Just as I was going to say it was a good idea, Carter said "Fine! One on One. I win, you take us to our camp and you damn xenomorphs are going away!" He tore off his cargo pants and both of his shoes. He pulled the white polo shirt over his head. He was left in his white boxer briefs. Brom and Shayne looked absolutely bewildered. If it was just that, it would be okay. He then placed a hand against the disc and said "UNS Form 1, Activate!" The big disc began to glow bright and the nanomites were released and covered his body. A white suit resembling spandex with maroon armor plating appeared on Carter's arms, chest and legs up to the knee. His blue right eye became golden and his brown hair turned into a golden hue. "You better be ready. I'm not the type to go easy on xenomorphs!" he yelled. Brett finished his stretching his legs and jumped up, flexing his wings. "Don't kill him. We will never reach any peace deal if one of them ends up dead over something like this." I reminded. Brett turned to me, but Carter lunged forward and punched him in the jaw. "Don't turn away from me!"
The blow sent Brett staggering back. "Holy shit! They pack a fucking punch!" he said. "How bad was it!?" Paul asked. Brett stood up again and said "Please. I was only at level 20. I was paying attention. Even the grunts in the fighting company are all at least level 21 by now." He then pulled out a white wand with a green star at the end. It was a bit silly and I could not help myself from chuckling. Brett just sucked his teeth. "C'mon man." Paul scolded me. "Let's see how you do against magic." he said with a smile before waving the wand around. Several branches and roots all rose from the ground to attack him. Brett was a Tree Fairy after all. This was exactly his natural environment. Carter was able to dodge all the attempts to entangle him. I knew that he was just being toyed with though. "You better have something better if you want to beat me!" he said. Brett stopped that and then chanted another spell. This time, it was a red beam with a black sparkles. It hit him and Carter gasped out in pain. He just began tensing up as he fell to his knees. "What the hell are you doing!?" Lincoln demanded.
Laughing about it, Brett just smirked and said "I'm just draining his health. I am not going to kill him. When he gives up, I'll stop it." That was a pretty nasty spell to cast on a person you were just sparring with. I wondered if it was a Devil power or a real spell. Carter began coughing up blood. He grit his teeth and spat out "Fuck... you! I'll ne-never... surrender to a... damn m-monster!" Alex pinched the bridge of his nose. He said "Carter! Just give up so we can go already." "Hell no! I'll go Form 2 if I have to! If we can't win here, there's no point in doing anything else." he groaned. "Idiot! That form isn't stable at our level yet." Lincoln said, but it was too late. Carter took a shaking hand and placed it against the disc. "UNS Form 2... Activate." he panted. The light in the center of the disc glowed white and he gained a black spandex-like suit with maroon tribal designs resembling Maori body markings all over with form fitting, dark purple armor plating over it like a cybernetic ninja. Carter was able to get back to his feet and lunge at Brett again. He jumped into the air to dodge and hovered with his wings.
Anyone could see that his spell was still affecting Carter. After a few unsuccessful attempts to jump and catch Brett, he leaned against a tree. His deep breaths were very concerning. The draining could not have possibly lasted that much longer without killing him if he did not power up his suit. "Shit! Come back... down here." he said as he glared hatefully at him. Brett just sighed and said "Listen. I have the high ground and magic. Just calm down and we can talk." A shot rang out and the wand flew out of his hand. I looked and saw that Lincoln had disarmed Brett. "What happened to one on one?" he asked with a raised eyebrow. "Get on with it then. We don't have all day to play with you." Lincoln replied. Brett just rolled his eyes. "Fine. Don't blame me if he gets his ass kicked." he said as he landed. Carter immediately ran in to engage in close quarters combat with him. Brett was not a brawler, so he quickly got out matched. After getting tossed into a tree hard, he gasped in pain. "Stop playing around and take this seriously." he snapped. Brett just stood up and pulled out a rapier from his inventory.
