Rise looked over to see Alex running for his life. 

Alex: “Guys help! Help!!” 

Behind him were 6 of the silver mannequins right on his trail. 

Rise: “Damn I missed it!” 

Nowell: (I saw it, the mannequins came from the cliff.)

Soldier 15: “Alex, hurry over here we’ll cover you!” 

Alex ran over to the 7 soldiers standing by a large rock next to him.

Soldier 4: “Hurry Alex!”

Alex: “Someone help me!!!”

Soldier 33: “Duck idiot!”

Alex, not knowing a hand was coming his way, quickly jumped to the ground and avoided the attack.

Soldier 24: “Let it rip on em!!”

The soldiers all started firing on the mannequins from all frontal directions.. 

Soldier 38: “Take that, you damn demons!” 

Suddenly one of the mannequins launched its arm, and it hit a soldier nearby on the right of it. 

Soldiers 33: “Keep firing and take cover if they aim for you!” 

The mannequins one at a time launched each of their arms, missing and hitting 2 soldiers while the entire squads filled them with lead, but then as he wasn’t looking an arm headed straight for Rise. 

Rise: “Hmph.” 

Rise dodged the thrust and grabbed it. 

Rise “Trying to take me out we’re ya? It’s probably because you sensed my power right?” 

Rise then crushed the arm. 

Rise: “How but this!” 

Rise had then transferred his aura over to the mannequin. 

Nowell: “No don’t!!” 

Rise: “What?” 

The mannequin then started shaking uncontrollably while the others around it burst. 

Soldier 19: “Hey what’s wrong with that one? It’s shaking uncontrollably!” 

Nowell: “What has he done!”                              

Soldier 2: “Who cares fire at it!” 

Bullets continued to fire at the creature but had no effect, for the mannequin had developed a force field around it. 

Lay: “Moron look what you did!” 

Rise: “It infused itself with my aura to develop its own!” 

Nowell: “This guy didn’t realize angels along with the goddess are the source of Forcer, their beings that can harness it!”

Rise: (Shit, I gotta take it out!) 

Soldier 38: “Hey everyone, look it’s transforming!” 

Ryan: “Is it?!” 

The mannequin started growing long nails, a mouth with sharp teeth and wings. 

Mannequin evolved: “[Roooaaaarrrr]!”  

Ryan: “Good God!” 

The creature flew up in the air and analyzed each of the people present. 

Soldier 53: “It can fly now?!” 

Soldier 42: “Yeah, but what’s it doing?” 

Soldier 2: “Should we fire?” 

Nowell: “No don’t! your weapons won’t have an effect on it any longer!” 

Soldier 2: “Say what?” 

Soldier 38: “Don’t listen to that kid, come on Charlie [24], Ringo [27] , Chase [31] Kess [56], I’ve got an idea!” 

Kess: “An idea?” 

Ricardo: “Get your goggles and smoke grenades ready!” 

Ryan: “Hey! You 5 where are you going?!” 

Ricardo: “Don’t worry boss, we got this!” 

Ryan: “Those fools!” 

Charles: “My, my.” 

Ricardo: “Try this on for size!” The men tossed the smoke grenades near them, put on their goggles, and started firing at the mannequin from within the smoke. 

Soldier 4: “What are those guys doing?” 

Ricardo: “Hehehe he can’t hit what he can’t see. Am I right, boys?” 

4 idiots: “Yeah!” 

The 4 screamed meanwhile the creature was still analyzing the men, not noticing or even realizing it was being shot at, then suddenly it saw Rise. 

Rise: (!!!! It’s looking right at me.) 

The creature then charged forward at him. 

Rise: “Crap! One of you throw me a gun!” 

Soldier 15: “You need a gun?” 

Rise: “Yes hurry fool!” 

The man threw a pistol while Rise caught it and shot the creature right wing with an aura infused gun and bullet penetrating the creature’s force field. 

Nowell: (Make sense, it’s so he can fend off against that thing while keeping me and Lay chained up.) 

The monster then quickly extended its arm. 

Rise: “Darn it!” 

Rise quickly dodged it while the transformed mannequin launched its extended foot at him. 

Rise: (Crap I’m in a tough situation, if that thing pierces me it will absorb my blood, nutrients not to mention aura, I have to fully defend myself but if I let go of the chain those two kids will break free!) 

Rise dodged the transformed mannequin’s attack, but the impact of the attack had dirt explode in front of him nearly blinding his vision. 

Rise: (Can’t see!) 

Rise then in a split second moment saw the creature head charge at him, with only a second to react and defend Rise subconsciously released the chain and punched the creature in the face. 

Rise: (!!!!)  

Meanwhile, Lay and Nowell used a great deal of aura and broke the cuffs, freeing themselves. 

Nowell: (we’re free!) 

The two blazed off while the mannequin was launched back up in the air. 

Ryan: “Rise there free!” 

Rise: “Those annoying kids!” 

Ryan: “Stop them!” 

Suddenly, the mannequin charged at Lay and Nowell. 

Soldier 4: “It’s going after those two!” 

Rise: “Runts behind you!” 

Nowell: “Huh?” 

Nowell looked back to see that the winged demon was behind them. 

Nowell: “Lay behind!” 

Lay and Nowell: (!!!!)
