Thank the freaking Christ that you're not going LEL THEY CAN STAND BEING AROUND ONE ANOTHER THEREFORE HOMOSEX ROMANCE YAAAAY.

Well done so far. I never really thought about it how lonely it must feel to have such powerful and strange abilities. You become a class of your own, others hate or fear you for your power, and you are utterly isolated.

No wonder superheroes and supervillains gravitate towards each other. It's the only peers they have, the only ones who know what it's like to be so different, so powerful, or so crazy.

This is a hundred times better than the earlier version. A true rewrite.
VolcaronaTempora chapter 7 . 6/8/2019
In honor of this game’s big 10 year anniversary, I’ve been reading back over my top ten favorite Prototype fanfics... and it comes to my attention that I never commented on this one. Oops. Well, no time like the present to rectify that.

Listen, I am picky as hell with my Alex Mercer portrayals, and yours has the distinct and grand honor of fighting for first place against the previously uncontested champion. Current status? Tied for first. I like that you’ve given him a colder, more analytical personality than most; it gives off shades of both the amoral scientist he used as a template and the likely dozens more he consumed over the course of the game. Even better, you don’t turn him into a sadistic troll who screws with people for no reason, or make him out to be a perfect, unstoppable biological god. So, yeah, major kudos for keeping him reasonable.

His dynamic with Cole is simultaneously interesting and amusing, and they contrast against each other nicely. In particular, I like the moments where Alex is getting paranoid about him, then we cut to Cole’s POV and he’s blissfully unaware.

Speaking of Cole, not only do you have HIS personality down as well, but I’m glad you gave him an in-story powerup. One of the main issues that show up when you cross these two universes is that there is one hell of a power disparity between the protagonists in terms of agility, durability, raw strength, etc. So it’s nice to have the two of them on much more even terms.

So... yeah. One of my top ten favorites! Looking forward to any further updates :)

Really enjoying this story and I’m excited for the next update
Zou chapter 7 . 12/30/2018
What we have to be aware with the last event that are probably going as except or not as we except.

The circumstance and chemical reaction Alex seem to be, will create something that is either material or not material at all.

Maybe this Something will play a major part in this chapter as… a sort of new antagonist? Maybe.

Something that had create a disturbance, where Alex biomass seem loading and unloading many different form of knowledge, feeling, memory, life experience affecting his own state of mind, more than his physical embodiment.

This coud play an interesting turn that could have many implication.

And that is where my own idea come.

Where all seem completely chaotic and disorganized and unintelligible, into Alex mind.

Everything, every voice, every memory, every emotions and feeling, every last bit of those thing that are now part of Alex mercer, had now dissociate themselves from Alex mercer- their main brain.

How have they done it?

By taking a temporary control other themselves, meaning influencing the Biomass being their main source as they could no longer dissociate themselves from it.

But the fusion of the two element have a major part freeing them Temporary.
Causing this chaos situation.

-Thus allowing THEM, the people who had live once.

-Those who had no more a name or a face.

-Those who will never be remembered and had been lost within the vastness of the mass that is now Alex.
Be it the biomass, the black light, and Alex as a whole being.

-Those faceless shadow lacking of any human appearances, but eyes…

Gain a semblance of control other Alex, which is unstable and temporary.

And also it didn’t mean that they could split themselves from Alex, as it became night impossible from them.

They still identify themselves as the person that is Alex, and the fact that they are also part of the biomass is something to take in count.

While they could not have a power other him, they had done the impossible by taking control,
meaning that those who had die and no longer could live.

Have their own motive, their own goal, something that drive them to pull a fit like that something they should not probably be able.
it show will show their sentient as being a different individuality of multiple memory and live, still living and watching thing through Alex own eyes.

it also show that they still obsevring Alex, why? and How? is still unclear. Do they have a grudge? a vendetta? or are they trying to reform the virus in their own ruthless maner?

base one those question their motive will seem deep enought.

Which only solidify my idea -that they had something they wish to do as the totality they are now. Pushing themsleves to do this reckless action.
Then, if we go with this logic.

It mean one thing with where this logic goes.

They had something they had to settle with the individual know as Alex mercer and as long as they are resting in this grave that is their vastness they repose in.

They. Will. Not. Stop. What they are doing till they succeed.

-But this brought other valuable question.
-What have they against Alex who is them?
-What is the motive that they wish to accomplish? have it something to do with Alex? It is probable.

