Blood of a Hero part two
Blood of a Hero
Part two
"So... this mission. What exactly was it for?" The female agent asked.
Raz looked at her and placed his empty cup down. He cleared his throat and smirked a bit.
"Well, it wasn't because of Russian soldiers. That's for sure." Raz said.
Colonel Hackman sighed as he listened to Professor Chase explain the new suit that was meant for Raz. He pointed up to a large screen.
"The suit is able to transform with him when he changes. It also has a tracking beacon if he were to disappear. The suit also acts as an enhancer; we've placed millions of Nano needles that will inject anything from epinephrine to Nano machines for rapid healing. Once the Nano machines are in a host though, they will stay there. Plus the suit stays with the biometric host as well." Chase explained.
Hackman blinked as he looked up and sighed, his cigar slowly burning away in his mouth.
"So, you're saying once he puts that thing on. He won't be able to take it off?" Hackman asked.
"Yes sir, it also has a washing system with in it. It keeps the host clean with the Nano machines. So, a shower won't be needed as much." Chase said with a chuckle.
Back in the "Arena" the four sat in the living quarters watching T.V. Raz sighed a bit as he stared at the screen, the mission stuck in his head. Fey knew Raz was thinking this, she looked at him.
"You're really going to go through with this?" Fey said.
"Yes, for the hundredth time Fey! Look, I am tired of being in this "Arena" all the fucking time. I want fresh air like before." he said angrily.
Taboo and Angel blinked as they looked back and listened.
"Look, Raz, this isn't going to end well. You're going to be taking lives; do you really think you can go through with that?" Fey said loudly.
"I don't know." Raz answered.
"Well, you better know soon. Because when you go there, it's them or you." Fey said.
Fey got up and walked off to the sleeping quarters; she walked through the automatic sliding doors and plopped on her bed. Raz looked at Taboo and Angel as they stared at him.
"What?!" Raz asked.
"You do know she has feelings for you." Angel said with a concerned look.
"No shit, she is very protective of you. Besides when we go through our training and tests, she worries a lot." Taboo said.
Raz sighed as he then got up and walked off to the work out area, he went to sit in the steam room and opened the door; He sat down on the wooden bench and grumbled as the steam began to warm up.
Fey laid on her bed, tears rolling down her cheeks; she didn't understand why Raz was so different, ever since the weird asteroid hit the park.
Hackman talked on the phone for a few minutes and hung up; he looked up at Chase and gave a nod. Chase nodded back and walked out of the office and went down the hall, he pointed to a team of scientists and they walked behind him with the suit in a large case.
He put his thumb to the scanner and the door opened up to the Arena, he walked in side and four soldiers walked in with rifles, two stood guard at the door while the other two followed Chase.
"Raz? Front and center." Chase yelled.
Both Taboo and Angel stood up and blinked, this was the first time anyone came in here. Human contact was just to themselves. Raz blinked as he walked out and saw soldiers and the scientists all looking at him.
"Who are you?" Raz asked.
"Professor Chase." Chase answered.
Fey blinked hearing the commotion and walked out to see the group. She blinked hearing the name.
"Your Chase." Angel asked.
"Yes, I am Chase." he answered calmly.
Raz blinked seeing the suit; he arched a brow and looked to Chase. Chase smiled in return as he walked to the suit; punched in a code and two glass doors opened up to the suit.
"This is yours, now mind you it will feel weird at first, but it was built for you only." Chase said as he then nodded to the team and the walked back out the doors.
Raz blinked as he watched them leave, Fey did as well. While Taboo and Angel looked at each other and shrugged, they ran over to the suit and marveled at it.
"This thing looks awesome. It's made of a very flexible metal. Not sure what though, looks like Titanium dipped fibers. The studs look like they are for something, not sure what, but the thing is wicked." Taboo said excited.
"No idea what you said, but how the hell did you know that just by looking at it?" Angel asked.
"Not a clue, but I can just look at something and it's like I know everything about it." Taboo said shrugging.
Fey blinked as she walked over with her arms crossed, she stood behind Raz. Raz was in front of the suit and he stared at it, the suit was a jet black, the studs were like the stars on a general's uniform. The arms were cut short, while the legs were also the same, but the studs ran down the sides. He then reached out and suddenly an electric spark arched from the suit to his hand, he reacted fast as the suit suddenly opened up. He blinked as he then grabbed it out slowly, and then walked with it to the showers.
