Chapter 14: Engagement part 2

WITH NEO

Neo was doing her best to avoid Nexus but because of his invisibility he kept getting the drop on her. She used her illusions to try and level the playing field and it help to some extend. Every so often he would attack a fake her instead of the real one allowing her to get a hit off him.

After a bit of this it seemed his aura was draining because of his extended use of his semblance. He became visible again and spoke.

"Your much better than I anticipated. But this game has gone long enough its time to end this." he says turning his swords into guns and shooting her.

Neo uses her umbrella and blocks the shots but he uses this opportunity to rush in and jump over the umbrella and behind her. Neo though he was going to try and jab at her to she went to grab his arm. Instead however he grab her arm and tried to twist the umbrella out of her hand.

She uses her flexability to twist her body in a more comfortable potition and kicks him hard in the chest. This stuns him for a second before he tries to slash her with his sword.

They end up locking blades looking at each other. That was until Nexus used his free hand to point the other gun he had at her face and shoot her. She was blown back and he grabs her leg midair and slams her into the ground. He would have went for another one if it were not for the fact she managed to jab his hand with her bladed umbrella.

She gets up and gets imeidiatly on the defensive. She clearly underestimated this guy and tries to think of a way to take him down. As she thinks this however he uses his leg to sweep hers from under herself, she moves out of the way only to meet the sharp end of his blade into her side.

She gets hit and barley moves out of the way of another strike he had. She then notices that her aura is very low and a few more hits will most likely cause her to loose her aura completely.

"How disappointing I expected more of a challenge. I thought with those illusions you would put up more of a fight, clearly I was wrong." he says gloating her. Neo is angered by this but keeps her head.

Nexus was about to attack again when Daud comes flying in. He is clearly not in the best shape as evident by his depleted aura and bloody face, his semblece is activated but several parts of his body have parts which are not protected.

In thorough the now broken wall walks in six. Who doesn't even seem that hurt to be honest. He is holding a large orange glowing shoulder cannon on his shoulder.

"Im afraid this looks as if we have to continue this another time." nexus says looking at the very injured Daud then back at Neo.

"Ill see you again, hopefully you put up more of a fight next time." he grabs Daud and uses a grenade and a combination of his semblance to run away.

"DAMN IT DON'T LET THEM ESCAPE." Six yells to Neo as he runs off to see if he can catch them along with Neo in tow.

WITH ROMAN.

Roman rushed in to the Brute fully on ending this fight as quickly as possible. The man tries to use his Chainsaw to hit Roman but he easily moves out of the way and slams his cane into the brutes arm.

The brute takes this in stride and tries to grab Roman again only to find his Cane in his face again. He shoots of a round pushing the brute back, he shoots several more rounds at the Lt but this time the Lt blocks the attacks the best he could.

He blocks several rounds and rushes roman again. Roman uses his cane to stop a strike at his side and ducks under the chainsaw. He then shoots the mans legs causing the brute to fall as Roman shoots another Round into the back of his head.

"Damn I'm hardly doing any damage to him. The only thing that really hurts him is a massive amounts of explosives and my cane isn't enough for that." Roman Tries to think up of another plan and looks around.

The paladins are still shooting at the bullheads and troops six brought, most of the paladins have been destroyed but a few are still holding on thanks to the drivers. He sees that most of the white fang members here have been killed or defeated. The only ones left are the few paladins and several Bloody claw assassins.

Torchwick then face palms after realizing something. He is in a entire facility full of dust and he can even see several large crates with dust in them perfect for this brute who ruined his favorite hat.

The Lt after recovering gets up and charges Roman, Roman moves out of the way of the strike and jumps back a bit. He does this several times until he finally reaches the crates of dust he then goes around the LT after dodging another one of his attacks.

Roman pulls out a cigar and lights it before lifting his cane to the LT. This action shocks the LT for a second

"You know you should really pay attention to your surroundings." Roman says pointing his cane above the LT.

The LT is confused by this until he looks behind him and sees the several dust creates. He looks back at Roman.

"Son of a bitch." he says before Roman fires his cane. The LT is engulfed in the explosion.

"Dumb dog." Roman says with a smirk and begins walking away.

He stops walking however after he hears the sound of the Chainsaw the LT. Used. He looks back and sees the Lt walk out of the Explosion.

"You've got to be fucking kidding me." Roman says in a mix of shock,surprise and annoyance.

