An Immoral Beginning

XIII:Strong While Weak

I'm still awake...I'm slowly regaining consciousness, holy shit...they are melting away...their weakness was the sun...I struggle to even turn my head, the building...it's in flames, was this disease that relied on transmissions to broadcast the infection..

"W-we're g-going to m-make it.." I say while struggling to crawl, I need to find the others, before it's too late.. "Penelope...j-John...Francisco...all of you.." I say while standing up and then forcing whatever energy I have left to move..my grip on the katana's loose but with all my power, I grip it enough to stay in my hands.

"P-Penelope..John...franscis..br-bra..ndo.." I say to myself while stuttering, I'm so tired..I'm worn out..but I move to protect them all! John, Brando, Gerald, Francisco and Penelope too.."I'll....protect them..until I die.." I see Penelope's body..I can't leave her..like this.. "P-Penelope.."

I check up on her, still unconscious, I think I have a way..

"Up, up now.." I say while getting her over my shoulder, I could barely carry her...I need to find j-John...I need to find him...I see someone.. John..

"J-John.." I collapsed onto the ground, I hope Penelope isn't hurt...I hope John survived the attack.. is that a person near John?...I think they're...gonna hurt him! I can't let John...die not now...not ever..

"A survivor, how unfortunate however it seems that your down for the count so I'll just make this easy and-"

"YAAAA!"

"Thud!"

I tackled the bastard...now...it's time to..

"Wham!

"Ah!" I winced in pain.

"Jesus kid, you're weak as hell, that's probably from the artificial virus we transmitted."

"I-I won't let you hurt t-them.."

"Kid, if I let you three live then the secrets spilled, nearly all of this state's population is gone. You gonna have to die to ke-"

"Wham!"

I punched him in the face, I'm going to protect them...this bastard must be someone who knew about this experiment, I'm gonna beat him...till he stops moving..

"Fine, have it your way."

"Wham!"

"Argh! Damn y-"

"Wham!"

I knocked into the ground, this can't be...they're still vulnerable..

"Any last wor-"

"Wham!" I grabbed his shirt and gave him a headbutt with all my power.

"Ah! You cocky little shit!"

"I'm..not gonna to let you pass.."

I'm going to defend them until the others come..

"You know you're really a fool because I have a-"

"Damn you!"

I grabbed his gun, we began struggling to yank the gun outta the other's hands.

"Dammit kid! Get off!"

"Bang!"

"Uggghh! Damn you, you little shit!"

"Wham!"

I shot the gun in his chest, the bastard must have a bulletproof vest. I'm still here...and I failed to shoot him..

"Now, it's your time to-"
