The Upraise of a Evolved

I'm walking down an extremely long path in one of the naval bases. "A mission directly from Alex Mercer himself...Must be important to rip me from creating more strands." I look at the blood stains and form the angle of the blood, ‘I think Mercer dropped his shape and began killing using his claws by the splatter of the blood.’

I'm met at the end of the hallway--a ring about 15 feet in diameter with multiple power and data cables running into it and manning one of the consoles was Alex Mercer. He turns to me and stared at me with those blood red eyes. 'I'm in front of the one who created me and gave me immortal life... I'm in front of my god.’ I get down to one knee and bow to him and he laughs.

"Get up kid. I'm not a god, but a visionary...Beside your creativity is what I desire and I'm putting it to the test by sending you out to an unknown place...so prepare for the hostile and or kind environment." He flips a switch and the circle is filled with an image of a town’s edge. I nod to him and before walking through I shift some of my biomass into the form of jeans and a leather hoodie. Alex smirked and nodded, "Nice choice kid, it helps to stay hidden during the first couple days, try to settle down and make sure no one thinks it’s you."

The first thing I notice is the clear air that is radically different than the smell of rotting flesh that seemed to come hand and hand with the NYZ...'It’s pleasant. But first, I need to gain basic knowledge of this strange land.' I look around and walk on a sturdy wooden bridge that lead into the town square. He walked forward into the town and looked in the fountain and placed a finger into it.

"Hello, what are you doing mister?" I quickly turn around to see what is a purple skinned human with a plain regular white shirt and a skirt with stars on them with a  horn on her head.

"Nothing." He pulls his hood over his head so she can't get a good look at him. 'Should I scare her off before I began? Maybe I can seek refuge in that forest.' I nod to myself and that seems to confuse the girl. "Miss what's in that forest over there?" I point a thumb to the forest.

"You mean the Everfree Forest? What do you need from there?" Asks the woman.

"I simply to wish to seek shelter there." Was the reply.

"You can't! There are dangerous animals there that could rip apart people like us!" Shrieks the woman worriedly.

"Dont worry, I can handle anything that gets in my way." I smile at her flashing her my red eyes and hearing her eep as I get up.

"W-what are you, people don't have red eyes." She asks.

"Wow, xenophobic, I just have rare eyes. I wouldn’t like to be hated by the locals." I start to chuckle and wave to her as I walk off. "See you later purple girl!" I start to walk off to the forest whilst humming the Moonlit Sonnet that I learned form a pianist that I consumed before I came here.

I found a clearing not far from the tree line. 'Time to find some biomass to prepare for tomorrow.' My eyes flick to yellow for heat vision and I see a curious shape, 'I'm going to fucking laugh if that is a manticore.' I walk into the forest and see the shapes of three lions with a scorpion tail and leathery wings and they're all sleeping. 'The best idea is decapitation quick and clean.'

I sneak up to the place where the bodies lay and position their necks and will my fingers into a long metal. I stare at my newly formed claws. I plunge them into the ground and dictate the tendrils along the dirt to their necks and forces them to pierce their necks quickly as they spasm on the tendrils. I retract them and glare at the blood on my fingers and as I lick it off my claws it turns to biomass and it enters my reserve. 'Leave nothing when hunting and consume it all.'

Three tendrils emerge from my body and drag the bodies to me as I leave a puddle of blood as a warning to the inhabits.

Twilight Sparkle ran all the way terrified of the stranger she just met, "Spike we need to take a letter and warn the Princesses!"

The sleepy dragon gets up from his basket almost as tall as Twilight entering his teen years, "About what Twilight, and why so late?" He yawns and looks at the terrified girl.

"I-I met someone with blood red eyes and I saw nothing in them but evil. I'm scared Spike. Just met him and I'm already scared of him." Twilight replied.

"Twilight, you’re over reacting and I'm going back to bed, night Twilight." Sighed Spike as he fell back asleep.

She scans the shelf for dangerous creatures in Equestria and finds it, but she has yet to find anything referencing him. "I can’t find anything. Maybe I am just over reacting, maybe he’s just nice and this is just another Zecora incident." She sighs and retires to her bed and tucks herself in.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I lay in the clearing and sigh, "I should've asked her name so I can come up with a alias that fits this area." I laugh and stand up, "I should see if my powers still work here, ‘cause the claws were different than I liked. Maybe I should stop talking to myself out loud too." I laugh and cast my mind to the empty hive-mind and cry a bit. ‘I’m truly alone for the first time since I can remember, now I'm alone...First thing tomorrow: I'll plan how to start my very own hive mind.' I close my eyes and fall asleep.
