Tamim used his X-ray vision to confirm Faria's observation. "I see," he said.
However, when Tamim tried to use his teleportation power to extract the brain-like object, he found it was resistant to his abilities.
"It seems our powers won't work on this monster," Tamim concluded.
Faria, contemplating the situation, realized, "If I can fly or run fast enough to retrieve the brain, there might be a chance. But I must be cautious. If I get trapped inside, my portal ability won't help me escape."
Just then, another missile launched unexpectedly.
"What the? I didn't fire that!" the startled army soldier exclaimed.
"I told you not to press the trigger twice, idiot," another soldier chided.
The missile hurtled towards Tamim at full speed. With quick reflexes, Tamim teleported in front of it and punched, causing it to explode. Surprisingly, Tamim and his clothes were unscathed by the blast.
Tamim looked at his outfit with surprise. "Yeah, just as I thought."
The monster's tentacles then snatched Tamim, but he swiftly teleported to safety.
Looking around, Tamim realized Faria was nowhere in sight. "Where did she go?" he wondered.
Suddenly, Tamim sensed something approaching from the air. He turned back to see Faria flying at an incredible speed.
"What is she trying to do?" Tamim thought, observing Faria's daring approach.
Faria crashed into the entity, and the black matter began to trap her inside the monster's body. Determined, Faria located a brain-like structure within the monster.
She grabbed it, but the resisting veins that covered the brain-like object tried to pull it back into place. The pressure from the black matter intensified, crushing Faria's body from all sides.
Struggling, Faria managed to rip the brain-like material out. The monster glitched, and its immense force crushed Faria further.
"Ah! It's too much pressure. I can't take it," Faria thought, feeling weak from the strain.
Summoning her strength, Faria flung the brain-like object outside the monster's body. Tamim, witnessing this, caught it.
"What's this?" Tamim wondered.
The brain-like object suddenly sprouted legs, slipped out of Tamim's grasp, and began running around.
"What the hell?" Tamim thought, teleporting in front of it to catch it, but it evaded him with its incredible speed.
Tamim struggled to keep up with the object's movements. "What am I supposed to do with this?" he pondered.
Looking at the monster that had consumed Faria, Tamim concluded, "I think this is part of the monster. I have to destroy it."
Using his X-ray vision to predict its movements,after a few failed attempts Tamim swiftly closed in, applying pressure to the object until it disintegrated. With its destruction, the monster's body exploded.
Faria emerged from the wreckage, falling to the ground.
Tamim rushed over to her. "Are you okay?"
Without answering, Faria created a portal beneath them and teleported them to the top of the mountain.
Witnessing the sudden teleportation, Tamim wore an annoyed expression and said, " Why do you always do that without asking me?..."
Suddenly, something fell from the sky behind Tamim at a distance.
Faria looked interjected, "Is that Fahim?"
Tamim turned and saw Fahim's body on the ground in the distance.
As Faria approached, she remarked, "He fell from the sky. What's he doing here?"
Fahim slowly opened his eyes, sat up, and greeted them, "Hi, guys. It was a bad landing, I guess."
"What?" Tamim exclaimed.
"It's a long story," Fahim replied with a sigh.
"We need to go, or else we'll be in trouble," Faria urged.
"What about the smell you mentioned earlier?" Tamim asked.
"It's gone after the creature exploded," Faria explained, conjuring a portal.
Tamim and Fahim were instantly teleported to an empty road.

Scene shifts -
In the shadows of trees, five indistinct figures were gathered, looking out toward Dakka 2 city.
"Oh wow, humanity has evolved a lot," remarked a male voice.
"Obviously, we're seeing Earth after a Deca Millennium," another male voice chimed in.
"So what's the plan? Are we just going to stand here and do nothing?" a female voice interjected.
"First, we need to understand how humans in this age operate, then we can take action," another male voice responded.

Meanwhile, at the rescue helicopter, which had landed in a large hospital field, panic and distress were palpable among the people.
Faisal was on a call amidst the chaos. The caller was a soldier stationed in the destroyed city.
Army: "Sir, it looks really bad. The entire place is like an empty plain."
Faisal: "Did you spot any survivors?"
Army: "Unfortunately not, no signs of life at all. It's all dust."
Faisal: "Any other information?"
Army: "Well, sir, a huge 8-foot monster suddenly appeared. It injured one of our soldiers, but then two individuals resembling humans arrived and defeated it."
Faisal: "Human-like? What do you mean?"
Army: "They looked human but were covered in costumes. They seemed like soul sorcerers, but their attire and concealed faces suggest otherwise."
Faisal: "Anything else?"
Army: "Not at the moment. I'll keep you posted if anything else happens."
Faisal ended the call and turned around to find Faria, now dressed in normal attire.
