Hunted

The end

Authors Note:

I haven't updated in a while... So this is the end... I haven't used Wattpad in a while for a lot of reasons the two main ones being that I haven't had the time and mostly just because it became boring... I have now moved on to making videos on youtube (My channel name is Kurgan Media PLUG PLUG PLUG)...

I have therfore decided to upload everything I have ever done from story ideas to random shit and chapter overviews... I hope you enjoy them...

Goodbye.

Idrick rounded the corner, her large rifle jammed into Tau Jins back. Alarms blared and the clatter of feet drew nearer.

They came to a large, metal door. Yellow hazard signs bared two words. Engine Room. Idrick pointed the gun at his head and pointed at the control panel across from it. "Open it before I blow your fuckimg head off." she said. Her voice had become detatched; one that didn't care much for anything.

Behind her, two soldiers turned the corner she had just come through. Idrick turned, her lightning fast reflexes assisting her in firing first. Two bursts were fired and two dead bodies hit the floor, their blood spurting upwards and covering the walls and floor.

Tau Jin took one look at this before stepping forwards to activate the door. Another group of soldiers turned at the other side of corridor. Idrick turned, spraying jer rifle on full auto as she did so. The entire corridor was filled with a wall of bullets raining down on the defenceless guards.

The door slid open, revealing the behemoth that lay inside.

A large tube, flashing lights illuminating each end. Thin pipes snaking from the main body... Allowing the heart to pump.

Idrick pushed Tau Jin forward, his face a mask of both horror and fear. She snarled at him, before pulling the pistol from her belt and shooting him in the thigh. "That's for Livik..." she said monotonously. She stepped towards the large console that stood by the far wall.

Blinking lights... Large red buttons... A glass covered sequence labelled 'Do Not Touch'... Her hand felt that one for a second... She savoured the moment.

She heard more boots running. She turned around, her gun pointed at the gaping door.

A single man rounded the corner, his face the same as Tau Jins, one consisting of horror and fear. Idrick fired a single shot causing his head to explode like a melon.

Thuds began to echo through the station as it's escape pods were launched.

She turned back to the controls and lifted up the glass cage. When she had done that, one of the many buttons that had previosly been encased lit up with a glowing red. The glow bathed the entire room red and caused her to shut her eyes.

She heard Tau Jin groan behind her... She heard her own heart beat... She could hear the heart beats of the soldiers running to try and prevent her from doing what she was about to do: the ultimate act... Her final act.

Idrick pressed the button, causing the entire station to shake. She adjusted her stance to prevent herself from stumbling. A loud voice sounded on the intercom. "Self destruct sequence initiated. Two minutes to self destruct." it read.

Idrick walked over to Tau Jin. His face was one of agony. His eyes locked with hers... And she pointed her rifle at his head. "Time to finish the job." she stated. Her voice contained all the emotional empathy of the artificial voice over counting down to her death.

He ooened his mouth to protest and only succeeded in making a slight noise before his head was blown to smithereens by ten lead rounds.

Idrick reloaded her weapon. Slotting the new magazine in with a satisfying clack. Ten soldiers appeared at the door.

"Self destruct in one point five seconds."

Idrick fired, creating tiny explosions of blood on each soldiers uniform. O e soldier however, managed to fire a short burst which hit Idrick in the lower body.

She was thrown against the far wall, her head nodding to one side whilst she struggled to comprehend what had happened.

Idrick could see the gun... She could see the soldiers flooding the room... She could see them close in on her, their guns pointed at her face... She heard the voice say "Self destruct in thirty seconds."

Her vision began to darken.

She saw one of them reach the console... Her hand reaching out pressing buttons... Ten... She was almost there... Nine... One more button... Eight... Idrick launched herself across the room, the pain causing her to feel as if she was being ripped apart inside...

She hit the soldier just as she was about to press it, causing her to yell out... Seven... Idrick punched thr soldier in the face, causing it to fall inwards with a sickening crunch... Six... The second punch produced a large incision in the face, teeth and muscle now visible... Five...

Her comrades were now leaning for the console, to press the final button... Idrick grabbed the soldiers carcass and swung it around like a mace. The soldiers backed away with suprise before reattempting their attack... Four... Another burst from a rifle echoed through the chamber, tearing into Idricks back, sending her crashing into the console. Incidently, one of the bullets hit the console, sending sparks flying for about half a meter...

Three... Idrick couldn't focus... Her hands ached, they were sticky with a substance she didn't recognise... Two...

Idrick gave one last breath before the conter reached one.

Zero.

The station exploded, fragments o f the once mighty home sent into orbit around the dying planet.

After the end of the civil war, things didn't go well for humanity either... With no work, the remenants of society crumbled, leaving the streets open for the gangs that now controlled the world.

The Earth lies in space. A husk. A dead place that no one would ever visit.
