FOUR DESTROYER OF MONSTER SYSTEM
Episode 3: The Conflict of the Created

Scene 1: The Return to the Lab
(Location: Secret Underground Lab, Night)
The heavy doors of the underground lab slid open with a deep mechanical groan as Dess, Tomo, Feto, Grasper, and Professor David stepped inside. The cold white lights flickered, casting eerie shadows across the sleek metal walls. This was the place where they were created, but now, it felt different.
Dess walked ahead, his massive frame moving with silent fury. His mind was clouded by thoughts of betrayal and resentment. He had seen humans fear him, call him a monster, and treat him as an outcast.
"Humans are selfish. They create us, but they don't accept us."
The others followed, but something felt off. They were no longer completely on his side. The power of brainwashing had started working on them, making them question Dess's anger toward humanity.
The lab's metallic walls reflected the glow of the screens displaying various experiments, notes, and unread data. Dess glanced at one of the monitors, which showed the alien signals that had been increasing over the past few days. He felt a strange pull toward them, but he shoved that thought away.

Scene 2: Dess's Hatred vs. The Brainwashing
(Inside the lab, central control room)
Dess clenched his fists, his red eyes glowing slightly. The alien attack, the experiments, his suffering—everything had been caused by humans.
Dess (gritting his teeth):
"Humans are evil. They used us. They fear us. They deserve nothing!"
His voice echoed through the room, but instead of agreeing, his friends looked at him differently.
Tomo stepped forward. His body twisted slightly, like a centipede ready to attack.
Tomo:
"Dess, you need to stop thinking this way. Humans created us, yes, but they are not all evil. Professor David saved us!"
Grasper:
"You're letting your anger control you. We are stronger together, but not as enemies."
Feto:
"You should change, Dess. This hatred will destroy you."
Dess frowned. Why were they defending humans now?
Then, it hit him—brainwashing.
He took a deep breath, suppressing his anger.
"They're under control. They don't see the truth anymore."

Scene 3: The First Clash
Dess let out a deep breath. He didn't want to fight them, but he had no choice. They were standing against him.
Grasper took another step forward, extending his long arms in an attempt to calm Dess down.
Grasper:
"Dess, you should change. It's not too late to think clearly."
Dess's eyes darkened. "Change?" What did they know about his pain?
Without warning, Dess swung his massive fist, hitting Grasper straight in the chest!
Grasper flew back, smashing into the metal wall.
Tomo and Feto's eyes widened.
Feto (angrily):
"You shouldn't have done that, Dess!"
Tomo:
"If you won't listen, then we will stop you!"
Tomo and Feto charged at Dess, their bodies glowing with energy.
Tomo's centipede-like limbs wrapped around Dess, trying to hold him down, while Feto raised his fists, crackling with electricity.
Feto:
"Don't make us do this, Dess!"
Dess gritted his teeth and burst free, sending Tomo flying backward. He then dodged Feto's electric punch, his movements fast and precise.
Dess:
"You're not strong enough to stop me!"
The fight intensified. Dess dodged another strike, his strength overwhelming them, but he didn't want to seriously hurt them.
Then, suddenly—

Scene 4: The Professor's Intervention
A loud voice boomed through the lab.
Professor David stepped in.
David:
"Enough! Stop this madness!"
His voice echoed with authority, cutting through the tension like a blade. The lab fell silent, except for the soft hum of machines.
David looked at them all, his expression heavy with sorrow.
David:
"You are not enemies. You were born together. You are family."
Feto and Tomo hesitated. Even Dess froze for a moment.
David:
"I created you not to fight among yourselves, but to protect this world."
Dess scoffed.
Dess:
"Protect this world? The same world that rejects us?"
David took a step forward, his eyes filled with genuine concern.
David:
"There will always be fear, but that does not mean you must become what they think you are."
Dess looked down, his fists still clenched. He was angry, but somewhere deep inside, David's words stirred something within him.
Tomo and Feto looked at each other, uncertain. The conflict had left them shaken, and now they were doubting themselves.
Then, Dess turned away.
Dess:
"You don't understand."
And with that, he walked toward the exit, leaving them behind.

Scene 5: Zedo's Dark Realization
While all of this was happening, someone stood silently in the corner.
Zedo.
He had watched everything unfold, his mind swirling with thoughts.
Unlike the others, he wasn't brainwashed.
His gaze shifted toward the massive UFO in the distance, hovering in the night sky.
The bright green lights pulsed rhythmically, as if calling to him.
A strange thought formed in his mind.
"Maybe I don't belong here either… Maybe I… should become one of them."
The realization hit him like a wave.
Was this his destiny?
His heart pounded as he stared at the UFO, and for the first time, a sense of purpose filled him.
He took a deep breath and whispered in his mind:
"I will be… an alien."
He didn't say it aloud. Not yet.
He simply stood there, staring at the distant spacecraft, the glow reflecting in his eyes.
A storm was brewing within him.
Would he remain with his friends… or become something else?
And in the silence of the lab, Zedo took one last look at his team, before turning his gaze back toward the unknown.
