Chapter 3. The creature within
Gwen and Max had been looking around the place for awhile and had passed more and more body's some even had guns on them but Max pauses and bent down to look at something closer
"Hah I know this emblem these are the forever knights there a group that like to meddle in space technology probably noticed the omnitrix and wanted it" Max said standing back up as Gwen looked around she spotted something
"Hey Grandpa there some stairs over here" Gwen said and nodding Max walked over towards the stairs and together they started climbing up them but Max paused and held out his hand stopping Gwen
"Hold up" Max said and they listened as the sound of something mechanical walked around above them
"I think it's one of Vilgax's lets take this slowly" Max said walking forward with his gun forward and right as he spotted the red robot in the hall something dark rushed out of somewhere and ripped its head off with its bare hands then quickly rushed away before Max could really spot it
"Well at least it's helping us for know" Gwen said looking at where the creature went then they heard a crash and yelling in the direction as more sounds of crashes and destruction filled the room
"Huh so let's not go in there" Max said looking at the door before sighing and inching forward he opened the door only to stare on the other side was a open room although it was open because the wall had been blown out as the small creature ripped a drones head of with some kind of Crystal sword that colored its arm then Max spotted something that sent a jolt down his back there over by the wall was Vilgax who was trying to pull a green crystal out of some kind of gun as he glared at the dark figure that was decimating his robotic forces
"Grandpa what's going on" Gwen whispered trying to see as she peaked past and saw the dark figure as it rushed forward cutting through one of the robots as it twisted around allowing its cloak to spin as it rushed forward slamming its crystal covered arm into where Vilgax had been but the giant alien had quickly dodged out of the way as his mercenary came flying in on his jetpack only to get a surprise when the creature hissed and sent a spike of the crystal his way cutting the jet fuel on the aliens jetpack and making him spin out of control and as it came closer to the creature it raised its arm and with a blur it rushed forward and cut down slashing the bounty hunters neck off causing the head and body to go apart and as the head rolled next to its feet the jetpack bropeled body slammed into the wall as the jet back died leaving just Vilgax and the creature
"Hurr you annoying little cur f I will rip your innards out of that annoying little body of your s Ill Ill" Vilgax yelled but he tensed up as the creature moved forward its arm glinting in the little sunlight flitting through the room as the aliens blood flashed on the crystal and was absorbed inside it
"You you will die here" Vilgax hissed aiming down and with a blast of his gun the floor caved in sending all of them falling including the two watching from the door and as they got up they watched as Vilgax retreated and the creature stood up and turned towards them and rushed them screeching as its arm started heading down for Gwen who instantly went to reach for her book when the blade froze inches from her neck and opening her eyes she stared at glowing green eyes then before she could see more the creature dropped something and rushed off and breathing hard Gwen looked down and carefully picked up the card
"Well that was interesting I wonder why it left us this" Max said and shrugging Gwen looked around then walked towards a door and pushed the card into a slot and instantly the door opened even if it was slowly
"Well either way let's see if we can't find out who knows maybe Bens over here" Gwen said and nodding Max started walking ahead of her as both of them wondered why Vilgax had been fighting that creature as said creature had walked off as carefully he pulled down his long sleeved shirt and recovered his arm where a long lasting burn mark would forever be
