The metal hero said, “just sparing with that beast. Man, he hits hard.”
“Beast?” Quark helped the man up.
The metal man said, “yeah, hairy dude that’s really picking lots of fights in there.”
Chase said, “I want to check this out. Those walls are supposed to be indestructible. I don’t know what could do this so easily.”
Quark and Chase made their way to the back room door. This was a special door that would only open to a person with super powers. This was the true reason behind the Fight Clubs, to locate and help train morphon infused humans with powers.
Inside was a room designed to handle super powers. All the equipment was specially designed to challenge the super-physical condition of the people using it. Half a dozen morphon powered people stood around the walls, fearfully staring at a man in the middle of the room. Not a man, but a beast. This creature had the fur, tail, claws, mane, and face of a lion, and the body of a man. He had a sword in one hand and was wearing what looked like a roman legionary leather skirt.
On the ground, cowering in front of him, was another man, only wearing a Roman helmet and a pair of boxer-briefs. He said, “keep the clothes and sword, just… leave me alone!” Scrambling up, he scurried out of the room.
Chase held up the scanner, “it’s coming from him. He’s the source of the signal.”
Quark’s eyes widened, “he is like the other, an Avatar of Morphons.”
The lion man roared and then growled. “Yes, I’m the Master of Strength! I’m the Avatar of Morphons! If what I have found in this place is all that is, the power of strength is poorly used by humans.”
A woman yelled, “we aren’t the only heroes!”
To this, he smiled, showing fangs. “Good. Then a test must be had. Yes, a test. A challenge. I will grant your strength even greater power, in return you will show me you are worthy of it. If I am no more impressed, then I will take away your strength. If you adequately rise to the challenge, then you will be rewarded. GO!” He let out another roar and then stomped over to the hole in the wall, punched it further open, and walked through.
A man asked Chase, “What was that about?”
“Just another test.” She flipped open her comm unit, “Nova, we’ve found another Avatar.”
