Chapter 5: Outsider and Friend. (3/4)
"Alright, enough fucking around!" Jordan spoke as he pointed his CZ-100 at the overweight man's face. "Where did you assholes to the people that were camping here?!" He asked the man as he pressed the barrel of his pistol on his forehead.
After Fox Boy incapacitated the two men without killing them. The three of them were able to find some plastic handcuffs inside of their car that Jesse used to tie the two up. By the looks of it, those restrainings were for Jordan and Leah.
Currently, both were on their knees right in front of the left side of the car.
"I'm not telling you shit." The overweight man replied to Jordan's question. "AH!" And Jordan responded by smashing his temple with the bottom of the gun. "Motherfucker!" The man yelled as his head began to bleed after the strike.
"Oh, did he hurt your feelings, kid?" The other man asked with a smirk. Causing Jordan to look at him angrily and strike him on the cheek with the bottom of the pistol.
Jesse and Fox Boy were simply standing there, a few steps away from Jordan and the two men. They were simply watching everything without really getting involved.
"Look, we should just get back to the house." Jesse spoke to Fox Boy in a low voice.
"What about Jordan and his friends?" Fox Boy asked in response.
"Truth is, maybe this is for the best." Jesse explained. "We didn't know if his people were going to be a threat and since they were taken by another group..." However, Jesse made a strange face after saying that. "And these Rattlers may notice that those two didn't come back and come looking for them." He pointed out the possibility as he sighed and touched his face in visible distraught. "Great, just what we needed."
However, Fox Boy didn't understand. "Why would we need another group coming to us? " He asked in confusion.
Jesse simply looked at him with a strange face in response to his question.
"Last chance, assholes!" Jordan yelled in anger. "Where are my fucking friends!?"
The big man just chuckled in response to that. "Wow, that almost sounded scary." Jordan looked at him furiously. "Come on, show me if you have the guts, baby boy." The man challenged him with a smile.
"Motherfucker, I'll ki-'" Jordan angrily aimed his CZ-100 at a man with his uninjured arm. However, the moment he took aim, the man broke free from his restraint and grabbed the gun by the barrel with his left hand before throwing a haymaker into Jordan's face. Causing him to let go of his pistol and stumble backwards.
Fortunately, before the big man could shoot Jordan with his own gun. Fox Boy quickly drew his Mark 23 and fired at the man.
"AHH..." The shot landed on the left side of his jaw, causing the man to stumble towards the car and colliding into the car door while placing his hand at the spot where the .45 ACP bullet hit him.
"Oh shit!" The overweight man immediately stood up and tried to run away. Only for Jesse to stop him by grabbing and shoving to the ground before pointing his Kimber Custom at him.
Jordan angrily touched his cheek after getting punched and immediately moved towards the big man, where he yanked the CZ-100 off his hand and proceeded to smash the man's head over and over and over again with the bottom of the handgun. Until the man fell on the ground and once he did, Jordan pressed his CZ-100 on the side of his head and pulled the trigger.
"Ah shit!" The overweight man looked away after his partner was killed. With Jesse and Fox Boy standing near him with their handguns at hand.
"Piece of shit!" Jordan angrily yelled as he stomped on the corpse of the man that he just killed.
"Look, you better tell us what we want to know before he comes here." Jesse suggested because Jordan seemed very angry. "We don't really care about the information, so if he kills you, it won't matter to us." He informed the man as Jordan was the only one interested in knowing the location of his friends.
"Fuck," The overweight man was visibly frightened. "Okay, okay, I'll tell you."
"Hey, he decided to talk." Jesse informed Jordan, who was still beating the dead body.
Jordan turned around and immediately rushed towards the three of them, wasting no time in aiming his CZ-100 at the man. "Talk!" He yelled angrily at the man.
"Alright," The overweight man spoke in response. "We took them to a motel, not very far from here."
"Why?" Jesse asked him.
"We..." The man seemed afraid to answer. "We're going to trade them for supplies."
"Trade them?!" Jordan asked.
"They are slavers." Fox Boy revealed to them as he overheard them talking about trading slaves.
"What the fuck!?" Jordan was visibly repulsed by that.
Jesse seemed to have the same reaction as Jordan due to the facial expression that he made, but he only had one thing to say. "Who exactly were you people going to trade with?"
"Some group that one of our guys, Geralt, found while he was checking radio frequencies." The guy answered his question. "I think they are called Normandies."
"Ah shit!" Jesse immediately reacted negatively when he heard the name. "That means they're coming our way, we gotta get back to the house and warn the others." He told Fox Boy in clear fear.
