Chapter Twenty-Seven
One
"About time you got back!" One yelled to the others once the portal closed. He, Tac, and Six were all battling against a couple of xenos "Who's the new guy?"
"I am Phoenix," Phoenix stated.
"Kurt said you would be coming," Tac remarked.
"He's back!" Nine cheered.
"He, Baba, and the Creeper returned a little after you all left," Six stated. "You should see the Creeper in action. He and B.W. are fighting the Serpentine Six all by themselves. Also, I don't know how, they freed Visionary."
"Where is Kurt?" Two asked.
"He and Baba are on the roof fighting Sinnerstar," One stated. "Apparently Sinnerstar was also with the Six and their army. Eight is currently trying to fight the Clover. He might need some help soon. Also Kurt managed to find the potion to permanently give Hugo his body back. We have undead for days." They heard a big boom of something large hitting the ground. "Eight just told me that he neutralized the Clover."
"One, I need you to come wiz me for a second," Phoenix told him.
One followed him, leaving the others to fillet xenos left and right. "Why do you need me?" he asked.
"I need to contact Cthulhu. You can summon me a squid right?"
"I can try."
"Drink zis." Phoenix gave him some sort of potion.
"What is it?"
"A potion devised by Cthulhu zat allows for instant squid creation." One didn't see anything wrong with that so he drank up. When he finished it, power coursed through him. "Just concentrate on creating a squid, and it shall happen." One did as told and soon a squid appeared. Phoenix started to mutter and incantation. When he was finished the squid felt different.
"Hello," the squid greeted, "I am ze demon lord Cthulhu. You must be one of Kurt's experiments. Each one of you give of a distinct aura. It is easier to tell some of your auras apart from other auras. Yours is one of ze more complex ones. You have no idea of your true potential. Given enough training you could access Kurt's most complex ability. Ze Animal Biodome."
"What is that?" One asked.
"Kurt will end up telling you about it," Cthulhu responded. "Now why did you contact me Phoenix?"
"Ze plan is in motion," Phoenix replied. "Loki and his children are spying for us." This caused One to raise an eyebrow at Phoenix. "Once ze battle is over I will explain it to everyone. Speaking of which, we should go back and help."
