My head was throbbing, and Jack didn't look too well either. But our hardships were not over. The light here, already intermittent enough to spook a weaker soul than I, was getting worse. Jack stopped, and drew his borrowed knife, and I drew mine as well. There was a door ahead that had a sign on it that read, "Antimutagen dispersal control chamber ahead- enter at your own risk." No sooner than we had recovered our breath to press on when the door burst open, revealing two figures. The first was wearing a dark blue hooded shirt, like Jack's. He did not wear a mask, but his face was shrouded by the hood, except for the eyes, which where a bright glowing red. The other had no hood, but wore a black mask akin to Jack's. "Oh look, it's the doppelganger parade, come to stop us once and for all." Jack said, voice dripping with disdain more than his mask dripped ooze. The two were unfazed, and replied as one, "We are the guardians of this realm, and you invaders must be stopped, by any means necessary." They both drew long, sharp knives. "You will pay for what you did to our master." Without warning, they both lunged at us. A fierce battle ensued. Jack was handling his fighter ok, but I was hardly alive. I dodged again and again strikes that would have sent me straight to Allah, and then attempted my own feeble swings. I was disarmed shortly after, but managed to do the same to him. He swung a fist, and I sank to my knees, avoiding it. I brought my legs up in a maneuver I should not have been able to accomplish, grabbing the hooded one by his throat. With a heave of effort, I lifted him, and then twisted my legs, hearing that satisfying snap as I turned his head at a 180 degree angle, delivering what I saw as the killing blow. Right after that, Jack managed to puncture the masked one's defense, and plunged his blade into the masked one's left eyehole. He screamed in agony, but was cut short by another blade to the other eye. I took my fighters blade and buried it in his chest, to be sure he was dead. "Now we can save your city, and the world. Let's get moving."
