Chapter 27

" He had been bored, that's all, bored like most people. Hence he had made himself out of whole cloth a life full of complications and drama. Something must happen - and that explains most human commitments. Something must happen, even loveless slavery, even war or death. Hurray then for funerals! "

- Albert Camus

(Formerly One World Trade Center: Manhattan, New York City, 3:00 PM)

Walking around the hallway, Gourai held a tray of snacks to the visitors which the overlord Kasius had told her. She carefully placed them on the table, not hearing of the conversation of his guests. It was a long haired pony-tailed female who softly pet Nikolai as he just vacantly stared at the room in an unresponsive way, sitting on the couch beside her and appearing to be vegatative, staring at TMoL as it hung up like an old gun. The other guest was a middle-aged lizard female in a pink humanoid skin wearing a long dark dress who sat across the younger one and the Faunus.

Gourai remained silent and waited for her master to follow orders. She never heard the woman talking to the blue Kree overlord which the inhibitor had prevented her from eavesdropping. Kasius noticed her and snapped his fingers to call her attention. The conversation had paused when the blonde cyborg approached him.

" Gourai, give me three glasses of wine for me and my companions here, " the Kree said. " Don't forget to bring 682's snacks before his turn in the tourney. Understood? "

Gourai nodded and left the room after hearing her master giving her orders. Then, the blue overlord paid attention to the conversation and became interested upon hearing the stories of interdimensional people before their exile. The woman finished her story and intently smiled.

" That's an interesting story you got there, Monika. I have never heard of such events that happened in your old world. "

" That's what happened, right? " Monika shrugged.

" I'm glad to hear that story, " Kasius stood up from his seat and started to walk over. " I am still compelled to see more people from your old universe. "

" Perhaps, that Faunus can be one of your experiments, " the lizard woman replied and stressed her words. " He could be better than that foolish Kree-682 hybrid slave of yours, Kasius. "

" I have given him so many chances, Basha. One more failure of his, I will exterminate him anytime as long as I need to, " he turned to Monika. " I prefer to be that other Nikolai to be his replacement in the near future. "

" No, he's been through enough, " Monika darkly glared at the tyrant.

" I see, " he loudly laughed. " What do you think, Basha?! "

" Hmmm, we can use him to exterminate humans, " Basha crossed her arms and intently looked at the unconscious fox Faunus. " I'm seeing more potential on this one. "

" Yeah, that's a good idea as having Captain America open fire on American citizens, " the pony-tailed lady raised her hand in interjection. " Even without that Mask, he's still a person who values humanity. "

" Captain America, I have heard of him. Apparently, his Inhuman loyalist turned him to be one, " Kasius added and looked at the doorway, seeing Gourai enter the room with some glasses of wine. " Thank you, you may now go and feed 682. "

The cyborg had watched them eating and drinking while she remained waiting for her master to call her. He seemed very busy talking with his guests. Gourai left and proceeded to her next duty.

" Who? " Basha curiously asked.

" A sovereign citizen? " Monika added.

" The one named Pyromaniac also known as Dr. Freedom Torch, " the tyrant replied. " No one knows where he is. "

" His grandchildren are very interesting weapons to be sold to my friends, " the lizard woman grinned and replied. " But still, I hope they could burn thousands of worlds and a multitude. "

" Monika, do you want to see my people in the den? " Kasius asked the younger woman.

" Very well, " Monika intently smiled and finished her drink.

The three had left the unconscious fox Faunus man onto the couch which they were heading to the lower floors of this slave den building. They took the elevator as the Kree and Lizard guards aided their way.

Meanwhile, the cyborg woman left the food beside the cell where the Kree-Lizard accuser was stationed and waiting for his turn in the tournament later on. Amnon-Selah angrily glared at her when Gourai was frightened to see him. She couldn't speak nor respond to his reactions.

" I hope you can eat there, " she thought. " I know you have been through a lot. I'm just doing my job for the overlord. Please don't hurt me. I just prepared food for you. "

The sane Amnon inside his brainwashed monstrous shell sensed the cyborg woman's uneasiness and fear. Somehow, he wanted to take control at this moment and respond nicely to her.

