Adler did not even realize that his armour suit wielded more strength in comparison to his sister who was armour less. He almost tore her arm off trying to protect her needlessly right now.

"You are going to break her Adler." Beord shouted.You can trace the roots of this content at n0v@lbin

Adler looked at Scarlet who was dangling from his metallic arm like a leaf on a tree branch in the wind. He was shocked that he ended up dropping her ground like a hot potato.

"Aw, that hurt." She complained as she got up from the ground with Carolyn's help.

"Are you okay, sorry, I didn't mean to grab you so hard." Adler apologized and reached his hand out to touch her but then he pulled it back because he was afraid he would hurt her again.

"She has a bruise." Carolyn said.

There was a large red bruise on her fair arm. It was actually as painful as it looked but she did not want Adler drowning in guilt any harder than he already was.

"I am okay." Scarlet responded. "I will heal, let's just keep going."

Adler wanted to insist that they turn back but he noticed the very curious looks on the faces of all his three siblings. He could tell that they wanted to explore the abandoned space ship,Scarlet especially. He sighed and looked at it, hoping that it would bring them no danger.

The space ship was circular in shape and black in color. Its outer surface was glittering as if someone had been polishing it or it had been crafted from the most glistening of materials.

"Who do you think abandoned it?" Beord asked curiously.

"We should take it along with us, we have no space ships on this planet. If Adler can modify it, we won't have to keep begging the transporters for rides off the planet." Carolyn suggested.

"Rope, rope." She shouted as she opened her soul gourd to trap the soul with red eyes and the thickest black smoke she had seen so far.

As she was doing so, her weapon wielding siblings rushed to her side and Beord dragged her behind his body.

"What is it?" Adler asked as he slashed the air.

"Dead body." Scarlet squealed from behind.

"Oh," Adler said and he relaxed.

They looked inside the pod to see a carefully preserved human skeleton. Carolyn and Beord looked at her and shook their heads.

"They are just bones." Carolyn told Scarlet while chuckling. Even Beord was holding his laughter back and pretending to cough.

"I know that." Scarlet retorted angrily, trying so hard to hide her shame. It was not the dead body which frightened her she had seen many dead bodies on earth, most of them in a very terrible condition at that. It was the soul which frightened her.

Her self-appointed guardians relaxed as Adler fussed over her like a mother hen, asking her if she was okay about five times in a row. Then he forced her to stick by his side so that she could touch nothing else in the ship.

"Well there is nothing else here, the rest of the pods are empty. The good news is that they are all fifty mutant beast carriers. "Carolyn announced with joy.

"Let's take them and close the ship. It has been here for years so I am sure nobody will come and steal it when we are gone. We will return for it when she is safely back at home."

Scarlet ignored that comment and her eyes flashed, the grim reaper forum had a section where one could post pictures or videos of plants and animals for identification and trading. Since no one but her could see the forum, she activated the capture feature and started looking around. At this moment, her eyes were basically cameras.
