No Wattpad this time because out of the three, it's the one with the least amount of interaction for the lack of a better term.

Also, this story will be going on a hiatus until I can finish season D. I would say writer's block, but ideas are there for my other two big stories I'm working on (Unicronians and MPA) so can't really say that.


"It is nice to meet you, Miss Xylene," Dr Psychobos telepathed, making a brief nod-like gesture with his right claw.

There was a moment of odd silence before Xylene said, "My pod broke on impact. If it did have the necessary tools to track the Omnitrix, it wouldn't help us. It would be too damaged. However, I didn't notice any damage with your's."

"Khyber suggested a stronger escape pod as a safety measure. Originally, I wasn't too sure, but here we are," Psychobos hummed. "If the Nemetrix is on the same planet, I'll be able to track it. I put a small tracking system, a planet-wide one, which isn't much but Khyber was insistent on some tracker system."

"You two are close," Xylene commented. Psychobos began to laugh psychically, not telepathically. Xylene paused and stared at the laughing Cerebrocrustacean.

He calmed himself before telepathing, "Forgive me, it's just…" The Cerebrocrustacean psychically chuckled.

"No need," Xylene stated, turning her head to look at Psychobos from an odd angle.

Psychobos once again calmed himself and telepathed, "Very well. I'll start up the tracker. I have no guarantee the Omnitrix and Nemetrix will be at the same place."

Xylene looked towards her pod and said, "I might be able to find a chip-hold of the Omnitrix signal in my pod. If there is one, it'll most likely be damaged."

"But it's better than nothing," the crab-like finished. The Uxorite nodded.

Something suddenly surged, bursting out of the snow. The maroon and dark orange robot looked around, red eyes gleaming. It quickly noticed the two open pods and scampered over. The robot looked at the pods, releasing a scanning red light.

After a good minute, it stated, "Negative. Goal items not here. Unable to track goal items. Changing objective…"

It looked back at the pods and let out another scanning light, this time yellow.

More time passed before it stated, "Secondary objective active. DNA scanner successful. Activating DNA searcher. Beginning search." It turned before it began walking off.

-(…)-

"How did we get from Utah to Tennessee in two days?" Gwen asked.

"Determination," EightEight deadpanned. Gwen just stared at her while Ben and Kevin were off to the side. The maybe-human looked over while Ben was focused on the video on the screen.

"Why are we in Tennessee, anyways?" Kevin asked. Ben noticed and paused the video, turning his head to look.

"I doubt you have, but have any of you heard of the Undertown Network?" EightEight gurgled, glancing back at them.

"No," Kevin answered, shaking his head. Ben and Gwen joined him, staring at the disguised Sotoraggian.

She looked back at the road and informed, "In the continents you call North and South America, somehow the Nashville Undertown became the largest one on the two continents and became a center for travel between other Undertowns and various non-Earthen supplies. The Undertown Network has the Nashville Undertown as its main hub, but it's also a great place to see how well different cultures melt together. I've heard it has been called a mini Omnium-Pourri, but I don't know how true that is since I've never been to the partially artificial planet."

"That sounds cool," Gwen commented.

"Is it why Earth is considered a melting pot planet?" Ben asked, leaning forward a bit.

"I'm not the best creature to ask about history, it's something you would need to find on the Extranet," EightEight replied. Ben nodded.

"Assuming we are going to the Nashville Undertown, why?" Gwen asked.

There was a bit of silence before EightEight answered, "When the Omnitrix was just concepts and rumors, it spread that the Omnitrix's creator made said device to allow creatures to walk in the bodies of other creatures, to unite the Galaxy. I am unsure if what I'm about to say is true, but if the Omnitrix was made for that purpose, then I suspect that the Predatrix was made with the idea of preservation. Preserving the species the Omnitrix dare not touch, so even they can be united together. Again, I have no clue if that is true or not."

Silence fell upon the vehicle as it continued on.

The elevator stopped, making a sound of releasing steam. EightEight put the ID mask on the dashboard as the doors opened. Gwen, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looking out the window as the massive, underground city was revealed. Ben and Kevin looked on from where they were sitting, observing as well.

A white, fluffy, humanoid creature with a bronze feather and wearing an odd trench coat uniform came up to the vehicle. It brought its long claws behind its back as it said, "I am Har~rison. Welcome to the Nashville Under~rtown. Ver~ry interesting party. State name, species, and r~reason, please."

