Chapter 5 - Gluttony and Lust

Shawn and Nora immediately went up to the two newcomers. They saw a young man who looked to be the same age, handsome, incredibly muscular, and bigger than Shawn. He had short silver hair, pale grey skin, and yellow eyes. Then Shawn and Nora saw the other person: a girl who was slightly shorter than Nora but had an extremely sexy, busty figure. She had grey skin, yellow eyes, and long silver hair that only reached her waist, not the floor.

Both newcomers looked confused, glancing around. They seemed to realize they were in space, and their mouths were hanging open as they looked at the blue planet below them. After that, Shawn extended his hand. The young man immediately stared at Shawn's hand and shook it automatically, though his face looked confused seeing Shawn.

"What's your name? I'm Shawn, and that's Nora," Shawn said, introducing himself and Nora while looking slightly up since the young man was taller than him.

"Oh... my name is Devon. Where the hell are we? I remember being sentenced to death and dying," Devon muttered.

Then Nora casually extended her hand to the girl in front of her. The girl, who still looked confused, flinched slightly when she saw the strange-looking Nora. She then turned to look at Shawn and also at Devon next to her. She immediately stared at the three people near her with a puzzled look. Then she turned back to Nora, extended her hand, and shook Nora's hand.

"Um... my name is Agnes. Where are we? Why am I alive again? I was executed," said Agnes, the sexy girl.

Nora introduced herself and Shawn. Then Aisha immediately took over, explaining everything to Devon and Agnes. Once they understood, both walked to the front and looked at the planet below them.

"So that planet isn't Earth," Devon muttered.

"Yeah, I thought I was above Earth at first... and it turns out I've been brought back to life, huh," Agnes replied.

Shawn and Nora approached them. "Whoosh," suddenly holographic screens popped up above the bracelets of Shawn, Nora, Devon, and Agnes, displaying their respective profiles.

Shawn and Nora immediately stared at Devon and Agnes after reading their profiles, smiling.

"What were you guys executed for?" Nora asked.

Nora then told Devon and Agnes about herself, followed by Shawn who also told them about himself. After hearing both stories, Devon and Agnes looked at each other. Devon took a breath and then explained that he was a former Marine.

After being betrayed by his superior, his wife, and his own parents, he became a serial killer who cooked and ate his victims, but he only targeted evil people, criminals, and those he thought deserved to die. His victim count was 15, and their bones were found in his backyard.

He was executed, but he felt no regret whatsoever because he shared the same mindset as Shawn and Nora: there were too many bad people in the world, and he intended to eat them all. After Devon finished, their attention turned to Agnes. Without further ado, Agnes told her story.

She was a dancer who later became a prostitute after being betrayed by her husband, a government official, and her younger brother, who also worked in the government. She became a prostitute to seduce corrupt officials, slowly poison them, take all their wealth after they died, and donate it to charities.

But after killing her ex-husband, her brother, and six other officials, she slipped up with the seventh official. She managed to kill him but was caught by his legal wife and child. Eventually, all her crimes were exposed, and she was immediately sentenced to death by the court. However, because she did what she did to fight injustice, her older sister agreed to have her included in the Watcher Project.

"At first, I thought my sister was ashamed of me and didn't want to hear my name or take care of my grave anymore, but it turns out I was wrong. That's what I realized when I listened to the audio in the broadcast Aisha showed," Agnes said.

"Oh, really?" Shawn asked.

He turned to Aisha and requested the footage about himself be shown one more time. This time, he listened to the audio of Emma's conversation with the ranking officer, which ended with Emma signing the document. After hearing everything, tears started to flow down Shawn's face because it turned out Emma signed the paper and approved Shawn being put into the Watcher Project, was because Emma admired her father and wanted him to live again and be happy, even though she knew she might never see him again.

The heartache in Shawn's chest immediately disappeared, and sadness washed over him. Nora immediately rubbed the back of Shawn's head, while Devon held Shawn's shoulder as he cried uncontrollably. After Shawn calmed down, Aisha resumed the next part of the explanation regarding the evolution on Planet Gaia and the current conditions on the surface.

Devon and Agnes's faces lit up when they saw the superhumans oppressing ordinary people. Devon stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, as if the superhumans looked incredibly delicious and tasty to eat. Agnes looked horny, as if she desperately wanted to "sample" those superhumans and then kill them. Seeing Devon and Agnes with their weird faces,

"Okay, I guess you guys wanna go down too," Shawn said, smiling even though his face still looked sad.

"Hell yeah, when do we drop, bro?" Devon asked eagerly.

"Come on, I wanna get down there," Agnes added.

"Looks like we have to wait for the others. If I remember right, when I woke up, there were five pods that hadn't opened yet. If you two are here, that means there are still three more who haven't woken up. I also wanna go down, I wanna see the contents of those super humans' guts," Nora said, looking at the screen.

"Turns out we're all the same," Shawn added.

"Of course we're the same. We might not have known each other before and we were in different countries, but here we are the same, and we're family. You guys are my brothers and my sister," Devon said.

"That's exactly right. I feel the same way, even though I was just crying because I knew I'd never see my older sister again," Agnes said.

"Huh... good thing I don't have anyone to cry over," Nora replied.

"Alright, the four of you can now descend," Aisha said.

Shawn, Nora, Devon, and Agnes immediately turned to look at Aisha's hologram, which now appeared to be human-sized behind them.

"Really?" the four asked cheerily.

"Wait, shouldn't there still be three more people?" Nora asked.

"That's correct, but they likely won't wake up for another week," Aisha replied.

"Hoo, I see. Alright then, let's go down," Shawn said, his energy returning.

"But before that, you must prepare yourselves and disguise yourselves as human," Aisha replied.

The four immediately looked at each other, then they followed Aisha as she walked out of the cockpit towards the preparation room.
