The pitch black cocoon suddenly liquified and fell to the ground like a thick sludge, revealing Hayley's unconscious, limp and naked body with her feet touching the ground and torn shreds of every single clothing item she wore on her, her shoes being the only things that remained intact. The horns and wings that previously grew out of her body had all but vanished and her now pristine body seemed to bear no visible wounds, scars or bruises anymore. The same black, shiny sludge covered her entire lower torso, small parts of her front upper torso like a censorious cover and her hands and forearms to resemble gloves. It would occasionally crawl around like a living thing and reveal bits of skin as it did, but not too often to be starkly noticeable and it would always return to its suit-like form. Her back, most of her front upper torso and shoulders up remained bare for the male fighters to see, but her skin took a noticeable paler hue. A black streak was visible apart from her stark blonde hair on the left side of her head. When the body began to stir and stand up straight, she opened her eyes to reveal bright red irises outlined by dark limbal rings and sharp, slit-liked black pupils on the contrasting background of black sclerae. As she opened her mouth to speak, the voice that came out of her mouth bore some resemblance to Hayley's voice, but it was heavily distorted, as if multiple different people were speaking through the same mouth with the same intonation and tone, and it rung with an eerie, emotionless echo, much like a robot. "Dormancy state permanently eliminated. Vital control has been activated. Primary observation completed and temporary priority has been formed." "Preparing to eliminate imminent threats." Without warning, the woman that used to be Hayley dropped into a fighting stance as the sludge under her feet suddenly moved towards Nigel and Isaac, sharp spikes erupting out of it as it trailed off towards her targets.
