Doyle looked like the kind of person you wouldn't want to leave your kids around. He had a bald head and what looked like dark eyeliner around his eyes.
Niel, on the other hand, looked like the scary uncle of the family. With his after well-kept short black hair and 5 O'clock shadow.
Lia stood in front of Isaiah and said, " Me and Xavier have these two. So you guys can go ahead."
"Are you sure?" Isaiah asked.
Lia nods
"Alright, try not to take too long," Isaiah says. He kisses her on the cheek.
"Protect my girl!" Isaiah says, pointing at Lia while he and Kat fly by Niel and Doyle.
"She'll be protecting me, dude." Xavier thought.
"We won't let you fly by us that easily Neil says, as his eyes start to glow red. Then, a laser heads right for Kat's torso.
Kat senses the heat coming in her direction, so she turns her skin into dragon scales.
"Ahh." Kat grunts in pain.
Before Doyle can intercept Isaiah, Lia grows vines from the seeds she threw without anyone noticing, entangling both Doyle and Neil.
"This bas*** has a pretty decent superpower. I actually wouldn't mind having heat vision. Xavier said as he pointed his pitchfork at the two men with 100s of needles pointing at him.
Isaiah and Kat successfully getaway.
————-
Lia's POV
As Isaiah and Kat getaway, both of the men have annoyed looks on their faces.
"It's safe to say that the commander isn't going to be happy that we let those two get past us. Doyle says nonchalantly.
"Let's get this over with; the longer they roam free, the longer he's going to lecture us. Neil says as his eyes start to glow red with heat.
Neil uses his heat vision to vaporize all of the needles and vines, preventing his movement.
"Could you help me buddy-o-pal," Doyle says.
"This is why I don't like working with you. Hurry and get yourself out of there so we can round these teenagers up." Neil says.
Doyle starts to vibrate, and three clones of himself form from his body.
"Xavier, what are you doing? You could totally be impaling these guys right now. You're just going to let them break free ?" Lia says
"Since when were you so talkative?" Xavier says with a confusing look.
"Anyways, I was curious about what abilities they had, weren't you?"
Lia didn't want to admit it, but she did want to know, but she didn't let her face show it.
"Whatever, let's finish these side characters and move on," Lia says.
"Aye, I resent that," Doyle said
Lia moves both her hands, and rock spikes appear under Doyle and his clones. Finally, two of the clones get impaled and turn into a pile of black gew.
"I'll handle the bold guy; you can handle the old one," Lia says
"Got it," Xavier says.
There was a silence among the two men.
"Kkhhmmm HAAA lol. Neil, I told you, you're becoming an old man, see even these kids think so." Doyle says, holding his stomach with laughter.
Neil's eyes start to glow an even brighter red, and he lets out a laser beam wide enough to take up half of the cave.
"I'm only in my early 30s," Neil roars.
Before the Lazer could reach Lia and Xavier, Carly flies in front of them with her right hand and covers them from the blast of the laser.
"Tesseract, convert all plasma energy into source energy," Carly says as the laser beam starts to converge into her hand and disappears.
But when Carly absorbed one of the lasers, it veered and caught Lia in the shoulder.
"Not good. Carly! Lia got hit and looks pretty bad. I should have tried to shield her too, ugh, that was reckless of me." Xavier said.
"It's ok, let me just heal you with a health drone," Carly says, rushing as a small drone forms from her forearm.
"It's too late. I already feel myself changing. Good thing you were nice to me today. Lia says, joking as she passes out.
Carly and Xavier step back.
"I can't believe that little blonde girl just absorbed your attack like that. She's a monster in her own right." Doyle says as he gets up from making his clones.
"Well, kids, this is a good example of how unfair life is." All of the Doyle clones say in unison, leaving an echo throughout the cave.
Before all 20 of them could say anything else
Doyle's clones and Neil see a woman floating to the top of the cave.
Lia was floating on her back. Seconds later, she stood herself upright while still floating in the air. Her skin turned from a chocolate brown to light green. Her hair locs grew longer and turned into dark green vines with the thrones on them.
She opened her eyes, and only a white glow came from them. Lia begins to look at her shoulder and heals herself.
"Who dares harm the Vessel of my host?" Lia says
Without saying any words, Xavier and Carly point to Neil and Doyle.
"Grown men, harming a child. Know your pl-"
"Stop, Monologuing; we don't care that you transformed. Neil says as he blasts the women in the air.
As the laser hits Lia, she puts her hand in front of it. Completely unfazed by its destructive power.
"Oh, a so-called "Elite human" with superpowers. You're an abomination. Completely disrupting the food chain on this planet I nourish. Be gone and become food for the maggots. Lia says with a divine voice as she opens up the earth beneath Neil and Doyle.
As Neil and Doyle fall, you hear the screams go further and further away until it becomes almost a whisper. With the last whisper. "Lia" closes the crater she made, transforms back to her original form, and passes out.
