Chapter 08: Duel of Ages
Carpentaria base, sewer system.
Michael and Tessa came to a manhole and it was at their destination. Michael nodded to her as she did the same as he had a small screen go over his right eye. Then a metal tentacle came from underneath Mikes trenchcoat and peered through the manhole cover to get a glimpse of the area. The small screen that was produced infront of his eye showed what his tentacle saw. "The way seems clear, and it seems were are in some type of boiler room or basement." Michael came up with as Tessa began to lift the manhole up and emerged into a room with many pipes. She kept her disassembled sniper in a brief case with her.
"As far as I can tell there are no one around." Tessa said as she let her long green hair loose as she checked the box for her current position. "Ok the best sniper place will be the roof of this building." She said as Michael raised himself from the sewers with four long mechanical arms.
"Now this is interesting, completely nothing around." Mike said as he landed on the floor and began to head up to the roof. He cleared away anything that got in his way and made a clear path for Tessa.
Meanwhile Carter and Flay found an ally way manhole and went through it. Many people walked in the street not far but they were under the cover of darkness. They quickly peeled off their dive suits to their original clothes. Carter had the get up of what Kevin usually wore, a black trenchcoat, but underneath was a black muscle shirt, and he wore black cargo pants. Flay though wore a light red t-shirt and a light red skirt, her hair was also had a majority of her hair in a ponytail. "Any way to tell if our targets are near by?" Flay asked.
"Two ways, first we let them find us, or I just use my senses to find them, Rachel has her mind to find them. And Tessa will scout the areas from her position." Carter assured her.
"And now its time to hunt." Flay said with a smile as at that moment, the other destroyers began to emerge from their manhole covers.
A group of three emerged from a manhole in another ally on the other side of the base. "Man, I hate this already." Tanya said as she was wearing a red and white two piece clothing that consisted of a red shirt that revealed her stomach, and a orange skirt. Next to emerge was a man that wore a black t-shirt, and white pants.
"Hey, were not gods so we can't change what is already done." Tom told her as he stood up with his katana at his side. Next up was the obsidan black haired red eyed girl with green bangs. "So Rachel, you and Hydra had a intimate relationship, and were best friends with Siren, any Idea where they would be?" Tom asked.
"Not that I'm psychic yet I am, I would have to say close to headquarters, but with a family, probably somewhere around the market." Rachel said as she stood sporting her black jeans and a green t-shirt.
"Alright, and try to make sure you detect them or the other Zoanthropes before they can hunt us." Tom said as he began to walk towards the area Rachel thought of.
"Hey, don't worry Rachel, out of the three of us, we actually don't want to kill them." Tanya said trying to reassure her friend. Ever since they were born again, Tanya and Rachel have been the best of friends, they still are as well.
"Yeah your right lets go." Rachel said as the three of them began to scour the base in a group, many of the soldiers were wondering who they are since they never seen them before. Most of the time Rachel's eyes were closed so she could sense Kevin and Aelan before anyone else.
However the other Destroyers were hunting for vengeance of what Kevin had done to them, well all that are at the Carpentaria base, but the ones at ZAFT Lodonia base Biological CPU Labratory. Erica stood against a wall where Simon was searching through a massive list of files of the subject he is looking for. "This is freaking ridiculous, those stupid logos and blue cosmos members are idiots." Simon said as Erica looked over his shoulder.
"How horrible, they had this place to be like for them a kill or be killed enviroment, and people called us monsters." Erica exclaimed as Simon began an upload onto a disc for him to take back to base, of what they found. That was when the alarm went off.
"Heh, I guess we were a bit sloppy on getting in here." Simon said as Erica nodded when she looked through their point of entry while Simon put the disc in a package.
When Erica looked out a soldier had replaced the one she killed while Simon could here Patrol's in the base. "Ok, now lets see, I wonder if I learned any of this." Erica said as she began to take out some putty.
"Uh what are you doing?" Simon asked.
