3 months had passed since the first encounter with Jack or should I say
Ripper. I had been on an ever-constant string of missions and had just been
sleeping off an injury. 3 highly trained Tigers had jumped me. I killed the
three of them, but one of them shot me in the stomach. Thankfully I had
enough energy to walk back to my apartment where Fox helped me out. This
was allot like the injury Moses had. He had only been in bed for about 5
days, but I had been in my bed for about a week. Fox had been helping get
back on my feet.
I was sitting up in bed next to Fox who had pulled up a chair next to me. I had finally regained my strength. My stomach still hurt very badly, I had also been very cold. I had had a blanket on top of me, the blanket was stained with my blood. It didn't matter to me, this was Coppers blanket. Copper and Allen moved out of the apartment, right after Allen got out of the hospital. They were now the bodyguards of Mao Yenrai. Fox and I were the only two people living in the apartment now. She was training under some new guy and was going to graduate in about 3 months. We had been good friends for a few months and I was starting to see her true side. On the outside she was just a common whore looking for her next tool, but on the inside I saw someone just trying to find acceptance.
As I looked over at her I saw sadness in her eyes. I wondered if that sadness was for me. Her eyes had lost their shine and she looked very tired.
F: what are you looking at?
L: Nothing really, you look tired, you should rest.
F I'm not tired.
L: Trust me, you are tired. You look awful.
F: What, are you calling me ugly?
L NO, not all you're very pretty. You just look tired.
F: What did you say?
L: You look tired.
F: No ones ever said that to me before. They've never used those exact words, no ones ever called me pretty. No ones ever said it so kindly, they've all tried to look tough or intimidating, but that's not important to me. I just want someone kind. You're the only person that is truly kind to me.
L: You know I can never be what you want me to be.
F: Can you try?
She leaned her head towards me, as I did towards her. I felt her hot breath across my face as she leaned closer in. She closed her eyes, and I opened mine... t the truth. I could never do this. I turned my head away and got out of my bed.
L: I' hungry, I'm gonna get a sandwich.
Then I left the apartment. That was the last time I would ever see her or the apartment, and that would be the last time I had been confused about what I was.
I walked down the street where HQ was. I opened the doors and slowly walked up to Allen's room. He stayed in a room with the Copper. As I opened the door I was terrified and all became clear, finally.
Inside Vicious was standing over my brother. He was carrying his katana, which was stained with blood. It took me a second to register what had happened. Vicious killed my brother. I couldn't think of any words to say, I just stared at Vicious and at my brother. Vicious had a sadistic grin on his face. I looked to the far left of the room where my brothers two guns were. They were called Kato and Nash. They were shined silver guns with a large 8-inch barrel that was rectangular shaped. I ran to them, I lunged at the table to grab the guns nearly slipping in the process. I had a firm grip on the two guns and I quickly aimed them toward vicious who was right in front of me. I had the two guns right in front of his face, and he had his sword at my throat.
L: Why'd you do it?
V: Your brother was too strong as are you.
L: What..?
V: You don't think I know about your little "trick" you can slow down time, and I'm the only one who seems to notice. I've been on tons of missions with you and it happens every time you fight. I too have a few tricks, one being the power to speed up time, so you wont want to try anything now. The only thing you should try to do is fall on your back.
Then he pushed me backwards. I slid on the wooden table, which held my brothers guns, then I crashed out of the window. I was 19 floors up. And I hit the ground hard and this is where my story ends.
And where Loki's.
