Kiasii awakes inside the purple sphere creature. Goo drips from the ceiling and she is surrounded by purple walls. Kiasii stands up and checks her systems. Kiasii attempts to call Sid from inside this creation but something is jamming the signal. Kiasii tries to call Giz to see if the samples arrived and that fails as well. Kiasii pulls out her BaW sword and slices the purple walls. The hive shivers and re-grows anything that is cut off. Kiasii powers up and keeps slashing but it soon turns into a waste of energy. Kiasii stops and looks around, some of the walls open up in the opposite direction.
“Looks like I can’t get out.” Kiasii sighs and hopes that a Reaper will eventually get to her location. Kiasii attempts to throw an emergency capsule that has a stored exit portal in it. The portal attempts to create and then disappears.
“There is no escape from the hive. Come closer.” Hive mother whispers in Kiasii’s mind.
“What are you?” KIasii shouts but nothing responds.
Kiasii gets ready with her sword and then decides to walk further into the hive. Kiasii travels along a dark and narrow pathway. The ceiling drip with a gooey substance that burns when it falls, similar to an acid. A screech happens from further inside and Kaisii enters a room full of eggs. The eggs are glowing and attached to the walls in this room. Kiasii runs towards them and then slashes a group of them to pieces. Another screech happens, and arachnids start to emerge from the eggs rapidly. Kiasii dashes forward and swings her massive BaW sword in an arch. One of the arachnids lunges forward and she pushes it backward with the hilt of her blade, then slams downwards creating a shockwave. She finishes off the rest of the group, then pushes forward.
“I will corrupt your mind.” The hive mother says.
“No, you will not, and where are you?” Kaisii shouts back.
“In the darkness of your heart.” The hive mother replies.
Kiasii hears these messages in the distance and echoing in her mind. Kiasii starts walking forward down a dark tunnel, the walls pulsate around her. Everything around her is alive but dark and gloomy. Theirs an omen in the stale air. Kiasii tries calling Sid once more but still no connection. The further in she gets the more her systems start to scramble. Kiasii powers up and then dashes forward down a dark path. She hears creatures around her but can’t see them. She cuts through some eggs that she spots in the area and then hurries forward.
The room starts to drip green slime all around the area in massive globs. Kiasii looks around for an opening to the next room but it's hard to see in the darkness. Only the lights off her body light the dim surrounding. Kiasii walks close to a purple wall and puts her hand on it. She feels around but can’t find an entrance.
“Enter my lair. Welcome to the depths of the hive.” The hive mouth says.
“Come fight me and where are my friends?” Kiasii says.
Kiasii starts to hack and slash at the purple wall in a fit of anger. Suddenly the ground shakes once more, and goo falls all around her. A shriek happens in the distance and the purple wall starts to open. The opening instantly starts to suck in air, Kiasii stands still and braces herself for a bit. Finally, it sucks her in and Kiasii enters the main lair. Kiasii looks around in this new room. In the center of the room, is a large glowing purple sphere. It is pulsating like a beating heart. The thing is collecting energy from the whole hive and redistributing it to the entire hive. Below the giant ball are Maka and Cin. They are both unconscious and encased in tentacles. There is a glowing purple attachment on their heads, it is slowly draining the energy from them and feeding it to the core above them.
“Oh God, no,” Kiasii says and then starts to glow with energy.
“Welcome to my den. I will also have your energy soon.” The hive queen says.
“Where and what are you?” Kiasii shouts.
“Some call me the hive mother and others call me the hive queen. I’m a new breed of intelligence, that will change this planet.” The hive mother says.
Kiasii strikes downwards with the BaW sword and which creates shockwaves. She aims them at the glowing core. The shockwaves hit the core but do no damage. The room starts to shake and thousands of arachnids pour out into the main lair. Kiasii takes a capsule of Maka’s energy and slices through groups of them. Kiasii dashes forward cutting through the limbs and fangs of the creatures. Her emotions get the better of her as she fights with anger in her soul. After thirty minutes of fighting, it seems like there is no end to the number of arachnids that appear. Kiasii is low from energy from fighting all day.
