34. Two-Tails

Before returning to the RV, I decided to run into my lab to leave all the possessions I had confiscated there.

Arriving at the laboratory, I submitted my Mana to the cube and took out everything that I took from the Forever Knights.

The core of the ship and the parts to repair it, I put in the warehouse. All consumables and crystals went to storage. I left the Knights' Spears in the lab for now, I'll deal with them later.

I was about to leave the cube itself, too, when I noticed that there was something else inside. It was a container. And inside was a DNA sample.

As I understand it, this is the DNA of the same extinct race that was once the ruler of the galaxy.

This race was called Telemat. They lived on the planet Arunian. This is practically all that is known about them.

This cube is produced by this race. I had a great desire to immediately scan this sample with the Omnitrix and get an alien of this race.

But I have no time. I have to go. So for now, I left everything in the lab and dashed off to the RV.

I arrived just when everyone got up and noticed that I was not.

- Good morning. - I said, regaining my human form.

- Morning. Where have you been? - Max asked me.

- I ran to the laboratory on a small matter. - I lied, not telling about my sortie.

Grandpa doesn't like it when I do something illegal, so I decided not to tell anything.

- Something happened? - asked Grandpa.

- No, everything is okay. In fact, everything is just fine. - I said with a wide smile, pleased with my little robbery.

- This is good. Let's go have breakfast. - Seeing that I was in a good mood, Max said with a smile.

Grandpa called Ashley and Gwen, and together we went to the nearest cafe for breakfast. After eating, we returned to the RV and hit the road.

We drove for several hours until, at Gwen's request, Grandpa stopped the bus in a desert area. She wanted to practice magic. Ashley also agreed, as she also wanted to practice a little.

The mobile home stopped near the forest. Coming out of the transport, Gwen immediately took a small magic grimoire and rode into the depths of the thicket, shaking with impatience.

Ashley, too, immediately flew into the forest, she wanted to practice a full cover of stone and wood.

- What are you going to do? - Grandpa asked me when we were alone.

- I need to get back to the lab. There were unfinished business there. What are you going to do? - I said and asked about grandfather's plans.

- I wanted to clean the bus and take an inventory. - Max said.

- Can I help you? Quickly. - I asked, pointing to my watch.

- There is no need. I can handle it myself. You can go about your business. - Grandpa said with a smile.

- Well, my job is to propose. Okay, I'll be back in a few hours. Do not be bored. - I said, and having turned into XLR8, I ran to the laboratory.

Arriving at my Cave, the first thing I did was to take a closer look at my new spatial storage.

As I said, Telemates were powerful thanks to their technomagic artifacts.

This was confirmed after I used this storage with my Mana.

Looking closely at this small cube, I noticed several inscribed runes. The metal from which the cube was made was unknown to me.

After feeding some Mana into it, I decided to check its capacity.

It turned out that there was 4 m³ of free space inside. It's not too much, but that's enough for me.

Unfortunately, there was nothing else inside. Oh, how I wish there was something else inside besides DNA. For example, another techno-magic treasure.

Well, what is not, that is not.

After checking the entire cube again, I did not find anything else, either inside or outside. But it seemed to me that something was missing.

Since this is partly a magical artifact, I decided to do it magically.

At first, I just 'fed' the cube with my Mana for a few minutes. In the end, nothing interesting happened.

After 10 minutes, I still decided to stop this activity, moving on to plan number two.

I cut my hand with a knife and sprinkled my blood on the cube. It's still magic, and without blood nothing works in it.

Oddly enough, but my strange logic worked. After absorbing about half a liter of my blood, the cube shone blue (it looks like I fed it with my Mana for a reason) and it turned into a futuristic black ring.

Taking the ring in my left hand, I put it on the middle finger of my right hand. Once on my

finger, the ring tightened and grabbed it tightly.

Taking my phone in my right hand, I wished it to disappear. And he disappeared. Wishing for the phone to return, he appeared, right in my hand. Very comfortably.

After checking the ring a few more times with other things, I was very pleased with my purchase.

Finally, I put all the DNA samples of my aliens inside my new storage, now they will always be with me. The phone was in the same place.

Having finished with the cube, or rather with the ring, I picked up a container with Telemat's DNA, presumably.

I'm not stupid enough to scan a sample with Omnitrix right away. You never know what is there.

So I took a small piece of DNA and ran a few tests.

Thank God everything turned out to be safe. And I even learned a thing or two about this alien.

According to the analyses, this alien must be physically weak, even weaker than an ordinary men. But because of my serum, this problem is leveled.

