Back with the interesting part of New Intelligence! Sorry for that little cliffhanger there.
New Intelligence:
Chapter Seven:
I Maybe Be A Monster.
Sobs echoed through the halls from the classroom that was just raided by the intruders, along with shouts and a loud thud, followed by a scream.
Lovino winced and heard a few muffled sobbing in the room they were in, some people giving quiet shushing. He looked at the door and could feel his mechanical heart racing. One of his creators had told him if there is ever a situation where he hides in a room and the area next to him was attacked, then it would take five seconds if the people were going attack your room, or skip it.
One.
Another gunshot was sounded and a loud sob.
Two.
Another scream.
Three.
A women began pleading, but suddenly got stopped in the middle of her sentence as he could barely hear her gasping and choking from the other room.
Four.
Suddenly, it was extremely quiet, even the girls that were previously sobbing had stopped and were staring at the door.
Fi-
He knew it was too good to be true. The lock on the door made a loud snapping sound of metal as bullets shot through it and broke the seal. However, the school must have been smart enough to add emergency locks, because when they tried to kick it, it just budged. Lovino could hear one of them yelling to activate it, and the sound of something slapping against the door and the small ticks made it clear that they also came prepared.
When the bomb got on the last number, it gave a last tick before the door blew off the hinges, slamming into the several desks and crashing into a window, causing the glass to shatter and fall on some of the students that were somewhat near it.
Two men came into the room, both wearing suits that had white and black separated at their torso with pads along their body, and a yellow mark on their shoulder. On their head was a helmet with the top half of it white and the bottom black while the screen was a dull yellow and crossed with a white mask covering their mouth. These two had the guns, which were raised and pointed at the students and the teacher.
One of them pressed a button on the side of their helmet and pulled down the mask, yanking a small microphone out from under the helmet. He swung his gun to the side, "Counter The Elite group into room 472, route is north from start." he repeated it once more before releasing the button and pushing the microphone back up, then pulling the mask up.
Lovino felt a nudge against him and turned to Femke, who had a worried expression on, but pointed to Antonio with her thumb so the intruders didn't see. He nodded and turned to the student, raising a brow questionably.
"Lovino, I will give you a choice. I will let you go on your defense and combat mode, but you can't show too much. I want you to only use it when you feel like it's getting bad or violent." Antonio whispered lowly and quiet, to where Lovino had a slight trouble actually understanding him for a moment. He had moved the arm that was around his shoulders to fiddle with trying to find the hatch on the back of his neck, and when he did, he found the odd-shaped wire and pull it apart, causing the boy to slump a little.
However, none of them noticed Femke watching from the corner of her eye.
The robot gave a half-nod before turned back to the door, where two other men came in. One of them had their knife out and was wiping a dark red liquid off of it as it began dripping on the floor. He shivered, thinking of the woman who was silenced in the other room by one of those knives.
He couldn't let these innocent people get murdered.
The four men began grabbing random students, teasing and threatening them, but threw them back in the huddle in the corner of the room. One of the men noticed something about Lovino that made him wave his gun to stand. Completely surprised, the boy had stood up and walked over to the two men, not able to read their shocked expressions due to the screen and mask.
One of them slid off their bottom mask and leaned close towards him, "Just who are you?" he asked, gun propped up against his shoulder with his finger on the trigger.
Lovino gave a glare, "No one you need to know." he grumbled, glancing at Femke, then Antonio, who frowned.
The other man scoffed, "You've got a lot of guts to say that to four men who are armed and can kill you in a matter of seconds." he growled, grabbing the front of Lovino's shirt and leaning down to his height. "Or, we can get those two you keep looking at, I'm sure you wouldn't mind that." He looked towards a terrified look on Femke's face and a rather concerned look on Antonio's.
"Don't fucking touch them!" Lovino hissed, his control rather slipping as he flashed his pupils to white and back.
The man let go of his shirt and took a step back, cocking his gun. He growled, "I knew it.. you little-!" he made a move to slam the bottom of the gun into Lovino's temple, but the boy had managed to move his head to the side, causing the man to fall forward and have the android kick him off before he fell on top of him.
Lovino was about to change into his modes, when he looked at Antonio, who was being held by one of the other men with Femke. He shook his head, turning back to the other man with the gun, but was shocked to find himself pressed against the classroom wall suddenly with a hand around his throat. He snapped back into reality when he heard the sound of the gun cocking and leaned back before headbutting the man, but when he didn't pull away, he pressed his feet against the mans stomach and kicked him off, causing both of them to fall to the floor roughly.
He couldn't control his strength, which meant he wouldn't fight.
The man roughly put his gun back into its holster so it wouldn't get in way as he stood back up, groaning from the ache in his ribs.