And mainly

-How Alex have never been aware of this possibility?
The possibility of the people he killed whether they were innocent or not existing within the biomass in another unexplicable way?

-This bring a bigger question , how is it possible for them to exist?
Because they likely are dead and only fragment of memory. They had pass since long, right?

This could bring others multitude question that will not satiate our curiosity till answer in a way, which will help you and us to make this story bigger.

Does people die when they had been absorb by Alex biomass?

-And how dying work in this case then if you had been absorb by a mechanism that is as complex as the Biomass?

-Had they really passed away or are they still continue to exist inside it?
-Or are they dead but still a part of them is stuck in this purgatory?
-If we take the third case, does it mean the soul pass or rest leaving, the spirit stuck inside the biomass?

-Or the soul is stuck inside cut in half while all the other substance are convert into something else?
If this take the third question then.

-How could you be alive and dead in the same time with all those multiple scenario case?
-How complicate it is within the Biomass?
- how does really it work within it?

This black emptiness that had no real limit, no real name, no real end to it.

But it surely had one purpose. a main purpose.

The purpose itself being so frightening that it left me shaken and intrigue to how far this Black mass could go, or how far impossible it wish to go.

This purpose I had describe since the first post about –What is Alex mercer. When I describe the different part he is divide in, and show it in his action and character.

The biomass being one of them as Alex himself and the black light. three different him.

The biomass being a devouring mechanism, the glutton of the three, the one who is to be always on guard even if it could do nothing at all.
It penchant to absorb go with a simple purpose.

Being able to be complete with every last individuality existent alive or not.
To be one. Forever.

The desire of self-expansion to make every last being one, the wish to be beautiful in the dark night that is empty of life with all individuality becoming one.
That is it great purpose that the mechanism doesn’t know at all.

Which make even the biomass a possible enemy in future. Not the one that is in Alex mercer, but the gradual possibility that could be throw in this world.
The What if concept that need. That had the mission to make them aware of, what they had not really perceive.

If he Alex encounter this sort of dangerous mass, a possibility of what he can be in a form of a satellite like the moon thrown in this world for data collection.

This scenario will force all the different faction to put their difference in order to fight something completely unthinkable as i state last time.

Alex seeing this would absolutely question his own self, his action and himself as an individual being.
Like many other character that will question themselves on their own action, if this scenario case occurs.

But our main discussion here is about THEM, this part of the Biomass that is a threat in a way

and Really. How dying work in this case with all those being inside this complex biological mechnism that is the- biomass?

and THEM

What are their motive? What IS their goal? And what they want to do or speak with Alex Mercer?
Zou chapter 7 . 12/29/2018
What we need to understand is that Alex is in a state complex that seem to create a reaction through consumption of new element, new material.

But those factor could not triggered this reaction without the interaction of another element that had permit this result.

This Element in question need to mainly be - inside the Engineer of the biomass mechanism, something that while being part of it. Identify itself as – Alex Mercer.

Which could make thing more interesting and frightening because knowing the answer is within the vastness that is the Black light, the question is.

What inside Alex could have allow to both Material (Yoma, Human of the Claymore world) to enter in contact, while the biomass mechanism was in action,
completely influencing the Biomass in such Degree where it create a chemical explosion and an unstability within the hive?

-Is it sentient? Clearly yes, due to the level it influence the biomass to create something that affected Alex mental state.

-Is it part of Alex? Yes as I state it is -a part of Alex more aware of him than he is of THEM.

Why THEM? That where thing get interesting right now, most of writer tend to bring in their fiction old element like the old foe in the new universe.

Expressing a desire to make thing more common as if it make sense for- hero to have his main villain.

Thinking that it alright to be in this sort of box that we and the author commonly no, that the nature of thing we know should repeat itself many time in many fiction.

And while it is good to create, mix, or any other idea if the idea is.

Not realistic, have a solid view of how the world and life work, lack of control with both thing we need to introduce. Doesn’t make sense.
Well, you need to know that you had failed. Simply like that.

Or most of the time the plot became complicate because of overuse making the story completely lame, boring, and left with many hole. Rendering the old foe
useless to be much of a use.

People tend to repeat it again and again, copyrighting what another fiction did. Because they have no originality, and lack of self-assurance about their skill, or simply afraid.

(But afraid of what? No one die just by making error, no one should be ashamed.
As long as they are aware of their flaw, and wish to be better by hearing what is true and possibly heart. Thing will be alright.)

The thing here is that. NO -old foe need to be use not at the start like that.