"I may not be a expert, but I am making us a new exit." Erica said as she put the puddy on the wall and began to take out a fuse string and stuck on side in it. She moved back enough for the Fuse to give them a ten second wait for the Plastique explosive to go boom. Simon found a decent place to hide while Erica extended the Fuse. "Ok, we got ten seconds before it goes got it." Erica told him as he nodded. She lit the fuse and hid behind the same table as Simon did, then Ten seconds later, the explosion happened destroying the wall it was on. "Lets go" Erica said as three soldiers entered the hole of smoke. In a matter of seconds however, two of them were knocked out my Erica and the other suffered a broken Neck by Simon.
"Lets go." Simon told her as the two rushed towards the location of the cloaked Cerberous Gundam.
Carpentaria Marketplace. Chris, Kira, Lacus, Meer, Raymond, Erika, Nicola were all taking a stroll down the market place to get what ever they needed as they would be leaving in two days time. "So, what are we going to do today?" Erika asked as perky as she ever is. As they all walked, Raymond just stared off into space as Meer and Lacus both had their arms in their respective husbands arms.
"Hmm, lets see, how about we get something to eat." Lacus said with a grin as Kira nodded.
"That be good, I'm getting kind of hungry." Kira said as Raymond just rolled his eyes at the way his father was acting.
"Lets see, where to?" Chris asked as they continued to walk, but then Kira stopped as he thought he saw something. He just stopped right where he stood as Lacus, and the others looked at him strangely.
"Kira whats. . .?" Chris began as he just had a sudden sensation, one that felt familiar and yet, un familiar.
A few kilometers away, Invictus walked the streets as he did he was being stalked, by Tanya, Rachel, and Tom. 'I know I am being followed.' Invictus thought to himself as he felt his mind being touched by someone, he knew Kevin knows. He kept walking for a while completely aware he was being followed, what he didn't know was how. Because Tom was ontop of a six storie building, with a bionic optic eye, he could see Invictus easily.
"Have you spotted him yet?" Rachel asked through their Mastoid Radio Implant that all the Destroyers were equipped with. Kevin Walker however has been using his on a different channel than the current Destroyers.
"Yes, I have spotted someone that looks like him, but remember reports say that he has one clone on his side." Tom reported as Tanya was beside him and also has found Invictus.
"Yeah and a few blocks from his position is let see, ahh young Ken Walker I see, walking with both the children of Garret Nexus and the ZAFTs Chairman. What are your orders commander?" Tanya asked.
Carter walked down the street as he replied. "Tom, you take the other part of me, and Tanya, Keep an eye on Ken and those other two until Kraken and Talos arrive. You got that right Kraken, Talos?" Carter asked.
"Yes Sir" Michael answered.
"Roger that sir." Charlie answered as he flexed his oversized arms. Charlie then turned to Alan. "Lets go, I have to meet up with Tanya if you wish to continue to do your search be my guest." Charlie said as he bent his legs.
"I'll try to get a hold of any communications in the area. You go ahead, I will notify the others if I find anything." Alan told him as Charlie used the strength in his legs to propel him on top of buildings as he went his seperate way.
Carter however kept peering behind him and Flay, as Flay was walking oddly. "You can sense him can't you?" Jack asked as Flay nodded yes.
"Yeah, Kira is Near." She told him.
"And a Zoanthrope is with him isn't there?" he asked as Flay nodded and flexed her hands where her integrated claws are located.
No more than a few meters behind them Chris was prone to a wall as he looked to Kira and the others. "Kira, get the girls away from here and tell Kevin that some of his and Aelan's old friends are in town." Chris told him as Kira, Lacus, and Meer were all getting everyone away that they could. Carter and Flay however have stopped walking.
"I know you can hear me Nexus!" Carter called as Chris was found out as he tightened his hand remembering Nicola Strato's faithful day and this monster. "You better come on out, otherwise all these people will feel my wrath, much like the way your girlfriend did nearly two decades ago." Carter called as his cat like claws extended from his knuckles. People began to scatter from what he just said, as dust from the ground picked up making it like a smoke screen. Meanwhile, Tom kept an eye on Invictus who was now thirty meters infront of the building he stood infront of.
"I know you are there, show yourself!" Invictus called up as Rachel and Tom nodded in agreement, as Rachel jumped from the rooftop. Invictus looked up and saw a descending woman coming down from the rooftop of the building. When she landed no bones were shattered as she stood up normaly. "So tell me who might you be, you seem familiar to me." Invictus told her as she smiled.
