He watched as a figure with a rifle towered over Garfield. The figure was thin with short brown hair and a large blue and black stripe across its face. The man watching had brown hair an an odd blue and red suit on with a mask. He crouched behind a table with a knife held tightly in his hand.
What do they want with Garfield? Argh! Nevermind that now, we have a job to finish. He thought and quietly rushed behind the figure. He was close to stabbing it but the figure quickly dodged his attack by holding the man's arm as if it knew he what was going to happen. The figure turned and twisted the man's arm causing him to drop the knife. Not that he needed it.
He looks like one of those characters in that comic book I stole from X's office. His mask can't hide the bruises, he must be the man who told Garfield I was here. Maybe he can stop me. Nibiru thought hopefully. With one punch from the man she was sent flying into a wall. The man tried to help Garfield up but as fast as she flew she was back on her feet. She ran and tackled Garfield, wrapping her hands around his neck. He struggled for air as Nibiru fought her own hands for dominance.
A voice spoke calmly as a knife was held to her throat. The hand holding the knife was covered in stitches meaning this was a different person from the one before.
"Interesting.... green blood." The voice spoke and began forcing her to her feet.
Green blood? That's never happened before. She thought.
"How I'd love to cut you open to have a closer look." He smirked and held the knife closer.
Do it! Her head screamed.
"Easy Stitches, we can't kill him yet. We need answers." The other boy smiled making Stitches let go. Nibiru's body took this opportunity to grab her gun she fired a warning shot which was surprising since her body was contempt with getting rid of any obstacle. The man in blue and red charged at her. The room slowed to a crawl as Nibiru was given a choice.
At some point you'll have to make decisions for yourself. So go on... three people, one is your mission and the other two are in the way, who do you shoot?" He asked in her head where a part of him resides.
There's four people. Her mind raced as she turned the gun and shot her stomach taking the opportunity of X lossening his grip on her. Her body fell to the floor as X screamed in her head, filling her brain with nothing but agony as he was forced to release his grip over her. Pain forced itself through her body. Green blood pooled around her pale figure. The man with Stitches was told to help Garfield escape while the other ran to Nibiru's side.
"An ambulance is on the way." He said and applied pressure to her wound.
"No, this... I want this. I.. have to d-die. He'll be back for me." She spoke hoarsely still barely unable to talk. She allowed herself to fall unconscious, though the man in red and blue didn't make it easy for her.
"No, stay with me. We can help." He took notice of a mark on her flesh as ambulance sirens were heard from outside. The man picked up the lifeless body covered in green blood an brought Nibiru to the ambulance.
