Retaking Paragon:

Chapter-002

A/N: This chapter will wrap up Scar's mission and I'll let the next wrap up Voltage. PS: If you don't know what Scar's weapons are look them up in Google. I'll spell them out for you.

PS: This story chapter can get a little gory so if you have a easily turned stomach then this is a good time to leave.

Disclaimer: I do not own any part of City of Heroes or City of Villains. The most I have is an account on the game… it pretty fun. Anyway the rights of this game go to its respected owners like Cryptic Studios and other people… yeah… that's it!

Oh and another Disc: The hero that is going to show up is a hero from the great author Rane Metal. Read his stories there are REALLY good.

------------------------------------------

Scar dived behind the nearest cover which was a concrete support beam and tossed away his Uzi as it once again disappeared in a flash of green light and was replaced by a M16 assault rifle. He summoned a clip of ammo and slammed it into his gun when suddenly the support beam was rained on by the bullets from the pistols of the various Skull members. Small bits and peaces where torn off by the bullets with a deafening sound. Scar ignored the noise and crouched on his knee and leaned around the left side as he returned fire at three Skulls who overturned a metal table and was using it as a bunker.

Scar growled to himself as his bullets ricocheted off the metal surface he pulled back and tried to pick off other members. One Skull was running out in the open trying to reach a door thinking that the hail of bullets was all the cover he needed… he was wrong. Scar fired a few rounds at him and watched his body jerk rapidly as six bullets flew threw his side.

Scar ducked back behind the pillar and ejected the clip and summoned another but before he could insert it into the gun there was a loud WHOOSH sound headed straight for him.

'Damn it they have a RPG…' He thought as the pillar was hit by the missile and shattered like glass. Scar was thrown forward and slammed into a wall by the explosion, as the smoke and dust gathered making him a mini smoke screen Scar quickly stood back on his feet barely even fazed by the rocket. He was a lot more pissed then injured.

Deciding he had enough he quickly summoned another weapon, a M60 with armor piercing rounds. Scar doesn't like to use his big guns because it is really pricy to replace the ammo he uses but when the going gets tough the tough gets a bigger gun I guess…

The never ending flood of bullets from the Skulls stopped as they all stared into the smoke waiting for it to clear up and see if they killed the legendary Red Scar. While Scar hung back looking for his next large sturdy object to use as cover. An old couch, a big screen TV, or a large conveyor belt and drug machine which was filled with ecstasy pills.

'The conveyor belt it is.' He though once again and made a dash out of the smoke. As he made his dash he looked up at Rib Cage who was the one with the RPG like he thought. Scar pointed his gun at him and fired, the force of the M60 was so great that it made Scar staggers as he ran and nearly pushed him over. The ammo belt was pulled into the gun and flew at Rib Cage with the force of a runaway train. Five shots hit the drug lord resulting in the muscle bound Bone Daddy exploding into blood soaked confetti. The other Skull's where shocked at the death of there leader that they didn't react in time to see Scar turning the gun back on the three hiding behind the table. A quick jerk of his trigger finger resulted in the table being torn apart like a piece of paper in a meat grinder.

The three Skull's literally exploded when the bullets hit there upper body coating the walls a very disturbing color. Scar dived behind the ecstasy machine and checked his ammo box hanging on the side. He had more then 85 bullets left.

'Let's see, there are 32 Skulls in the room and I just killed 5. So 27 Skulls… I have plenty of ammo.'

Jumping back in the open from his cover Scar once again pulled back the trigger to his gun and pointed it at a balcony with six Skulls with Uzi's fired at him over the rail's but it just bounced off the armored material that Scar wore. Scar's gun did a lot more damage, two Skull's where hit and flew back threw the air and back into the walls as Scar's brought his gun from one side to the other. The six Skulls where dead leaving him with 21 others who where now on the verge of wetting themselves.

One man let out a scream of both panic and madness and threw his gun to the ground making a break for the nearest exist ignoring the cry's from the others telling him to stop. Scar chose him as his next target and fired a single bullet that flew low and blew off his left leg at the knee. The man fell to the ground with another scream before taking out a hand gun from his belt and pointing it at his own head.

'20 left…'

With one less Skull to worry about Scar disbursed his M60 deciding it was no longer necessary to waist its pricy ammo. He summoned a Desert Eagle magnum; he gazed across the room and saw three other Skull's who where hardly protected by the destroyed remands of what was once a car. He raised his magnum and closed his left eye as his right eye started to zoom in like a sniper rifle scope. He pulled his trigger finger back and fired the magnum the recoil jerked forced his wrist to snap back in point the gun in the air but his aim was true.

The bullet flew straight threw the passenger and drivers window slamming into the head of a Skull.

'19…'

The other two Skull's screamed and made a break for better cover but Scar anticipated this and fired another two bullets as the jumped from the car.

'17…'

He turned to see four Skull's run in the elevator he came out of and close the doors before he could fire. Scar smiled an took out a detonator from a hidden compartment and pressed the button. Above the Skull's heads an explosion went off, when Scar jumped threw the elevator hatch he planted a small but powerful bomb. The doors to the elevator shaft where thrown off with a rush of fire that set off the fire sprinklers.

'13…'

Scar started to look around the room and saw another 5 Skull's hiding behind a drug belt much like his. Calling forth a grenade he pulled the pin and counted a few seconds before pitching it. The cooked grenade flew over the Skulls head and exploded before even touching the ground.