"Well I will just say this, my DNA was a part of prototype cloning process years back. And I would say it was of the clone Racola, allow me to introduce myself to you John Tyler. I am Rachel Carver, Third in command of the Destroyers 2.0, I am also the teams Heavy Arms specialist." She said bowing to him. "And my mind is more than what you can handle." She said as the windows of the building behind her shattered to small pieces.
"What the!" Invictus called as the glass shards were all floating in the air as Rachel just stood there looking at him.
Then all of a sudden another one landed beside her as he had a katana drawn from its sheath. "You are the swordmaster John Tyler correct?" Tom said as he positioned his feet for a sword fight. Invictus slowly drew his weapon as Rachel kept her eyes on him and him alone.
"As you wish." Invictus said as he then saw it in Rachel's eyes. He looked up and every one of the glass shards were going right at him. They didn't come close however, instead Tom walked out and the shards were going around and around both Tom and Invictus. "What is this?" Invictus asked as Tom smiled.
"Easy, our battle arena." Tom said as he rushed towards John with uncanny speed. John however blocked the sword strike.
Meanwhile, Kevin and Aelan had both left the base Headquarters do to the call from Kira. They knew each of Destroyers were in the city as Aelan is able to sense them now, but they are to spread out, she can't tell where they are located. "We got to get to Kira and the others." Kevin said as he and Aelan both made a leap from the ground to the roof of the building. The two rushed towards the area Kira and Chris were at, but Kevin stopped suddenly.
"Kevin, why you stop, Meer and the others are in danger!" Aelan told him as he then rushed towards his wife as a shadow came towards her. Aelan didn't expect such a thing from Kevin as she felt his agumented body ram in to hers. Aelan's body skidded across the rough gravel of the roof as she felt the ground beneath her begin to give way. Within seconds both her body and Kevin's fell through the roof landing on some ground beneath them. Kevin turned to see the assailant that came after them. The one who came wore a black muscle shirt, his sandy blonde hair waved in the small breeze that blew into the building they were now in. When the man raised his eyes towards them they looked to be of frozen Jade.
"So you decided to show your face Michael?" Kevin asked as he let his wife get to her feet while Michael had two mechanical arms coming out of his back, while two from his ribs.
"Care for round three commander?" Michael asked as he flexed his two human arms, while the other four moved in various motions.
"Aelan, go help the others, This guy is mine." Kevin told her as she nodded and left in a matter of seconds.
"Hehe, no matter how fast she moves, she wont get to any of them in time, many of the others are targeting your friends. And. . . Your family." Michael said as Kevin had the look of shock in his eyes, the Destroyers were targeting his friends and families. "And there is nothing you can do about it." Michael said as he sent all four of his mechanical arms towards Kevin and his own body towards his once known brother.
Chris was in between Flay, Carter and the others, he kept his body between the ones he loved and the others. Carter turned to the red headed phoenix and nodded. "You know what to do." He told her as Flay nodded and jumped to a near by rooftop and began to pursue what someone would call the hunt.
Chris turned to see that Flay was running towards his friends. He began to run but was stopped when a hand grabbed his shoulder and whirled him around. The next thing Chris Knew he was hit in the face and his body was hurled into an outdoor fruit shelf. Splinters of wood flew out as the body made impact with the rest of the place. "You can't help them Nexus, this is the end of you just like that girl a few years back." Carter said with nearly a laugh escaping his ranting. Do to the statement, Chris' hands were clenched so tight, that it drew blood. "hehehe, I see that I made the wolf angry." Carter mocked.
"If any of you destroyers lay a hand on my friends." Chris said as his eyes were closed and when they opened they have already changed. "You will have to meet with the beast!" Chris yelled as he stood up and placed his hands on the wall behind him. He then moved his legs to somewhat behind him. With that he used his legs to catapult himself towards Carter.
Meanwhile Kira was getting the girls away from the conflict, but Flay was not far behind him, as her speed was much more than he remembered. Just when Kira got the girls around a corner, Flay tackled Kira. She looked with somewhat hate in her eyes, as she looked down upon the man she had a relationship, mere months before her death. "F. . .Flay?" Kira asked as this was their first time in this position since before she thought Kira had died.