A creature similar to a spider crawls above Kiasii. It has the body of a spider and the face of an evil woman. It crawls to the core while Kiasii is fighting. It touches the core and starts to absorb its power. Suddenly the arachnids stop flooding into the Liar.
“I am ready, behold my true power.” The hive queen says.
The hive queen jumps with her spider body and lands on the ground in front of the core. Kiasii stares at her and starts glowing.
“You will die today by my sword,” Kiasii screams.
Kiasii enters overdrive and dashes toward the hive queen. Kiasii swings with a flurry of blows but each time the queen blocks them. Kiasii and the queen each take turns weaving and attacking each other around the liar. The spider queen starts to spit acid at her, but Kiasii swiftly dodges that as well. The battle rages and the room gets darker. The spider queen unleashes a wave of giant spiders which Kiasii cuts to pieces. They keep coming in a swarm and then the queen approaches from behind her, she slashes with her claws. This impact causes Kiasii to get knocked back into a wall. Kiasii powers up once more and dashes toward her. Kiasii cuts through several giant spiders on the way. Kiasii swings with all of her energy in a downward motion. Kiasii ends up cutting off one of the legs of the spider queen. A green goo comes gushing out of the queen but then her leg quickly regrows. The hive queen quickly retreats to the core. Kiasii starts to power up but is low on energy.
“Haha, are creatures on this planet this weak?” The hive queen says.
“Once I free Maka and Cin, you’ll feel all of the pain you put this planet through,” Kiasii screams.
“No playtime is over. Let me show you my true power.” The hive queen says.
Tentacles attach from the core to the hive queen’s head. You see pulses in the tentacles as they pour energy into the hive mother. The hive queen starts to grow and evolve. She becomes larger with mutations all around her body. The hive queen motions with her claws and a shockwave of energy hits Kiasii’s body.
“Systems disabled. Attempting to repair.” Tada says.
“Shit, not now,” Kiasii says.
“Systems offline, cybernetic enhancements are off. Entering manual mode.” Tada says.
The spider queen's head starts glowing as she uses some new type of psychic power. Her new body radiates energy, she screams a sonic blast. The shockwaves come from her mouth as she screeches, they shoot towards Kiasii and fully knock out all cybernetic systems in the area. The spider queen motions with a finger and the BaW sword goes flying backward, it was knocked away by the psychic energy. The BaW sword gets stuck on the purple walls and tentacles wrap around it. The spider queen motions with her claws and Kiasii gets thrown back to the ground.
Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.
Kiasii struggles to get up but some unknown force is holding her down. A dark energy encircles the air and Kiasii has no power against it. Kiasii keeps struggling and attempts to power up but the second she starts glowing her energy fizzles out.
“I’ve seen others like you before, they all die at my hands. I’ve been to many planets in search of energy and finally found what I was looking for.” The hive queen says.
“So you destroy each planet you land on and steal their energy?” Kiasii asks.
“I evolve the planet and make it stronger. I change it to something better. The normal creatures living here also consume the planet's energy.” The hive mother states.
“But you’ve killed thousands. Why was it necessary to slaughter the people of this planet.” Kiasii shouts out.
“I was looking for this rodent here. Even your race on this planet was too stupid to understand the power this creature has. This other man, what was his name? Cin, correct? This man has extraordinary power as well. Some could say the two here could power up planets.” The hive mother touches both Cin and Maka draining their energy.
“Don’t touch them. I’ll kill you.” Kiasii powers up in a fit of rage, but then her energy fizzles. The hive mother shoots out a sonic blast from her mouth and it holds Kiasii down on the ground again.
“I’ll give you an option. Of these two creatures who do you like more?” The hive mother asks.
“What? I love them both equally. Don’t touch them, or I will hurt you.” Kiasii screams with rage.
“Interesting but you can’t even stand up” The spider queen laughs.
“I’ll find a way out of this.” Kiasii looks worried but keeps looking for an opportunity to break free.
“I’ll give you five minutes to decide who dies and who lives. You get to decide who I should kill. Either I kill Maka or Cin. One lives and one dies.” The hive mother says as she steals energy from the core.
Both Maka and Cin start to glow with evil energy as the core starts sucking their energy from them.
“I can’t decide between the two. My only option is to break free and save them both. I will kill you. Please don’t hurt them.” Kiasii starts to scream out and cry.
