y/n = your name
after the awkward confrontation on the roof you were lost of the world's surface for a week.
you were trapped. as stupid as it sounds, you were trapped.
you were locked in a small room which is guarded by like 10 powerful masks which you can't take on your own because, well, they all were strong, big, tall, powerful. and you may be tall and strong, but not that tall, powerful and strong.
so you spent a week figuring out what to do and came to a stupid conclusion.
that conclusion was waiting more and see if you could escape. somehow.
another three days later at 3am on the night, you woke because of banging on the door.
after swiftly grabbing your weapon you snuck to a safe distance from the door.
you positioned yourself so that if someone would burst through the door you would shoot them in the mater of a split second. but that's it. if there was gonna be a rush of enemies you knew you'd be fucked because you didn't have the needed manpower to defeat them.
yes, you are incredibly strong and smart but you have limits. limits that keep you human. limits that are already beyond natural. but to defeat a larger group of masks you'd need to be stronger, faster, more agile, have faster reflexes, think faster.
you'd have to be better, but you're human, not a person whose mind was manipulated by a system that gave you and others supernatural powers.
a system that was doomed not to work.
a system, that was destined to be overthrown and destroyed one day.
but you didn't notice any flaws just yet. somehow it was perfect.
it had no open spaces for you to find and error or a bug to overthrow it and prevent more people from getting brainwashed.
but maybe one day you could overthrow it, but even if you found a way, you'd need a computer anyways because it was electronic. it is a software programmed to change its code from mask to mask. so each mask had their unique code. or at least one different section from another.
not only the abilities and tasks you have, also how it influenced your behaviour, your style, your memories.
if you knew one thing about the masks it is that they delete memory, but in your case, you got a mouthless mask, it sorted your memories out, bringing some kind of structure in that mess of a mind you have.
it was no wonder your mind was a mess. looking back at your past it explains a lot, and your current situation does too.
also the various mental illnesses you suffer from, PTSD, severe depression, night terrors, insomnia, paranoia and even ADD. not ADHD, ADD. you weren't hyperactive, you just had concentration problems which spiced up your sniper missions but made it not as boring to lie and wait for the perfect shot.
even if you had baggage, your broken mental health made you only stronger.
you battled paranoia and won, well, barely but kind of you did. it still haunts you but not as bad as a few years ago when you'd always look back because you were scared someone was following you. now you barely do that because you knew you blend in really good and nobody really notices your presence.
your presence is like a ghost to a lot of people because you blend in really good and people tend to forget your existence which is kind of sad but understandable given that you do nothing to get noticed by people.
i mean, who would if they work what you do for a living?
nobody in their right mind would want to attract attention then.
so you're like a shadow for some. nothing more than a dark silhouette in their field of vision.
it despite that ability to sneak by people and animals, you still were trapped in that room.
dragging your mind out of your endless train of thoughts with no stop or end in sight, you repositioned yourself swiftly and patiently waited for either the door to break down or the knocking to end.
which it was gonna be, you had no ideas until it actually happened. and the outcome wasn't the most fun and easy as you would have liked but where's the fun in trying not to die when a few random overpowered, brainwashed super-humans break down the door to your 'prison'?
well, you screamed in fear. that was the first thing you did.
second thing that happened in the son of the 10 second the masks took o get to you, nobody knows why they were that slow.
you screamed again, this time not just some random vowels, no, this time it was a high-pitched 'FUCKING HELL' and a string of curses that would make a sailor blush in shame and embarrassment.
very colourful and creative you got there with insulting yourself for your unintelligenterer to stay hidden from those masks, but shit happens.
so you did the only reasonable thing you could imagine doing, in hope of not getting killed by 10 different brainwashed individuals with power that went beyond your imagination because why not. why would someone easy to defeat trap you anyways. there wouldn't be a need to delay this even more if there want a big obstacle.
so yes, you did something completely reasonable and logic. something anyone same wouldn't do in that situation.
and since you're neither reasonable, sane nor logical, you did the first thing you thought to save your ass.
jumping out of the window.
and you screamed even more curses while doing so because you were literally falling to your death.
no, seriously. you did jump out of the window, broke the glass, tore your expensive pretty clothing and lost your wonderful sunglasses while doing so.
and now you're just falling and somehow it doesn't stop. the ground is not coming nearer.~1001 words
quick note:
I'm sorry if this is a mess and just ridiculous by now. i don't really now how to continue this while staying reasonable. i will be honest, i've never finished watching the anime and i have no clue how it end or what happens with every individual. so i will just finish this as i like. please don't expect any update soon but i'll try to write at least one more chapter until the end of 2024.
anyways. have a nice day or night.
love ya'll
