"Where... *cough, cough...* Are we...?" asked Billy.

Prometheus walks out of the jeep. "Chill out, kid. Daddy's gotchu... I mean, I ain't your daddy, but, I sure as hell am... something, I guess... But you are Caucasian. People around these parts don't take too kindly to the white men. No offense, kid."

Billy's eyes widen, "'White men?'"

"Your skin... lighter than others... It may be considered strange by the people 'round here..." said Death Leopard.

The group entered a strange eerily silent village not too far from the coast of Bataan, known as the Houses of Acruzo, which was once a beach resort made from the historical houses of Spanish-time Philippines.

Prometheus sniffs some Splooge and shrivels up. "FUCK, that was GUH!!! B-B-B-BIBINGKA, BITCH!!!"

"A little too uppity for someone who cost us infinite fortune and salvation," said Death Leopard.

"A little too go fuck yourself, he's a child, asshole."

"Look. Just saying, that kid's blood could save infinite worlds."

"Which is just A SMALL PORTION of the Multiverse! Isn't that right, Beatle?"

"Fuck off, Prometheus."

"What's his problem?" asked Black Sabbath.

"Failed Messiahs like Proldilocks over here have to search for and rear variants of Miguel Azral, himself that are both an Aswang and a Diwata, to help power the Multiverse and keep the world alive. He decided not to kill the baby because he got sentimental," said Beatle.

"Can we please just not fight in this town?" asked Black Sabbath. "I hate this place. The people here are... strange..."

The people could be seen singing, chanting, and dancing while they bathed in the ashes of the bodies of their enemies.

Billy gags a bit while Beatle covers her eyes.

Beatle sniffs some of the Splooge as well as it regenerates. "The problem with Splooge is that as much as it's able to regenerate quickly... It only has a limit of powering one Earth."

"How... does it work?"

Death Leopard sighs. "Mutt's blood... the organic fluid of Aswang Demigods is amplified by the Truffle, which gives like a hyperbolic chamber effect."

Billy opens her mouth.

"And you're about to ask HOW IT WORKS, so... It's like this. Aswang blood is magical. When it touches the truffle, it amplifies. With THAT kid's blood however... Enough of it could create a whole whirlwind of utopias."

"I think you're forgetting that I'm beyond whirlwinds..." said Prometheus. "Don't forget this, Kitty. Whirlwinds could either mean spiritual growth or God's fury. Then again, you're just a mind-numbing know-it-all atheist."

"Fuck off, God's kissass teacher's pet," said Death Leopard.

"Bitch, I failed this semester. He's the kissass," Prometheus points to Beatle.

"Both of you fuck off. The people are staring."

"Hoy! Mga Inglisero mga ito o, putang ina!" laughed one man who points at Billy specifically.

"Hoy. Pakyu!" smiled Billy, as Beatle covered her mouth.

"You said that's a greeting," Billy spoke in a muffled voice.

"Yeah. Because I'm an asshole," said Beatle.

One guard screams as he limps toward Beatle like a zombie, proceeding to mumble and speak gibberish, terrifying Billy. He dances around like a wild animal, sniffing his armpits, flicking his tongue, and flicking his fingers out and in like a flexing animal.

Beatle sighs as he proceeds to take out his eskrima stick and proceeds to make a crucifix.

The guard nods and walks away.

"I'm sorry. What is this place and why did that strange man just-?" asked Billy, as the people just stared at Billy.

"Buti may..." said the man. "Buti may kaibigan kang mga Kruz."

"What?" asked Billy.

"He's saying you should be glad that we're your friends," said Death Leopard.

"Why?" asked Billy.

"It's because you're white," said Gabrielle.

"What? What's wrong with my skin?"

"Um... You guys kinda... caused... this whole war... least your race... that kinda... ruined everyone's lives..." said Prometheus, as Beatle punches him in the shoulder. "Kid's gotta know some point, right?"

"You're just trying to plant seeds of doubt to get BACK at me for the previous fights, fucker," said Beatle.

"WHAT!?!?!? Nuuuu..." said Prometheus. "Anyway, has Beatle ever told you how your piece of shit white-ass people... along with their... colored lackeys... controlled our nation for years back in the day? How they've controlled our politics, propaganda, news, society, and other things etc. etc.? And every time a leader tries to separate themself from yours, they get... well... Hm... Let's just say they fall into corruption. Because that's how your nation designed ours right?"

