Volume I, Chapter II: "Wake Up!"

Alexx is looking up at Roger and Norman, standing at the doorway almost blocking it.

Roger, from a top Norman, “Hey Guy, you okay? You have a hole in your stomach.”

Guy sitting up on the ground holding his stomach, “No, I’m not okay, she shot me! where she get skin piercers from anyway?!”

Roger scratching his head, “hmmm, I don’t know Guy, do you want me to ask her? Maybe she has more of them.”

Alexx is griping her guns while watching this conversation, She slightly turns her head to see any sign of George behind her.

Guy getting angry, “No you idiot, just kill her!”

Roger, “well okay but, how we gonna get the bullets then?”

Norman begins to walk towards Alexx.  Roger jumps off his back and does a flip then lands directly in front of Alexx.

“Alexx, why are you doing this? You have med-tech not soldier-tech or defense-tech. you cannot hope to survive fighting us.”

He looks into her face as she still has her shades on.

“I see, it is for him then, okay.”
He slaps her without her being able to react she falls several feet away. Roger has her shades in his other hand.
Her face is bruised but young looking with eyes similar to George. She spits out blood and begins to stand back up.

Roger, “no.”

He kicks her off the ground then punches her back to the floor. Norman begins to turn in their direction. Roger holds his palm up as if to motion “stop”.
Norman stays in place.

Alexx is holding her ribs and coughing up more blood. “shit. eat shit.”

Roger, “not nice. that is very rude Alexx.”

He raises his hand to deliver a killing blow.

Suddenly an explosion occurs where George is located, it sends dust and debris near them.

Alexx, “George!”
she tries to get to her feet, as she gets to one knee. Roger kicks her back down.

Moments earlier.

George is still downloading information to his wrist.

Voice awaken update. Awaken in 1 micro.

George, “shit! what is the danger level, what is it?”

Voice, “request repeat of danger level results: granted. Current danger Level of Subject C-2676 is 15”

George is trying to disconnect from the panel, looking down at a shadow, “shit.”

Voice, “subject C-2676, is awake. Take needed precautions.”

George turns around to look up at the figure casting the shadow.
It is a tall muscular young man with dark colored skin and long wet tangled hair the color of coal. His eyes and face are shadowed by the light from behind him. He is looking down directly at George without saying a word.

Voice, “emergency, diagnostic result of system predict.”

George his grabbed by the coat, “wait, wait!”

The room explodes.

Now.

Alexx is at Roger’s feet while Guy has walked over to the side leaning against a crate. Norman is till looking on without getting involved.

Roger, “Alexx that makes two brothers now doesn’t it?”

Alexx, “shut up.”

Roger, “In no position to give orders. I will kill you now.”

George’s voice coming from the shadows, “I don’t think so Roger. I think you should leave now. That will be my only warning to you. If you stay i cannot promise your safety.”

Alexx looking up at George, “Shut up, what are you doing? Run get out. leave me here.”

George, “Never. Your my sister, who is gonna cook when your gone?”

Guy frustrated, “enough of this hole in my stomach won’t stop me from snapping your neck."
He starts running towards George. He goes into the shadows and Guy follows.

Shortly after, Guy comes flying back out landing outside the warehouse without his coat and jeans.
George comes from the shadows unharmed, rubbing his hands. “thanks for the warm up.”

Roger, “Interesting. Now Norman.”
Norman starts walking towards him, George slowly backs into the shadows.
Moments after Norman follows him, a big crash and sounds of things breaking occur from the shadows.

Alexx, “George, no.”

Roger looks at Alexx, “his luck ran out.”

George, “you still here? You should leave.”

Roger, “Now it is annoying, how are you alive? Norman is stronger than 12 of you little man. No chance for you to overtake him. Trigger”

He leaves Alexx and is suddenly there with George. He has the blade of his gunsword at his throat, while holding him by his coat. Eyes glowing yellow.

Roger, “no more hiding in the shadows, i will end you now.”

He pulls back to swing, he swings and blood splatters on the floor.
Roger is looking shocked as well. It is a tall slender yet muscular kid with the trench coat and jeans from  Guy. He has dark skin with a huge wet afro hanging down past his shoulder blades. He is young maybe twenty-three or four. He has a slash across his chest where Roger slashed him. Although It is healing at an extremely fast rate before their eyes.

Roger steps back, “who are you.”

The stranger looks at him, “No hurt him.”

George, “tried to tell you.”

George looks at the stranger, and thinks to himself, {amazing he is already healed from that slash like it never happened. That blade goes through bone and metal it should have chopped him in half.}

Alexx, “George?”