"Hey, hey, hey..." Jordan was quick to speak up. "Rewind a bit, who the fuck are the Normandies?" He asked the two in confusion.
"They are the group that destroyed Jackson." Jesse explained. "It's a massive group, enough to fill a football station and they are all heavily armed." The overweight man seemed to be paying attention to what Jesse was saying. "Bulletproof armor, submachine guns, grenade launchers and the list goes on."
"Actually, it was simply because Jackson was a low-level invasion." Fox Boy decided to correct him, causing the three of them to move their heads to look at him. "When it's a high-level invasion, the Faceless are armed with a variety of firearms like the Heckler & Koch HK416, the Heckler & Koch MG4 and the Heckler & Koch SL9SD." The submachine guns are mostly for low-level invasions.
"Wait, how the hell do you know that?!" Jordan asked.
"He was one of them." Jesse revealed to him. "Look, I'm sorry, but we gotta get back to our people before the Normandies get here."
"Wait, are you fucking serious?!" Jordan asked him angrily.
"We barely got away from them last time and I rather not test our luck a second time." Jordan declared in clear determination. "Let's go, we gotta pack our things and move out."
"Move out to where?" Fox Boy asked in confusion since the reason why they were staying in that house was because they didn't really have a destination to go. And because they were all recovering from their injuries.
"We'll figure it out." Jesse responded as he gently pushed Fox Boy in order to get him to move.
"Wait!" Jordan yelled at the two.
"Listen," Jesse moved his head to speak to him. "We all lost loved ones when Jackson was destroyed and I'm planning on doing whatever it takes to avoid losing more people." Fox Boy remembered that Dina told him that Jesse lost his mother. She was gunned down by the Faceless alongside other prisoners under Ghost Head's orders.
"Look..." Jordan seemed to be considering something. "Help me and you guys can come back with us." He offered them.
"Come back to where?" Jesse asked him. "You still haven't told us where you and your people are from." It was true, by the looks of it, they belong to some type of group or community.
"Look..." Jordan scratched his temple with the barrel of the gun. Something that was considerably unsafe to do. "My friends and I are from Seattle."
"You guys from a Quarantine Zone?" Jesse asked.
After martial law was declared, quarantine zones were set up by FEDRA and the U.S. military to protect the remaining uninfected population of the United States by separating them from the infected. That's what Reaper told Fox Boy, having a firm belief that the idea of a Quarantine zone was foolish and doomed to fall apart.
"Nah." Jesse denied it. "It's kind of a long story but I belong to an organization called Washington Liberation Front and they overthrew FEDRA in the Seattle Quarantine Zone a few years ago."
"Okay..." Jesse responded while making a strange face. "But no thanks." He quickly refused the offer and again tried to move Fox Boy away.
"Are you fucking seirous?!" Jordan asked angrily. "You rather roam around aimlessly?!"
"Honestly, yes." Jesse was quick to answer before he lifted his index finger. "Because A; I don't know anything about this Washington Liberation Front, you could all be a group of cannibals for all I know." Fox Boy once had to dig out a corpse and eat it so he wouldn't starve to death, so he understands the necessity of cannibalism at times, though he hated it and would rather never eat human meat ever again. "B; you may be willing to let us come with you, but your buddies may not be as willing, and I'm pretty sure that your place won't be as willing to take a bunch of strangers in just like that." He pointed out after lifting his middle finger. "And C; it's the three of us armed with nothing more than pistols, how the hell do you expect us to even deal with these Rattlers?"
"I could sneak into their camp and set the prisoners free." Fox Boy decided to suggest it. Causing Jesse, Jordan and the overweight man to look at him.
"Fox Boy..." Jesse opened his mouth to say something but then he quickly closed it again. Then he gave him a considerable strange look. "Well, you did sneak into Jackson several times without anyone noticing." Not true, he was caught by the man called Seth. Jesse then sighed and asked. "Do you want to do this?" He asked Fox Boy.
"His friends will either be used to create more Faceless or become test subjects for Venus." Fox Boy was sure of it, though there was a chance that they would be used for labor or something else. "It is better to avoid that." Since they go through immense suffering in the process.
"Does that mean you're gonna help me?" Jordan asked them while he had his handgun aimed at the overweight man.
Jesse scratched the back of his head. "I honestly think we should at least go back to the house first, and get better weapons." He suggested since they were all armed with only handguns.