He yanked the front of Lovino's shirt so he was up to his height and threw him into the wall while he was still dizzy from the headbutt, ignoring the loud curses and cries from the two other students and the sobs from the rest of the class. He yanked him back up and threw him again, taking a few steps back, then motioned for the taller man to toss him the knife.
The android moaned in pain as he pushed himself back up to his hands, a metallic taste brewing in mouth and the smell of it made him feel sick of how strong it was. He brought his fingers to his forehead, where a cut began bleeding and dripping down his temple and across his eye, he barely rubbed above his eye so it wouldn't drip into it and pulled away to find a black liquid smeared on his fingers.
His vision blurred as he saw the man walking towards him, seeing the glint of the knife in his pouch and the raise of his fist made him squeeze his eyes shut and wait for the pain.
But when he heard a scream and footsteps coming closer, he immediately look over at Antonio. Noticing Femke was missing from where they were holding Antonio, who was cursing, made his eyes widen. Lovino looked up in horror to find the blonde girl standing in front of him, crossing her arms over her head as the masked man threw the fist into her weak guard.
The tall man growled in annoyance and grabbed her arm, throwing her aside, causing her to roll into the white wall. He pulled his gun back out and pointed the barrel inches away from her head, "Don't get into messes you aren't involved into, brat." he panted, still a bit out of breath from the previous actions.
"Stop!" Lovino shouted, but knew by the time he stood up then he would already have shot her dead and would move on to him or Antonio. Adrenalin shot through his body and he felt himself pushing himself up, despite the pain. He bit his split lip, took a chance, and swiped his feet against the mans legs, catching him by surprise and making him stumble back and on to the hard floor. The gun flew from his grasp and skidded across the floor.
The masked man groaned, "Damn, you're stronger than I expected." he muttered, lunging at Lovino and managing to pin him to the floor after they wrestled over it. He wrapped his hand tightly around the smaller throat and used the other to pull the knife out from one of the pouches, moving the knife to press against the part of his throat where the hand wasn't covering, his wrist against his mouth.
A sound of sirens began to come into hearing from the broken window, where the door was half way hanging out.
The man holding Antonio turned to his partner, "Hurry this up and kill him already." he hissed, glaring down at the student he was holding when he moved and yanked away. The other man with the gun was pointing the barrel at Lovino while being Antonio and Femke, who got yanked back to the spot.
The machine gasped, staring wide eyed at the sharp blade that pressed against his throat. A shiver ran down his spine at the cold touch.
His partner looked determined to kill him, but the way the sirens were outside of the building made the look falter into anger. He pressed the knife deeper, the line where it had pushed into his skin bubbled with drops of black.
Finally, with no choice left, Lovino shut his eyes tightly and sunk his teeth into the mans wrist, the taste of blood filled his mouth while blood began to soak into the white of his suit. The knife had slipped from the mans grip and clattered to the floor when his bite had drawn blood.
A scream of pain only made him try to take a deep breath and sink them deeper into the destroyed flesh.
Lovino opened his eyes when he heard loud shouts and saw the mans three partners being pulled away by black cyborgs and pressed up against the wall with their arms twisted against their back. Another black cyborg rushed over to the android, who was still holding on to the wrist, pulled the suited man from him and pressed him up against the wall like the others.
With a large gasp of needy air, Lovino sat up and covered his throat, feeling sparks fly and hitting the inside of his palm made him wince.
"You're a fucking monster." The pinned man growled, "You'll destroy the human race!" he hissed, but was silenced by an officer.
Suddenly, Lovino felt a wave of exhaustion and relief at the same time. When he looked at the mans wrist, his stomach churned and he felt the dried blood on his lips from the wound. He gave a shaking exhale and turned to Antonio and Femke, who were trying to get away from the officers and doctors as quick as possible to get to the android.
When the two managed to pass the helping adults they quickly ran over to Lovino. While Antonio crouched beside him and put his jacket around him to cover the sparks that were flying, Femke stood ahead of him, watching quietly as she rubbed her arm.
Lovino looked up at her, "L-Look Femke.. I'm sorry I didn't tell you. I-" he blushed when she cut him off by dropping in front of him and wrapping her arms around his middle so she wouldn't bother any of the cuts, but it had caused him to wince from being slammed into the wall and to the floor.
He could feel her tears start to soak into his shirt, but he gave a half-smile down at her before he finally let the exhaustion slip over after he heard the soft whisper from Antonio that made him feel warm and safe.
True, he maybe a monster and maybe he was going to destroy the humans, but at least Antonio would still be by his side in the end.
Aaaa this chapter took long but I like how it turned ou I'm sorry the fight scenes aren't too great, I need to work on those!
Anyway, until next time!