I did not read further, I just checked if everything was in order. It won't be interesting that way. I want to find out everything myself.

Finally, I scanned the sample with Omnitrix.

The Omnitrix flashed yellow and scanned the DNA. After 10 seconds everything was over and the Omnitrix was ready to go.

After activating the watch, I scrolled the dial to a new silhouette. The figure at the silhouette was humanoid and its lush coat was clearly visible. He had lop-eared ears on his head. The most, in my opinion, a distinctive feature of the alien were two long tails.

Without waiting any longer, I slapped the dial. After a second, I took the form of a new alien and examined myself.

I was only a meter tall, and I had two two-meter tails. It looks like I can control these tails like hands.

They can also stretch up to five meters. And I still have complete control over them.

I had a yellow coat with black spots all over my body. I was dressed in a black and blue overalls. The Omnitrix symbol, as always, was on the chest. And there were claws on the arms and legs.

To be honest, I was now very similar to Marsupilami (a fictional character in French comics). Only I was dressed.

Having finished examining myself, I decided to test my powers.

The physical strength of the Two-Tails, as I decided to call this alien, was really not very impressive. It was only thanks to the serum that I was not a weakling in this form.

In Two-Tails form, I was about one and a half times stronger than in human form. Compared to some aliens, this is very small. Even a Slug is stronger, and yet it consists of a slurry.

Still, Two-Tails was incredibly agile and fast. And his tails are just terrible power. They are strong, flexible and stretchable. These tails can be used both as a weapon and as a means of transportation.

I especially enjoyed flying with tails like Spider-Man. It was incredible, much more fun than flying with telekinesis.

Then I tested the main power of the Two-Tails. And this is teleportation.

I can teleport to places where I have been at least once and any place in my field of vision. I can also teleport anything that I can pick up. But this is only two and a half tons of weight.

This is an incredible ability. And most importantly, I got rid of the main weakness of this race.

To teleport, I use the special energy of this alien, somewhat similar to my Mana, but slightly different.

It turned out that teleportation is not the ability of Telemates, but a magical technique, but over time, it turned into an instinct.

As I understand it, the amount of this energy is related to physical strength. Without the serum, I would be weaker than a common man, but I could still use my teleportation with almost no restrictions.

And now I have enough energy to teleport to the other side of the galaxy and return back. And the energy will also remain.

Apparently, therefore, the Two-Tails race decided to focus on their technomagic. And they used her special magical energy as a basis.

But from weaknesses, I only have a dislike for water, like cats.

All in all, I was very pleased with my excursion to the Forever Knights. I got not only spatial storage, but an incredibly useful alien as well. And that's not counting everything else that is now in the warehouse.

After all the tests, I did some more tails training. And then I decided to have some fun with teleportation.

First, I teleported to my house, then to France, where I once visited with grandfather, and then to all the cities of our summer tour.

Having played enough, I happily teleported directly to the RV.

- Aaa ... F*ck. Lex, don't ever do that again. - Grandpa shouted, clutching his heart. Looks like I scared him with my sudden appearance. And he recognized me by the symbol of the Omnitrix.

- Sorry, Grandpa. I did not want. - I said in a childish voice, trying to contain my laughter.

- Is this another new alien? - Recovered, Max asked.

- Yes, and you will never guess who it is. - I said in an intriguing voice.

- Really, and who is it? - asked the Grandfather with curiosity.

- This is Telemat. - I proclaimed solemnly.

- Are you serious? - Max asked in shock.

- Absolutely. This is a real Telemat. I named it Two-Tails. - I said with a smile.

- But they became extinct tens thousands years ago. Many people think they are just a myth. Even the Plumbers found out about them by accident. And even then, we only know about their unusual technologies and the name of their race. And it's all. Did Azimus find their DNA and add it to the Omnitrix?

- Not. I found it. - I said and turned into myself.

Then I called the phone from my ring.

- Is it really a spatial cube of Telemates? - with even greater shock, asked the Grandfather.

- Yes. I found it quite by accident. If I hadn't read the Plumbers database, I would never have thought that an ordinary-looking small cube is a high-tech magic artifact. Inside was a sample of Telemat's DNA. - I said, showing off the ring.

- Was there something else inside? - Examining my ring, asked Grandpa.

- Unfortunately no. - I said, shaking my head.

- Well, you already got a lot. - Max said soothingly.

- You're right about that. Okay, I'll go get the girls, otherwise it's time to have supper. - I said and went into the forest.
