Chapter 180 Superhombre?

"That was disgusting," I said after I called Sofia back into the room. I had tried to scan the brown goop, but it just came up as an unknown compound.

"What happened? Did you use laser vision on him or something, Superhombre?" Sofia teased me, and I rolled my eyes.

"Maybe I should get a suit and glasses like him?" I asked as my body shifted to look like Clark Kent from the man of steel.

"Don't give me any weird ideas, Papi. I already heard from Gaia that you two were doing some weird stuff that I now have to try. Thank you for adding another kink to my oversized trunk! Aye, ye ye, you are one strange one, but I kind of like it," Sofia said as she leaned into me, resting her head on my shoulder. "What are we going to do about the melted pile of shit?"

"Not sure. I am still trying to figure out what he was trying to hide. Next time we find one, I want a way to subdue it. I don't like them. They are zookeepers that do what they do more for their own entertainment and pleasure," I said with disgust, and Sofia nodded.

"I will get Arbol Viejo to put it in a containment bubble, and we will take it back to the lab for testing. I will see if there is anything I can get out of it," Sofia said, and I sighed.

"Did you get any farther than this, or was this the only thing that you saw?" I asked.

"This was as far as I got. I sent the other two off, but I wanted to wait with Filus until you got here. I honestly thought that the alien was going to be more helpful. Now I am more curious than ever to know what they are hiding. When we get back, I will work on some frequency devices that we can slap on creatures to put them asleep," Sofia explained, and I grinned.

"We sound just as bad as them," I chuckled, and Sofia pulled back from me and gave me a look.

"We are much better than them. We are trying to figure out how we can protect ourselves from all these different races. It is like everyone has some kind of ulterior motives. I was really hoping that there were going to be more good people in the universe," Sofia said with a sigh, and I smiled.

"There are some good ones, but there are many more bad ones from what I have gathered," I said, and well, then Dracos on my back was squirming. "We need to deal with this one I got in my back before we go. I need your help to edit this male Drakar. I want to make it female, but I need you to hold it while I take the mind out of it first."

"You want me to hold it? How did you even make it in here with that thing on your back?!" Why am I only noticing it now?!" Sofia exclaimed, and I laughed.

"Sensory overload. Seriously, this thing is pretty strong, and I can't use my roots while ripping a mind that won't want to come out. I will have to put all my focus into this, so I would prefer if the monster doesn't start chewing on me," I explained, and Sofia rolled her eyes.

I had some experience with taking out some of the Annokale that had lost their minds. They resist being pulled out of a body that wasn't their own. This Dracos was probably going to be a lot harder.

"Arbol Viejo! Come help me hold the space lizard!" Sofia called, and the ground cracked as the large green arms grew from the ground.

Then they gave Sofia two middle fingers.

"Oh really? Real mature, you rotten fungus!" Sofia snapped.

One fist closed, and the other pretended to crank an invisible handle, making the middle finger extend again.

"Oh, that is it! I am going to turn you into kindling!" Sofia roared and started to look around the room; for what I was not sure, but this was not being productive, so I cleared my throat.

"Hey, Sporty Spice, we didn't come here for you to fight with the trees. Can we please get this over with? I actually would like to explore the rest of the base," I said with a sigh, and Sofia threw her hands into the air.

"This tree is always trying to get under my skin!" Sofia declared, and I rolled my eyes.

"And you are an angel that can do no wrong," I said with a sigh, and Sofia stabbed her finger at me.

"Exactly! See, I knew you agreed with me!" Sofia laughed, and one of the hands grew into a face, and both Mr. Tree and I facepalmed. "Alright, Alright! I get it. Let it out, and we will hold it for you."

With her words, green vines burst from Sofia's back like my silver roots did, but hers were much thinner than mine. I brought the silver cocoon forward and slowly started to uncoil from the Dracos.

Slowly, the creature was revealed, but it had a wild look on its face, and it had also stopped moving.

"Get ready to grab it. It is very likely coiling up to try to break free!" I said as I concentrated on the creature that was staring at me.

'I will kill your she, and then I will make you pay for insulting our great mother, Tiamat!' The Dracos roared into my mind, but I ignored it. I would soon be taking face to face with this creature.

"I am ready. Let me have the Space Newt!" Sofia laughed, and I let go.

Everything happened so fast. The Dracos tried to jump at Sofia, but Mr. Tree had already grabbed its massive ankles. The creature fell forward, and more roots popped up from the ground, pinning the Dracos without Sofia doing anything.

"See? I told you I had it all under control!" Sofia declared as I let out a long breath.

"You are just lucky that Mr. Tree was on point. Tilt the creature's head up so I can see its eyes," I sighed as I walked around the Drakar.

"Can't you just tell me that I did a good job?!" Sofia complained as her vines pulled the head of the creature up.

I still had to squat down as my red Memory Gem pressed out of the skin on my forehead. I looked into the creature's eyes and activated the gem, sucking me into another room like before, but this was one I made.

The Dracos was in there, but he was pinned to the wall like she was on the ground in the real world.

"What is this place?!"

"This is a space that I made inside of your mind. I am here to take you from this body. I need it," I explained, and the creature narrowed its eyes on me.

"Why not just take it then? I am a soldier, and I am loyal only to Tiamat," the Dracos hissed at me, and I nodded.

"True, but I am still going to stick you into a basic clone and see how you interact with everyone. I really don't want to have to keep killing everyone," I said with a sigh, and the lizard laughed at me.

"You picked the wrong person to mess with if that is your wish. While you are alive, and Tiamat's heart beats within you, death will always follow you!"

"Possibly, but it doesn't hurt to try. Don't worry. If you cause me problems, I will kill you. That is not a problem. I already killed either ship's worth that was on the way here. If you want to join the dead now, let me know, and I will just toss your mind into the cosmos," I said, and the creature went silent.

"What is the point of offering me a new body if you know that I will not be loyal?"

"Oh, you will be loyal. If you try to kill anyone or even hurt them, the body won't let you. Mess up enough times, and you will be killed in the body just like it was your own. I am trying to find a way for everyone to coexist, and it probably won't work, but I will try," I explained.

It was easier to do this if I could get him to agree to leave, and being frank with this creature seemed to be the way of them. There was no point in beating around the bush. I knew this might not work, but I would learn something from the experiment.

"Fine. I am dead anyways, so let me see what a lower lifeform's life is like. Tiamat would probably kill me herself if she could for this," The creature said with its own sign.

"I cut her off from your mind. You are no longer a Drakar; you are an earthling now. One of us!" I laughed and then pulled the willing mind from the Dracos body, sucking back into my own body.