It will make this story look like all the backfired fiction with potential left used, they had not even settle themselves or answer the many question left in the dark and introspected all the world and character themselves.

Here we need a temporary foes that will make every person to stop their different in order to fight a threat bigger.

We need threat that appear to make every participant even the objects to be of use, and make the story more filled and alive.

We need fresh blood that seem not going out of the familiarity. Something new but not entirely out of our knowledge. Of course always it is not permanent.

A new thing, character, news peoples.

Some of story with potential could not demark themselves due to this lack of understanding in the creation of the Oc,
Or new sample in their story that need a solid background,

Without a reasonable story that either make us empathized or understand the new character to the point we could not deny them.

Their story fall fast because of the lack of sense and the fact that there is no logic or something that seem realistic and common in society or human daily struggle to live.

Sometime in the review they do not hear the objective review that had been post or it lack of it.

So if we go back in the subject.

Our new character had nothing to do with Alex old foe but more with his own personality the difference between him and his own biology as a person.

That why I said they are more aware of him than he is aware of THEM.

If THEM in majuscule is not enough in order to precise ‘who’ or ‘what’ were are talking about, the last explanation does. And if it not enough to make some have a clue.

I will go deeper in my explanation.
Zou chapter 7 . 12/27/2018
A completely broken Alex Mercer. A left somewhere, unable to defend himself

He had been pulled somewhere by Cole, who had kick him to save Clare from Alex and Alex of the imminent danger he is, for now.

In his state of mind Mercer will probably try to ask himself those sort of question- what is happening? Where he is?

But being in a state where being who and knowing who he is, it seem to be a difficult task,

But one thing was sure, it is that at this stage were everything seem to take different turn and Alex Mercer seem to find himself in a difficult situation,

A situation where he is filled by different information completely hard to grasp, due to the speed of the thoughts and voices travel within his mind,
Their knowledge and information being unpacked and load in his mind seem so disordered, that it hard to decipher.

The question that will pass our mind even Alex own, is.

What had created such condition?

Again, none of us know it.

To-eating the chief, to the chain reaction creating an explosion which cause the front Door to be destroyed, leaving cloud, a hole, dust and ruble of it remain.

Any person present at the moment of explosion inside the room or near it, would have died. But not those away, or those with physical endurance to resist the damage.

So what had created such condition?

The theory will probably be about Alex consuming new material of another origin, material who biological composite are still unknown.

Which would probably remind us of the specific new organism he had recorded in himself.

Being in a new world, he had not really take time to really analyze the new organism add to his biomass. Their origin, composite and what could be the possible result on his biomass.

It had to be noted that, those new organism seem Alien in nature.

If you take it more seriously. You will find that being in another world mean that in a way the rules of the world and nature can possibly became more different or totally altered.

To the point where Alien environment could be dangerous.

Because new environment could possibly mean new anomaly that get out of control, an opposition the usual thing we saw daily.

The more simple example who could illustrate the case could be taken with adventurer or exploratory who had mainly travel and explore new continent, other country, nation and exotic land by navigating the world with their ship.

What they do find in their exploration was actually baffling. New field, new animal species, new type of environment, with a complete different fauna and flora.
All was new.

And mainly the new type man, with different skin’s color, physical form and shape. Different culture and languages. Different belief and way to life in society and nature itself.

And those exploratory, being in this new land with all this change, they could be affected in a way they had not been see, understand or explain.
Being in a new area, with different, geography, climate, and environment and gravitation center could change them both inside and outside with those new element being include.

Like being in contact with a new climate could affect their physical form. Like the color of their skin. Their hair, their eyes. Or the mental seeing a new open field, new culture.
Contracting, A new type of illness, new decease due to eating something that create a bad reaction, or change the way our metabolism work.

Like the -Black Death in the European medieval era for example, which had killed more than half of the population on the whole continent a prowess beyond mass genocide. ( wow nice record, it kill people who most of their time have no meaning in life or try to survive- Black Death you make your own legend)

The medical treatment and attention of this era while not bad was poor due to the lack of knownledge and intrument, the medical field of this era could not even hope to achieve minimal task against most basic illness of these days that are now so easy to cure in our era.

Those example could be refer with Alex by example. When he try absorbing different material.

He had eat a Yoma but any indication had shown that it is the Yoma that had such an impact on his metabolism or whatever function his biomass mechanism did work.

But if we remember.

The last person eaten had basically something with that. The chief who was -a human being.

