The Supers: Evolution (2016)

Chapter 12: 11



At Parker Tower, the young adults are explaining their encounter with the Thrells to John, Charles, James, Eva and Sara.

James: Okay, you guys have completely lost me.

Eva: Could you start from the beginning?

Josh: There were five of them.

Trisha: All of them armored.

Maria: All of them not human.

Jessica: All of them alien.

Alex: All of them different colors. Like....think the Space Jam nerdlock aliens, but in armor and our size.

Josh: Alex, I don't think that's helpful. Comparing cartoon aliens to real life aliens.

Alex: Just saying that's how they looked.

John: Guys. Can you focus? Did they mention what they were looking for?

Josh: Well, of course they came for the crystal that landed in Greece.

Trisha: Which our friendly visiting aliens also took from our possession.

Charles: Wait, they have the other crystal?!

Josh: It wasn't exactly easy trying to keep it out of their grasps, Doc.

Jessica: Yeah, these aliens were very skilled fighters.

Maria: There is another thing. These aliens mentioned something about a woman...a woman who's encountered the crystals.

Eva: What did she mean by that?

Josh: I'm not sure, but it might have something to do with Kala.

Alex: We need to interrogate her.

Eva: Whoa, whoa...after what happened with Mom, you want to wake her again?!

Josh: She's the only one who can tell us what we're up against.

John turns to notice Sara has left the conversation. In the labs, Charles prepares the awakening procedure for Kala with James, Eva, Josh, Trisha, Maria, Alex and Jessica present.

Charles: V.O.X., prepare a counter measure in case she powers up again.

V.O.X.: Already on it.

Maria equips her electric stun pellets.

Maria: I'm not taking any chances with this bitch, neither.

Trisha: Maria, we're just waking her up to figure out what she knows.

Josh: Or if she's the woman that the Thrells are looking for.

Trisha: We don't know that!

Alex: What don't we know. We just discovered that we're not alone in the universe.

James: Well, the sooner Kala wakes up, the better.

V.O.X. awakens Kala, who looks around frantically, before Trisha walks up to her.

Kala: What the hell?! Where-

Trisha: Hey, hey! Kala! It's me! It's Trisha! Trisha Campbell, you remember me? We met five years ago?

Kala tilts her head at Trisha.

Kala: Kid?

Trisha: Yeah....

Kala looks around at the team.

Kala: The whole Super team's here.

Kala notices Maria, who's looking at Kala with a cold glare.

Kala: Hey, cop. Been a while.

Maria: You mean since you betrayed my sister here and got my Dad killed?

Trisha: Maria. Not now.

Maria: I'm just saying....

Kala sighs.

Kala: Look, I'm sorry....it's just....Tarmac had my son hostage....I had to...If I had known-

Charles: Ms. Donovan, as much as you three can rekindle your past with these two young ladies, I'm afraid now is not the time.

James: We think you might know something about the alien crystal you found in Afghanistan.

Kala looks around.

Kala: Where's the woman? That woman I saw earlier? Sara? Where is she?

James: You mean my mom?

Charles: She's somewhere else around the tower. In case you got violent.

Kala: Me getting violent?! Do you all not know what she is?! She's not an Enhuman at all.

Jessica: What are you talking about?

Kala: Look...I don't know how, but when I touched that crystal in Afghanistan, it burned visions into my head. I guess it's cause I'm an Enhuman, but....I saw....something...monsters....visions....fire....and I saw that woman at the helm of it all. I'm telling you all; Sara is not what she seems.

Elsewhere in the Tower, John then exits and begins searching for Sara, noticing her on the balcony looking out into the sky.

John: Hey...you okay?

Sara sighs.

Sara: I'm fine.

John: Sara....

Sara: John...please...I'm fine.

John looks closely at Sara's neck, noticing the cut on her neck from her encounter with Kala has healed.

John: Since when can you heal?

Sara: I....I always could.

John seethes.

John: No, you couldn't....you have a scar on your hand....from when we worked on Parker Tower...you accidentally cut yourself with a saw blade....you showed it to me.....show me the scar.

Sara: John...

John: Show me....show me.

Sara sighs, before raising her hand to John, showing that scar has healed, too.

John: Kala's right, isn't she? You're not my wife.

Sara: I'm sorry, John. I really am. I....I really am your wife...but....it's hard to explain...

John: What are you talking about?

