Bruce lifted his head out of the… squishy ground. “Ugh” he rolled over and sat up to find Tim investigating something. Tim glanced at Bruce, “Oh hey! You’re finally awake.” He said. Bruce muttered something then stood up. Looking around he saw, what looked like muscle, wrapped around pieces of TEK. Some strange plants grew from the pink soft and bouncy ground. Bruce just hung his head, “H-LNA, where are we now?…H-LNA?” Bruce looked around to find the little robot company wasn’t floating next to him as she normally would. Tim frowned, “Yeah about that, H-LNA seems to be missing. Along with us. I’ve never seen this place in the whole simulation.” Bruce nodded, “Yeah I’ve noticed that.” He looked for a way out of this flesh infested cave. “I’m detectable heavy amounts of element though.” Bruce’s eyes flickered with purple electricity. “This way.” After walking a bit Tim froze, “Hear that?” He asked. Bruce nodded “Hear it? I can feel it.” Suddenly a large star shaped beast shot up and screamed at them. Bruce guarded Tim as the creature flow away. They ran a couple miles before stopping to rest. Large claps of what seemed like thunder rang out loud though the cave. “What is that?” Tim asked. “I’m not sure but it sounds like thunder…. maybe a lightning storm?” Tim shook his head, “That sounds to heavy to be thunder.” Bruce noticed a slight shaft of light, “There!” They ran for the entrance. They got to the mouth of the cave and saw a beautiful landscape, mountains, deserts, and jungles Tim shook his head again, “What is this place? It seems to be a mixture.” He pointed to some castle, “Those are the ruins I found on Ragnarock.” Bruce nodded, “And that looks like the volcano for the Island.” he pointed to a large mountain covered in TEK. A huge clap of thunder rang out making them both jump. A black mist that was in the distance dissipated and glowing white figure floated down to a clearing. Tim pointed warily, “Was that… a Homo Deus?” Bruce shrugged, “I doubt it.” Tim looked at Bruce. “You doubt it?! I mean for crying out loud they have a flying paradise.” He exasperatedly stuck his hands out at it, “You doubt that that was a Homo Deus?” Bruce shrugged again, “You never know but whatever that was we should check it out. I have a hunch…” Bruce looked a Tim, “Still got you TEK claws?” Tim nodded activating a transparent diamond. “Seems it gets rid of companies but not equipment.” Tim said nodding to Bruce’s armor. “Yeah.” Bruce drew a piece of element. Warm to his touch and sparking, he put it back in his pocket. “Lets hope whatever this place is stays out of Elements reach.” “Agreed.” They ran for duo rushed forward and into the wilderness beyond.
