"Those substations are old so they're going to need to come online in fits and starts," John explains from a one message call. "You're going to need to defend each one until it powers up."
I grin as the electricity seems to crackle in my veins, empowering me with the energy of a power plant (in my mind at least). It makes me feel like I can do almost anything. That's when some First Son troops come along, rushing up to me. Another grin threatens to split my face and in my overcharged state I remember. These are the guys who helped Selene kill Trish. So these guys can feel the full power of my anger and grief. My arms are raised up and I grab the string, yanking down the lightning at my command. Green-blue lightning crashes down in front of me and trails the pathway towards the First Sons. To my side, a silvery-blue lightning bolt and a bright blue lightning bolt each travel upon their designated pathways. The clouds nearly block out the sun as the trio of thunder bolts slam into the ground from us, electrocuting any unfortunate First Son member in their path.
"Yeah, bring it on," Cole says as he presses his hand to the electrical wire mesh, fueling up in seconds before unleashing another thunder storm.
"We're almost there," Morgan reports, checking the meter at the side. "Keep it up." Silver clutches a hand on the electrified mesh of metal as she recharges from it, even draining it like a TV to hasten the recharge. Suddenly all the lights blink green and the station is finished charging.
"That one's good to go," Morgan says as she pats the machine. I leap down to the ground, coming off the power high with a shake of my head. We check our GPS's for the next station and walk over to it.
"So how much did Moya know about me?" John asks before reporting the time. "Fifty-two seconds."
"Hell if we know. Is it really that important?" Cole responds with the question as we rush out of an alleyway and pass several civilians. They smile and take pictures, but we don't stop for them. We're four conduits on a mission here.
"She works for a different agency and knew I was undercover. If she knew that much then it also means the NSA has been compromised, that someone is outing agents," John replies with seriousness in his tone. "Our entire national security apparatus could be exposed. Twenty-nine seconds."
"I think we've got more important things to worry about right now. We can deal with that other stuff once we've taken care of Kessler," Cole says, gritting his teeth as he mentions Kessler's name. The four of us duck into another alley as our movements bring us closer to the GPS location.
"Don't forget his girls; Selene and Caia," I add, remembering the strange women as well. When we reach the substation, Silver's the first one to leap upon it; electricity crackling in her arms as she stretches. I can imagine how she's feeling; just the power flowing through her body.
"I'm seeing lots of enemy movement in your area. Get ready for a fight." John hangs up as the first trooper rushes from an alleyway. The surrounding area seems to be filled with several tight alleyways, meaning she'll need to control her lightning in order to strike the ones on the ground and not the rooftops. My sister grits her teeth as she lifts her arms up, calling down the lightning at her command. A huge silvery-white pillar of electrocution falls from the sky, only to be joined by a blue-white and green-blue pillar of lightning.
Dozens of First Son men rush up to us with their guns and assault rifles. And they all fall down to the power of our lightning. A single lightning bolt is at least ten times hotter than the suns surface, and holds enough energy to power the entire United States. Of course, that's with natural lightning, not conduit lightning.
"You sons of bitches!" Silver cusses at them with gritted teeth as lightning falls down from the sky to take out a bunch of the soldiers. Morgan fires off twice from her shotgun and thumbs in a few rounds, pumping it once fully loaded.
"Die." Cole says darkly and I notice his lightning go from blue to red for a moment, almost as if it changed with his emotions or something. I charge up from the station as Morgan tells us that the second one is charged up. John loads the final GPS location into our phones so we can finish the job. And along the way, my phone rings.
"I saw what you did for Trish. Believe it or not I know how hard it is to bury someone you love. Especially someone as special as Trish." Selene's voice says into my ear as I hook up an earphone cord to the cell.
"I'm going to kill you Selene. I'm going to pound your ass into the ground, tear you apart piece by piece and incinerate your remains," I growl out as my blood boils in anger at this woman mentioning Trish's name.
"Yes, you probably will. In fact, I hope you do. You see Luna, we've been at this for a very long time now, my sister and I. And you see; we're very tired. Worn out. Won't be much longer now," Selene replies with almost no change in tone of her voice, making me get even angrier.
"How about you come out right here and now bitch? I'll be more than happy to kick your ass," I back talk with anger and grief for Trish fueling my hate.
"All in good time Luna, all in good time…" Fucking bitch. The final station is where Cole jumps onto the electrical charged plates and groans as the energy courses through him like wire. Yet again those bastard First Sons continue to assault us in their futile effort to stop us from giving power to the final island. Lightning scorches the ground in burn marks from the heat and energy as we take down Kessler's troops. It's not long before the final substation is powered up and the electricity floods the rest of the district.
Next up. The gas balloons and the beginning of the end. It seems now two of my stories are coming to an end. This one and my other one: Longpaw Zombies. So what on earth do I do next? Maybe re-work my Naruto X Longpaws story or possibly do an Assassin's creed story. Who knows? Anyhow on to the Re-reviews.
Ancient Liddel: Yeah, like when guarding the medical supplies.
General Herbison: Thanks. Hope you like the rest.
Alright now, that's all for now. Now currently I don't have anything planned for the next chapter of the story due to homework and other things. But that's life.
