Chapter 8: Escape and rescue
Ky woke up to find himself tied up to a wall with some kind of energy devices holding his hands so he won't get away if he ever woke up, he also discovered that they took his mask and gear plus the wounds in his chest were so painful that he could pass out but there was only one thought in his mind that kept him awake: Save Maya.
Then Ky looked around and he saw a woman in the upper levels of the facility and soon he recognize who she was…it was the boss' wife the same woman she shot him, what was she doing here? But soon the woman's expression became of fear when she saw Ky who was glaring angry at her. How could she ever forget? How could he ever forget…what she did to him?
Ky used all of his strength to broke free and he knocked out the scientist who was studying him before he reached the alarm's button.
-"Okay…I need to get my mask and my arsenal if I'm going to save Maya." Ky said to himself so he went to the weapons research area to recover all of his gear.
Once inside he discovered that his combistick has been upgraded meaning that now its attacks will charge any adversary with an electric charge. Plus his smart disc has been upgraded as well now being like a giant shuriken but with the same smart tech as before. Ky grabed one of the guards and snapped his neck and used the guard's electrical stick in an attempt to knocked out the doctor who was studying Ky's weapons, unluckily Ky hit the doctor with so much strength that he decapitated him.
-"Not to self: Check your swing." Ky said to himself and he armored up and he finally retrieved all of his weapons and his mask, plus he injected himself with the medic kit to be back into full strength and his wounds were healed.
-"Now let's find Maya." Ky commented and he entered to the central computer and he located her two floors down in the prisoners cells, once Ky left the place and arrived to the prisoners cells he spotted a guard guarding the entrance where Maya was, the only way to get inside there was to distract the guard since the kairu hunter couldn't cloaked himself or use any of his projectile weapons because he had 0% of electrical energy.
-"Your mother made you a messed up face, mate! HA-HA!"
-"WHAT!?" The guard exclaimed because he heard the voice coming from where another guard was so he went to fight that other guard.
-Hmph…idiot." Ky said and then he entered Maya's cell.
-"Ky?" Maya asked.
-"We're you expecting someone else?" Ky joked and he freed her from the cell by crushing the electrical panel of the cell and taking advantage of it he recharged his energy back to 200% and then she hugged him.
-"Thank you." Maya said smiling.
-"Anytime." Ky replied but then Maya grunted for the injuries she just got on her arm and legs, so Ky grabbed his medic-kit.
-"This may hurt a bit." Ky warned and he injected Maya with the medic kit and her injuries had been healed.
-"Wow…how did you do that?" Maya said.
-"Long story, we gotta go." Ky said and the two of them reached for the exit but it was blocked by an elite guard who had a powerful blaster attached to his arm.
-"What do we do now?" Maya asked.
-"Let me handle it." Ky said and he used the voice playback.
-"Guess who's back?"
-"What the…" The guard whispered and he went to check where the noise came from, but when he turned around Maya ran towards him and punched him in the face making him fall to the lower levels.
-"Wow…I'm impressed." Ky commented.
-"Oh please, Ky. You know I'm no damsel in distress." Maya said smiling.
-"Yeah…maybe I forgot that all this time." Ky said as he and Maya ran to the exit.
Once they left exited the building, an assault ship spotted them and it was ready to open fire against them.
-"Look out!" Ky yelled as he pushed Maya and himself to take cover.
-"You know, this security is way excessive!" Maya said.
-"They're not any security; they're members of crime gangs that work for Lokar." Ky explained.
-"What!? Lokar has crime gangs working for him!?" Maya said shocked.
-"As weird as it sounds it's true, Lokar's behind all this and he has gathered all the crime gangs I've been hunting these last few days, looks like his true intention is to make them recollect shadow kairu." Ky said.
-"it doesn't make any sense, why would they be working for Lokar? Unless…" Maya said.
-"Unless that woman who shot me that night in the church is the one who's gathering them for Lokar." Ky said.
Then Ky charged his plasmacaster enough to take down the assault ship that was shooting at them.
Later Ky and Maya had located the woman in the watchtower of the facility.
-"I was hoping not to see you again, kid." The woman said.
-"It takes more than two shots to take me down, ma'am." Ky said as he was aiming at her with his plasmacaster.
-"You can't stop what Lokar has set in motion, soon this city will be his and I'll be away from here with the reward of immortality." The woman said.
-"So that's the only reason you're doing this?" Maya asked mad.
-"No…" The woman said and then she glared at Ky.
-"Is for revenge as well, you killed my husband." The woman applied.
-"Well, you two should've thought better before getting into the life of crime." Ky mocked.
-"You insolent kid! You won't…" The woman said but then she was decapitated by the shot of a speargun, but Ky wasn't holding it and he didn't have it but soon he saw that Maya took his speargun and shot at the woman.
-"What? She never stopped talking." Maya said.
-"I guess my absence made you a bit more aggressive." Ky said making a love glare at Maya, though he had the mask on.
-"You have no idea." Maya said making a love glare at Ky as well.
Their moment couldn't last when someone approached the place.
-"You may have defeated everybody here you brat, but you will never bet me." Lokar said entering the room.
-"We'll see about that Lokar! Get ready to be on my trophy wall!" Ky said as he grabbed his combistick and wristblades.
-"So be it." Lokar said getting ready for battle.
