The three had settled down after escaping the ship and the alien was telling them his side of the story.
" so you expect us to believe that in the mist of this war there was a human mentally unstable enough to become your father?"mercury asked just before she was smacked in the back of the head by Romeo.
" Be nice "
"but-"
" Don't talk back, apologize" mercury just puffed her cheeks while she just sat in his lap
"s-sorry, there I said it happy now ?" Romeo only gave her his best smile smile and she rolled her eyes and snuggled herself to him
Their new companion witnessing this weird display couldn't help but chuckle .
" glad you're enjoying yourself" .
"I'm sorry but you're quite the strange pair"
" how so?" they both asked.
" well no one would expect a father and his daughter to be destroying fleet ships like this " Mercury just got excited..
" see told you people think you're my dad" Romeo just had a weary expression on his face while he had to admit they had the same hair and did have slightly similar features but that's not evidence.
" back to you and mercury you listen too, just because it's war doesn't that our enemies are bad people and if you're looking at appearance then the Teserect don't look all that different from us save for the three red eyes and pointy ears do you get that?" she nodded her head while the alien seemed to continue his story.
" well I haven't said my name yet but it's Dalik manchester, my parents like I said before where different races and made it work somehow and had me, the empire found out and tried to kill them well they did succeed in ending their lives...,"he paused for a few seconds when Romeo spoke
" so it's revenge?" Romeo asked while mercury seemed to be nodding off .
" somewhat I would actually just love for this war to end...I'm tired of killing people" he Said solemnly and Romeo got up and placed mercury on his back seeing as she had fallen asleep.
" let's move so we can find where to sleep we'll talk later"

" wow so are you saying that was the first hybrid the worlds ever had?" Trixy asked as she stored away a useful looking folder in her bag .
"I wouldn't say the first, there where others who could have come before him but he was the most noted " he said while inspecting a weird looking test tube with a worm black wiggling thing in it ' what the hell is this?'
"oh I see" Trixy brought his attention back .
on Mercury's side Romeo was furiously scratching the back of his ear.
"something wrong ?" she asked
" my ears are killing me here"
"did something bite you let me see " mercury said.
"nah maybe someone's talking about us"
" then why don't I feel it?" she tilted her Head in confusion.
" cause you gossip alot that's why"
" I do not.."
" shall I check your browser history ?"
"hehe.. please stop"she gave and akward laugh before he continued removing rubble and then.
"what t-" Romeo's head exploded in a gory shower of blood as something shot out of the hole and landed on the ground behind her .
" oh my " she exclaimed as she stared at the blob, it morphed and started to stretch it started forming what looked like arms and then took on the shape of.
"well ain't this something dad? it looks like you "
" I thought you stopped calling me that " Romeo's head had regenerated and he was now slowly standing up .
"oh please we're alone now and it's not like almost everyone doesn't know about us in the first place"she responded
" It's still embarrassing" Romeo cracked his neck while the creature seemed to be inspecting it's body and occasionally looking around.
" it seems to be confused"mercury said while she watched it's strange behavior .
" I don't really care let's kill -hmm?" something had pierced through his stomach it looked like it was part of the creature.
(ja...son) mercury had her eyes open wide more surprised by the name it called .
"this thing doesn't like me much huh? and here I was thinking I'd get a son this time " mercury giggled a little
(must...fight... bastard).
" let's get rid of it quick" Romeo walked forward and string's could be seen attaching themselves to his body as his shadow started to wrap around his body till it covered everything except his face. mercury smiled as she raised her hands and Romeo's body looked like it had gone limp for a second before standing straight abruptly.
[ DERANGED MARIONETTE: SHADOW DANCER] Romeo dashed forward and tried to Slash at the creature with his hand but it dodged and tried to counter when Romeo's body shifted into a strange position and avoided the attack only to deliver a kick with his closet leg to its head.
The creature rubbed the place it had been struck as it had indented from the kick, the creature seemed to have been angered as it rushed at the two and started growing larger and more body parts .
" This thing is just outright gross" she said in disgust " humph but that's all" Romeo's body stood straight again before blood started to pour from his eyes and as soon as a drop touched the ground .
[ DERANGED MARIONETTE: BLOODY MARY]
There was an explosion which sent tremors which Jin and Trixy felt.
" woah why was that?" she asked.
" guess the others aren't that far from us that literally could have been hercules, widow,your brother or Romeo and mercury" he said flatly.
" you're not curious? "
" would it make the work hi faster?" she shook her head and he pointed back to her pile of books she had yet to sort .
" can you at least continue the story ?" Jin seemed to think about it for a while when he felt another tremor ' it's probably nothing'
Romeo was carrying mercury who looked unconcious in his hands and sprinting at full speed .
" holy shit, holy shit what in the actual fuck?" he glanced behind him as an army of deformed versions of his savagely chased after them tripping and stepping over each other just to move forward .
" kyaaa it's dad shaped zombies !!"
" wrong time for this and I don't think they're zombies....not really anyway" he scolded her as he stabbed one of them that had got too close but it just stumbled and split into two and started running again. ' where the fuck is jin when you need him.
" sure I guess where was I? oh yes" . Jin said continuing the story