George runs over to her and tries to help her up.

“let’s go sis, we gotta get you outta here.”
Alexx, “Who is that guy and why is wet and sexy and muscular and..”
George yelling, “Hey I am right here you know, I don’t wanna here my undersexed sister fantasize about a naked stranger!”
Alexx, “He isn’t naked, but anyway shut up I am not fantasizing. Just help me up, A good two days and the med tech will have me up and running.”
Roger, “you should be dead, you don’t have any tech. how did u survive this blade?”

Stranger, “Leave, alone. No, hurt him.”
 Turns away from Roger to follow George and Alexx. Suddenly he has the blade coming from his stomach. Roger has ran him through with the blade.

George and Alexx see this. Stranger stands there. He looks down at the blade and strikes Roger so hard he flies through the side wall.

George, “hey What’s wrong with you?! pull it out!”

Stranger looking at George and looking down, “pull it..pull it... out!’

He falls to the ground rolling and screaming hysterically.

“What the hell is this doing in my stomach?! Where the hell am I?!”

Alexx and George look at each other confused and shrug their shoulders.

Stranger, “Hey you two don’t just sit there hugging! Call 911!”
They both turn their attention back to the stranger.
George comes over and grabs the handle, “hold still.”

Stranger, “what? hold still? are you crazy? don’t touch that!"
 George yanks it out.

“Shit, hey you little bastard, what’s wrong with you?!”

George is holding the gun-sword across his shoulder. Looking at the stranger yelling at him..
“Excuse me.”
George points at the stranger’s stomach.
The stranger  stops for a moment then looks down , seeing the scar is gone.

Stranger, “oh well, uhm.”
He scratches his head.
“oh okay, that‘s weird.”
He stands up.

Suddenly Roger comes form the shadows and grabs George and throws him over with his sister.

Stranger, “hey that was unnecessary don’t you think?”

George and Alexx are laying knocked out.

Stranger put his hand out, “Chance. My name is Chance. You are?”

Roger stares at hand then ignores it, “that is of no concern to you.”

He picks up the gunsword and puts it in Chances face.

“do you see what I am holding?”

Suddenly it is out of his hand and ion Chances hand

“Well i must admit i have never held anything like this before, but i know what it is. I remember now, a gunsword right? I mean i think it is, when i saw this it was just a drawing on a designers table.”

Roger, “You are mistaken. They were designed over a thousand years ago. Now if you will?”
Roger is holding his hand out for his weapon to be returned to him.
Chance, “Hmm, oh. Okay, here you go.”
He tosses it to him.
  “A thousand years huh, exaggerating a little aren’t you?”

Roger, “I am going to kill you and them, that sir is no exaggeration, I assure you.”
He poses his body as if ready to full fill his promise.

Chance looks at Roger, then George and Alexx knocked out on the ground.
Chance suddenly starts grabbing hi head and moving as if confused or hearing a loud noise.

“kill them? Kill, him. You,  hurt George”
Chance stops moving, lowers his head and arms then coldly speaks,
“that was a mistake".

Roger smiles.

Moments later.

George and Alexx wake up to see Chance looking at them.

Chance, “hey i am Chance, how are you guys doing?”

Alexx looks at Chance, then notices no pain.

“what happened?”

George looks at Chance, “You killed Roger?”

Chance smiling, “Kill? No he is over there.”

They see Roger knocked out in a pile with, Norman and Guy.

As Both siblings get up they notice they are not at the compound.

Alexx, “How did we get across the street?”

Chance, “oh well i carried you of course, you were in no shape to run. And we aren’t across the street were across town.”

Alexx and George, “across town?!”

they look around he is correct they are at  a small vacant lot. There is smoke coming from across town.
George looking at the smoke, “you said run, why would we run?”

Chance, “oh well the building had some sort of old bombs in there or something and when the back room exploded they were engaged. I had to carry everyone out of range of the blast.”

Alexx looking around and then looking at the Steel Dragons, “we have to get out of here.”

Back at what used to be the warehouse, there is a man standing in front of a blue and white D-tech. He is right outside what the remains of the fence. It is reduced to small rocks and almost nothing is left of the building and giant metal crates surrounding it. He has a long black coat on that is buttoned up, with brown short cut hair. he is wearing black boots and shades. He removes the shades and his eyes glow yellow and scan the area, he sees images of  what happened earlier.
He focuses on Chances’ image and pulls it in close so that they are eye to eye.

Man, “Looks like we got a live one.”
