Chapter 23: Meeting The Leader
Saero's view
I was trying to catch my breath, looking at the Hybrid that was lying unconscious before me. It was difficult getting close, but I managed to get in a powerful kick that knocked her into the wall and knocked her out cold, similar to what happened with Anni. After I finally caught my breath, I continued moving forward, eventually finding a large room. Shortly after, I heard a few more doors open and saw as the others ran in. "Very impressive.", I heard a voice say. I then turned to see a male Octoling that appeared to be in his 40s.
"I thought the Hybrids would be enough to stop you.", he said. "I'm guessing you're the one in charge here?", I asked. "That's right.", he said, "And I'm guessing you're here to stop me?" "Pretty much.", I told him as I readied my SR Squiffer. "What you did to Anni and the others isn't right!", Nira said, readying her Hero Shot.
Just then, the ground began to shake and the roof opened up. I looked up to see Octavio's machine, fully repaired. The Octoling then jumped into it. "We scavenged Octavio's machine from Octo Valley.", he said, "Not only did we repair it, we gave it an upgrade." As he said that, multiple panels opened up, revealing miniature missiles that were docked and ready to fire. "So, Agents, do you still think you can beat me?!", He asked. We all readied are weapons for our final battle.