But what sort of human being? A question that could be very interesting.

Because as we know, read and imagine (sorry we can’t see It. Ok, It only in our mind it work) Alex had eaten a human being of this world and era.
Such thing had a great consequences on him. Which result to an explosion that destroy the front door…

Then- the great disorder he find himself in.

So eating the chief might be the possible result of all this chemistry and the reaction could be greatly impossible to predict.

Alex eating the chief is the probable answer. Maybe, but the probability is slim.

What if it was a combination of both material?

The mixt of those two element had cause a rejection because Yoma and human doesn’t mixt at all.

In the Claymore series, we knew of the experiment on human body through the use of Yoma essence. Both essence not appreciating the other presence and trying to influence the other one.

Every of those experiment had result to another species different but similar to Yoma.

The Claymore being the first example.

While struggling to stay in balance between the two essences, they succumbed in the Yoma side, which In turn give birth to another species.

-The Awakened being…who in nature are completely separated species to Claymore and Yoma. The result of such being is the human biology turning into it via the implant of Yoma composite in human body.

The two essence trying to reject each other, and trying to find a peaceful ground with each other, in the same occasion resulting in a complex chaos while the two element -are being exposed to each other .

It is either- One will always try to erase the other or the two becoming something MORE.

The Yoma biology and the human biology of this world, had probably enter in contact inside the biomass mechanism while completely being turn into something else,

Something that is completely out of all thing the character could predict, and us.

Which is intriguing…

however, we all have our own theory of what had cause this. Each of us different in a way.

But what next? what will happen? Or what is happening?
Zou chapter 7 . 12/21/2018
explanation of possible outcome 2nd part

Where will they fight? A forest filled with tree or dead trunk? An open field that is run by green grass? What could possibly be the perfect scenery for this fight that will ensue in that mountain which is not likely.

How long will it take? 5 to 10 minute of superhuman prowess or more, considering that even the biggest fight do not take a very long time.

We know eventually that there will be an outcome of the fight, Cole will probably won his fight against Clare.

How? I don’t know.

Also knowing that Cole have electric power and that he could control, polarity, electric field, magnetism, magnetic field, construction and manipulation of matter -to it change of property and it form, electro-magnetism and electro-magnetic force, attraction and repulsion, climatic manipulation and much more in his arsenal.
Not only that, he could also use ice power.

He could use it in many application as his electric power, he could freeze people, from direct or maybe indirect contact, he could use it as projectile in fight, he could use to ease his Mobility and transportation.

And could manipulate it to an environmental level. It is still unclear what the limitation of this power he had been granted, are however.

Because of his ingenuity and creativity, Cole had Always been able to invent and constructed many new way to exploit his electric ability to an unimaginable level that defy logic, and the physical law.

He had invent attack that could helped, to created or destroyed, but all of those ability had helped to save the days.
It is those thing which grant Cole Ability an insane potential without end.

As long as he could think of a way to make himself or his power of use, as long as he believe it is possible. His own consciousness and subconscious which is reflected by his power will react to his desire. And enable him to do something, seemingly state as impossible.

What had made me love him in the game was always this pure sense of doing thing right, this genuine intuitive mind he had with his electric power and his growing potential.

The nature of his power are in human sense destructive, seemingly impossible to stop by human logic.

But Cole since he gain that power, had proven on contrary the nature of his power and show how more of a use his power could be.
That his electric power could help to protect and save in both game.

It is like he and is power are in a symbioses, which make it look like his power is alive and it is, in the subconscious level.
Because as long as Cole is alive.

It will live through his will.

And now he had huge boost, and it should be not that while he had all this boost you seem to make Cole copying some of Alex original move which is not something too right according the step you take.

He could not have the same ability collect of information from other like Alex not in the same process at least nor could he achieve the same degree of physical prowess.

You tend to make them have the same similar sensation and feeling. Like with them having weird sensation of fear with Clare. And Clare doing the same.
While the idea of having a sort of connection his good you make it too obvious.

This is one thing you should be wary of, not only that but if doing so. You will make both character lacking of their own authentic background.

They should still use what they have as power and make it grow stronger. If you do a mixing earlier and a permanent one you will make the story lose it interest.

Mixing power at a start or the middle is and will never and well.

And their fear of Clare and the extension it imply is too obvious to give away what had transpired in the orignal timeline. ( this timeline had already diverged from the original since those two element had been pull in)

By showing too much of what is the extent of this world power, Which put Teresa on top at the end of chain by the series making her non dispute so call goddess without giving any window or consideration to how totally empty this seem, the series was left without any other continuation.

