Brave and the underling go trough the lab to finally find a response to the question of who attacked the warehouse yesterday, They go toward the man who took in charge of the analysis
"So, how its advancing?" Brave says to the researcher
"Well we thing we got something but its gonna take a few more hours to confirm this."
"And can you tell us who these revolver casings belong to?"
"So we think its form that inventor that work at the leanbox defense labs but like I previously said I am not sure."
"How the fuck you can't be sure?!" Linda yells
"Calm down Linda." Brave scold her
"Shut up! Wait if you want but I am not gonna! I am gonna make that guy shove his revolver in his ass!" Linda say impatient of kicking that guy ass
"You can do it but he surely gonna kill you before you even land a hit on him so now wait"
Linda think about it for a few seconds and she angrily complies
a few hours of waiting later it have finally confirmed of who is the responsible of that act and soon enough justice will strike back
LEANBOX BASILICOM
17H30
After the presentation of the Gatling laser to the high ranking of the Leanboxian military. Bethesda return at his office and takes notes on what things he could do next with his co workers while listening to the radio to the last 5pb. Song
"what could I do next uhm..." he monologue and scratch his head and start noting random ideas
powered gauntlets, upgrading the invisibility device, mechanized suits, a small nuke launcher, plasma gun, rocket powered hammer, an invincible giant robot, some kind of VTOL"s and a deadly virus or a virus that make super-soldiers.
"i think a should remove the two last one." Bethesda thinks
His shift is nearly finished and start to clean his office and put the note in his pocket, he also while listening to the song remember the moments he had with cave and 5pb. But for this is past now,
He also randomly remember giving a taser to 5pb. In case neither cave or him would be here to defend her which is now also the case since Cave went to a mission that she never told him or 5pb. about
Around 30 min later he finished and start leaving but forget to turn of the radio so he come turning it off but then hears
"To come back about the slaughter that happened yesterday he apparently got news of who that could be, but we are not really sure yet, whatever declared that whatever did that is going to pay for what he did. The Leanboxian authorities declared that that shooter is not considered as an outlaw for the following reasons..." the journalist say
'Ha ha, I am in danger" Bethesda said trying to hide is panic
"calm down son." a ghostly voice says
Bethesda immediately turn behind him and see nothing
"boy, I am starting to get crazy I should really get some rest." Bethesda think
He proceed to turn off the radio knowing that his life is going to take a sudden turn again but well he have an OP ability so what could go wrong?
So then he leave the basilicom but start to be even more cautious at each meters he advance
He finally reach his apartment but with an impression of being observed so once entering he order RL-3 to immediately close all of the Shutters in the apartment and then do his usual business
MEANWHILE
The gray skinned underling observed the inventor entering the building and tell that to his superrior
"I think I know where he lives but not sure of which room this is precisely" the underling says
"Okay, its fine we know where he is now, you can go" A masculine voice responds
"Got it"
she then go tag something for him
LEANBOX
BETHESDA APARTMENT
FEBUARY 12
6H
Once again, Bethesda wake up with is loud alarm clock and do his morning routine before heading to the Basilicom as usual before he notice a tag on the front of the building "GET READY TO GET FUCKED BETHESDA" he also notice a janitor cleaning it, he quickly wish him luck, also does the janitor
He go at the Basilicom as usual with that same feeling of being observed but nothing happens
He go to the lab and enter his office and start to draw blueprints about a plasma gun but hardly do it has he tries to focus
"Hello B-"
Bethesda quickly draw his revolver and aim toward the man but then lower it as he notice who this is
"Sorry Obsidian, im quite on the defensive on this moment"
"But why sir?" Obsidian asks
"Its not your business man, all that I can say that's Im quite in danger."
"And why don't you call the authorities to ask them?"
"You wouldn't get it."
"Anyway someone charged me to give you this" Obsidian says as he hand over a letter to Bethesda and shortly leave after
Bethesda open the letter with gloves in case and see this "i need you to meet me at the building near of the pub at 11H00. -signed Vert"
Needless to say that he found it weird, even if they had not a lot of interactions, Bethesda knew that vert would prefer do it at the basilicom and speaks as she play games
He decide to go see Chika since she probably know Vert signature knowing her obsession with her
Bethesda knock on Chika room
"Come in" a female voice responds
"Hello Chika"
"Hello Bethesda, what is for?"
