My body agreed with me. Holding my side, I carefully rolled over to discover Kreb in KayCee’s bioform crawling towards me. While a large portion of the damage Tavish had done to him had been repaired, it was a toss-up on who was in worse shape. He was holding that device he had shot KayCee with back in the alley at the beginning of this whole misadventure. I should have checked all the pouches when I took the orb.

Speaking of which. “Tavish, I’m hurt bad. Stand by.” I slipped my free hand into my jacket pocket palmed the orb. Unfortunately, that was my right hand, and I was a leftie. My cousin’s voice came through my fallen phone. “For what?”

“You know that game Stella and I used to play with you when we were little? The one you hated? Well, Kreb’s it.”

I watched Kreb as he slowly crawled closer. As he reached my feet, I pulled out the orb and whipped it towards the opening. I whiffed it and the orb struck the wall. However, I got lucky, and it ricocheted off the wall and out the hatch. “Tavish, now!”

Kreb turned his head to watch the orb arc through the air and out of the saucer. He said something in his language that sounded like a swear. “You are the most infuriating human I have ever dealt with.”

“Wait until you get to know Tavish and Stella better. Compared to them, I’m a freaking saint.” My smirk turned to horror as I saw the now familiar red motes that signified Kreb’s energy form emanating from the bioform. I didn’t need to worry about finding a way for my adrenaline to spike. It was currently at hitting the roof level. I pulled out the water bottle and took a sip. As soon as the water hit my tongue, the tingle started. I really needed a better name for that. My whole body transformed into water, and I collapsed into a puddle. Thanks to the angle the saucer was tilted, I slid right out the door and down the ramp. Once on the ground I reformed. And of course, I was naked.

Wait a minute, I did that. Not the auto control of my body. Does that mean I’m learning how to control it, or did it just go along with me?

I checked my side. Pink-looking new skin covered the wound, but I could feel I was still seriously damaged inside.

Stella stood over the orb but was having trouble fending off a dual attack by Dennis and Mary. There were bits and pieces of roggies everywhere. Tavish had really mowed them down.

Unseen by the two of them, I limped over and picked up Brunhilda. I checked the magazine to discover one round left. Stella, seeing what I was doing, pressed an attack, keeping both of them occupied. I moved in close, raised the barrel up about ten inches from the back of Mary’s head, and pulled the trigger.

“I am so sorry whoever you really are.