"Kira!" Lacus called coming towards them.
"No Lacus, Run!" Kira called as Flay looked at Lacus with Meer right behind her.
"You took my Kira away from me Bitch!" Flay called as she lunged at Lacus. Meer forgot about herself as she pushed Lacus out of the way of the oncoming flame haired woman. As a result of this, Flay's extended Claws, slashed a deep gash in Meers shoulder.
"AHH!" Meer yelled upon contact.
"No Meer!" Lacus called as Kira ran over to them. Nicola was already by her mothers side, along side her sister Erika.
"Mom" Nicola called as she rushed to her mother who was holding a bleeding arm. Flay just looked at them with her claws still dripping of some of Meers blood.
"I'm alright dear, just get out of here." Meer told her as Nicola shook her head no.
"How nice, mother and daughter, and the bitch that stole Kira from me," Flay snapped just as a younger looking Kira got infront of Lacus. Raymond stood infront of his mother as Kira got infront of him.
"Flay stop it, you know doing this will add you to Kevin's hitlist, heck, I think you just went on Chris' for doing that to Meer." Kira told her, as Flay began to walk towards them.
Meanwhile, Invictus parried a sword strike from Tom, while the both of them twisted in the air with a tornado of sparks from the clashing swords. Each of them moved throughout the wall of glass shards that swirled around them by Rachel. After the last bash of the blades the two landed about twenty feet from each other. "Hmm better then I thought, guess I shouldn't underestimate the Fencing Prince's clone." He said as he backed off then did another bash of the Katanas. "Oh an you can tell Hydra, if he hasn't figured it out, that Manticore, and Medusa are back." Tom said as his free hand went as though he was holding a ball.
"What are you doing?" Invictus asked as he saw some energy build up in the palm.
"Easy, showing you some tech, that your brother does not have!" Tom called.
"No Tom, that weakens the user heavily, if you Miss you'll be defenceless!" Rachel called.
"True, that is why, once its fired, we get out of here." He said looking at her as the glass began to descend while Tom moved so that what ever he did, would go to the ocean.
"What are you up to?" Invictus asked as he readied himself. Then a white ball of a mix of red formed in his hand. "Oh shit, thats Plasma!" Invictus called as he moved away, while Tom raised his hand and opened it blasting whatever was infront of him. The red and white beam blasted on by, which resembled the Stormhawks Balaena plasma Cannons. Invictus dodged it in time, but whatever got in the path of the beam of hot Plasma, was instantly Incinerated, just until it hit the water. In the midst of the blast, Rachel grabbed Tom in time, and jumped off towards the Sea, ready to leave do to Toms weakened State.
Meanwhile, Kevin was flying through the air with four mechanical tentacles swinging him around in the air. Just as they let go, Kevin slammed through the wall into the street. "Shit, he's even better than back at the mansion." Kevin said getting up, but then he was hit by a large piece of the wall from the building he came out of. With that he extended his claws and went after his once thought to be brother.
"Not this time!" Michael called as two of his arms grabbed the arms of Kevin's. Kevin was suspened in air as the two tentacle arms brought him closer just as krakens fist smashed Kevin straight in the face once again. When the punch connected Kevin went sliding through the pavement from the force of the punch.
"Ouch, guess this 2.0 program has really upgraded all of you huh?" Kevin asked as Michael nodded flexing his arms. Kevin wiped the blood off of his lips and drew his colt and aimed it at Michael.
"Not this time buddy." Michael said as he jumped into the air, 'NOW!' Michael called in his radio, which meant, Tessa on a near by building fired. The bullet flew through the air and hit Kevin's prosthetic arm dead on. Even though it was his fake arm, Kevin felt terrible pain when the bullet hit.
"Argh!" Kevin called as he dropped his gun do to the arm was now to him useless. "What the. . .?" Kevin began then he knew who possibly could of fired that shot. "No, it can't be her?" Kevin told himself. 'Of course its her, everyone else is here, but where is she?' Kevin wondered as at that very moment Tessa was changeing positions.