EightEight immediately took out a piece of paper and handed it over. The strange creature tilted its head and took the paper. It read the paper, the single feather twitching every now and again.

Harrison then said, "Ah, Sotor~raggian. Make sense why on paper. Will take info to Moor~re. Place for par~rking up ahead. Have nice stay!" The strange creature walked away and the vehicle started off.

Once the vehicle was parked and the keys passed to another one of Harrison's species but the white was black, they truly entered the Undertown. Compared to Sparksville, this was much grander and more active. Creatures able to fly flew around, carrying different objects or seemingly talking with others. Lights lit up the hidden city, making it seem like it wasn't underground in the first place. Otherworldly creatures of all shapes and sizes and statures were all around, speaking and walking, randomly or with purpose. Roads were lined with buildings, each marked with their own use and services. All sorts of noises filled the air, from different languages to music to the buzzing of natural movement. Different cultures mixed in a blend that was both beautiful and… odd, some places managing to show many cultures excellently, some not so much, while the few that were exclusively one culture were clearly meant for whatever purpose they served in said culture.

EightEight could tell just from the Wyrmlings's overwhelming curiosity that there was a possibility they would stay for a while.

"Genetrix," Xylene muttered, looking out at the city. Psychobos hummed. Between his claws was a small machine with a screen that showed two overlaying dots.

"Impressive they're able to hide from the natives with… this," Psychobos commented, motioning with a claw to the massive underground city they were descending to.

"How are we supposed to find them when it's like this?" Xylene muttered.

Psychobos began to telepath a reply when the elevator slowed. He went silent as it stopped and opened. A humanoid, furry, black creature came over to them, a bronze feather coming from its head and wearing an Earthen variation of the guide coats (originally from Omnium Pourri, meant for those who work the subway there, mimicking the tracks there).

"Welcome to the Nashville Under~rtown. You may call me Emily. May I please get each of your~r species, names, and why you are her~re?" the Inmetsel stated.

The Uxorite went first, "I am Xylene, an Uxorite."

Psychobos then telepathed, "And I am Psychobos Genemark, a Cerebrocrustacean. We are both new to this planet but have heard about how this place is helpful."

Emily nodded, a strange mouth line on its face before it said, "Thank you for~r being cooper~rative. Enjoy your~r time her~re." It moved out of the way and allowed the two into the city.

Once they were a ways away from the Inmetsel, Xylene quietly questioned, "How did you do that so easily?"

"Minor mind reading," Psychobos telepathed. His eyes went back to the machine in his claws. Xylene's eyes glowed and she lifted the two, getting a startled chirp from the Cerebrocrustacean, before landing them on top of a building.

He looked at her, to which Xylene replied, "It would be hard to hear each other down there."

Psychobos stared at her for a moment before he stated, "If you wish to believe that. Let me zoom in further, then we should get a near exact point where the Omnitrix and Nemetrix are."

As the Cerebrocrustacean did that, Xylene looked at the city and commented, "I wonder why the Omnitrix and Predatrix-"

"Nemetrix."

"-are in the same place all the time, assuming we've been tracking them correctly," Xylene finished, ignoring Psychobos's interruption.

There a beat before Psychobos finished and the two went back to searching.

-()-

Out of all the places EightEight expected to be mostly empty, this was not one of them. The building was what was called a 'holoworld', a partial hologram partial artificial recreation of a planet's environment. When they entered, the curiosity of the Wyrmlings wasn't hidden, which didn't surprise her. Ben had gotten into videos of different planets extremely quickly, while Gwen was obviously curious about her transformations and Kevin with creatures with electrical powers in general. Asani was there, but she was content with sleeping in Kevin's arms.

Currently, the quartet were in a section that showed a planet from the Ringa System called Ringa Haine. Kevin didn't seem to like Ringa Haine very much, while the two watch wielders were more on the curious side. (In her personal opinion, EightEight didn't like Ringa Haine's dominant species of those weird love-snake-genie things, especially when the predators also looked like genies.) EightEight saw a movement at the tip of her vision and she glanced over. An Uxorite and a purple Cerebrocrustacean. She looked back at the Wyrmlings.

