Skullman X: Judgement, and Repentance.
Chapter 1
The night was dark, and damp. The air was humid, and hot. Of course he knew he couldn't really feel those things, but his sensors picked it up. His sensors were so advanced that he could pick up a pin drop at 40 yards away from him. But the only thing he could hear at the moment was the thumping of feet hitng the ground, and curses, and shouts of his persuer. He looked back for a moment to see if he was chasing him, and sure enough he was. Persistent fool, he will give him that. Then again, most Maverick Hunters were.
He couldn't tell where he was going, only trying to concentrate on running away, when he suddenly came into an alley way. He hope the other end was open, as he kept on running. Unfortunately his hopes were diminished when he was stopped dead in his tracks by a large wall. He placed his pale white hands on the wall just to see if it was there, or perhaps an illusion. No such luck. He then slammed his fist into the wall out of frustration, making a crack. "Dammit." He proclaimed.
"End of the line, Maverick."
Skullman X turned to face his would be captor, stepping into the light showing his ghoulish features. He face was fashioned after a human skull without the jaw. His eyes pitch black, with the exception of a red glowing pupil. His armor adorned the look of a rib cage, with a red center jewel, and shoulder pads looking similar to his head. The rest of him held similar designs, his boots having a decoration of a long grey skull on the white material. He cocked his head, as he turned, keeping his hand around his back.
The hunter came within a few feet of Skullman, extending his arm cannon, and gave his quarry a sickening look. the look faded, and offered his best hunters face.
"All right...hands up. You are coming with me, like it or not."
"Is that so?" The ghoulish one said in a deep, dark voice.
Skullman slowly raised his left hand, his right hand also slowly came from behind his back. However, his right didn't go up, instead he jerked his ody with an incredible speed, and threw an object towards the hunter, stroking him dead center on the chest. The hunter doubled over, and made a loud "Urk!" noise. Suddenly the dark alley way was lit up. Whatever the object was that his the hunter emitted a large electrical surge, knocking out the hunters systems, rendering him unconsious.
The hunter dropped down to the ground with a echoing thud. He took a step forward, and and another step, keeping on until he reached the fallen under, lightly kicking him to see if he was out. No movement was made from the hunter, assuring what Skullman knew. If he could have smirked, he would have. He was begining to make his way out of the alley way, when a dark figure steped out in front of the exit.
"Now what..?" Skullman whisperd, a hint of annoyance in his tone.
"Skull man. Please stop this pointless running, and come with me."
Skullman took a step forward, not only to get a better look, but to test the hunter that was there. The hunter didn't move an inch. He then activated his night vision as to get a better look at his new foe. But that wasnt necsisary as the hunter stepped into the light of another lamp post in the alley way, showing exactly who it was. Skullman gasped at who he saw, his red pupils grow small at the sight, and said out of surprise..
"X?!"
