Chapter 2
Old Buddies
The arcade was fun. It was a huge building even for an arcade. Inside 6 tried his luck at a 1st person shooter terminator game, Lightning Strike on his cloaked which made him look like an African American with dreadlocks and was fighting Sharktooth who was in his skin. Komodo was doing dance, dance revolution with BOTH player pads at the same time. Aquatica just played pinball. She looked at the others and smiled, she knew the vision in the water of them having dinner was true but she didn't know where or when it would happen. After she finished another game she ran out of quarters, she then opened her bottle of water and some of it floated out on her hand. It flattened and became a quarter. She inserted it in the machine and played another game. Once she finished she looked at the machine, it was based of Shrek but she was more focused in the reflection in the machine. There were two men coming towards them. "Excuse me," one said ",we need you to do a survey." Aquatica rolled Riptide in her pocket and said "Sure." She was surprised it wasn't a trap and continued to play. Later on they went to a pizza bar and sat at a huge table. The place was wrapping up and the manager even asked them to lock up for him. "Wow," Komodo murmured as she slid piece after piece of pizza into her mouth ",this is the best pizza I ever tasted!" Lightning Strike nodded "I went here with a family once, it was a fun time." Aquatica replied "This is actually my first time tasting pizza." 6 replied "Well this is my second!" they all burst out laughing then the door in the kitchen opened. A man with brown hair, green hoodie, blue jeans, and white shoes walked in. "Excuse me, did you see my friend Roger?" Aquatica shook her head. He pointed at the bar and said "He's the tender." Before Aquatica could say anything Komodo change into her lizard form, red long nails, yellow eyes, and a lizard muzzle. She raised a pistol and shot the man in the throat. He cried in pain and fell backward. "What the Hell are you doing?" Sharktooth cried. Komodo took off her sweater to reveal a jump suit with many compartments on it for weapons. "The bartender gave us the keys and told us to lock up, if he gave us the keys what's he doing here? Also the tenders name isn't Roger, it's Bill." The man got up, whit blood dripped from his neck. He said "Damnit, this is the third time." He charged at the group but 6 took off his bandanna and changed. His skin became black, his nails and teeth became sharp to the point, he grew a tail the lashed around like a snake. He became an alien. The scar of the 6 on his forehead shown brightly. 6's tail lashed around and pierced through his chest. He cried out as he fell to the floor. "Quickly we must leave." 6 said and ran to the back of the bar. When Aquatica got to the back door she put a hand to her head and thought "UG A headache." When the door opened combat androids stood aiming their rifles. 6 charged but man grabbed him by the neck, Komodo went to save him but she was shot, Lightning Strike was tazed and fell to the wall. Lightning Strike clicked Riptide and the sword came out. Before she swung one shot her and she fell down. She yelled in pain when she hit the brick wall behind her. Soon the man threw 6 to the wall. "Jacob," 6 said ",how are you doing?" Aquatica then saw Jacob's face. It was half synthetic and half human. Jacob replied "Shut up, they will be here any minute." Finally Sharktooth ran out only to be punched in the face by a man in a black leather jacket, he was bald with sideburns. Sharktooth retaliated but he ducked and kicked him. But the man wasn't finished, he picked Sharktooth up and headbutted him. Sharktooth fell back in confusion while the man didn't even flinch. Then Aquatica felt a droplet on her nose. She looked up to see the dark clouds covering up the moon. She waited then it started to shower. She waited, waited for the wound on her to heal. But strangely nothing happened. "That's weird." She thought then a black car pulled up. Out came a neatly dressed man holding a golden desert eagle. He had two scars across his face and had black hair that hung over his face. He looked at them and said "Lightning Strike." Lightning Strike replied "I know those scars." The man smiled "You do don't you. Can you guess my name?" Lightning Strike hoarsely replied "Mikey?" he nodded then shook his head. "Almost, I used to be Mikey, now they call me Mr. Mike, I control the drug trade and Weyland Yutani now." He looked at the others and said "You have really made some friends over the years. " He grabbed Sharktooth and said "You will die soon. I guarantee it." He pushed Lightning Strike down and then said "Where are my manners, we have a guest here. Please have me welcome Plague!" out from the car came a man in a black cloak with a witch doctors mask on. "Hello, I am Plague. We will destroy you on our way to world conquest." Komodo could barely see the eyes in the mask. He took out a very long knife and brought it to Lightning Stike's neck. "You all will die." He the flicked it away, a tiny trickle of blood oozed from the wound. 6 Jumped up and he sliced at 6's neck too. Aquatica could barley see it move. Mr. Mike said "Well you might as well get it over now." He cocked his desert eagle and aimed it at Lightning Strike's head.
