Doctor Mystery

The moment Lyra spotted the ant-people, it clicked—they were the very creatures mentioned in Brian's files.

Everything about the situation screamed that someone had set them up, but she didn't have time to dwell on that now.

Below the platform, the ant-people swarmed like a living tidal wave.

The clear blue sky above was suddenly filled with green orbs, which rained down like a violent storm. They sliced through the mass of ant-people, slowing their advance, but only by a bit.

The group atop the platform was frozen, staring in disbelief at the chaotic scene unfolding beneath them.

Then, a chilling sensation crawled down their backs.

Amidst the chaos, Lyra alone danced through the battle with terrifying grace. She wielded twin blades that moved like flowing ribbons, cutting down the ant-people with surgical precision.