And the power they had are not reach monstrous and ridiculous level, maybe in the destructive pattern, yes. They are deadly being this is true but their total potential had not been fully use.

The original author was just trying to find a suitable end, by killing a bunch of character who had more interesting personality and background but lack of interaction and scene in the story.

He had killed a lot who are biologically modify beings like Isley, chronos, Octavia, Rigaldo and more. While most had done questionable action, they never did truly had any true ill intent for destruction or annihilation.

They were not harmless...

They have no true Evil ambition or intention, only struggling to live their life.

Their flawed was not even something they decided to live with, like eating human gut. It is the natural desire like most biological being that need to supply themselves.

We human eat and more than plants, we eat each other and all the other species, like all the other species eating themselves and every other species. And plant do you think them innocent and harmful organism?

It a law we all work within. It is just a question of morale, principle, desire, belief and choice according to those we choose our path.

He thought it to be detrimental to let them live, maybe because of how some will still take another turn like Isley mostly because of his ambition.

Or the author want a rapid end of this series with no real finality but the lack of patience to developed his manga is still there also. Because the manga while having an end, had leave many windows that he left unclosed, the Asahkaram being the first example.

Now back to Cole and Clare.

With the experience he had gain, and all the weird thing he had encounter, he seemingly had the advantage to this Clare who had the training and patience in fight but whose mind is narrow to the concept of-outside the box she had been for a long time.

But what next?

If Cole win or is able to incapacitate her without hurting her.
(Which will be a beneficial plus that will make Clare question herself about this unusual motive from a assuming them to be monster in the first glance on the gory sight).

Will he go or run away from her if the fight escalated to a point where he know thing will get ugly, knowing his lack of control on his monstrous boost of power that might endanger Clare?

Or will he demand some answer or information to his newly capture captivate if he is able to incapacitate Clare? (Which is more possible)
-Or will he take it forcibly? (Not a good thing or best thing to do, she will see this ability and reported and this could be detrimental to a companionship)

The former seem more of a dangerous possibility leading to a dangerous start, the latter maybe fitting.

But there still one case that both Clare and Cole will forget.

They will be so much focus on their own agenda during their fight, that they will forget about one major detail.

A completely broken Alex Mercer. A left somewhere.
Zou chapter 7 . 12/16/2018
Explanation of possible outcome-Part 1.

This is my idea concerning the outcome of the last chapter.
But first, it is probably important to remind what had happened.

The chapter was not long. However it seem probably one of the most chaotic, enigmatic and weird,

And yet many interesting things had occurs.

In the last chapter two things had occur which had taken our attention.

-The first being Alex mental break down. For no reason after spraying the village chief in his own blood. And then…

- Everything goes completely out of control for Alex.
-Everything go down to a chaotic mess, all the voices, all the suggestions, the languages, all emotions, all the thought, all the knowledge of his world, all the current information of his skills and how he kill and get kill by reviewing his victim memory.

-Every torment, pain, death
-Everything that was not HIS.
Yet everything that was HIS.

Seems to be completely freed.

Free from their jail, free from their shell. Free to express themselves.
A Throne of eyes

Alex was in a sort of state completely pure, clean and white. He was in a place neither death nor life could pester him.

He was neither tired, nor full. But also he was both tired and full.
He was at peace THERE…but the chaos remain. It remain Beyond a boundary that any of us could explain.

Pure agony to pure released of EVERYTHING until NOTHING is left.

But why? Why now? What had happened? What had cause this strange phenomenon?
And what could it do?

And more importantly, what will occurs for those 24 hour our protagonist are led into?

Those are truly question that were in my mind and I was forced to make my pause around my little date about what I know about Mercer and the comparison of his skill with the others.

Only to discuss about this, the possible outcome

-Now the second thing that had occurs and seem important Cole McGrath situation his encounter with his first claymore, and a suppose outburst of paranoia coming from is new -UNIQUE partner in crime Alex mercer.
Who had made a grave mistake by killing the village chief, which would not go without consequences, right?

-First consequence being the people of the village wanting reparation from the act which would spread rumors about them, concerning murder they will assume because no one was there.

Murder in this sort era is bane and punish by torture and death sentence. With this act Alex had done they will attract many people. Be it force of order, mercenary,
and robbers.

