We were in a large lab with a status tank in the middle of it and Athena asked, "I'm not going in there am I?"
"That old thing? No. It used to house me, however," Ganondorf said as kept walking.
She glanced at it once more before moving on. Other clones were seen and they talked to themselves ignoring the groups walking by.

Keeping to herself, Melee followed everyone else while looking around a bit.

"Just you?" asked Zali, "Seems like they could be useful."
"What use would they have for us?" asked Zelos.
Zali shrugged, "I dunno."
Haku chuckled as he and the rest of us continued to follow.

"I was the first. There are other tanks that housed some of the smaller clones...others...had to have their own rooms," he said.
"Oh yeah," I said, remembering one such clone as Andrew walked ahead.
"I'll meet up with you in a moment. I need to check up with Mario," Zelda said.
"Of course," Ganondorf said as she walked off. He stops near one tank with a medical table nearby and said to Athena, "If you don't mind."
She nods and sits on the edge of it.

"I see," said Zali as he and the others stop, watching Athena sit on the edge of the table, although Brandon began to wonder if it was all right for everyone to stick around to observe. He was ready to leave if given the word, however.

"All you Andrew," Nova said.
"Of course," he said, walking over to a nearby desk and getting a small needle.
"Um..." Athena said nervously.
"You'll be fine," he said, "This only takes a tiny bit of skin and a trace amount of blood.
"I rather not!"
"I figured that much. Good thing Ganondorf is quick as he is."
"What?" she asked and turned to see Nova holding up a needle, blood, and skin on it.
"The one I was holding was just a distraction," Andrew said with a chuckle.
"How did I not see that!?" she asked in alarm, "Or feel it..."

I laugh at this while saying, "That's Ganondorf for you!"
"See?" Brandon smiled, "Nothing to worry about."

"OK, how fast are you?" she asked Ganondorf as he gives the needle to Andrew.
"I don't know the limit yet," he said.
The blood was then placed into a machine for testing, and the hum of it signals it was scanning.
During this, Nova started to hear something in his head but says nothing at this time.

Andrew went to a computer and starts punching in on a keyboard saying, "Looks like you have more than dragon blood in you from what came up. It's almost like yours Nova."
"Almost?" he asked.
"Well the viruses aren't there as well parasites," the scientist said.
"Interesting."
"I'm not sure what to say there," I said.

"You think that could mean that she's...one of Nova's kin?" I ask.
"While being Maxwell's niece?" questioned Zali, eyebrow raised at my stupid question, "I very much doubt it."
I sigh in irritation, "Well then what do YOU think it could be? I'm not one for tech stuff. I have street smarts, not booksmarts."
"Me too, but I still know a thing or two about kindergarten level biology!"
I turn to him, "Are you calling me ignorant?!"
"If the shoe fits..."
"OK, OK, you two," Haku told us, "back off now."

"If want to ask about things like that, talk to my son," Ganondorf said with a chuckle.
"I know how..." Maxwell growled, "Stupid bone..."
I was ready to run, hearing that.

"I'm sorry," Zelos chimed in, "but did I just hear you say 'bone'?"
"Yeah, what's up?" Zali questioned.

"Year's ago, I was injured in a battle and a piece of the broken bone was removed from my body by my attacker. I took care of him but it was already too late as it was sold into the black market," he growled looking at me, "Soon find out the bone disappeared into a girl's body as it somehow fused with her."
"I told you, I don't know how that happened!" I said.

"That's-wait!" I turn to Ganondorf2 after hearing her, "You mean the bone is-"
"This is some Frankenstein sh*t there," said Zali, turning away.
"Zali..." Vincet shook his head.

"I looked into this," Andrew said, not turning, "Had some power left from some sort of event."
This made Maxwell look at him then made a heavy sigh, "That portal...curse it all."
"So it messes up everything on a person's body," Nova then asked, "I guess we are 'related' in a way."
"Don't remind me!" the dragon shouts at him.
"Not my fault you let a simple bone get away from you."

Zali smirked at that while remaining turned away.

That's when Ganondorf had a look of shock for a moment before placing his hand on the side of his head.
"What's up, big guy?" I asked, "You hear something?"
"Kind of?" he said, "Heard a voice in my head."
"You always have those..." I said with a blank look. He always blocked them out, so why now?
"This one stood out."

"A voice?" Zali questioned.
"Again?" I ask, remembering that about him.
{Lost track of time. I'll see you later.}

"Yeah, though it's mumbled, it's new to me," he said.
"Here we go," Andrew said, "You're right Maxwell. Athena's blood shows a mix of different dragon properties. Some I can't identify."
"Is that a good thing, or bad?" she asked.

"I'm not sure," was all I had to say.
The others didn't say anything.

"Just like me a little...though it was unknown at the time," Ganondorf said before hearing a knock on the door, "Yes, who is it?"
"Broly." the voice said.
"Great timing. Come in."

"Another clone?" questioned Zali as he turned his attention to the door.

"Not this one," Ganondorf said as a black-haired man walked in, strong looking too, "Finished with your training, and so soon?"
"Got bored. Hard to do when I need to keep my strength up," he said, "With no partner too."
"Sorry. Once I get a call, I have to drop everything."

Zali took one look at the man, then turned away, "You look plenty strong to me. Why would you need to train?"
"Looks aren't everything," Brandon reminded him.
"I'm kidding, geeze," Zali stands up.

"Got to stay fit you know," he said.
"I'm free now anyway," Ganondorf said, "Let's stay a bit farther out this time. I don't want to hear Peach complaining again."
"How was I supposed to know she was making a cake?"
"I didn't either. I told her to warn us and she hasn't as of yet."
"He's hot..." Athena thought about Broly.
"I need a good stretch anyway," Nova said, "Lead the way."
Broly nods and both men head out.
"If you see sudden changes in weather," I start, "That's why."
"They can change the weather?" Athena asked.
"With the power that builds, yes."

I chuckle at that, not knowing what to say.
"Then this should be interesting," said Zali.

"And if you can see it," I say.
"See it?" Athena asked.
"Is there a camera over there?" I asked Andrew.
"As normal. It better not get sent flying again," he said then to the dragon, "You're good now."
She hops down from the table as I walk toward a screen nearby.

"Everything OK now?" I ask as I stay in one spot for now.

"I'm good, but now I'm curious about that man. Broly was his name?" Athena asked.
"He's also someone you should watch out for. He's not from here...or should I say planet. Warrior race too," I said.
"Warrior race? But I don't see any weapons."
"Fists are a weapon too and boy you don't want to see the force of one single punch from either him or Nova."
The screen turns on to show both men warming up.
"You or me?" Ganondorf asked.
"It's mine," Broly said.
"By the way, you'll have to keep and eye out for anyone watching us."
"I thought I was sensing small energy spots."