The Sotoraggian then blinked and turned to look at the Uxorite and Cerebrocrustacean again. The Uxorite was staring back at her while the Cerebrocrustacean was seemingly telepathically communicating with the Uxorite. The Uxorite moved slightly, replying to whatever the Cerebrocrustacean said. A few moments later and the Uxorite fully turned to face the Cerebrocrustacean.

EightEight looked back at the Wyrmlings. The curiosity from Ben and Gwen were mostly burnt out and they had changed to whispering to each other. From what she heard, they seemed to be discussing possible abilities of the native Ringa Haine species. Kevin was somewhat in their conversation, but was mostly listening to the two cousins talking.

She looked back towards the Uxorite and the Cerebrocrustacean. The Uxorite was back to staring at her, but the Cerebrocrustacean was still seemingly saying something. It was hard to tell if a Cerebrocrustacean was talking due to the species preferring directed telepathy.

The Cerebrocrustacean began to approach them, the Uxorite following it. EightEight tapped Gwen, getting her attention, then the other two's attention. They looked in the same direction as the Sotoraggian, seeing the two creatures.

"Hello," EightEight gurgled once the Uxorite and the Cerebrocrustacean were close.

"Hello to you as well," the Cerebrocrustacean telepathed.

"Do you know of the Omnitrix?" the Uxorite asked. EightEight moved a hand to a talon as the Wyrmlings stared and Gwen moved a hand over said device.

Seeing the reaction, the Cerebrocrustacean telepathed, "No need to be so direct, Xylene. Forgive her, there was… some complications with both of our missions that impeded us. I am Psychobos Genemark."

A beat.

"The fuck," the Sotoraggian suddenly said. Xylene just blinked in complete confusion while Gwen and Kevin stared at her. Asani thrilled slightly, glancing out before burrowing herself again.

Psychobos was about to do something in reply, but Ben just stepped forward slightly. He looked at the boy, who lifted the arm with the Predatrix and asked, "If she's interested in the Omnitrix, then…?"

He smiled at the unspoken question. There was something off about the boy, but it was something underlying the core and could be exposed with time. Psychobos telepathed, "The Nemetrix is my creation. At the moment, I have no reason to not trust you as its wielder. You are?"

Something intangible seemed to click.

The Predatrix (Nemetrix?) wielder lowered his arm, stepped closer to the Cerebrocrustacean, and answered, "Ben." The other two Wyrmlings came more into view.

"I am EightEight," the Sotoraggian gurgled, moving her hand off of the talon.

Gwen looked at EightEight, who nodded. The girl then added, "I'm Gwen."

"I'm Kevin," the maybe-human said. He lifted the Nosedeenian in his arms slightly. "This is Asani." The Nosedeenian let out a tiny squeak at the movement, but settled.

"Shall we move to somewhere more… private?" Psychobos suggested.

-(…)-

Somehow, they decided on an abandoned building near one of the walls of the Undertown. The outside was still standing, but the inners were gutted with nothing but support. Maybe an old store that failed or a project that was never finished. It was the edge of the town, maybe a forgotten storage.

"Why did you want to move somewhere out of the way?" EightEight gurgled.

At Xylene's still confused look, Psychobos seemingly translated it for her. While Xylene processed what she was just informed of, Psychobos said, "I am sure Xylene has questions for the Omnitrix wielder, as do I for the Nemetrix wielder. It would be better if the questions were asked in a place where not many others would be."

"The universe doesn't need to know that children wield the two most powerful devices in the universe," Xylene stated.

The Sotoraggian gurgled, "If you want to ask questions, all of us will be there as well."

"Understandable," Psychobos nodded.

"I don't understand Sotoraggian," Xylene deadpanned. The Cerebrocrustacean looked at her and seeming telepathed something. After a few moments, the Uxorite nodded. She looked at Gwen and asked, "How did you obtain the Omnitrix?"

"It fell right in front of me," Gwen answered.

Xylene paused at the answer as Psychobos telepathed, "I am safe in assuming the same happened to you with the Nemetrix, Ben?" The boy nodded, staring at the crab-like.

"What have you done with the Omnitrix?" Xylene asked. She seemed somewhat fidgety when she asked that.

Gwen was quiet for a moment before answering, "Not much, mostly practice." Xylene nodded, but she still fidgeted slightly.

"Which forms have you unlocked?" Psychobos asked Ben, coming up to the boy.

"I don't know all of the species, but-" Ben started.

"You can show me the holograms, then," Psychobos provided. Ben nodded and activated the Nemetrix.

