Martin ground his teeth against the voice in his head. The girl next to him tensed. She was uncomfortable, Martin wondered only distantly what it felt like to be her, to feel everything. But he dismissed the curiousity with a flick of his mind.
The beast was resisting. Martin smiled. It was resisting. This was a stupid idea. The creature was so close. The girl could feel it, he could see the darkness in her eyes like a dim echo. Martin laughed inside. The Regus would die for his foolishness - his bravado. Stupid man.
The girl raised her sword and Martin stepped between her and the Ijiraq and the Regus. He whispered, "No. Not yet."
He would let her determine his reason. But Martin wanted to see what the creature would do. If she acted now it could vanish and their secret weapon would have been wasted. Martin wanted to be proven right. But if the Regus succeeded in the end they would have a new weapon against gods. It was just a shame the Regus was short sighted and didn't declare his hand with plenty of time to test it out. This embarrassment could have been prevented.