The organization ears. And the forces of nature (Abyssal one) that will discard them at first.

They will probably have a bounty on their head. But this is not the case right now.
And the woman, who is probably the chief daughter and that we don’t know yet.
what will be of her? A vendetta against Alex or following Alex everywhere he go like Clare back then.

Thanks, Alex. That was the smartest thing you have ever done.

Not only that, but their first encounter with a claymore will leave a bad taste in the organization opinion, and this will attract this said organization to capture or kill them.

Good perfect. New taste subject. And more beautiful yet deadly women at their tail. Again Alex thanks.

Clare (Number 47) being their agent in the field will report dutifully if things go badly, and it already too late because things are not good for them.

She witness something that is completely out common with them, the fact that one eat will force her to assume that they are not human and maybe Yoma.

Also Because of their seemingly abnormal ability- Cole being the first good example, by engaging a claymore in combat, with an unexpected physical prowess surpassing human Ability, Will be something completely knew.

What, was hilarious is that Clare assume that Cole is the most dangerous of the two.

She had it wrong, but she is not far from the true, but right now yes Alex is the most dangerous.

An Apex predator, she had dismiss. Without knowing who was the big threat.

Engaging Cole directly. (Which is Good, giving Alex the element of surprise.)
The combat was truly, reasonable, not a trashing or something along the line -the more powerful series tarnish and insult the other series competence and skill.
(Like all the clueless author did, because of their lack of maturity and patience. Preferring writing before analyzing.)

But now, Cole seem in difficult position, not being able to fight properly against Clare, with her weapon that seem disturbingly sharp.

Sharp enough to cut COLE PRECIOUS AMP?! God, the symbol had been broken!

I had almost a heart attack when she did it with a gracious ease.

(But this could be repair easily by our black smith Alex Mercer that could upgrade it even more, Cole Also could do it by manipulating the matter of the said object.
But Alex could make big upgrade of the weapon. Making it more and more efficient in quarter, long and short combat, this is what make the difference. But he will repair it first, and upgrade in the future.

He had science and his natural biological body as a weapon.

Cole had electron on his command, giving edge against everything made of iron and basically all organism biological or not by electrocuting them, drying them till death. He is basically the embodiment the natural phenomenon itself

But also it could be -a possible weak point not as dangerous as water.

He had leader charisma, which give possibility to take and give action, reformed the people from the wrong path. He had academic knowledge that surpass many of this land, even some aristocrat or bourgeois

And could probably be a teacher in a way but he had not finish his university.
He is a good courier. Giving him a great parckour skill

Ok let stop this nonsense before I go too overboard.)

Cole having no choice but going to another area. Why?

This is where my idea come.

What is going to happen will probably be a huge fight that will not be very long. But devastating.

If you had remark Cole decide to go outside, which mean one thing.
The battle in the area they were, was not accommodate from him to fight properly.

- First there was two people Alex ( who he kick somewhere) and the woman (which could be the chief daughter), because he had always take good action which had let him take the good side permanently, and became a great man.

-Second because he want to unleash his power and could not us it in such area. Meaning that Clare had sufficient advantage.
Good swordplay, better weapon, good intellect, fast precise and deadly. And the lack of space, play a great advantage in the fight.
The area playing in her favor without her knowing.

But now (I am exited! Cole going all out, and there will be big surprise from Clare.), with the change of scene, thing will go to Cole side because he will use the environment to his advantage.

Allowing him to displace himself faster, moving more freely for more DAMAGE.

Allowing him to do what he is good at with the help of his knew boost of power.
This will be like back home, by using is power to navigate faster, using height, the environment, and all the object that he could find for offence and defense. To throw, lift and protect other or himself with.

Clare will be in trouble, but that doesn’t mean she will not fight back. She will, it will be difficult but she will.

Once she take a good grasp she can adapt, but she will lose. She hadn’t nothing to detect his energy because Cole don’t use Yoki at all, a big disadvantage.
She had no information of his capability like him not knowing her capability.
She might maybe really make a mistake following him.

And also being electrocute will hurt, some of Cole voltage are deadly and being made of bone and flesh play to her disadvantage. His attack might paralyzed her temporarily or indefinitely and some might dry her or kill her.

Also Cole not being able to completely control his new Ability and physical prowess is more than dangerous for her. He might try some of his basic lighting arsenal, believing that they would do only minimal damage.

Only to do BIG DAMAGE. also Environmental DAMAGE.