"America is a place of freedom...! Of kindness and love! Of liberty and living the American dream!"

"Capitalism!"

"Which is a good thing!"

"Prometheus..." said Beatle.

Prometheus stops walking, and slowly turn, kneeling before Billy. "Lemme tell you something, kid... I may rule the United States... But I HATE the United States... I turned it into a utopia... I make howls out of puppy-pup barks... I wanted to show the world what it could be, and guess what? They liked it. They ate it right up. I just laugh at how stupid they are... Y'know why?"

"Why, sir?" asked Billy.

"Because without us, the United States would be nothing."

"'Us?'"

"Weaker countries. Third-worlds like the Philippines was. Now, it's the other way around. The Philippines in this Multiverse rules with an ironfist over America... Some people think I'm a pinko... I'm a liberal who kisses America's ass, but in reality, the one who sits in that star-spangled ass-seat of a throne is me. And Beatle... thinks I'm full of shit for it. Because he's jealous."

Beatle sighs. "How much more carnage... to prove you matter?"

Prometheus punches Beatle as Beatle just stares at him.

"GUYS!!!" yelled Black Sabbath, as the villagers take out their guns. "These people sense weakness..."

The strange people just stare profoundly deep into their eyes as they whisper and mumble to each other.

Beatle looks around and wearily speaks up, "Guys. Chill. We don't wish to harm you. Understand? But do remember this, you are not Humans. Not anymore. You are Nephilimic critters who have swallowed the truffles of the gods... Attack us, and we won't hesitate to kill."

Suddenly, the people went to silence from Beatle's booming voice. They bow in fear and terror.

"Good." The cartoony eyes in his goggles squinted. "Crusaders. Forward."

They continued going forward, eventually reaching a rustic old cabin next to a radio tower that looked to have been handmade, having been detached from its original place and stuck to the grounds of this unholy area.

"We need your radio," said Beatle.

"Tagalog," smirked the man.

Beatle sighs. "I'd rather speak in a language of the little one."

"Ta... Ga... Log..." Growled the man.

"Kailangan namin po ang inyong radyo para makausap ang aming mga sundalo," Beatle spoke respectfully, but with a slightly aggressive tone.

"Salamat," said the man, as he types into the device. "Putang-inang mga Kruz."

"Magkano po?" Beatle spoke in a respectful tone.

"Singkwentang kabibi." The man spoke smugly.

Beatle's eye twitches. "Puwede ko pong bayaran kayo ng bale... Mais."

"Mais?" Asked the man. "Anong magagamit ko sa Mais?"

"Pagkain sya galing sa America. NAPAKASARAP po sya," smiled Green Day, interjecting himself into the conversation.

"Talaga?"

"Opo! Ang sarap nya po! Mawawala ang inyong-..." Green Day looks closely at the man and sees he's bald. "Cancer."

Beatle facepalms and jabs Green Day's shoulder.

"Wow... Himala talaga ito! Parano po 'yon?"

Green Day smiles. The vial of strangely-colored Splooge he takes out from his pocket was then sprayed all over the corn.

"Green Day. I promised the man corn. We can't just-!"

"SHH!!! VOILA, MISTER!!! The CORN!!!"

Beatle tries grabbing it but his guards point guns at him. "Manong. WAG nyo po kainin-..."

The man smiles and eats it.

Beatle grabs the corn away. "NO!!!"

Prometheus and the others cringe as he begins regenerating, beginning to grow hair. "Salamat po!"

The Man smiles. "Salamat po-... Tch-..." The man begins to painfully grow an ear on his head, and eyes, and various other sensorial body parts. "KULAM!?"

"What... Did you just give him, Uncle Green Day?"

"The Splooge I MADE!!!" Smiled GReen Day.

"THAT SHIT DOESN'T MAKE PEOPLE INTO MUTANTS!!! THAT STUFF AIN'T BALANCED!!! There should be an EQUAL AMOUNT OF BLOOD and AN EQUAL AMOUNT OF MAGIC SPACE FUNGI!!!" yelled Prometheus.