" Thanks..." he said inside his mind. " You have been so good to me, Gourai, but I have forgiven you from what you did to me before. Don't worry, I will never hurt you. I hope we could be friends if I break free. Then, we'll get to know each other. I'm tired of being a pushover to this tyrant jerk. Someday, I'll help you escape from this hell along with the other slaves. "

Gourai looked concerned at Amnon and curiously raised her eyebrows. She felt like the Kree-Lizard hybrid was talking to her by looks and getting his food. The cyborg was watching him eating and thinking of touching him.

" He seems like he's reading my mind and talking to me, " she wondered and blushed. " How come? I thought he's ruthless like the monster from his head. This is a mistake I made him like this. If only I could know your name, get to know each other, listen, and talk to you. I wish we could have been friends. "

Gourai sadly sighed and watched Amnon finish eating. Suddenly, she saw Kasius and his lot walking around the slave den and looked at him.

" I hope you enjoyed eating, " she hurriedly thought. " I need to go...Bye for now...I'll see you, later."

" Take care of yourself, " the sane Amnon replied. " I'll see you later, too...."

Gourai humbly bowed at her master when she approached him. Kasius gave her a nod to return to the loft where he was staying. Monika and Basha ignored her and turned their attention to the slaves. Just then, they saw a wavy dark-haired female slave with furious red eyes and igniting hands.

" There, the one young lady named Madeline. She sounds just like the Old Pyromaniac and Firefly " Kasius pointed at the female Inhuman.

" I won't let you people get me! " Madeline indignantly glared and responded at the three people. " Or I'll scorch you all to death! You Kree are ruthless slave drivers along with your friends!

" I'm beginning to question my alignment, " Monika raised her eyebrows in doubt and crossed her arms.

Madeline thought of putting down the entire slave den into ashes when Kasius sighed and snapped his fingers to call his minions to take her away from his sight. The female Inhuman loudly ranted and cursed as the Kree and Lizard guards instantly grabbed her away. Her voice echoed from a distance until the roaches took her life once and for all.

" She is a load of trouble just like the so-called 682," the tyrant commented and sighed. " And here's an interesting part, she looks very familiar to you. "

" You mean the Destroyer of Worlds? " Basha asked.

" Yes. "

" Come here, Monika. "

" Why? I'm comfortable right here, " Monika shrugged.

" Why don't you take a look, Terran, " Kasius stressed his words, sternly glared at the pony-tailed woman and found her very annoying.

" Where? "

" There she is. Quake the Destroyer of Worlds. "

The younger brunette Inhuman from another dimension grimly glared at the three people in front of her. For the overlord, she was another potential weapon whom he was still choosing from the other slaves in order to eliminate Amnon-Selah for good. Daisy Johnson was inside of her cell and giving her visitors and handlers a bad demeanor. Spitting at the faces of Monika, Basha, and Kasius, they found her savage and barbaric, wiping out the saliva from their face.

" Well, what can you say? " Basha sternly asked.

" Yeah, congratulations from having me here, " Daisy sarcastically replied. " You're glad I'm here, right?! Like, you're gonna sell me out to someone powerful. Then, what next? "

" She's all yours if she wins, Terran, " the lizard woman turned to the pony-tailed lady.

" Oh, Daisy, " Monika smiled. " What an honest surprise. It's good to see you. "

" Well, I am trapped in this dungeon to make more Inhumans fight! " Daisy hissed. " I'm glad to see you too, psycho. "

" What? "

" Yeah, you don't know..."

" Of course, I don't. "

" Check it out by yourself, idiot. "

" Maybe, I will. "

" Oh yes, this place is full of slaves and Inhuman fighters. The Elders don't exist anymore. My father killed them fifty years ago. Yet, I doubt if they will, " Kasius intently grinned and ignored the Inhuman.

" Kang helped us bring some interdimensional travelers, " Basha added.

" Elders? " Monika repeated the word from the Kree.

