John growled furiously as he tried to break free from his limitations.

Casy was lying a few meters away, holding her belly, which was full of holes from the shot. Humndinger stood over her.

- And who is the strongest now? He asked, picking up the gun.

John did what he never thought he would do, he pleaded.

- Please ... No.

A shot rang out. His blood cooled. He saw a red hole form in Casy's head.

The beast that lurked at the edge of his consciousness was voluntarily let in today.

For the first time, both sides had a common goal.

Kill.

His eyes turned blood red, and it was here that John let out a deafening, ear-piercing, banshee-like scream that actually made Humndinger momentarily plug his ears with his hands, and several windows cracked in the background.

- Oh my god. was all that Humndinger could bring himself to say.

The steel restraints squeaked as John began tearing them apart

- Time to go out! he decided, moving his legs faster than ever before.

Behind him, John shifted back to her feet.

With a market that the human throat shouldn't be capable of, John go chase. Nothing can stop him from killing the man who murdered Casy.

NOTHING!

- Oh shit! Oh shit! Oh shit! Oh shit! He cursed again and again as he ran like lightning through the corridors.

Not long after he started running away, he began to hear very loud footsteps behind him. He risked a quick glance behind him and immediately regretted it.

- He is very angry! He realized when he doubled his speed.

John wasn't too far behind and he looked like he really wanted to tear him apart.

He turned the corner and noticed the elevator, he hurried to get it not long after he heard John around the corner as he did.

- Oh shit! Oh shit! Oh shit! Oh shit!

He practically jumped into the elevator and then stuck his fist on the button to make the elevator go up.

Fortunately, the elevator was not working slowly. The door began to close almost immediately, unfortunately this gave John enough time to hold on to the floor of the cage.

- Jesus Christ! he shouted.

The elevator stopped suddenly, almost throwing him off balance.

Since John was still trapped under the wire mesh, she decided to just let him stay there and get out of the building before he somehow managed to get through.

Even now he could hear the sound of the steel mesh flexing with his strength. He just had to hope she could keep him long enough for him to reach the exit.

These thoughts, however, were completely crushed when he heard the groan of the bent metal. He turned to see that the human killing machine was indeed motivated to kill him.

He had already worked his way through much of the elevator's wire mesh.

It seemed the universe just wouldn't let him alone.

Before he was halfway to salvation, John managed to jump up and through the elevator floor and resumed his pursuit.

He heard its roar echoing through the corridors, and knew John would tear it to pieces if it didn't get out quickly.

He passed another corner and noticed the exit. Unfortunately, at the same moment John ran behind him through the corridor

- Seriously?! How the hell did he get here so fast ?! he exclaimed as he returned to sprinting to save his life.

He wasn't so sure that reaching the exit would save him.

RRRRAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

John's scream was absolutely deafening, especially at this distance. He had to resist the temptation to just get down on his knees and plug his ears to drown out the sound. But he struggled with the pain and redoubled his efforts to escape.

Just a few more meters and he be outside.

But the sound of footsteps was getting closer. If he glanced back, he would see that he is barely out of reach.

John even made a small blow to the man, barely missing his neck by a few centimeters, making a hole in the wall.

Summoning all the speed he could for the last meter he slipped through the crack of the opening door.

John, bigger than him, banged his head against the still not fully open door and was forced to wait for it to be over.

On the other hand, Humndinger covered another ten feet before accidentally hitting something else.

He muttered, rubbing his aching head. From the sound, whatever it hit was made of metal. Then a familiar voice spoke

- You better run.

He opened his eyes to find he was looking at Ryder operating the death war machine. It was like an exoskeleton

At this point, John decided to announce himself to the world with another piercing scream.

John paused in chase, looking at the obstacle between him and the man who had caused him so much grief.

Humndinger could practically feel the gaze resting on him. But then the loud mechanical footsteps of the vehicle picked him up.

Ryder was running AKOK and she placed him exactly between him and Humndinger.

RRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

John attacked with the utmost intent to smash the obstacle aside and destroy the object of his hatred.

He opened his main weapon on the charging John and unleashed a stream of massive fire.

But the stream of bullets might as well be paper balls, for little more than bouncing off the tense muscles.

John plunged into AKOK at full speed, Ryder dug his mech's heels into the ground and pushed back. Eventually, they both stopped.

He activated his exoskeleton's maneuvering system, this time giving the mech a frontal boost. John was unable to hold back the metal suit and was forced to break the lock and the pedal.

But he quickly recovered and tried to attack again. But this time Ryder was ready, he twisted his left arm and deflected it as he charged.

He screamed in pain as he was knocked to the ground.

The two rectangular tubes on the spine moved to the firing position. He pressed the trigger twice, firing one syringe from each launcher.

But John recovered faster than expected and managed to sneak out with a hypnotic syringe, allowing them to hit the building behind him.

John bounced off the ground and struck a mechanical weapon. In the cockpit, Ryder sensed the impact as warnings about the damage it had caused appeared.

John came out seemingly out of nowhere and struck again, this time crashing into the polycrystalline canopy. Strangely, he saw it crack, and more warnings appeared on the small screens.

DURABILITY 87.52%

This time, the left hand got up and grabbed him before it could do any damage. John cried out in surprise.

He tugged and pulled him off his feet.

He blocked his syringe firing system on the overpowered John. But when it fired, John jumped at him and pushed him back, forcing him to harmlessly shoot the syringes into the air.

Then, sensing him under the canopy, he brought his face to Ryder's face and he began hitting him with his head.

DURABILITY 83.22% 78.92%

- Get off me! Ryder shouted

He clenched his left fist again and delivered a brutal top blow to the jaw, sending him back in pain.

But it proved to be tough and he quickly recovered after the bell he delivered. He attacked again, no less determined than before.

However, this time Ryder decided to try something new.

He raised his left arm and activated the mech's secondary weapon.

A barrel slipped from the box on the side of the left arm. The barrel suddenly released a stream of liquid nitrogen that completely washed the charging John.

He was screaming and desperately trying to pull back when suddenly she was covered with almost all the ice that stung and gnawed his body.

But since AKOK was still in the prototype phase, it only had enough nitrogen for one long series.

Now John could hardly move and was unable to attack when he aimed his syringes at him one last time. Ryder then pulled the trigger a total of four times, sending four syringes towards John.

The first two hit him right in the chest. The last two put him to sleep by hitting him in the neck.