Fey, Taboo and Angel watched him walk away with the suit; they all then slowly walked towards the shower. Watching the blurred figure undress and then put the suit on, they stopped waiting for anything to happen.
Raz blinked as he had the suit on, he over looked it. The chest being wide open he picked up the one large flap and brought each side of the shoulder up to him. The stud sparked, and suit wielded to its self, Raz jumped at the sudden feeling, then he winced as the studs all sparked and electric arks roamed over his body.
"Graaah!" Raz groaned.
The suit tightening up, then the Nano needles pierced his skin and imbedded the tips to make sure when he changed the tips won't break off. Then the fibers contracted and tightened around his torso, legs and his arms, seeming to make a skin tight suit.
Raz panted as he was hunched over, he held his chest having a bit of a hard time breathing. He then fell to his knees feeling a slight pinch all over his body and he gritted his teeth.
Fey, Taboo and Angel blinked as they rushed over and bursted through the door, once inside they saw Raz on his knees holding his chest. Fey was the first to run over and make sure he was alright.
"You okay?" Fey asked.
"Yeah, just feel weird a bit. Tight fit." Raz answered.
"Looks fuckin awesome!" Taboo shouted.
"Watch your mouth." Raz growled.
"Sorry..." Taboo said.
Raz stood up, grabbing onto the metal sink and using it as a leverage to stable himself before he could fall. Fey helped him as much as she could, Taboo also ran over to help. Angel although stared at the new assessment to her older "brother".
Taboo marveled at it, he ran his hand down Raz's chest and stomach. Raz blinked as he watched and stepped away, he arched a brow as he then looked to Fey and smiled. He walked to his jeans and put them on, the suit now looking like a tight shirt. He ran his hands down his new "shirt.
"Good, you put it on, how does it feel?" Chase asked.
"Tight." Raz answered as he walked out of the shower room.
"It will, but you will get used to it. It is an advanced suit meant for you. It will help with the mission." Chase explained.
Raz blinked as he nodded and walked to the sleeping area, he yawned and plopped down and fell asleep minutes after lying down. Fey blinked as she shrugged and went to the shower room to wash up, while Taboo and Angel went back to the living area to watch more television.
Hackman over watched a metal shop, as the firm hired four men from china to make a katana for Raz. They worked for a full month and they held the new, shiny sword. Hackman sighed as he over looked the blade, the scary sharp blade was frightening to anyone.
Chase blinked as he too looked at the blade; he smiled to himself as he sheathed the sword. He made a holster for the blade, the belts wrap around the torso and arms. He smiled to himself as he then began making something else for the blade.
One month later...
"Okay, now we have a helicopter ready for you. It will be a full eighteen hours until you get five miles from the base. Now, you will come up to the base north-west from this silver mine. Then you will find your way around the perimeter fence. You will then be on your own from there; Fey will have a connection to you with her power. Fey, you will help us instruct him on where to go, and what to do." Hackman explained.
"Yes Father." Fey answered.
Raz stood calmly with his blade on his back, his suit the only thing he was wearing. He only smiled as he then walked to the doors as they opened and there were six soldiers with rifles. One of the soldiers placed a black bag over both Raz's and Fey's head. Raz smirked under the bag as the bag did nothing to block his sight. His new vision helped him see body heat, and outline of the soldiers in his sights, he followed as best he could as the walls, floors and doors were cold. So, all he could see was the body heat.
Fey didn't have that luck, she was blind from the sack, and was pulled through the hallways. She kept her eyes closed not wanting to see the black sack, hating this treatment. She was human, she had rights.....or was she even considered human? She sighed at that thought, now able to turn into a feline. She didn't like it, but she was "gifted" as father would say.
Taboo and Angel both seemed nervous and impatient with their two older care takers gone. Taboo strutted back and forth in a straight line; Angel sat on the sofa not wanting to think of what horrible things her older "brother" will be doing.
