Bonjour, my friends. How's everyone? Well, I am so happy to see 20+ reviews, really I am. You guys are making me blush with all the cool things you're saying about my story. I am truly touched. Oh yeah, I don't even know where I came up with Randt's whole evil concept….it just popped into my head. For those who need a synopsis, Ava and Randt were on there date and with all the turnaround Randt reveals that he murdered her older sister, he can speak Al Bhed just as good as anyone else, he injected her with Rohypnol (A drug that's commonly used for rape to knock girls out. Also known as Roofies) and he intends to kill both her and Wolf if the Cornerians don't get to him first. As for Wolf's side of the story, he and Julia (Dr. Yarborough) kissed and made up (literally) and they were on there way back to the observation deck for there long awaited mission briefing. Before he realizes it, Wolf will be in the fight of his life. Well, it's getting near the three-way end…..sooner than we all think. In the end I might make three one-shots for the ending. Thanks to Ben Stylin for that idea! I am so honored to have Fox the Cave review my fanfic….makes me so happy! Here goes, Part VIII, ready or not!
Ava-Vincent by Sol-Ratcht Saporro
"Randt has gone too far this time…..So far, that I am afraid of what I am going to do to him. I might scare my own self. "---Ava-Vincent
Ava's Narrative
As I lay there in an unconscious state, I had no idea what was going to happen to me. Will I die? Will Wolf die? Is my sister really dead? Oh God, I hope not…..I really hope not. I just wish somebody would help me….please, someone help. It's like going into a deep, deep sleep……and you don't have the power to wake up….It's next door to being dead except the only thing is you can breathe….My only desire is to wake up……WAKE UP!
Meanwhile in 3rd Person POV
Randt noticed Ava's motionless body on the couch and muttered, "Sweet, sweet Ava. Why do little girls like you piss me off so easily? Heh. I guess it's time to do what I do best…." He walks over to Ava and picks her up over his shoulder and proceeds to carry her into the bedroom. Randt is observing the lovely layout as her gently places Ava on his bed, clothes and all still in tact.
"Hmmmm….now, what should I do? Oh, I'll go get that "tool" right about now……" A long sadistic laughter followed and Randt left the room
Ava still lying limp and as frigid as steel…..as the time passed her….all she could do was pray in her mind that Randt would have enough heart to let her live with all her body parts.
Ava's Narrative: Thought Process
Sigh- I hope Randt is not hurting me too badly…..for all I know this animal could tear me apart and impregnate me. Sniff sniff…..I….just want him to leave me be… Because Randt has gone too far this time…..So far, that I am afraid of what I am going to do to him. I might scare my own self.
Moments Later….
Oooh! I felt a cold wind….I wonder….how could I if I am in a deep sleep?
Wolf's Narrative
Julia was going at it with the mission as we were in tune supposedly. I couldn't keep my mind off Ava. I just couldn't. I wonder if she's still okay. I hope she's enjoying her normal life. I wonder if I am even going to be able to go back to her…?
"Wolf…..Wolf? Please pay attention. This is the most crucial moment of the briefing. I will now explain the adjustments of the Wolfens okay?"
"Oh, okay. I apologize." I turned my attention towards Julia and the others. But I still had Ava on my mind.
"Now the four of your Wolfens have new adjustments as you can see here….." A monitor comes up and reveals the blueprint sketch of the all-important Wolfen III. "As you can see the Wolfen's first weapon was for the standard plasma lasers has been amplified to crash lasers. With these, you can easily penetrate shield strength and take out wings left and right from any vessel. The thing with the standard lasers was the low concentration of protons in each plasma pod. So, all we did was add more protons in the mix and there you have crash lasers. The only con…." Julia stopped midway and noticed Andrew walking in. "Mr. Oikonny, glad you could make it. Are you alright sir?"
"Yes…." Was his response and everyone else turned around except me….I didn't want to see that pussy….the sound of his voice even pisses me off. So I kept my eyes on Julia only.
"Okay, Mr. Oikonny, I was just going over your new primary weapons, the crash lasers. If you'd like after briefing we could go over them in the Q and A session. Sounds good?"
"Yes."
