Chapter 10: Warriors
Dr. Rodriguez peered through the microscope, her eyes widening as she examined the peculiar tissue sample. "Fascinating," she breathed. "The cellular structure is similar to ours, yet the mitochondrial density is off the charts. It's as if their cells are capable of producing energy at an exponential rate."
Dr. Patel, a soft-spoken microbiologist, nodded in agreement. "I've been analyzing the bacterial flora in the carcass's digestive tract. It's a unique blend of archaea and bacteria, unlike anything I've seen before."
Suddenly, the automated voice of the base's security system crackled over the intercom. "Warning, restricted area breached. Unauthorized personnel detected. I repeat, this is a restricted area. Please vacate immediately."
The scientists exchanged worried glances as the soldiers opened fire. However, their concern turned to shock as the bullets ricocheted off the intruder.
"What the...?" Dr. Rodriguez trailed off, stunned.
The cameras flickered, adjusting to capture the newcomer. A burly man with an unsettling orange glow emanating from one eye strode towards the gate, unfazed by the hail of bullets.
"He's not even flinching," Dr. Patel whispered.
With a single, effortless punch, the man knocked down the gate and continued walking. Dr. Rodriguez quickly grabbed the comms device. "Soldiers, stand down. Let him through." She pushed a button on the controls unlocking all doors leading to the innermost lab.
As the man approached the innermost lab, the scientists watched in awe. He ignored Dr. Rodriguez's attempts to introduce herself, instead fixating on the carcass.
With an incredible display of strength, he leaped 45 meters forward, landing on the chest area. The scientists gasped as he tore through the chest plate with his bare hands, creating a 3-meter deep hole.
Dr. Patel's eyes went wide. "That's impossible. We've been using the most advanced drills, and we've barely made a dent."
The man jumped into the hole without hesitation, emerging minutes later with a crystalline ball. He locked eyes with Dr. Rodriguez, a hint of a smile on his face.
"My name is David Allen, but you can call me Destro. When these things come to Earth, leave it to me. I'll take care of it, as long as I get these crystal balls."
Dr. Rodriguez's curiosity got the better of her. "How did you find this place?"
Destro's smile grew wider. "I could just sense it. Or maybe this..." He glanced at the crystal ball, now glowing softly in his hand.
As he turned to leave, Dr. Rodriguez called out, "Wait, what's going on? What are these creatures?"
Destro's expression remained unchanged as he answered. "I don't know I'm only a human. I became like this after the crazy weather anomaly and I doubt I'm the only one. I don't need to tell you that you need to gather all of us before the next attack. I'm sure the footage is enough to convince the higher-ups. Be fast; I feel uneasiness. The next one is coming soon."
With that, he jumped of the carcass, going outside then jumping so high into the sky they could see him, leaving the scientists stunned and bewildered.

Dr Rodriguez showed the president the footage then proceeded to speak
Dr. Rodriguez shook her head, still trying to process what had just happened. "I'm still trying to process what just happened," she said. "The man, David Allen, or Destro as he calls himself, just walked through our security like it was nothing. He took down the gate with a single punch and then proceeded to tear through the carcass's chest plate with his bare hands. It was like nothing I've ever seen before."
"I know it sounds crazy, but he seemed to know exactly what he was doing," Dr. Rodriguez continued. "He retrieved a crystalline ball from the carcass and then just disappeared into thin air. And the weirdest part is, he seemed to be expecting something to happen soon. He told us to gather all the 'others' before the next attack."
The President turned to Dr. Rodriguez, his expression serious. "Dr. Rodriguez, how do you propose we find these... others?" he asked.
"I think I can help with that, Mr. President," Dr. Patel said, stepping forward with a nervous smile. "Using a special ray detector, we can identify individuals with unique energy signatures. The stronger the person, the more it beeps."
The President nodded, his eyes lighting up with interest. "I want to discuss this further with the other world leaders. Let's schedule an emergency meeting."
Later, in the meeting with the other presidents, after showing them the footage, the President explained the situation. "I've just witnessed something extraordinary," he said. "I'm telling you, it was like nothing I've ever seen. With the help of my scientist they have created a ray detector that can be used to find these people through the parckes they emit."
"I'm sending over the designs for the ray detector," he continued. "Let's work together to find these... special humans."
One of the presidents, a tall, imposing figure, spoke up. "What do we call them? These individuals with extraordinary abilities?" he asked.
Another president, a soft-spoken woman, smiled. "In the old days, we referred to those who protected us as warriors," she said. "I think it's fitting that we call them that again."
The room fell silent for a moment before the presidents nodded in agreement. And with that, the search for the warriors began.
Press conference
President of the United States steps up to the microphone, a solemn expression on his face. "My fellow Americans, we stand at a critical moment in our nation's history. A new threat has emerged, one that requires bravery, strength, and extraordinary abilities. We're calling on the warriors among us to step forward and defend our nation."
He pauses, his voice filled with conviction. "We'll provide you with the best training and equipment available. You'll be recognized and rewarded for your service. But most importantly, you'll be fighting for our way of life, for our freedom, and for our future."
As the President finishes his announcement, the camera cuts to footage of Destro, the mysterious figure with extraordinary abilities. The President's voice overlaps the footage, urging the warriors among them to come forward and answer the call.
