The woman said, 'I'll get straight to the point. I'm asking you to transform into a monster, Dim-Dim Damisch.'"Dim-Dim blinked, surprised. "I—I can't—""You can," Professor Clark insisted. "According to your test records, you can transform into any animal in the world, even altering their sizes. The only thing you cannot transform into is mythological creatures."Dim-Dim swallowed hard and shook his head. "I need to know more about monsters," he said. "I have to imagine what they're like.""In that case, you'll need to meet the Type A monster that our Venator managed to capture, even though I don't think you need to because you've already met them three times before," Professor Clark said. Then she smiled sweetly. "But you're allowed to adopt one of its offspring."Huh?Dim-Dim looked at the middle-aged woman in horror. "What do you mean, professor?""Of course, I don't mean for you to keep it at home. You'll only be allowed to come to the laboratory and name one monster offspring a
The journey from New Jersey to Colorado took at least 30 hours. Honestly, it was the longest road trip Dim-Dim had ever taken. He didn't know what to do to kill time, and all he could think of was playing games with Velicia. Unfortunately, Velicia was very serious about her first mission involving Type A monsters and refused to play games because she wanted to discuss tactics with herself—like thinking about what color to dye her hair.V: "What about you? Didn't you ever think about wanting to transform into any animal before doing a mission?" Velicia had asked twenty minutes ago via the TIC message box, and now Dim-Dim found himself nervous.Of course, Dim-Dim always decided to become the most powerful animals in the food chain. But maybe he was wrong. He should have decided to transform into the most crucial animal in this mission, besides being a monster. But the problem was, what was the most crucial animal for this mission?For the first time that week, he had contacted Mr. Smith
When hearing the name Junai Zore, the leader of the 'Animal Lovers' or 'Monster Lovers' group, Dim-Dim immediately felt nervous. However, the monster within him was even more jittery.Filled with feelings of resentment and irritation, the strongest creature on earth was not ready to be captured by humans. He had never felt threatened by humans like this before."Relax, Monster," Dim-Dim reassured the creature. "This is part of the plan. Calm down.""You are human. Humans would not understand," the monster said, then retreated far from Dim-Dim's mind. 'I hate humans."Dim-Dim was stunned. Confused."Hey, this type A monster seems so calm, doesn't it?" one of the captors said."Looks like it just chowed down, man... am I right?" another replied. "Yo, Gus! Peep this Type A monster, it's chill as heck, ain't it?""Ugh. As long as it's not sick. That damn veterinarian has been refusing to cooperate lately and pretending to be sick.""I'm curious why Junai Zore hasn't offed him yet.""Of co
"Haha. Do your job first, then you can eat, Justin Damisch."The intense rage consumed Dim-Dim so fiercely, so ferociously, so urgently that Dim-Dim suddenly felt an overwhelming nausea, completely unrelated to the dragonfly body he was currently inhabiting. This is what is called Vendetta.Dim-Dim flew towards a narrow and quiet corridor, then transformed back into himself.He hastily tapped the communication device embedded in his ear."Damian, Damian!" he whispered in panic."Hullo! What's up?" Florence was the first to respond to his call."Dim-Dim, are you okay?" Clarinassa asked, while Dim-Dim struggled to control his rapid breath."He doesn't sound okay," said Oriyan. "Hey, Damisch, your brother's looking for you... Put the pie down first.""Dim-Dim, why are you short of breath?" Xavera asked."No, not like that," said Dim-Dim. "I feel like I want to throwing up," he confessed.Dim-Dim had just seen his father, sick and imprisoned, subjected to improper food, treated with disda
"Nullify?" Dim-Dim asked, horrified. "Do you mean, to vanish? Is he really going to make my powers vanish?""Just for an hour," his father said, mournfully. "But usually Junai Zore's victims don't last long, because, you know. Superpowered kids are turned into monster feed. Oh, thank goodness he still has some mercy on me. Thank God."Dim-Dim stared at his father in horror. Not because of the fate that befell those unfortunate people, that he already knew. But he was terrified to see his father genuinely believe that Junai Zore still had mercy."Stop it, you're making me worried," Dim-Dim said. "Father, just eat, please. Replenish your energy."His father said nothing more, as he began to eat eagerly.Dim-Dim closed his eyes, trying to calm his raging anger."Damian will come," Dim-Dim said to himself. "So we'll both be fine."But not fifteen minutes later, Junai Zore returned. "Justin, sedate those monsters and help move them to the truck." The man tossed a piece of red meat at his f
