them had almost burned his skin, and muscle off the bone but he would live he may not have been through worse though he needed to keep going, his
dead comrades sat all around him with nothing but their bones remaining from the explosion and the heat from the bomb or what ever caused the
explosion. indeed he wasn't doing so well either he wouldn't do well from surviving a direct hit of lethal doses of radiation and surviving them or he would
die before he completed his mission, that wasn't the problem right now. he felt odd inside like his organs had melted and something living inside him was
drinking his liquified organs, ignoring that feeling for right now he pulled the dog tags around his neck off the chain turned to dust as he pulled them off,
but his dog tags had been burned into his chest from the heat all though it wasn't itching or irritating him. he grabbed his gun which was right next to him
thankfully or he thought it was his weapon he used the remaining weapon frame to lift himself up, he looked around himself to see if anyone other than him of
the thousands of soldiers that were sent to the battle survived but from the looks of how much ash was in the air and the graveyard of bones around him it
didn't seem like anyone survived nothing but charred bodies with most of them being nothing except bones, and ash resonating off them was around him.
he saw that leanboxs basilican still looked to be standing even after the explosion, as a remaining soldier he needed to see if lady green heart was still
alive, he hoped that she still was.
the city didn't share the same fate as most of the land over half of the building was blown clean off the foundation or they were burning into a crisp
meaning that if she was still alive in her bomb proof bunker that her hdd form would have little to no power from no one surviving well the ones who didn't
make it out in time it was still possible that she would have her share power, the front door to the Basilicon was still standing, but the door handle wasn't
hot from the explosion the nerves in his body could be destroyed meaning that he couldn't feel pain in those spots if attacked, indeed he realized how lucky
he was to survive this event or was he lucky. bodies filled the hallways all of them dead but not buried because of the Basilicon walls protecting them
though how did they survive, he thought that he would rather see the burned bodies of his brothers, and sisters that he fought with than their intact bodies
at least he didn't have to look at their eyes as burned victims you only know who it is by dog tags with them you know who it is and wonder what the last
thing they saw was. Jordan hoped that the lady was still alive not only was she his childhood friend/ mother figure but over the years he had developed
feelings for her since he was a kid and she was just starting leanbox. Jordan was homeless his entire childhood he also never knew his birth mother or his
father he never knew why they threw him away either, though vert was actually the reason why he isn't dead, it's also the reason why he left her in the first
place. he regrets that decision if he were to find vert still alive it would have been nearly 10 years since they saw or talked to each other but he wasn't
expecting his life to last that long to live to that point all he wanted right now was that he see vert once more before his life gives up and make sure she's
safe.
he approached the bunker door it had burn marks all over the metal armor on the door, before he could open it his heart began to race as his back bones
felt like they just collapsed, he grabbed the handle, and pulled it to the side, and spun it around to unlock the door its unlocking mechanism was weird.
the doors locks, clicked and it opened up without trying to open it inside eight dead bodies sat together in a pile, none of them were vert but that didn't
mean anything she could either still be alive or she was dead since she was supposed to be in the bunker unless they were lied to. his body began to hurt
all over like his interior body was burning from on the inside out, Jordan looked around to see if there was anything else around that would be useful,
nothing but a share site crystal was in the room on the supply shelf. Jordan took the crystal and injected the crystal into his body so it could heal some of the
wounds except when he consumed it none of the wounds on his body began healing like they couldn't be healed. he walked out of the Basilicon onto the
front porch was the main entrance was the area was beyond saving any signs of life ever being here before the bomb detonation was gone like nothing
ever existed here in the first place, the place was devoided of life and would probably stay like this for a very long time.
Jordan scratched the side of face as in the process of doing so he pulled the skin, and muscle along with everything else that he could get a hold of
including his eye along with the cord on the back fell off like a fine piece of meat falling off the bone which in this case is extremely disgusting. Jordan
began walking through the wreckage of the city as he began feeling tired or in other words he began letting go of life, soon his legs gave away as he
collapsed to the ground his breathing began slowing down. his vision began to get dark while his eyes tried to close but he tried to keep them open, his
heart beat came to a stop as his breathing halted, his brain shut down as he exhaled one more time.
(unknown time later)
he opened his eyes as he inhaled he exhaled afterward as what seemed like years worth of dust came up his throat and out of his mouth as he coughed,
he lifted himself up he looked at his arms as they now had large holes in the middle of it with two side columns of his arm that came back up at the top to
join at the wrist. as he breathed in the fresh air it was colder than normal air almost freezing when he exhaled his breath was cold enough to turn into frost,
his arms had that opening feature in the same place near the wrist with his skin feeling like thin armor plates stacked on each other. his face felt
boney with his eyes sunken in more than usual he had no eye lashes or eye brows near his eyes his smell was a lot more powerful than normal, strong
enough that he could smell living things miles away. Jordan then remembered that he was looking for vert he had to go to her to see if she had survived the
attack or if it was one but how would he know where she is, perhaps planaptune was still a good place to begin perhaps it was also a good place to see if
vert still alive, more questions than answers filled his head but he needed to just go to planaptune.
