Chapter Five: Retribution
-
Apollo smiled. “Or else?”
-
The Gunslinger spins down and shoots Apollo in the leg. “Next bullet will go in one of your colleagues’ heads. Get the picture?”
-
Apollo quickly reacts and kicks a forcefield too small to notice, slowing the bullet, but still allowing impact. “Ow.”
-
Andaluza hears the gunshot but says nothing. Apollo will make it. He’s survived worse.
-
The Gunslinger tilts his head. “Lower the shields, now. Last chance. Playing with your life is one thing… But with others’? That’s cruel.”
-
Apollo looks back and at Andaluza, his eye flashing momentarily. “You wish it was. Your move.”
-
Andaluza puts away the book and generates an invisible electric field around Pandora and himself. “Stage 2 will begin.”
-
*Pandora jumped at the gun shots, she put her hands to her mouth and breathed rapidly semi hyper ventilating*”I-I”, she stammered still hyper ventilating. Her dark self took advantage of her mentally weak state and started creeping her way into Pandora’s body.”Nu-no”, she stammered.
-
Apollo looks dangerously at the gunslinger. [Thought] Good good, you still think you’re in power.
-
Andaluza strengthened the field, holding Pandora in place with him. “Calm down. I need your speed to create a vacuum in the next stage. I’ll use my strength to do things in the next two stages.”
-
*Pandora tryed her best to stop hyper ventilating, she eventually stopped and breathed normally, her dark self was faintly present in her now, trying to influence her to become unstable and let her take over, she tried to ignore her but her voice just kept echoing in her head*”Ev-everything’s f-f-fuzzy b-but I’ll t-try”, Pandora stammered, her dark self was trying to take over her dialogue.
-
“My move, eh?” The Gunslinger shouts down the hall. “Kill the first girl! We need more aggressive negotiation!” As he says this, one of his commandos approaches the hologram of Katherine. The feed cuts out momentarily, and a gunshot is heard. When the feed returns, Katherine appears to have a bullet hole in her head. The Gunslinger shouts again down the hall. “Now load the other one up. Things might get messy.” He turns to Apollo, raising an eyebrow expectantly as Faye is loaded into his ship. “Your move now, but I must say, it is a shame. All you have to do is lower the damn shields.”
-
Andaluza put his hands on Pandora’s shoulders. “Stay with me. We can do this.”
-
*Pandora flinched at Andaluza’s touch, her vision was actually blurring, when she heard the gun slingers word and the gun shot, she started to cry, she whipped her eyes and turned to him*”What do I need to do again”, she said sternly, her Tattoo glowing very very brightly.
-
Andaluza yells and t hologram of Katherine disappears. “Apollo, now!”
