Chapter 8
Zangief Story- The conversation
I don't own Wreck it Ralph and Street fighter. Sorry the long delay due to writer block and lack of response. (Lack response is just a joke)
Then I was walking in front and girls was behind. At least my hands was not tied and seemed they were confident that I would not run away or doing sometimes stupid. I didn't want my back turning in to some sort of practice target that hanging on shooting range. I kept my distance between them and ordered me to turn left or right direction when they asked me to do so.
It was a torture without any clothes on my body in the open winter field except my red dashing underwear and my boots. It was darn hard to walk as for each step that I make. My foot sunk deep to ankle and the boot leather harden thick began to act like a sand paper thin out my skin.
The girl didn't bother much about me like everyone does not notice on me. They walked and busy chattering about their stuff along the journey. You know girl topic as what to wear or do after the war over. Except Eva. A quiet type and very alert among her team mate.
"I wondered where are we going?" I popped up a question and was intended to direct the question to Eva.
"Heading to our base. See our captain there. She will decide your fate." Inna asked
"Perhaps he will be a great help as soldier. Look at his body. Plently of stamina and muscles bound body" Vera added some positive value on me.
"I, a soldier." I gave a thought and it would be awesome for me to wear something cool like the Mr. bigshot Bison which most that I preferred my outfit made of furs and carrying the big gun that make a lot big bang sound like the those guys in Hero's Duty that we met in tappers.
"If that bloke head's trigger finger can fit on it. Probably don't" Eva cut in her suggestion like a knife stabbing into my heart.
That was really burst my bubbles to be come a soldier and I had forgot that I never use a gun because I being coop into my place at most of the time or drinking until morning. My fingers were damn big than other. Freaking big that I used to entertaining myself alone when I smashed an egg and the liquid shaped like exactly my palm print. I was into an art artist that moment, hanging all my work on my room until the unpleasant smell set in.
"He can become a heavy infantry. You know a bazooka man." Inna seemed defending on me.
"Wait, What it a bazooka man? I never hear before." I asked which I had accidentally bringing me down much more lower level of intelligence. The girls was laughing and I was no idea what is a bazooka man mean. I know tanks and planes very well. Plus man with big guns.
"With his intelligence, he is better off become a construction worker, fixing a building or something."
Those I understood what she mean. I am going be like felix. Does she mean I am going be a popular person. Too bad it happened in my dream.
"Yes, Indeed he will be. Just suit well nicely." Alisa agreed.
"Perhaps, He is good in other thing." Eva stopped her track as the rest followed her suit and spotted a military truck not far away from their sight. It looked an abandon truck. Probably it was out of gas or engine failure.
"Hey, Zangief. I want you to do something for us." Eva asked and she called my name for the first time. I turned away and hoped to see her face again like in the arcade. The smiling face that I hoped for.
But the way I was expected wrongly, Eva grinned as one of her eye's brow raised with a hint of something nasty coming toward me.
I was right but at least half of it. I wore a thick full covered brown coat and I am pushing an abandon truck seemed out of gas. The truck was loaded with good supply of food and water when the girls was found. Too much of it, it was hassle going back and forth for the supply and rather having me pushing the truck. The whole thing heading to the base.
I was not fond with the idea like a mule pulling a cart but the girls seemed desperate with the supplies. Well, I decided to do a good deed to win Eva heart. Even she had a rifle pointing at me in all time.
My guess was right. Eva still pointing the rifle on me as I am pushing the truck all the way to the base camp. Inna and Alisa took the front to navigate and drive. Meanwhile Eva and Vera sat behind under the covered canvas, monitoring me to do my work as a mule does. I never saw that coming into my dream or was I? I am freaking do not know. I bet that monk did altered my dream.
Vera was busy searching the boxes and took some rations for herself to enjoy and Eva was guarding me.