It will be like back then, when he first got his power, or when he was force to master his power to a great degree to fight the beast.

It will be, a new discovery all over again. We don’t know which electric attack, power or moved are less dangerous, or more difficult to control.
This will probably result big, no immense damage, which will make Clare think twice before attacking.

And yeah Alex is dangerous, but Cole is a resourceful force not to joke with.

Comparing them might be difficult but as I said Alex is as he call on the top for the moment.

In both case, we know that he is the one who will help and train Cole to control his Power. Until he can defend himself properly.

Now this is where thing will get more interesting.

What next?

( Ps for future reference, you had to read
-shinji and the Doctor by Machiavelli .

an interesting crossover about Evangelion and Doctor who. You need to read absolutely One of the few who had awaken me. Not long, with simple word and one fiction that push your curiosity.
also

-Hikkigaya hachiman is different by 3213.

At least chapter one. One of the most funny fiction, I read until it became dark. Taking an unexpected turn.

A fiction, too long, really self-centered with first pov which I had not appreciate there ( I hate fist pov, too self-centered) but once you read one chapter,

it too late to stop. A big surprise for me who judge first changing my point of view about them)
Zou chapter 7 . 12/14/2018
Remake, advice, and details.

So I suppose I will REMAKE my own little text from the others days now and polish it to make it more readable for now.

To their own little challenge, and their suppose alliance which seem pretty much unstable after Alex little outburst.

Leading to the -3 last chapter introducing the main protagonist Cole and Alex to a Claymore, after Alex pulled a Zeke on Cole. OUCH!

The Claymore in Question who is Clare,

she probably enter only to see a Gory scene far more disturbing than being eaten by a cannibal like the Yoma.
And that is being absorb by a black mass that pulled you within in while you are being ripped in shred leaving some blood, screaming helplessly.

no it was more like she arrive on a scene crime later after the explosion, where our hoodie man Alex kill the leader of a village.

Village I must reminded is still-UNKNOWN.

But I should give details before even going far in my own idea of the scenario.

First being, the lack of structure on the non-identify village you pulled,
was it created or did it exist in the map of the world?

If you create it, it is truly a great pro-active action on your part, that will improved you author skill.
Many new add element are good thing to create more location like that in the map or object. It is a good thing I support.

But all good thing need to be thoughtfully think before putting them as new element in the story, which could possibly jeopardize the story and make it less interesting, original, and alive-if you prefer authentic.

But there is still lacks - if it is a create village you original designated.

- The village had no name, preferring to call it -UNKNOW for is expendability and the lack of interest in your part.
- No real location in the map, in fact which quadrant it is? and from which popular village in the map you place it near?

-what is accurate number of it habitant and the type of trade they do?
-what are the different activity they do in order to gain their life?

-how work is divided between gender, i mean women do and ar forbidden and what men do and ar course this part is not something you should look for now but for latter when you will enter in the flaw of this medieval society.

And the tiny if not big understanding of the social norm and life with this village.

Is there monument or special ancient artefact that would be of help in later, far FAR later in the story progression?

-The village itself lack of an accurate architectural structure, which left us in the shadow.
-there is a lack of identify perimeter, we don’t how long, big is the village,

-How far it extend itself, or if the village is a full open from all view? what protect it from any intruder? Had it wall to protect itself?
-What is the structure of it wall? Is the wall made of wood, rocky, iron or hardened steel? or is it within a cave or a mountain that serve as protection.

If it has no wall then does it is covered by a forest, or a wood, or circle by water, does it have a clear path to reach it destination?
Mainly did the have a big water supply, like a river, a lake or any type of water source that pass through the village.

You had prefer letting the story continue, being more focus in the plot,
which is truly not bad at all, it totally good because I followed it and I am more focus on any little detail left.

And later in the progression of your skill, you will be add as new material.

To some point it preferable to say that, everything is all right in the story and nothing seem bad.

But still, some detail need to be analyses in this part to see if, yes or no they are essential or detrimental to the story.

Does giving such detail in a simply way without entering too much in the aspect would make the story advanced?

Only your decision will tell, you enough thoughtful in my point of view.

More than before it, is good that you remade this story at least three time.
each of them totally different and not similar it is a good thing, i like when there is change while sticking with the plot, it show your personal determination to be- iron made in your determination.

maybe a fourth. will soon be born diverging again of the path.

It will gave you an accurate view of your skill through time and how well you had grown since.
And Do not forget that, the simpler your story is, the more it will attract the weakest reader who could barely keep up with big word in English at all.

