Interesting; though it may complicate survival.</strong><br/><br/>Vivienne quickly joined them. Little Brother watched as the worried woman displayed her concern for Bence and Kara. Emotion. It was emotion that had made her worry. Little Brother didn’t lack emotion, but he believed the Mobicytes used their emotions differently than the Humans. The Mobicyte, personally, didn’t use its emotions to determine logical action, and instead, did the most logical thing regardless of emotion.<br/><br/><strong>The creatures on the ground at your feet are mere shells. They were once a species that thrived on a planet that is no more. The Tauran used up all of the planet’s hosts and resources and have moved on. Like these beasts, the Humans will be wiped out as soon as the Tauran have managed to gluttonize on all of its hosts and resources. We, Mobicytes, come from a planet that was wiped out by the Tauran. We, like the Tauran, occupy hosts but we do so in symbiosis. We landed here in our ship, thinking we had escaped the Tauran, but we discovered that they were already here on your planet. I am uncertain if there are more of us who managed to escape our planet’s destruction, but we have decided that we will run no more and share with you, the Power Rangers, our power.</strong><br/><br/><strong>If I had not been able to rejoin with Bence in time, the Tauran would have destroyed me, and Bence would not be the Bence you know. Together, you all have nothing to fear. The Tauran will not approach us…at least…not without their Queens. The monster all of you fought earlier was a Queen. The Tauran have several more who are seeking a host. The Queens transform the host to accommodate their size and power. There are much larger queens than what everyone fought before. Trust us. We are your only hope at stopping the Tauran.</strong><br/><br/>As soon as Belle and Santiago arrived, they would have heard Little Brother’s projected explanation on the way over. The Mobicyte continued:<strong>I recommend you Humans become closer as a team and share living space. If either of you is alone for too long, then the Tauran will try to kill you. They will not waste an opportunity to do so……I sense I might be able to tap into Bence’s conscience and wake him. One moment…</strong><br/><br/>Little Brother went silent and Bence for a few moments did not move while he sat next to Kara. The large male’s eyes then cracked open as he stared down at his unfocused and blurred lap.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 8pt;"><strong>…Bence….</strong></span><br/><br/><strong>…Bence</strong><br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>Bence!</strong></span><br/><br/>Bence’s eyes widened in horror. His vision focused and his head snapped up in a start as he gazed around at familiar faces thank God. He glanced over at Kara who was seated next to him with his arm draped over her shoulder. Had she been that concerned about him? Oh fuck that was right. There were monsters, his arm, had been ripped off and…Bence drew his arm from about Kara’s shoulder so he could grab the collar of his shirt and tug it down just so he could inspect the arm that he thought had been ripped clean off. It was attached to his torso good as new. Releasing his collar, Bence gave everyone a crazed and panicked look. When did they all get here?<br/><br/><strong>The others were worried about you, Bence, and came here.</strong><br/><br/>“Worried?” Bence finally spoke, and then brought his hands to his face. He was overwhelmed with just…<em>everything.</em>With accepting that there was no running away from being a<em>Power Ranger</em>, from being a worm carrier for whatever those worm things were…oh right. Lowering his hands, Bence said, “Starfish.”<br/><br/>That one word might had been the weirdest and most random thing to say upon waking up from unconsciousness but it was on his mind. “The things in our heads. Their starfish not worms. Those things…”<br/><br/>Bence looked over at the corpses and frowned a little in confusion. “Those are worms. They’re dead…”<br/><br/><strong>I killed them so that we would survive. You are stronger than you think Bence because I am strong. We must grow closer so your body can utilize all of my strength.</strong><br/><br/>“You’re a tiny starfish…” Bence muttered.<br/><br/><strong>I am not the creature you claim. I am a Mobicyte. A starfish is a sea creature found in the oceans of your planet.</strong><br/><br/>Bence grasped his head, realizing that he was sounding crazy. “Look; I understand. I get it. There’s no going back from this fucked up fantasy. I just had my arm ripped off, and now it’s somehow back, and then everybody else is here probably thinkin’ I’m some nut job. I<em>feel</em>like a nut job. I feel like I’m losin’ my fuckin’ mind!”<br/><br/>Bence lowered his arms in defeat. He frowned in frustration, staring at no one or anything in particular. “I’m sorry. I’ve been weighin’ everybody down because I didn’t wanna believe that this is my new life. I almost died because I refused to believe it. Those things tried to kill Little Brother in order to get to me—to make me one of them. They’re worms guys. Large, disgusting, parasitic worms, and once they’ve gotten inside of you, you’re already dead. They’re here, and if we don’t do anything, then there’s gonna be nobody left.”<br/><br/><strong>You must eat Bence to restore your energy and blood volume.</strong><br/><br/><em>You’re like a damn metabolic reminder,</em>Bence immediately thought, forgetting that his thoughts could be read.<em>But fuck, am I fucking hungry.</em><br/><br/>“I don’t know about you guys, but I’m gonna go fuckin’ eat somethin’. I think we should start over and get to know each other again.”<br/><br/><strong>And discuss living arrangements.</strong><br/><br/>“What?” Bence had completely missed the discussion about them all needing to be in close proximity.