Sixteen hours into the flight, Raz and Fey were still blind folded with the sacks. Raz sat calmly as he began to concentrate on his task at hand. He gritted his teeth as he began his transformation, first his feet began to crack, his toes extending slightly, then thickening. His calves bulged with his muscles as his skin began to darken and become hard. His scales taking on the black sheen. His thighs tensed and expanded into powerful draconic legs, He grunted as his stomach area tightened and became more refined with muscle. His chest heaved with hard breathing, the transformation being painful. HE winced as his mouth extended into a snout, his teeth becoming sharp to a point. Becoming fangs, he let out a hiss, his tongue becoming forked into two points. Suddenly two horns sprouted out from his skull, tearing out of the sack. His eyes took on a red glow, his pupils slits now. He growled lowly from his throat.
A soldier blinked as he held his rifle, ready to aim if needed; not that it would do a thing against those scales. He was nervous and began to sweat hearing the hissing and growling, he looked over to the female watching to see if she would change into a monster.
Fey only sat there; she seemed to breathe harder as she tried to use her powers to take away Raz's pain. It was no use, such a transformation was hard and painful, and she winced as she felt like every bone in her body was being stressed to their points. She shook her head as she couldn't hold onto her connection with Raz. The pain being too much.
"Okay, we are nearly to the dropping point. You and you open the hatch door and get him ready." The polite shouted.
Two soldiers nodded and grabbed Raz's arms and lifted him up. They took the sack off and both stepped away, those burning red eyes snapping open and a hiss was heard.
"Back off!" Raz hissed.
"Okay! Go! Go! Go!" The polite shouted.
Raz smirked as he looked out the back of the chopper and leaped out of the chopper. Without a parachute, he began to free fall. The soldiers gasped and ran to the back to try and watch. Raz smirked as wind blew past his ears loudly, his vision enabled him to see the trees and land clearly as day.
Fey gasped, feeling the whoosh of cold air invading the chopper. She clung to the nearest thing to her, which was a soldier who only chuckled.
"Don't worry baby, we aren't gunna throw you out." The soldier laughed.
"Fuck you." Fey said angrily.
The soldier blinked as he pushed her off, he snorted and smacked her face. Fey shrieked not expecting the hit; she held her face in pain. A soldier yelled something she couldn't make out from the buzzing of the hydraulics closing the hatch door.
Raz still in free fall squinted as he noticed a group of men around a camp fire who didn't even hear a chopper. A smile grew over his face as he tucked his arms in, making him begin to fall faster. Like a bullet in the sky, he flipped and came down hard. One of the men didn't even know what hit him, just a heavy weight crushing him. Raz snarled as he hit hard, making the human smoosh under him, the ground concaved in at least ten feet in depth and eight feet in width.
The other human soldiers grunted flying back from the hard hit, a boom was heard. Trees fell over from their trunks being cracked from the ground. The soldiers stood back up panicked thinking they were hit from enemy fire. The held up their AK-47's and looked around, only to stop on a pair of red eyes.
Raz hissed with pleasure as he stood there, a smile clearly on his lips. Showing his white fangs, his paws armed with deadly claws that could shred through Kevlar vests. He looked to all the soldiers around him. Ten, that's it? He thought to himself. He shrugged and jumped up before one of them could fire. He slashed at one across the face, the weak flesh tearing like paper. A gurgle was heard, then a scream as he back handed another. The human flying like a rag doll into a tree, his spine wrapped around a tree and he fell dead. The others open fire on the monster.
The bullets flying around hitting trees, rocks and some hitting their mark; only to bounce off his scaled arm, Raz hissed as he then charged another and punched at his chest. The soldier lifted from the ground and fell down dead, the vest concaved in from the hit. Instantly stopping his heart, Raz smiled as he then looked to the other six. They all stood there shaking from fear, those piercing red eyes seemed like the devil was there to collect souls.
Raz let out a roar, making the only five run off for their lives. The last one stood there and dropped his gun, his pants wet from urine. Raz chuckled as he walked over to the soldier and stared right back into those human eyes. He then opened his mouth, saliva stringing from tooth to tooth, he hissed loudly. The human soldier whimpered as he stared at those teeth.
"Please..." He begged.
Raz then closed his mouth as he stared back at him once again.
"You're...American!?" He said surprised.
