[Vol-2 End] Ch: 106: Exo-Skeleton Armor

  I have no idea how much time has passed. Might be an hour or, I dunno... But ohing was sure, I'm not in some al, but in a room. I looked at the ceiling. It was green and brown, decorated with intricate patterns. I'm pretty sure the patterns just sparkled for a moment there. I must be dazed or delirious with whatever was in the air. The bed I was lying on was very soft, like I was sinking, I turned over and y on my side. The pillow was... really fluffy!

  But something is kinda odd...

  I looked around. Uumm... Why is everything so old and a? Is this a castle or what?!

  I tried to move my body, but couldn't feel anything around my waist. I only move my right arm and... Fuck! My arm looks pitch bck with some kind of scales all over... It's like I grew a fish or lizard skin? What the actual fuck?! My right palm, it's scaly all over too. I looked at my left arm, and it was ed up in a glowing bandage... Magic?!

  A glowing paintings on the ceiling, old furniture, glowing bandages... Kamar Taj?! Maybe a branch of Kamar Taj? Could also be evil magis. Well, either that or I was dreaming. Damn it! I tried to move the b, but it was really difficult to move my right hand. These scales are too hard. I barely grab or hold anything.

  After trying a few times, I mao slightly pull it and saw the remaining body of mi's scaly all over, from my torso to my hips. Not even the soles of my feet are left... It's like... I became some sort on? Scales, wings, and cws, no e teeth though. What the fuck am I talking about? This must be one of the new powers...

  sidering the explosion iy and the fact that my nano suit got bsted to smithereens, this scaly thing on my skin must have protected me like armor of some kind. anic armor?! I kept on examining my arm. I would have thought of other things like whht me here or is it even safe here? But sidering the fact that I'm still alive and kig... well... minus the kig part... I just have to believe that whoever rescued me must be good people. I'll eventually know, so no point wasting time thinking about them.

  What I need right now is to figure out what this shit on my skin is and if I trol it or not.

  After a while, I noticed that I had lost my sense of touch. I mean the sensation of being able to feel my right fiips or other parts. I must have suffered some real damage that turned off all the nerve es or the other clusion that I think of is because of these scales. And whenever I try to move my right arm, all I hear is scratg sounds... Hmm... Did these scales grow or ge the molecur arra in some way and cut off or sever the es to the hat makes more sense.

  Haaa... I goward the window. It's m... I see the sunrise from here.

  With so many questions, I ended up sleeping...

  Don't bme me. I'm tired and injured as fuck... I'll know when they're ing to see me anyway, and I'll have time enough to...

  The ime when I woke up, an old dy ehe room... She is short and has a sharp, but grumpy face. She seemed a little lean. It's like looking at my grandma after she entered her old age.

  I wao talk, but I couldn't move my mouth. My tongue! Shit! I 't feel my face, but I turn it on my sides, well, that's a good thing. The bad thing is that these scales must have grown all over my face. I wonder how fucked up I'm looking, if I get a mirrht now, I might break it looking at myself.

  "Ah! You are awake. I'll call her," She muttered while throwing me a quice. She turned around ahe room while saying "Wait here for a moment."

  'Yeah, yeah, I'll wait here. It's not like I'll run away or anything. Take your time, I'll just lie here,' That's what I'd have liked to say, but sadly my vocal cords won't listen.

  After waiting for a couple of minutes, I heard footsteps outside. Then the door opens again...

  A familiar girl ehe room along with a bald dy. That young girl is Wanda. I'd have said hi to her, but sadly I 't do that. It would seem that she's doing pretty well. Last time when I saw her at the docks, she was kinda malnourished and thin, but now she looks healthy and fit. I'm gd to see that she's doing well.

  As for the bald dy. She was wearing a white robe with golden embroidery patterns and a neckce with a glowing green crystal. I think she's the A One.

  Wanda walked near my bed and sat beside me. Her brows furrowed as she examined my face...

  'Hey, hey. Don't stare like that. I know that I look ugly, but...' Okay! Let me rephrase that sentence. I think clearly, but I just 't move my mouth or any other parts of my body...

  "Wanda, give us a moment, please," The bald dy spoke.

  Wanda nodded ahe room...

  Now it's only the A One and me.

  The bald dy stared at my face for a few seds before speaking, "Yeah, I'm the A One. But the question is how do you know?" She asked with a calm and posed expression as she sat on the chair beside the bed.

  'Magic?! Or telepathy? She read my mind?!'

  "Magiot telepathy." A One answered.

  ' you read my mind?' I asked.

  "Only your thoughts. Your memories, I ot read," She replied as she pced her palms on the edge of the bed. "I tried but something is blog my attempts. Maybe it's your power or maybe you are special. I don't know, but ohing I tell for sure is that you are not normal," A One tinued.

  'Thanks! I guess? What happeo my body?' I asked.

  "You suffered severe injuries. Some of yans were damaged beyond repair. You almost died due to internal bleeding, but your body healed on its own. However, these scales prevented most of the damage. You might not have survived if not for this armor power of yours," A One answered.

  'Armor power? I had no idea I had such power. It must have awakened during the explosion.'

  "Iing... You did not know you had this power?" A One questioned with a surprised expression.

  'No, I didn't. I mean yes! I knew I could use different powers, but armor wasn't one of those. Although, armor is kinda a cool name. Exo Skeleton sounds cooler. Soooo... you remove these scales?'

  "We tried but we failed. These scales grew all over your body and merged with your muscles. It's a part of you and only you remove it. As for removing them forcefully, it might cause perma damage to your body. I suggest you gain trol over them first," A One expined as she touched my scaly right arm and began to exami. "So, bay previous question, how do you know my identity?"

  'Don't you already know the answer? Haven't you already seeure where you asked me tless different questions and learned many things about me? I'm pretty sure that you have already had this versation with me somewhere in one of your alterures.'

  "Future vision? How do you know?" A One questioned as she stopped toug my arm and leaned forward while staring at my eyes.

  'Humm... Wait!' Her expression shifted a bit. 't she see my future? I mean, she , right? Is it probably because of my Immunity power? It work ooo? Too many freaking questions. 'You 't see it, you?'

  "No. I ot," A One answered as she leaned back.

  'Then, I would like to refrain from answering that question because that answer will lead to another question, then another, which might destabilize this timeline and I doubt even you have the power to maintain your sanity after hearing my answer. So, shall we talk about something else, like... How long was I out?'

  "Eight months, 12 days, and 15 hours," A One answered.

  FUCK!
