Calypto [5]

The mossy cave was silent. The only sounds permeating its walls were Synth's broken coughs as she recovered from her recent near-death experience.

It had been five minutes since Damien's outburst, but no words had been spoken yet. After all, the three geniuses needed time to gather themselves before facing him again.

In their eyes, the amiable youth they'd met in the starship had been replaced by a monster. There was no way they could calmly converse with him anymore,

Damien sighed as he watched them. Though, couldn't blame them for their current attitude. If Zara hadn't stopped him, he really would've killed Synth.

'Was I being too dramatic?' He asked himself.

The second they dropped into Calypto, his mindset experienced an extreme change. It wasn't just due to his survival instinct or the importance of their mission, it was a reaction akin to PTSD.