"The only weapon that is fit for a stealth approach is the Mark 23." Fox Boy spoke as he pointed at his handgun, since it was the only one that actually possessed a suppressor, which was inside his backpack. In truth, Fox Boy actually got used to the Mark 23, the accuracy and reliability in extreme environments really paid off, despite it being unnecessarily large and heavy. "All of the others are only going to be useful if a gun battle occurs, though the SV-98 would certainly be useful if you would like to give me support from a distance."
"I'm not good with sniper rifles and he ain't using one with that arm." Jesse was quick to point out that was not going to happen. Then he looks up and sighs. "And now that I think of it, if we go back, Maria will probably shut down the idea of us rescuing his friends." Maria seemed to be the kind of person that hated to take unnecessary risks.
"So we don't go back and just go straight away." Jordan responded before signalling the overweight man to stand up. "Get fuck up, you fat piece of shit!" He yelled at the man.
"I still think we should-" Jesse tried to argue.
"Dude, these assholes might be torturing my friends right now!" Jordan pointed out his reason for wanting to hurry. "Or worse, because these assholes have sexual predator written all over their foreheads!"
Fox Boy, after hearing that, just kneeled down and looked at the overweight man's wrinkled forehead, the man just looked at him with a confused expression as Fox Boy analyzed him. Then he tilted his head a little to the left before saying. "I don't see it." The albino boy pointed out as he moved his head up to look at Jordan. "Is it written in Invisible ink?" Because he didn't see anything written there.
Jordan made a shocked expression then he looked into the sky while slightly lifting his hand up before looking at Jesse with a very strange facial expression.
Jesse on the other hand, just covered his mouth and chuckled a bit in response for some reason.
Fox Boy was confused, so he just moved his head back to the overweight man and continued to search for the words "Sexual Predator" written on his forehead.
Sadly, he couldn't find where it was written. Since he had to stop searching when Jesse told Fox Boy to get in the car before he grabbed the overweight man and dragged him to the car. Jordan also got inside and they all drove off to the location where the Rattlers settlement was located.
Fox Boy sat on the passenger's seat, while Jesse sat on the driver's seat driving the car. Jordan was sitting behind Jesse, with his CZ-100 aimed at the overweight man that was sitting behind Fox Boy.
"How far up ahead?" Jesse asked the overweight man and he drove down a road covered in snow.
"Just a mile up ahead." The overweight man responded as he held his hands up.
"Okay, how the fuck did you fucks managed to capture my friends anyway?" Jordan asked in clear confusion.
The overweight man sighed and said. "Look, two of your buddies, a girl with short hair and a guy with stubble-" He began his explanation, but Jordan interrupted him.
"Mel and Owen, what about them?!" Jordan recognized the descriptions right away.
"Okay, the girl was yelling something to the guy, and then out of nowhere, she began to puke on a tree." He explained as the trio heard him closely. "And while she was busy throwing up, Pat smashed the guy's head with a bat and we grabbed the girl and used her as a hostage to make the others surrender." Simple yet effective strategy.
"Wait, then what were all of those empty bullet cartridges on the ground?" Jesse asked in confusion, since by the story he told, it was a simple, nice and clean surrender.
"Ummm..." The man seemed reluctant to respond, but Jordan made an angry face and seemed to be ready to pull the trigger. "The buff girl didn't want to go down quietly."
Jordan sighed in response. "Fucking hell, Abby." He seemed to be very upset with this "Abby". "What happened?"
"Do you really wanna know?" The man made a very strange looking face when he asked that.
"Speak up, motherfucker!" With Jordan insisting on it.
"Fine," The man strangely sat as far away from Jordan as possible. "Four of us held her down and took turns beating her up with a bat." He revealed to them, making Fox Boy and Jesse look back to see the man in response.
"What?!" Jordan widened his eyes in response.
"While they were at it, the others fired at the ground to scare your friends off." He admitted as he looked away in fear.
"Is she dead?" Jordan asked angrily as he clearly prepared to shoot him.
"No, Geralt wanted to... Play with her." He answered.
"Please tell me that is not what I think it is?" Jesse requested, with Fox Boy not knowing what exactly he thinks it is.
"It isn't, Geralt's definition of playing is... something else..." Apparently, none of them actually knew what he meant by that.
"Oh for fuck's..." Jordan seemed visibly upset about the situation. "Step on it."
"Roger that." Jesse seemed to understand his upsetness and quickly accelerated the car while still being careful with the road.
Ellie Williams:
"Are you kidding me?!" Dina asked her in clear disagreement.
"Dina, he's not our fucking problem!" Ellie was quick to rebuff.