" Kang just told me that they are other survivors from another ship, " the blue tyrant explained. " Quake is one of those survivors we found. Speaking of the Elders, we have one. "

The Kree and Lizard guards brought an elderly fox Faunus slave, wearing grey clothes. He was also accompanied by his granddaughter in his late twenties who finished her duties at the processing area. Monika turned her attention to the elderly grumpy and ranting fox Faunus who looked uncanny to Nikolai.

" You people, what have you done with those innocents! " he angrily yelled. " I regret this, being a slave for damned people, since you made the MIB destroyed for real! I'm gonna get even with you people! "

" Grandpa, stop! " his granddaughter cried and held his hands.

" What?! " Monika raised her voice in shock.

" You! " Elderly Nikolai Efpistons pointed his index fingers and angrily squinted his eyes at the pony-tailed lady. " You're aiding those Kree tyrants, aren't ya, huh?! I'll show you how to suffer these days, young lady! I'm telling you, your blood will be a price of those innocent lives you have taken! Don't you ever dare to get your damn hands on me or that youngster! "

" I'm sorry about my grandpa, he's a bit paranoid. I'm Marie Efpistons-Stein. Yeah, they brought us here in the dungeon. My grandpa saw his unconscious counterpart a few months ago. That's why he has been like this. "

" Marie, don't talk to her! She's one of those Kree and Lizard supporters! She's an ultimate disgrace! "

" Grandpa, Sinara's here! '' she whispered to the elderly fox Faunus.

" Who's Sinara? " Monika curiously asked.

Marie shushed her furious grandfather and turned to the blue skinned woman with pigtails wearing a black dress. She walked besides Kasius and held two metallic balls. Elder Nikolai stopped ranting and gulped in fear, seeing another overlord's death puppet. The evil Kree woman slightly smiled at the visitors and the other two slaves.

" She's a silent type, but my trusted aide, " Kasius answered.

" Oh, I see. This is an... interesting amount of information to take in, " Monika intently smiled.

" Marie, bring your grandfather to the arena. I think he likes to watch the battle of the next Inhuman. "

" Yes, my lord, " Marie humbly bowed at the overlord.

" But I want to eat my oranges, while scolding them! " Elder Nikolai whined like a child and resisted. " Don't you ever take me there! "

" Later, grandpa. Later. "

Marie took her grandfather away as the guards aided their way to the arena. Monika watched them leave as Kasius turned to her.

" I have the slightest idea he may be senile, " she said.

" Elder Nikolai Efpistons or former MIB Agent NF is still rebellious and sometimes forgetful, " he explained. " He was the first slave taken by my father. "

" Yeah, that is true. "

" Still he got affected after the death of his wife, Questa Bellamy-Efpistons or MIB Agent Q fifty years ago. "

" That old Faunus is still grieving after the death of that Azuran woman, but we treated him and his remaining children as slaves, " Basha added.

" That's horrible! "

" The roaches killed his wife. Q was punished when she rejected our technology. "

" Why?! "

" The Kree and Faunus were once allies. Until, Kasius' father decided to break that alliance and made new friends with my race, " the lizard woman explained.

" Yes, my father wanted to bring change into the Kree empire. Lady Basha' s family and race integrated for war and technology which the Faunus race protested. Another thing, this is the only way to put Lord Supremor into his ultimate failure, " Kasius explained. " Thanks to our joint efforts, we have colonized planet Earth for a long time. "

" So, you forced a people into slavery... because you wanted to demolish things? " Monika asked.

" Yes, because I am the new ruler of this planet, " he responded and put both his hands on his waist. " No one will ever dare to get rid of me, not even the Kree Eternal and his naive son. "

" That sounds like you were begging for trouble. "

" More than that. "

Suddenly, the pink skinned guard bowed to the overlord and said, " My lord, the interdimensional exiles are going to be in the dungeon aside from Quake. "

" Bring them in, " Kasius replied.

" Yes, sire, " he nodded and left the place.

" Perhaps, we are expecting more Inhumans from the one Kang referred to, " Basha said.

" Yes, of course, " Kasius calmly smiled and watched the other guards going around the hallway.