"Yes! I have a family! Please don't kill me!" The soldier fell to his knees.
Raz hissed in frustration, he slashed at the soldier's neck. The soldier gasped his neck now gapping from the slash. Choking and gurgling was heard as he began to choke on his own blood. His hands desperately tried to grasp at his detached trachea, no use; he began to feel weak. His blood pumping at a fast rate, he stared at the demon in front of him, his killer; his punishment.
Raz stood there watching the human die at his feet, he hissed once again looking up to see the base was now on full alert. Spot light scanned the area, soldiers taking vantage points at the base towers.
"Raz?" A voice called in his head.
Raz panicked and looked around quickly.
"Show yourself!" He roared.
"Raz, it's me. Fey." Fey said again in his head.
"Fey?!" He thought.
"Yes, Fey. Who were you expecting?! God?!" Fey shouted in his head.
"Well, no...but. Never mind, what is it?" Raz thought back.
"Father isn't pleased with this. You got the base on high alert, they are looking for you!" Fey said nervously.
"Yeah, well. They sure as hell aren't Russian." Raz growled as he walked through the trees.
"What do you mean not Russian?!" Fey said.
"They are American. Tell Father he better tell me what this is for?!" Raz though calmly as he knelt down in a thick bush.
Fey blinked as she opened her eyes and looked up at Father, well she would if the sack wasn't still on her head. Who in turn was standing there waiting to know what the hell went wrong.
"There isn't any Russians is there father?" Fey asked.
"No, there isn't. Now tell me what went wrong?!" Hackman shouted.
"I don't know. He wants to know what he is doing there." Fey said.
Hackman sighed as he rubbed his temples, he looked at his watch and groaned.
"Alright, he needs to get into the base and find the science wing, South-east of his position once there, he must find a way into the lab and look for the second half of the asteroid." Hackman explained.
"Second half?!?!" Fey shouted.
"Silence! Yes the second half, you four were found with the first half embedded within your bodies. We couldn't remove the fragments because your bodies absorbed them." Hackman said sternly.
Fey blinked as she now knew why they had these powers, she didn't want to believe it, but it was the truth. She shook her head and closed her eyes.
"Raz, you need to head to the science wing South-East of your position. Once there find a way in and take the second half of the asteroid." Fey said.
"Second half?!?" Raz shouted.
"Yes, the second half." Fey answered.
"What the fuck Fey?!?" Raz shouted.
" I know, but just do this and we can go back." Fey said.
Raz sighed as he nodded, he looked up at a soldier who was using a spot light to scan the area. He waited for him to look to his right, he watched closely and then ran out from the bush and jumped over the fence with ease. He dived for the long grass and pressed himself up against the wall. Raz looked around at the wall and spotted a small opening, he crawled towards it and sighed.
"Fuck, too small for me to fit in." He whispered to himself.
Raz then blinked hearing footsteps running towards him, he ducked down and hugged the ground. He looked up with his heat vision and saw two soldiers with rifles scanning the area, he slowed his breathing down.
"I thought I fucking heard something." One of the soldiers said.
"Yeah? Well I think you're just paranoid." The other said.
" I'm telling the truth man! The fucking thing was a monster!" The soldier shouted.
"Bull shit! You just got spooked by an enemy." The other soldier said.
"Fuck you, this thing wasn't human. It had red eyes, fangs and claws!" The soldier shouted.
"Whatever man, come on the alert was cancelled there's nothing out there." The other soldier said walking away.
Raz smirked as he heard them argue, he noticed the one he spooked earlier stayed and only sighed. He stood there and looked out of the fence, and he kept his rifle ready, as he scanned the tree line. Raz stood up slowly, making sure not to make a noise; he stared at the soldier and crept up behind him. Soon he was a mere inch from the soldier's back, he exhaled slowly from his nostrils, causing a low hiss to be heard. The soldier froze in place and let out a whimper, he turned slowly to stare at those red eyes.
"Fuck me..."He said in a whisper/whimper.
Raz covered his mouth and bit into his throat, only hearing a gurgling sound from the human losing his breath from the intense pain. Raz lowered himself with the human in his maw, he let go of his throat once he knew he was dead. He dragged the body into the long grass and looked around, he suddenly felt a twinge of something hit him like a log at the back of his head. He grunted as he fell over, head in his paws.
