I have Nine Lives

"I REPEAT, SUBJECT CSP HAS BREACHED CONTAINMENT AND HE HAS ATTAINED IMMUNITY TO OUR PARALYZING TECHNIQUE, CATCH HIM WE NEED TO STUDY SUCH AN IMPORTANT SPECIMEN!"

The man who said that was clutching his severed hand from the floor as he quickly put it back on his stump while infusing it with hex energy, he needed to reattach it quickly he would become hand-less, or Robo-handed.

Felix's silhouette couldn't be seen anywhere as he used his stealth technique to disappear. Everyone was looking around for him like headless flies.

He kept himself in a corner where he sensed the least danger as he thought about what happened up till now... things weren't looking good for him at all.

The power of these people wasn't very high but they had strange technology and their techniques were rather peculiar, even though the guy who wanted to capture him used the same technique as Shima it was considerably weaker in intensity and strength meaning that Shima was a highly ranked combatant of theirs!

He wanted to leave this place but he didn't know where to go, all the corridors looked the same to him and his face was frozen so he could only see one way when he was taken in, he didn't know how to leave!

He looked around and kept himself as hidden as possible, he wanted to capture one of those scientists and make him spill everything out so he could get out of there!

He jumped on the ceiling and made sure he could walk normally then slowly made his way down the corridors trying to identify an easy target that he could hunt and get all of the information he needed.

The scientists were running around everywhere trying to find where he went, even Shima was annoyed as he looked around trying to find him.

It seemed that Felix's stealth was still effective at this level, he sighed as he controlled his breathing and continued to walk on the ceiling.

"What should I do to capture one of them?"

Felix wasn't sure he would be able to lure one of them to him, after all, if he revealed himself that person would surely shout for everyone to swarm him and he wasn't sure these people were interested in anything else besides him at the moment, even leaving clues behind for someone to follow it would surely be reported.

These people had no weaknesses!

He had to strike too fast that they could understand and somehow find an empty abandoned room where he could drag the guy for a dose of interrogation.

He kept himself on the ceiling as he eyed the incoming persons but all of them looked to be with their guards up and none of them were even a tiny bit relaxed.

"This is way harder than I envisioned it..."

Suddenly one of them stopped for a few seconds as he looked around and sniffed the air, then he looked towards the ceiling with a strange look on his face, Felix felt his head spinning, he didn't do anything and he was still found out?

He didn't care anymore, he dropped from the ceiling directly on the guy's head as he unsheathed his claws directly inserting them into his eyes and effectively killing him instantly.

He was rather stressed and the kill was sloppy as blood sprayed on the pristine floor below, he kept his stealth on as he disappeared, if he couldn't get out normally he would create a bloodbath and escape that way!

Felix wasn't a bloodthirsty being by nature, he would only kill when hungry or in self-defense but now his inner beast was awakened, he was pushed to the wall and he needed to escape thus he would clear a bloody path out!

The other scientists were immediately alarmed by the smell of blood and found the body extremely quickly, Shima put his fingers on the wound and smelled the blood for a few seconds before saying:

"He died only a few seconds ago, the cat must still be around here... it seems he had turned violent upon being almost found out by him and he resorted to killing to reduce him to silence... unfortunately we don't all have full combat training so our friend here died."

"This is outrageous, he should offer himself on a silver platter to us for even daring to bother us! How dare he fight back, we basically own him for those 30 days!"

Shima shook his head as he said:

"He is rather stubborn and his shaman didn't know the rules changed, of course, he would fight back in this situation, what would you do if you were him?"

"Well, I..."

"Nevermind that should we send in the army?"

"What army? Have you forgotten they are sent off-world to investigate new resource locations?"

"So we have to deal with him by ourselves?"

"I can deal with him, all you have to do is find him, I didn't know his stealth technique was this advanced when I caught him as I was focused on analyzing his special body... so this could be considered my fault for not gathering enough information, I shall be responsible for this man's family and funeral but for now we need to focus on catching the escaped prisoner."

Felix heard everything that was said as he was one room away from them and since the facility was so big their voices echoed quite easily through the empty corridors. He wondered why didn't they talk mentally like Siracha did or why didn't they at least whisper... could they be making a trap?

Felix was quite intelligent so he realized that Shima was trying to trap him in some way, should he stop killing? But what other way was there to escape? He didn't know the language they were using to write as he already analyzed the words above the rooms and didn't understand jack!

He couldn't capture someone nor could he continue killing as he felt that something might happen... what could he do?

Felix wanted to bang his head on the wall in front of him, he felt extremely frustrated, he didn't want to experience whatever these guys wanted to do him, his instincts told him it wasn't going to be anything good, and he didn't know how to escape either!

Finally, his brows lowered as he made a serious face, it was time to get serious:

"I shall sacrifice a few lives I'm maxed out anyway."

Felix started to move through their base with quick speeds not caring anymore if he was found out or not, whenever he saw one or two scientists who were looking for him he would quickly slit their throats, this way he was immediately found out by Shima.

The man had a dark look on his face as he looked at Felix, he had already identified every corpse and there were around 30! They were around 300 people in the whole facility and Felix killed 10% of them!

"I wanted to give you an easy time when you would be on the direction table but now I guess we won't need any anesthetic!"

"Come and catch me then you annoying fool!"

"Oh, I will!"

Shima appeared in front of Felix as he clutched him by the back of the neck again, his speed and strength were on Siracha's level or maybe even a little bit above, Felix couldn't move again but suddenly his body started to inflate and Shima's eyes widened while saying:

"Self-destruction?"

Felix's body exploded into countless chunks as the explosion engulfed Shima as well, he had come alone as he didn't want anyone else to be hurt or killed by Felix's rampage but the explosion made by Felix's self-destruction rocked the whole base alerting everyone of Felix's actual location.

But when they came to help all they saw was Shima who was drenched in blood and body chunks from head to toe with an annoyed look on his face:

"It seems this guy had all of his lives if he sacrificed one so easily... it seems he is running out of patience."

"Are you okay Shima?

"There is nothing wrong with me but that guy relocated somewhere else when he self-destructed... the ability of God's chosen is really annoying..."

Felix was a few rooms away, he could spawn in different locations if they were not too far from where he last died he had used this ability in some of his previous fights to take his opponents by surprise.

Felix then disappeared as he used his stealth technique again, with a new body that meant full stamina and no injuries!

He started with another hunt, keeping himself to the ceiling and trying to find any other targets but no one moved around anymore!

He frowned as he felt something wasn't right and a voice could be heard coming from behind him:

"It took me a while but I finally learned how you use your stealth technique, now will you come with me already or do you want to lose all your lives?"

Felix looked behind him only to see that dark face again... Shima wasn't happy at all with what he had done.
