monster verse:Gene Evolution

The Indominous Rex roared triumphantly, standing over the broken corpses of the last two raptors, its alabaster scales stained with blood. Only Blue remained, circling the towering hybrid with fierce loyalty but undeniable exhaustion. She snapped and darted, drawing blood — but it wasn't enough. Even Owen had nearly run out of ammo, sweat pouring down his face as he fired one last shot that pinged uselessly off the I-Rex's hide.

Then, the world fell quiet.

A new sound broke through the chaos.

Thud...

Thud...

THUD.

The ground vibrated beneath their feet. Claire froze mid-run, glancing back. Owen paused in reloading. Blue stopped, panting heavily.

The Indominous Rex turned, its slit eyes narrowing.

Emerging from the smoke and fire of the fallen jungle trees was something out of nightmares.

Thirteen meters tall at the shoulder.

Obsidian-black overlapping scales shimmered with a dull luster.

Spikes ran like jagged ridges down its back to the tip of a whip-like, bladed tail, the length of which stretched a monstrous 20.3 meters.

Its mouth was a yawning cavern lined with razor-sharp teeth, its skull streamlined, its external lizard-like eyes glowing with a cold, calculated intelligence. It rose upright on its four limbs, its massive forearms fully opposable, claws flexing.

It was Project X.

It was Alex.

Claire, now breathless, dove aside into the underbrush, narrowly avoiding being trampled as the towering hybrid broke into a bipedal sprint, charging like a demon let loose from hell.

The Indominous Rex backed a step, nostrils flaring as it processed the approaching threat.

Owen dragged Gray and Zach behind a fallen security vehicle, eyes wide as he watched the impossible unfold.

Because now, for the first time…

The predator had a challenger.

And a brutal fight was about to start.

Chapter: Predator vs Predator

Alex's POV

I sized up the Indominous Rex as it bellowed a defiant roar, baring its jagged teeth and thrashing its tail. It was posturing — reading me, the same way I was reading it. I may have had the size advantage, but this thing had experience. It was a predator bred for war.

Unlike it, I had only recently gained limbs. My body still itched with phantom coils, my mind adjusting to these strange, powerful legs. And my tail… it wasn't just an extension of my body anymore. It was a weapon, and I had to control it like one.

I couldn't afford a prolonged fight — not with the Mosasaur lurking somewhere in the depths, waiting to steal my kill like it did in the movie. That would mean losing precious Evolution Points. No. I needed to end this fast.

The I-Rex lunged, maw gaping wide, aiming straight for my throat — predictable.

I went low, ducking beneath its charge and slipping between its legs. My front claws dug into the cracked concrete, and with all my strength, I surged upward. My spinal spikes rammed into its chest, tearing into flesh and armor.

The beast let out a strangled snarl as I lifted it off the ground — then slammed it down, hard. The ground shuddered beneath us. Concrete fractured. Glass shattered.

But it recovered fast.

While still on its back, it lashed out — two powerful hind legs slammed into my face, knocking me backward. I was hurled across the plaza and crashed straight into the side of a building. Metal screeched. Concrete exploded.

I almost flattened someone.

"Owen, it's coming down!" a voice shouted.

"Move!" Owen barked at the kids as the structure groaned overhead.

The Indominous didn't let up.

It rushed me while I was down, sinking its teeth into my neck, dragging me across the ground like a ragdoll. My armor cracked. Pain flared hot across my nerves.

I snarled, blood dripping down my hide — and retaliated.

With a roar, I raked my claws across its throat, drawing a spray of blood that made it screech and recoil, releasing me from its jaws. We both staggered back, bloodied, panting, circling.

Yeah, it cracked my armor — but it didn't break me.

My tail flexed behind me, blade gleaming.

Round two.

I roared — loud, furious, primal — and charged straight in.

---

The Indominous Rex snarled and charged — this time, its massive head lowered, clearly aiming to ram Alex full-force like a living battering ram.

Alex didn't flinch.

He responded in kind, lowering his head and thundering forward. The ground trembled beneath their combined weight. Then —

BANG!

The impact echoed across the plaza like a bomb.

But Alex had a secret weapon: the spikes lining his skull. The moment of impact drove them deep into the I-Rex's hide, stabbing through scales and into muscle. The Indominous screeched and staggered back, clawing wildly at its own face in pain.

