Paltio began his assault with the gloves Golden had given him, while Mok wielded his knives with precision to shield him from Ruby's massive pincers. Mok’s knives moved like extensions of his arms, each strike calculated with surgical accuracy—one blade in his right hand, the others in his left—as they clashed against the giant mechanical crab’s claws. Seizing a moment of distraction, Paltio lunged toward Ruby’s core, determined to end her. But before he could reach it, Ruby’s eyes flared with an intense glow, unleashing laser beams that sliced through the air like invisible talons.Paltio raised the gloves to deflect the attacks, dodging each one with agility, but instead of advancing, he retreated several steps. “Damn it!” he shouted, frustration boiling over. “If this keeps up, we’ll never take her down.”At that moment, Golden telepathically contacted Paltio’s friends. The news that the prince was still alive brought them fleeting relief, though their concern about the chaos sprea

“I’m in position, boss,” Toco-Toco reported with a barely audible meow.“Good, follow those inspectors,” Golden ordered. “And if you see anything that could incriminate us, let me know. I’ll keep a mental channel open for you.”“Yes, sir! Meow!” the cat replied enthusiastically.Toco-Toco followed the inspectors closely to a building that resembled a futuristic laboratory. Upon entering, the feline observed as they placed several samples on a long metallic table. The fragments were strange—some faintly glowed, while others emitted a soft hum.“Boss! I saw a bunch of samples on the table. Meow!” Toco-Toco reported. “What’s next?”Golden responded calmly: “Inspect the samples. If you find anything that could incriminate us, do whatever it takes to dispose of it.”The cat activated his special power: a magical eye capable of detecting energy traces. With supernatural speed, he examined each sample until he found something alarming.“Boss, there are traces of Nakia’s magic dust on one of

As they fell, luckily for them, Mok managed to grab Alita and Ron just before they hit the bottom. With a swift motion, he used his swarm of knives as a cushion, strategically deploying them to slow their descent. When they finally came to a stop, the three of them looked around, bewildered.“What is this place?” they wondered in unison, gazing at what appeared to be an abandoned mine. The walls were covered in moss and moisture, and the air was heavy and cold, laden with distant echoes that reverberated like whispers.“We should hide from those things,” Mok urged, pointing toward the shadows that still seemed to lurk above.Meanwhile, Paltio illuminated the path with his boots, their light flickering faintly in the darkness. Though he tried to conceal it, the place filled him with visceral fear. The oppressive atmosphere and ghostly sounds didn’t help; every corner seemed to hide a spirit or entity waiting to strike.“Coward,” Lukeandria murmured with a half-smile, noticing how Palti

Paltio continued to wait for a response from Golden, but the silence in his mind was overwhelming. The specters were now just a few steps away, their skeletal figures casting menacing shadows under the dim light of the cave. Just when it seemed there was no escape, something strange happened.“Take this, foolish specters!” Silver shouted with determination, holding in his hands a device that resembled a giant vacuum cleaner. He activated the machine, and a powerful suction began pulling the specters toward him. They started to scream, but this time it wasn’t a cry of rage or pain—it sounded more like a lament filled with annoyance and frustration.Without stopping, Silver continued operating his weapon. The two entities were completely sucked into the device, struggling desperately as they tried to free themselves, but it was futile. Finally, Silver turned off the machine and sealed the vacuum bag inside a container covered in ancient symbols. With skill, he molded the container betwe

When I turned eleven, my brother decided to go fight, following in my father’s footsteps. He had spent all that time training a group of surviving soldiers, planning to reclaim what was once ours and avenge our fallen. With determination, we returned to the place where our home once stood.At first, it seemed like we might succeed. We managed to push the invaders back, but our hope was short-lived. Tejod returned, summoned by his general, and this time he showed no mercy. He summoned those beings we’ve already faced: the Spelectrums, relentless creatures that obliterated everything in their path. My mother fell before them with a heart-wrenching scream that still echoes in my memory. My brother continued to fight bravely, but it was clear we were losing. Everything was lost.I wanted to keep fighting, to prove that I had learned enough to face them, but my brother stopped me once again. Before knocking me out, his last words resonated in my mind like an indelible echo: “Live, sister.”