" Give me a moment, I'll be right back, " Monika said, left them, and headed towards the cell where everyone was being held.

The pony-tailed lady turned her attention to the other newly arrived people who would be the oppressed slaves in Kasius's lair. She looked around one by one and she saw familiar people from the old universe. The guards harshly handled them for their unruly behavior. While the others, they were all terrified of what they had seen.

Monika intently smiled and returned to the two as she heard their conversation. She was ready to bring the good news for them.

" Too bad, I can't find Pyromaniac and his wife here, " Kasius said.

" But we have their granddaughter, Madeline Williams-Stark, " Basha added.

" Ah Madeline the Sun Dragon, she's better off being a feed to the roaches, Basha, " he replied. " I am seeing more familiar faces in these captives. "

" So that means a lot of people are angry at you? " Monika turned to the Kree. " I have seen more of them coming. "

" Yes, but they will learn to stand down and follow my orders like any other slaves here. "

A middle-aged blonde man who looked like Jaune Arc appeared and yelled, " Kasius! Bring me to my daughter, Alicia! You promised me to see her! "

The blue tyrant blandly looked at the Inhuman and sighed. Monika and Basha exchanged glances at each other and turned their attention to him. Sinara sternly glared and held her balls of death to intimidate him. The man was supposed to release his energy blasts to send them flying.

" You filthy lying @$$hole, Kasius! You told me to see my daughter if I win! " he kept yelling and igniting his hands. " It's only to find out from the guards and my fellow slaves that you're gonna sell me to those freaks! I'll never get to see her again! "

" Andrew, you should calm down. It's not yet your turn to see her, " Kasius calmly responded.

" I DON'T GIVE A DAMN TO YOUR TYRANNY AND FALSE HOPES! "

The blue Kree pressed his remote to stun the Inhuman from his neck inhibitor and controlled his powers. Andrew loudly screeched in excruciating pain and felt shaking inside his body. Monika, Sinara, and Basha mercilessly watched him suffer. It took him several minutes to experience. Finally, Kasius ceased pressing the button and kept it in his coat's pocket.

Andrew panted and felt weakened from that harsh punishment. He tried to stand up, but he was still shaking after being stunned. Kasius crossed his arms and smiled.

" Now, what do you think? " the Kree asked.

" If I win, I'll see her! " the Inhuman gave him a confident smile. " I'm gonna prove it to you. "

" That's a big if, " Sinara sternly muttered.

" It seems you can win if you defeat the challenger, " Kasius informed and smirked. " I dare you to defeat that fool which I want him to be totally dispatched from my sight for good. Then, you can see your daughter. "

" Then, I accept this challenge! "

" Well, then. Good luck! "

Andrew Arc stood in the arena as his head moved around the seeing people watching him. He waited for his challenger to arrive and took a deep breath to pacify himself. The rest of spectators watched the Inhuman standing at the corner and murmured at him. He ignored and thought of his daughter to be spared from slavery.

Within the arena stood a seven feet Kree-Reptilian hybrid, who appeared to have scales like a crocodile, supported by the large, yet rotted, scaly tail of it along with the blue scars. He was wearing a dark Starforce uniform with turquoise trimmings and a Star of Hala engraved at his chest. The brainwashed Amnon-Selah emotionlessly looked at Andrew. Inside his mind, the sane Amnon watched at the Inhuman who was well-prepared and planning to attack his rotten shell.

" This is not a good idea. He's putting himself in danger, " he anxiously said to himself. " Whatever he is planning, there must be an explanation for that. If only I could find a way to ask him why without being stuck in this situation forever. "

Kasius evilly smirked and watched the introduction of the match along with his companions. He was expecting that his favorite brainwashed slave would fail and meet his own tragic demise from that Inhuman. The blue tyrant had enough of the hybrid's foolishness and failures ever since, thinking Amnon-Selah could be like SCP-682. Several days ago, the hybrid lost his matches which Kasius wanted him to terminate. The overlord wished Amnon to be another feed to his pet Vrellnexians if he would fail again.