"Tessa, has a bit of vendetta with you as well, because unlike most people, we know that you are the one that killed her cousin." Michael said as he came up fast and smashed Kevin in the ribs with his leg. When Kevin began to go up in the air, Kraken's tentacle arms formed and axe handle, and smashed Kevin in the back knocking him hard into the ground.
"Argh!" Kevin muffled as he began to get himself up. Just then Michael kicked his clone in the ribs knocking him towards another building.
"Now, is the time for you to die." Michael lifted his mechanical arms in the air as the four aimed down at him. "Goodbye broth. . .ah. . .ah. . ." Michael began as he stumbled back clenching his heart. "Shit, not now" Michael said as Kevin looked up to him.
"Whats wrong?" Kevin wondered as Michael looked at him in anger.
"None of your buisness." Michael barked at him as he left Kevin where he was.
'I wonder what that was all about?' Kevin wondered as then what he originally came to do was still an objective. "KIRA!" Kevin said as he made a beline where Chris was, and where Flay is.
Meanwhile, Ken, Garret, and Athrun were looking around town. They were on alert do to the alarm that has currently been activated. Garret and Ken both have took up positions as body guards for Athrun. Mainly because Garret has been now known as part of the Nexus program. While Ken is the son of two destroyers, project Guardian, and project Nexus. Even though he doesn't have the agumentations of his parents, but he did have some abilities from their genetic experiments. "I wish I knew who has invaded here, guards are going all around." Athrun said as he held a pistol along with the others holding their own firearms.
"I do not know for sure, but I have this feeling, its a feeling I have had every time we fought those unknown machines." Ken told them. (Aka - his mothers power to sense the Destroyers.)
"Are you sure?" Garret asked as Ken nodded. "This is not good then." Garret said as he then heard something in the street to their right. "Everyone Get Down!" Just as they ducked a tossed military issue jeep flew just centimeters over their heads.
"What the hell?" Ken asked as he looked in the direction where it came from. Standing their however was a nearly at a colossal hight of 7'4 and looked to be on steroids. His dark brown hair waved in the slight breeze as he looked to his right to see a zaft military tank heading his way. To the mans eyes, a crosshair targeted the Tank as he went right for it. Ken looked to see the man grab the barrel of the Tanks main gun and began to lift it. (Imagine what the Incredible Hulk does to a tank) He lifted the tank off of it treads, which caused its occupants to flee immediatly. "No way!" Ken called as he looked at such a thing.
"Ragh, The offspring of the commander shall die!" Charlie called as he hurled the Tank into a building not far from Ken and the others. Charlie then raised his right arm towards them, palm flat out.
Ken instantly remembered what his mother told him of the Destroyers years ago. 'Charlie had a special type of weapon located in his arm, no Idea what it could shoot, because I was never around to see him test the weapon' Aelan always told him as he looked at him.
"DIE!" Charlie roared as a small hole opened up in the palm of his hand. Then an anti tank mirco missile was loaded and then fired. Ken and the others dodged just in time as the missile entered the building behind them and then across the street blowing up in that next building.
"Shit!" Ken called as he turned and opened fire on the man, but no bullet hit the man, do to an electromagnetic shield. "Shit, forgot about that." Ken said as Garret was getting Athrun out of there. Ken on the otherhand stayed as he and Charlie stared down each other. "Ok Charile, show me what you got." Ken told him.
Charlie raised an eyebrow at the child of the Destroyers Nemesis. "You look just like your father but yet the spirit of your mother young Walker." Charlie mocked as he walked cockly up towards his small opponent. Well Ken is small to him as he cracks his neck and knuckles.
Meanwhile, Carter was thrown through a wall of a near by building and from the origin he came from, Chris Nexus stood a full foot taller than he once was, and his body was covered in a grey fur. He was in his full blown Zoanthrope form. He changed do to the ranting of Carters about Nicola's death so many years ago. Carter came flying out of the rubble like a bat out of hell with his claws fully extended. His teeth however were more pointed like a cats, and his strength is way more than before. The two Zoanthrope battle is chaotic. Aelan had seen the battle, and changed her mind to try to hunt down any other Destroyer she could find. However there was much roaring and biting of the two Zoanthropes that were dukeing it out in the streets, with much ruined Landscape.
