Killer X 4 -Anarchy-

Chapter 8- Hell spawn

I had gotten a tip the next couple a days later from Kat that she saw a black van staking out the next suspected bank and thought to myself I would keep it on close stand by their plans we're going to be stopped. I already had my suit on sitting on the top of a building staring down at the city side of maple, we let Emily come along only if she agreed to stay with Kat at HQ for the mission. I was a bit worried after all my shoulder wasn't in the best condition and these crooks had guns that could turn me into a honeycomb but I didn't want to think about it. Because the more I did the more worried I got I would just enjoy the peace and quiet while I had it and who knows hopefully I was wrong and the bank wouldn't be even touched by morning, that is until I heard a gun click behind me. "Who are you? And what are you doing here.." Would echo throughout the night sky I slowly reached for a throwing knife in my pocket as I looked at my armed mystery gunman, but I stopped softly looking at who I know knew had to be from his suit was Mel or as most would know the former RedX  I caught myself choking on my own words as I couldn't even speak I could tell he noticed me as well "oh my god...." would slip out his mouth as he pulled his helmet off, in the very flesh and definitely not dead Carmelo Ortiz stood in front of me he dropped his helmet on the ground "I'll be fucking damned.." he let out again finally my throat opened as I could only say "I knew it...I fucking knew it..." my voice weak and starting to choke no words could truly explain the relief and happiness I was feeling right now both of us wasted no time embracing each other with the tightest bear hug I could ever give/receive,

"Hell of an exit you pulled back at bloodlust." I sniffle lightly, Mel gripped my shoulder "honestly I should have died...but my dad he survived and pulled me out of the wreckage."

"Where have you been all this time?" I slowly begin to feel with anger remembering that I received no call for him or Lyla on the matter
My voice became more firm "wait yeah!" I let out pushing off as I smashed my fist into his shoulder "Where have you been IF YOU WERE ALIVE FOR A WHOLE YEAR?!" Mel slightly chuckled rubbing his arm a bit.

"My father moved us to Florida to start over I guess I tried to get in contact with you but I couldn't, so I came down here to see Lyla then you." Mel explained At first a little salty of the fact he would go to visit her first instead of me the one who yenno DIDNT KNOW IF MANZ WAS ALIVE OR DEAD FOR SURE but I wasn't going to sound ungrateful enough for him even being here was the closure I needed he slowly hung his head "Lyla tried to kill me with some other asshole it was a set up anyway." Mel closed his eyes Lyla trying to kill him? No way I thought "what why?" I asked

"I don't know man.." Mel would pause sighing as he sat on the ledge "I guess maybe the guy was more of her fit left my sorry ass there HQ was around here so I blew it up sky high...killed them both." Mel's voice shifted when he said it almost like hesitation or doubt I sighed sitting down next to him "damn I'm sorry bro.." I let out with a defeated exhale but it crossed my mind Lyla had a healing factor "Wait doesn't Lyla like not die?" I asked

"That's what I thought I dunno, I jammed my knife in her and launched off the building even if she didn't die Lyla knows better than to get under my skin ever again." Mel would rub his face as we looked out at the city "Oh I met new people while in Florida brother."

"Oh yeah?" I lightly smiled Mel gave a firm nod
"Some chick named Masmai and a dude named kayuke..good people." He nodded once more

"I'm glad brother I just still can't believe you're actually here in front of me." I felt like any minute my alarm clock would wake up but it was actually him Mel chuckled "makes two of us." He looked back at the city "how's Emily and Kat?" He let out

"Kats been absent for a while ..working twice as hard since you saw her barely knows what air means." I let out I heard beeps to unmute my com I quickly unmuted to Kats' voice "I CAN HEAR YOU!" She exclaimed I muted her back before it got worst and looked at Mel once more "and Emily..."I let out softly smiling "she's doing great..." I softly chuckled he placed his arm on my shoulder "I'm glad..they're good people too."
