A security night guard were patrolling the entire area of factory, one of them were at security room, watch through the security camera, two other were went patrol, one of them at the catwalk at somewhere of factory building. The guard were pointing his flash light towards his way, he got his talkie walkie on.
As the guard walk forwards at the catwalk at industrial area, he was surrounded by industrial large pipe and it's cage, as he forwards, he spot a tool box, left opened and nobody was there. He approach the tool box with his flash light pointing at it, as he approach he crouch down and look at. "Who was this tool box belonged to?, why the owner left it here?' he though.
As his left hand were holding the torchlight, his right hand inspect the tool box, but as he touch it, he feel something slimy on it, the guard touch it curiously not comprehended. His right hand now covered by that slimy liquid, he bring his hand closer and smell it, it was stink and smelly, like a rotten meat with bacteria.
Is this saliva?, the guard wave his right hand and wipe it at the handrails, and then his clothe. A soft growl can be heard really clear by him, the guard pause. Who make that sounds?, he heard the soft growl again, it was hard for human to make that sound, but animal, what kind of animal make that sounds?
He then felt a warm breathe were sniffing from his right, his face were covered by sweat, his eye slowly wide, and narrow it to his left side, slowly he turn his head towards to the warm air came, what he witness in front of his eye were give him a great PTSD. In front of him now was a large creature, the face was combination of pig and mole rat, it had bright eye flashing, and looking towards him.
The guard look at the giant creature, this was the largest living thing he saw in his life, he can spot it large body had a armor at his back, and the skin color was pink, and had a very long, thin sharp claw. The creature was huge, like it was 20 m tall, as tall as the where the catwalk was place now, it face were look direct towards him. The guard's hand shaken as he holding the torch light.
But however the humongous creature duck down, and swing it's right arm towards the pillar that support the catwalk, it was 20 feet forwards away from the guard. The pillar that support the catwalk was broken and cause the catwalk path disconnect and it detach from others. It path went down and become a slide.
The guard was shock by the impact, and he was slide down as the catwalk path he stood had lost it support. He slide down and almost fall to the ground which was 20 m to the bottom, but he barely manage to grab the handrails, and he was now depend on it to stay hang at there. The guard look down and then look up.
He saw the beast eye glowing eye were looking at him, the eye actually hurt to stare for to long, without a second, the beast slam it's head towards the catwalk, the sound of metal clanging can be heard, the beast just bending the catwalk path with it's head, like it was a plastic. The guard was had lost it's grip and fall because of the force.
He scream as he fall down, but a mighty jaw with pointed mole rat beak caught him, the guard was got caught up by the edge of the mole rat beak, the force itself was strong enough to kill him, blood dripping from his stomach, as the beak was sharp and can easily cut him, but the beast really careful when it comes to catch a smaller prey.

The beast then rise it head a little as it swallow the man a whole, because it was 20 m now, it can just swallow the guard like nothing, Nosferu, the name of the beast, the same monster that attacked the ambulance and killed Firdaus's father, the one who had battle with Ultraman and cause him to lost it's beak.
But it simply grow back, and the one that killed Maxwell Lord, a new type of breed. Design to be more deadlier than it's previous ancestor. Capable to change it size from 2 m into 135 m tall, and can reach weight into 3t to 130,000t.
The beast then release it's mighty roar, causing the entire area can heard, two other guard heard the mighty roar, what kind of animal make that sounds, or...............space beast?!.......in here, no, no. The guard at the security room, look at his monitor. Dammit he just took a nap for few minutes and unwanted problem just appear.
He quickly lock it's security room and shut off the light. The other guard that try to escape from the factory building that he on patrol, he then heard a growl, but this one was lesser and more like a human growl, in the darkness inside the factory building, there was a light barely shine that allow him to see the person in there.
He then grab his flash light and aim it towards to the sound, he spot a woman, her face was facing other way from him. His body was froze to move, but his mind was curious, for what was the lady doing here, from the look the clothe she wear, she seems like a worker who work here. His make his first step, slowly approach the woman, who just keep facing from other side.
"Uh.....Ma'am" he spoke in low tone, trying not to cause alarm to other unknown, as the guard approach little closer, he pause...................he saw the woman right hand, it had covered some kind of unknown flesh, and the nerve can be see really well, and there was a thin sharp claw. The guard pause there.
As he saw abnormal with the woman, he slowly slid his feet backward, but the woman however turn his head towards him, he saw her eye and face, her face was covered by nerves and her eye remain human, she look like a living corpse. The guard hand was shaken and the torch light that he hold fall to the floor, and he ran. The woman chase him with incredible speed, the guard look back and she was already behind him.
The woman then swing her right hand that had claw towards the guard spine and torn it from him. Her claw was holding his spine and she tore it off from him. The woman growl while her claw still holding the guard spine, the last guard was inside the security room, he try to contact for help but no power.
Someone had cut off the power, and soon his room become dark by sudden. The guard lock the door and hide inside the locker. He keep his breathe down, trying not to make a voice, he heard a footstep at the outside the room, and sudden force the door was smash with brute force, inside the locker, the guard peek through the door, as it had tree line hole.
