Dimensional Descent

BOOM.

The situation had just reached a lull. The task force under Liana had entered a rhythm, slowly and systematically taking down one Blood Clone after another, hoping that the next one would have Leonel without.

In the end, Liana realized that it was far too slow, so she separated the group and expanded the task force, even giving them the right to act on their own. The swifter they were, the better, because something told her that Leonel had actually not stopped creating Blood Clones yet. If he created two for every one they found, would this ever end?

However, no one could have expected the first explosion.

Liana stood in a daze, watching an apartment building go up in flames.

It was a brief instant, practically a flash bang that appeared and vanished in the next second.

But as fast as it was, what it left behind was even more devastating...

That being nothing at all.

It was nothing more than a pit in the ground, a well of nothingness, empty air and fluttering strands of dust and debris.

Dead? They were all dead? Just like that?

Sergeant Moe, the task force member that had been about to clear this building, stood in stunned silence. Everyone looked toward the direction of the explosion with solemn faces.

They knew what this meant immediately. Leonel was fighting back again; they just didn't know how he was doing it.

Anyone trusted enough by Liana to work on this task force was in the know about Leonel's origins. They were all still working under the assumption that he was a Fifth Dimensional brat from an Incomplete World that just happened to have some more difficult to deal with abilities.
