How Could This Happen To Me?

*This is a SEQUEL to my other story, "The Perfect Weapon," so make sure you read that one first.* After the incidents at the convention center, Rage and the crew must now take on a new journey while Rage tries to understand his special ability. Rated M for language and violence.

10. Betrayal

The general let go of Hollow, and Hollow backed up next to Rage.

General Shinkle: Now…please put the gun down.

Rage lowered his gun. Hollow tried to grab his, but it was gone.

General Shinkle: Looking for this?

The general pulled out Hollow's pistol, and aimed it at Hollow.

Rage: WAIT!

Rage and Hollow stared at each other. It seemed that they were trying to talk through their minds.

Rage: I'll do it…sir.

Rage aimed the magnum at Hollow's stomach, and fired. Hollow then fell face-first while clutching onto his stomach.

General Shinkle: Well…done, Rage…I'm glad you've changed your ways.

The general put his gun away, and walked over to Rage while smiling. He put his hand on Rage's shoulder.

General Shinkle: Welcome to the Marine-

Rage jabbed the magnum into the general's stomach, and fired. The general collapsed onto the ground, and Rage walked over to Hollow. Rage helped Hollow stand up. There was no blood or even a bullet hole in Hollow.

Hollow: You're sure as hell good at acting.

Rage: I was worried I actually hit you with the bullet at first.

The two walked over to the bloody general. Blood was spilling out of his mouth. Rage pointed the magnum at the general's head.

General Shinkle: Y-You…how...how…why did you-

Rage: It's because you're weak.

BANG!

Hollow walked over, and grabbed Rage's gear. Rage put the suit on, and took the shotgun.

Hollow: The 3D Maneuver Gear is out of gas.

Rage: Leave it. We'll have to find another way out.

Rage handed Hollow the magnum, and Rage's hood-mask closed.

Rage: A souvenir.

They walked out of the hallway to see three soldiers running towards them with weapons drawn. In a quick succession, Hollow shot one in the head, and Rage blasted the other one away with his shotgun. Right as the last one stopped to aim his rifle at them, a blade went through his head. It then exited the dead man's head, and he fell. Where the soldier was just standing was now Janakin.

Janakin: They're outside in the courtyard. Let's move, guys!

As they all ran out, Rage and Hollow saw the battle going on outside.

Hollow: How did you find us?

Janakin: Apparently, your friend, Ellie, has a tracker on everyone's suit.

The entire crew was outside the heli, and they were in a huge gunfight with the marines. The three then ran over to them, and joined in the battle.
