In the dark, Alex bumped into something cold and made of marble. Two eyes stared down at him as a hand wrapped around Alex's throat and lifted him off his feet, choking him. The marble strider carried Alex back to the others.

Alma waves to Wilson.

"Long time no see, Mr. Science guy! Yeah, I may have gained one or two additional powers, but I am still the good ol Alma."

Her sight slowly examines the group. She stops at Alex.

"I see you've made a new friend! Good for you..."

And then she stares at Marcy, before bursting in a loud crooked laugh.

"And you? What do YOU have to tell me about my new look, Marcy? Do you like it? Do I scare you?"

Marcy shivers and mumbles stutters.

"W-Wil...Wilson?"

"Don't worry, he is fine. Aren't you, Wilson?"

"The result.....will be the same......I don't..."

 

Wilson struggled up onto his feet, and reached into his backpack, pulling out an axe. His eyes glowed brightly as he moved over to Marcy, keeping her within easy reach.

 

"....back down, so easily. This time, maybe you'll have the sense to stay dead."

 

"Valiant words, Mr. Higgsbury. But vain ones, all the same."

"And not the kind of surprises I like, either. Stop posturing and make with the bloodshed already, Alma. I didn't give you a taste of my power just so you could showboat."

 

Rustlung floated over to the marble strider and materialized.

"I want the boy to see the show. Is that so wrong? If I hadn't spoken up, my friend would already have snapped the kid's neck. Besides, I think you might want to re-prioritize, shadow."

"If that was true...."

 

Rustlung readied his axes, marble tendrils rising out of the ground around Alex, forcing him to stay put.

 

"You would be keeping an eye on Marcy, instead. But, yes...indeed. It's been a while since I carved a shadow creature to pieces."

 

Rustlung's axes glowed bright red as he swung at Entropy.
