Chapter 3: Old Wounds healed
The South eastern Empire Palace
The palace was a hive of moment as soldiers scrambled to armour up and ready themselves for the upcoming Battles, Troops in their Dozens boarded the Kantu Gunship, Mechs and armoured helicopters where also loaded onto the gunship. King Jigen loaded up on his weapons, sheathing a chainsword and a plasma shotgun. He sighed; he didn't want it to come to this, but now Joe was a powerful and dangerous monster now, they needed to put him down before he caused any more harm. C was ready, carrying her staff and loading up on potions and a plasma pistol just in case, Riddler stood Impatiently behind her " C you can't be serious, just you and Jigen, why not me come along as well at least "
" Riddler you saw Joe, even I have my doubts we can take him down now, Joe could potentially kill all of us now, if we catch him now we may have a chance of killing him" Said C as she made her way to Kantu
"How are you even tracking him "
" He's like a dark energy battery now, I can track his energy, He's moved into Kentucky now, why I don't know but we need to intercept them "
Jigen went to the Kantu Bridge , he began landing preparations
C went onto the landing ramp " Bro, If we don't come back, take care of the Kids, your in charge if we die, make sure Joe can't do anymore harm " she said as the kantu took off, Riddler watched as his sister sped away in the gunship, he crossed his fingers, " Come back please
Kentucky, Eden Gardens Suburbs
Kyru sat down on the couch beside her Son, Neil had been feeling ill all day, she didn't know what was wrong with him, but he was getting worse " How are feeling now sweetie" she asked dabbing his forehead "Still bad mum, I, Uhh.. " He groaned as his stomach twisted, he felt ...something getting close to him it... it was here.
Before he could say anything more, a titanic earshattering boom was heard outside, the window's where torn apart and a great wind tore at the two, Kyru covered her son, Neil now writhed as he felt it outside, the great power coming for him. The wall infront of them exploded sending masonry and shrapnel flying around the room, Kyru watched as a figure walked towards them, a hulking reptilian monster that laughed as it saw them both, " So this was where you where hiding all this time, in a shithole suburb , ironic "
Kyru recognised that voice, " Joe... oh dear god what happened to you "
" I woke up, I was released from my cocoon, and now I wish to give you what you deserve" Kyru was about to reply When Joe's massive reptilian hand shot out and grabbed her by the throat lifting her up " Just to let you know even if you had stayed this would have happened eventually" HE said as his hand glowed with Dark Energy, the blast tore into Kyru, burning a hole through her, he let the limp charred corspse of his lover fall to the ground as he stepped over it towards his son
Neil could barely move as the powerful Dark energy radiating from Joe, " D..dad " He managed to stutter out
" Yes my son , allow me to free you from this awful cocoon " Said Joe as his hand began to glow black light, Neil started screaming as soon as the light hit him
