Ch 34: Archangel: Ch 5

Ty's POV

AND NOW WE ARE BACK HERE!

Wait... why am I in a desert? The cracks are still here, but it looks like a desert...

I can see Peace Walker... In the distance...

I try to run after it, but this sand is annoying... Wait...

I'm wearing my Hero Suit...

I could just Parkour over to it...

WHAG! THE LIGHT...

Ugh... Sore... again...

I checked my console. The current progress was 3% on Gecko. Not bad for something as large as I'm making. I got up, got dressed, and went downstairs. Hanako was already down there.

"Good morning!" I said. She jumped a little.

"Um... Ty? I've been meaning to ask, but what ability would I have?" Hanako asked.

"Hmm... I have no idea... We just need to wait for it to start manifesting." I said. I started getting the pan warmed up when I smelled something odd from where Hanako sat. It smelled of roses and... Blood? I turned around and Roses were covering Hanako's body, which was sitting still on the couch. I ran over to her and blood was trickling down from where the roses cut.

"It begins..." I said. Hanako was still awake and was staring at me.

It is now 1830. Hanako is still surrounded. I made breakfast, so mat least I would not be that hungry by the time she gets out of it. After a few minutes of staring at the fruit basket, I heard falling plant life. I looked at her and there were cuts everywhere.

"Ugh..." She moaned. She tried to get up, but barely managed to get up before pain kept her down. I helped her up to the bathroom and sat her down on the toilet, then i took one of our potted plants and placed it nearby her.

"I know this might hurt, but can you make a few leaves come out of these stems?" I asked her. I pointed to some stems of the plant, and almost instantly, a branch formed. "Was that you're doing?" I asked. She nodded. "Well, at least shower. Mainly to get the blood off of yourself. I will take care of the couch." I said. I left the room and I heard the shower turn on.

Vybe's POV

It is 1130. We went to our refugee camp to transport more Octolings to the surface. Ty said he has people working on a secret project before we came down here. I just hope it's ready by the time everyone is ready for war. Me and Ty are outside the main tent, and we hear something.

"Mine mine mine mine mine mine mine mine mine mine..."

"What is that?" Ty asked. I shrugged. We continue looking around, and then Ty looked up.

"Mine mine mine mine mine mine mine mine mine mine mine mine mine mine mine"

Ty is then suddenly landed on by a purple Octoling in a trench coat. Her tentacles looked like they were mechanical and also parts of her face. Ty was ok, I knew that, but he was faking his pain.

"Mine" The Octoling said, turning to me. She then stepped on Ty. Multiple times. This was hurting my heart... Ty was getting pummeled by a robotic leg and all I could do was sit there? This isn't me. That is my husband... getting hurt... THIS... RUSTLES... MY... JIMMIES!

Ty's POV

S-s-sparks? Sparks were flying everywhere. This cyborg didn't notice it at all.

Vybe was at the center of the sparks. The area around us was getting darker as the sparks picked up. The cyborg finally noticed the sparks, but continued to stomp on me.

"HYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!" Vybe screamed, sending what could amount to a quarter of the Inkopolis power grid at the cyborg. The cyborg literally got launched into the walls of these fake sky-scapes. Vybe didn't stop sparking. In fact, it got worse. Electricity was flying everywhere, scorching the ground, burning holes through the tents, Wood catching aflame.

Suddenly, the HUD from my suit failed. This is bad. She is producing EMP.

That metal leg was able to get past and harm my physical body, and now my vision is blurry from the pummeling I just received. Not only that, but we have an enraged Vybe that is literally going to kill us all.

"Exterminate!" I heard something from far off say, and multiple shots were fired directly at Vybe. Vybe just evaporated them like nothing. She didn't even flinch.

"Grrrrrrr..." Vybe growled. She stomped the ground and a chunk of rock floated upwards. Vybe then sent the rock flying in the direction of the cyborg. Judging by the sounds from where it was, it didn't hit.

"Retreat." Were the last words of the cyborg before it flew off, never to be seen again. Vybe was still pissed.

"V-v-Vybe..." I tried getting up. It hurts... my stomach... but I must... "VYBE!"

Even through my shouting, she stood there, everything around us nearly going up in flames. I staggered over to Vybe. The electricity was hitting me, but I didn't care. What matters most is that these escapers stay alive. If I have to die here because of my enraged wife, then so be it. The only thing I believe in right now, with absolute certainty, is my mission to calm down Vybe before we all die here with no one to stop her.

"Vybe!" I shouted. She didn't hear me. In a last ditch effort, I go behind her and rub the spot behind her right ear. The electricity is not going to stop me. I notice that the Electricity is starting to tone down. This is working... She's calming down...

"Gyah..." Vybe said, before stopping suddenly. No more sparks. Finally. I smell smoke... My lungs feel like charcoal...

