The Mercenary
I started to enter Natalie’s mind and to be honest, I was scared of what I’d find, based on how we met.
I learned Natalie didn’t start her life as a soldier or a mercenary. At first, she was a farm girl who worked on a small plot her family owned. She grew up never knowing about her mother, but her father was a soldier in the Vietnamese Army.
Natalie and her uncle chose to separate themselves from the Vietnamese government to create a private Taskforce for International Affairs.
One day, Natalie received a letter from her uncle informing her father had been killed in action. The news made her angry at the world, shutting out every person in her village.
She mostly kept busy doing extra chores around the village to avoid thinking about her father. But one day while she planted vegetables in the local garden, she went through the “change.”

It was the ultimatum from hell, and we knew it. Chancellor Thorne’s voice swirled in my head.Submit yourselves to me, and you shall see your loved ones resurrected. It is only logical.Where do your loyalties lie, anyway? With a human planet that abhors your kind, or with me, who has always been on your side?Argh! Thorne was at it again, using twisted logic to try to control us. If you didn’t know better, you’d think siding with her was the moral thing to do.But I had seen too much. Thorne was a monster, and her blood flowing in my veins was poison to my heart. I would give anything to get my dad back—almost anything, that is—except for joining any cause with Thorne written on it. My stomach did flips thinking that the others might not agree with me.I glanced at Rick. I hadn’t known him for long, but I knew his story.Thorne’s ultimatum wasn&r

We took our uniforms and changed into them in a hurry.“Whoa, check me out,” Adrian said.She emerged wearing a red uniform with gold streaks around it and an oval across her chest.“Looking good,” I said. I walked up to Adrian sporting a green uniform with pink stripes on the sides and a pink butterfly outline on my chest.“Same to you, Medulla!” Adrian said.“Medulla?” I asked.“Since we are going to be bad ass super heroes, I figure each of us should have a fitting name,” Adrian said. “You’re a telepath so you use your brain more than any of us. So I thought why not use a codename that fits your powers? On the field, call me Energygrid.”“Five seconds of wearing these pop-rock band costumes and she’s dishing out the nicknames,” Daryl said, entering the room dressed in a dark turquoise uniform wit

It’s hard to imagine that going up against a power-hungry alien could get any scarier.We all stared at the monstrous display of power Thorne was about to unleash. With the partial energy she siphoned from the Anomaly, we hoped we could stop her.“You children should’ve joined me when you had a chance,” Thorne said. “Especially you, my dear. You inherited your father’s weakness. Your pathetic belief in human righteousness blinds you from capabilities of your race.”She continued ranting while the remains of the academy spiraled around her. “It’s a shame that neither them nor any of you could have seen the true vision of New Akarrius.”“We must destroy that thing on her chest,” Primal said. “It should break her connection to the Anomaly forever.”Thorne summoned a massive ball of magenta energy lights and fired it toward us. “Die,

s I woke up, I opened my eyes while Adrian and Eric tried to revive me. Sweat dripped down my face. I could not help but feel these visions had more connections to the academy. How could we plan a successful escape? “Thank goodness you’re awake, chica,” Adrian said. She gave me a tight hug. For a second, I started to think of Marcy. Even though it was not that long ago, it felt like forever since I had an actual real friend worry about me. “What happened? Where’s Natalie? How long have I been out?” I asked. “You’ve been out for 50 years, chica. We are the grandkids of your friends! And the world is now ruled by giant, talking lobsters.” “What?” “Just kidding, lighten up.” Now was not a good time to joke around. Eric elbowed her in the arm. “Not funny,” he said. “You guys are too tense. After that training, we need a little humor,” Adrian said. “The tr

Keep calm! We got this !" Ying Yang said as the three of us took cover from the relentless soldiers.You can end this! A sinister voice haunted me as we sat there unable to retaliate." We gotta do something now! " Warzone said as she generated a rifle out of her orange energy. "Use it! Use the Anomaly." Are you sure you can make the shoots? " Ying Yang said." After two years, you're still asking me that? " Warzone responded.You could save them! Just like you should have saved your friends and your mother!" Stop! Get out of my head! " I muttered to myself!

Meanwhile back within the facility, the other Ominous are about to encounter four UFOs the size of mini band armored with deadly missile launchers." So much for having an easy mission," I said jokingly." Don’t worry, I have a plan !” Ying yang said. ” You two thinking what I’m thinking?! ”I quickly read his mind and relayed his plan to Warzone." We are now! ” I said." Great! Let’s do it. Attack form Bravo!”We nodded towards him and then Warzone slowed downtime as the UFOs each unleashed a barrage of missiles upon us.Then she tapped Ying Yang and me, which allowed us to move at normal speed while in her time stasis. Then Yin Yang used his telekinesis to levitate the missiles before they reached us.Then war zone summoned two katanas, ran up to the UFOs, And sliced each one in half.

We flew the convoy throughout the facility, hoping to catch up to the others just in time. When we finally reach them, we saw them against a powerful hybrid with dreadlocks and what’s living Monsters made of stone.Guys, we’re back! ” I said to the others as we flew towards them.“Whoa! ” Energygrid said as she turned her attention from the stone creature she was fighting. ” Took you guys long enough!”The stone creature took that moment to through a fist at Energygrid. Only for Warzone to shoot the creature’s head off by summoning a construct of the laser gun, she took from one of the Vanity guards." Holy crap!” Energygrid said. ” You saved me? ”" Why should you have all the fun?!” War zone said.The hybrid attacking them then turned his attention towards the rest of us." Must be my lucky day!