After Jesse and Fox Boy left to take Jordan back to his group, Dina decided to go upstairs and take a shower since apparently, they had running water now. Currently, Ellie was in the bathroom, inspecting the stab wound on her shoulder while Dina showered.
"We weren't his fucking problem either, Ellie!" Dina replied in clear annoyance.
Ellie decided to inform Dina of the plan of ditching the Albino Weirdo as soon as they found a place to stay. Needless to say, she was not a fan of the idea at all.
"Come on, don't make this more difficult than it needs to be." Ellie was honestly not really in the mood to argue with her.
"Sorry to break it to you, but everything has been nothing but difficult since what happened." Dina pointed out the obvious to Ellie. "So, this is what we are now?" She asked her. "A bunch of ungrateful assholes that just use people and then ditch them."
"It was Maria's decision, I'm jus-" Ellie tried to argue but Dina was having none of it.
"Bullshit!" Dina slightly opened the shower curtains . "Anyone from a mile away can tell that the one that wants him gone the most is you!" She was right about that. "I mean, what exactly is your problem with him anyway?!"
Ellie was starting to get mad at Dina. "My problem is that he was one of them." That was something that Ellie couldn't forget about, especially since he actually helped them locate Jackson. "Also, he is so fucking creepy, like how can you be so fucking confortable when you're around him." Just the sight of that creepy mask makes Ellie uncomfortable. "And I really don't like how he keeps clinging up to you at times." She lost count how many times she felt the urge to stab him when she saw him hugging Dina.
"First; he "Was" one of them, but I think it's established that isn't the case anymore." Considering that he basically went against the Normandies to help them escape. "Second; what the hell do you find so creepy about him anyway? I think he's fucking adorable, that childlike wonder of his is actually really endering." Ellie did think that it was kind of cute, but it's usually ruined when he stares at her with that creepy mask. "And third; I literally thought I was the jealous one in this relationship."
"I'm not jealous of that Albino Weirdo!" Ellie got defensive about it. What the fuck is that to be jealous about? He's a scarred, scrawny little weirdo with a creepy mask!
"Good," Dina then opened the shower curtain. "Because jealousy doesn't suit you at all." She pointed out as she washed her hair.
Ellie just smiled as she saw Dina stand there naked with hair loose in front of her.
Dina noticed her smile and smiled back.
Slowly, Ellie removed her clothes completely, from her T-shirt, her jeans and then her shoes. Slowly removing her bra and panties and placing them on the floor. Before she also untied her head and let loose. Wasting no time and stepping into the shower with her girlfriend right away. Feeling the water falling down on her.
"Look, Fox Boy isn't a bad person, just give him a chance, okay?" Dina requested as she was hugged from behind by Ellie.
"Let's... Just not talk about that anymore." Ellie requested as she planted kisses on Dina's neck.
Dina sighed in response and said. "Alright." Before she closed the shower curtains once again.
Fox Boy:
"Is that the place?"
"Yeah..."
"Those are our cars."
Eventually, after a quiet ride, they arrived at the Rattlers settlement. To the surprise of the trio however, the place was way larger than they expected. It was a motel with twelve rooms, which formed an L shape with nine rooms on the long side and three rooms on the short side, with a breezeway in-between. The motel was clearly abandoned for what appears to be decades as the place was in visible decadence. There are shades of buttercream yellow colors on the walls, navy blue doors, white window sashes, and brown trim and a large extended front porch in front of all the rooms, with the porch roof and breezeway joining the two motel structures. The motel seemed to be largely constructed with wood clapboard siding with wood doors and window sashes. Outside, there is a large gravel parking area. There were cars all over the parking area, common looking cars, some military vehicles that actually fit the description that Jordan gave them and a large cargo truck. Behind the motel sits the angled and custom builded house that seemed to belong to the owner of the motel.
"Do you think you can sneak inside?" Jesse asked Fox Boy as he pulled something out of his backpack.
"Yes." The "something" was the suppressor of his Mark 23. "Should I kill the Rattlers?" He asked Jesse, since he could just sneak inside and rescue Jordan's friends, but he could also kill all of the Rattlers quietly if necessary.
"Umm..." Jesse only made a confused face in response.
"If you're so sure you can do it, yes, kill all of these fuckers." Jordan was quick to respond to him.
"So... I brought you here, are y-'' The overweight man tried to speak to them after, but before he could, Fox Boy shot him in the head with the suppressed Mark 23. Startling Jordan and Jesse.
"What the fuck!?" Jordan reacted as the overweight man's dead body fell on top of him.