In Carter's mind all he could think was to mock Chris before this battle, so he could face off against the leader of Nexus at his full strength. Which he is now getting as the Wolf form of Chris slammed a backhand sending Carter back a few feet but he flexed his body much like a house cat. Do to this flexibility, he landed withhis hands and legs. Chris with his acute wolf hearing, he could hear a voice. "Nicola No!" and Chris could tell it was Meer's voice, with a bit of pain in her voice.
"No Nicola, Meer, Erika." Chris said to himself as he looked at Carter who came rushing at him and shoulder tackling the wolf hybrid. As the feet of the hybrids dragged through the ground Chris stood his ground and lifted Carter off of the ground and through him over his head. Carter twisted in the air again and landed on his feet. However Chris did not wait for his opponent to rise, as he used his hybrid body to move fast towards where Kira and the others went to. Speaking of which, Flay walked slowly towards Kira and his family with her claws extended.
"Kira!" She called to him as she walked ever closer as though she wanted him to run to her. Nicola however was laying on the ground not far from Flay with her back bleeding pretty badly, where Meer and Erika were helping Nicola away. As she tried to fight Flay herself.
Flashback
Nicola had enough of what Flay has begun to do with Kira, as she pushed him around as Kira would not let Flay get close to Lacus. Flay was about to leap to her when Nicola tackled her from behind. Flay slid across the ground and then got up with a very angry face looking at Nicola. "You bitch!" Flay called as she came on Nicola. With the first vertical slash from Flays claws, Nicola blocked them with her arms. Flay was amazed in the strength of Nicola. 'No doubt this is from Chris' Genes. She is far stronger than normal.' Flay said as she kicked Nicola in the ribs, which then she jumped up and did a three sixty spin kicking Nicola in the face, inevitably turning her around. "Nicola No!" Meer called as Flays claws slashed through the flesh of Nicola's back.
End Flashback
Flay has now knocked Kira and Raymond away from Lacus as she semi cowered from the approaching person. "Flay NO!" Kira called as Flay looked at him.
"Kira, shut up, I'm going to kill the woman that ruined my life, she ruined it once you found her in that pod with that body guard of hers." Flay said as she looked at Lacus once again. "I've always hated her for that, I threatened her life to stop them from firing on my fathers ship. I lost someone special to me that day. And I hated everyone for it, especially her!" Flay said as she raised her hand to take Lacus' life away from her.
Just then blurr was seen as it slammed right into Flay knocking her back a few meters. "Flay, you may of been a friend of mine somewhat, but I will not let you lay a hand on my sister!" Kevin Walker said as he held his disabled arm.
Flay looked in fear as she saw a man that has threatened her life more than once. "You, the one we were assigned to Kill." Flay said as she stood up once again. "Do you expect me to lose to you." She said with a giggle. "I kicked both yours and you wifes asses back at ORB, and you expect to beat me with a injured arm like that!" She said pointing and laughing at the disabled prosthetic arm.
"Flay I underestimated you last time, this time, I wont." Kevin said as he extended his good arm and told her with a hand symbol to just bring it.
"Hmm, I'll tear you apart, right from where Kraken failed to do." Flay said getting in a crouching tiger karate stance. But then the sound of bodies crashing through something drew their attention, everyones even the injured women. They saw the gray wolf form of Chris being on the ground with a black like cat creature on top. It was Carter, do to genetic malfunctions from being cloned of a clone, his Zonethrope form has been warped from what the originals was. As this one had two fangs that looked much like the two fangs from a sabre tooth tiger. And black fur all over the body, much like a black panther. Meer looked as she instantly recognized Chris fighting the black creature. Raymond, Erika, and Nicola looked on in utter amazement and some something of a bit scared as they have never seen this before. They were told of what Chris and Kevin could do, but have never seen either of them like this. Meer's last time seeing this form of Chris was back during the death of Racola years ago. They all could see that the Sabre toothed panther had bit the wolf in a shoulder having its jaw locked with its two large teeth still in Chris. Chris was roaring in pain from what had just happened to him. Flay also looked on in horror as Chris' own Maw latched onto the shoulder of Carters both beast drawing blood from the other.