"Someone gave me a letter with vert signature, and I have some doubt about it" Bethesda says as he hand the letter to her."
"And why do you ask me that?" questions Chika
"Stop acting, you already know why." Bethesda says
Chika read the letter and quickly notice the problem
"I see, its clearly not vert signature and vert is not at Leanbox for today"
"Thanks you, but what she went to do?"
"Something at Planeptune, she didn't tell me why actually, wait hold on you are not gonna go there!"
"It will be fine don't worry I have the 2nd hobby to solo kill dragons what could stop me?" he say arrogantly as he leave the room
Chika then grab her phone
"Bungie we got a problem"
LEANBOX
AN STRANGE BUILDING (YEAH I DIDN'T HAVE IDEA FOR THE NAME)
THE SAME DAY
10H55
Bethesda arrives at the strange building with his revolver ready and break trough the building window
He look around and there is nothing interesting expect some kind of trap at the entrance as he start to leave someone speaks
"So you must be the man who caused all this mayhem a few days ago"
Bethesda quickly look where the voice come form and a door open, a man around tall has he is, with some kind of samurai armor and etc you read the previous chapter
"Who are you?"
"I am a warrior who bring justice to this world and for the world children! BRAVE!"
"Oh I remember, you are the right hand man"
"Not really, I am actually working with him only for the moment so the Syndicate will bring happiness to the world"
"You are both member of the Badd company and the ASIC?"
"Yes."
"Do you realize you are literally working for an organization who want to destroy and another one only for his own profit?!"
"I know, but for justice, sacrifices must be made!"
"Well I think we talked enough"
"So then will it be but after that Badd and another one will have "a talk" with you"
BRAVE
THE OUTLAW VIGILANTE💀
Knowing how dangerous Brave is he instantly activate the L.A.T.S to quickly disarm brave but something wrong, instead of seeing a picture of Brave dashing to him with a nodachi, he just see some kind of TV static but for some reason he could see the interface but not using it.
Having no choice left, Bethesda exit of the L.A.T.S and start shooting Brave who acrobatically dodge the two bullets than kick Bethesda who get thrown on the ground
"that's it? I hope that you can do better than that!" Brave provoke him
Bethesda quickly get up and shot him again but Brave use is nodachi to deflect the bullet which surprise Bethesda but continue to do so and Brave wall run then kick Bethesda again
But Bethesda then get up and point his gun at him, Brave get ready to deflect his bullets again but Bethesda throw his big iron at him which Brave cut it in half than almost immediately Bethesda violently uppercut him with his fist then quickly follow a flying kick which Brave don't have time to react and recoils in pain
"that's better but we are not done yet EN GARDE!"
Bethesda get his war hammer and dash at him to crush him with sheer power but Brave block the hammer with his nodachi and kick Bethesda in the knee than nudge him in the jaws and follow with an nodachi slash
"Taste my blade!" Brave yell which Bethesda barely dodge the attack
Quickly Bethesda push him with the war hammer then go for a vertical attack which brave dodge by side stepping and stab Bethesda but Bethesda get step back in time to dodge it, so Brave spin his nodachi in circle to slice Bethesda left arm injuring Bethesda but yet not amputating his arm but it sure leave a mark
Bethesda manage to escape Brave blade and counter attack with a violent War hammer strike on his torso which make Brave get thrown away but manage to land on his feet
Bethesda dash toward him with his hammer ready to crush his head so Brave roll on the side, barely dodging it and hook-foot him making him fall and Brave grab Bethesda head then slam him on his leggings knocking him out
A LONG MOMENT LATER
Bethesda start to open his eyes with a huge headache
"Hey, bitch are you awake?!" Bethesda hears, someone yelling at him
He look around him, he is tied tightly to a chair with some rope
LEANBOX
?
THE SAME DAY?
EVENING
He see the same guy who knocked him out, some random grunts, one of them got some kind of gray skin, and most importantly: the man who stolen everything for him
"Ah finally, I can beat the shit out of him" say gray skinned one while advancing toward Bethesda with an iron pipe
"Wait I want to ask him some questions" Badd says while stropping the grunt
"Can I ask only one first?" Bethesda says
"Yes?" Badd says
"How the hell you managed to prevent me to use the L.A.T.S!"
