Hey guys, another chapter. Please leave a review. Enjoy!
(Masek's point of view)
We exited the jump portal to see the desert planet before us. The ship went to autopilot and we began to descend into atmosphere.
The closer to the surface we got; the bigger the city Jika'rah became. The autopilot landed us outside of the city walls.
We both got up from our seats and walked through the maze of corridors and elevators we call a ship. We both received a blast of sand in our faces as the elevator touched the planet's surface.
In the distance we saw the silhouette of a man walking towards us. We stepped off the elevator to greet the man before realizing his face was burnt and inhuman.
His nose and ears were missing and his skin was brown like cooked meat. The man held both his arms out as if he was holding something.
"they sent me a spartan? Amazing! A ship as well?" he said. His voice was rough and smelled of smoke.
He put his arms down back to his sides. "my name is Aaron". Me and Ragnarok made eye contact before offering our hands for a handshake. Aaron hesitantly shook our hands. His hand was rough and strong.
"I'll tell you guys about my condition when we get inside the ship" he said as he looked back at the city.
Aaron followed us as we found our way back to the cockpit. Me and Ragnarok sat in our seats and Aaron stood behind us with each hand resting on the shoulder of our chairs.
"so lets get this shit done with. 7 years ago I was a volunteer for a program set up by ONI. They tested on me and I went into a coma that lasted several days. When I woke up I looked like this. ONI then gave me mission to assassinate Kin'ee Ri'huq. After all that my life seems to get more shitty each day".
I looked at Aaron. "well Mr. Nabor, tell us where to go and we will go there" I said.
"I need you to take me to the Centari system" he said.
I typed in the coordinates "you might want to sit down. We wouldn't you to be flying into the vacuum of space" I said.
He quickly sat down in the chair behind me. In an instant the ship jerked forward as it went through the jump portal.
(Aaron's point of view)
When the ship came out of the jump portal; everything seemed to be fine until ships started come out of their own portals.
Within 20 seconds we were surrounded by an entire fleet of insurrection ships.
"fuck me" was what I said as the computer started the jumping procedure again.
I noticed the entire fleet charging up mac canons.
Just before they fired we jumped.
I looked at Masek. "where did we go?" I asked. She raised her shoulders "I don't know".
When we came out of the jump, we all saw the halo ring that seemed to be unfinished.
As we came closer to the halo, it seemed to be pulling us in.
"why is it pulling us in?" I asked. "I don't know!" said Masek with concern.
Suddenly the ship began to loose control. I watched Masek grab onto the controls and try to stabilize the ship.
The ship started to spiral. All the inertia started to pull us towards the walls and the roof.
Ragnarok fell out of his seat and was stuck to the wall. Me and Masek were flung to the other wall. I hit the wall hard enough it dented. I looked over to Masek and saw her unconscious.
We spiraled faster and faster, and I felt my veins rupture in my body. I heard a loud bang and everything went black.
When I awoke the roof was gone and the dark sky remained. Flames surrounded me lighting the area in a orange glow. I stood up as I heard the crackling of the fire. I stared at the fire that was dancing on the remnants of the ship.
I looked to my right to see Ragnarok move a piece of metal. He stood up and nodded to me.
"where is Masek?" Ragnarok asked.
I looked at his visor to see it glow with the light from the fire. "I don't know" I responded.
Me and Ragnarok walked past the wall of flames. As we passed the corner we saw Masek lying on the ground with blood around her.
I watched as Ragnarok ran towards her.
(Ragnarok's point of view)
I looked at her body in horror as I saw her chest had been skewered by a shard of metal. I looked at her body as it was lit by the orange glow of the flames; her blood glistening.
I crouched and caressed her face. I was glad I had my helmet because my eyes were flowing with tears.
"sorry" said Aaron. I looked back at him. "you fucking ass hole! She died and all you have to say is 'sorry'. What the fuck!?"
Aaron just looked at me with expressionless eyes. "how am I an ass hole? She fucking died because she wasn't strong enough to handle the inertia" He said.
I stood up and turned around and punched him in his face. His head turned to his right but his body didn't move an inch.
"who the fuck do you think you are!?" I shouted.
Aaron turned his head towards me and I saw his pupils pinprick.
"I'm the guy who is going to kick your pussy bitch ass!" he spat.
I shouted as I went to give him a right hook. I launched my fist and he caught it with ease. I tried to pull back but his hand that was grasped onto my right fist, preventing it from moving.
Aaron had little to no emotion on his face but his eyes gave away that he was pissed. He pulled me forward as he unleashed his left hook. It connected to the visor of my helmet and shattered the reinforced glass. Shards of glass were shot into my face; cutting into my skin.
My head went back as he grabbed my left leg, letting go of my right fist. With one arm he flung me into the metal wall behind Masek's corpse.
The metal around me immobilized me from being able to free myself.
(Aaron's point of view)
I walked over to Masek's dead body and pulled out the metal shard. With the shard in my right hand I walked over to Ragnarok.
I looked up at him. "thanks for all the help but I think this is where me and you part ways" he looked at my face through his broken helmet.
I climbed up his body to be eye level with him. He looked at my face with a glare.
"you are a monster" he said.
I looked him in the eyes. "I know" I said as I brought up the shard of metal to his head and rammed it with little strength as possible. I heard the metal shard clang against his helmet behind his head.
I climbed down from Ragnarok's body. I walked over to Masek and check her body for weapons.
I grabbed the plasma pistol from her belt and put it on mine and walked away from the body and went into the flames.
So how was it? Sorry I killed off Masek and Ragnarok. But the story needs to continue.
Please leave a review. Even if you are a guest.
