Maya P.O.V.

Let me check...only one hour left. Searching this is endless. I've reached various dead ends, and the amount of humans I've murdered is astonishing. How many humans were in this cult?

Doesn't matter, just keep on searching and...huh? Why is this room filled with boulders and rubble to the brim? And I didn't even enter through a door, I entered through a hole in the wall! Weird.

It certainly got much more quieter. I like it.

Jacko P.O.V.

*SLAM*

Jacko: Tell me where your fucking sacrifice is, FREAK.

???: *cough* N...Never...

*SPLAT*

I slammed his head against the floor, causing a bid blood splatter.

Jeez, this is hopeless. Interrogating doesn't work, so I guess I'll just have to brute force my way. I enter what appears to be an elevator, and press a button. I goes up. When it opens, I'm outside!

Protogen: Hey!

I see some protogen approach me.

Protogen2: What's the status?

Jacko: I haven't found him yet, so I'll go back in.

???: That won't be necessary.

I turn around and see Parlin, and...that human!

Jacko: You found it!

Parlin: Sure did!

Jacko: Why is it so bandaged up?

Parlin: The thing was a bloodied mess. Good thing I arrived when I did or he would've not made it.

Jacko: Yeah...thankfully...

Thankfully Zircon won't go into a crazy fit. It rarely happens, so it always catches me off guard.

Parlin: I ran into an orange chick. What was her name? Mayonnaise?

Jacko: ...Maya?

Parlin: Yeah that! She gave me some medical supplies, says she saw something that needed them. And she was right!

Jacko: Heh...anyway, how's the human been? Is it resisting or being obedient?

Parlin: Rather obedient. He doesn't have that much energy...he should probably rest.

He wasn't wrong. The human seemed to been kinda dazed out. It stumbled a lot, and seemed a bit...disconnected.

Parlin: I'll take it to the cur.

Jacko: Car.

Parlin: Tch. Humans and their naming. I'll never understand.

Parlin takes the human to the vehicle. At one point, the human trips, and Parlin has to pull his arm on his shoulder to keep him from falling over. 

This is a mess...but it was needed. This puny human is important to Zircon. And...if it's what makes him happy, then I GUESS I won't complain...

...that much.

Kayla P.O.V.

NonoNO! This CAN'T BE!

A protogen is taking Matthew to a car! And he looks so beat up...what die they DO to him!?

Tricky: There seems to be a bunch of protogen in this area.

Kayla: Yeah...

Tricky: What can the three of us even do?
