Razor: A New Threat(6)

Division

We sit near the edge of the cliff, regrouping after the surprise attack. I hold my Paton as we sit in our circle. My hands are raw from the slide off I cliff. My left is bandaged. I look at Grant, now seeing he is looking at me. I blush and look away. I smile.

"We need to go down there now while Adam is still weak and healing!" Paul starts to yell.

"Thats not how this works. He will be fully healed by the time he got back here. Regardless of the injury." Charles says.

"Either way we have to attack him, and soon before he continues any other plan that was thought up. We will have to work together and take him out, only to grab the transmitter and kill him permanently." I say and they all look at me. Clark past my shoulder.

"This will be our last strike on Adam. Either he dies or we do." Grant says, staring at the ground.

"We aren't in the best place to fight at the moment." Paul says.

"We have no other choice!" I yell at him. "This needs to end. Now. By the the end of the night, this will be over. Either way, someone will die. Lets gope it's him."

They stare at me. I look at all of them. We need to end this reign of terror Adam has started. I personally want to put the knife in his chest. We need to do this today. Charles stands.

"I'll scope the compound. I can go in undetected." He says, looking to me for approval.

"Go." I say. Paul looks at me. Charles leaves.

"Thats too risky. He could die." He says to me

"He knew the risks, that's why he volunteered." I say back.

"This is too risky!" He tells. I stand and so does he.

"If you don't want to end this shit, then get the he'll put of my way! If you aren't helping me, you are helping him!" I yell pointing towards the compound. "This has been a game from the start and this is out last move!" I yell at him.

"The only way not to lose is to not play at all!" He shouts back.

"Thats not an option! We are trapped here! You were the one to figure that out! Do how can you not realize it's either we fight or we die?!" I yell back.

"But if we fight, we will die!" He shouts.

"I thought you were an Elite! Not some wimp who won't fight for a good cause!" I yell. He raises his hand but his entire body goes flying through the woods. Grant is now standing. He walks up to me and grand hands. He looks at me and I look back. He just hurt his friend to protect me. Why me?

"Damn it Grant!" Paul yells rising from the ground. Blood leaks from his forehead and nose. He reaches for his gun, but Grant makes it fly into fly the forest. He walks forward and grabs Paul by the collar of his shirt, lifting him into the air, slamming him on a tree.

"Don't touch her!" He screams in his face. "Or I will make sure your death is unpleasant." He says and Paul grabs his shoulder. They disappear. I look around but I don't see them, until I look up. I see the two falling towards me. Grant shoves him away an Paul goes flying. Grant holds out his hands towards th ground to slow his fall. He makes it to the ground safely and walks towards me. Paul arrived behind him and throws him away from my path. He teleports behind me, grabbing me, and placing a gun to my head.

"End this Grant!" He yells as Grant rises to his feet. I have hands on the arm that is holding my around my neck. Grant holds out his hand Paul cocks the gun. Grant looks at me and not back.

"No." He says and I shock Paul. He backs away. I spin the Paton into the staff and knock him to the ground. I grab his gun and point it to his head.

"Choose. Help us or be against us." I tell him. He looks at me with hateful eyes. He looks at Grant behind me. "Choose!" I yell. He gets to his feet and states at us. I get ready to pull the trigger.

"Help." He says. I lower the gun. "I still don't know why you are hell bent on killing him." He says.

"To end this shit." I say to him. "Since people like you won't." I say to him. Charles returns from the shadows. I walk towards him. "What did you find?"

"What we did to Adam at the cabin has left him weak. It's taking longer this time." He informs us. I place the gun in the small of my back.

"We need to strike now, while he is down." Paul says.

"That's a good idea, but something seems off about this. We have seen him get ripped apart, but still come back minutes later." Grant says. "It could be a trap."

"And we still have to take out whatever is keeping us in this forest and jamming transmutations." Paul says.

"Did you see anything like that?" I ask Charles.

"There was a large machine that I didn't know what it could be doing. That might possibly be it." He explains.

"Ok I'll go with you to disable the machine. Grant, Paul and Clark, you go and try and get Adam's transmitter." I say.

"Why would we give Adam the one person he wants in this forest?" Paul asks.

"More insentive to come out and face us, and he can't die either." I say. Paul looks at me knowing he has no other choice.

"We is the machine located in the the compound?" I ask Charles.

"It's too hard to explain. I'll just have to show you." He tells us.

"Then how are we supposed to know where to go?" Clark asks.

"You walk through th front gate." I say. "You are strong enough to fight off any soldier force there." I say. He nods and we all look at each other. All five of us. Against an immortal. "You ready?"
