IF2 Chapter Extra #1
"I swear to God, Nix. Cole went up at least 3 stories into the air!"
"Ahahahahaha! And then you took the shot! Right Zeke, tell me you took it out then?" Nix asked, about only half her beer flying into the air as she flailed around., Nix didn't worry as she teleported right under the would-be tragedy with an open mouth.
"Now, for the first time ever, I think Bertrand's plan of giving normal humans powers could really be a beautiful thing." Zeke said with awe in his eyes.
"Get on with story, Z-man!" Nix said, teleporting back to her chair, only upside down this time.
"Well, there ain't too much more to tell. The second Cole touched the ground, those Swamp buggers swarmed him, and sent him flying. I swear, for a second I thought those things could think. Sure as hell looked like their plan was to bounce him back and forth between their claw-thingys."
"And Cole didn't fry you dead on the spot once you helped him out?"
"Well, he probably would've, but I think that one of those things might've knocked him in the head a bit too hard. He seemed surprised when I finally helped him out. A half an hour later." Zeke said with the small smile on his face turning into a shit-eating grin by the end of the sentence.
" So wait, hehehe, I get how he didn't zap him because he was in the middle of the swamp without anything to recharge with, but why didn't he just hit them with the amp?"
"He had dropped it into a deep puddle the 2nd time he was flung into the air."
"Oh my God, Zeke. If he ever learns this, he will kill you. You realize that, don't you?" Nix said with about as much seriousness as a kitten.
"Yeah, well, he's real thankful I rescued him once they started getting near a river."
"OH MY GOD ZEKE RUN!" Nix screamed as she momentarily forgot she could teleport and scramble behind the couch next to Zeke.
"ZZZEKE!" Cole said as he shot a magnum bolt at his favorite chair, while Kuo was lying on the floor of the building Cole had taken off from.
" Gotta run Nix!" Zeke shouted as he ran off the edge of the building.
"Idiot," Nix said as she teleported next to him midair, only to grab his hand and teleport to the next block in what Zeke shortly deduced was a broom closet, considering Nix was sitting on his lap with no room to move.
"What the hell were you thinking Z? Nix said trying to act mad.
" What? It was only two stories… And don't even try to act mad Nix, I know you too well."
"Yeah, well, agghh whatever. I should've left you to break your legs."
"If you did though, we wouldn't be here right now, would we Nix?" He's not wrong, thought Nix.
"Scooch over a bit, lemme' get comfy. We're going to be here for a while. If I teleport now, Kuo and Cole would notice it."
I don't know how they'd be able to do that, but I'm not about to complain.
"Sure thing, Nix."