" Do you think this is an uneven match? " Basha the lizard woman asked.

" I have plans for this Inhuman father since he's set for his highest bidder, " Kasius smirked and clasped his both hands. " Apparently, he will never see his little girl again if he wins. "

" I see, but what about your favorite battered hybrid slave? "

" At any moment, I would love to see his instant death. I'm getting rid of him for real, because I am sick and tired of seeing and hearing of his failures. "

" Another of your kind...." the Kree-Lizard hybrid indignantly spoke.

" This is for my daughter, you idiot! " Andrew cried.

" Ah..daughter you say...Just say that you've signed your death sentence. "

" Go ahead! Make it a fair fight, " Inhuman lowly spoke.

" This is getting more interesting than I thought, " Kasius intently grinned.

" You have people you care for....people that my species want dead....people who've only brought harm to others....I shall make this a quick yet painful fight for you, " Amnon-Selah replied, grabbed on the hilt of his weapon, and drew his sword, a Zweihander.

Andrew used his low energy blasts as he targeted the hybrid when he quickly dodged from the blast. Inside his mind, the sane Amnon was dumbfounded and feeling trembled from the attack.

" That Inhuman was surely a feisty one, " he commented. " If I get back into this shell, I could have taken him away from this nonsense. "

Marie and her grandfather also watched the scene as they glanced at each other. Elder Nikolai widened his eyes in shock as he was worried to see the two opponents exchanging attacks. His granddaughter held his right hand.

" Be careful young man, he might kill you anytime soon, " he muttered.

" This is too quick, grandpa, " Marie turned to him.

" I know. "

The spectators and the bidders saw how intense the battle was. Andrew Arc tirelessly kept blasting the opponent. Amnon-Selah tried to dodge the attacks, although he was too terrified to retaliate. The Inhuman concentrated with his full nuclear blast to bring him down. Basha curiously raised her eyebrows and turned to the blue tyrant.

" Kasius, I thought he's one of your powerful people? " she asked. " How come he's becoming more overpowered? "

" Patience, Basha, Patience, " Kasius smirked and thought that his plans would be successful in taking down the Kree-Lizard hybrid for good.

The Kree-Lizard hybrid dashed at Andrew with blinding speed and swiftly slashed the Inhuman upward with his sword in hand. His sane-self was horrified to see the opponent being impaled. Andrew saw a drip of blood on his arm. He wanted to heal himself, but he decided to surrender. He has understood if he wins he will never have a chance to see his daughter.

" What on Hala am I doing?! " the sane Amnon loudly cried and slapped his face. " This is not happening! This is too much! I need to get myself on my feet again! I have enough of this! "

" Already submitting to defeat so soon? " the brainwashed hybrid asked.

" Yeah... I know this is gonna be a rough one..." Andrew grinned and panted.

" I don't accept this kind of win..."

" Oh for Hala's sake! " the sane Amnon loudly rasped. " NOOOO!! "

His brainwashed self ignored the real Amnon's loud yell inside his mind. He plunged his Claymore deep into Andrew's chest. Kasius was unhappy from what he was seeing and crossed his arms.

"....It shows that sign of the weak, " he raised its sword up with the Inhuman as it still plunged into it. " And here I thought battling an Inhuman will gain enough strength to finally wipe that''demon '' and''angel '' out of existence. Unfortunately it's not the case...." the Kree-Lizard hybrid swung his sword which threw Andrew off it. He sheathed its claymore back and looked at Kasius in the audience stand. " I'm still not done yet. You and I need to talk later. "

" Bring the dead Inhuman to the roaches, " the overlord sternly turned to his guards.

" Yes, sire, " they nodded.

The brainwashed Amnon overheard, noticed the Overlord's orders, and muttered, " Roaches...interesting..."

Kasius angrily glared at him and walked away along with his companions. Basha and the other bidders murmured of what happened during the tourney. Walking around, the overlord saw the Inhuman being taken away by his Kree-Lizard legion guards. He was not satisfied in putting his slave down once and for all.