"egh..." I moaned, and then I collapsed. My vision is blurry... Vybe is running to me... I can't hear a thing... I can't feel anything... I closed my eyes...

Ty! Akio! Come here for a few minutes!

I ran down the hall, my dad holding a very decorated sword: Engravings all over the blade, the hilt with the same engravings, the handle was woven leather, and the butt was the same as the rest of the sword.

"Guys, never use this unless you absolutely need to." My father said. He lifted some of the floorboards and put the sword under them, then replaced the floorboards. "Understood?"

Me and my brother nodded.

"Ty?" I heard something say. I looked around, and suddenly everything was darkness.

"TY!" I heard again. I see a light. It's pretty and all... but I don't want it... The light is fading...

"TY COLORIAN!" I keep hearing that voice... Wait, I know who it is... Vybe...

Vybe? She's my wife... Oh my god am I dead? I can't be dead yet! I NEED TO RETURN!

"TY!" I heard Vybe say. I opened my eyes. Everything is blurry right now... The voices I'm hearing are just mumbles...

"Ty? Can you hear me?" I heard Vybe ask. I nod, and a sharp pain comes over me.

"O-o-ow..." I stutter. "Vybe, is that you dear?"

"Yes!" I hear Vybe shout. My ears are ringing now.

"Too loud..." I mumbled.

"Sorry..." Vybe said. She sniffed. "We got the refugees out. They are safe..."

"Good..." I said. "Everything hurts..."

"Well, yeah. I would expect so... You had burns everywhere, but they healed very fast. Your nerves are probably still hurt, so that may take longer to heal..."

"Vybe..." I said, then coughed. "Do you remember... anything?"

"Yes..." Vybe said. "Ty, I'm so sorry..."

"Don't be... honey... you saved me... that leg managed to hurt me... I don't know how..." I said. My lungs still feel like charcoal. "Not to mention... my lungs still feel like charcoal..."

We sat there for what felt like a long time, staring into each other's eyes. I then tried to get up. Pain everywhere... but I must push my body... I finally sat up. Vybe sat next to me on the couch.

"Do we have any damn pain-killers?" I asked.

"Yes, let me go get them." Vybe said, running upstairs. I sat there, pain still flowing throughout my body. I felt accomplished. I completed the mission of making new lives instead of multiple dead ones. Vybe finished her end, and I did mine. I hear Vybe running back downstairs and stopping.

"Hanako, what are you doing?" Vybe asked. I looked ahead and I noticed a red bow. Hanako was standing in front of me. I noticed weird particles... I was breathing them in... I coughed more and my lungs didn't feel bad anymore. What did she just do?

"Daddy, please stay with us." Hanako said.

"Well, now drink up honey." Vybe said, giving me a glass of water and two capsules. I put the capsules in my mouth and then drank all the water. Now with the pain killers in my stomach, I should start feeling better soon.

"Thanks... both of you..." I said. I leaned back. "What a day..." I sat up. "What time is it?"

"About 15:45." Vybe said.

"You got them out of there that quick?" I asked.

"Yep." Vybe said.

"I need a nap..." I said. I went back to lying down on the couch.

Vybe's POV

It is now 1900. Ty just woke up and is feeling way better, and is talking with Jericho. I went over to the kitchen and sat on one of the stools. I am distraught. To think I nearly killed everyone... and let that cyborg get away... And also getting called "Thunder Thighs" by Aizel... Actually... Thunder Thighs isn't that bad sounding...

Ding-dong!

"Huh?" I asked. Ty sat there still.

Ding-dong!

"I might as well get it" I said. I walked to the door and opened it. An Octoling and a purple haired male inkling stood at the door. "Hello?"

"Um... Is Ty there?" The Octoling asked. At hearing his name, Ty turned around and stared.

"Yes, and recovering." Ty said. "What brings you here, Bic?"

"We had a... situation... pop up..." The inkling said.

"Well then come on in..." Ty said.

"Not so fast. Ty, who are these people?" I asked.

"Bic and 6." Ty said. "And let them in, they won't harm us."

"Alright, I trust you." I said. I let them in.

"Arrighty then..." Ty said before coughing. "...ah, excuse me."

Ty is so adorable when he's ill... I need to stop thinking that...

Now we introduce Hanako's ability: Botanist. The power over plants.

And DA wanted me to add Mecha Trinity in. specifically with "Mine mine mine mine mine mine mine...".

And now I officially bring in Bic and 6. I didn't spoil shit because she didn't want me to do so.

AND OMG SHE FINALLY GETS THE NICKNAME THUNDER THIGHS! It was bound to happen. Shush your mouths.

and on that note... I released a Lemon... SCREW ME SIDEWAYS!
