172 Antoine Neurosurgical Industries VI : Chong, Sins Of The Pas (2/2)

*BOOOOF!!* *SMASH!**CRASH!**THUD!!*

Another compressed burst of air came out of that cannon of his, if it was anyone else, or rather a more normal human being, then said person would be very much dead by now. I was thrown through steel reinforced guard booth, a guard booth that had stopped bullets when I was hiding behind it was ripped apart like paper, and I got scratched. There was a nasty cut on my face, going down from the side of my left temple, then down over my left eye before stopping on the top of my cheek. It burned, and blood was clouding my vision, not to mention I felt so woozy it was hard to get back on my feet as I stumbled about.

My left arm was dangling uselessly from my side, it was bent at a very awkward angle. And I could see my bones popping out from my flesh. The list of injuries I now had was extensive, and it would take a long ass time before I could heal this on my own, heck the (BEARD) was telling me to seek medical attention as fast as possible.

”I watch the news Kid, that son of yours is the child you gave to Sarah. He should have been my son, but he's yours, the son of a thief, so once I'm done ripping you apart I'll send your skull to him, and every year for each of his birthday I'll be sending a piece of your ripped body, until when he gets to your age and then I'll kill him, slowly and painfully, and there's noth...…”

*BANG!BANG!*

Two electrically charged bullets flew out of the gun in my right hand and smashed into his neck and mouth. Surprising his teeth seemed to be coated with metal, so all the bullet did was smash them apart, while the second punched a hole through his neck. But yet he didn't shake or move, it was as if his body was already dead, and he was incapable of feeling pain.

However even if he didn't feel pain the subtle and involuntary shakes his body was giving let me know that the electrical currents in his body was already causing as much Havoc as I wanted. He looked at me in surprise as he seemed to be loosing control of his body, the electrical currents I sent into his body was already messing with the commands he could give.

*Bang!bang!bang!bang!*

Electricity snaked and danced around my body as i took an eye and punched a hole through his nose. Pretty or not there was no coming back from that, his massive body convulsed but yet he still didn't fall. I ran towards him, and the took a running leap before smashing me knee into his face and latching my right palm on top of his head. He fell back like a sack of potatoes as I made contact with the electrical currents in his body, it would take a lot to bring Chong down, and he would probably kill me before that happens. So I'll do this, I'll take his power and his life along with it. Like a vacuum all of the metal currents within his body began running to the top of his head and straight into my body.

I suddenly found my body shaking along with his, the feeling of taking his ability was such a rush, it was addictive. And unlike when the first time where I had no idea what was happening, I could actually get to enjoy the entire feeling. I could bear Chong shouting and screaming, and then suddenly the world turned white and I suddenly found myself in a memory.

FOUR YEARS AGO

Chong made his was into Aaron's cabin room, he needed to have a good long talk with the kid. Things have gotten a lot different from the first time they met, Aaron was now the number one soldier on the base, unbeatable in both skill and intellect. He could find a solution to any problem, regardless of the origin, not to mention he had way too much speed and strength than as allowed to someone his size. The fact that they're calling him Hercules seemed to. Prove that point.

Chong got to the room in record time, however Aaron wasn't there, there was just a letter on his bed, and it was nearly folded. Chong turned around to leave, before his curiosity got the best of him, in this day and age who still used pen and paper to send messages, and he knew the answer to that. There was only one person who was that old fashioned, and that was Sarah, the only other person who was as powerful and smarter than Aaron himself, she just wasn't one to show it.

Chong decided to bite the bullet and ripped the letter open. 60 seconds later he had a lot in his stomach and wished the ground could just open up and swallow him. She was pregnant, pregnant with Aaron's kid, and she wanted to leave all these behind. Chong understood that much, this base was no place to raise a kid, but she wanted Aaron to come with her, so that they could leave and go make a family like they always planned. She was leaving a week and if he was going to leave with her, he's to meet her in their secret spot later tonight it would be their happily ever after.

Chong didn't hesitate and he ripped the letter to pieces, and then went ahead to throw them in the toilet and flush them down. His heart was pounding loudly within his chest, and it wasn't from guilt, it was from the excitement of what he had just costs his enemy, Aaron took her away from him, it was only right that he returned the favor. If he couldn't have her, then no one else will.

>>>>>>

Chong crashed to the ground, his body smoking and looking desiccated despite his bulk. He had on a nasty grin on his broken face, he was probably drawing great pleasure from the look on pain and horror on my face. Then he looked up to me and said.

”I....still....win. hehehe hahahahahahaha!”

”Arghhhhhhhhh!!!”

A massive lightning bolt came flying out of my hands as his head was lasted apart like a crushed watermelon. And in my grief I fell back as the world went dark with the pull of unconsciousness, but even then....the darkness didn't bring the peace I sought for; Sarah...I'm so sorry.