"Okay, like I was saying, the only con with the crash lasers is that they take a little more recharge time than Hyper Lasers. In proportion, the power is immense, so that makes up charging time. Now, onto the secondary weapons……" The Monitor clicked again still focusing on the Wolfen at a different viewpoint. "These right here are the new innovation of the Laws of Physics, in which I know you don't want me to go over because nobody's really into science, these are NEANRA cluster bombs. Not like your average NOVA bombs, these are computer operated bombs. They can do one of three things: One, Explode, in which all bombs do but with the effect of a small atomic bomb. Two, they can jam communicator devices and towers. Finally, three, they can seal what ever you like within a 50 mile radius. But gentlemen, when there is a pro there is a con so listen up. We only can have one for each ship each time you dock, so please use it with the utmost strategic way."
At that point, Leon pointed one finger up to signify a question.
"Yes, Mr. Polwalski, a question?"
"Besides the Wolfen, are there devices we could use when we are on foot?"
"I was just getting to that. But, let me explain the other features we did with the Wolfen then I will go on with your question. Is that okay?"
"Sure….no problem."
"Okay, other generic stuff that we did was, remodel the engine with a flame/spark retardant steel encasing to induce the chances of the engine catching fire. A communicator descrambler to prevent communication jamming. Sealing the wings with a 4 to 5 purity ratio steel so your wings are more protected and upsized your booster fuel intake with bigger tanks."
"Hmph….that's all?" Andrew scoffed
"Yes, that's all….what do you think we're made of money? If so, you need to take those bandages off your head and make sure parts of your brain aren't missing." Julia snapped. I don't believe Andrew. Although her comment made the three of us snicker.
"That's it…..you are dead you fucking bitch! YAAAAAAAAH!" Andrew got up from his seat and lunged at Julia with all his might and Julia simply just took a step back raised her knee to about chest-level and at the right moment (which was when Andrew tripped over the table in the middle of the room and slid right under her foot face down) forcefully step on his back.
"Idiot….." Julia adjusted her glasses "Watch where you're going and maybe I would consider you a REAL threat." She moved her foot continuously as if putting out a cigarette on the floor. Andrew winced in pain as she dug her foot deeper into his back.
"Aaaargh….ack! Okay okay! I am sorry…..AHH!" As she used the heel of her shoe to dig into his spinal cord, Andrew bellowed out in pain." O-o-OKAY! I give up! I quit!"
"What the hell are you babbling about monkey? Sit your ass down and shut up. Let Dr. Yarborough talk for once." I stopped this entire BS once and for all. Leon and Pigma nodded with agreement
"I quit! Didn't you hear me? I am no longer in Star Wolf! I am Andross's nephew and I deserve better!" Andrew ranted on the floor. Julia took her foot off him and walked over towards me. Then, Andrew got up and started his bitching. "I am outta this dump! I will reign as his successor and you four along with this whole facility will be under my rule! As for you Dr. Yarborough, I'll get you before all this is over…..just you wait. As well as you too Wolf! HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAAHAH!" Andrew left the observation wing with that annoying high-pitched laughter of his.
"Hmmm….you wish." Julia said as Andrew left the room
"Julia…..I'd still be wary of his intent. He may be stupid and all, but he sometimes he can mean what he says…." I warned her with both hands on her shoulders.
"Wolf, don't worry about me…..I'll take care of myself." She turned to my side "What can he do….?"
"I don't know but watch out for him okay?"
"Okay you have my word. Now, Gentlemen, shall we finish up with briefing? I guess I will fill in Andrew's spot as your fourth team member."
"WH-WHAT?" I couldn't believe my ears "Julia, no….NO! I don't want to put you in any danger. I can't do that to ANY woman…..That's very noble of you but I just can't live with the fact that you could die in Corneria….no way."
"Wolf….please. It's my fault for having your fourth member leave. I have to do something and this is the only way I see fit. This is my redemption, live with it."
"…….Julia….." As I think on what could happen to her if she came with us, she could die, be captured or get seriously injured. "Alright, fine. You are now a temporary member of Star Wolf. But you better not put me in a coma worrying about you. Okay?"
"Yes, sir!" Julia smiled and gave a proper salute.
What a woman…I actually admire her. Leon observed as Julia and I shook hands then hugged.