"What did you do that for?!" Jesse asked him as he looked at him.
"I'm killing all the Rattlers." Fox Boy bluntly responded as he opened the car door and stepped outside. They were considerably far away from the motel, which allowed them to stay out of sight in case of someone being on watch.
"Fucking, fuck..." Jordan cursed as he opened the car door and kicked the dead body out of the car.
Fox Boy took a short look at the motel, before he kneels on the snowy ground and rests his buttocks on his heels. Basically sitting in a seiza style.
"What are you doing?" Jesse asked him in confusion.
But Fox Boy didn't respond. Instead, he simply lifted his hands up. "Rin," Hands together, fingers interlocked. The index fingers are raised and pressed together. "Pyō," Hands together, pinkies and ring fingers interlocked. Index finger and thumb raised and pressed together, middle fingers cross over index fingers and their tips curl back to touch the thumbs' tips, the middle-fingers' nails touching. "Tō," Hands together, index fingers cross each other to touch opposite ring fingers, middle fingers crossed over them. Ring and pinky fingers are straight. Tips of ring fingers pressed together, tips of pinkies pressed together, but both sets of ring and pinky fingers are separated to form a V shape or bird beak. "Sha ," Hands together, ring fingers cross each other to touch opposite index fingers, middle fingers crossed over them. Index finger, pinky and thumb straight, like American Sign Language "I love you". " Kai," Hands together, fingers interlocked. " Jin," Hands together, fingers interlocked, with the fingertips inside. " Retsu," Left hand in an upward-pointing fist, index finger raised. Right hand grips index finger, and thumb is pressed onto the left index's nail. "Zai," Hands spread out in front, with thumb and index finger touching. "Zen." Hands form a circle, thumbs on top and fingers on the bottom, right hand overlapping left up to the knuckles.
With that, Fox Boy performed the Nine Hand Seals, a system of mudras and associated mantras that consist of nine syllables. Is a tool to be used in meditation but is often confused with an esoteric practice which was meant to allow a ninja to enact superhuman feats.
"What the fuck are you supposed to be?" Jordan, who was watching him with Jesse, asked while giving him a strange look. "A Japanese Ninja?"
"No." Fox Boy replied before standing up. "I'm a Danish Ninja." He was actually a Ninja, since he received extensive training in Ninjutsu from Reaper. But he was Danish, not Japanese.
With that, Fox Boy moved forward.
"We are so fucked..." Jordan spoke with a strange tone of voice.
But Fox Boy didn't pay attention to that, because after a few steps, the masked boy sprinted forward towards the motel. It was the beginning of noon, so he couldn't expect the advantage of nightfall aiding in his infiltration.
After running for a bit, Fox Boy dived forward into the snow, in order to hide his presence in case of someone being on watch. However, as Fox Boy suspected, there wasn't anyone on sight, at least not in an advantageous position. I assume that these individuals aren't well trained since this is basically security measures. Fox Boy thought as he camouflaged himself in the snow and slowly crawled towards the motel.
There were no signs of another blizzard, which was a shame since it would have been advantageous to Fox Boy.
"I don't like this shit." As Fox Boy approached the parking lot, he heard a man's voice.
"I don't like it either, but so fucking what, we already came so far, there's no point in quitting now" Another voice was heard.
The Albino boy crawled towards the back of a red car, and hid behind it in a crouching position. Peaking through the right side, he saw two men. One was wearing a red parka and the other was wearing a black hoodie. They were both smoking cigarettes.
"What if these guys shoot our assess as soon as they arrive, we're low on ammo man." The man wearing a black hoodie pointed out.
"It doesn't fucking matter, stop thinking about that shit already." The man with the red parka replied after he removed the cigarette from his mouth. "Honestly, we should have just killed those idiots that we bump into by accident ." He was probably referring to Jordan's group.
"Yeah..." The other man agreed. "Why the hell do we lock them in the basement of that house instead of the truck with the others?" The man asked in confusion.
Fox Boy moved his head to look at the cargo truck, realizing that the slaves were being kept there.
"Dude, one fucking breach and those fucks will break free, it's not worth the risk." The man with the red parka explained.
"This is going to backfire on our assess, I just know it." The man in the black hoodie pointed out as he tossed his cigarette on the snow and proceeded to walk away.
"Where are you going?" The other man asked.
"Check if there's any booze left." He responded as he walked away.
"Hah!" Unknowingly, to the man wearing the red Parka, Fox Boy got out of the cover and slowly approached him from behind. "Good luck with that!" He yelled with a chuckle as Fox Boy got behind him. "Fucking snow..." The man commented before placing the cigarette back on his mouth.