But do not be confused the simplicity of wording, and how a paragraph need to be written,
Or the writing style you used to make your wording more beautiful in order to attract the eyes...

All this are separated things that sometime get us all confused.

But back at my ideal scenario for the next arc
Zou chapter 7 . 12/13/2018
I must apologies for the last part of my review after my explanation about Alex natural speed and his possible upgrade.

where I hope my inside joke was at least understandable but only the sharp eyes will understand.

i wish talk about the multiple situation that could be misunderstand about Alex unexplained fear against Clare.

Who power, right now is low to even consider matching there own or even able to consider hurting them as now, she is not ready.

Of course I will not denied that she is an experiment fighter with a remarkable intellect.

she had prove it more than once in the serie. But she still lack of controll and technique, wich have been shown in all her confrontation against strong foe.

- her first Awakaned being commonly know by the public as voracious eater, and the second with a hunting party the Helen Miria and Deneve.

- the Ophelia incident, being confrote to realty of her death and her own weakness. and also her determination to survive.

-the confrontation with dauf of the male Era and the fourth claymore of his generation , one of the strong awakended and the less to use intelect for his natural brute force. where she improved her control with her amazing quick sword

-and rigaldo the silver lion king. where she shown a willigness to grow strang Half Awakening her Limb, and admirable ruthless and reckless tatic yet amazing and brilliant. she did a great sacrifice for power but she almost Awakened.

i must remind that in most of these fight she nearly Awakened and sure would have been if some occurence have not save her many time. her lack of calm and controll put her in some dangerous situation.

while she is a wild card in this story.

she is not able to match them in some department.

i mean Cole will likely be in dificulty, only because like her, he want to understand how to figth his oppenent in order to get better ubderstanding to how to fight much like Kurosaki Ichigo ( bleach) and in many of his fight he always show this nature in his strategie.

so he stick with the attitude

but he seem not to understand the Claymore, all about them and their rank and speciality.

but do you think it will stop Cole?

unlike Alex he will not try a direct hurt to kill ot incapacitate, he will try to understand. before unleashing his electric power, who will ease the fight totally and changed the done.

one Electric discharge with his new level shoul be frightening, because of his lack of total control, this will freeze her due to the voltage level and of course her lack of undesrtanding,

of course Clare did grow strong in the serie but it only after time skip she could be consider more than a fight.

that could not be take easily,

but clare in her current state against Alex or Cole who seem reluctant in their previous fight will put a brillant fight that seem to be showed but she iwill be surprise.

i fear that yes what she had inside her and will not give a clue is a power truly strong for them to react but not until the end.

and i thinh that you shoul not have takne that lenght to make it obvious, too much obvious.

this story seem not to take a easy end as Marvel or Dc unverse characters or some of the manga-verse greatest champions.

now, in the subject

I read my last review and I saw many, many uncomfortable words that seem less presentable and comprehensible.
So here I will redirect the shoot.

What I wish to discuss in the last post, was my own view of how the scenario will turn out and the maybe what if.

in order to make the story and everyone in the story more aware of their current condition.

Of course, the Madness, enigma, and revelation that will ensue.

that should and must be present in the whole story as it center core, considering this could be an amalgamation between movies, videogames scenario, manga, comics, book, which I must litteraly give you on direct advice.

( -Read these things or if you had your own idea in order to completely follow your own timeline, respecting the canon a bit and completely going somewhere Where… even the autor left many hole to exploit to your advantage. if you had see many as i

Then do it.

-You should also began to make your own team, with people following your cause and giving you idea that will not go far to destroy the story.
You really need people.

For now focus on the many what if scenario completely discarding what claymore story say, while having all data information about everything, I mean EVERYTHING.)

Every character, if not all of them be it in claymore or Cole and Alex...

need to know tha their conception of this world is not around what they except.

only element of surprise will wait them. From both worlds or even other worlds that could be in constant contact with this world.

Entering some element for just a breath moment or longer, in order to make the chaos more even.
In which case they will probably be aware.

I mean after two of them being unpredictably brought from their own fate to be place in a world completely new. To challenge it conception about humanity.

Many things have to be done, be it psychologically, the mystery, the drama, the enigma and in the romance.

So I suppose I will REMAKE my own little text from the others days now and polish it to make it more readable for now.

which i must say i had not achieve much, i need to be faster in order to bring out all that should and should not... of WHAT i think is right, not true.
