The meeting

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Spike opened his eyes to see he was still in the drivers seat of the CELL truck he stole. He then noticed something; it was on it's side. Spike growled, and kicked off the driver's door. He then got up, and cracked his neck, sighing happily hearing the joints pop.

"Prophet---hurry up and meet us at---apartment twenty-----" The man said through the COMMs.

Spike jumped down, and walked out of the bulding he crashed into. He felt something drip on his armor, and looked up. "Looks like it's going to rain. Better get to that apartment fast." Spike said, as the rain turned into a down pour. Spike then turned on his nanovision, searching for enemies. Seeing none, he turned his nanovision off, and walked towards his destination.

"You over there. You, over there. We heard the tin man is coming into this sector. Do not let Prophet escape." A CELL sargent said, passing by a ally. Spike turned his cloak off, and looked around.

"Man, this Prophet guy must've done something to piss those guys off." Spike said to himself, walking towards a apartment. He stopped, and turned his cloak on, hearing something. He walked in, bringing his M9 out.

"Intel says two guys named Psyco and Gould are in here. Check out the building." A CELL operative said, watching as three of them nodded and ran off. Spike put a silencer on his weapon, and fired three times. One bullet hit the back of man's leg, the other his back, and the last aimed at his skull, making a silent kill. He reloaded, and walked up the stairs. Seeing another soldier, he turned his cloak off and ran up to him.

"What the hell-AGH!!!" The man said before Spike kicked his leg, sending it to bend the wrong way, making a sickening breaking sound. Spike then fired once, impacting the bullet through the man's helmet and into his skull.

Spike reloaded, and heard someone coming up the steps. He threw the pistol at the CELL soldier, picked up the dead one's pump shotgun, and fired at the other, killing him. Spike pumped it, and bent down to pick up ammo when he heard another noise. He quickly reloaded the shotgun, and aimed it at the elevator.

A man with the same suit as Spike came out, with a civilian human behind him. Psyco held his revolver at point blank range, but saw who it was and lowered his weapon. "Good to see you boss. CELL is crawling here. Looks like you took three out, judging by the blood on your armor." Psyco said, pointing to Spike's armor. Psyco then turned around, and said, "C'mon boss."

Spike followed without question, and lowered his weapon. The civilian pushed the button to the tenth floor, and the elevator went up. "Good to see you Prophet. Looks like those marines didn't make it. Such a shame. Anyway, we have to check your suit for any errors or Ceph sightings." Gould said, patting Spike on the shoulder.

They got out of the elevator, and walked into a door. Spike saw a weird, human sized chair, but, it had tech. "Sit down Prophet, we need to get to work." Gould said, as Spike complied. Gould checked up on his computer, but Spike stared at Psyco.

"What is it Proph?" Psyco asked, his austrailian accent familiar to Spike.

Spike looked at Gould as he found something. "Wait a second. You're not Prophet! Who are you? A spy?" Gould asked, making Psyco bring his revolver out and aim it at Spike's head. But then, a video showed on the screen, showing the flash back of what happened to Prophet. Gould sighed sadly after it was over, while Psyco just stared at the screen. "So, you must be special. Prophet doesn't pick anyone for the suit unless he trusts them completely. Guess, you just happen to be there at the right place and right time." Gould said, looking away sadly. "What's your name anyway?" Gould asked.

"Spike, my name is Spike." Spike said, getting up, smiling warmly.