He saw someone tall, muscular but cover in shadow, the guard heard a growl from the big man, but what make him sweat when he saw him walk inside and towards to locker, the big man now stop and stood really in front of the locker the man was hiding inside.

And then it was silence
Mixorogi was laying on his bed, he had been laying for many hours almost a day. Until today his eyes slowly open, his vision from blur slowly look clear, he was starring at the ceiling, he try to rise up, and feel a slightly pain, probably during to hold from the watch tower blast, he hold his head as he feel little dizzy. "Captain!!?", he turn his around and saw Seo-Yeon were sitting on the chair, at the corner inside his medical room. She look excited seeing him
"S....Seo-Yeon?!" Mizorogi said, "Woah, hang in there captain, take a rest first, you were unconscious" Seo-Yeon said. "W....where are the other?" he ask, "Ivor, Mike and Amelia were at the outside, i call for them" Seo-Yeon said. Mizorogi look at his surrounding, he was inside the patient room, soon the sliding steel door open as it slide to the right, reveal to be his teammate who brought him some souvenir for him.
"Captain, we're glad to see you awake" Mike said. "That blast you hold could give fatal wound even for Man of steel, but it's good to see you again Captain" Ivor said. "How long had i been unconscious?" Mizorogi ask weakly, "A about a day and 3 hours, it's almost 5 P.M" Ivor said. Mizorig try to move.
"Woah captain, you still need to rest" Mike said, Mizorogi lay back on his bed, "Is there any report about space beast attack?" he ask, "No, but we investigate some strange activity, we believe it was cause by space beast, but we don't know yet what type it is" Amelia said. Mizorogi sigh, he knew this would happen. Can't even left even a second.
He lay himself on the bed and close his eye, he try to empty his mind, but at the same time try to track the space beast if what Amelia said was true, "Captain, do you need anything?" Seo-Yeon ask, "I.......i want to cold my mind a little.............you guys can do your work or whatever you want today" Mizorogi said. "Well if anything, just tell to us or anyone okay?" Mike said. But Mizorogi give no respond as he close his eye.
He need some personal peaceful time.
The news about the fake Ultraman had spread wild through every news and across the world, it was confirm the creature was emerge from Lex corpse tower, as they discover underground, they saw a remain laboratory, with several ruin and debris. When this was happen, they realize a man named Lex Luthor had create an abomination the resemble Ultraman and attack the city.
This ultimately ruin his legacy and people from now and forever will remember him as a maniac who hunger for power, but so far there is no trace of him, report state that the abomination had Luthor voice before some being called Brainiac emerge from his belly, even the abomination speak like Luthor. So there is a prove, Lex had become fusion with that thing.
And the last time they saw him when he encounter with Ultraman and they both been teleport by his barrier, until the barrier reappear again, reveal to be only Ultraman who stood stand. So Neither Ultraman had kill Luthor and the abomination or something help them escape which they hope never happen, however some area that space beast had attacked before.
Causing a mass trauma to other, people were often scared to get out from their house especially Gotham, more and more people went missing at the city, consider it was the most corrupted city. Even famous villain at there went missing without trace, despite however it didn't give any good to people at Gotham, Gordon mentioned to Batman, his men were now afraid to patrol on street.
And there is also urban legend now, they said they saw a creature lurking in the shadow, haunting them one by one, and some of the police force suffer PTSD after what they witness.
James Gordon was waiting at his usual place where he always met with Batman, the torch that light up the bat signal was can spot at the dark sky of night. He was drinking his hot coffee which was still fresh. However Gordon can feel someone was watching him, but he can feel who it was. "Don't need to be so mystery, i know you behind there" Gordon said as he took a sip from his coffee.
Behind him, there was someone using a shadow as a disguise, the man walk forwards emerge from the shadow, Batman. He didn't spoke a word as he continue walk forwards, "Long time not see old pal. Gotham's getting quite over and over, none of the crimes were reported today, though there is a little, but had a reason" Gordon said. Batman just starring at him, Gordon took a sip from his coffee.
"Right as always, you want straight to the point, follow me" Gordon said, and Batman follow him from behind and enter inside police office, as Batman walk inside he saw not many police were inside, although he saw some, but their face were gloomy, he even heard there is police officer talk about "the end is coming", "they were all doom". What he heard was haunting, but he was a chill guy and had face even worse.
They went into a room, where there was a glassing window so people outside could see and it was cover by curtain for people at the outside and it was guarded by two police officer, he could heard a man voice who sounds rasping and scare, like he suffer insane PTSD from the outside room, "This was not look good, but we let you see" Gordon said.
