Dreams and Haze

"You're not as strong as Lucas," she sneered. If this man was Lucas, she would never have been able to land a hit on him!

To her surprise, the man's face started changing, revealing a grotesque creature that made her skin crawl.

It had a lean and muscular humanoid body. It was covered with reddish scales that seemed to glisten under the dim light.

It had numerous eyes, scattered all over its elongated face, each of them glinting with unsettling intelligence.

This transformation only made her expression grim.

Her mind raced with questions.

Where could Lucas be?

How was this creature able to copy his face as if... as if it had seen Lucas before?

The dread in her stomach only grew as she lunged forward with another attack.

She could not help but be more worried about him!

Why would this creature copy his face?

The creature let out a guttural roar as it lunged forward.
