Author Note-Sorry it took so long to update, but I've been having problems with my computer. I'm going to try and finish out this story now, since it is nearing it's end. So, here we go...
Ryu burst through the endless onslaught of enemies, swinging his sword wildly and hoping that was enough to kill them. The narrow hallway soon broke out into a very narrow metallic bridge where there seemed to be no enemies. Ryu slowed down and panted, trying to regain his stamina. Suddenly, he noticed five red beams searching the ground, coming slowly to him. Ryu looked up and found that the bridge above him was infested with sniper. They were aiming through the metal gratings in the ground. Ryu cursed and began to race across the bridge towards the doorway ahead. The snipers began to fire. Bullets rained down on Ryu. He kept running, hoping his speed would get him out of the situation. Suddenly, he felt pain in his left leg. He tripped and hit the ground with a crushing blow. Ryu then heard a small beep,
"Crap..." Ryu pulled himself up and leapt high in the air, he used his sword and stabbed at a soldier through the gratings. He used his free hand and stuck his fingers through the gratings, keeping himself suspended in air. The bridge below collapsed, there had been C4 on it's main structural points. Ryu quickly sheathed his sword and began using the upper bridge's gratings as monkey bars, swing from one grating to another. He made it to the end and with much anxiety, let go. He plummeted downwards, there was a small ledge of the lower bridge that had remained, and it led into the doorway. Ryu grabbed the ledge and pulled himself up. He crawled into the doorway and propped himself up against a pillar. Using a kunai, he ripped the bullet out. Then he quickly used his scarf to wrap up the wound. Ryu kicked the air to test his leg out, then nodded He stood up and readied himself. "Hold on Kasumi...I'm coming." Ryu muttered.
-Leon-
Leon found himself backed up against a wall. The clones had cornered him. Leon quickly ejected the empty magazine from his gun and put in a new, fully loaded one. The Hayate clone rushed up to Leon and grabbed the gun before he could even cock it. Staring at Leon with empty eyes, he slowly crushed the gun. Leon grunted and quickly pulled his knife from it's sheath around his thigh. He impaled the Hayate clone,
"You got too close." Leon said with a grin. He backflipped, sending the impaled Hayate across the room. He planted his feet on the wall behind him and proplled himself forward, tackling his clone. They two rolled for a while, but Leon ended up on top. He began to punch his clone's face maliciously, blood flew everywhere. Soon, the clone stopped resisting. He was dead. Leon got up and looked at the Hitomi clone. He began to race towards it with his fist raised, but before he even got to it, the clone was suddenly in front of him. It landed one fatal kick to Leon's chest. Leon flew back and hit the wall so hard that it nearly crumbled. Leon groaned, he tried to reach his knife which had landed several feet from him. The Hitomi clone stepped on the knife and kicked it backwards, further away from him. Leon punched the ground and cursed, he shut his eyes and prepared to accept the end. Suddenly, the sound of blood splattering reached his ears. He opened one eye and found the real Hitomi behind the clone holding his knife which was now lodged into the clone's skull.
"You look like you could use some help." Hitomi said with a grin. Leon laughed and pulled himself up,
"Let's try and get to Ryu." He muttered.
"In the cell earlier I hear a guard talking about how 2nd floor leads to the 'Super Computer'. We should go and try to shut that down, maybe it'll help Ryu."
"Good idea, let's get a move on." Leon said as he opened a door leading to the staircase.
-Kasumi-
"Kasumi...what a troubled life you have led. You don't have to worry though, I'll take your identity from here on out." A voice said to Kasumi. Kasumi's eyes flashed open, she stood up and drew her blade. In front of her was her clone.
"I'm going to put an end to this!" Kasumi shouted, racing forward. Her clone leapt forward, Kasumi raced past and her clone landed behind her.
"Too slow..." Kasumi X said. She put her blade to the back of Kasumi's neck. Suddenly, the power shut off. Kasumi X stepped back, shaking wildly, "The...main computer..." She muttered. Kasumi, taking this chance, impaled Kasumi X in the stomach.
"Calm down, Kasumi." A man said. He wore a white lab coat and glasses,
"Who are you?" Kasumi asked.
"The conductor of this wonderful cloning experiment."
"Why did you choose me? Do you understand how much trouble this whole thing as caused me!" Kasumi raced at him, he pulled out a gun and shot her in the foot. She twisted and hit the ground.
"I'll tell you everything, just wait until the next chapter."
-End of Chapter-
Author Note-I'm real sorry it's so short, but I want to save everything for the next chapter. There'll probably be only 2 chapters left. Don't worry, I'll try and make them longer. Oh, don't take what the scientist said seriously. It was just a little joke I felt like putting in. Alright, see you next chapter! (Same thing, 2 reviews gets you it)