As Ben and Psychobos looked through the Nemetrix's holograms, Xylene continuously looked at Gwen and asked, "Have you done anything public with the Omnitrix?"

Gwen was quiet once more before she answered, "I can only think of three times and that was before Ben and I met Kevin." Ben nodded, briefly looking at them.

Psychobos nodded slightly as they came to the beginning hologram. The Cerebrocrustacean asked, "Assuming you titled your forms, can you tell me which title goes with who?" Ben once again nodded. The two fell silent as the Nemetrix turned and whispers were passed.

"How… long have you been with the Sotoraggian?" Xylene asked.

"Early June," Gwen replied.

Xylene was quiet before asking, "Do you know of Maxwell Tennyson?"

Ben suddenly stopped, causing Psychobos to look over at the others. Gwen had froze, Kevin was looking away, and EightEight moved her hand once again to a talon at her side. Xylene blinked, tilting her head slightly.

"It appears you have struck a nerve with them, Xylene. I would assume they have some connection, then move on. No need to settle on bad skin," Psychobos telepathed.

Xylene looked to the ground, then said, "Very well." EightEight dropped her hand from the talon, but was clearly glaring at the Uxorite. Psychobos prodded Ben, causing the boy to return to reality.

The crab-like rubbed a claw on Ben's arm, directly telepathing something to him. To whatever the Cerebrocrustacean telepathically said, Ben nodded. Xylene became quiet for a bit.

When Psychobos stepped back from Ben, Xylene finally asked, "What do you plan to do from here?"

The quartet looked at each other before they looked back and Gwen said, "What we've been trying to do since we left Sparksville. A somewhat normal summer vacation."

"Then aliens happened," Kevin summed up. Xylene just stared while Psychobos chuckled at that.

Suddenly, there was an echoing crashing sound. They all looked in the direction of the noise as a silence reigned.

"That should be everything," the Tetramand Galactic Enforcer said, writing something on a tablet. Viktor sat on the other side of the table as she stood up. "We didn't touch your ship or the Ectonurite's ashes, so you and your Loboan friend will be dropped off where we found you. We can't do much to help after that due to Earth not being a proper part of the galactic stage. You'll be on your own from there. Though, there's the whole Corrodium laws thing, so we're going to check that spot in an Earth year and if the ship's still there, it's going into the Null Void." Viktor nodded.

Laws were in place for planets such as Earth, but this was annoying in the first place. Were there any of Earth's natives species in the Galactic Enforcers? Well, there were some in the Plumbers, but did they count?

"Brownbag will bring you and the Loboan back to Earth. Come on," the Tetramand stated before motioning to follow. Viktor stood and followed as they left the room.

There was never a mention of a Thep Khufan, so where was M? It was easy to assume what happened to Zs'Skayr and Benwolf was clearly taken up with him, but no mention of M. Where was the Thep Khufan?

-()-

Then came the sound of a rampaging machine, driven only by code. EightEight ran out first, followed by the Wyrmlings. Psychobos joined them, Xylene stalling before doing the same.

Near one of the elevators that descended into the Undertown was a large robot, the size of a teen Vaxasaurian. It had broken through one of the shafts, four legs smashed into the wall. A group of Aerophibians flew around the bot, firing lasers from their eyes at it. However, the robot never reacted to the shots. Its beeping red eyes looked over the city before their gleem looked towards the group of them. It suddenly shifted to a bug-like form, taking the appearance of a strange mosquito-Lepidopterran combination.

"An Achilles Techadon," Psychobos suddenly telepathed. When the Wyrmlings looked at him, he went on, "Creations of the Techadon, they're defense system is similar to that of the Earth legend of Achilles's heel. Achilles Techadons only have a few species that they're weak too and heavily resist all others."

"It's coming at us!" EightEight screeched. The Sotoraggian and Xylene dashed in two different directions while the Wyrmlings scattered. A burst of electricity came from Psychobos, who opened the shell around his brain and didn't move at all. The robot crashed into the ground, the electricity rolling off like water. The Achilles Techadon rammed into Psychobos, smashing an arm into the exposed brain. The Cerebrocrustacean screeched, followed by an explosion of electricity. The robot moved off of Psychobos, allowing the crab-like to twitch and the shell to slowly close.

