Chapter 227 - Feros final part

Vincent took out one of their space devices and placed it on Wrex making a blue transparent membrane cover him completely until he wakes up and puts his helmet on.

"What is that device?" asks Tali as Vincent smiled at her.

"It is a transparent space suit. If you had one of those you wouldn't need your full-bodysuit or a helmet when you are out in space but they only work for one full day before they need to be recharged again," says Ellana explaining when she also points at Vincent's helmet and the membrane over his skin.

"This is a smaller model but more efficient as it can last longer than a week compared to this older model. But the newer one can go way up to over a week while the military edition can hold up to two months since an emergency is quite common on a ship," says Ellana as Wrex wakes up.

He was holding his head before he even noticed the membrane over his body and the others standing in front of him.

"Where am I and what happened to me?" asks Wrex as he was quite exhausted not knowing why.

"Back from the dead," says Vincent as he helped the Krogan up.

"You were controlled by someone or something and the others might be as well controlled," says Tristan informing the Krogan who became quite angry as he was spouting off insults into the air.

"You should put your helmet on if you don't want to fall into its control again," says Vincent as Wrex notices the membrane.

"This is?" asks Wrex as Vincent informed him before Wrex puts the helmet on and Vincent removes the device from Wrex's armor.

"There are tracks here!" shouts Ellana as everyone walks in her direction.

"It seems Titania and her group isn't alone. Going by the tracks they are at least five people in her current group," says Ellana hinting that more people are being controlled.

"Maybe they belong to the other two bodies we found on our way here," says Tristan as Vincent looked at the wall which was plastered with plants.

"We should continue on our way. Going by what we saw the fight was recently and the thing controlling them thought that Wrex was done for leaving him behind to die," says Vincent as Wrex reloaded his shotgun.

"Let's get that son of a bitch," says Wrex angry as he takes the lead.

They followed him as the group didn't want to split apart because of the danger of being attacked by the unknown enemy that is controlling their friends and family.

Arriving in the next room they thought they were in a greenhouse that went out of control. They could see Titania and the other two standing beside two Asari holding their weapon.

"Intruders, we need to kill them. They can't reach it," says Titania as she pointed her gun at the group.

Tristan was so shocked that his own sister was about to open fire against him when Vincent grabs him and drags him behind cover.

"Get a hang of yourself. Your sister is being controlled by whatever is in control of this whole facility. We need to take her down so we can clear her head," says Vincent as Tristan seems to get a hold of himself.

"What do we do?" asks Garrus as he had them in his scope.

"Non-lethal approach, we don't want to kill our friends," says Tristan as Garrus points at the chest area instead of the heads.

"Good decision but not the best," says Vincent when he looks at Wrex.

"Can you help me storm them, Wrex?" asks Vincent as Wrex seemed to smile.

"So we are going to engage them in close-combat. It should work," says Wrex liking the idea since in a duel between a Human against a Krogan the Krogan will always win.

"Good," says Vincent when he turns to Tristan and says, "Give me and my group covering fire. Once we are near them we will take them out. Once out cold we will extract the spores of their body."

"Alright," says Tristan as he turns to his group and says, "You heard him. We will provide covering fire to get them as close as possible to the others."

Everyone was in position as Vincent shouts, "Now!"

His group begins to move closer in while bullets were around them when they got at least a quarter of the distance covered when he waited for the other group to reload when Tristan shouts, "Now!"

That was the signal and they continued to pressing forward using the same style until they reached the other group. They jump out of cover as Vincent took Titania as his opponent. Ciri fought against Ashley while Wrex fought against Kaidan. Anra and Ellana fought against the two Asari.

It was easy to overwhelm them since they are being controlled and aren't at their full capacity to fight back when Vincent just spears her to the ground before he knocks her out.

Once everyone was out cold Vincent took out the same device he used on Wrex and placed it against Titania's armor before taking more of them out to protect the other two as well.

Anra began the extraction right away as the group looked at their friends when Tristan says, "We should out of here and burn this whole facility down."

"Not a good idea," says Ciri as Tristan looked at her.

"Why not?" asks Tristan as Ciri sighs.

"My family used to kill monsters for coin. Many people think that monsters die if you put everything on fire but that isn't true. Most Monsters are resistant to fire and we don't even know what we are facing here. We could anger it making it leave its lair and attack the people outside," says Ciri having seen it enough times in her lifetime.

"She is right. If that thing survives and people come to this planet to colonize it they will be in danger if we can't confirm it is really dead," says Vincent as Anra was done with them.

They woke the three up and they had the same symptoms as Wrex had when Titania asks, "What happened and why is everyone here?"

Tristan took her in a long hug surprising her as Vincent says, "You were being controlled by something."

"Controlled?" asks Ashley as the group nods.

"I was also controlled. You all left me to die in another room," says Wrex as the three people felt a bit guilty about it.

"Anyway, you should put your helmet on so I can remove the devices from your body," says Vincent as they put their helmet on when Vincent takes the devices from their armors.

"We need to find that thing and get revenge," says Titania as Wrex smiles since Titania was thinking the same as he did.

They pressed on continuing forward as they arrived at a bigger room in which a cocoon seemed to be in the air supported by ranks coming out of it. Anra looked at it and pulled out her weapon as did Ellana and Ciri.

"It seems we have arrived at what was controlling you," says Vincent when suddenly the ranks around them attacked them.

Ellana stops them in midair right in front of their faces with one hand before a giant stream of fire formed on the tip of her staff which incinerated the ranks that tried to attack them.

"It seems it can't compete with Francesca's talent in Nature Magic," says Ellana as she learned everything about Nature Magic from her.

"It is a plant that is sentinel it seems," says Anra looking at it.

"But it isn't like the Eldergleam Tree which loves peace. This one just repulses me just from seeing it," says Anra giving her opinion about the thing.

"Then let us cut it down and burn it so we can return," says Titania as her Omni-Blade manifested when suddenly someone shot at her.

The group turned around and saw one of the civilians pointing his gun at them when soon even more of them appeared and Vincent got a bad feeling that the civilians from the very beginning were being controlled by that thing.

"We need to kill it as fast as possible," says Vincent as he manifested a barrier that blocked the civilians from entering the room.

"We should have known that the civilians were also controlled by that thing. Maybe they send the people down here so that the thing could control them," says Titania as she was furious as her biotics manifested in a purple aura which she used to frontal attack the thing with the blade in front.

"Leave something for me," says Wrex as he shoots at the thing with his shotgun separating it from some of the ranks hanging below it.

Everyone else joined them as they needed to finish this as fast as possible with Ellana stopping the attacks of the thing while Anra straight-up burned the walls and ground into ashes.

Soon the thing was on the ground and Titania killed it freeing everyone from its mind control as the civilians all fell over.

"It seems they are free finally free. We should also get the Asari that we left behind with the wolf and the other room," says Vincent as Tristan nods.

Liara walked towards the dead thing and wanted to take probes so she could study it when Ciri stops her and says, "We shouldn't do that. Just burning should be enough. But we should also clean this place completely just to make sure it doesn't have a brood nearby."

"We should take some samples and study it. What if a thing like this appears again on another planet. Should we just watch and have nothing to defend us against it," says Liara making a good point.

"Witchers also study Monsters to fight against them more efficiently. We should allow Liara to take some probes before we clean this whole facility," says Vincent as they began right away while a little group watched over the civilians.