"OH. Oops," said Green Day.

The man transforms into a disgusting freak full of ears and eyes, mutating further than how he already was mutated.

The group backs away as one woman points at them and shrieks.

Beatle takes out his Cain Marker and points it at them. "Crusaders! FALL BACK!!!"

Everyone chases after the Crusaders who run back to the jeep, only for Billy to get shot.

Billy begins hearing their voices. "AHHHH!!!" He yelled in pain.

Beatle grabs BIlly. "BILLY!!!"

"I can... I CAN HEAR THEIR THOUGHTS!!!" Yelled BIlly. "They're terrible! HORRIBLE!!! Sexual! DISGUSTING!!!"

Death Leopard shoots at them over and over, killing man as blue blood painted the snow.

Sabbath grows her wings and cuts many to pieces.

Panthera crushed them down, breaking their faces and tearing them to pieces.

Green Day turns his feet into springs and jumps away to keep the Gabrielle safe.

Gabrielle screams. "BILLY!!!"

"Ugh!" Yelled BIlly, beginning to grow fangs and claws. She hisses like an animal and her skin begins to burn under the sun.

Beatle's eyes widen and he covers her with his cloak. "GET THE JEEP READY!!!" He barked at Green Day, who nodded immediately and got into the jeep with a single leap.

He activates the engine and charges toward the villagers, killing many of them.

Billy is horrified as the others fend for their lives. "Why... Why are we killing these poor villagers?"

"GREEN DAY!!! HAUL US INTO THE JEEP!!!" yelled Beatle, as Green Day does so one by one, with Beatle and Billy being the very last. But, while Green Day was still hauling them in, Beatle sees Billy crying, and hugs her. "Billy... It's okay... Easy, there."

"We're... no different than the Zodiacs who killed my-..."

"No... These people are a faction who have no use for us any longer, thus, they wanted to kill us. Our agenda is to protect Humanity."

"And... aren't they Humans...? Aren't we? Am I not? What are we? Judge, jury, and exceutioners? Or are we just another faction just like Morningstar's? Because... so far... we're just a bunch of morally-corrypt tribes fighting each other over control of territory and survival... Betraying each other when it conveniences our agenda..."

Beatle sighs. "Welcome to the Philippines, kid." He spoke, saddened, horrifying, and saddening Billy as well.

"Are there no good guys?" asked Billy.

"We are. This just isn't one of those times."

"Will we kill the children as well?"

Beatle sighs. "No."

"They'll try to kill us later when they grow older."

"Yes."

Billy's lips quiver. "What... What have you done over the years?"

"I've done many things. I was many things. But all I can do-..." Beatle shoots a woman who was carrying in the face who was about to decapitate Billy form behind. "-...is try my best to keep this nation together. But, this nation rejected me years ago. My nation no longer accepts what I am. What I was. Swayed by the Devil."

"Are you really the Messiah?"

"Yes."

"But..."

"I am not my predecessor. He was a savior. I am a warrior. You do NOT have to do what we do. Just stay out of our way and stay safe."

Death Leopard points the gun at Billy's head.

"B-B-B-Beatle?" asked Billy.

"Tyrone... I will kill you if you-..." said Beatle, only for Death Leopad to sigh.

"Easy... Just asserting dominance," said Death Leopard.

Then, a shot was fired and Billy was shot in the back of her head.

Beatle draws his gun and shoots at Death Leopard in the face but Death Leopard barely blocks it, and he backflips.

Billy... didn't die.

"I knew it," said Death Leopard, as Billy immediately regenerates.

"I didn't sense you..." said Beatle.

"Because your God Sense knew that she wouldn't die," said Death Leopard.

"Oh my God..." said Beatle.

"She needs to drink," said Death Leopard. "Here..." Death Leopard gives her the dead body of a man they've killed. "Drink, child."

Billy is horrified as she sees the children being rallied into a small cabin, whimpering and crying as Sabbath gives them supplies to survive.

"They have a farm," said Prometheus.

"And this is why your Anne left you," said Black Sabbath as Prometheus scoffs and walks away.

Billy stares at the body on the ground.

"Drink," said Death Leopard.

Billy sobs as she bites the man's neck and drinks his blood...
