Heroes

Two Deaths?

When I woke up, I was still on the floor, by the prison. I'd only been out ten minutes, I was told later. I was surviving on willpower and borrowed time.
My chest was burning, and the world was black and white. I saw Reggie taking on both Marcus and The Overlord. He was holding his own, the legend!
I crawled along the ground, towards my gun. I heard faint gunfire in the distance. The guards were fighting the LR unit, it seemed. Good on them!
Aria was stood, facing the Overlord. She'd been crying, I thought.
I grabbed my shotgun, and used it to get to my feet. Once I thought I was stable enough, I aimed it at Aria, my arm wobbling.
"Don't.......move." My chest was still burning from her bullet.
"Jun, what are you doing? How....don't you see that The Overlord, he can save us!"
"You're talking crap!"
"Please? Please just join us, you'll see-"
Reggie shouted.
"Help me mate!"
He was pinned down by Marcus, and The Overlord was running towards his nearby gun. Whoever this Overlord was, he was one crafty bastard! I'd shot his right hand off, but he kept going. Was "he" even human? When his hand was blown off, some wired thing fell out too. Maybe a robot? God. I just didn't know!
I fired at Marcus. His arm went flying off, blood spraying from it. He squealed in pain, and Reggie smacked him right in the chin, sending him backwards. I walked over to Marcus, and shot him in the chest.
"You stupid, stupid.....kid. You've ruined everything!" Marcus shouted with his dying breath.
"Fuck you! Rivio's dead because of you!"
Before he could say another word, my shotgun shells knocked his head clean off of his body. I didn't have any time to think, because The Overlord had grabbed me. Reggie was on the floor winded.
"Damn it! Marcus is dead!" The masked man screamed as we fought.
"Don't worry, you'll join him soon!"
Reggie grabbed The Overlord by his throat and slammed him into the ground. Aria fired at Reggie, who took the bullet in the shoulder. He winced, before carrying on his fight.
I grabbed Aria's gun, and we fought. She gained the upper hand, and shot me in the leg. As I fell, I snatched the gun! I fired at The Overlord, and the armour covering his shoulder fell off, revealing a white-tanned skin. So he wasn't a robot.
Aria kicked at my injured leg, and I collapsed. My chest was hurting again, and now my leg was. I thought I'd bleed to death.
Reggie had picked up The Overlord and threw him at Aria. She and him both collapsed, and Reggie helped me to my feet.
"Don't fucking die on me now, mate! Still got some backs to break!"
"Too.....damn right."
I hobbled over and picked up my shotgun. I pointed it at The Overlord. Aria, whatever happened to her, didn't need to die!
"Wait!" The masked man boomed in his deep voice.
He then took off his mask.
The next few minutes that followed were filled with death and destruction.
