In the superior most of our body, deep into our skull, lies a huge clump of tissue made of interconnected nerve cells. The brain. The brain serves as our center of mental and motor processes. Without it, we would be like the dead. It's the most vital organ in our system, but it's the one that is not fully understood. Since the beginning of time, many mysteries have been hidden inside our brains, waiting to be discovered and understood. But despite the difficulty and dedication of experts, they still fail to uncover its hidden secrets. Well, not for long. A private group of scientists experimented intending to unlock the remaining capacity of the human brain. All they wanted was to know, but what they did was to reveal. Despite their success in discovering and exposing its secrets, the world became closer to danger. A danger they unintentionally unleashed.

The Mindbender's Journey

I looked at my watch and realized that I had been fighting this monster for half an hour. This was my first violent encounter. I had already exhausted all my grenades and ammunition, left without any weapons. My psi balls were ineffective too, as they needed time to form. If I kept relying on them, I might be caught off guard.

I glanced at the exit and wondered why the membrane didn't revert to its previous state. It seemed incapable of regenerating once burnt. But how did its eyes regenerate? 


Looking at its eyes, I realized that it hadn't regenerated them but covered them with new tissues, creating new eyes.