The Achilles Techadon turned and looked directly at Ben. Xylene looked towards Psychobos as the Techadon robot dashed towards the Nemetrix wielder. Ben barely ran out of the way before the robot crashed into the building, bringing the wall down. The Sotoraggian took notice and screeched, "Transform if you need to get away!"

"Wait!" Xylene countered before Ben or Gwen could react. Asani let out an outraged chirp before the Nosedeenian zipped over to the Techadon. As Kevin yelled at Asani, Xylene added, "Psychobos said acid! I memorized the code for a Gourmand, I can unlock that transformation for the Omnitrix!"

The Achilles Techadon suddenly moved, smacking away Asani. The Nosedeenian crashed into a wall on the other side of the ruined street, causing Kevin to move towards her. Xylene moved towards Gwen, eyes glowing and the same glow surrounded the girl before she could do anything. The Techadon let out a clicking screech as it turned once again to Ben. EightEight quickly went over to the child, grabbing him and surging out of the way as the Achilles Techadon crashed once again into another building.

Xylene grabbed the Omnitrix, dropping her hold. "What are you-?" Gwen started, confusion in her voice when Xylene pulled up on the dial. Just the dial popped up and a green screen appeared like a keyboard. Gwen stared at the odd keyboard as Xylene used her free hand to start putting in something. Once she was finished, she tapped the largest button on the keyboard and let go of the Omnitrix. The faceplate popped up and she briefly saw the silhouette of a small, chubby creature with a long tail. It forced itself down and green light surrounded her. The Achilles Techadon suddenly turned at the light.

Within the light, her body began to shrink into itself. Green energy formed her new body before leaving her skin a grassy green. The rest of the energy ran across the now small, humanoid frog-ish creature and quickly formed black and white clothes. The Omnitrix settled on her left wrist, but it was more like how the Nemetrix was on Ben with a strange band holding it on. A long tail of the same grassy green color slumped behind her.

The light faded and she blinked her pure white eyes in surprise. Seeing her confusion, Xylene stated, "I transformed you into a Gourmand. The Omnitrix decided on the Perk subspecies." The Gourmand nodded slightly, looking at her small, clawed hands. She then looked towards the Techadon and the instincts within started to boil.

The Achilles Techadon lifted its head and a red orb formed near a mouth-like contraption. It quickly shot said orb at her, releasing a burst of red electricity. The Perk Gourmand opened her mouth, revealing three thin tongues that wrapped around the orb like nothing. It was pulled into her mouth and she swallowed it. "Hm… Tastes spicy," the Gourmand randomly commented. A green glow appeared around her belly. The Techadon paused as this happened. Xylene immediately backed off as the Gourmand suddenly bleached and a green acid-like substance was released.

The robot clearly thought it was nothing, but it crashed into the Achilles Techadon and it screeched an unholy screech. She suddenly slammed her long tail to the ground and leapt up, proclaiming, "Ukemochi!"

Ukemochi's tongues wrapped around the head of the robot, causing it to freak out and start ramming back. The Achilles Techadon shook its head back and forth, clearly trying to get the Gourmand off of it. She felt her tail brush up against something, but the robot eventually slammed itself into the ground. The Gourmand was forced to let out, but left ugly acid marks on the armor. There was a red flash and the robot turned to focus on that, allowing Ukemochi to get away by once again flinging herself via her tail.

She looked over and saw another Gourmand, but this one was more of a swamp color, had magenta eyes, the clothes were red and black, and the Predatrix was on the right wrist. The Achilles Techadon made a screech as it looked back and forth between the two Gourmands. It screeched, then turning and surging towards the dark Gourmand.

Like his female counterpart, he slammed the ground with his tail, flinging himself into the air. The Achilles Techadon stepped back, letting out a confused screech. Ukemochi surged forward, wrapping her tongues around one of the robot's legs. The male counter released a long, thick, single tongue that wrapped around its head. She ripped off one of the legs, which caused it to screech. The male followed with ripping off the head and swallowing it. He then added, "Alleater!"

As the robot collapsed to the ground, EightEight reappeared. She gurgled, "Eat all of it, it'll start to regenerate otherwise." The two Gourmands nodded before wrapping the tongues around the remains and promptly swallowing it all.

Xylene came back with Kevin, Asani, and Psychobos following her. At the same time, two odd horse-dragon creatures landed nearby. One had two Inmetsels on it, one white and one black, while the other had a Shadowian on it. They looked at the other creatures as the Shadowian got off his mount and approached them.

