Chapter 5 - Death (2/2)
”Not here! I won't fall here just yet! Aaarrggg!!” Cale shouted at the top of his lungs like an injured dragon. He stood up with great difficulty and chased after his squad, but before he can take another step forward, he felt the ground tremble. He turned his head back and saw something that made him smile hopelessly.
Cale looked at the darkening sky, he saw flashes of lightning from time to time . Heavy rain poured and drenched his injured body wet.
”The heavens doesn't want me to live anymore. Fuck you! I will die a glorious death and even that metalloid can't stop me here! Phantom Wolf Squad, escape from here! Allow your captain to give you some time to escape! Continue living my brothers!” His angry roar resonated in the grasslands.
His squad which was now faraway from him, heard his shout over the radio. They all felt sad and wished that they could die with their captain in battle, but his orders were like laws to them, they dare not disobey him.
They swiftly got inside the hummer and drove out of the Ndebele border. All of them were suppressing their tears to fall as they clenched their fists in extreme sadness.
A middle age man with a long Z-Steel sword on his back was holding a flashdrive gently like it was a fragile little jade. While holding back his tears, he said to the rest of the squad ”Let's continue living! That was his final order. We must hold unto his words until we breathe our last.”
The men can no longer hold back their tears, and they all sobbed like little kids who lost their father.
In the grasslands of Ndebele Village, a bloodstained man was tightly clutching his scary looking weapon and used it to remain standing. He smiled brightly which was a stark contrast to his current plight.
He was now standing on where Saber planted the enhanched bombs. His goal was to lure 'The Vanquisher' and die together with it. Although the bombs placed down below were not strong enough to destroy The Vanquisher, but he still had one last item that can multiply the strength of the explosion.
”You stupid metal scrap! I, your granddaddy Cale is here to give you good ol' fashioned ass whooping!” Cale taunted before spitting another mouthful of fresh blood.
The Vanquisher put away its huge energy gun and pulled a long jade sword on its back. It walked slowly towards Cale, wishing to prolong his agony by making him feel despair.
Cale smiled and turned on his radio, he waited for The Vanquisher to step on where the bombs where located before he pulled out a blue liquid from inside the long barrel of his Blue Dragon.
This blue liquid was the source of energy of his weapon and a personal concoction of Dr. Nicholas himself. This liquid is full of unstable chemicals which will cause a massive explosion at the slight contact with fire.
”Saber, detonate the bomb.” Cale said calmly with a profound smile.
Saber trembled when he heard the order. His heart was in turmoil but he still pressed the button in his shaking hands.
”Boooooooommmm!!”
