(Thanks to zackt2010, Zro-Kemuri 9t6, jamesss, AlexTheMortal, angie2282 and Lance-Dusk for your reviews! All right, surprise in this chapter (YAY!) and i start to answer many questions. (YAY AGAIN!) read on,
Tally had been waiting for roughly twenty minutes since Rose had left to capture up with Zeke. After ten minutes of that time, Leslie and Conner had come back.
"Why are you here?" Tally asked involuntarily, but then got the answer from her mind straight away. "Well at least another mutant's dead. And the other's are alive... but I can't help but have a funny feeling about Zeke being alone with those two..."
As Tally said this, Conner walked past her, throwing a rock between his hands. Tally jumped slightly, not because there was an odd sense with him, but because he actually felt... normal. Tally shook her head and realised Leslie had said something. "Pardon?"
"I asked how the other's were doing."
"Oh... they look fine. Mila's still unconscious, Alex is showing no signs of being alive apart from breathing, and Riley's fallen asleep."
Leslie sat down next to Tally and looked up at the hills. "I can't help but think about this whole situation, y'know."
Tally knew exactly what Leslie was about to say, but kept quiet out of respect.
"I mean, we've already defeated Jigsaw, and most likely going to get Hades, since... well since Rose is here now." Leslie shook slightly, and Tally sensed that he knew Rose without reading his mind. "But... we've killed one of theirs, and how many of us have been killed? I think its 5, and who knows where Max is. Most likely dead. And we still have eight more to kill, including Freddy and Jason. And finally we have to combat Death. We will even survive to confront him?"
Tally found Leslie's mind full of turmoil, and she was unable to concentrate on one part of it. But before she could prowl anymore, a sudden cry of despair sounded over the wind.
Instantly Tally clutched her head in pain as Leslie whipped around, where Mila was standing, shaking slightly. Riley had been woken and knocked slightly sideways, her leg banging against the chassis.
Mila slumped her shoulders and moved around blindly. "W-We're not moving... w-what happened? I-I remember fighting with William but... but... nothing."
Leslie cringed, not particularly wanted to tell Mila, but he knew he had to. "Well... I'm sorry Mila, but you were completely distressed. Your powers went out of control, and ripped the truck in two."
Mila's blind face paled, and she shakily stumbled forward. "I-Is everyone all right?"
"Well..." Leslie sighed. "Some were injured... but... Rain was a fatality."
"R-rain... no! Not Rain! She's smart, she wouldn't..." Mila shook her head and turned, but hit the side of the truck. She slumped against it. "... it was my fault..." Mila suddenly lurched forward, and shot at Leslie.
Leslie was too shocked to move, and Mila embraced him in a hard hug, her chest racking up and down. Since her eyes were no longer there, she was unable to cry. Leslie awkwardly patted her on the back, when he suddenly felt as if a jolt of electricity ran through his body.
X-X-X-X-X
Leslie was high above a wasteland, as if floating in mid-air. He tried to move his hands, but was unable to. Instead, he focused down below, and saw a scene of horror.
On one side were black demons, some fiery, some red, even a few giant beast-like ones. In front of the easily 50,000 plus army were seven figures. Leslie saw that there were none other than the generals, with Death in front, his face in a grin and his eyes glaring before him.
The other side was a much smaller force, but as deadly. Tanks rumbled on the ground, troops marched behind, grim faced, rifles slung on their shoulders. Helicopters rose overhead, chattering in the rainy sky. There were around 3000 people in this army, but some hosted rocket launchers or Gatling guns. Leslie noticed from his spot in the sky human's cloaked completely in black sneaking around the back of the opposite army. Finally, Leslie saw that demon's were actually with the human's, standing side by side, in their claws truncheons.
From the mass of humans, a sudden screech rang out. A woman burst from the force, a bandage around her head, covering her eyes. Leslie realised it was none other than Mila and she was screaming with Rage. Suddenly the ground ripped around her, and a great tornado spun and spun. It grew bigger, into a maelstrom, completely engulfing both forces. Humans were flung like ragdoll's and demon's were extinguished. Before Leslie could see anything more, a human flew straight at him. As it neared, Leslie was shocked that it was him, his face bloody and chunks of his flesh missing.
Suddenly, everything went black.
X-X-X-X-X
Leslie jumped back, tripping on the floor, his eyes wide. His scarred face had turned pale as he turned to Tally, who was equally as pale.
"Wh-what was that..." she whispered.
"I-I... saw the future... saw what was to be... but... an army, not possible... not at all..."
Tally shook her head, remembering Roses thoughts. "But it is... when Rose came here, I saw her mind. I saw many human's and even demon's... if they are on one side... but how?"