" This is not what I am expecting, " he angrily thought and clenched his both hands. " I could have taken him down before the siege against the MTF a few months ago. I regretted giving him so many chances. "

He turned around and heard the other guards talking about the Rebel Forces fighting back against his legion. The Kree was eavesdropping, curiously raising his eyebrows and wondering, " Maybe, I shall give that futile Kree Eternal's son a mission. That can get rid of him. Yes...Finally, you have given me an idea..."

Just then, Amnon-Selah was walking around the hallway after his win in the tournament. His sane self was making his way to control his rotten shell. This time, he was ready to take the chance since the 682 side was mentally tired and drained. Amnon took charge of the body when he started to feel headaches and snapped again.

" Finally, thanks to that SCP-Object, I'm ready to take this chance! Yes! I gained my full control! Hah! " he happily said to himself.

Walking around to the dispatch area, he saw the unconscious Inhuman lying on the floor while the guards left the body. Amnon-Selah took his opponent away before Andrew would serve as a roach feed.

" So, this is the guy who I brought him down for good. What on Hala would I have done?! " he sadly muttered and saw the Inhuman quickly recovering.

Andrew instantly opened his eyes and grinned at him. Amnon widened his eyes in shock for which he was startled to see him. The Inhuman laughed as the Kree-Lizard hybrid nervously gulped and thought of imitating the ruthless and cold 682 as his disguise.

" You should've been at your A-game, " he cleared his throat and spoke. " But unfortunately you've picked the path to death. "

" Kasius never realized that my energy blasts can regenerate my body. That blue idiot thinks I can fight you! " Andrew softly chuckled and explained. " It's just a petty damn show after all. That's why I already knew he would sell me to his bidder friends. I would rather sacrifice and spare myself and my daughter away from this hellhole. I know you're thinking that too. You're a fellow slave like me. "

" Right. Can it regenerate any and all organs? " he curiously asked when he plunged his hand into the Inhuman's wound and ripped out his liver.

Andrew touched his wounds, healed his liver and returned to his normal skin. Amnon-Selah recalled what his other friend explained about the Inhumans before and understood. Now, he was also seeing another one.

" You know? I inherited this ability from my grandfather which I got after terrigenesis, " he said and instantly sat up.

" You and your species' bloodline.....gaining or combining powers from your ancestry. Did the Kree make you that way with this blue crystal? "

" Yeah, the Nikos-Arc family has a lineage of Inhuman ancestry. Look, that was a long time ago when they turned us that way to serve and fight along with them against their enemies. That's why they are hunting for me and my daughter. I want Alicia to live a normal life. "

" Well, at least it is worse than being experimented, chased, killed, and enslaved to the extreme. "

" Right. Finally, you got my point, " he nodded and continued. " Few years ago, my wife died giving birth to her, because Alicia is more powerful than me. Somehow, this Inhuman lineage can take us places. Now, can you take me to her? "

" For a brief while. there's some things I must discuss with the Overlord, " the Kree-Lizard spoke. " By the way, what's your name? "

" Andrew Golanovich Arc, " he smiled in reply. " You must be? "

" Amnon-Selah..."

" Wait a second, From your name, you're also a Kree?! How come they call you 682?! "

Amnon-Selah sadly sighed and never wanted to tell anyone of his past and brainwashed self. He tried to keep those things, since he was trying to avoid Kasius and his minions. Andrew waited for his response and looked at him with a concern.

" Yes, I'm part-Kree and it's a long story..."

" All right, then. That must be pretty rough for you to stay here, Amnon, " Andrew answered. " Thank you, anyway. Just tell him, you already dumped me away to the roaches. "

" Can't keep it, " Amnon cautiously turned around the hallway and asked. " Now, where's your daughter's cell at? "

" Into the docks. "

The Kree-Lizard slave nodded his head and took him to the direction of the docks. Andrew held a dark cloak to cover himself and headed to the place. They both stopped at Alicia's cell and instantly broke the bars. Just inside the cell, it was a scarlet-haired Inhuman girl with a pair of azure eyes. She instantly hugged her father as Andrew hugged her back. Amnon smiled and sighed in relief at seeing the father and daughter reuniting. Still, he had a hint of sadness in his eyes which he was missing and reminiscing about his days with his mother.

