Revolution

Chapter 10

Jessica  was sure that it was neither nights guard nor reapers with Reyes. As they drove with a crack in windshield and blood dripping through the sides, Jessica looked back and checked Roy's pulse. He was holding up but Erica looked terrified as she drove staring ahead without even blinking. Jessica knew if Tony didn't stay to hold them back, they wouldn't make it and she kept asking :”where the hell is James?”

Tony was excellent with his tentacles. He cut down two, pierced another into his stomach and held him up high to strike fear to the rest. He knew he was outnumbered so being smart might help him survive, therefore he stayed calm and waited for them to make a move. They signaled each other and one of them jumped forward to attack, he dashed towards Tony. His tentacles were enormous with spikes, Tony has never seen something like this before which made him loose focus and before he knew it, something pulled his leg and he was on the ground with four reapers making sure he stayed down. While the spikes held his leg another stood above Tony's chest looking down at him. He did not have any tentacles but Tony was sure he saw something before. Tony felt his ribs cracking. He didn't know what was going on, as he screamed with pain he finally noticed blood floating in mid air. It took a while for him to realize it's not floating but was dripping off something. The reaper who stood before him can camouflage his tentacles. These guys were no ordinary reapers, Tony thought to himself as he realized he might die any minute.

They reached their hideout. Jessica made sure they were not followed, took Reyes out and dragged him up to the room while Erica helped Roy. Rob was doing something with chemicals as they came in. He was waiting for everyone to reach so that he could convey his good news but this wasn't the right time. They laid Roy on the couch and tended to his wounds. Rob ran to his table, took out a syringe filled with yellow solution and injected Roy and asked Jessica where James and Tony were. Before Jessica could respond, he injected Reyes with Epinephrine, Reyes jumped up scared to find himself surrounded by four strangers.

Two huge tentacles came right towards the reapers above Tony with a loud roar. Spikes, camouflage and another jumped to the side as the fourth took out his tentacles. He blocked the huge tentacles without even moving an inch. This guy had a completely different kind. His had patterns all over them and they looked extra hard. It was as if they were made of metals. James never gave up without putting up a fight. His legs were bleeding as he tried to move the metal from Tony. Tony had the best healing factor which also makes him tired fast. Tony stood by James observing the four. All had special tentacles and they had zero chance of beating them.

James kept attacking the metal without giving him an opening. Tony covered his back but there was not much use. They were surrounded from all four sides and the fourth guy finally took out him tentacles.

Roy started having seizures, was shivering and spitting blood. Jessica held Rob up screaming what did he gave him. Roy started to bleed from his nose and seizure started to get worse. Jessica kept screaming, took out her tentacles and aimed for his throat. Reyes stood startled as he looked through Rob's desk and saw the serum. He took the test tube asking Rob : ”How do you know about this?”
