Alpha Level 2

- Catherina POV

A rush of memory to my brain is no joke. and since it is memory about Alpha, that makes it even more, i don't know, scary? dangerous?

i know I've been friend with Alpha for a month and bit more. while for him that was his entire new life, that is just a short time for me.

!?

i don't know why but i think i have to check on Alpha level now. i have bad feeling about this.

"Alpha, can you come here for a bit? "

"hi" is what Alpha said but..

'sure, what is it Catherina? do you need some help? ' is what written on his crown.

sus! i say sus!

(pun for suspicious, you know if you play among us)

"oh there is Nothing actually. just want to check on your power level for research purpose. just to make sure." i said to Alpha as i prepare my Power Reading spell.

this is convenient spell i say. conjure it and you will get roughly how strong someone is. of course there will be no numberfication for power level, so no over nine thousand jokes here. (tehe~)

'oh i think i already reach level two, Catherina. i can feel my body stronger since last night' is what written in Alpha Crown.

eh?

"you.. can gauge your own power now? "

'um.. yes. i think i grow more than just in muscle. i can think more clear and i can feel something. like in here. but i don't know what it is. ' is what written on Alpha crown, as he put his finger on the middle of his chest.

"okaaayy.. that's weird. but we'll get to that later when we get back to my lab. can you tell me what change in you other than what you mentioned? and other than that hi. so stop that hi!. "

yeah, even when his crown write many not Alpha like set of sentence. he keep saying hi. like, hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi. in many different tone and intonation. annooooooying!

'can't stop, haha. i can finally talk so i will do it until i am tired, which is like NEVER! HAHAHA'

Oh Alpha having ego? he say no. interesting. and is this.. mischievous age?

'I'll write my change later Catherina. for now i want to enjoy the scenery.

oh and for you know, there are some human i never see Appear at the edge of our facility. maybe you want to check on that. they are on that direction' Write Alpha as he point to a direction.

human? from outside? ah

"Hunter. so they finally here. ahh so tired of them! "

Hunter, as named is someone who hunt something. mostly animals. it is just at this era, they hunt exotic creature. one of them is evolved zombie who turn into monster.

it help to make world safe, some say. but no.

hunter capture creature that they don't know, and don't want to know, about. keep them in a container that might not meant for the creature, and mostly fail to contain the creature at all, and sell it to the wealthy, who also just want to collect and don't know about safety.

so there is more than one occasion when monster get in human settlement and create chaos because their so called interest.

but the rich suppose to have a secured place by using their money, right?

yes they supposed to have it. but monster, just like my friend here Alpha, is unpredictable. and my job as researchers here is to map any behavior a zombie can have to become a monster.

the hunter don't care about my effort and choose to Capture monster, especially one thet never seen before, which means we don't know anything about their previous behavior or pattern. and when the creature creature chaos somewhere latter, we don't know how to take it down.

and all the blame will fall to researchers and scientific team while the Hunter already run away somewhere far.

oh, is that possible?

i just think about Hunter who hunt exotic monster, who is rare and unknown, which is almost like Alpha.

is it possible, that Alpha is a monster, born from zombie and become a human.

then.. human is... monster?
