Chapter 3
CRUNCH!
I felt it, the earth under my feet was crushed under my feet as I bolted forwards, closing the distance between the giant Scorpion in what felt like a second or so I quickly stopped right next to it's claw and using my momentum I twisted my entire body and threw the heaviest punch I could ever conceive.
The giant claw immediately flew backwards as I heard-I felt it dislocated from their main body, the evidence shown as it's clawed arm dropped like the giant sack of potatoes it was now.
SCREEEEECH!
Letting out a maddenning grin as I watched as the damn thing stumbled back and then in retaliation it raised it's stinger and instead of running away or waiting for it to come down on me I lunged forwards.
Leg raised, I threw a side kick into the insect's carapace covered face, I could feel my cybernetic foot crack the things armour from the force and with it the insect's body was pushed backwards a good couple feet as it's legs stopped it from being pushed back any further.
The thing's body seemingly just dropped as if it had been knocked out, instead of going for the kill though my head quickly went back to Ruby who was just getting up.
Looking back up at the sky though I could see that Nevermore was in the air but from a certain point of view I could just barely tell that it was just circling around.
Rolling my shoulders I quietly jogged away towards Ruby or to be exact her fallen weapon.
"Jackson?" Hearing her voice though I paused midway through getting her weapon and looked at her.
"Sorry Ruby, I'm going to have to borrow Crescent Rose for a bit." I said picking up the scythe, a weapon I had some experience using previously. "I don't have a whole lot of time so you can absolutely shit on me later, for now I'm going bird hunting."
Raising her Scythe I dropped it against my shoulder before taking a second or two to breathe.
"How long do I have, Overclocking I mean?"
Lowering my body downwards my hand slowly gripped the earth.
"Depending on your use it can be between times such as ten minutes but that's if you are not going all out, honestly though full power with some rough estimates and the consumptions of your body's own lipids and body fat… five minutes, but you can regulate it via taking ten second breaks in order to breath so it can fluctuate between but once again I'd say five minutes overall."
"I got five minutes, I'll try to come down before that." I mumbled before pushing against the ground with my feet and pulling against it with my free hand, with the combination I found myself sprinting full ungodly speed across the clearing until I finally hit the treeline where I pushed my cybernetic legs down and shot right through the air.
"COME HERE TWEETY BIRD!" I cried out at the top of my lungs as I flew right through air, knowing better I was probably not going to hit the stratosphere from my jump but by fucking god did it feel like I was going to make it, my eyes tracking the giant bird as it seemed to circle, their head moving upwards as it had clearly heard me.
"Let's see if I got this right!" I said loudly as I quickly repositioned Crescent Rose with it's blade situated behind me and with the pull of the trigger I felt the recoil of the larger weapon push me further towards the Nevermore.
"Yes!" I yelled out in manic joy as my hand quickly grabbed Crescent Rose's bolt and with a twist push and pull I loaded another round in the chamber, another pull and recoil continued to push me as I was now in a more controlled fall where I was heading towards the Nevermore that I could just see climbing up towards me.
"COME AND DIE YOU FLYING TURKEY FUCK!" I roared as I loaded another into the chamber and instead fired downwards forcing me to shoot right towards the Nevermore, where it opened it's giant maw and got ready to eat me hole, the idea just got me grinning as I twisted I twisted my body mid-air and swung Crescent Rose with all my strength.
The large blade doing it's immediate job as it stabbed in between the Nevermore's jaw, lodging it in the monster's muscles and into it's throat, with it hooked though I used Crescent Rose swing over the Bird's maw and land right on the back of head/neck.
Getting a better footing I loaded one more in the chamber and pulled a little bit as I readied myself for one helluva coup de gras.
"Next time try swallowing something else cockbite!" I yelled as I pulled the trigger and the recoil from Crescent Rose's rifle and with me pulling forced the blade to bisect the Birds head from their body.
With that I let out a tired laugh as I finally felt my body fall alongside the corpse of the slowly fading beast.
Edger Allen Poe can eat his fucking heart out.
Using the corpse to break my giant fall I still felt my body jolt as I managed to roll right off the things corpse and right onto the ground back first.
"Ow!" I managed to let out as I felt the heat from my body slowly disappear with it though came the new problem in the form of my body exploding in pain, something I had completely forgotten about until now.
"Oh by the way if you don't die Expect to feel your body's entire nervous system explode in pain from the complete over exertion of your Nanobots being put into Overclock mode, trust me you're going to wish you woke up in the healing tubes."
Regret was the first thing I thought about as my body continued to spasm, why did I even think Nanobots were a good idea!?
"Nanomachines, Son!"
"Fffffffuck you S-S-Senetor ARMSTRONG!" I cried out as I felt my eyes slowly close.
GRRRR!
Quickly my eyes open and I knew that I was not done yet, fuck me.
gritting my teeth through the pain I remembered my time before I ended up in this place, the fucking days of death I had gone through, the grueling torturous deaths and if you thought I was going to die so god damned soon then you are fucking mistaken.
pulling myself up I saw what looked to be a bear, the thing was black and covered in some thick looking armor, something I was growing quickly accustomed to lately, pulling Crescent Rose up I stabbed it's spear side in the ground and used the weapon to help me onto my feet while this thing slowly lumbered towards me while I glared at it.