Only for Fox Boy to actually place his left hand on his lips, pushing the cigarette into his mouth, before kicking the back of his knee and pulling him into a back mount position. "Mmmm!" With the man grunting in pain as the cigarette burns the inside of his mouth. But Fox Boy wasted no time and drew his knife, stabbing the man in the throat. "Aaahhh..." It took a few seconds for him to die.
Then he pushed the body off of him and placed the knife back on the sheath. Once he did, he simply looked through the car window in order to check if the man with the black hoodie was nearby, instead however, he caught the sight of a group of four men, standing near one of the rooms. They seemed to be laughing at something, but that wasn't important. I could create a distraction, but it could indicate that there was an intruder in the settlement. He thought he needed to take a stealth approach to deal with this. Moving his head down however, he had an idea.
Which was kneeling down and proceeding to remove the parka from the man that he just killed. If I stand straight, I almost have the same height as him, his pants are darker, but the parka should cover it. Fox Boy thought as he put the Parka over his duffle coat. The extra layer should make up for my frame. He thought the man was bulkier than Fox Boy.
Once he put the disguise on, he pushed the man's corpse under the car to hide it. Then he puts the Parka's hood to the point where his face was barely visible and stands straight up, before making his way to the rooms of the motels. I need to be careful and take them all out quietly . He thought as he walked by the cars and reached the proched where the rooms were located.
There were ten rooms in total, and they seemed to be in the seventh room.
Thankfully, the disguise seemed to have worked out, since they actually saw him but none seemed to realize that it wasn't the owner of that coat. Keeping his head down, he slowly walked past the group, who barely paid any attention to him.
According to that man, Jordan's friends are all locked inside of the basement of the house behind the motel, so I nee- Before he could finish that thought, he heard a voice calling him. "Hey, Lou." The voice came from the door that he just passed through, three doors away from the group of four. It was the man with the black hoodie again. "Found some booze, come on." He invited Fox Boy, thinking he was the one called Lou.
Fox Boy responded by giving him a thumbs up, and the man simply signalled him to get inside before he entered himself.
The room was in terrible condition, the walls were corroded, the carpet was decomposed and the furniture was barely recognizable. There was a door in the end of the room, right on the other side of the entrance that had a considerably damaged bathroom inside. There was also a window with rotten curtains right besides the door that he just came in.
"Don't say a word or the guys are going to grab it for themselves." The man with a black hoodie said with his back turned as he moved to grab a bottle of whiskey from the damaged table inside of the room. But Fox Boy simply approached him as he did. "Fucking Geralt, always the greed-" Once the man turned around, Fox Boy pulled out his Fairbairn–Sykes fighting knife and stabbed him in the neck with it. "Ahhh..." That was the small grunt that he made as Fox Boy gently placed him on the floor after he removed the knife.
Once he was dead, Fox Boy moved towards the bathroom to check if there was a window.
There was.
"NO!" However, before he could pass through the window to continue his way to the house, Fox Boy heard a scream coming from outside. "GET OFF OF ME!" Causing him to immediately move towards the window to see what it was. Carefully, he moved the curtains to see, only to see a man with long hair, dragging a girl with short hair through the porch. "AAHHH!" The girl screams in despair.
"Shut the fuck up." The man with long hair punched the girl in the face before grabbing her by the hair and dragging her past the room.
Losing sight of them, Fox Boy slowly moved towards the door and opened a very small gap in order to get a better view.
"Wait, where is the other one?" One of the four men from earlier asked as the long haired men dragged the short haired girl towards the room.
"Geralt said that we can't afford to damage another one, so he told me to only get one." The long haired guy responded.
"Fucking hell!" The same man cursed in response. "I'm going first then." Before he grabbed the girl and dragged her inside of the room.
"AAAHH!" The girl screamed as the now five men dragged her into the room.
She must be one of Jordan's friends. Since by the direction that they came from, he can only assume that they came from the house behind the motel. Taking a deep breath, Fox Boy knew that he had to help her. But doing it now, would probably result in a fight that could attract the attention of the other Rattlers.
"AAAAHHHHHHHH!" However, her loud scream quickly killed any doubt.
"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" As the scream sounded way too familiar. "NO! PLEASE! NOT IN FRONT OF HIM!" Fox Boy had to slap his head to make it stop.
"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!" Once another scream came from that room, Fox Boy stood up and prepared himself, taking one final look at the man with the black hoodie. Only to see the bottle of whisky on the floor, which gave him an idea. So he grabbed it and left the room.