Sara: When I was on that alien planet, something happened to me....something changed me. I...I feel....I don't know how to explain it....I'm still your wife, John.

John: Are you? Who....or what are you?

Sara sighs.

Sara: Guess I'll have to explain that in a area that makes sense.

Sara then telepathically grabs John and throws him around, eventually to the point of knocking him out. In the labs, Kala is explaining Sara and the crystals to Charles, James, Eva, Trisha, Joph, Maria, Alex and Jessica.

Kala: I don't know, but the moment Cooper touched that crystal it killed him....and it just gave me visions.

Charles: It must have something to do with genetic DNA recognition.

Josh: What do you mean?

James: The crystal's must only be meant to be touched by these aliens....and Enhumans. You noticed that it hasn't killed any of us.....

Maria: It's a good thing that I haven't touched any of those crystals.

Alex: It makes sense, though. Sara came from a portal.

Trisha: And Kala....

Kala: I know I encountered the one on Earth.

Charles: We've got to take some measures with Sara, then...ask her on all of this.

Eva: Hold on. This is Mom we're talking about.

James: Yeah, but....

Eva: James....

James: We might have to accept the fact that Mom could be...an alien.

Eva: Guys....we just can't turn on Mom....and she's only been here for a few days. We can't make her feel pressured to tell us.

Charles: Look, we can all figure this out at once. We have to talk to Sara.

Trisha: How are we going to explain this to John?

Jessica: I don't know, but it will not be easy.

Charles: V.O.X.? Where's Sara and John?

V.O.X.: Both Mr. Parker and Mrs. Parker are not in the Tower.

Eva: What do you mean that they're both not in the building?

V.O.X.: Mrs. Parker took Mr. Parker to an unknown location.

Charles: What?!

James: What unknown location?!

Eva: Track him!

V.O.X.: I'm afraid I can't. Mr. Parker and Mrs. Parker are both not on the planet.

Jessica: They are both not on Earth?

In the Threll warship, John, chained in the throne, awakens to see Prague smiling at him. John gasps at Prague's alien appearance.

Prague: Wakey-wakey, human....or should I say Enhuman.

John: What the hell? Where am I?

Prague: Definitely not on Earth...but hey, at least, we gave you a nice view.

John looks around to notice Braka, Bruko, Nawk and Blanka in the background as well as the alien warship.

John: You're the aliens that attacked my students in Greece.

Braka: Guilty as charged.

Blanka: Ooh....he looks strong. Wonder how an Enhuman would taste?

Prague: Hey!

Prague elbows Blanka in the jaw.

Brague: What'd she say? She said not to eat him.

John: Who?

Prague smiles then he and the other Vanguards turn to notice Sara walking towards John, who's expression is shocked.

John: Sara?! What the hell is this?! You're with them?!

Sara: It's a bit more complicated than.....You see...(in English accent) Appearances can't be deceiving.

Sara's appearance begins to change as an alien like parasite begins to form over her, destroying her current clothes in the process. Her eyes turn bright yellow and her teeth sharpen, before sharpened tentacles sprout from her back. John's eyes widen.

John: Sara?

The mutated Sara looks up.

Sara: Not really. I have the form of your wife. I physically look like your wife....but believe me, mentally or in her case, telepathically is a whole different story. I am Krylla, the alien goddess.

John: You're that deity that almost came through Earth back in 1996.

Krylla: As I am. Your wife prevented me coming through, but once she entered my world, she was alone. In 2006, we fought telepathically until she was finally drained...and for ten more years, this year, 2016, I was growing stronger, feeding off her telepathy. Your wife's powers are so strong.....

John: What do you want?

Krylla: To rule this planet.....and to offer you a chance to be by the Thrells side when we do.

John shakes his head in confusion.

John: What?

Krylla turns to Earth.

Krylla: Look at this planet. Its atmosphere is being polluted by humans.....trash...gas...and it's species...the history of this planet. Its humanity has persecuted and killed each other for decades over things like ethnicity, gender, religion, orientation, politics or in your case, Enhumans. They've even considered a cure to eradicate your kind. I will offer you one chance to join me. Join our race and become one of my army. You can spare not just your life, but the lives of your Enhuman group...your children....

John: Our children, Sara. Some part of you must still be in there. Some part of you must realize this is wrong. Some part of you must still be in there....some part of you is still my wife.

Krylla's eyes advert to the side.