After five minutes of Kiasii struggling to break free from the sonic wave energy that is pinning her down, the hive mother starts to grin.
“Time is up. Since you can’t decide who will live, then I’ll decide for you. The first creature that dies is Maka. I want to feast on his energy. He will give his life so that I feel true power.” The hive queen says.
The purple core in the middle starts to pulse and beats heavily like a heartbeat. Maka's body starts to glow with energy and then gets dimmer as the tentacle attachment to his head steals his energy. The core starts to beat rapidly as it steals all of Maka’s energy. Maka's eyes open and then close one final time as he dies. Maka’s death creates an explosion unlike anything ever seen before. A trail of light escapes Maka's body, it flies around and enters the core. The core starts beating out of rhythm and gushes out green blood.
“NO, MAKA.” Kiasii cries.
“His energy is unlike anything I’ve ever seen before.” The hive queen says.
The room starts to rumble, almost like something is attacking the hive from outside. It also shakes from the core processing Maka’s energy. Kiasii starts to scream from emotion in a fit of rage after seeing Maka’s death.
“Now for the next one.” The hive mind says.
Cin starts to struggle and glow as the tentacle attachment to his head sucks out his remaining energy. Kiasii looks in complete horror thinking she will lose him too.
An explosion happens in the core and light starts to appear from holes all around it. The entire hive starts to violently shake and green goo starts to fall rapidly from the ceiling. A large beam of light escapes from the core and hits Kiasii with a surge of energy. This light restarts her systems and Kiasii breaks free from the psychic power that is holding her down.
“Payback time,” Kiasii screams in a fit of rage and enters super overdrive mode. Her entire body radiates with energy. Something about that beam of light has given her a new undiscovered power. She shoots a shockwave from her hands at the tentacles on the wall holding the BaW sword. She quickly retrieves the sword and strikes with a full downward swing. An energy blast releases from the sword and cuts off the tentacle attachment from Cin’s head. The core starts to violently shake once more as if it's fighting the newly acquired energy.
“No, the hive cannot be killed. You will die.” The hive mother hisses.
Kiasii’s eyes start to glow and she flies to the hive mother. Kiasii slashes multiple times with her sword and cuts off multiple limbs from the hive queen. Kiasii screams in a fit of rage remembering all the memories she spent with Maka. The hive queen shrieks in pain. Kiasii powers up once more, entering her strongest overdrive mode. Then hacks and slashes the hive queen repeatedly. Kiasii lands one final blow on the spider queen’s head cutting it clean off. The head and body land on the floor with a thud.
The core starts to pulsate violently and holes open up pouring light out. Kiasii dashes to the core and starts to slice through it with overdrive sword swings. Green liquid starts pouring out of it as Kiasii’s strength is finally powerful enough to cut it. Kiasii takes out all of her rage and anger on the core. All of her emotions fuel her new energy. The core explodes and knocks Kaisii backward into the ground. Kiasii runs out of power completely and faints. The creatures' minds start to explode in the hive as the core slowly dies. The hive starts to rumble and shake. The tentacles around Cin start to shrive away.
Cin wakes up and looks at his surrounding. The core is about to explode one more time and this time for good. Cin spots Kiasii on the floor, completely knocked out with the BaW sword beside her. Cin uses what little energy he has left to dash toward her. Cin throws a capsule to store her BaW sword and the capsule stores it. Cin picks up her body and explodes with energy one final time. Cin flies through narrow pathways as the whole hive collapses around him. Creatures are exploding all around him and the hive is breaking down. The core shakes one last time and explodes, Cin quickly shoots forward like a meteor, crushing everything in his path. Cin rips through multiple hive walls and eventually makes it to the outside. Cin breathes in the city's natural air and looks up at the sky. The sun is setting and the whole hive starts to rumble once more.
The core bursts and then explodes inside the hive one final time. This sets off a chain reaction that causes the entire hive to explode. Pieces of purple hive parts go flying in all directions and a massive chain energy wave pours out near the crash site. Cin grips Kiasii’s body tightly in the air and checks his energy. Cin has two percent systems energy left. Cin channels his energy and shoots forward in the air toward Lower Boe.