As he remove the curtain reveal what inside the room, inside there was a man and he was at the corner, cover himself with his hand and leg, he look fear, and there was a writing on the wall it said, we aren't safe, they are coming for us. Only for suddenly the man lower his guard and look at them at the window,
His face was pale like he saw a ghost, the man suddenly run towards the window, and his hand smash at the window surface, "Trust me, i saw a monster!!" he said, almost crying and he completely lost his mind, "A week ago, we discover him like this" Gordon said, "Anyone else?" Batman ask. "Four companion death, he's the last one" Gordon said, there was a pain and guilt in his voice.
Batman look at him and then look back at them man who was cowling in fear, the space beast attack is getting out of hand, he was aware, how it had effect people, and Luthor case just make it's worse, many country that been attacked by space beast had suffer PTSD eventually, it's just this news was not spread. In France shortly after Pedoleon emerge.
The country was on total lockdown and had limited movement, the government and military had take involve, the street at the country was heavy guarded and under quarantine. Not just France, the whole world. Malaysia had suffer dark history twice, first was Kuala Lumpur and now Penang Island. Despite the city and state had fixed, it was not good for them, the trauma of loses and destruction would forever remain in their memory.
Batman remain his stoic expression, Gotham had change a lot, since the first space beast had appear, it wasn't the same like before, but he hate it, he the how the space beast ruin the place he grew up, the place where his parents pass away, died because they protected him, this need to be stop. Batman then turn and walk away, "I will monitor on Gotham longer from now, keep me update if you or your men saw something" Batman said.
Gordon just fix his glasses position while still holding a mug of his coffee.
Batman were monitoring on the bat computer, try to catch any clue or cases about what happen and non stop appearance of space beast, Batman had planned any counter measure to stop the, but dealing with space beast was not like dealing with super villain, they were unpredictable and sometimes can appear any time, any place, it doesn't matter no if we were tired or injured, they will keep appear.
There are many hidden camera in Gotham and batman hack into many of them, see if he could catch some clue, Alfred came down to the batcave like usual, bring him a pot of tea and biscuit, it had been 3 days and Batman haven't even stop working. "Tea Master Bruce?" Alfred said, "I'm busy" Batman said. But Alfred already pour the tea into a cup for Batman and place it nearby him on the desktop.
It had been three days and Batman still not stop working, Alfred know him better, Batman won't stop until the case or situation is solve. "By my words Master Bruce, when was the last time you sleep?" Alfred ask, "Sunday" Batman said with his stoic expression, now that's got Alfred attention, he look at the dark knight with concern. "But that was 2 days ago, Master Bruce, please you need to rest, staying on work without rest is dangerous" Alfred try to convinced Batman to rest.
But the dark knight was known for his stubborn, "I'm fine" Batman said as he keep looking on the screen, "No you're not Master Bruce, you need to rest, master Tim, miss Barbara and master Gray will help" Alfred said. "No, it's to dangerous, i can't risk them" Batman said as he busy searching for any clue and information.
Each button were tapping by his finger, trying to look at every security camera, still no clue were found. He sigh, for a moment, this was one of the case he became clueless, he be honest even he know the source but how he had to stop it. He then took of his mask hood, reveal his face that wasn't sleeping in 3 days, his eyelids were hanging, his eye were swollen and darker circles under his eyes.
Gosh he look like someone just wake up from death, "My goodness sir!" Alfred said shocking seeing Batman in this condition. Batman rubbing his face in frustrated, he look so tired. But there is one thing he need to research, he tap one of the button on keyboard, and the screen on Bat computer reveal to be Firdaus and his biodata.
"Who is that?" Alfred ask, "Someone that we need to find before something else got him" Bruce (Batman) said. "How did you get his background Information?" Alfred ask, Batman hate to answer this, but when Firdaus was injured and been brought to Watch tower, and since they found the same device that Himeya use to transform. That instantly got Batman attention on the boy. If he was the next Ultraman, perhaps he need to be kept secret.
Batman took a ct scan on his face, and then using his personal satellite to found him using face scan from what he got before. His name, background, all personal data was in Batman's hand, yes he hate to break person personal, but he was desperate. "Master Bruce, what was in the kid that are you searching for?" Alfred ask, "He was Ultraman" Batman said. "B...But i though-" Alfred said.
The butler really known Himeya well, "I wasn't sure to speak about Himeya................but this kid is new Ultraman" Bruce said. "I see.............that explain the blue colour" Alfred said. Bruce stood up from his seat and walk away from Bat computer and up to the lair through stairs.
Alfred quickly approach him as he saw Bruce had lost his step, having not sleep for 3 days was not healthy. But however Bruce was know for his stubborn, he told Alfred he was fine, but still Alfred accompany beside him while they walking up from the stairs towards to mansion.
Mizorogi finally patch himself up and he was now recover, and the first thing he do was meet with his teammates at their meeting room, to ask for any information about space beast recent attack, Amelia report there was a spot of space beast, it was recorded by high school student. It was located at the forest nearby their school before disappear in the fog.
Another report that Amelia give, they spot several death people at meat factory, the company lost over 3.5 million dollar for the damage and plus with the several meat gone and co-worker death and some disappear. Another case they spot human like zombie at Florida, just only in 3 days and this happen.