'8…'

Scar stood on his feet and stepped out from his cover walking. His Desert Eagle held only 7 bullets a clip and he fired 3 so he had 4 shots left. Scar summoned another clip and placed it in his ammo belt and with his gun pointed forward he started to walk threw the large open room. He knew there are 8 Skull's left but they seemed to of disappeared in thin air. After 3 minutes of waling in circles he noticed a sewer lid that was recently moved. He kicked the lid over an looked down, it did indeed lead into the darkest parts of the sewers which means he doesn't have to worry about them.

"By now the Vahzilok cut them up. No need to bother myself with them."

Scar looked around the now destroyed room the saw that the fire sprinklers melted all of the ecstasy pills away.

"No need to worry about that either…"

Scar made his way to Rib Cage and started to search threw his pants pockets. After a while he pulled out a soggy wallet he opened it and pulled out a good 800 dollars in fifties and twenties.

'Need's to dry off but should still be good.'

He thought then started to rummage threw his jacket pockets and found a key. Looking around the room he saw a small safe pushed under a workshop table. Scar walked over and tried the key; it opened the safe door showing two shelves. The top shelf was just some drugs, X, Coke, and Pot. But on the bottom shelf was a very large stack of money wrapped in plastic labeled by bill size and each one is 1K each. Scar grabbed the stacks of money with chuckle. He looked around the room and saw an duffle bag on a nearby table, he grabbed it and started to fill it full of money. After zipping the bag close he held out both hands and watched as the orbs on his gauntlets glow and the bag with all of the money disappeared in a flash of green light.

------------------------------------------

The Red Scar made his way to the top of the building and looked around, with a sigh he looked down at the gathering of police who have just broke down the door and where stormed the building. Scar just shrugged and was about to make his escape when a voice rung out from the sky.

"Well, well, what do we have here?"

Scar looked into the sky to see a man in a purple bodysuit with a large T on his chest and various silver outlines including a silver two large metal wings and a mirror like helmet. Scar raised an eyebrow at the man before him, a hero known as Tempest, a do-gooder who will probably try to do the right thing and arrest Scar before throwing him in the Zig.

Tempest glided closer to the roof with caution as he looked Scar over.

"Wait a second… I know who you are. Holly Hell you are the Red Scar aren't you!"

Scar didn't answer but Tempest didn't really care, he just muttered to himself on how he should start carrying his camera more often.

Scar slowly inched his hand behind his back and flexed his fingers ready to summon any weapon that he would need. But from what he could tell so far is that Tempest was young and he also didn't kill anyone. He is quite well known for stopping some sort of mutant from rampaging across Paragon or something like that, so lethal force was definitely out.

But Tempest was a lot more intelligent then Scar gave him credit for. As quick as the eye could see Tempest summoned a ball of lightning and held it out at Scar.

"Ok buddy hands where I can see them."

Scar narrowed his eyes, his suit was made to be able to stand up to every attack there could possibly be including lightning but it still hurt like hell and left his arms and legs feeling numb. Scar nodded and quickly whipped his arm around with a large shotgun in hand.

Tempest gave a gasp as the gun fired straight at him in point blank range. Tempest felt the impact slam into his chest giving him such a shock that he released the ball of lightning letting it fly way off target and into the night's sky. This is usually the spot where Tempest goes into shock giving a gasp of surprise as his body goes cold, but that didn't happen. Tempest didn't go into shock and his body didn't go cold, but it did HURT!

The shotgun wasn't loaded with a lethal shotgun shell, but it was loaded with a heavy beanbag that would surly leave a purple welt in Tempests chest the size of his fist. Tempest gave a short cry of pain as he flew off from the roof and into the sky. Scar cocked his weapon and got ready for Tempest retaliation. When Tempest reached a good height he conjured another ball of lightning and threw it full force at Scar. Scar jumped back as the lightning hit the ground where he once stood and fired his beanbag gun again but Tempest dashed to the side. Then Tempest retaliated with three small but very fast bolts of lightning, each one striking Scar dead on in his chest.

Scar stumbled back with a growl of pain as Tempest held both of his hands in the air and summoned a large orb of lightning. Not wanting to see what came next Scar fired his gun three times two of the bags flew into the orb canceling it out and the third strikes his chest. Tempest gave out another cry and while he was disorientated Scar activated his jump boots and leapt up to Tempest. Tempest made a face of shock as Scar took his Katana from his belt and swung it full force. The sword swung true and sliced Tempest's left wing clear off forcing the hero out of the sky and landing rather painfully on his back on the roof.

Scar landed behind him and crossed his arms waiting for Tempest to make his next move. Tempest laid there for a few seconds then slowly picked himself off the ground.

"I think I landed on my keys…" He said as he stood up and dusted himself off. He looked at his left gauntlet where his wing as been severed then back at Scar.

"Ok now it's on." With that he quickly conjured another orb and threw it but Scar flipped over it and landed in front of Tempest delivering three quick jabs to his chest followed by a powerful haymaker. Tempest stumbled back but recovered; surrounding his fist in lightning he jumped forward and swung it straight at Scar. Unfortunately hand to hand combat is Scar's specialty so he ducked under the swing and followed it with a uppercut that sent Tempest flying into the air.

Before the battle could continue the door to the buildings stairs busted open and six police officers stormed out. Tempest jumped up and looked at the officers then looked back at Scar, only problem was that Scar wasn't there.

"What the hell!" He yelled and ran over to the edge of the building, Scar was gone.
