Multiversal Swarm

There will be blood

As I turned around I saw the stealth chopper land in the field. I stood ready as I unsheathed my sword. I steadied my breathing and brought air into my lungs. I felt my blood accelerate as I saw my opponent walk out of the back.

A cyborg named Gilfre. We used to be partners but after I'd done what I've done the relationship turned sour. He turned his back on me... Just as I'd done to him. The chopper started up again. As the blades started to spin made a move. Before I could slice a single atom of metal with my sword. Gilfre was in front of me!

He blocked my strike but that didn't stop me! I forced him back into the chopper blades! As they hit him the blades snapped off and I forced him through the hull of the chopper! It exploded around us! I felt the fuel and flames burn my skin but I just kept pushing! We shot from the smoke and I jumped kept driving with my legs! The ground mounded up at his head as I stopped.

Our swords were still pushing against each other!

"Jesse... Why does it have to be this way?!" He spat at me with conviction.

"Because you can't see the bigger picture! Do you think after all this time that I'm an IDIOT?!" I pulled back and slashed at his face! He blocked it with his arm! He kicked me back and I flew backwards and bounced against the ground.

When I looked up I saw him bringing his sword down! I grabbed my sword but before I could dodge he slashed thorough my shoulder! I screamed as blood flew from his sword and my shoulder! Put of a pain reflex I stabbed him right in the stomach! He didn't react! He just punched me in the face and stabbed me in the chest! My eyes widened as the air left my lungs!

"I'm sorry Jesse... I truly am." He said as he ripped the sword out!

The blood poured from my wound on both sides. I coughed and tried to get up but my muscles weren't listening to me. Gilfre turned around and started to walk away. He stopped and turned to me, I saw the tears coming from his only organic eye.

"WE COULD HAVE CHANGED THE WORLD JESSE! WE WOULD HAVE CHANGED THE WORLD!

We had the tools and will to better humanity! To cure hunger and poverty. To fight the fights that people are to afraid to! Why did you throw that away brother!?" He just needed another push.

"Be... Because the wor...ld isn't... Your t-toy..." I struggled to say the words but when I did...

"Gil?" I said weakly. I saw him look up at the sky. He turned around again and slowly walked away.

"Gil?.... Gil?" It was all I could say. I coughed again and a massive amount of blood came out. I struggled to breathe. I gasped for air.

"Gggguiuillll" I stammered as painic finally set in. I saw a light and a darkness envelope my vision at the same time.... Mixing into a sweet oblivion.

I saw the start. A war had broken put in the eastern part of south America. Rio was decimated by an invading alien force. Rio was ground zero for the invasion. Since then the world has exploded into a frenzy of politically motivated war front's. By the end of that year there wasn't a country without two separate governments fighting for space and power.

I met gilfre while tackling a squad of drug dealers and prostitute rings. It was nicer then. Freelance work was fun but it didn't pay very well. I actually was pinned down in a firefight. That's when a man that was more machine then human kicked in the wall armed with nothing but a sword. I took the chance to help him.

As I reached the middle of the room I slid under him and popped two guys. I held up my hand and he grabbed it. He swung me around as I fired my rifle around the room! Took out fifteen guys in a few seconds. As I landed on my feet and turned around he had his glowing blue sword to my throat.

After I cracked a bad joke he got the hint that I was there for the same reason he was. He asked me if I worked for the agency. After that the next five years were a blurry mess for the most part. We were a lethal duo. We broke the curse of government and reformed the view of humanity to make them better. In that five years we launched a campaign right into the heart of the alien force. Me and Gilfre went in with thirty men on a stealth spaceship we'd reverse engineered from the alien tech. Me and Gil were the only ones who got back...

Knowing the threat was dealt with we moved back into the agencies teams. We lead the most elite death squad ever assembled. Almost 3,000 confirmed kill between the whole 15 members including us. As time went on I got stronger... Like ridiculously strong.

The agency scientist don't know what to think. I'm around 50 times stronger than the strongest man in world. My healing factor is higher then a usual human.

All my human company were made into cyborgs like Gil. Some more then others but Gils creator had died in Rio two years after gils augmentation. That's when I met the girl that would make me do the worst thing I've ever done...

We'd been dating for three weeks at the time. I knew I wasn't allowed a relationship but...

As we were about to go to bed, three men burst from the front door, closet, and back door at the same time. I fought like a man possessed but they hit me with a tranquilizer...

I woke up to see a nightmare... I saw every kiss, every look, every time we laughed with each other in our short time, melt away as her body burned down with the house around me... I screamed and broke through my binds. I grabbed her and carried her into the cold snow outside our house. I knew she was long gone. They'd slit her throat for setting fire to my House. I held her close as I cried. I buried her later that day under her favorite tree.

I leaned against it as I held the shovel. I saw a black wolf creep from the treeline across the clearing. I watched as it crept closer to me. I though he'd stop but instead it walked right up to me.

I locked eyes with it. It's clear blue right eye contrasted the deep brown almost black that was it left eye. I felt something start to die inside me. I dropped to my knees. I stared into the wolf's eyes as I felt that feeling start to burn hotter. Then the wolf... Started crying... His right eye had a clear tear like you'd usually picture, but it's left eye was crying a tear of blood. I wrapped my arms around the wolf as I embraced it in a hug.

"Burn the world" it said in a Deep voice in my head.

"Yes sir..."
