Miguel struggles to break free, growling and seeing Anna, before crying and yelling in pain.
He begins to tear his body in half, growing tentacles from his stubs that tears the ropes away.
Miguel slithers out and tosses his stick into the guard’s face, knocking him out, recombining his body, and dodges another shot by somersaulting and kicking the guard unconscious.
Miguel began to burst flames from his eyes.
“Miguel…” Anna gasped.
Miguel’s eyes widened. He turns to her, now with a softened look and smile of relief. He hugs her. “Are you okay?”
“Yeah… I’m… better, actually…” She sniffs the air. “Miguel. They heard you.”
Miguel teleports around and dodges the bullets, knocking out all of the armed men who tried to kill him and Anna.
Anna gets shot, so she punches one soldier by moving so heavily and quickly that a shockwave occurs that shatters the man’s jaw.
Miguel’s eyes widen as he immediately cuts his palm with his claw to allow his blood to drip down on the broken jaw and heal the man, before punching a controlled strike to knock him out.
Anna’s eyes widen. “What’s happening to me?” She asked, horrified, seeing the blood on her hands and stumbling backwards. “Miguel? What’s happening?”
“So, apparently, the Splooge overdose didn’t kill you. Working theory? You’re an undiagnosed Neurodivergent… And you have powers now, yay!“
“WHAT!?!?” asked Anna.
More soldiers. Miguel jumped up and uses his eskrima sticks to beat them all down.
Anna joins in, even punching other soldiers down with her fists.
The ants can be seen moving erratically, turning all their heads toward her.

Anna growls and breaks one soldier’s knee backwards. “I AM SO, SO SORRY!!!”
Miguel roars. “Just shut up and fight!” Miguel grabs anotther by the neck with his leg and spins him down, knocking him out.
Miguel beats the last one over and over, brutally allowing his fists to bleed, screaming angrily and wildly.
Before one last punch, she catches his wrist. He tears up as his eyes lay upon hers, and he cries and hugs her tightly.
And he does the unthinkable…
He kisses her.
Anna blushes and pulls away, punching him.
“Sorry! I was… I was!!!” yelled Miguel, covering his mouth.
She turned very, very red, and covered her mouth as well. Her eyes looked away from his. “Let’s just get outta here…”
Miguel nods. ”S-Sure…”
Miguel and Anna grab a black and red ski masks respectively from the unconscious guards.
Suddenly, Undying enters the scene.
Undying’s eyes widen. He creates another icicle and tosses it at Anna, but Anna catches it.
She walks forward and proceeds to kick Undying into the walls, knocking him out with a single strong kick.
Miguel looks baffled and astonished, his breath taken away by he graceful movements. “Whoa…”
More soldiers walk in and she smiles.
“Activate livestreaming mode,” she smirked, as the camera began streaming their fight together. “HELLO, EVERYONE!!! MYRMEX HERE!!! NARCISO ATTEMPTED TO MURDER ME BY TOSSING SOME SPLOOGE OVER ME AND INTO SOME ANTS!!! THINKING I WAS NEUROTYPICAL AS HE HIMSELF STATED…“ She plays a recording of his voice stating, “Ever realize what happens to a Neurotypical in contact WITH TOO MUCH SPLOOGE!?!?” She continued on. ”THUS VIOLATING ARTICLE 248 OF THE REVISED PENAL CODE!!!”
The pair brutally beats down the soldiers one by one while also pulling their punches.
They knock teeth in, hammer their skulls, break bones, dislocate joints, and shatter their will just to get to Narciso.
Miguel smiles as he enters an unwinding staircase to the surface. Miguel charged and began smacking the soldiers with his eskrima stick, with her crawling up from his back and punching the next soldiers with a single swing that struck all their faces. Anna then sticks to the wall and tries to pull her palm out before instinctively dodging all of the strikes of the next soldier, before ripping the wall apart and knocking him out with the torn piece.
Miguel had already teleported to the highest area. “COME ON!!!” he yelled, as he was shot in the back from behind. He smiles and shatters the lights above them as he beats them all to the steps of the staircase, and Myrmex followed Miguel’s smell…
Miguel and Anna smile, reaching the top of the basement, seeing an empty warehouse.
“Why is it ALWAYS the warehouses?” asked Miguel…
