C 79. Growing Fetus

//Sector 7, Northern Wing. MC POV\\

I smiled at him and bent to match his kneeling height and then asked, "What is your ability and how do you feel?"

"Hmm, you are not him?" He said with a clear voice and mind.

"That is not the answer!"

"If I study any animal physiology and morphology I can transform to that animal any time I enveloped my body with my energy.

But then the Great Sage said I smell bad. He did not explain why but he did say that my power will be limited and then suggest something new, and with that, I will break the previous limit.

I have to dispel my transformation energy and generate a new one.

He makes us find a tiger that is sick, a type of sickness that will not survive for long. He instructed me to take care of her and be her friend along the way until she died.

After it died I studied it completely then I used that to generate new energy that will make me transform into the tiger

But I couldn't do that, he said till the energy reached a certain threshold I could do it. 

And two weeks ago the energy I felt entering and going out was ten times the energy that I used to have when I was in my prime.

My body now can't handle this power, this much energy. I was only able to survive with the help of miracle water.

Now, I can feel a breath of thick air passing through me and going out contentious non-stop."

Hmm, The Great Sage, that is what they call my Alter-ego.

"Well, he is an idiot and he doesn't know everything. But what he said about having unlimited potential is true.

I want you to calm yourself, I will try something. From now on only your mental fortitude can help you!"

"What are you going to do?" Dr Don chimed in, "Last time you did something shit and now you want to try something."

"Do you know you smell like rotten carcass amidst rotten leaves? Please stay away from me, you are distracting me." I asked him back.

I turned and looked at Dr Khan for permission. At first, he just looked at me before he nodded.

The Doctors all move away from us.

"Okay, please stand. " He acted like an obedient child.

I'm tired from using my eyes for an extended time but a little rest is all I want.

After he stood I activated my eyes and told him to be calm and stay strong.

"Do you know that you are breeding a tiny little tiger with that energy? 

It was that little tiger that attracts the energy and grows by absorbing it but the trouble maker is asleep.

I'm going to try to wake it up to take the energy in her and spare you the pain"

As I concentrated my eyes, I saw the little tiger again and as if disturbed by my gaze it growled.

Ignoring that, I extended my hand to touch the tiger position on his chest.

Nothing happened.

So I went around to his back to touch the place where the little dot of the tiger was. It was within his back on one of his Spinal Cord bones.

Before I touched I felt something holding me, knowing the type of instinct is a warning.

I lean my head toward the tiger that is waking off. It is a ball of Greenish White dot, coiled like a fetus in a womb.

And as I observed the fetus, I never saw a tiger's fetus before but the incomplete organs and limbs all tell the story that it's a fetus growing.

My conjecture is that the Green Energy in the air is completing its body, but the little tiger was absorbing it in such a small quantity that the man is suffering from too much energy entering him.

I strained my eyes more as I know my gaze is said to be tangible. And this Tiger will surely feel the gaze.

It was facing his chest but it turned with folded legs and looked at me lazily.

"Wake up!" I whispered. With all the intention of the meaning while I was looking at it.

"Wake up! Your vessel will die if you keep sleeping…"

The head and the eyes of the Little Tiger was the only completed organ, the fore and hind limbs are but a stump and their size are at the first joint.

The tail was also only a small whip, but then the inside organs each were just a dot without any resemblance to what they are.

The only internal organ that is a bit defined is the heart even though that was just a shape, not the whole heart.

My eyes and head are aching.

But all these limbs and organs have a thin thread that connects them with the energy that enters the man's body. 

Through the thin thread, they keep absorbing the Green Energy to develop.

"Wake up."

It was still giving me an earlier creepy look that I think it's a smile but, there is confusion as if it doesn't know what I was saying.

Yes, how could a ball of energy know?

Let talk with intent then.

I closed my eyes and opened them with a great stare that I felt my head pounding with a hammer but the intent behind the gaze is.

~Wake up, your vessel will die if you keep slumbering.~

There was no change to it, but then it wagged its tail, stretched its stump leg, shook its head before it returned a stare to me.

It tries to convey something but I'm too tired for that, I fall back and my eyes turn off. I also felt my eyes and body numb.

But the pressure was increasing around me.

I tried to pry my eyes open then I saw the man just standing there breathing. My instinct started screaming danger.

I dragged my tired body away from him until I reached about five meters then I stopped while panting.

Damn, that was dangerous, Great Sage, what in Heaven's name did you do?
