Al was still gripping his wounded shoulder. Blood was leaking from the wound fast and showed no signs of stopping. His mind went back to when he cauterized Liz's leg wounds. He was resistant to his powers so he wouldn't have to be careful like he had been with her. He filled the palm gripping his shoulder with fire as hot as he could make it, until he felt a slight sting on his shoulder as the temperature of the fire fought his resistance and he felt his wounds burn shut. He could only look at the monster that had given him the wound as it stopped writhing after Sky's scream taking on a docile appearance. "Whats wrong, afraid to go again?" The beast snarled something he couldn't make out. He couldve swore it was trying to say something.

"V-vitttuss....."

Al was a little shocked that the beast had said something, but he was even more taken aback by the tone it used when it spoke the Vitus name. It sounded full of contempt and anger. "You thought I was Vitus?" 

The beast tilted its head in confusion not understanding what it had done. Was his target not Vitus something on the ship and sent the entire ship into a panic and he had used that to escape from his cell and he killed every single Vitus that had gotten in his way. He could only make out shapes of things but he didn't know Vitus that could do what these newcomers had done to him. Only one thing could explain this these things were another species the Vitus were using for their experiments just as they had for his all those years ago. 

Allen had burst into the ship breaking the two of them from their thoughts. Allen had shot a blast at the beast who dodged it barely. These meat things were really making it hard to sympathize with them.
