Cybrose Wars

A tragic truth

Hey he's waking up! I hear those words as i regain consciousness noticing i'm shirtless and have a scar across my gut. Ugh where am i what happened?

You're back at base and that's what we want to know, Rose said as she helped me up. Well i was fighting our mystery man and last i remember we stabbed each other...and that's when i passed out, oh also he said his name was King.

So King that's really his name? Heh pretentious prick, Duke said with a grin. Yeah so im guessing you guys found me was he there too? No but there was a trail of blood leading out so he was there but didn't pass out like you, that's not fair he should of fell unconscious too! I said out of annoyance from what Rose said.

Enough of this how long has it been? Three days we didn't know if you were going to make it, as Rose replied i wondered why King didn't kill me if he had the perfect opportunity.

We've got a situation all able fighters report in, hearing that cuts our conversation short as we headed to the war room. Will's little show has uped the activity of Chaos as shown by this attack on a large protection camp, i need you two to go there and try to defend it.

What about me? I say hearing that i'm not included in this mission. You're injured we can't risk further injury, bullcrap i'm fine! I say arguing with a probably smart idea. You're staying here and that's final, Fine i say knowing i have no choice what Grey says goes. Stay safe you two and if you see King kick his sorry ass for me, Don't worry we will Duke says as they walk out giving me a thumbs up.

An hour has passed sense they left and i'm just sitting in my room staring at the ceiling thinking, why spare me when he tried so hard to kill me? My thoughts were once again interrupted but this time by captain Grey himself. I think it's time you know more about your enemy, hearing that i sit up ready to listen.

The man you fought King was the team member that left, but the full reason he left and why he feels no pain is that he tested with cybrose injecting it into his body. At first it was good it grew the body to levels beyond human limits, but that's when it started to corrupt him.

He lost feeling of any emotion, he started to become more violent and less humane. During missions he would do unnecessarily dangerous things without a care for anyone, which nearly got the rest of the team killed several times.

After confronting and stopping him from further experiments he went rouge. This scar on my face was from him, after lashing at me the team managed to subdue him but he later escaped from our control.

I feared he joined chaos and my fears have came true but it's even worse then i imagined, There he was free to experiment as much as he wanted which i bet is why he acts heartless and claims to be immune to pain.

That fool he was the best soldier i'd ever seen and then he did that it's truly tragic...well that's the important parts of it, don't need to bore you with the small details. So i hope that helps you with whatever you may be thinking. Thank you that helped alot, but if i could ask can you tell me about yourself and your past?

If you care to listen to an old mans rambling then sure, i guess i haven't told any of you much about me. Well back when i was younger i was a privateer, after years of service i was promoted several times till i became a general. Of corse it didn't last do to the fact i went against my orders on multiple occasions, but when it means the mission or your men sometimes you have no choice.

 So eventually they discharged me and i went on to be called upon by a small military group, so before this all started i was at the time a general of a small task force, we were tasked with reconnaissance, sabotage ect.

 The unit was a close knit team everyone had each others back especially one soldier, you probably won't believe this but it was King. See he used to be what he called the shield of the team, always looking out for the others and protected them no matter the cost to himself.

 After Chaos rose like they did i knew we had to fight back so i went into hiding taking King with me, slowly we gained followers to appose Chaos. Then a year later you came alone, angered, confused and willfull. I knew that day you'd help change our fates and the rest is history.

 Thank you for sharing that, and do you really think i can change fate? I ask doubting his claim of me. Of corse i've seen many fighters and you have just what makes a soldier the best he can be. Really? If you really say so then i believe you and i'll do my best to prove it. Good, he says with a smile as he heads out.

 Several hours have gone by since Duke and Rose left and with no word i felt something bad had happened, and my feelings were proven right as just minutes after we got word that they've been captured and i'm the only one that can save them.

You know what to do, Grey says as i put my suit on. Yes...yes i do It's showtime, i say as i put my visor down and prepare for a different kind of rescue mission.
