A bob-cut brunette in an office suit rubbed her right index finger gently on the tiny scaly forehead of a cute little white snake that had coiled around her wrist.

"Little Beam, where did your master go? She said she would be right back," Susan asked Beam bored out of her mind. She was beginning to understand that with Corey around her day would always be eventful and never the same as the previous one. She could not believe she who was married to her work would someday get bored of a regular day and instead long for an eventful one.

"..." Beam ignored Susan, if not for Corey asking her to guard Susan with her life she would not even waste a single second of her time with this human when she could be with her beloved master.

"Don't pretend to be asleep, I know you are awake," Susan said gently caressing the scally body of the little reptile with her right index finger.

Beam continued to ignore the human until, "Beam, you better answer me otherwise I will tell you master that you were sleeping instead of guarding me."

Hearing Susan say this, Beam's shut eyes opened wide, and rising its head it glared at Susan with its slit red pupils while flicking its forked tongue at her in a complaint.

"I knew it you were pretending to be asleep," Finally receiving a reaction from Beam, Susan laughed joyously. She found the complaining Beam cute. However, she had no idea that she was playing with fire and how close she came to almost burning herself.

"Okay, okay, stop hissing. As long as you promise to play with me I will not only not tell Corey that you were sleeping but also praise you. What do you think?" Feeling Beam's annoyance Susan assured her that as long as she behaved she would sing praise of her to Corey.

Beam frowned her hairless scaly brows as if in a deep contemplation, thinking over Susan's proposal. As much as she did not want to interact with this annoying human, she would love to be praised by her master. Beam was in a dilemma, should she become friends with her rival for her master's attention to gain her master's praise? Her little brain finally concluded that she would prefer to be praised by her master. However just as she was about to nod agreeing to Susan's proposal, a heavy intimidating aura surrounded the entire compound of the new headquarters.

Alerted by the aura, Beam unbound herself from Susan's wrist and grew in size, big enough to coil around Susan from head to toe. Beam had used her body to shield Susan from any form of attack from any direction.

The intimidating aura was followed by a thunderous voice, "Wyatt! Get out here."

The voice was heard across the headquarters's compound. Every single soul within the vicinity of the compound heard it loud and clear. The male voice continued to yell, "Wyatt, I know you have returned to the card world from the yellow pains after dealing with the plague egg. If you are a true man come out and face me. Otherwise, I will wipe this little pet project from the face of this world!"

The voice seemed to have bone to pick with Wyatt. It sounded super pissed and enraged. Nobody who heard it had a single doubt that it would not be able to do what it claimed. They all were scared silly and wanted to run for their life but the intimidating aura of the voice had rendered their legs weak, they did not have the strength to take another step. With every passing second they felt as if it was going to be their last.

"Wyatt, come out when I am being nice. Do not force my hand," Receiving no response the voice grew angrier and impatient. The innocent souls strapped in the compound of the headquarters were starting to see their whole lives flash by in front of their eyes. They seem to be coming to terms with their end. Even if by some miracle they managed to survive this ordeal, they will be stuck in therapy or a loony bin for the remainder of their life.

…

Susan was better off than the others in the compound as Beam was not only physically shielding her but also spiritually. As a result, she was unaffected by the intimidating aura and totally fine. She was the only human in the compound except for the Calamity Daughter Gems thinking straight at this moment.

While Sarah rushed to Wyatt to inform him of the incident. Susan instructed the white snake protecting her, "Beam take me to that person before he takes extreme measures."

The real reason why Susan sought to meet the voice despite knowing it was hostile was because the voice seemed to know about Wyatt. She wanted to enquire about Wyatt from him as others were not telling her much about Wyatt except that he was fine and doing well now. This was pissing her off because she could feel something was going on but whenever she asked about it others made excuses to avoid answering her. It's time she got the answers she needed.

"Hiss.." Beam did not agree with Susan. However, Susan blackmailed little Beam again, "Take me there now or I will tell Corey that you were sleeping instead of guarding me."

Beam's giant forehead moved to stare at Susan with her big blood-red slit eyes but Susan did not budge instead she stared right back into them and demanded, "Take me there now."

"Hiss" Beam caved, she had no other choice because her master valued his human very much for some unknown reason.

"Umhm…Umhm…" With Wyatt's celestial force closing her mouth Corey could not speak no matter how hard she struggled. Ignoring her Wyatt invited Sarah inside.

Entering the seed world Sarah immediately transferred what she witnessed and experienced outside to Wyatt through the Hive AI, as showing Wyatt what happened was better than painting its picture with ten thousand words.

"Shit!" Wyatt cussed going through Sarah's memories.
