134 Once Again

“Don’t you dare touch him,” Fulton said to Rocke, his eyes burning with rage, but also relief and joy at the same time.

“It looks like you’re not taking orders anymore,” Rocke said, pointing his gun at Fulton who quickly aimed his own gun at Rocke. “So you betrayed me.”

“You betrayed me a long time ago,” Fulton said. Rocke sighed and shook his head, “And you wonder why.”

Malachi’s eyes widened with his jaw open.

Fulton’s eyes mellowed into anger. “Was that why you killed my adoptive parents, who loved me? Is that why you killed my mother, because I’m trying to get revenge for those that I love?!” he shouted, glaring straight at Rocke.

“Yes,” Rocke answered simply.

All of us gasped.

“You act as if I care. You were a child that always kept me from doing the work of what I believe. You were simply a roadblock in my life, and I plowed through it,” Rocke said, looking at Fulton dead in the eyes. Fulton’s eyes grew wider with anger.

“No,” he said softly, lowering his gun slowly and letting it hang loosely in his hands, his face showing disappointment at his own words.

.....

Rocke nodded his head slowly, “You are right. I did betray you a long time ago, but for the better. And I’m not afraid to plow through you again.”

He raised his gun at Fulton, and my eyes widened. I needed to save him, but how? How could I save him? How could I save everyone?

Fulton shook his head and lowered his gun slightly in response, and then suddenly there was a shot fired off in the room, and I had no choice but to do this. I ran and jumped, leaping in front of Fulton, trying to take the bullet away from him in one go. It was the only chance he had of surviving at this point in time.

But all of a sudden, the ship started shaking. The ground began to tremble, the walls vibrating, and I fell backwards onto my behind.

A second later, the wall exploded, sending debris everywhere, hitting me directly on my backside as I struggled to get up again. There was blood splattered across the floor, and I saw Fulton lying on his side near it. “Fulton!” I shouted, running towards him, struggling to lift him up. His hand slipped from mine when he tried to stand up on his own, and he lay flat on his back.

I picked him up gently, cradling his body in my arms, as I stared up at Rocke. “Malachi?!” I shouted. “September?!”

“Connor!” Nikki shouted, jumping up from her knees, crying hysterically. She threw herself against my chest, hugging me tightly as she cried uncontrollably. “You okay?!” she asked and I nodded, looking around. Soon enough, Tisiah, Vicki and the rest came.

“Fulton?” Vicki asked, kneeling down next to me. Her eyes widened with worry.

I smiled at her weakly and held up Fulton’s limp arm so they could see his pulse through the sleeve of his jacket. “Get him out of here,” I said to Malachi. “I’ll deal with Rocke.”

“For the hundredth time?!” Tisiah said, rolling his eyes. I nodded to Tisiah. He sighed as they began to pick up Fulton’s limp body, carrying him away as Nikki continued to cry into my shoulder.

“What is going on?” she asked. I put my hands on her shoulders. “Nothing,” I said with a smile. “Nothing.” She sighed and nodded, continuing to hold me as she cried into my shoulder until they finally came back with Fulton.

I looked up as Rocke walked towards me slowly.

“It’s funny, because you didn’t give them the Cybermade,” Rocke said. “Fool.”

“I’d rather kill you then get the Cybermade,” I said with such an intensity, I felt a shiver down my back at the words I spoke out loud to him.

“I can’t wait to see that,” he chuckled. “Remember, I still have your Perk.”

“I know,” I said with a chuckle. “But I know how to use it better.”

He chuckled, and suddenly charged at me, but I was able to get out of the way easily. I quickly swung a punch, aiming it at the top of his head, but he ducked under it. Then he came back at me with a hook that caught me in my side. He swung a left at me before kicking me in the stomach and knocking me on my back.

“You’re already rusty,” Rocke said with a chuckle, as he looked down at me with disgust.

He picked me up by my collar and tossed me into one of the walls. I hit the wall hard with my side, which made me cough up a mouth full of blood that spilled down over my lips and chin. That hurt, not gonna lie, but I had to ignore it in order to keep going.

I got up on my feet, picking myself back up off the ground with some difficulty.

“It’s so funny how you still don’t know how to fight,” Rocke said to me while I stood up. “But I know how to keep going,” I said. We charged towards each other again, but this time I took a different approach. Instead of swinging the first punch, I shifted to the left side, grabbing his arm and using my weight to pull him off balance with his arm. He didn’t realize what had happened until I used his weight to throw him towards a table in the corner of the room.

But all of a sudden, he jumped off the wall, and charged his fist towards me, catching me in the side again and knocking me back towards the wall once again. I felt a pain in my ribs that hurt badly and made me gasp for air as I pushed myself up off the ground again and kept running after him.

I’m not gonna stop, never am I ever going to stop, I thought to myself as I kept chasing after him. All of a sudden I tripped over something and fell to the floor with a loud thud, but then I quickly rolled and got up, grabbing hold of him by the neck before he could turn around and throw me into the wall once again. I felt him grab ahold of my arms and hold on tightly to me as we struggled to get free from each other.

But then his eyes began to glow red, and I mean red, like that blood red, and then his eyes suddenly shifted and looked at me through different eyes that were black, as if they were burning a hole right through me. Suddenly his arms blazed red, and suddenly he threw me into the wall. But I crashed through these walls, and fell through them like they were nothing. And then I fell through them again and again, and each time they cracked more and more and more, until finally they crumbled away like they were paper mache.

I finally stopped at what seemed like a kitchen but it was empty though. My bones felt like mush and mashed potatoes, which were scattered on the floor in front of me from when I crashed through the wall. My shirt was tattered to shreds from being dragged along the floor for who knows how long as it was completely torn apart.

I could see Rocke walking towards me, his eyes flaming with evil, but also with satisfaction. He smiled wickedly as he watched me fall onto my backside in front of him as he moved closer to me.

“You’ll never win against me no matter how much you try!” he shouted, looking at me menacingly, but also with joy at the same time. I noticed he was breathing heavily, as if he had just ran a long distance or perhaps even killed someone before he came here.

I coughed again, spitting up blood from my mouth onto the floor. I needed to get up quickly! I got up from my feet, and charged up my Perk again, quickly before he threw in a punch, which caught me in the gut. I looked at him wide eyed as he stared down at me. Then he grabbed me by my collar and threw me against a countertop, which made me feel like I’d been thrown into a brick wall, as I felt the pain in my back.

“You will never!!” he shouted again, his voice booming like a lion, as if it were going to crush my body from the inside out. His eyes began to glow once again, as if they were burning right through me. And then he suddenly opened his mouth wide as if to swallow me whole, but instead I saw something come out of his mouth that flew towards me in the air.

It was a blaze of red heat or something like that. I quickly stomped the ground, sending a shockwave that sent him flying the opposite direction towards me, as he landed with a crash onto the floor next to me. I immediately turned my attention back to the thing flying in the air, as it continued to fly towards me and landed on top of me and covered me in this red fire or heat or whatever it was.

I needed to get the Cybermade and run.
