Chapter 172 - Portal [#6]

It was night when they came.

It was sudden and every single Sentinel resting on the base activated at the same time, emergency alarms echoed in the air as the earth started to shake- an earthquake. The Pure Blood family taught oversaw this camp of Mutant Scum were woken up by their personal guards, who were their own little mutie slaves that had to follow their every order or else the collar around their neck would tense and inject them with a powerful poison, killing them instantly. "Faster Scum!" The father, Lord Grant Herrington, of the Herrington Pure Blood family shouted while following the scum mutant that guided them- The whole world changed after the Pure Blood system was introduced by the higher ups, those who had the chance to produce the X-gene or had the gene were reduced to nothing more than trash while those who didn't have the chance to produce the gene in their next generation were he new "Pure Blood".

"Yes master." It's been 50 years ever since, and this system has become the new normal. Of course not for the people who have been opposed and abused, the explosions and noise out there were the proof of that: "Honey, they're destroying my yard!" His wife, Cynthia Goldenseal was another one from one of the most powerful Pure Blood families: The Goldenseal had connections to the US Goverment, and now they are one of the families that produce the Hunters- Which is how the Pure Bloods call the Sentinels- and distribute it around whenever a Pure Blood family buys one. They said they're developing a new one, who can adapt faster to new powers from different Muties, so they can better hunt them but it's been 3 months and there's no update on that yet. "I know honey." He sighed, their children: Enersto Herrington Goldenseal and Maria Herrington Goldenseal are twins, with 7 years of age on their backs but fully adapted to the Pure Blood concept, riding on the back of another young teen with his back completely destroyed by lashes.

Horses were their names, a special type of slaves, used as the name says as mounts. Most of them are Beta Mutants whose mutation makes so their physical appearance is changed, but this one had the same appearence as a normal human with one single exception: A long tail. Is that it? that's his mutant ability? No, his mutant power has been suppressed his whole life, from the moment he was born from his slave mother to this very moment! 18 years of his life spent with a collar around his neck and two shackles on his arms, and the only thing that could manifest from his body was a tail, he was born with it, and he grew up with it. In fact, his power was more than that, but he would only learn of this later- "Oh, Horus was right~" Suddenly, a creepy voice echoed in the hallway of their home, they were almost reaching the secret exit when their guards stopped before falling, unconscious. "Welp, Boss told me to get you so... Please come along with no resistance pwease~" The voice sounded weirdly distant in a moment before it was whispering on their ears, it was creepy, but creepier was when they looked up to see this long and thin humanoid centipede, hanging from the ceiling.

It cracked its neck and turned back to look at them, with its eight red eyes staring at them: "Come along now, I was only told to take you alive-" It vanished before their eyes, going invisble- "Nothing was said about missing a few limbs~!" Arms bursted out of the ground around them, from the walls, ceiling, and floor, engulfing their bodies before they could even react- As if they could, their bodies were frozen in fear! Or were they? In fact, Loki (Or Bee) power is to create and manipulate illusions, they can create any type of illusion and make them physical! Their illusions are so powerful they can even affect the physical state of the person, saying if they created an illusion in their mind and that illusion killed the target, the target could die from it (It's a techniques they are still developing). Frozen and with wide eyes, the family of four stood there while their guards vanished- they were never there to begin with, and Loki was having too much fun leading the family to their demise! "Now, team~" Suddenly, from the darkness, a group of 10 people appeared! They had scouted the whole mansion, took as many things they could (From information, documents, technological advanced items, processed food, medicine, and more) while Loki was playing with their food.

"Let's go back... Portal-cutie-" The member of their squad that could open portals up to 500 meters blushed under their mask as they kept listening: "Let's take our people out of here..."

-Scene Cut-

Vulcan grinned as his hand gathered a red sphere of energy, heat and light shone from his hands before the sphere shot out of his hand- It directly hit the Sentinel he was aiming for and it exploded! He wasn't an Omega Ranking Mutant for nothing, the Sentinel was torn asunder under his mighty blasting energy, he wanted that which was promised by his leader to the one who destroyed the more Sentinels, and by his counting he destroyed 7 already! "I'm ahead!" He grinned, his hand aiming for the next Sentinel when a sudden sharp blade of water cut it from the air into half before he could even try to explode it- So you know, these things are heavy and hard to destroy, just the fact that they are destroying them is the result of their rigorous and dangerous training they went through thanks to their leader Genesis. "Hey! That was mine!" He turned to look at the grinning girl who trew several other blades of water, cutting several other Sentinels in half- She was destroying more than him at this point.