Slowly, he walked towards the room where the five men dragged the girl with the bottle of whisky in his left hand. Pulling out his knife from the sheath and hiding inside of the sleeve of his coat. "If I feel any teeth, I'm gonna rip all of them with a pair of rusty players!" He heard someone say as soon as he stood in front of the door.
With his head down, Fox Boy knocked on the door. It took exactly nine seconds for someone to open it. "Lou?" His disguise was still working. "What is it?" It was a dark skinned man wearing a green windbreaker.
Fox Boy didn't say anything, he simply lifted his left hand up and showed him the bottle of whisky.
"Motherfucker, so there was a bottle left." He immediately took the bottle off his hand. "Get in, but you're the last one in line." The man spoke as he signalled him to get in before he moved into the room.
Fox Boy did as he was told, slowly getting inside and closing the door behind him. Once he was in, he came across something horrendous. The short haired girl was on top of an old mattress on the floor, laying on her back, wearing no pants or underwear while her top was ripped apart. There was a man with a shaved head with his pants down on top of her, inserting his genitals inside of hers roughly.
A second man was kneeling down right beside her, grabbing her head and forcing his genitals into her mouth. He was completely naked and had tattoos all over his torso
"This would be better if we got that black girl too." A third man was standing beside the bed, watching as the two forcibly had intercouse with the girl. He had a scar on his cheek and was wearing a long coat.
"Shut up." The long haired man was standing in front of the bathroom door.
"Check." The dark skinned man tossed the bottle to the man that had a scar.
"This will do for the wait." The scarred man spoke as he opened the bottle and gulped down.
"Where did-" The dark skinned man turned around to speak to him, only for Fox Boy to actually lift his head up and reveal that he wasn't the one called Lou. "Wha-" Before he could react properly, Fox Boy, in a very swift move, sliced his throat using the knife that he hid on his sleeve. "Ahh!" As he grabbed on to his sliced throat and the others realized what just happened. Fox Boy actually pushed him towards the man that was in front of the bathroom door while simultaneously throwing his knife at the man that had the whiskey bottle.
"AH!" With the knife landing on his chest and causing him to drop the bottle of whisky and fall backwards into the floor.
Then, Fox Boy shoved the dark skinned man and caused him to collide with the long haired man, who attempted to grab him but ended up stumbling backwards into the door of the bathroom that opened and caused the two to fall on the bathroom floor.
The two men that were forcibly having intercourse with the girl immediately stopped. "AAAHHH!" Only for the tattooed man to yell because the girl bit his genitals. "Fuck-" With Fox Boy actually drawing his Mark 23 right away and firing a precise shot into the temple of his head a second after.
"Shit-" The shaved head man attempted to stand up from the bed, but the second he did, he was greeted by a bullet to the forehead.
Fox Boy was about to turn around and finish the long haired men as well. However, the moment he did, the long haired men tackled Fox Boy into the floor, causing him to accidentally drop his Mark 23 once he fell on the floor. "Motherfucker!" The long haired man yelled at him as Fox Boy hooked both his legs behind his back, placing him in a full guard. "I'll kill you!" And then he attempted to punch Fox Boy with his left fist. Clearly not realizing that he was wearing a mask that protected his face, so once his fist connected, Fox Boy actually grabbed his hand and used his position to perform a Omoplata Shoulder Lock on him. "AH-" With Fox Boy placing his hand on his mouth as he completely breaks his shoulder completely.
Once his arm was broken, Fox Boy let go of the submission and stood up. Unfortunately, as he was about to move to retrieve his handgun, the scarred man stood up holding a FN FNP on his hand. The knife almost hit his heart, missing by a few inches to the left. However, once he took aim at Fox Boy, two shots came out of nowhere and hit him in the chest. Causing him to fall on the floor once again. Only that this time, he was clearly not going to stand up again.
Moving his head to the right, he noticed the short haired girl standing there, with bruises on her face and her naked body, staring at him with a strange looking face while holding his Mark 23. Her hands were shaking and she aimed at Fox Boy. With the Albino Boy simply paralyzed in place, not because of fear, but because she reminded him of someone.
"What's with that face?" The voice echoed in his head again. "Come on... I want a smile..." Suddenly, the girl seems to have morphed into a different person entirely. This different person was someone that Fox Boy really wanted to see again.
"Hi Misery..." He waved happily at the person standing in front of him.
Only for the person to pull the trigger of his Mark 23.