"What happened to the robot that broke into the Undertown?" the Shadowian asked. Xylene and EightEight looked at the two Gourmands, who just blinked at being looked at. The Shadowian hummed before stating, "At least it won't regenerate…"

The white Inmetsel then said, "I am Kah. Thank you for~r getting r~rid of the r~robot!"

The black one then added, "It would be best to see a healer~r, to make sure none of you are injur~red." The Sotoraggian nodded as Xylene approached the Perk Gourmand. She grabbed the hand with the Omnitrix symbol before inputting a pattern with dial turns and presses. In a flash, Gwen was suddenly back. Psychobos noticed and opened his shell slightly. In a twin flash, Ben was also back.

The two Inmetsels and the Shadowian stared on in complete silence.

One of the strange horse-dragon things then commented, "Well, this is going to be awkward to explain to the committee."

"Quite," the other one nodded.

-(...)-

The sky was lit with stars and the moon nowhere to be seen. The Dark Eagle was parked in a forest just outside of Nashville with the six of them outside (Asani was inside the vehicle, as usual). Xylene looked between Ben and Gwen before saying, "It is good to see that the Omnitrix and the Predatrix-"

"Nemetrix."

"- will be in good hands," Xylene finished, once again ignoring Psychobos's interruption. She then turned and began to walk away.

"Where are you going?" Gwen asked.

"To find Max," Xylene started, then added, "because he clearly did something wrong to have children spite him." EightEight promptly laughed at that and Psychobos chuckled slightly, leaving the Wyrmlings to freeze frame and record scratch.

"Let's see if you get through to him," Psychobos commented. Xylene hummed.

"Let us see if we cross paths again in our lives," Xylene stated in farewell before disappearing into the trees. EightEight calmed herself as Ben, Gwen, and Kevin just continued to be off put.

The Sotoraggian looked at the Cerebrocrustacean before asking, "And what are you planning to do?"

Psychobos was quiet, leading the trio to look towards him, before he said, "If you don't mind, I would prefer to stick with you four. Not only because Ben is the holder of the Nemetrix, but I can't help but be curious about other things about you. Such as how Kevin is very much a human-Osmosian hybrid."

A beat.

"Good to know our thoughts were correct," EightEight hummed.

"There actually is known to be an Osmosian-Citrakayah hybrid and said hybrid doesn't have any horns, and since he looks closer to a human than any other species with similarities to Osmosians, I assumed that would be a good guess on true species," Psychobos shrugged. He then randomly telepathed, "Also, I'm glad that the hybrid scan feature of the Nemetrix works, I wasn't too sure if it would."

"So Abraham did come from Kevin touching the Pr- Nemetrix?" Ben asked. Psychobos nodded.

"It's late out, we should sleep so we can get moving in the morning," EightEight gurgled. There were some noises of agreement as they relocated into the Dark Eagle.

EightEight pretended to sleep as they settled. Once they did, she looked at the configuration. Gwen, Kevin, and Asani were in their normal spots. Psychobos had taken a spot near the bunks and piled a few of the random extra blankets in storage to make a weird little nest. Ben, instead of being in an actual bed, was curled in Psychobos's arms. The Sotoraggian tilted her head slightly at that, but eventually decided to let herself slumber.

-()-

A roar and the smashing of rocks caused the Null Guardians to screech in reply. One got too close to the Chimera and quickly got punched away. The other guardians backed away and ignored Vilgax as he growled. The one he punched flapped its wings like mad before flying away from him.

Time had no meaning in the Null Void. The yellow, twinkling skies were a pain to see every time he looked around, the maroon rocks even more so. His bright red eyes pierced in anger as he continued to wander. A blue Vulpimancer pelt covered part of his right arm. His mind briefly wandered to that damned Mechamorph form of the Omnitrix wielder.

His claw was in a fist and a prick of pain caused Vilgax to look at his hand. He loosened the arm and saw marks with blue blood slowly coming out of them. The Chimera clutched his hand again.

He would get out, no matter the cost.

His mind wandered again.

Something felt… wrong, as if there was an imbalance. Like something the universe needed wasn't there and needed to be fixed.

Perhaps it was just his mind playing tricks on him.

It probably was.

He wouldn't put it pass the nature of the Null Void.

He missed the taste of smoked hydren.
