Hi guys! Welcome to chapter three! Thank you to those of you who have followed, and favorite! As well to GracefulLeopard, who left a review. Thank you so much! It means a lot! Anyway, lets start this chapter right away!
I opened my eyes and sat up in my bed. I gave out a loud yawn and looked around. Kyereum was staring out the small window, but when I started getting up, she quickly looked towards me and smiled.
"Now that you're awake, let's go!" She said cheerfully. Too cheerfully.
"What's wrong?" I asked her. She visibly cringed, as if that question did damage to her.
"Well... I saw... them. Nearby."
"Where?"
"About 50 miles north north-east." She replied, with a lowered voice as she looked down at her feet.
"Then they'll be close by here... Okay. Pack our stuff. I'm going to get dressed. Go wait for me by the gates when you're done."
"Right!" She said. She then went about the room, collecting all of our bags and fled the room as fast as she could. I waited several minutes, during which, I got dressed in my regular clothes, before I could safely voice my thoughts.
"They probably sent more of them... Those... children modeled after us." I said, looking out the window. I closed my eyes. We were the first to succeed after all. All the rest died. But after the scientist found us... experimented on us... barely any of the new ones they found died. From a death rate of 100%, it dropped to about 20%. Who could tell where it was at now? Maybe, just maybe, every single kid they kidnap survive those heinous tests, those inhumane experiments. More of those... puppets to find us and drag us back to hell, huh? Well, as long as I am here, I swear that Kyereum will never feel that kind of pain again.
I reached my hand into my shirt, and grabbed my necklace, bringing it out into the light. A blue, crystal, tearshaped necklace. It was the last of my... our mom. The only memory of her left was right here. For the sake of our mom... for my sister... I will not die.
I jumped out the window of the room we rented, and ran towards the gate where Kyereum is waiting for me.
"Hey brother!" Kyereum called out to me when I appeared at the gate.
"Yo. Let's go before the locals ask more money from us."
"Okay!" She cheerfully said, obviously forgetting the real reason we were leaving so soon. Before we even took a single step away from the village, someone appeared from the trees.
He looked to be about 11 years old, with messy blonde hair and permenant wide blue eyes. He was wearing an orange jumpsuit, with the numbers 375862 on the left hand side. In his hands, was a small gun that had a short blade attached to the top of it.
"Looks like we were too late..." I said, trailing off at the end.
"I found you...!" I boy said, smiling a very nasty smile. Hearing something from behind us, I looked behind me, by tilting my head to the right.
Another boy, this one with messy black hair and red hairs, wearing the same outfit, only with the numbers 394527, stood several meters behind us, holding the same gun. He was also smiling crazily at us.
"The one with the black hair is stronger. I'll take him and you'll take the one infront of us." I said to my sister, turning around completely to face the raven haired boy.
"Roger!" She said, stomping her right foot to the ground behind her, and using her incredible strength to propel herself forward towards the blonde haired boy, creating a small crator where her foot was. Man her strength was for real. I faced my opponent head on. I lifted my hands and spread my feet apart and narrowed my eyes.
"Bring it!" I yelled out. The boy then pointed the gun at me, and fired two shots at me. As the two bullets neared me, I started forward. I ducked to the left of the first bullet, then I jumped past the second one, doing a back flip. I landed behind the raven haired boy, and, placing my right hand on the ground and lifting my body up, I spun around and gave a pretty powerful spinning side kick to the side of his head, sending him flying into a tree, nearly breaking it in half. He spat out some blood, but easily got up, like it didn't even hurt him. 'Right.' I thought to myself, as I let out a breathe. 'They don't feel pain anymore.' It was much easier to get rid of pain altogether for the newest kids, but for when we were still there, everyone could still feel pain. They probably got rid of the feeling of pain so they can better capture us.
I ran towards the boy, ready to finish the fight, when he smiled at me and jumped forward. He swung his gun blade at my face, but I managed to spin out of the way of his attack. He then tried to kick my face, but I dropped to the ground, so his leg only met air. As I turned to face him, a pain suddenly appeared in my leg, causing me to trip to the ground. A bullet? No, I didn't hear anything! What was this? I looked at the small wound, that was now covered in blood, and saw a small hole in my leg. I peered inside the hole, and saw... nothing. It was as if an invisible bullet was shot into my leg, but that wasn't possible! Seeing my panic, the raven haired boy started laughing. I looked towards him, which only made him laugh harder.
"See, our scientists whipped out a new weapon! I fired two shots earlier at you, right? Well, I actually fired three! The third shot was fired when you kicked me in the head, right into your leg at point blank range, so there was no way for you to dodge it, even by chance! Aren't our scientists amazing?" He laughed out. I narrowed my eyes. So all I have to do, is to take him out making sure that the gun isn't pointed at me. All I had to do was to get behind him to end this fight.
I kicked off from the ground and flew towards him at full speed. In less than a second, I was infront of him. His laughter stopped in a moment of surprise and panic, but he soon started to grin. He swung his gun at me, trying to make me dodge in a way that would let him shoot me, but instead of dodging the gun, I grabbed it with my hand, forcing it to point away from me. The boy soon went from smiling, to frowning, to scared. Well, he was only about 10, no matter what those scientist do, that won't change. I let go of the gun and jumped over him. I landed easily on my feet and spun around, karate chopping his neck in the process. He gasped out in surprise and fell to the ground unconcious. I took a few seconds to catch my breathe and to tear some of his orange jumpsuit to wrap around my leg. After that, I turned back to the gate, hoping to see Kyereum already finished with her match, but instead, to my horror, I saw her being surrounded by several boys holding guns aimed at her head and looking my way.
Okay, for the fight, since it's been so long since I last wrote one, I don't know if it's any good, so if you could tell me if it was good, or needed improving, and what it can be improved on, then I'll happily take your advice and use it for other fight scenes! Anyway, I hope Kyreum will be okay! But, you'll find out what happens in the next chapter! Or the one after it! Please leave a favorite and/or follow if you enjoyed, and leave a review about what you think so far! Anything can help! But don't worry! It'll get better! Trust me! Kuromaster, signing off!
