Chapter 6: Death By Water
"I'm sick and tired of this, Mr. Granger! I didn't agree to destroy an entire race when I signed up to work for you! I agreed to get what you wanted and deliver it and that was it!" Wolf barked as he and his employer watched the chemical mix with the water. "Kind of a dumb statement Wolf. You claim that you didn't want to help wipe out a race and yet you delivered the merchandise that will do the job nicely, as long as those....those Smash Brothers don't show up! Which is why I need you here now. Stay with the chemical until it is completely mixed and then press the key code on that control panel. I will be heading to the Empire States Building to watch the fireworks. See you on pay day." With that, Granger chuckled, got in his car, and drove off.
Wolf turned and looked at the swirling chemical as it twisted and turned in the water, and wondered if this was the right thing to do. Should he wipe out an entire race and earn his well-earned fee? He tried to shake it out of his mind but it kept coming back like a bad cold. Suddenly, Wolf heard a faint sound and then a sharp stinging sensation in his back. Regaining his balance, Wolf turned around and saw Sonic, Mario, Luigi, Link, and Snake standing there. "You're too late heroes. Within minutes, the water system will be polluted with Dawson's chemical and this city will be dead." Wolf said. "You guys go and take care of the chemical containment, I'll take care of our furry friend. I still owe him for a wreck on the road a few days ago." Snake said. The other heroes left to head towards the main control room while Wolf and Snake faced each other down.
The two adversaries circled each other for a few moments while staring straight into each other's eyes. Both determined to win over the other. Both determined to claim victory and prove who is the better. They never looked away from each other's eyes as they continued to circle and then with a loud growl, Wolf leapt onto Snake and started biting at him and slowly tearing his outfit to shreds. Snake knew that Wolf was going for the skin and the heart so he had to keep trying to throw him off him and fight back. Snake punched Wolf off him and then quickly grabbed his knife before Wolf could recover. Snake threw the knife at Wolf's chest but all it did was puncture the armor but leave his skin and fur untouched. Wolf once again retried his pouncing attack but this time Snake was ready. Snake put his fists together and hit Wolf on top of the head while punching down. Snake then heard another odd sound behind him and saw the water going down but the turbines were still spinning. The others had stopped the virus! Just then, Wolf got up and knocked Snake off balance causing him to almost fall into the turbines. Wolf jumped on Snake and continued to try and rip his heart and lungs out. "Now, you die human!" Wolf said as he started reaching Snake's skin. With only seconds left before Wolf killed him, Snake used all his might to lift Wolf with his legs and threw him into the turbines. With a quick whine and a horrible sound afterwards, the fight was over and the victor was left the spoils.
Snake got up just in time to see the others running over toward them. "What happened? Where's Wolf?" Mario asked. Snake looked down at the bloody turbines and then back at the others. "What does it matter? It's over. Now it's up to Fox to finish this."
