Chapter 18 - Takeover: Part 2

"Hmmm, those glowing eyes again... I'll jump to that basketball hoop thing next to him and attack from above."

ZZZZZHHH!

The alternate jumped onto the basketball hoop avoiding Yabo's lasers. While still shooting out the lasers from his eyes, Yabo said, "Huh!? Where'd he go!?" This alternate was extremely fast. If you compared the speeds of all the other alternates Group 4 had encountered in the past few years to this one, it'd be kinda like the Usain Bolt of alternates.

"Above you!", Kohei screamed from the other corner of the room who was still trying to regenerate from the damage while Hina guarded him. Yabo looked up and saw the alternate coming down with his nails sharpened ready to cut through his head. Yabo tried to dodge it by going forward but couldn't evade it fully. The alternate had sliced his back.

"AHHHHH!", Yabo screamed.

"Weren't you saying something about being on the same level as I?"

Yabo groaned from the pain. Even though Yabo was right about being a 1st class medium, the same level as the alternate before him, alternates have a natural advantage over alternate-users. You see, most alternate-users only have access to the 2nd form, the one that allows them to transform specific parts of their bodies into their alternate causing only those parts of their body to get the alternate abilities such as super durability. Only few manage to achieve the 3rd form, the one that allows alternate-users to transform their whole body into their alternate while still keeping their own consciousness, preventing the alternate takeover.

This doesn't exist with alternates since obviously, they are the alternate themselves. They posses their abilities such as super durability all over their body at all times.

If that slice attack had been done to the alternate, he would've been fine but Yabo, being a alternate-user and using the 2nd form on his eyes and arms only was affected by the slice to his untransformed back.

"Goddammit! I have to use the 2nd form on my back now to regenerate the damage but that means I can't attack him at all since my arms and eyes will be untransformed. I should've trained more so I could be able to transform more of myself... Fuck, I should've listened to the chairman all those times..."

"Hmmm. Even though you posses our abilities, I was able to slice through your back so easily. It seems you people are not as powerful as us, that is to be expected I guess."

"I have to evade him until my back regenerates..."

"Rejoice, human. You get to die by my hands.", The alternate said as he sharpened all of his nails.

"Damnit!"

The alternate began swinging around his nails trying to cut Yabo but he kept on dodging him again and again. "Hmmm. You have good skills indeed." Yabo couldn't keep up for long though. His back was still seriously injured and it would take proper focus to heal it quickly. Eventually, the alternate just wrapped one of its arms around Yabo stopping him from dodging.

Yabo chuckled. "Come on, we were have having fun. Don't be such a bore, you disgusting fuck."

The alternate began offended again. "Hmmm, I would've loved to study you and suck out more information about you and and your friends but you have quite the dirty mouth on you, you'll have to die for that."

brrrrrt!

The alternate got distracted by Hina firing with her AK again. "Stop trying this, its pathetic to even think this could ha-" As he said that, Kohei stretched out his right arm and shoved it inside the alternate's mouth. "What the bloody hell!?"

Kohei then sharpened his nails and started slicing around the inside of the alternate. "This is all I can do, Yabo! Just heal up and beat this guy already!"

Yabo smiled. "You got it, useful bum!" Since the alternate was distracted, Yabo could focus fully on regenerating his back and now, it had been healed.

"Ahh! Stop this, you insolent human!", The alternate screamed. He then sharpened his teeth and bit into Kohei's hand separating it from his body. "Kohei!", Hina screamed. Kohei looked over at her and said, "Don't worry, Hina! I'll be fine... Just focus on playing support for Yabo." Hina nodded and then continued firing at the alternate.

"Woman! You stop it too or else I'll-"

Yabo dashed towards the alternate using 2nd form on his legs. Mid-air, he transferred the 2nd from from his legs to his arms and then landed a swift blow on the alternate's face causing it to start bleeding out. "AHHH!", The alternate screamed.

Immediately after landing, Yabo again transferred the 2nd form. This time, from his arms to his eyes and activated his heat vision.

VZZZT! ZZZZZHHH!

The lasers damaged the alternate and pushed him back into the wall.

"Sorry for my under-performance before, I ain't gonna make the same mistake of not locking in again.", Yabo said with a massive grin on his face.

The alternate began slowing out the destroyed wall, through the dust and the broken debris. "That's enough, I've played with you people for long enough."

Yabo began laughing in a taunting manner. "Was that supposed to scare me!? I ain't scared at all, you disgusting fu-"

"YOU ARE ALL DEAD."

Back in the pocket dimension inside Shimisu corporations, Takeru was still getting experimented on by the masked scientist on the 10th floor. It had been multiple hours since the experiment started and it was nowhere as bad as Takeru thought. The masked figured had just been cutting different areas of Takeru's body and testing on them. That hurt a lot but Takeru could immediately regenerate them making the pain last barely a second. They were also making Takeru do certain actions that involved using the 2nd form and stretching out and sharpening specific areas to study him but they weren't all that difficult.

"Alright, you can leave now." It was now finally done and Takeru walked out the room with relief but he second he walked out, he bumped into The Chairman.

"Umm. What is it, Sir?"

"Kid, I need you to head to Itabashi High School, your team members need you. Group 4 is facing annihilation."

"HUH!?"
