Fight for the future

Chapter 3: Evil within.

Authors notes: I'm going to go more into Adam's past and he seems so calm because he's been fighting for so long, it's second nature to him.

'' Thoughts

There once was a familiar face
Battle scars in disarray
A simple man, power drunk
No worries of living, no more anything

Deep inside I've seen it rise
Bastards possesses to no end
Mirror, mirror, please look inside
Do you see the evil that's within?

Pyramids of dead men and dogs
Spoils of war so they say
Once burned, forever marked
Hurt by just a few but so many have to pay

Deep inside I've seen it rise
Bastards possesses to no end
Mirror, mirror, please look inside
Do you see the evil that's within?

Pressure coming down
Down on me, gonna break
Broken fingernails
Digging in, scratch your face

Nervous, like a cat
Gonna jump through my skin
Shadows on the wall
Stretching out, grope for me

Evil, evil
Evil, deep in me
Evil, let me be
Evil, let me bleed
Evil, set me free
Evil, set me free
Evil, set me free
The evil that's within

Megadeth: Evil within.

Adam wakes up with sweat running down his face 'a dream, just a fucking dream…' he keeps thinking over and over to himself slowly reaching for his sword and pulling it out slowly before swinging it round and stopping short at Mina's neck, "sorry mom." He says before putting it away.

"One thing I'd like to know?" she asks Adam "What?" he replies "Just who is your father?" "I can't remember him, I've been fighting for too long" he says before grabbing his sword again "get out of here!" he shouts to Mina when Serena phases through a wall with a black sword slowly walking towards Mina when Adam gets in the way before blocking a downward strike by Serena.

"Who the hell are you?" she demands.

"I'm someone sent from a different future to stop you." He replies before stopping another strike as Artemis walks in "What's going on in here?" he asks, "Get over here you furball." He shouts at Artemis whilst blocking Serena's attacks "I AM NOT A FURBALL!" he shouts as he walks over and Adam picks him up with his free arm and jumps out of a window and lands on the ground with a thud.

"I'm getting way too old for this." He says to himself as he stands back up and puts the sword back in its scabbard and looks back up at the window he had jumped out of before he puts Artemis back down. "Look Artemis, I need a guide because I don't know my way around this timeline," he says to the white cat and follows him as he runs off they later arrive at the shrine, Adam looking knackered walks up the steps to find Raye and the others sat in the shrine gardens.

"What happened to you?" Raye asks Adam as he picks up Artemis by the scruff of his neck "you're lucky I'm not going to skin you alive furball." He says to Artemis before putting him down, "my mom here?" he asks only to receive no answer "ADAM" he turns round and sees a teenage Rini running towards but seeing as he comes from a different timeline he pulls out a knife and throws it in the direction of the pink haired teen, she catches it and stops "you're not the Adam I know." She says as she looks at the battle hardened young adult "no, I'm not the Adam from this time." He says as he catches his knife and puts it away "I come from a time of war" he tells her his story and why he's here and sees Rini's face turn white with the stories that he's told her of her alternate self.

"And that's my story, you probably don't believe me." He says to Rini before he walks away and she chases after him and stops him "the Adam I k now, is sort of like you a loner who gets along with Hotaru very well." He laughs to himself "that's funny, the Hotaru from my time my second IC." Before he turns round and looks at Rini "I want to help." "You can by going back to your future" he replies before walking away again "I can't believe what he said to me…"she said to herself when Trista arrives, "can you blame him? The small lady he knows has caused him nothing but pain." She replies before they go to the shrine. Meanwhile Adam walks through town as he left his sword and armour back at the shrine and leaving his tank top that he wears under his armour on leaving his scars on his arms to be seen by people who stare at him before a youma appears and people are running and screaming leaving Adam cracking his knuckles and walking towards the human like youma "I've been looking forward to venting some anger." He says as he punches the youma in the stomach and boots it as he steps back knowing that it was useless fighting a youma with hand-to-hand combat so he runs over to an old metal railing fence he pulls out one of the railings and goes back to the youma intent on kicking it's ass he impales it as the senshi arrive and watch as Adam stamps on its head "FUCKING DIE! YOU FUCKING FUCK!" he shouts at it before it dies, he walks away from the scene and they follow him "I've got a mission to do, and you ain't going to stop me." He says to them before walking away again.