"Yesssss...." A voice said in his head.
"What...the...fuck...!" Raz hissed softly.
"You, are the one I wassssss waiting for sssssooo long! You are the human who will help me rule over thissssss world." The voice said.
"Who the fuck are you?!" Raz groaned as he crawled away to an air duct big enough for him to hide in.
"I am your other sssside, the ssside that you choossse to ignore for sssso long!" The voice said.
Raz winced as he fought at something scratching away at his head, he let out a hiss that echoed through the air ducts.
A soldier blinked and looked back, up at an air vent; the hiss escaping from there and every other vent.
"Don't worry man, the furnace tends to do that when it is heating up." A scientist said.
"You sure? That didn't sound like a furnace." The soldier answered.
"Yeah man, now do you have a light?" The scientist asked, a smoke hanging from his lips.
"Yeah man." The soldier said pulling out a zippo.
"What the fuck was that?" Fey said out loud.
"What? What was it?" Hack asked.
" I don't know, I lost my connection. It's like something blocked off Raz from me." Fey answered.
"What do you mean blocked him off?!? Get him back!" Hackman shouted.
" I'm trying Father." Fey answered nervously.
Fey closed her eyes once again, she concentrated hard on her last connection with Raz. She winced as she tried harder, something was defiantly keeping her from getting him back. She sighed in frustration as she couldn't concentrate any harder.
"Sorry Father, but I lost him." Fey said.
"Fuuck me!" Hackman groaned.
Raz winced as he fought off whatever it was, he shook his head and looked around. He couldn't figure out what that was but kept going, he crawled into the large, but tight duct for HIS size. He peaked down into a large room of a scientist talking to a soldier.
"Look man, all I am saying is this thing! That I got to work with, has potential. I am talking about new weapons, new energy for everything from planes to a god damn toy! It also has something else that might just be able to turn you guys into super soldiers!" The scientist was explaining.
"I don't fucking think so! I know for a fact that whatever that thing is! It will be used as a weapon, maybe a new fucking atomic bomb! It is all that the government cares about, a new bomb would cause the rest of our enemies to back down." The soldier said.
" No way! I see something better, like muscle growth, are fucking brain growth. We tested on some mice and they all have shown a more improved strength! They can chew through fucking pipes man! I've only known rats could only do that!" The scientist said excited.
The soldier shook his head as he exhale the smoke from his lungs, he tilted his head back while he was. He blinked seeing two red eyes peering down at him.
"What the fuck..."He only had time to say.
Raz smashed through the metal wall of the vent and the concrete wall surrounding it, he fell down and crushed the human's skull into the concrete floor. He looked up at the scientist who was standing there in sheer disbelief of what was standing in front of him.
"Wh-what the fuck are you!?" He asked.
" I am "The Dragon", I am here to collect the second half of the asteroid." Raz answered.
"No! Kill him! Tear hisss throat out!" The voice shouted.
Raz winced as he shook his head and stumbled a bit, he held his head as he hissed at the voice. The scientist blinked as he took his chance and took off down the large corridor to the lab room. He hit a switch which cause two large blast doors to close on each other, he panted as he looked up and saw that there was him and two other scientists' in the room.
"you're not gunna fucking believe this, but I just saw a fucking dragon!" He said pointing to the wall.
Outside the blast doors, Raz was growling away at the voice in his head. He snarled and slammed his head into a wall, the concrete cracking from the sheer force. He then snapped up and roared at the door. He walked straight up to it and punched at the large steel door, his fist made contact and he only dented the door. He hissed in anger as he felt no pain, he began to punch the door continuously, each hit causing the door to dent more, metal groaned and creaked; as cracks began to tear through the metal.
On the other side the three scientists began to pack up their work and grab anything that was important. They panicked as they heard the loud banging of the monster behind those doors trying to bust its way in. They then walked over to a large glass box that held the other half of the asteroid, they blinked as a red glow was emanating from the rock.
"What the fuck is it doing?!" One asked.
"I don't know, this is the first it is reacting this way." Another said.
"Fuckin grab it! We need it to figure out what powers it holds!" The one scientist yelled.
