Prediction

To say Ikky made a discreet entrance with a plan in place would be a lie. He advanced from corridor to corridor like a madman. He only stopped when he almost fell into a trap about to decapitate him, but that didn't stop him; he only focused long enough to synchronize and jump over the blades.

He stood ready to enter the room, prepared for anything. On the other side, the creature with a demon-headed helmet stood, threads of black energy coming from its fingers toward a half-embalmed body resting on a large stone pedestal...

"ahhhhhhhhhh....!!!!" A deadly scream came from the body; it was Leira.

A wave of life energy rushed toward Lei's body. Ikky knew he only had a few seconds left; some living organs had already been removed, and without anesthesia, she was weak and wouldn't last long.