Krylla: Your wife....is my prisoner.....my puppet to do with as I please....your wife is no longer in control.....and the only way you're going to stop her is if you kill her...which I know you will not do....as you and your code won't allow you to take another life.....even your wifes'.

John looks down and shakes his head, before looking up at Krylla.

John: Sara....please....please...James and Eva....they wouldn't want this. You're a Super. You're a goddamn Super!

Krylla: I...I....

Kryll rubs her eyes in confliction, fighting telepathically with Sara.

Sara: John...John...Please....protect the children....warn them...

Krylla telepathically takes control of Sara again.

Krylla: Shut up, you Enhuman whore! Your mine! Mine to do with as I please! Mine!

Krylla looks down breathless as Prague and Braka share a look.

Krylla: Your wife....is a strong telepath.....As you Earthlings say, the struggle is real.

Krylla walks up to John.

Krylla: But not for me and my kind.....

Krylla touches John's chest as white energy transfers from John into Krylla. Afterwards, the white energy flows in Krylla's hand.

Krylla: Amazing....

John: What have you done?

Krylla: Don't worry. You still have your powers.....I just want to know what yours feels like...it's one of the many things I can do. Take some of your power and use it how I see fit.

John looks up, then his eyes power up.

John: If you're Krylla, then let me give you a demonstration of my powers work.

John then laser blasts Krylla in the chest, knocking her down, then uses his super strength to break his restraints. Braka attempts to attack, but then John uses his flight to ram into Braka. John then throws Braka into Blanka. Krylla then stands and confronts John.

John: Sara.....please.

Krylla's parasitic tentacles burst from her back and attack John, who avoids the tentacles just barely, getting hit in the arm.

John: Agh!

Nawk then jumps and punches John, who stumbles into Blaka, who grabs John from behind. John then headbutts and backhands Blaka, knocking him into the wall. John then punches Nawk, before barely holding the attacks of the Bruko, Prague and Braka. Krylla then uses her parasitic tentacles to wrap them around John's neck and throw him multiple times into the floor. Krylla then roundhouse kicks John, knocking him down. Krylla then backhands John, before launching her tentacles into John's chest, knocking him across the hall.

Krylla: If you think you and your Enhuman family have a chance at stopping what is coming, you are highly mistaken.

John gathers up his strength, spitting out blood.

John: I will never let you take this planet!

John uses his strength and powers to fight off Krylla, Prague, Braka, Bruko, Nawk and Blaka, breaking Blak''s arm. John then tackles Krylla out into the void of space. The two struggle as John barely keeps his breath.

John: Sara! Please! Listen to me! Some part of you must still be in there! Please!

After brief intense staring, Krylla then blasts John into the atmosphere.

John: Sara!

John then brutally crashes into the city of Cairo. After the crash, John barely stands up as Egyptian pedestrians walk up to the crater.

Egyptian Pedestrian: Hey. You alright, brother?

John: Yeah.....

Egyptian Pedestrian: Man. What the hell happened to you, bro?

John: Lost my parachute....

John looks around to see where he is.

John: Where am I? What country?

Egyptian Pedestrian: You are in Egypt, my guy.

John: Shit.....

John checks his pockets.

John: Uh....Do any of you have a phone?

At the Threll warship, Krylla rendezvous with Prague, Braka, Bruko, Nawk and Blanka.

Prague: Well, the Enhuman got away.....What do you want to do? They know we are coming...and they know of the portal.

Krylla: We continue as planned. We open the portal on Earth then let the Threll army come through.....and we will harvest this planet, like all the planets before.

Krylla winces.

Prague: You sure you got that Enhuman bitch in a cage. She's a very powerful telepathic and it looks like you're still losing that fight.

Krylla: She is losing that fight....I am in control....complete control. The woman will remain under my possession.....prepare for another trip to Earth.....but before you and the other Vanguards leave, I'm going to make sure you have an edge.

Krylla shoots John's energetic power into Prague, Braka, Bruko, Nawk and Blanka. Suddenly, all five Vanguards begin to mutate and transform into taller, muscular and scarier versions of themselves.

Braka: Oh, yeah!

Blanka: Dude, I'm taller! Like really taller!

Bruko: We're all taller, you idiot.

Bruko laughs.

Prague: Talk about an upgrade.

Bruko punches the ground, creating a giant crack in the ground.

Krylla: Now, they'll be afraid of us.....