"Why you have become a soldier?" I popped up another question. I got the guts to asking her again. With my confident that she would never shoot me because I had a leverage on my side. Nobody would push the truck except me. She turned her safety gun off to proved I was wrong again.
"Shut it." Eva answered. It was sign to change my topic.
"You looked like someone I know?" I asked again.
"You always use those line when you meet another girl." Eva silenced me. But I don't give up yet.
"I used to know a person look exactly like you. She is a sweet girl." I said, thinking about the girl gamer always picked on me to fight.
"Vera, your shift now." Eva passed the rifle suddenly as Vera was chewing her food. Vera took and pointed at me. Eva took out a selection of rations out from the boxes and placed neat in front of her.
"Talk. I am listening." She prepared a meal and soon separated with two set.
"What are you doing? Eva." Vera wondered until she got it the idea when Eva took a bottle from the boxes.
I continued my talk and got avoided questioning by her all the way but feeding me even I was not hungry at all but her food that she make was tastily that she made and made me fire up. The truck began to move faster. Eva gave a satisfaction smile with my work.
Over extended time, I was pushing the truck and yapping non stop happily until I forgot that I started to felt bit of woozy. My legs began gave in and couldn't continue.
Truck slowed down and I stopped standing and my hands still gripped the metal door.
"What are you doing. Are you mad?" Vera dropped the gun and slapping my face. one thing I found out. No pain.
"We are nearby to the camp." Eva banged her fist against the metal to signal the front seat driver to get off.
"Aww. We have not reach yet." Inna complained after felt the bang vibrated
"Gear the up and some supplies. When we reach there. We call the troop." Eva took a box load.
"It is heavy." Vera followed behind.
Then a bullet punctured thru the canvas. An enemy ambush.
The enemy site.
The general was amazed with the enemy tactic by using a bear to push the truck. He spied with his binocular at far distance on worst weather condition. He never thought a big sized man wore thick fur coat and singled pushing the truck crossed his mind. He snapped his fingers to his men to cease fire until he gave another instruction. "Don't shoot the bear."
"Yes sir, General." The soldiers reload the machine gun and about to fire again. The general halted them. "Don't shoot the girls."
Soldier puzzled until turned around and yelled at them. "Go! capture them." The soldier scrambled out from the position and charging toward that truck.
Inna and Alisa jumped out from truck by using the driver seat and both girl behind the back escaped by cutting a slit hole big enough to jump out. I was stood there, drunk and my thought was thinking something else. Was it a firework display for I had reached the base site.
"I am going be felix. Take this Ralph. Ohh" I raised up hands like a champ which also impress the general into wrong idea. Eager to catch me alive.
Then I was dragged to the side and pushed my body against the cold metal by all the four girls.
"What is it?"
"We are under attack. Stupid." Eva yelled at my ear. Soon I realized we stuck in the fire range. The girls were clueless with next action and so I am too. It was my first time in actual battle field.
I am wrestler only and I don't want to die in my own dream which sounded silly.
"Zangief, flip the truck over." Eva asked me.
"What?" I was dumb-folded and woozy in the same time
"Just do it" Eva ordered with a stern look.
I used my last ounce of strength as I lift the truck one sided to tip over. "Come on!" Eva yelled. Finally the truck tipped over and created a blanket of snow which gave enough time for the girls to run and hide.
I sat down, leaning against truck body. I felt tired and ready to close my eyes. " Darn, They are leaving me alone." I cursed but I still saw Eva kneel in front me. Slapping my face to wake up but my eyes and mind refused to obey.
"Come, you have slow the enemy down. Wake up." Eva yelled at me again but I didn't hear clear enough and sounded like a broken record. I thought she said like this to me which I figured it myself.
"You are slow . Wake up and exercise."
Wait a minute here, She mean that I am slow moving character and she was upset that I could not win a match all along. I had change to prove myself for her sake.
As I tried to say something. Eva used his rifle butt on my face and left me unconscious.
To be continue