" Daddy! " Alicia happily beamed.

" Keep quiet! " Andrew shushed and warned. " We need to get out of here! "

" How? "

" The guards are everywhere.We'll hide in those crates. "

" Where are we going? "

" Out of New York City...anywhere else..."

" Okay. "

Amnon closed the cell doors behind them and led his way to the crates. The father and daughter entered them.

" Enjoy this brief period of reunion. I'll be back for you, Andrew. I need to settle my talk with Kasius. Well, If I remain like this, " he anxiously said and walked back to the direction of the overlord's current location from what he could remember.

On his way back, Amnon wandered to the right path, however he began to feel headaches again. His demon was forcing him to return to his shell. The hybrid yelled in pain and fell into his knees, struggling to remain his sanity. He was touching and holding his forehead.

" Stop this! You're meddling me again! Just leave me alone! You're causing me so much pain! " he yelled and snapped into the vile one. " Why are you getting into my nerves again, Svet...or should I say Amnon-Selah?! I thought you were dead! I'm gonna get even with you, anytime soon! "

The brainwashed Amnon-Selah returned to his shell and wandered to the right path going to Kasius. Then, he noticed and recognized someone from a distance. Out from the shadows, another of the Lizard species came out that had a more healthier condition. A higher-up.

"...Dennis..."

" Brother, I've been waiting for you, so has the Overlord, " Dennis grinned and asked. " What may have taken you this long? "

The insane hybrid walked past Dennis and spoke, " There's no need for useless questions. Now, let's move on. "

" Yes..." the other lizard was about to say "brother" but stumbled on his words for a bit. "....Sire. "

" Much better..."

" You're just a mere slave, brother..." Dennis angrily muttered and rolled his eyes in disgust. " You're just being delusional..."

Amnon walked onto Kasius as his so-called brother followed behind him. The blue tyrant was sitting on his favorite chair and drinking wine as one of the slaves gave a glass to him. Turning to the hybrid, Kasius knew his plan of giving him a "special mission " would be a success.

" What happened to Andrew? " he asked. " Did your fellows dump his body away? "

" He'll be heading to the devil in a short time. "

" I see. We'll be dealing with more Inhumans from my friend, Kang. More slaves from the normal ones and the Faunus. Perhaps, they will help rebuild New York City and the other nations as well under my glory, " Kasius answered and held his glass. " Since your victory has proven enough. I shall give you a chance to work with me. "

" What kind of work? "

" I'll explain that later, " he stood up and brought down his glass of wine on the table. Kasius noticed a young brunette Englishwoman which the guards took into his loft. She was struggling to get away from them and indignantly looking at the tyrant. " Like this one! "

" Let me go! " she angrily yelled and attempted to break free of the guards. " You people destroyed our plans in our settlement! "

" Oh, Margaret Carter, it's just your new beginning as a slave. You may be from another dimension, but your life will never be the same, " he calmly smiled and touched her face. " But I adore your perfection and beauty. "

" You fool!! "

The hybrid walked over to Peggy and took a deep look at her. Inside his mind, the real and sane Amnon tried to break free and snap into control. He also looked at the woman when he remembered his first encounter with the overlord.

" Poor lady, " he sadly said. " If only I could return again. This is my next chance to save her aside from the Arc family, but that vile one is still taking on hold of me! "

" Don't worry, it will take a while, " Kasius smiled and assured his companions.

The blue Kree took a vial from his drawer and approached the woman. He inserted the metallic serum into her right ear. Peggy was crying in excruciating pain when the serum entered the ear canal and reached the auditory part of her brain. She couldn't hear the people around her, except for the Overlord's voice.

The sane Amnon-Selah remained speechless in his mind, seeing the suffering and enslaving of the interdimensional woman. He couldn't stand looking and hearing her cries, reminding him of the same despair he had before.

