foreign bacteria or virus, her body almost instantaneously heals itself and dissolves the bullet.
    Isa looks down, «I think I was shot! But I don’t feel anything! I was shot. There’s a hole in my coverall. Whatever the Chreé did to us seems to be working.»
    More shots are fired, but now the three are expecting them. The three kids begin to concentrate on the warrior and animal spirits that are now a part of them. Willy runs towards them slashing and biting anyone near him. Nicky starts killing any clone in his path.
    After a few minutes of battling, Isa kills the last few with her bow and arrow.
    «That was too easy. Hurry before more clones get here!» Isa yells. Using her manifested bow and arrow, she quickly starts destroying the alien machines around them. Her arrows travel faster than bullets.
    The Plexiglas like machines around the perimeter and many of the basins are on fire, explosions erupt everywhere. Technology developed over hundreds of years is destroyed in seconds.
    The double doors slide open again.
    «More clones! There must be hundreds of them!» Willy shouts.
    The battle is fierce, bloody, and chaotic. It is close quarter fighting. Wave after wave of clones pour in. Bodies lie everywhere in pools of blood. Sounds of screams, grunts, bone crunching, and the unmistakable and disturbing thuds of bodies impacting the walls and floor are deafening. The reverberations can be heard throughout the miles of corridors.
    «There are only about ten left near the entrance!» Isa yells with as much energy as she could muster.
    Nicky limps up to them. Using his sonic weapon, he growls and blows them back towards the wall. All of them fall unconscious.
    An eerie silence surrounds the beaten warriors. Thousands of clones now lay motionless in this enormous room. It is a gory scene. Isa, Willy, and Nicky are bloody and badly injured. Their bodies are almost overwhelmed by all of their injuries.
    “We have to get out now!” Willy yells through the pain.
    They try to run out quickly, but their wounds prevent their bodies from healing as they normally would. Exhausted, they began to slowly head towards the exit.
    More clones wait at the exit.
    Isa sees them first. “Oh no,” she sighs.
    They can see and hear the blue pulses of energy exploding outside. Clones are being struck and killed.
    “Where’s that coming from?” Nicky asks.
    The ship that had brought them there was now trying to protect them. They battle what was left of the clones to escape. Willy takes the worst of it. Finally they are able to limp over to the ship and enter it. They fly away, all badly injured, but still alive. Nicky tries to reassure Willy just before he passes out, “You’ll pull through, don’t worry you’ll pull through buddy.” Nicky yells to the vehicle, “Get us to help!”
    The vehicle replies, “Chlezéon has been contacted.”
    “Come on Willy …” Nicky pleads. But he and Isa are so badly injured themselves, they could hardly be of any help.

Chapter 42 - Healing
    “He’ll make it. He has to,” Isa says.
    “I know he will …” But Nicky isn’t really sure if he will. Nicky does something he never really does. He closes his eyes and prays.
    The vehicle takes them back to the church. Z is waiting.
    They limp into the church with Isa carrying Willy over her shoulder.
    “Put him down here,” Z motions to them. “Do not despair. His body has shut down to heal. Even with the gravest of injuries, it is possible for you three to heal. Your capacity to heal surpasses even our own,” Z reassures Isa and Nicky just before he leaves the church.
    It was a long, painful night in the church, but by morning all three have completely healed.
    Isa is the first to wake up. “We did it!” Isa celebrates with her hands up in the air.
    “Yeah, we did it,” Nicky wipes his tired eyes.
    The two look at Willy still lying in a pew. “Hey, I’m fine you wimps …” Willy laughs.
    “Come here tough guy,” Nicky motions to
