Now, she's just as quick to summon some bat-skulls and have them swarm Omega's vision.

Gentaro is confused. "Wait, what?"

Sari's also put the pieces together. "Not anyone you would know, Gentaro, but...long story short, she's a Decepticon named Blackarachnia, who, as you could probably tell, turns into a spider; she also has some nasty venom, the ability to mimic physical traits - although I'm fairly sure that's limited to just other Transformers - aaaaaaaand Grimlock has a thing for her."

Nimona is the one who asks this time. "Wait, what?"

Zakaku looks at his amassed army, and then both he and SCP-1048 gesture for the killer teddies to move to the side and back away from the front gates of the facility. The exo-teddy takes aim with it's rocket launcher...and fires.

They're in.

The army marches in, ready for combat, and soon enough, a few Insitution knights show up.

"Extrauniversals!" The leader of the troop yells out to the approaching army, the knights behind him readying their guns. "You are trespassing on Institution property! Surrender and allow yourselves to be detai-"

Several black tentacles promptly latch onto the knight's face, shortly followed by the teddy bear who the tentacles belong to leaping up and grabbing the knight's head.

"-Oh god it's on my face it's on my FACE-" A powerful shock goes through his entire body, and he falls to the ground significantly more crispy than he was a few seconds ago.

A few moments pass without either side moving. Then the knights open fire, and the teddy bears lunge at them. It quickly becomes a bloodbath, and one that, while starting off in favor of the knights, because lasers can blow off limbs, starts swinging in favor of the anomalous killer teddy bears that have significantly more numbers.

Zakaku walks up to the dead leader. Time to test out this new body...

Because the teddy bear he's currently using as a body is made of something particularly special. Because it was made of something he found among the remains of the ruined Exo-Toa after SCP-1048 had used a good majority of the parts for the exo-teddy.

A piece of shrapnel from his old armor.

Meaning he has access to all his Makuta abilities in this form, seeing as this qualifies as proper Makuta armor...and one of those abilities includes the Shadow Hand.

The leader is grabbed by the shadow hand, condensed into a small enough sphere for Zakaku to handle at his body's current size, and then absorbed. Zakaku grows a few inches, but that's it.

Zakaku looks at himself, a bit disappointed, but looks back to the battle.

Well, good thing he's going to have some more material for absorption soon.

Meanwhile, in another world, Albus is currently carrying a tied up and gagged man, walking alongside Horace in an obscure hallway in Eliza's house

"Yeesh, stop struggling, will ya?" Albus remarks as he opens up a door that, on further inspection, seems to be reinforced with steel. "Not gonna help ya against that thing, anyway."

Then Albus tosses the man in. Horace closes the door and locks it. The two then walk away, ignoring any wriggling of the door - they can't hear any screaming, of course, because that particular room has been recently soundproofed. Took a good amount of time to find some people willing to do the job without asking any questions as long as they got paid, but their boss had her ways.

Then the doorbell rings. Horace looks at the door. "One moment, Albus. I'll handle this."

He goes over and looks through the peephole in the door. "Hmmmm..."

"Who is it?" Eliza walks in. "And, more importantly, did you get the job done?"

"Yes; and it would appear that the robotic girl who was teleported here during that debacle with the reality-warping dragon is here."

Eliza blinks, before smiling. "Oh! A pleasant surprise!"

She's being completely honest, for once. During their brief interaction, Eliza had taken a liking to Jinmay...for some reason she honestly couldn't figure out. Maybe this could give her an opportunity to see what it was.

"Let her in, will you?" Eliza gestures towards the doors.

Horace nods, opening the door. Jinmay stands there for a moment, before rushing up to Eliza and hugging the celebrity tight.

"Well, this wasn't what I expected..." Eliza thinks for a moment, managing to slip out of the hug. "Is something wrong, dear?"

Jinmay looks up. "It's...these past three days, a lot's happened, and I've got a lot on my mind...and I was just thinking...maybe...we could do that bath thing again?"

Jinmay's looking down at the floor and blushing by the time she finishes her sentence.

Eliza looks between her, and then her two bodyguards. "Well? Get the water running."

"As you wish, my lady."

"You got it, boss!"

The two head off, and while they prepare, Eliza just kneels down next to Jinmay and comforts the robotic girl.

Now Eliza will learn what makes this girl tick. What makes her so...appealing. And perhaps catch up on the news a bit. See if there's potential targets she could get without anyone really noticing until long after the deed is done.

The thrill of the hunt is far more engaging than merely drinking from her vast supply, after all.

Airachnid scared off the guards when she arrived. Good for the guards, probably.

Inside the warehouse is a series of glass cases, each with something in them. A USB drive with a ribcage around it and a logo...huh. Airachnid enters the warehouse, looking with mild interest at the glass cases. She wasn't the scientist her sister was, but she wasn't no fool. These were.. Special. She analyzed them carefully.
