Episode 5 — The Transformation (Part 3)

Agira’s eyes snapped open.

BZZZHHHMMM—

Two thin beams of red light tore across the room.

Sharp.

Instant.

Uncontrolled.

He staggered back.

Another burst—

closer.

Stronger.

He forced himself to focus.

Breathing.

Control.

The beams flickered—

then stopped.

Silence.

Agira looked up slowly.

The walls—

untouched.

But across the room—

Every target he’d set—

was burned dead center.

Perfect.

He exhaled.

Slow.

Careful.

That wasn’t healing.

That was something else.

Something alive.

His muscles twitched under his skin, nerves firing like sparks. Every part of him felt ready to move—

and completely unstable.

Far away—

Vikrant was already moving.

Reports. Leads. Dead ends.

He would find Agira.

No matter how long it took.

Because whatever had been stolen—

was never meant to leave that lab.

And now—

it had a host.