Q AND A:
Got a healthy chuckle from Jordan telling Fox that he'd get him next time and that Fox just completely ignored him and Dina told Jordan he'd be crippled for his efforts
Also loved Fox Boys attitude of essentially not giving a fuck about the interrogation going on Je just wanted to go and build himself a snow man
Definitely appreciate Maira being the one to say that Fox Boy has been hard carrying all their asses but also kinda fuck her and everyone not named Dina for planning to try and send Fox away when they don't need him just need some to acknowledge now then that they need Fox say more than he actually needs them
With Jordan's bitching I'm reminded that at least Joel dying at the hands of Reaper prevents that bitch Abby from getting even the slightest bit of satisfaction for, killing Joel
Oh dear god Fox Boy is going to have to help the dumbass brigade isn't he Meh so long as Fox kills all of them later I'm good haha
So with Wolfgang then I'm imagining he was receiving training from or at least interacting with the masked ones with Fox Boy being a afterthought in said training or interactions but almost immediately the original Fox realised who the one of value was between the brothers then Reaper did till eventually all the masked ones came to acknowledge Fox Boy over Wolfgang and they all pushed for him to be given a place among them
Hey if Joel still bites it Jesse absolutely should still bite it just in this he doesn't posthumously leave behind a kid
Yep while he might have a few more scars I'm praying Fox Boy is still as fully capable as he is now if not more so due to just being stronger
Dina is not wrong, if the two ever fight again, Fox Boy is going to cripple him.
He's kind of clueless when it comes to this kind of stuff.
To be honest, Fox Boy is kind of worthless without someone to tell him what to do. It's kind of his main weakness.
And her revenge quest caused more damage than anything. With Mel's suffering being the highlight of it.
Not quite, he may have a hand on it, but not directly.
Kind of, Wolfgang excelled in everything he did, but his arrogance, lack of discipline and refusal to follow orders made them favor the less than stellar Fox Boy more.
Don't worry about that.
Let's just say that... Each confrontation with the masked ones will take a heavy toll on him.
The start of a new chapter is as engaging as ever. Excitedly waiting to read the next chapter.
- Ellie's group in this story is much smarter than in the game. In the game, he reveals himself to a group of people he meets for the first time. In the first part, be careful not to reveal your identity first.
- Now fox boy is not accepted in the group much. In the future, will we have a chance to know his real name?
- After hearing Maria tell what happened to Jacksonville and hearing the name Normandy. Jordan did not show any symptoms.
Fireflies have never heard of Normandy. Or maybe Abby's only hearing.
- Will the future see the Fireflies burn to the ground?
If we didn't meet today good afternoon good evening and good night too.
It's mostly because Maria is a cautious woman.
Unfortunately, only his brother knew. So he will either have to stick with Fox Boy or get a new name.
Nobody ever heard of Normandies until now, because they mostly operated outside of the USA.
I have no idea.
Same...
Grandioso!
BRAVOOOOO!
So Abby and her crew got captured, surprising on how they got caught so easily with little to no struggle. They might have poor character, but almost all of them are capable fighters especially Abby and Manny. Their capture might be for the better though, because if Fox Boy and Jesse rescue them with Jordon then they'll owe them one. Could quell any desire for them to be hostile despite their mission to kill Joe Miller which is no longer a factor.
Didn't see the Rattlers appearing coming. The Normandies must employ them for capturing people, slaves that can be used for Jester and Venus' experiments. In return the Normandies provide supplies and weapons for the Rattlers to survive. Fox Boy might've heard about groups the Normandies employ to capture people and undead to use as experiments.
It won't be hard for them to learn about the Normandies involvement with the Rattlers. Jackson being destroyed will further worry.
Nice to see Ellie finally starting to warm up to Fox Boy. Dina took Fox Boy leaving with Jesse to escort Jordon back to his group better than expected. Clearly she has more faith in Fox Boy's abilities.
Fox Boy is about as blunt as it gets, doesn't know how to behalf normally, or joke. Its going to be fun for the group to explain that to Abby's group, when they themselves have little understanding about it. They probably petty and feel sorry for him really.
The Rattlers got them by surprise by using Mel and Owen as hostages due to the two being distracted due to an argument that they were having away from everyone.
Unfortunately, Fox Boy always got minimal information from the others.
Yup.
She saw it first hand, and honestly, a guy that can handle a bunch of armed soldiers with bulletproof armor, can handle normal people.
Mostly Owen and Mel, the rest mostly use him for their own end.
Obrigado pelo capítulo incrível, Autor-San!
De nada.
