Magus leapt at the creature and spun, bringing his Scythe around to slash the creature's throat as Lucca loaded her gun and took another two shots. Rebecca pushed off of her staff into a leap-kick as Glenn held out his blade and began to murmur, preparing for a leap slash.
The creature staggered backwards, the scythe missing it by an inch, holding out its hand as it caught one of the bullets, two others going into its chest area as it winced and howled and Rebecca's foot connected with the creature's head as it spun and landed on the ground with a thud.
Glenn then leapt into the air and landed, plunging the Masamune through the creatures middle as it squealed in extreme pain.
Glenn withdrew his blade and leapt back as they all stood back and watched the, supposedly dying, creature.
Suddenly, the creature twitched as it slowly stood up, its wounds closing as its sounds became more human...it howled and threw out its arms as it began to change shape and form...and as it turned around the four heroes could simply stare in disbelief.
There, standing in front of them, was a spitting image of Dalton.
"You...you pathetic little insects..." Dalton said with a hiss.
"You ruined me...you destroyed my life...and now look what I have become!"
Dalton's arm morphed and re-morphed, growing large and then small as he talked.
"I used to be a Zeal elite...one of the chosen to become immortal...now every day is like living death...a hellhole I must experience, and its all your fault!"
Magus snarled.
"You were greedy Dalton, you grabbed for what you couldn't have, and you got burned in the process..."
Lucca simply stood there flabbergasted.
"How...how did you end up in this time period?" She asked quietly.
Dalton looked to her with a snarl.
"After the accident on the epoch...I was pulled into a time portal...and brought to this dark place...I was then subjected to terrifying experiments, where they turned me into what I am now...and the horror is that there are more like me, everywhere."
Rebecca stepped forward and held her staff to Dalton's chin.
"Where is Anshal? Have you seen him?"
Dalton stepped back with a menacing grimace.
"When did the cave woman get the ability to speak? I have not seen this Anshal, though it is said he is the mastermind of these horrific experiments."
Suddenly, Glenn stepped forward and whispered something in Lucca's ear. She nodded and went to Rebecca, whispering it as she took it with some reluctance, and then went to Magus.
"Magus...the concensus is to offer Dalton a place with our group for now, so he can take revenge for his horrors...what do you think?"
Magus stood there, amazed that the proposition was even on the table.