She's my kinda girl….I'll do my best to protect her and make sure she comes back safe. "Hey yous guys, we all gotta stick togetha as a team right? So, we really gotta look out for each other when we are in Corneria, right guys?" Pigma cheered on
"Wow, for once you are making sense Pigma….." I said and we all laughed whole-heartedly. Wow, we actually are connecting as a team. I guess Andrew quitting was the best thing that ever happened to Star Wolf…..Thank you Julia, for everything. I held Julia even tighter as we almost finished laughing and I couldn't erase that smile off my face. Not yet.
"Ey, Wolf, you gunna let our newest member go or what? We still gotta go over the other gizmos for da mission."
"Hey, Pigma, you are getting smarter by the minute. Did you take some of Andrew's brain when he was unconscious?" Leon asked with a smile
"Naw that would've put me in a worse state." We all bursted out with laughter once again. It felt really good to laugh, not only that but to see others laugh as well. It puts me in a more positive mood and I know I'll be making a trip back to Titania once this is all over.
"Whoo-hoo-hoo….okay…Ahem. These weapons are designed for on-foot attackers. How many of us are on foot?" Julia got back to business. I love that about her.
"You, me and Leon. Pigma prefers to stay in the air."
"Oh okay. So, here's the layout." The monitor reappeared and we see an arm band with a large LCD in the inset of the figure. "Here is the wrist module. It serves as a map, communicator and can deflect most blaster shots….the only thing is that the deflection part is on the outside not the inset part. If any shots touched it it's as good as disintegrated. Got it?"
We all nodded in agreement.
"Good. So, there's another little thing for us land-dwellers as well. It's actually a combination device so here it is on the monitor." And the monitor clicked to reveal a spray can and what seemed to be a chest protector that's computerized. "Here is the stealth suit and thermal inducer for thermal vision equipment. You all know how to operate a stealth suit correct?"
"Yes." Leon answered "But what is the thermal inducer all about?"
"Oh, the thermal inducer is simply a liquidized super anti-perspiring gel that's made in the laboratory to confuse the thermal detection systems and make us seem invisible to the radar."
"That's great Julie! Is there anything else to go over?" I asked
"No, not for now, but I'll call everyone if there is an emergency development on the rise. So with that being said my fellow teammates let's go into the carrier aircraft and head out for Corneria!" Julia yelled out in high spirits.
"Yeah!" We all corresponded back. We all headed out to the docking bay.
Just as I was going to go over and ask a young ferret lad in a soldier's uniform, conveniently informed us that the carrier would leave in 45 minutes. I nodded and he gave me a salute. "Good luck sir."
"Thank you comrade." I saluted back and nodded for him to leave. I paced towards everyone else who was patiently waiting for my arrival. "Okay everyone, I had just gotten word that our carrier leaves within 45 minutes, so let's get everything together and be back within that time limit alone. Got it everyone?"
"Got it." Julia's response
"Gotcha." Pigma's response
"Yes, sir." Leon's response
"Okay then…..let's regroup at the time specified." Then we all split our ways….But I had to ask Julia something. "Hey….. Hey….Julia….JULIA!"
"Something wrong Wolf?"
"I had this on my mind….."
"Yeah?"
"Are you going to wear that to enemy grounds?" Pertaining to her white lab coat, black skirt suit set and high heels… "No offense, but they aren't going to think you are serious battling in those clothes."
"Well…..I just have to change outfits and accessorize don't I?"
"Heh….call it what you want to but….I was just offering some advice."
"Don't worry, just be here in 45 minutes…..and you'll see that I, myself, don't take this as all fun and games."
"OOOH! Okay…I believe you. See you in 45 minutes Mrs. Badass Scientist."
"Okay!" Julia couldn't help but chuckle a tad, Hell I couldn't either. She and I walked our separate ways….but, I do wonder, will I come out alive…? Only time will tell…..
Meanwhile in 3rd Person POV: Venom
A shadowy figure lurks behind the docking bay waiting in Julia's direction…..It's breathing is elongated due to all the fury it's holding back….This shadow belonged to none other than……Andrew.