Kasius crossed his arms and said, " Now, Peggy get yourself changed and take your people into the docks. You'll return into my loft. Do you understand my orders? "

Peggy nodded and remained silent as she couldn't speak. She was slowly standing up and feeling wobbly and dizzy.

" Good! "

Amnon looked at Kasius and asked, " Aren't you a tyrannical being? "

" Let's say I'm just following my father's footsteps. Soon enough, I will overthrow the Supreme Intelligence in Hala to reign the true Kree Empire. "

" Now, that's what I have been waiting to hear from you. Someday, I will find my way to expose your wrongdoings, " the sane Amnon indignantly said in his mind and waited for his brainwashed self to speak up. " See, this is why I hate you and the rest of any humanoid species. Nothing but their own opinions to lead the path of destruction to just "progress" their species. "

" Just wait and see, 682. " Kasius evilly smirked and thought. " You may be influenced, but you don't know what I can do to you. "

" Oh, We'll wait all right. Now, on the deal and empty promises of an "fulfilling and worthwhile training". "

" Exactly. We'll start with the slaves first, then the weapons, and finally the Kree-interracial nomadic tribes. "

" And yet, you purposefully starve the slaves. My species expect strong opponents to slay over, and yet here you have been punishing me and throwing cannon fodder at me for six months. How is this supposed to help me for my revenge? "

" If you're after my nomadic brothers and their mixed race allies, then I shall give you my permission to do that. "

The sane Amnon overheard and understood the conversation which made him become more anxious of what Kasius would bring anytime soon. On the other hand, his brainwashed self was still focused on the destruction and death of the innocent, like any evil Kree accuser would do. He was waiting for another right timing to control his rotten monstrous shell.

The Kree-Lizard growled intensively and asked, " How far are they from here? "

" Everywhere on this planet, my father tried to eliminate them. But be careful with the rebel faction, their leader is Kree-Faunus hybrid man named, Absalom Bav-tek. He's one of the most wanted people to track down. "

" They have to make it difficult for me, don't they?....Consider them extinct once I return. "

" Absalom is an extremist. He lives somewhere in the outskirts of Jerusalem leading an army of Kree, Faunus, human, and Inhuman rebels, " Kasius explained and raised his left hand in interjection. " Perhaps, you might include the free nomadic ones as well. "

" Heh, this will be an interesting and funny little continuation of my killing spree...of the innocents . I will show no mercy against them, and I will slaughter any and all who are opposed. But the elderly, women and children?.....they'll be fine meals. Anyways, I'll return, successful. Oh, and as for my co-operative with you, I will ask for something in return. "

The sane Amnon was even more alarmed to hear of what the overlord had mentioned. He wanted to break free from his psychological prison once more and ask him to stop this mess. He was unhappy and growing more frustrated than ever.

" Elderly, Women, and Children?! " he raised his voice and reminded of Elder Carol Danvers and the Arc Family. " This is ridiculous! I'm not letting this happen again! I'm not going to hurt my mother or anyone else! I need to do something, right now! "

His brainwashed self ignored the angry rants of the Kree Eternal's son which he listened carefully to his deemed master's further instructions and warnings.

" Of course, that will do. But be careful of that blue goat man, he will do such harm once he reaches his forces to the great cities, " Kasius continued. " One more thing, get me the Elder Pyromaniac and Elder Firefly. They are the only survivors of the Avengers who have been hiding in years. They are both powerful Inhumans, I need to obtain their blood. Of course, they will be extinct very soon. "

" Of course. Consider it done with gallons upon gallons of blood spilled. Now, if you would excuse me, " Amnon replied.

" Well then, keep me posted, " Kasius intently grinned and crossed his arms.

" Will do..." he took his leave back to the docks.

" Amnon-Selah, you don't even know what you will be doing then. You're just failing me all over again. I have regretted keeping you as 682 in my lot, " he sternly thought. " Even if you're mentally manipulated, your eyes reminded me of your lunatic father who dared to rebel against my ancestors and the Kree Empire. You will just be another disgusting and traitorous bastard like him. I will make a way to make you and your father suffer for the rest of your life. "