But just as I was going to try and defend myself I heard the telltale sounds of shotgun fire and a yellow blur shot right over head, blinking my eyes seemed to focus on the yellow as it turned out to be a girl that drop kicked into the bear with little issue.
"Jackson!" Slowly turning my head around my eyes bulged as something slammed right into me and I felt my entire consciousness fade as I knew from whatever just hit was the last straw before I fully lost consciousness.
Beep Beep Beep
"Mmmhp sigh." Blinking my eyes open I could god damn feel I was in pain like serious fucking pain, god damn I can'ts move… ok thats not true I can move my hands and feet but thats only because of the cybernetics.
Where the hell am I?
Opening my eyes I quickly closed them as it was too damn bright, and that damn Beeping… fuck I'm in the hospital aren't I? Damn I guess that whole shit show I went through wasn't some weird BS dream I went through.
Suddenly I heard a door slide open and someone quietly walked in, great just in time.
Taking a minute to speak, I heard the person who walked into the room quietly and I could feel them mess around with something on my arm, probably the IV drip and I chose that time to quickly speak.
"H-hey, c-can you turn off the lights… please?" I asked my voice hoarse as my throat was drier than an Amy Shcumer stand up show.
"OH! You're awake! Hold on, let me get the Doctor." Quickly as they spoke I heard them quickly walk away and I let out a tired groan, god fucking damn it.
Sucking in a deep breath I slowly forced myself to move, and fortunately enough I did not feel much of anything that would resemble unimaginable pain… gotta be drugs, how else could I explain how my pain was quickly going away.
"God I damn well hungry like starving, Jesus I could barely move." I mumbled as I found my lack of real energy was because of my empty stomach.
Hearing the door open once more I finally opened my eyes and I saw a familiar red themed girl standing at the door.
"Oh shit… hey Ruby." I weakly greeted as the girl seemed to blink a couple times and her blank expression shifted to show one of absolute excitement.
"Jackson!" hearing the cry I couldn't help but cringe at the volume but the red blur of the girl had me reeling back as I found Ruby was quickly at my bedside, her expression was one of something something I don't know I don't care to really think about it but at least the girl was ok.
Unlike me of course.
"What the hell were you thinking! You could've died! Or that's what the Doctors said and I was so worried too!" Ruby loudly exclaimed as I knew that I had this coming.
Why couldn't I have died already?
"Ruby… water please?" I asked as I at least hoped they at the very least thought to leave something of water around in case someone woke up after being through the ringer.
"Oh yeah hold on, here drink it slowly, my dad always says that it's better to drink slowly or else you'd choke." Ruby said as I felt a straw was placed betwixt my lips, quickly I sucked on and I happily started to swallow the life-giving liquid as it thankfully wet my throat.
"Sigh finally… Now what is going on? Where am I? And… why the hell are you wearing a uniform?" As I just asked, Ruby was indeed wearing a school uniform, something I felt kinda fit the teen… not physically speaking of course but age wise seeing as she was well under seventeen and all, here's hoping I'm not going to be seeing Chris Hanson any time soon.
"Well I'm sorry to say Jackson but it's been Two years since the initiation and you were in a Coma."
…
…
…
Silence screams volumes as I gave Ruby my best version of my own cousin's dead bitch face stare and slowly I watched how she seemed to frown before one of us finally broke the silence.
"Alright fine it's been two days!" Score one for me, Ruby nil.
"Thank you, wasn't so hard to tell the truth now was it?" I casually spoke with a teasing tone, something Ruby seemed to pout at.
"How long until I get out of here?" I asked, my previous time in medical situations having prepped me to be in and out within minutes of walking up to the infirmary, but that was back with Skinner heading the infirmary.
"Nurse Tsune said you should be ok in about a week your pro-pros-your arms and legs seem to have done something to your body." Ruby explained as I felt like I was running on empty food wise I could barely pick up my arms but that didn't stop me from trying.
I pushed my arm down on the bed and slowly heaved myself up while I lightly grunted and gritted my teeth in discomfort until I was fully sitting up.
"Ruby… you got any food on you?" I asked looking at the girl as she seemed to blink, head quickly darting around the room until she let out a tired sigh and quietly pulled out a medium sized container, something I probably should question as to where she was was holding but I'm too damn hungry to think about it too much as she slowly peeled open the container.
Inside sat a large amount of cookies and it just had to be my favourite, chocolate chip.
"I'm going to regret eating this later but stuff it I'm hungry and these are my favourite." I muttered under my breath reaching out to grab a cookie only for the container to be snatched out of my grasp.
…
…
…
"Ruby… what are you doing?" I asked, staring up at the girl as she was hugging the container like it was her new born child.
"T-these are my cookies, a-a-and I worked hard for them and I'm not letting anyone have them." Ruby said in a rather hysterical way and I mean crazy not funny.
"Ruby, I need food or else I am going to pass out I can already feel myself slipping." I explained as I could feel my vision slowly darken from the edges.
"Y-yeah well-"
"Ruby just one… I just…. Aaaah fuuuuuck." Oh shit there I go losing consciousness.
"Jackson?"
FML.
