The Apocalypse [The Original]

Ch. 7

When he woke up, Jason looked around. Some kids were standing over him.

"Ow." He rubbed his head and stood up. "Uh... Wave?" He paused. "Wave!" He took off out the door and ran to the ship. It was on fire. "Wave!" He ran right up to it. "Ah." It was really hot. He ran throughout the entire ship trying to find Wave or Jet.
"Jason!"
He turned around. "Blaze?"
"Yeah?" He paused and looked down. "She isn't here."
"What? Well, where is she?"
He looked up at the sky. "Mekka has her."
Blaze looked up, too. Mekkaku's ship was hovering 20ft in the air.
"Has he been there this whole time?"
"Yeah."
"Why?" Blaze asked.
"Because... he's waiting for me. He wants me to come rescue her."
"Are you?"
He paused and looked at Blaze. "Yes."

"Ugh. Let me go!" Wave yelled. She was tied up to a pole.
"Shut up!" Mekkaku yelled. He walked towards her and grabbed her neck. "If you cooperate, you may be alive when, or if, Jason comes."
"He'll come. I know Jason. He wouldn't leave me."
"Well, isn't that sweet. Maybe I'll let him live and kill you instead. The loss of a loved one is much more painful."
"He'll win. I know he will."
He let go of her and punched her in the stomach.
"Agh. Ohh!"
"What's the matter? Can't breathe?"
"He'll... kill you."
He raised his fist again when there was a loud boom. He lowered his fist and quickly turned around.
"Leave her alone, Mekk!"
"Jason! How are you?"
"Let her go!"
"Oh, I'll let her go. Right after you beat me."
"Why don't you get some of your robots and make it a fair fight?"
"As you wish."
Seven robots appeared, followed by Metal Sonic.
"Metal? Come on, Mekk."
"What's the matter, Jason? Afraid?"
"No."
"Well, then. Let's see what you've got."
The robots gathered around Jason. Metal Sonic walked towards him.
"Well, Jason... looks like you are outnumbered."
"That won't stop me."
He threw a punch and Metal Sonic grabbed his wrist.
"Is that all you got?"
"No. Not by a long shot."
Jason raised his other hand and slammed it on the ground. He created a shockwave that knocked the robots back. The robots crashed through the front window of the ship. Metal Sonic tumbled towards the broken window. At the last moment, he grabbed onto the side. He dug his claws deep into the metal. Mekkaku bent down and dug his claws into the floor. Every object not bolted to the ship flew out the window. Jason was being sucked out, too. He grabbed onto Metal Sonic's legs.
"Get off!"
"Why? So I can fall to my death!"
"Yes."
Metal Sonic took his free hand and swung at Jason. He grabbed Metal's arm and swung back onto the ship.
"I've got the high ground now, Metal!"
"Aren't you forgetting something?"
"What?"
Metal Sonic activated his jetpack. He let go of the ship and flew at Jason. Jason ducked and Metal crashed into the wall behind him. Metal turned around and ran at Jason. As Metal approached, Jason picked up a pole and swung at Metal. Metal Sonic crashed through a wall and flew off the ship.
"Well, that takes care of Metal."
"Jason! Look out!"
He turned around. Mekkaku threw a punch. Jason grabbed his arm. He knew if he wasn't anchored to something, he'd fall off the ship.
"Why are you holding on, Jason. Won't you survive a 20 foot fall?"
"Yeah."
"Then why?
"Because... If I fall off... there's no way I can save Wave."
"Wave, Wave, Wave. It's all about her, isn't it?"
Jason didn't say anything. He just looked at Mekka.
"Oh. You love her, don't you?"
Jason was starting to get mad.
"Am I making you angry? No?"
Mekka took Jason by the neck and threw him out of the window.
"How about now?!"
Jason fell to the ground. Twenty feet later, he hit the ground.
"Ow. Oh. Oh, that hurt."
"Jason." Blaze came running over. "Jason, are you okay?"
"Ah. I've been better."
"Where's Wave?"
Jason stood up. He looked at a sign next to him and punched it hard.
"Jason, it's okay. We'll get her back."
"No. No it's not okay! Who knows what he's doing to her right now?!"
"Jason." Blaze said as she put her hand on his shoulder. "We will get her back."
"Yeah. You're right."
"Blaze! Jason!" Silver came running up to them.
"What's wrong, Silver?"
"It's Mekka's ship."
"What about it?"
"It's crashing."
"What? Oh my god. Wave!"

"Jason! You're dead!" Mekkaku yelled.
"We'll both be dead if you don't do something, Mekk." said Wave.
"What do you mean 'we'?"
Mekkaku ran toward the broken window and jumped out.
"Oh, no. Jason," she said to herself. "Where are you?"

"Okay. The ship will crash in about, what, 15 minutes?" Jason guessed.
"I guess. It is pretty high in the sky still. What do you think, Silver?"
"I'd say 10 minutes."
"10 minutes?"
"Jason, look. The ship's picking up speed."
"No. I'm going in there."
"How? You can't even fly."
"Maybe not, Silver. But what's one thing we have that nobody else has?"
Silver thought for a second before answering. "Psychokinesis."
"Exactly."

"Jason!" Wave yelled. The ship was starting to catch on fire. Pieces of the ship fell off and were getting sucked out of the window. A piece of debris fell off of one of the control panels and hit the chains that were holding Wave to the pole. The chain broke and she fell to the floor. She grabbed her wrists. They were sore from being chained up.
"Yes!" she whispered to herself.
She stood up and turned around. Debris was everywhere. She must've dodged about several pieces of debris as she made her way into a corridor that led out from the control room. She continued running down the corridor, slamming into the walls as the ship was falling apart. She tripped and fell. When she looked up, she spotted a sign that read, "Escape Pods."
"Jason, look!" Silver yelled. Jason looked up. The ship was completely covered in flames now. Jason took the piece of wood he ripped off from a bench in the school's front yard. He stepped on it and used his psychokenesis powers to use the bench piece as an air board. The bench piece glowed white and lifted off the ground.
"Wish me luck." he said as he flew off towards the ship.
He was about 10 feet away when it exploded. The shock wave from the explosion almost made Jason fall off the "board". Debris was flying everywhere. Jason held up his arms to block the flaming debris.
"Wave!" Jason yelled as he flew towards the spot where the ship used to be. He circled around it a few times and then landed. He jumped off the board and landed on the ground. He ran towards the burning wreckage, hoping to find any signs of life.
"Wave!" He threw rubble out of the way. Silver and Blaze came running over. "Oh, no." Jason was getting worried.
"Jason! Is she okay?" Blaze started to ask. Jason cut her off.
"I don't know."
