Now that there is another Argent X OC story out there, I guess I'm going to have to step my game up. This chapter is a lot more detailed, and has a songfic embedded in it. So hopefully this will impress my skeptics.
Chapter 7: The Confrontation, Part One:
Jeff had a hard time explaining his history with Will to the Titans. He felt like no matter where he went, his life would catch up with him. He knew what Will was, he was another him. He was another person that could end his life. He had to confront him.…..
Jeff, now in his Switchblade attire, was heading to Jefferson Memorial Tower, a large business complex for filing, tax purposes, and all things boring. It was the tallest building in Jump. There was no way Will wouldn't spot him on top of that monstrosity.
Jeff knew there wasn't another him. He was his own man.
Switchblade finally reached his destination without remembering the walk to the place. It occurred to him that he was still was a criminal, and had a warrant out for his arrest. He couldn't just stroll through the joint. Peering through the double-pained window outside, he could see the entrance to emergency stairs. He sat and waited for an opening. He found it and shot through the door, clinging to the wall, he propelled himself to the ceiling and climbed atop the lights. Now all he had to do was agilely walk across the sidewalk-like lighting fixtures and get to the other end of the room. When he made it, Jeff nonchalantly swung down, latched himself to the top of the doorway and landed in the maintenance room, complete with a stairwell all the way to the top of the massive skyscraper.
Of course, making his way up 100 floors of stairs was no easy task, so Jeff just made an exercise out of it. He back flipped and somersaulted from bar to bar, floor to floor. Eventually making it to the roof. It was nothing special, a concrete platform and a helicopter lading pad.
Thirty minutes went by as Jeff sat on the edge of the roof and no sign of Will. He sat up and turned around to see Red X, although he had a mask on, Jeff could still sense a cocky smirk brewing on his face.
"Another me is what there will never be, another life like this you'll never see"
Switchblade quickly threw a punch but Red X quickly dodged it and connected with a kick to Switchblade's jaw. Red X quickly pinned him to the ground and pressed a dagger to his throat, Switchblade could see the blood stains from the last time He used it on him.
"Another day is all I think about, equal we are when time runs out"
"Listen to me you stupid basted, you played the hero, now your going to pay the price. You will kill the titans, and if you don't, I will kill that girl you love so much RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU" Red X said those last five words with emphasis into Switchblade's ear. "Do you understand me?" He continued.
"Another memory I seem to be, in a life long game of monopoly"
"…Yes… I understand…" Switchblade regretfully agreed.
"Another direct line I want to bend, another form of disease I want to end"
Author's Note: Another short chapter I know, but like I said, there will be many more chapters to come. YEAH! I like this chapter, It's so drenched in emotion. Hopefully this can compete. I feel like this story is becoming a little mediocre, so if you are reading this please review! I want to know if I should continue this, or just give up.