"Hehehe you should have known that ability is powered by a microchip that your own dad made, I just had to give Brave a EMP device" Badd explain then continues
"So now my questions, why the hell you killed my son!?"
"He played music a way too loud, I told him that I will turn down the music myself if he didn't to but guess what happened." Bethesda respond mockingly
The underling hit him with the pipe
"Oof! have fun till it last girl!" Bethesda say to the underling
"My son was such a good boy, I told him if he help me with my work, I will buy him his own night club!" Badd cries
"Well he's dead now." Bethesda responds
Badd slap Bethesda
"Anyway that doesn't change the fact that your story ends here and see that everything is your fault"
"No it doesn't!"
Badd Slaps Bethesda again
"Ow okay maybe it does" Bethesda says while noticing some familiars silhouettes in backgrounds
"Well you are going to have a bad time blond guy, can have fun now Linda" Badd says to the Underling
"Finally" Linda says while raising her pipe
Then she hit multiples times Bethesda with her iron pipe but making sure to not kill him or make him go unconscious, to make sure he fully feel the pain and make him learn
After a few longs minutes that seems like years, Bethesda is bleeding, probably got broken limbs and covered of bruises
"Fine I think he got enough now you can kill him" Badd says while keeping a straight yet satisfied face
Linda get quite disappointed that end now but at least she had fun, she start to raise the repaired revolver with the one Bethesda Killed her boyfriend, She aim for the head and BANG
Bethesda get an ironic ending...
Very soon after, the front door get broke down by an armored personnel carrier, killing a grunt
"Stop right there!" a man exit says accompanied with soldiers, pointing guns
One of the grunts remove her disguise revealing a red haired woman and point her guns toward Badd
"We are too late Sir! They killed him!" one of the soldiers shouts
Very soon after an inaudible gunfight start, chaos in that warehouse Badd quickly got on the ground while Brave, Linda and the others grunts Attack the Leanboxian Regal Regiment of defense troopers which themselves fight back
The red haired woman go toward the body of Bethesda, cut the rope with her scissors and drag him toward the APC
"Cave! Does he's still alive?"
"Not for long."
"Okay, bring him out of there quick!"
The APC Door quickly closes and goes away while Bungie and his troops fight the ASIC's

…
…
"You have met a terrible fate made by a terrible decision don't you?"
Bethesda hear a famliar voice yet diferent like if it was "glitched"
"Who are you?" Bethesda says confusingly
"Your dad"
"and where I am?"
"Somewhere"
"No seriously, where?"
"Where peoples goes between life and death, the last stop before gamindustri graveyard"
Bethesda look around him seeing nothing but void
"Its also a crossing between dimensions, an area where I am stuck forever and the rare times I can be in a dimension, I can never stay for long since I randomly go back there and randomly get teleported into an another one, again and again"
"I see, it must suck."
"you don't know at which point, but anyway look like you are not gonna die now"
"but how and why?"
"Plot armor and because it would suck if the fanfiction stopped here"
"oh."
"Well at least you can't die now, but I can give you directions to avoid these situations"
"Tell me more."
"First, stop being arrogant and reckless you idiot"
"ugh, that's true but its gonna be hard"
"Do its really hard or you don't want to change?"
"Its hard I swear!"
"Wrong answer, you will achieve nothing if you don't REALLY try to do something about your condition or your behavior"
"Then its me the problem..."
"Yes that's the thing, so you wondered why you couldn't use magic?"
"Yeah, I have always wondered that, I thought that I was born magic-less or something like that"
"You actually do have ability to do magic but you didn't unlocked it yet, try to go at lowee soon as possible, I am sure they can help with this"
"sure thing"
"And finally don't rely too much on your special ability's, its gonna make you depend of them and if you get countered like it happened"
"Thanks Father."
"No problem Bethesda, now your destiny lies ahead, and learn form the past to avoid your next mistakes or history will repeat itself until the irreparable, good luck"
The black void get slowly flooded with light to point to see nothing but barely see each others silhouette
…
…
…
And now like a phoenix re-birthing form his ashes, a new Bethesda rise…
