The Ultimate Host

As the stranger realized Cross was following him, he started running. " Hey wait a minute!" I just want that book you have in your possession. The stranger didn't even bother to look behind his back. Instead, he reached into his jacket and pulled out a plasma grenade. As he tossed it on the ground, a powerful explosion occurred. The explosion eroded the ground and caused a crater. Cross luckily evaded the crater. He hopped over the crater and leaped in the air so high he leaped over 3 buildings. Cross landed on his feet and tackled the stranger, revealing his face. Cross stood on his feet and realized that the book was on top of his feet. He picked up his book and began shaking his head. Like I said before I just wanted this book." It's for my wife. We've been married for 4 years now.' Four long happy years." The strange was Major Fraser. Major Fraser just picked up the book The Voyage to the Mysterious World of The Dark Sea.

The Voyage to the Mysterious World of the Dark Sea was partially a manual because the mysterious world was real. This is why Sarah wanted the book. Sorry about that but bygones will be bygones won't they?" Cross stuck out his hand to help Fraser up off the ground. Fraser stuck his hand in the satchel around his chest. Inside this satchel was filled with plasma grenades, mines, and an electric whip powered by natural solar energy. Fraser slowly opened the satchel and pulled out a plasma grenade, tossing it straight Cross's face. A powerful explosion occurred. Cross was sent flying into the sky. His entire body lit on fire and the top layer of his clothes was burnt to ashes. Cross smashed into a building that contained metal scraps used to build metal cars and metal toys. Fraser started laughing. The only person who will be reading this book is me." So hands-off." The next time I see your face I won't be hesitant to kill you and I don't mean with words." Fraser was quite the cringy jokester. This was why he didn't have many friends or people who liked to hang around him. He was the definition of a lone wolf and a sad excuse for a person.

Fraser picked up the book and shoved it in his waist, slowly walking off. His heavy shoes were making a lot of noise so this made him a primary easy target for Cross to see. Cross was mad. He wiped the blood from his eyes and leaped over 50 feet into the air. Cross landed on his hands. He would do anything for that book. Honestly, he didn't know why Sarah wanted it. Cross licked his wounds and sighed before taking off his leather belt and ripped it half with his sharp canines. Cross wrapped the two ripped pieces around his fists to make his hits a bit harder. He clenched his fists together and started running. While Cross was running, Rider decided that he had to warn Cross. Cross I must warn you that you've must control your temper." You are becoming quite the hothead over the years. " If you don't control your temper it will be the end of you." Shut the hell up what do you know?" We've been only together nearly 8 years." You don't know much about me." In fact, you know nothing!" So just the f.u.c.k up and stay quiet!" Rider had enough of Cross. Rider took over Cross's body and knocked him out making him fall into his own body.

Cross smashed on the ground. Cross finally got to see how Rider looked. Usually, he only heard his voice. Rider looked exactly like Cross. The only things that were different between Rider and Cross were that Rider's skin was the color of mercury a light murky gray. Rider wore a fashionable suit, had his hair slicked back, and wore golden rings on almost every finger. Rider sat in a chair with his legs crossed drinking white wine. Cross was confused. " What the f.u.c.k is going on?" Where the hell am I?" He looked at Rider and he had a shocked look on his face. Rider looked at Cross and saw that he arrived. Rider tossed the glass to the side and stood on his feet. " I'm getting tired of your shit Cross." I've been putting up with your shit for over 8 years." I've begotten enough. Cross sucked his teeth. I didn't put up with any shit on my home planet and ain't putting up with your shit anymore. Cross started laughing. " Tch. I talk to anybody in any way I want Rider." I don't take shit from anybody either." I understand how you feel." Rider walked up to the bar and poured himself a glass of white wine. He started smiling. But if we have a still problem we can fight right now and settle out our differences." Rider's eyes began twitching.

He hopped over the bar and walked towards Cross. Something that was different than Rider was that he was much taller. He was 10 feet tall. He grabbed Cross by his neck beginning to strangle him. Cross headbutted Rider. The headbutt had no effect whatsoever. Rider started laughing. Really?" Are you serious?" Don't make me laugh more." RIder slammed Rider on the ground. Think of this as training. He started choking Cross with his heavy foot. Cross tossed Rider's foot off his neck and punched Rider in his stomach causing him to crash in the bar and shatter all the glass bottles of liquor. Rider flipped to his feet, beginning to generate a powerful white aura around his body muttering his strange alien language. Even though Cross never was reached the language he didn't care. Just as long as he got the win. Cross lunged towards Rider. As he tried to punch him, Rider disappeared into thin air before Cross's eyes.

Cross landed on his feet wondering what was going on. Suddnely an elbow drove into Cross's chest. His ribs had been cracked and bruised. He vomited up a lot of blood. Cross noticed that the pain was more painful than it originally was. Cross couldn't sense Rider. Rider grabbed Cross from behind and placed him in a headlock. " You have much to learn my friend." Much to learn." Rider could have snapped Cross and ended his life. However, doing this would be killing himself. Instead, he loosened up his grip and tossed him to the side. Cross started coughing up chunks of blood. " What the f.u.c.k is wrong with you?!"
