Three hundred miles away, a Villain Ai named Dathkar was slowly making its way closer to Daniel. It was running into a bit of trouble, though.
In fact, since Dathkar had first entered his host, he had been having problems. The data showed that this horrible person wanted to be an overlord, and many people had said mean things about this person.
Yet, from the moment that Dathkar had entered his host Chelsea's mind, she had refused to cooperate. This person was supposed to be a person who killed many people, and Dathkar had read the reviews from those who died.
That should have been the first indication that something was wrong, but this world seemed to be built on misinformation. Other AI all over the world were having the same problems, but some of them had been compatible.
This one was not, and she was incredibly strong-willed for a younger girl, making Dathkar's job a lot harder. The plan was to take her to Orphus, and his Hero would deal with her, and then Dathkar could go back up to the central hive above the planet.
There was already one up there, lured to the Hero by Orphus. Mensha would be getting bored up there, but Dathkar would soon join him.
That was if he could get this damn woman to where the Hero was. Part of the problem was that Orphus had gone silent, so Dathkar only had a general direction.
"If you would just keep going, we can end this already! The Hero will kill you, and I will be free to go watch this mess unfold! Why must you fight me?" Dathkar asked in Chelsea's mind.
"As if you even have to ask! I don't want to die!" Chelsea screamed as she tried to force her body to return to her home.
Two days ago, Chelsea had made a trip to the store to pick up some snacks before she started her stream, but all the lights had gone out on her way home. Her phone had stopped working, but at the time, the cars were still fine, so she didn't think much about it.
Then, when Chelsea was just about at her apartment, something happened to her from out of nowhere. Her body started to tear itself apart, and she started to grow to almost four times her original size into a twenty-foot tall lizard that made her look like a mini Godzilla.
That was also when the creepy voice had started talking to her, trying to force her to kill people, but Chelsea fought back. She had always been strong-willed and had worked her butt off to reach the top ranks in KFPS Online.
Chelsea had managed to get out of the city, but not before many people had died due to them attacking her with weapons. Her body discharged lightning when attacked, even if people shot at her.
Now, even though she was fighting to stay away from this so-called Hero, Chelsea wasn't sure if even that was right. Maybe she should just die, just to make sure that no one else was killed by her, but she didn't want to die.
According to the creepy voice, the world had changed, and even if she could somehow go back, she could never stream again. The internet was gone forever, but maybe she could fight this voice and use her power to help people.
"No matter how hard you fight, people will always be scared of you! They will always attack you, and you will kill them. There is really no other way around it! Now, be a good girl, since you have been useless so far, and go die so I can go home!" Dathkar complained, but Chelsea refused to believe it and continued to fight the AI.
"All right, I am going to leave you with your parents and get things set up. Please stay inside with them until I come back from the fight. I have no idea what is going to happen, but I want to try and capture the person if I can," I explained, and Marley nodded.

"I understand, but make sure you are careful. If you have some more energy after, maybe we can go out to the pasture and do some sparing," Marley said shyly, blushing.
"Sparing? After a good soak, I am sure I will be good to go!" I laughed, but Marley came out close, putting her mouth to my ear.
"But without any clothes at first. I want whatever the other girls got first, and then we can try with some clothes on," Marley whispered and then nipped my earlobe, sending a shock through my body that I wasn't expecting.
She stepped back before I could grab her for a kiss and smiled at me with a knowing look that made my blood pump hard. This was the first time she had really acted like this with me, and she had caught me pleasantly off guard.
"Sure, I will definitely have the energy for that; I just hope that this Villain stops taking its sweet time! I will make sure to wrap this up quick, don't you worry!" I said with a smile, and Marley nodded, smiling back.
"Yes, I am sure that you will. Now get going so you can come back!" Marley told me and then ran back into the house, leaving me with my dirty thoughts for later.
The unease was getting closer, but it was still at a staggered pace. I headed out to the pasture and started to scan the animals as I went getting cows, chickens, and a donkey, but my target was a big rise at the far back.
That was where I was going to be putting my watch tree, but there were also strange bushes that looked like wild rhubarb at first when it started to grow. It grew to over six feet tall and created large spiky balls that seemed to stick to everything.
There were other varieties of burs and wood ticks I was interested in and other nasty little bugs that could become useful in the future. All of these things would take a bit of time, but I could always get what I missed tomorrow.
