Chapter Seven

The lights went out, and Alex and Roy stood in the darkness.

Another light fixture came flying at Alex, and she jumped to the right, dodging it. “We need to get out of here,” she shouted.

Roy looked around the room as the lights tried to flicker back on. “What’s going on?”

“I have no idea, but I know we can’t stay here to find out.”

Alex hit her dragon anchor, causing her rider armor to pour over her skin. That was better. Now she felt like she was ready to get down to business. She opened and closed her bionic fist as she headed for the door, then whipped it open and stepped forward, Roy close behind her.

They two of them stepped into a lab, the one Alex had seen in Vardis’ dream. The only difference was, this time the lab had five Vardises.

Not aliens of the same species, five Vardises.

Roy drew his pistol and aimed at one of the aliens. “Okay, no. We need to stop now, and you need to tell me what the hell is going—”

Before Roy could finish his sentence, his feet lifted off the ground. His eyes went wide as he flew across the room, hit the wall hard, and crumpled to the floor.

Alex didn’t hesitate. She drew her scythe, aware that the energy was coming from her and not from the dragon anchor. She dove forward, slashing at one of the Vardises, who faded into a white mist when it was hit. She went on the next, managing to catch it with an uppercut before she was gripped by a psychic hand and tossed at Roy.

She smashed into the wall and fell on her back, rolled over, and shook Roy back into consciousness. It was surprising that hitting a wall was enough to knock Roy out. Alex had seen him walk away from injuries that made the psychic attack look like a mosquito bite.

That was what this was. Alex had put it together. Vardis did know that she’d been in his dream. The attack on her way to the military base had only been the first step, the physical aspect. Now the alien was coming for her mind.

He must have drawn them into a psychic realm, or maybe he was projecting his own. Alex had no idea. She’d never been much into comic books. If Jim were here, he probably could have explained the whole thing.

The three remaining versions of Vardis were floating toward Alex, their eyes glowing a piercing white, energy crackling from them.

Alex helped Roy to his feet, the older man looking as if he were ready to pass out again. “You have to get it together, Roy! I need you in this fight. Last time, I hardly got out of here.”

Roy looked at Alex, his face green like he was ready to vomit. Then he straightened up and aimed his pistol. “I’m assuming we’re in trouble or something wants to kill us.”

Alex pointed at the approaching aliens. “Vardis. He wants to kill us.”

Roy leaned over and threw up.
