If I Went Somewhere Else

Blue Gem| The Predator. Part 9

"What the-What are YOU doing here?? And why are you so small now??" Sky asks.

"Who is this?" Fugi asked her.

"He's the guy who wants me dead." She told the Predator.

Fugi growled viciously and pulled the human towards himself in a protective hug, for he knew it was going to get ugly soon. Lockdown then put his gun away, looking in between them.

"To answer your question, I am significantly smaller due to the universal travel. It affects myself differently. I'll manage to kill you at some time, but not now. I am only here to examine your progress, seeing that you have gained an ally." The mech looked at Fugi.

"Good, because you would have to deal with me otherwise." Fugi growled.

"You wouldn't even considered a problem..." Lockdown said.

Little did they know the Mega Predator was cloaked and approaching fast. Sky suddenly grew very panicked and clung to Fugi as she began to look around frantically, catching his attention. But then she looked behind the bounty hunter, seeing moonlight reflect off parts of the camouflage. The Mega Predator decloaked behind the mech and he hadn't noticed yet.

"We may not be a problem to you, but HE is!" She pointed to the beast behind him.

Before Lockdown could turn around, the Predator shoved him out of the way like he was simply a child. Fugi immediately went into guard mode as the Assassin looked in our direction next, standing tall at his 11 foot height. Both his fists clenched. In other words, he looks pissed and ready to rip Fugi apart. I clutch onto Fugi's arm as I don't want to let him go, and the Mega Predator noticed.

He roared and went to attack Fugi, and of course he went to counter attack with his spare wristblades. Assassin swiftly avoided the blades and grabbed Fugi by the throat, the small predator kicking as hard as he could while the Mega Predator lifted him off the ground.

"Put him DOWN!!!" I shouted, afraid for my alien friend.

The Assassin whipped his head towards me, his mandibles wiggling excessively as he growled. I glared daggers at him, showing I was dead serious. He looked in between Fugi and me, he chuckled and threw Fugi as hard as he could into a tree. The same pained yell came from Fugi when the Mega Predator slammed him onto the car, but this time there was his blood. Fugi slammed back first into the tree, there was a splatter of fluorescent green blood from the back of his head. He fell to the ground, still as a statue.

"Oh NO!" I ran up to him.

I kneeled down next to Fugi, shoving him in attempt to wake him up. He wasn't moving. I quickly removed the tubes from his mask and pulled it off, seeing that his eyes were closed and his mandibles still. No...he can't be...He can't be dead!!

"No...no no NO!! Fugi!! Come on, please get up!" I pleaded, tears starting to stream.

No response, not even a twitch. I kept shaking him to get him to open his emerald eyes, but nothing worked. It took me everything I had to keep from completely breaking down, I just lost a friend to death... I wrap my arms around Fugi as tight as I could. From behind, I heard the Mega Predator coming up behind me. A sudden wave of anger washed over me as I felt his presence looming behind me, him kneeling down and I could feel his eyes on me.

"Loute'kale..." He said.

"Get the FUCK away from me, you murderer." I growled and whipped my head to him.

But that only seemed to anger him, he wraps his huge arm around my stomach like Fugi did and lifted me off the ground like I was nothing. I yelled angrily and elbowed him with all my strength square in the chest, but that did nothing at all. He looked me dead in the eye.
