Escalating Risks

Rapidly colliding in the sea of rats, Alex let go of any reservations he had. He completed his meld with White, the wolf in his mind settling in completely as he heard his voice for the first time on this side.

'Master, my words can finally reach you. I revel in the opportunity to fight by your side fully again.'

'We'll see about how long we can survive, White. The situation isn't looking good.'

He felt the wolf's confidence bolster up in his mind.

'But Master, you aren't using every resource at your disposal.'

Alex almost stumbled at the comment. He kept streaking his claws in front of him, in large arcs, tearing his enemies asunder, while he wondered what he wasn't using.

Seeing his master not figuring it out by himself, White just told him.

'Master, you aren't calling on my daughter. Call Genie out.'

Alex's mind went blank.
