Wherefor art thou Metal Gear? Again, this poor kid owns nothing of Kojima's genius. Thanks for reading and the reviews! Enjoy!
Jack was running with the speed of an eighty year old arthritis victim, but in his mind he was running like the wind. "Got to get away, go to get away!", he panted over and over again like it was some kind of protective incantation. He wasn't even two blocks from where he'd been shot when Snake caught up with him.
" You stupid ungrateful little retch! You left me to my fate with that homo vampire!", Snake yelled behind him.
Jack only "ran" faster. Snake lunged and tackled him to the ground. After struggling like a dying cat, Jack finally surrendered in Snake's chokehold.
"Ok, ok I gib!Leggo uh meee!", he choked. Snake stood up, kicked him in the side for being a spineless worm and dragged him by his shot leg into another alley. By this time Jack was crying and whimpering in pain.
"I saved your ass! How could you sell me out like that?!", snarled Snake. He had to wait a few seconds for Jack to wipe the snot off his face.
"It's not like I didn't want to help you…it's just that during our last fight, Vamp…", Jack started to cry harder.
"Vamp what!! What could be so freakin' bad that-"started Snake but was interrupted by a very high pitched squeal.
"He touched me ok!", let out Jack. There was complete silence for an entire minute. Snake stared at Jack's puffy teary face with mock sympathy and then fell down laughing hysterically.
" This is why a homosexual vampire shot you and tried to have his way with me? God I can't stop laughing, hahaha! Hell hath no fury like a woman-!",a shoe hit him full on in the face. Jack was leaning on a dumpster with his socked foot resting on a crate giving him the one finger salute.
"Screw you Snake! I still remember that day we both got drunk at Big Shell…!",began Jack.
"Hey! We promised we'd never speak of that remember! I didn't know what I was doing, and you were so lonely…and that's beside the point! Right now we have to find a place to hide so that big gay vampire won't find us."
Snake looked around anxiously, he knew Vamp would follow that crimson trial just like he had. He ripped off his shirt, to Jack's wide eyed surprise, and bandaged his still bleeding leg.
"You're still so tender Snake…", whispered Jack dreamy eyed. Snake stiffened like a corpse and stopped what he was doing.
"Will you just shut the hell up so we can get your lard ass to safety!?", he snapped. Jack pouted and looked sullenly at the dumpster. An idea formed in his head.
"Why don't we hide in the dumpster! He'll never look in there.", offered the injured man.
"You'd like that wouldn't you! Will you just pay attention? Look over there, at the end of the alley. It opens up to a park, we can hide there!", exclaimed Snake.
Meanwhile….
" Tonight is such a nice night! Mmm, I can't wait to sink my teeth into Snake.", Vamp stopped playing with the stolen knife to sniff the night air. "They didn't go very far, strange. Maybe they're trying to ambush me?" He walked on at a leisurely pace, humming a little tune.
"Pick up the pace! Just because you're shot doesn't mean you can be this slow. Argh, stop, ok just stop!" Snake yanked Jack by the wrist and pulled him toward him. Jack let out a little gasp.
"W-what are you doing!? We're in the middle of a public park, this is no time for that!", blurted Jack.
"No you moron! Hop on my back, I'll have to carry you or we'll both get caught. Hurry!", Snake crouched slightly and braced himself. Jack, hesitated a moment and took in the view.
"You better not be staring at my ass you pervert!", shouted Snake. Jack gasped a little and wondered how Snake knew what he was doing. That of course made Snake laugh at his idiocy which in turn made him blush again. He hobbled toward him a bit, swung his arms like an Olympic long-jumper and sprung for Snake's back. Surprisingly, Jack didn't miss and Snake didn't fall. After some readjustments and grunting, Snake took off toward a stand of trees. They had only walked a few paces when Vamp sprinted behind them. They heard a swish and saw that he had thrown Snake's knife into the tree in from of them. Snake huffed and began an awkward yet shockingly quick run into the center of the trees. Vamp let out an eerie howl and sprinted even faster.
Sweat was running down Snake's face and back, adrenaline and calculations ran through his body. As he was about to drop Jack and spin around to face Vamp, he fell head first into a hole.
