Padma looked into the angered eyes of Takal, staring back at her. She was coming in and out of consciousness due to the attacks made by Takal. Takal had been trying to talk to her but she was unable to hear everything. Takal shook her and yelled, "Hey! You're not that weak are you?"
Padma remained silent and drowsy. Takal sighed as he lowered her body and peered outside of the room. The moment he saw agents approaching the room with loaded guns, he peeked back into the room and sighed with disappointment. He didn't feel like going through a fight, but the agents seemed to want to have a fight. Takal looked down at the weakened body of Padma and had an idea. It was an idea he didn't want to go through with, but it's all he could come up with.
Takal dragged Padma out of the room with her body directly in front of her. Takal said, "Hey! You punks get anywhere near me and I'll rip her apart!"
The agents suddenly stopped trying to pursue Takal as he slowly stepped away from them and then eventually dashed off.
Behind, the agents chased him down. Takal turned to them in anger and couldn't believe they'd actually take this time to come after him. He didn't want to get rid of Padma yet since she held the answer to something or someone he was looking for.
Takal ran through the halls of the CIA headquarters. During this run, Padma began to wake up. Takal noticed this and glanced down at her. He said, "Finally. Now tell me where your vehicle is."
Padma looked behind Takal and saw the agents following behind him. She chuckled and said, "You're not getting out of here alive."
Takal began to squeeze the body of Padma, giving her much pain. She grunted and Takal told her, "Tell me what I want. Or I'll find another human like you to help me find what I want."
Padma caught onto the words of Takal and asked, "What? What do you want?"
Takal looked forward and revealed his secret. "To find them," Takal said very calmly. "To find the people that sanctioned this act against my people."
Padma thought Takal was crazy for this plan, but she saw that he meant it. He was really going to go after the people higher than her. She said, "That's suicide."
Takal said, "I don't care. I'll make sure they die before I do!"
Padma said, "I'll lead you to my car. But I only show you where they are. After that, I'm gone."
Takal said, "Do what you want. I'm only after them!"Padma led Takal into the parking garage where they found her car parked. Padma took out her key and unlocked the door.
Takal tossed Padma into the driver seat and sat down beside her. He said, "Now, drive."
Padma said, "Wait, don't you want to know who you're going up against?"
Takal said, "No."
Padma asked, "But what if they're stronger than you?"
Takal said, "No human is stronger than me."
Padma sighed and asked, "Well do you at least want to know whether they're a male or a female?"
Takal said, "I'll kill a male or a female."
Padma said, "Jeez, you creatures are so straight forward."
Takal turned to her and asked, "Who are you calling a creature?!"
Padma said, "The person that looks like a creature!"
Takal said, "I don't like you!"
Padma said, "Cool, that makes two of us!"
They looked forward and eventually Padma reversed out of the parking space and drove off.The drive was very short and in no time they arrived outside the building of the National Counterterrorism Center. Padma said, "There."
Takal began getting out of the car. Padma said, "Wait! Aren't you going in with some back up?"
Takal ignored her and continued walking forward. He looked up at the building and stopped. He wondered what he was going to experience inside. But the one thing he thought of most is finding the person or people responsible for ending the lives of his brothers and sisters. That's when he realized, the people inside might be a lot weaker than him, but there are a lot of them. He sighed and realized he'd better catch up to Padma before she left.Padma prepared to leave when she saw Takal walking back toward her. She was somewhat surprised by how fast he came back around. Takal stopped a few feet from her and said, "I need this thing called a hologram. It helps me contact my fellow aliens."
Padma nodded and asked, "Where do you think you'll find one?"
Takal scratched his head and said, "Beats me. But I know you've confiscated a lot of them from my fellow brothers and sisters."
Padma smiled and reached into her glove compartment. She pulled out a hologram and handed it to Takal. She said, "Knock yourself out, creature."
Takal was somewhat frustrated with her words, but got over it once he snatched the hologram from her. Padma was about to take off when she realized she wanted Takal to know something.
She got his attention and said, "Don't think of yourself as strong. When you meet who you're planning to meet. You'll learn how little you are."
Takal chuckled and said, "You have no idea who I am, do you?"
Padma chuckled herself and drove off, leaving Takal alone to get into a battle that he was unaware of.
Takal quickly turned on the hologram and began recording a message of himself. He sat it down on the front and did the same to himself. He cleared his throat and said, "Hello. This is Takal, your alien brother. I may not look like an alien right now but that's because of a horrible crime I committed against you all. But I now ask for your help. I'm going to take down the humans that caused so many of us to be hunted down and killed. They're right in front of me, unaware of my presence. Unfortunately, I'm only one man. I need your help. Please. I'll alert you of my location and I ask that many of you show up. Only together, can we destroy the human threat. Please."
Takal ended the holographic recording and turned on the beacon signal. He sat there waiting and hoping for someone to come.
It had only taken nine hours for someone to come to his location. Takal heard someone coming and turned around immediately to see two aliens approaching him. Takal should have felt disappointed, but he felt extremely excited to see them. He got onto his feet and hugged them. The Male Alien said, "We're all you've got?"
Takal nodded and said, "But this is all we need. No more!"
The Female Alien looked to the building ahead and asked, "How many humans are we expecting?"
Takal turned back to the building and said, "No idea."
The Female Alien nearly lost her calmness when she heard Takal say this. She asked, "Huh? What if we're walking into a big massive wave of humans?"
Takal smiled and said, "Then we'll kill them all! Don't forget... we're aliens!"
The Male Alien smiled at the sound of Takal's words. The Female Alien sighed, believing Takal was losing his mind. But she eventually came around and said, "Well, if you're sure this is where the alien killers are, then let's go make as many of them as we can pay!"
The three aliens took their steps toward their next battle... killing an entire human government facility filled with unknown experiences.
