"Great! You are all done!" Dr. Morel said in excitement.

"Yeah, it was quite the struggle, but I'm ready to do my task for the Boss," Paul replied. "Say...Where is the Boss?"

"I'm right here," the Boss answered. Paul turned to the voice. The Boss was standing near the glass screen. " I suppose you are going to test your new power?"

" Y-Yes!" Paul replied.

"Good. Impress me with it," The Boss said smiling.

"Yes, Sir!" Paul said, then turned to Dr. Morel. "Doctor! How do I get down there?"

"You're quite eager. I like that," Dr. Morel said, chuckling. " Follow me."

Paul followed Dr. Morel to a door on the side of the entrance.

"Go down the stairs and you will arrive. I am going to test your powers by sending out some...specimens I have been experimenting with," Dr. Morel said.

Paul went down the stairs, excited to try and wield his new strength. If it's as effective as that in his simulation, which the only clear memory was that fight with the brat in his mind, he should have no trouble beating some specimens or whatever Dr.Morel had in store.

Paul reached a door. He tried the handle. It was unlocked. He walked in and was greeted with a white-tiled room. Upon the left side stood the Boss, Dr. Morel, and a couple of men from the lab. They were ready to see the four powers in combination together.

There were also two giant metal bars, blocking off two rooms.

Then from a loudspeaker on the bottom of the glass screen, came Dr.Morel's voice.

"Alright. Are you ready, Paul?"

"Yes! Bring it on!" Paul replied, stretching.

And with that, the bars lifted and out came...people. Two people with weird technology attached to them

"Wait...what?" Paul asked, confused. "I'm going to fight two people?

"It's not a person," Dr. Morel. "They're androids I have been working on for a couple of years."

"Oh. Alright then," Paul said, getting into a fighting stance.

The androids made a loud robotic sound. Then, human life screams came out and they charged at Paul. Paul dodged one but was pulled down by the second one.

"Ack!" Paul gacked, his head slamming on the hard floor.

He quickly got up before the two androids could get on top of him. They both had sort of an intense killing aura, even though they were just robots.

*Damn...How did I get fucked like that? I thought I had amplified speed and reflex...* he angerly thought.

The two androids charged once again. Paul readied himself to dodge and attack. Then one of them disappeared.

*What the hell...?!*

-WHAM-

Because he was too busy figuring out where the android that disappeared was, the other managed to strike him in the chest. He spat out blood.

"This is disappointing," The Boss said behind the glass. He had been expecting a lot more from the man who volunteered to take in all 4 amplifiers.

"It's going to take a while for him to show his new strengths," Dr. Morel said. "Don't worry, it probably won't take as long. He should have a kick-in soon.

"I'll wait a little more then if you are so sure," the Boss said, eyes again focused on the fight.

*Fuck...! How am I getting so screwed up?*

Paul was exhausted from just that few minutes of fighting. The androids weren't letting up. They were really in it to kill him.

Paul didn't have time to plan as the two androids charged at him again, this time with seemingly greater speed.

Paul jumped back, but the androids got to him as he was about to land. As soon as Paul hit the ground, the two androids attacked. One punched him in the face and the other kicked him in the groin. The pain was so severe it made Paul throw up.

*Shit...! I have been embarrassing myself for the whole time. These two robots are fucking strong... Fuck!* he thought.

As Paul was cursing in his mind, he took a look at the glass screen and saw the disappointment in the Boss' face. Paul mind started to race with nervousness and tension.

Then, Dr. Morel's voice came again.

"I see you have some trouble there. Do you want to stop?"

"No! I can still do this!" Paul shouted.

"Well...If you are that determined, let me give you a word of advice." Dr. Morel replied. "Make an image in your head, bring that image with you here, summon your resolve and strike."

"What does that mean?!" Paul asked.

"Well...that's for you to find out," Dr. Morel said and the speaker broke off.

"Wai-!" Paul started, but the androids started moving again.

*What the hell does that even mean???!* Paul thought. *Bring an image to life? That's imposs-*

Paul didn't have time to finish that thought as another barrage of attacks started. His reflexes are getting better since he has gotten used to their attacks, but there was no sign of the injections working.

Then, as he was fighting, he noticed something flashing on the lower back of the androids. It was small, but Paul could make it out to be a small button blinking red. Without hesitation, he aimed for that spot on one of the androids.

-WHAM-

The android fell and its movement ceased. The blinking had stopped as well. Paul huffed in exhaustion. He didn't know what he did, but at least one of them was down.

Then something strange happened. The other robot started to act weird. They were strange, to begin with, but it seemed as though it was REACTING to the fallen android.

Through the glass, out of Paul's knowledge, was the shining of Dr. Morel's glasses and a smile.

Then all hell broke loose.

The other android disappeared, only to reappear behind Paul.

*Shi-!*

Paul was kicked and flung meters away. The strength of the android had gotten much stronger. Just when Paul started to get up, the android was already next to him. It kicked him in the jugular and roundhouse kicked him in the face at high speed.

Paul felt his bone break. It wasn't just a feeling. His bone actually cracked from the impact.

*Fuck...! It broke my fucking bones! How the hell did it get so damn tough in just a few minutes?!*

Paul was struggling, harder than ever. He could not land a hit on the robot. It seemed to be able to move in a certain way that avoided all of Paul's attempts to get a strike in. Even though its button was blinking as well, Paul could not get within enough distance to do any damage.

It felt...animalistic. It didn't feel like it was programmed. It seemed to have a soul of its own and its acting upon its live characteristics with unbelievable instincts.

Just like him.

*That brat...! He's...he's there? How? Argh..! It doesn't matter! I am not losing this fight again!*

And with that, his body exploded with anger, which triggered the drugs that dwell within him.

Paul disappeared for a split moment and from above kick the android's head off. The head flew and hit the wall.

-CRASH-

"Seems like he got the jest of what I said," Dr. Morel said, smiling.

The Boss just stood there quietly, focused on Paul's transformation.

"Do you think you can beat me again?!" Paul shouted at the robot, who is now Karma to him.

The robot, despite losing its head, still charged at Paul. It disappeared and tried to attack Paul from behind, only to be done in by its own trick.

The android fell down, it's insides making a slight engine noise. There was a sign of blood on the floor, but Paul didn't notice. He took this chance to jump on it and smash the robot's button.

-SMASH-

Paul's strength made his fist completely penetrate the robot's body. The robot stopped moving and Paul got up, exhausted.

"AGHHHHHH!" Paul shouted from the top of his lungs. It was a scream of victory. Of Revenge. Of pride.

But the Boss and Dr. Morel heard it with a slightly different undertone. It was the awakening of something great.

It was the rise of a new beast.