"Just you wait, bitch…..You think you can get away with taking my spot and my pride? Do you think a woman can win over Andrew Oikonny, the NEW emperor of Venom? If you think so, YOU have another thing coming to you…..Just you wait….." Andrew muttered in sheer anger and rage as he observes Dr. Yarborough walking over his way…..
"Just you wait." He disappears into the wing of rooms awaiting his target Dr. Julia Yarborough
Ava's Narrative: Thought process
Oh….I just want to wake up. This is killing me……Actually I feel like I am already dead. Wait a minute……If I felt a cool breeze that means that the drug's working life is way past due……And That means…..
Meanwhile in 3rd Person POV
Ava's eye pupils twitched and she immediately rose from the bed….She rubbed her eyes and was wary of all her surroundings; she got up out of the bed and peeked her head out into the hallway and saw Randt pull out a large cutting knife and a sharpening agent.
"That sick and twisted freak is certainly going to kill me…..but I won't let that happen….No….he needs to be taught a lesson and I am going to be the one to do it." Ava said quietly to herself. She observes him sharpening the knife and doing it in a singsong tune. "That sick freak…."
"Huuuh! He's coming this way! I gotta go back to where I was…." Ava dashed towards the bed in haste as the footsteps of Randt were getting closer and closer…..She plopped herself on the bedand pretended as if she was still subdued by the drug.
Randt a split-second later entered the bedroom. Twirling the knife in hand….. "Oh Ava, Ava, Ava….my you look absolutely stunning even when you are out cold. Hmmmm….this brings back memories of your beautiful sister as well…..I am certainly going to enjoy making love to you then doing away with your body. A simple pleasure yes…." Randt squinted his eyes and hinted that smile that stole Ava's heart away and advances closer towards her "limp" body "Hmmmm….." He starts slitting a line down her dress to expose her underwear.
Ava looks up for a second and sees him looking at her body very closely. What a pervert and a dickwad…..I am so getting him. Then she closes her eyes once more but not all the way.
Randt then retraces the knife up to her throat and proceeds to come back down to her chest and says, "Where shall I begin to cut? Hmmmm….Decisions…..Decisions…" He waved the knife sideways from left to right.
Just then Ava, caught his wrist and replied, "Nowhere…." With such passion and hatred
"Aaahh….what the fuck?" Randt backed up to the door in shock "You are supposed to be knocked out…..How the fuck did you….? Grrrr….doesn't matter….You WILL die Ava-Vincent….that's one thing. Another thing is I will have Wolf's head on a silver platter as well and you two lovebirds can join Mikaru's grave all side by side…..Wouldn't that be wonderful?" He asks her in a mock amused tone.
Ava quickly sprung out of bed and warned Randt, "Well there is only two things I see wrong with that picture….One, Mikaru's not dead…I know it and number two, you are going to be the one to die, head on a silver platter and your carcass can rot in the middle of the desert for all I care because YOU WILL NOT HARM ME OR WOLF! Do you understand?"
"Hahhahahahaha……you are forgetting who's really got the upper hand Vincent. You are trying to challenge me on my turf? Please…… You wouldn't last a second of your God's time. You better beg me on your hands and knees to inject you with that drug again because the pain you will feel….you'd want to commit suicide."
"Randt, hear me out…..you WILL die and nothing under this roof will prevent you from your fate….I SWEAR IT! I will make sure everything in my power that you will never terrorize anyone again."
"Comeon babe, show me what you got." Randt teased her with the knife in hand and motioned with his finger with the other hand
"I'll show you alright…..I'll show you." Ava's final words before the two clash……a fight risking her life. Oh, Wolf…..I wish you were here to help me….But I must be strong…..I can't let him see my fear or he will kill me…..Ava…..I am ready to fight!
End of Part VIII
Sol-Ratcht's Commentary
Two fights….I never would have thought I'd be able to even drift into them…..This is going to be fun making up! Well, I am on the fence whether to do Wolf's solo chapter first or Ava's solo chapter first…..? Hmmmm……maybe you guys could help me decide huh? In your review tell me which would you like to see first and I'll get cracking on it right away! I will say right off the bat; both leading characters will change almost dramatically….And these fight sequences are going to be Looong…..I can ensure that much. Well the ending will almost come before you know it…..It's been a pleasure writing this chapter and the future ones to come…..Bye for now!