One of Alex's spikes had snapped off, embedded in its skull.

He didn't give it time to recover.

With a snarl, Alex surged forward, his obsidian-plated body slamming into the wounded I-Rex, sending it skidding across the plaza toward the edge of the Mosasaur lagoon. The electric fencing cracked and sparked as the dinosaur's body collided with it.

And then — Alex leapt, landing squarely atop his enemy. Without hesitation, he lunged and clamped his jaws onto the Indominous' throat, his serrated teeth tearing through flesh and cartilage. With a sickening rip, he tore out a chunk of its neck.

The mighty Indominous Rex shuddered — and collapsed, gurgling.

Ding!

Alex barely had time to process the notification.

Suddenly —

WHOOSH!

The lagoon erupted like a geyser.

From the depths, the Mosasaur launched upward, jaws wide — and clamped onto Alex's throat, dragging him off the dead Indominous and yanking him into the water with terrifying force.

SPLASH!

Water exploded in every direction, waves crashing against the walls of the plaza.

From the sidelines, Claire, Owen, Zach, and Gray watched in stunned silence — their savior, the monstrous armored serpent, had been ripped away in an instant.

The waters stilled.

Nothing surfaced.

Only silence remained.

-

The water was cold. Deep. Unforgiving.

Alex twisted violently as the Mosasaur dragged him further into the abyss. Despite being able to hold his breath for over thirty minutes, he knew this was not his domain. The Mosasaur's element was water, and it moved through it with terrifying grace. Alex, meanwhile, was a terrestrial beast — and for the first time, he missed his old serpentine form.

The Mosasaur's jaws had bypassed his obsidian scales and sunk deep into the soft tissue of his neck, locking in with bone-crushing pressure. Blood bloomed in the water.

Panic surged.

Then Alex remembered:

He had a tail. A weapon.

Snapping it around with force, he drove the spiked blade into the Mosasaur's underbelly — once, twice, three times — each strike puncturing deep and spilling clouds of crimson into the water. The Mosasaur finally let go, roaring bubbles into the depths.

But Alex wasn't done.

As it turned to flee, he lunged forward and clamped his jaws around its rear fins, tearing into flesh and ripping one off. The Mosasaur twisted violently, pain making it snap into a frenzy. Then, it charged — mouth open wide again.

Alex had no choice.

To protect his vital neck, he offered his front leg.

CRUNCH.

Bone shattered.

It clamped down, dragging him deeper. Pain exploded through his nerves, but Alex gritted his teeth. He wrapped his remaining limbs tightly around its underside and dug in with his claws.

Then came the kill.

His tail arched, and with one powerful thrust, it punctured the Mosasaur's spine.

The beast went still — paralyzed.

But its jaws remained locked.

Alex had only one choice left.

He yanked his own leg free.

The shredded limb tore from the Mosasaur's mouth, trailing blood. Then, with one final surge of fury, Alex bit down on its skull, crunching through the thick bone, shaking violently until…

CRACK.

The Mosasaur went limp.

Ding!

Mosasaur genetic material detected: Integrate?

"Yes." Alex answered inwardly, gasping mentally through the pain.

He felt the shift immediately.

His lungs expanded, his chest widening as his oxygen capacity increased. His limbs thickened. His digits stretched and webbed. The power of the ocean beast was now his.

He turned and began to rise.

Meanwhile — Two Minutes Later…

Owen, Claire, Zach, and Gray stood in stunned silence by the Mosasaur lagoon. They had watched helplessly as Alex had been ripped below the surface, consumed by the monstrous leviathan.

It had only been two minutes, but it felt like a lifetime.

Owen sighed and turned to the others. "Let's move. We can't stay here."

Blue had already vanished, slipping away into the jungle.

Then…

The water began to churn.

Bubbles rose.

Red. The water was red.

"Get down!" Owen shouted, raising his arm to shield the others.

BOOM!

A massive shape erupted from the lagoon, spraying water in every direction. It slammed down onto the paved plaza with a deafening thud — Alex.

He landed on three massive limbs, the fourth still regenerating — already stretching, bones forming beneath healing obsidian flesh. Cuts across his flanks sealed shut as the blood orchid-enhanced regeneration mended him before their very eyes.

His black scales glistened in the moonlight, and his bloodied maw curled into something like a grin.

He was alive. And stronger than ever.