'No- I need to destroy more!' He spread his arms before charging forward, using his energy to reforce his body both internally and externally, making him stronger and faster, he flew fast and kept hitting Sentinels with his fists and with energy blasts and other forms of long ranged attacks, he kept counting- 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, and when he reached 15 he was surrounded by a group of 5 smaller Sentinels, they counted anyway so he gathered his energy around and exploded it around with a blasting aura! He watched as the Sentinels were completely obliterated by the blast of energy- He only noticed too late when the energy was about to hit a few of the innocent mutants! So lost on his battle, he didn't notice how he flew after some Sentinels that gathered around some Mutants to try and take them back or kill them, he destroyed them all with a powerful blast of energy was too powerful, he put too much energy on it and it was now spreading towards the innocent mutants! 'No!' He shouted inside his head while trying to take control over the energy that he already sent out, which failed.

It wasn't as easy to take control over an energy he already sent out!

But, before his eyes, he watched as a circle of blue energy spread forward, making it act like a wall that absorbed the energy of the attack into itself. "I see you've made a grave mistake." He heard Genesis' voice whispering on his ear as the blue portal closed and the Mutants there vanished, teleported back to Kenós under the power of their leader. "I-i'm sorry i-" He tried to apologize, years of being a slave scarred him with the instinctual need to apologize profusely whenever he makes even the tinest bit of a mistake. "It's alright... However, i think it'd be proper to ~punish~ you late." Shivers run down his spine as fear consumed his being- Punishment was the worst thing a mutie slave could be put through, and he has been put through it! But he deserves it, he almost killed his people!

Poor Vulcan, he didn't know that Genesis was only teasing him.

-Scene Cut-

Kryvo watched over the battlefield, floating above it, his eyes scanning everywhere and seeing everything! He saw many of the mistakes they were doing and kept it in mind to report to them later so they can improve. He teased Vulcan who after had this dreadful face on, Yeomna was doing well on the whole gather attention thing alongside Yahweh and Ishtar, because they were gathering a lot of Sentinels to them while Apollo makes sure he saves as many Mutants as he possibly can and introduced them to freedom. They would need some time to get out of the whole slave mindset, Kryvo sighed when he thought about what to do with the kids of the Pure Blood couple- He can probably get as much information from the couple, but the kids? They're useless for him.

However, is he ready to deal with them?

Yeah, he doesn't know, because they're kids but also he doesn't think his people would want them to live? Because they're Pure Bloods and probably tortured a few people- If they tortured a few people, then he doesn't care if they life or die. What? He doesn't like children, but if they're innocent, then they live- just because they're kids doesn't mean they don't sin.

Te battle came to an end rather quickly, with zero casualties but some hurt, those were taken care of by Apollo and his majestic healing abilities. They rescued, just from this camp, over 5 thousand Mutants and 1 thousand normal humans with the potential to have the X-Gene in their next generation. So 6,000 people! They were all introduced to who they were and what just happened before they were sent to Kenós, where a team of Alpha Mutants were ready to introduce them to their new lives! In the end, Genesis sent back the team, leaving behind the 10 Omegas before him: "We all make mistakes, so right now I'm going to tell you all your mistakes so you may improve. Yeomna and Yahweh, you both did a great job gathering their attention, however, you Yeomna focused too much on the withering of the guardsmen to protect one of your own teammates that wss hurt by your own withering attack. Yahweh, you destroyed the battlefield in half, which was good but also bad, destabilizing your feet and creatig a crevice in the battlefield was also a risk. Poseidon, your attacks almost killed some of our people, be careful with your output of power... You too Vulcan-" Vulcan bowed his head shamefully, like a puppy that was scolded. "That's why you both gotta watch your bickering, i don't want you both to act childish in the battlefield." He looked over at Apollo and nodded, Apollo didn't make many mistakes other than some wasted opportunities to shoot down some Sentinelts, but beside it? Not many things.

"Please stay behind Adam and Gabriel." Vulcan tensed alongside Yahweh, both men looked at each other, the tense atmosphere. They were both going to get punished, so its better to finish it right now! "I gathered you both here to- wait, why are you getting naked?" Kryvo was surprised to see Gabriel and Adam took off their clothes and kneeled before him, he saw their scars on their backs and knew exactly why they did such. "Oh, babies..." He whispered to himself, they must've misunderstood him! "Come here." he told them and they followed his order without much hesitation. Vulcan was a large man, bulging muscles and broad shoulders, thick thighs and a beautiful shy face- Adam, however, was more thin and compact, with some not seen muscles but definitely there if you stared long enough. "I was teasing you both when i said I'd punish you... But, look what you did to me." It took a lot of control for not to jump them, but he couldn't control how his lower clothes were torn by his not-so-little friend that wanted attention.

"Ah... fuck."
