Random Life (Book Thing 1)

-Dream-

I look around and find that I’m strapped into a chair in what looks to be a interrogation room. There was a small metal table, and a mirror in front of me, a small light bulb hanging from the ceiling, and a door to my left. I looked down and saw that my clothes had changed. I was now wearing black combat boots, military green cargo pants, and a plain white t-shirt. The door suddenly swung open to reveal three figures, the first two looked identical. They both had camo shirts and pants with pistols strapped to their sides, they looked to be standard M9 Beretta's, how I knew this I don’t know. They were also carrying, the iconic bad guy weapon, AK-47’s. The final figure wore a jet black business suit, a bowler hat, and had a wooden cane in his right hand, he looked like he belonged in the 1950’s. I couldn’t help but giggle a little, catching his attention even more. “What’s so funny American?” The man asked in a stern voice.

“Your outfit man, you look like you belong in the 1950’s.” I say, only to get punched in the face by one of the guards, “That’s going to leave a mark.” I thought to myself before the man spoke again.

“Who are you, what’s your rank and serial number, and do you know where you are?” he asked. I just smirked. “My name is Lieutenant Corbin Ryan, my favorite cereal is Krave, and no, I don’t know where I am, nor do I know why I am here.” I state in a cocky tone, and again was treated with a punch to the face.

“Well then it seems that you are not who I thought you to be, and that I have no further use of you.” He motions to the guards, ”Dispose of him.” The man says in a board tone, and walks out the door, closing and locking it behind him. The guard on my right unties me while the other stands at the ready, once my hands were free I reached up and grabbed his pistol. I quickly shot it’s owner twice in the chest, grabbed his shoulder, and spun him around in front of me using him as a shield. I whipped the pistol around and shot the other guard three times, two in the body and one in the neck. I let go of the dead guard that I was using as a body shield and grabbed his knife to untie my legs, after I was completely free I went and picked up the first guards pistol. It happened to be fully loaded and the guard also had three extra mags on him, I took the AK-47 from the other guard and it too was fully loaded, though I could only find four mags between them both for it. I grabbed the keys off the second guard, unlocked the door, and braced myself for whatever was behind it.

I opened it and was instantly punched in the face, sending me to the ground, “What the fuck man, is it everyone punch me in the fuckin face day!” I yell, when I get up I see non-other than Kim staring at me in disbelief.

“Holy shit Kim, next time give me a warning when you’re angry at me.” I joked, only to notice that a guard had came around the corner. I shoved Kim to the left, and pulled my rifle up into my shoulder pocket and let off an entire thirty round clip into the man. With every shot the man was forced backwards in a terrifying death dace, once the clip ran dry the man fell onto what was left of his back and into a pool of his own blood.

I turned back to look at Kim, but was meet with a slap to the face, “Next time warn me when you’re gonna shoot somebody, I don’t want to see that shit.” She says.

“*Sigh*, fine, But anyway, how the hell did you get here? And where is here to be exact?” I asked. Kim just shrugged, ”I don’t know how the hell I got here, and I don’t know where the fuck we are.” She said.

“It’s some kind of base, and most bases have only one way in and one way out. So all we have to do is find the front door and walk out, piece of cake right?” I say sarcastically. Kim just face palms and gives me the best no shit look ever. I just reload my rifle and start slowly walking down the hallway, Kim not far in tow behind me.

We walk for a few minutes until we came into a huge room, it looked like a paintball course with all the massive slabs of concrete and steel that were spread throughout the room. There was also a massive door at the other end that just gave me a bad feeling.

“Ah, well isn’t it the two escapees that have caused me so much trouble.” The one man’s voice spoke over the intercom system, “As fun as it was watching your escape attempt, it has to end here. Have fun with my latest toy.” He said as the massive doors began to part, reveling a robot that doubled my height. It looked exactly like the sentry bot from fallout; it had the triple barrel missile launcher on its right arm, and the six barrel mini gun on it’s left.

The mini gun started to spin up, signaling it was about to fire. I grabbed Kim by the arm and ran to the nearest concrete slab, bullets tearing up the ground behind us as we ran. Once behind cover I tried to think of a plan to take it down, I leaned out of cover and took some pot shots at it, but they just bounced off. Though I notice that there was some kind of power supply on the back, I thought about it for a moment and it seemed to be our best bet if we wanted get out of here alive.

“Okay, Kim, I’m going to need you to distract it enough so that I have a clear shot at its back, ok, good, go!” I yell just as our cover explodes into a ball of flames, sending me and Kim flying. The bot was looking over towards Kim, who just got up and took cover again, so took the opportunity and ran behind it. Much to my pleasure there was a huge glowing box on the back, I took aim and let off a three round burst from the AK. There was a flash of blinding light, before I blacked out.

-Reality-

I shot up breathing heavily, pistol in my hand aiming towards a confused looking Celestia. I look to my right and notice that Kim was doing the same, but she was holding a small dagger in a defensive way. I also notice that I’m back in the hospital, “Great.” I thought to myself, lowering my gun. My gun, or should I say hand cannon, was a pitch black Desert Eagle .50 cal. It disappeared as soon as I knew I wasn’t in any danger. I looked to Kim and gave her my best what the fuck just happened face, and she gave a shrug and walked out of the room. Celestia was still staring at me, probably wanting me to explain what just happened.

“Okay, before you ask, all that happened was that me and Kim had the same dream, and it ended somewhat abruptly and we thought we were still in the dream.” I say, hoping she won’t pry. Celestia just nods and walks out the door with a confused expression still on her face. After she left I went to find Kim, all the while re-summoning my hand cannon. I found Kim raiding the castles fridge, and in the half an hour it took me to find her I learned that I could change my hand cannon into any weapon I thought of, “Best power ever “, I thought to myself.

“Hey asshole, at least save some of the food for me.” I say, Kim turns around, flips me off, and goes back to the fridge. I just chuckled, “Anyway, I just wanted to know if you wanted to come with me to shoot some shit with this magic gun I got.” I say, gaining her attention, I summon my gun and change it a few time to show her I wasn’t just trying to get her away from the fridge.

“That’s fuckin awesome, I’ll come with, I want to see some shit explode for real.” Kim says while getting up. We walk around for a while until we came across what I think is the guards training room, it was a huge circular room with separate areas for different training. There was an area for hand to hand, one for archery, and one for what looked like forging. I moseyed over to the archery station and summoned my gun. I slowly took aim at one of the targets, lining up the sights with its head, I fired. The hand cannon erupted into an ear shattering BANG as the massive .50 caliber shot exploded the dummies head, and embedded itself into the wall behind it, taking a chunk out.

“That Was AWSOME!” Kim yells from behind me, throwing her fist into the air in excitement. I changed the hand cannon into an M60 LMG and held it at my hip, pointing it in the general direction of the remaining four dummies. I pulled the trigger and held it down until all one hundred and fifty rounds had been expended. There was almost nothing left of the dummies, or the wall. I didn’t hear Kim say anything so I turned around. Only to see, yet another, angry looking Celestia. “Well fuck my life.” Is all I say to the situation.
