3:30 am Afghanistan
The squad deployed in a stealth chopper heading east towards a small local group trying to rule through the drug and slave trade. I snuck in before ehand and hid myself with a cloak. I hid in the back of a truck. A few women noticed I wasn't one of them but they didn't rat me out because I knocked them unconscious.
3:45
The team enters compound and slaughters everyone that resists. As I heard the door to the truck open I pressed my switch.
3:46
A massive emp went off mixed with 20 pounds of tannerite! The entire team was either heavily damaged, fatally wounded, or in bits and pieces. As the fire rained down on us as I stepped from the back of the ruined truck.
Emp for their cybernetic enhancements, tannerite for those durable bodies. Normally they'd shrug that off, But that's what the emp works for. I counted five still able to move. The others are already goners.
With a swift slice I took off two of their heads before our third in command stopped my blade with his only remaining part of his right arm! He was reaching out so his left arm is gone but his other arm is only missing his hand.
"Jesse?! Wh-what? Why-" I headbutt him and sliced his arm completely off!
I spun around and sent a shock wave with my sword with three quick slashes! The three waves sliced him at the neck, stomach, and right down the middle! He fell into clumps at my feet. Burning oil, and burning flesh filled the air. Two left.... The rookies.
I wasn't going to enjoy this. These kids were twins. Barely got their cybernetics.... But life's not fair.
I grabbed Jake by the neck and slammed him into the ground! He gasped for air as I crushed his wind pipe! Sparks and blood flew from his neck as I let go. He squirmed on the ground making a gagging sound. Logan screamed at me.
He punched me. He was the luckiest one of us all. He hadn't got any of the emp, any of the tannerite. Why was he spared? Typical Logan, probably saw an old woman struggling and with his superior strength thought he'd give his aid. Damn kid. Don't make this harder then it already is.
"Just give it a REST!" I shouted giving him an uppercut to the stomach! I saw his lights almost go out when I did... He flew back and landed on his face. He held his stomach in agony.
"Why would yo-" NO!
"WHY?! YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY?!" My vision went red as I lost my mind!
I picked him up by the neck and the waist! I hurled him into the ground, head first! He flopped over and gave a pitiful punch to my face! I wiped the blood from my nose.
"Really?"
Both both hands I beat him senseless. Left then a right! I threw him behind me and he slammed into a series of tents and a building. The building collapsed on top of him as I heard him groan. I rushed over and gave a kick to the rubble! The rubble exploded backwards and Logan bounced across the sand as I slowly walked over him.
He struggled to pick himself up. Poor kid didn't get that I was just stronger. At full power he couldn't hope to match me. He got to his feet and a mix of blood and oil covered him. He's was beaten... But not dead.
"You might beat us but Gilfre will-" I stood behind him now... Blade drawn, and dripping with blood and oil.
Logan's head flew through the air and came to land right at my feet and slowly bounce away.
4:30 pm eastern united States, NYC agency headquarters.
I walked up to the building right next to HQ. I'd been here for about ten minutes. Any second now he'll show up and-
"Jesse." A familiar voice said behind me.
"Gil." I said not turning around. He was right behind me.
"Jesse... What the hell is going on. You go AWOL and then you pop back up on our scanners and our entire squad gets taken out in one go. Do you know how unlikely that is Jesse!? No one man could know something that all those men had a weakness for. The emp format used was only used by THREE PEOPLE EVER! Me, my Creator.... And YOU!"
"Gil... I-" he started getting angry.
"WHAT THE FUCK JESSE?! WHAT DO YOU POSSIBLY WISH TO ACCOMPLISH?! WE... W-WE'RE BROTHERS!" I could tell he was going through a breakdown. Don't blame him. I was about to rip his world a FUCKING sundre!
"And I don't want to think that you show up here of all places... When every member of the board is in their debating what to do with you. Please tell me that's a coincidence Jesse..." We both were silent now.
"Gil. I need to ask you something." I heard him take a deep breath.
"Okay Jesse... What is it?"
"When I told you about my past..."
"What past?" Ahh he doesn't remember immediately... Good.
"The ones I've already lived and left behind... The other memories I have... Of places I've been." I kept staring at the HQ building.
"Oh yeah I remember now. You thought you hoped universes or something like that."
"What did you think when I told you that story?" I said losing the emotion in my voice.
"What do you mea-"
"WHAT DID YOU THINK WHEN I TOLD YOU THAT STORY?!" I screamed!
He was silent for a moment.
"The truth is I felt... Sorry for you." He said.
The words set in deep. Wrong answer...
I turned around finally. He only had a split second to see the tears coming from my eyes. As we came around my suspicion was true... He had his sword at the back of my neck. As I came around I cut the wire to the deadmans wire on the trigger vest!
Before either rof us could react, the building behind us, the agency headquarters, the group responsible for UNITING humanity... Exploded.
