Chapter 12
Nash woke up feeling cold and damp. He slowly opened his eyes to find himself lying on what appeared to be a hard, flat surface. The light was dim, coming from an unclear source above, casting long, strange shadows around him. He was not in the capsule, nor was he anywhere familiar.
He raised his head with difficulty and felt a slight pain in his neck. He was in a large cave, its walls glistening with strange metallic materials that reflected the dim light. There were no signs of monsters, not even a trace of the capsule he had been in.
The air was damp and cold, carrying an earthy smell mixed with a sharp metallic odor. Nash tried to remember what had happened. The tall creature... pulled him... then he lost consciousness. Was this creature the one who brought him here? And why? He looked around slowly, trying to take in his surroundings.
There were huge rock formations protruding from the ground, seemingly carved naturally, but with strange geometric precision.
Suddenly, he heard a faint sound, like a deep whisper, echoing through the cave. It wasn't understandable words, but a series of tones and vibrations that pierced his body. Nash felt a chill run down his spine. He was not alone.
He slowly turned toward the source of the sound and saw the tall creature standing a few meters away. It was motionless, like a statue, but its eyes glowed with the same faint light he had seen before. The creature did not move, but Nash felt as if there was an invisible connection between them. It was not calmness in the creature's eyes, but curiosity, or perhaps something else that Nash could not understand.
Nash tried to move, only to find himself bound by chains on his feet and arms.
"Where am I?"
"Who are you?"
"What is this place?"
Nash asked the tall creature as he examined its facial expressions.
"*&^%$" The tall creature spoke in a language he did not understand.
"Einar, translate this language," Nash ordered as he examined the tall creature.
...
After waiting a few seconds, Nash did not hear Einar's usual response.
"Einar? "
There was no sound this time either.
"Huh?"
Nash looked at his wrist and found that the device covering his left arm was missing.
"Where is it?"
Nash searched for his device around him, but he couldn't move because of the chains restraining his hands and feet.
The device was used for long-range communication and to access artificial intelligence, as well as nano-technology that helped him in combat.
"That's it!"
Nash glimpsed a bright light flickering and working among a pile of debris in the distance.
He suspected it was his device, but he couldn't move toward it to retrieve it.
" */*/-" The tall creature approached him, muttering incomprehensible words.
"I don't understand you! Who are you?"
Nash shouted as he moved his feet.
The tall creature advanced toward him until it grabbed his feet and began to untie the chains.
Then the tall creature reached out, grabbed his pants, and tore them off with force.
"What—what? What are you doing!"
Nash shouted, trying to move his feet to escape this embarrassing situation. He didn't have the luxury of full movement, but he tried to move his feet quickly when the tall creature removed the chains from them.
The tall creature paid no attention to him and began pulling off his clothes one by one.
It cut his shirt and pulled the remaining pieces of his clothes until Nash was completely naked.
"What the hell are you doing? Get away from me!" Nash shouted as he kicked the tall creature in the face.
Boom!
Nash's foot hit the tall creature's face, but what he felt was pain, and what the tall creature felt was anger.
"Grrr!" The tall creature became enraged, grabbed Nash by the neck, and began swinging him around.
"What did I do in my life to be raped by an alien on an unknown planet? Damn it!" muttered Nash helplessly as he tried to resist at first, but his attempts ended in failure.
The tall creature turned Nash's body in every direction as if looking for something, and after a while, it stopped and approached his right thigh.
" */*/--##" screamed the tall creature, looking happy when it saw this.
Nash moved his eyes to see what was going on and was surprised to see the tall creature looking at his right thigh.
Nash quickly shouted, "Is that little ass all you want? Get away from me, I'm not gay!"
Boom!
The tall creature hit Nash's butt and threw him to the ground, then began to untie the chains on his hands.