"What happened?" Riley asked, hopping into sight, using the side of the truck to keep herself steady.
Tally looked to Leslie, and in an instant they nodded, agreeing that they wouldn't tell anyone until they knew more.
Mila's looked confused, and cocked her head.
"What is it?" Leslie asked, just as Mila's eyes widened. "Mila? What..."
Mila suddenly let out a grin like never before, and breathed a sigh of relief. "Just wait... just wait Leslie..."
Leslie looked at her oddly, before shrugging and settling himself down as Mila concentrated on something. Suddenly Leslie heard it. It was a chattering, like a... Leslie shot up, and squinted his eyes.
A huge helicopter with three spinning rotor's was in the sky, moving fast. Leslie saw that there were guns mounted on the side, mounted by people... actual people!
Leslie, Tally, Mila, and Riley waited with amazed patience as the helicopter slowly lowered itself and landed upon the floor. The rotor's continued to spin as a woman jumped out, brushing her long black hair away from her eyes as it whisked around in the breeze. "Come on ya lucky mother fuckers. Times' a wasting!"
Leslie recognised that voice, and suddenly it came to him. "N-Nat? Nat Jennings?"
Nat grinned, motioned to the helicopter with a machine-gun. None other than the one she had smuggled into Camp Crystal Lake. "The one and only. Questions later, for now, get on the damn helicopter. The other's are already here.
Shaking his head in amazement, Leslie jumped on, followed by Tally, before Nat helped Mila and Riley up.
"There's two more, ain't there?" Nat asked, peering into the darkness.
"Yeah." Riley said, pointing down to the truck wreckage. "Over there. One of them is quite heavy..."
"Cool." Nat turned into the vast space of the helicopter. "Hey, Zach, get your ass over here!" The now large Zach Dryer appeared as if out of nowhere, dressed in camouflage. He nodded to Leslie.
"Hey hey! How're you doing my friend?"
"Z-Zach... what the hell's happening?" Leslie asked, unable to help smiling in happiness.
"Later later. Any who, come on beauty, let's get the others."
Nat punched Zach's arm. "Stop trying to flirt with me. I'm a lesbian, remember?"
Zach snapped his fingers, laughing. "You caught me, let's go." With that Nat and Zach jogged towards the wreckage.
Leslie shook his head in wonder, and turned into the helicopter interior. It was large enough to fit four large cars in. Leslie walked forward, and noticed in the corner near the fron two people handcuffed to a railing.
The first was William, his cheek blackened a bruised, his shoulder bloodied through his ripped jacket and his hand a mulch of gore and bone.
Leslie blinked in shock, and saw that the other man was Trent. His teeth were broken, and some were missing. Trent's leg was extended before him, bloodied.
"Wh-what..." Leslie said, but jumped slightly as a hand clapped his shoulder. He turned around and saw a tall muscular man with brown eyes and short hair.
"Hello Leslie. I believe we met slightly at Crystal Lake. My name is Carter Banks, remember?" Carter said, smiling friendly.
"Carter? What, the guard?" Leslie suddenly shook his head, and pointed to Trent and William. "What..."
"Traitors." Carter practically spat, eyeing William and Trent evilly. "Zach went a bit overboard and had to be dragged back from Trent. Apparently he wanted to have revenge from being killed by him. That's why he was so happy. Rose will explain much more, as it's not my place."
"Rose Milano?" Leslie guessed, but Carter suddenly slapped his head.
"Damn it, stupid me. I keep forgetting since there are two main 'Roses' we're meant to call the leader Leardel."
Leslie found that the name didn't ring any bell at all. He shook his head, glancing at the two 'traitors', before suddenly realising something. "Wait, where Zeke? He's not..."
"Zeke's fine Leslie." Carter said. "He's in stable condition at the moment. Come on." Carter led Leslie into a small room, which was white and smelled like a hospital.
In fact, a female doctor and three nurses were inside, bundling around Alex, Mila, and Riley. In the corner, laying on a bed, was Zeke, his eyes closed, but the heart monitor beeping. The female looked up with a clip board. "Leslie Carlson? My name is Alice Chantrey. I'll be treating Zeke when we get back to base." Alice suddenly stiffened as a serious looking woman entered.
"All right troops. What's the situation?" Rose Leardel asked, looking to Carter. Carter stiffened and saluted.
"We have four injured ma'am. One fatality since last informed, and we have captured the two traitors."
"Which are injured?"
"Riley, Mila Abernathy, Conner Shepard and Alejandro Thebes. A sprained ankle, apparently missing both eyes, suspected concussion and in a stable coma ma'am."
"Good work General Banks." Rose said, before looking to Leslie and Tally. "You two, come with me. I've got a lot to talk about."