The two looked at each other and took off running to the escape elevator pod, the one scientist blinked ashes watched them use the only escape. He cursed as he was now trapped in the room. Suddenly groaning was heard from the doors, he turned around to see the doors were glowing orange like a large flamethrower was burning away at the other side.
In fact it was a huge flamethrower, Raz was standing there. What was supposed to be a roar turning out to be a large white hot flame that was escaping his maw. HE seemed to never run out of breath until he saw that the doors had melted, a large hole was seen and he stopped and inhaled sharply. He panted as he walked over to the large opening, his paw touching the molten metal. Sizzling was heard but it had no effect on him, he walks in and looked to see the one scientist trying to pack a large box with a red glowing rock inside it.
"You!" Raz growled.
"Fuck!" The scientist panicked and dropped the box.
Raz went wide eyed as he dashed for the box, but was a mere second late. The thick glass shattered and the rock smashed into what appeared to be a red dust. Raz stepped away and blinked as the dust appeared to have a mind of its own, swirling in the air and then went for a host. Sensing Raz, it went straight for him, Raz blinked as he shielding himself as best he could from the dust. But the dust moved around his arms and without effort pushed its way into his eye ducts, nostrils and even his mouth. Raz gasped, his arms fell limp and he tilted his head back as the immense cloud of red dust pushed its way into his system.
The scientist blinked as he watched in horror, he dropped his papers as he swallowed hard. Seeing the large door melt from the immense power, he decided to take a chance and make a dash for it. He ran past the dragon, only to have his throat grabbed by the dragon's powerful paw, the claws scratching painfully at his flesh.
"Where do you think you're going?!" Raz snarled as his irises were now red, and his eye Blass were now black, his fangs extended even longer.
The scientist choked and gasped for air as he gripped at the arm, his eyes filled with panic and fear.
"Please..." Was all he could muster.
Raz gave a smile, his fangs gleamed from the fluorescent lights. HE opened his maw, a hiss coming from his throat as he chomped down on the weak neck of the human. He ripped the flesh clean off in one bite, he chewed and swallowed as he then went back to the now gapping throat and drank the pumping blood. The human couldn't even breathe from the immense pain that was inflected onto him, his body limp and soon lifeless.
Raz dropped the dead human as he licked his lips, panting from the "feeding" he began to chuckle as he ran his paws over his cheeks to the back of his neck and savored the taste. His eyes snapped open as he looked back to see a large group of soldiers standing there with their rifles aimed at him.
"Open fire!" One of them shouted.
Gun began to blast at the dragon, the bullets no use; they just bounced off the scaled monster as he stood there. Of course the power behind the bullets making it seem like he was being pushed by a fast punch, but he smiled as he walked towards them none the less. He roared out as he inhaled deep and made for another roar, but a large white flame was released. The soldier's barley had enough time to even scream as they were incinerated instantly, Raz let the flame die down. All that remained were burnt carcasses', he snorted.
"Not even worth my time." He said cocky.
Fey gasped as she felt an immense power over throw her and she held her head, she winced and groaned in pain. Hackman jumped up and grabbed her, he ripped off the sac to see, and her nose was bleeding.
"What happened?!?" He yelled worried.
"I...I don't know.....something happened to Raz..."She whimpered as she felt something poke her brain.
"What do you mean?!" Hackman shouted.
"He...he has become stronger somehow....."Fey winced as she shook her head. " I can't get him back, he has become too powerful........the second half...something went wrong!" Fey said worried.
"No...." Chase said.
"What's going on Chase?!" Hackman demanded.
"The second half....he absorbed it.......all that power......the suit will adapted to his new power...but we won't be able to stop him!" Chase said panicked.
"What do you mean?!?" Hackman asked.
Raz smirked as he kicked out a steel door without any effort, he walked out into the snow and exhaled slowly. The heat of his breath so hot the air heated up and steam escaped his lungs.
"Father, I will free Fey and the other two.........then I am coming for you." Raz said.
Back at the base Fey said the same line in sync as if Raz had taken over her mind to tell him what was to come. Hackman looked at Fey, he dropped her down to the floor; fear in his eyes as he stepped back from his daughter.
"Son of a bitch..."Hackman said.
End part two......