Kevin also look on in aw, seeing the Zoanthrope battle, as he has never seen one for himself. Infact this is the first for all, as they have never truly seen any of the Zoanthrope friends they have fight it out in beast form. Chris and Carter both slowly stood up still latched on with their maws now both standing with their arms interlocked as well. The two beasts duked it out as they both let go and Carter slammed Chris knocking him back towards Kevin.
(Impressive isnt it Walker?) Carter said walking towards the fallen wolf and a destroyer original.
Kevin just smirked as he looked at the tall cat like hybrid. "Whats so impressive, besides the bigger teeth, We are the same way." Kevin told him as Chris and Carter continued to bleed heavily from their wounds which was now staining the fur of the two creatures.
First he sent a transmission to Flay. (Darling be ready, I can't last much longer in this form, blasted being clone from a clone.) He told her as she nodded, but before Kevin could think of why, Carter turned to the Nexus family minus Chris and his other part of the family. (But now first, I'll kill one of Chris' loved ones, how about Nicola again) He called walking towards the three girls.
"BANG!" the sound came as Kevin's Colt was now smoking, as the bullet hist right inside of Carters already wounded shoulder and exploded.
"ROAR!" Carter yelled as he clenched his shoulder, his EM shield ceased functioning. (Damn, All Destroyers!) Carter called as meanwhile.
Charlie just through Ken through a building with ease, then he got the message from Carter. (I am ordering a retreat, we have wounded many of them, so return to the base now!) Carter roared to them as Charlie looked at the battered Ken.
"Looks like your getting off easy this time boy, next time it wont be the same." Charlie said as he turned to leave.
"Not if I say anything about it!" Came a females voice as soon as Charlie turned his head, he was kicked in the side fo the face, sending him down the road. He looked at the assailant, to see his old friend Aelan with her right leg stretched out and her other leg bent up to her chest as her upperbody was pointing towards Charlie.
"Ahh Aelan, its been a while." Charlie said rubbing his arm.
"Never, threaten my son ever Charlie, otherwise, you will feel the part of the Omega project that Nexus and Abaddon did together." She said as Charlie just smiled at her.
"Your not the only one of that calibur anymore." He said as Aelan looked at him weird. "Well I'll be going now, and listen Aelan, we are all of that project you spoke of." Charlie told her as he ran off.
"Mom, what did he mean by that?" Ken asked holding his shoulder from the pain of going through the wall. He still had the ability to feal pain, unlike his mother and father and their project days, he just got the tail end of the genetic part.
"Its exactly what he said, and I just got one way to sum it up, I am the prototype of our new enemy." She told him as Ken looked shock at her.
And now back to Kevin, Chris and the others. Chris looked on to see Flay helping Carter and getting him away from the combat. Chris just kept on looking at the now transforming back Carter as he felt unbearable pain in his shoulder. "RAGHHHH!" He yelled in pain where Meer kept on Nicola, more worried of her daughter rather than husband, much like what a mother should do. Lacus and Kira on the other hand went to Chris. Chris began to change back, and the wound from Carter mostly remained.
"Kira, Lacus." Kevin came looking at each respectivly. "Go help Nicola, I'll take Chris, Raymond." He said turning to his nephew. "Go and help Meer, we got to return to the ship, and tell Andy what has transpired here today." Kevin told him as Raymond held no objections, as each of the fighters here today, began to help the wounded back to their bases.
"Kevin." Chris said weekly not fully passing out from his transformation yet.
"What is it tovarisch?" Kevin asked as he and the others began to take their friends back to the base.
"Is my family ok?" Chris asked as Kevin nodded.
"They are a bit wounded, but they'll live, don't worry." Kevin told him as Chris nodded walking a bit but more being dragged.
"Good, and thank you, I owe you one." Chris said as he passed out.
"He, you owe me more but who is counting?" Kevin asked himself as they walked onward.
Seven hours later, Leviathan, flying over the Indian ocean and coming up on India to rondevou with their away team, Simon and Erica.