He looks at the LT. And is at least happy with the fact that it has done some clear damage to him. He sees that his aura is completely drained. He has several burns on his arms and has parts of his armor missing, he also has a few shrapnal pieces in him. Curiously enough his mask still seems to be in good condition.

He may still be alive but he is just barley hanging in there. He obviously wont put up much of a fight now. Roman was going to shoot at him again until a random assassin made him focus his attention to him.

The assassin rushes roman with his sword and tries to slash him. Roman easily blocks these strikes and hits the man in the head then jabs him in the gut, uppercuts him with the cane and finishes him off with a shot to the head with remove it from his body.

He looks back to see the LT got away by climbing into one of bullheads they had. He also sees Daud and his brother nexus there. Daud looks obviously banged up he even has his robotic arm missing.

Nexus however is the least damaged out of all of them. Besides a few obvious slash marks on his armor his is mostly fine. This got Roman slightly worried because he didn't know if Neo was OK.

Thankfully however he saw Neo with six who was trying to shoot at the Bullhead. It unfortunately managed to escape as one of the last Paladins attacked six forcing him to let them go as he delt with it.

Roman continued smoking his cigar and approached six.

WITH SIX

I was angry that Daud, Nexus and The LT got away. But I at least knew we disrupted a very large base of operations for the white fang as well as several paladins and a very large shipment of Dust.

If the white fang were not at war with me before they sure as hell are now. Roman walks up to me with a cigar in his mouth and I noticed his hat is missing.

"What happend to your hat?" I ask he scowls at this.

"Damn mutt ripped it in half. didn't even get to make him pay for it." he says, he looks over to Neo and sees how banged up she is. Out of all three of them she is the most damaged.

"You alright Neo?" Roman asks with some concern in his voice. Neo just rolls her eyes and shakes her head to confirm she is alright.

I chuckle at this. "Aww look Roman the mother hen." I say he gives me a deadpan look and Neo silently laughs a little at this.

"Anyways now that most of the base secured I want you guys to see if you can find anything of use. They have something that details there plans and such." I say to both of them they nod there heads and walk off.

I hear Torchwick grumble at being a mother hen but I ignore it. I then move to go see if I could find anything myself and see if there are anything salvageable here.

FEW HOURS LATER

After salvaging what we could there were no documents or anything that could tell us what they were planning. The only room that could have such things was destroyed most likely during our attack.

We decided to take what we could get and we took all the wrecked paladins and remaining dust and left. Me Roman and Neo went back to the casino while most of the troops left to put all the items we salvaged into several warehouses that I owned.

After entering the casino we all decided to rest for the night so I went to my room and Torchwick and Neo went to do who knows what. My room was very nice it was much more beautiful than even my lucky 38 suit.

Thinking about my old suit I realized something. when no will I even make it back? Do I even want to leave? The truth was I had many things here new friends and now a responsibility to protect the earth. But I also had a responsibility back home I had friends more friends there than here.

Not only that how will I even make it back? I haven't had the time to work on my transponder but even when I did I made no progress. How long will it take to make my way back and to create such a item? Even if I do will this world meet with mine? I don't want that to happen.

If the people here or back home heard about each other that could spell war.,A war I wouldn't know who side with.,A war that could wipe us both out. I shook my head of these thoughts.

'NO not now. Right now you are here and right now this world needs you to help protect it from whatever the hell the queen is. Even if this isn't your world you still can't let people die. Never again." I think to myself.

I look in the mirror of my bathroom after I had a shower. I see the scar of the bullet holes on my forehead. No matter what my home is the Mohave its what made you its who you are. But for now you can forget all that right now you can be a hero that you once were.

And with those encouraging words I go to my bed and decide to try and sleep. But as I slept there was a feeling I had. A feeling that told me that my world will meet this one. Maybe not in the way I was thinking like a portal opening and dozens of wasteland or Grimm creatures spill out on either side.

No it was a feeling that something from my past will come for me. Something that I feared but what could it be? There was nothing I was afraid of nothing that sent shivers down my spine. After everything I have went through nothing could make me be afraid.

I was greatly sadden when I found out I was wrong.

That was chapter 14 hope you all enjoyed. I wonder if you all can figure out what six feeling love to see your thoughts.

Now I have a very important thing to say to you all. For the next week or two depends really two at the maximum I'm going to be doing some rewrites of the previous chapters. I feel some of them need work and are really bad so don't expect a new chapter for next week or two. I will post a chapter for my other story the reluctant courier shamless plug. But after that, that story will also have rewrites The rewrites might be small to entire changes in chapters. Anyways see you all next time
