A new hope of living
Chapter 1: Leaving the Past
Load Full StoryNext ChapterIt was around 7:00 at night, another normal and silent day passed in the ruins of what was once New York City. The only sounds were those of the Corrupt Army patrols. But they weren't the only ones in the crumbling city. In a small dark alley you could see a bipedal figure that was searching among several boxes, looking for ammunition and supplies, this was none other than Juan, the most wanted person in the world.
Juan wore a worn blue shirt full of dried blood stains and dust, he also wore worn and ripped jeans. Juan was also heavily armed: on his belt he carried two golden revolvers, on his back he had a shotgun, and a small machine gun, hidden in his shoes Juan carried a small Swiss army knife, and about his belt he carried a small bag full of grandas, smoke bombs and a knife.
But Juan was not entirely alone, near one of the boxes was a hologram of what appeared to be a crimson-red woman. This was the artificial intelligence Unit 80050 # scarlet or also known simply as Scarlet.
After searching for 10 minutes in the boxes, without success, Juan slowly withdrew from the boxes and then went to where the hologram of Scarlet was.
"Well baby, * sigh * I couldn't find anything useful to us." Juan took a little pause. "Those will be 10 minutes that I will never get back." Juan said disappointed by not finding anything that was useful to them.
Well Juan ... we'll keep looking. Scarlet's voice said to the disappointed human.
"You're right babe." Juan said making another little pause looking at the destroyed buildings.
"Hey baby, to be honest, I would like to find a place full of peace, where they will not try to kill or capture us. A place that can call ... our ... home." Juan said with a bit of sadness in his voice.
You know ... I would also like to be in the place you describe, it would be, really ... magical. Scarlet said agreeing with Juan.
"* sigh * but ... that dreamed place will never arrive. But let's not be negative, as Mom said: Trust in God and never lose faith." Juan said remembering the wise words of his mother.
Juan, we must go now, remember that we must be hidden from the patrols. Scarlet reminded Juan.
"You're right, it's time to go." Juan said as he took a blue motorcycle helmet, and technologically improved. Juan also took Scarlet's hologram, keeping it in a backpack that was full of ammunition, and a few grenades and smoke bombs.
Then Juan climbed slowly and discreetly onto his motorcycle so as not to attract the attention of the surrounding patrols. But what Juan didn't know was that a corrupt army drone was spying on him from behind a building. Then the drone went down towards its pilot. The pilot then took out a small portable radio, with which he began to say:
"Here rogers, the prey is on its way, I repeat, the prey is on ... its way. Over."
"Copied, good job soldier, we'll ship them later." Said the voice on the radio. Then the soldier began to smile wickedly.
Juan was riding his motorcycle on the abandoned streets of the city, occasionally stopping to see if there were patrol cars nearby.
Juan please don't stop, the faster we get out of town the better. Said Scarlet's voice in Juan's helmet.
"I'm going as fast as I can baby, just calm down, nothing can happen." Juan said reassuring Scarlet a bit.
"Oh really do you think so. Juan?" A sinister male voice said from the front of the street.
"Oh no" Juan said, recognizing the voice instantly.
Juan raised his head and there he was, the leader of the corrupt. Ezequiel. He was wearing armor with the emblem of the corrupt, he also had many weapons throughout his body, Ezequiel was not a normal man, he had metal pieces and was much stronger, and he was not alone, along with him were many armed soldiers until teeth.
"Ezequiel". Juan said with a frown, seeing his enemy, the person who now ruled humanity.
"Do you think only my soldiers are the ones who patrol? Hahaha, don't be so trusting to the next boy." Ezequiel said with an evil smile.
"Don't think I'm not going to fight, you son of a bitch." Juan said with a challenging look at Ezequiel.
Juan no, don't. They are too many, nor you could against all of them Scarlet's voice said in Juan's helmet.
"The girl is right, just turn yourself in and I promise I will at least let you keep one of your limbs." Ezekiel said defiantly.
"I WILL NEVER GIVE UP DAMNED." Roared Juan, and then started on his motorcycle.
"Typical never gives up. Gentlemen already know what to do. Kill him." Ezequiel said, so that later the vehicles of his soldiers would start behind Juan.
Now the desolate streets of New York were louder than ever since the corrupt chased Juan to kill him, some soldiers began to shoot Juan, missing all the bullets, now it was Juan's turn to respond, Juan carried his golden revolvers, to later kill several who were shooting at him, Juan saw that it was his opportunity to create a bottleneck, taking out one of his grenades. Juan threw it at four cars that were following him, causing them to overturn the cars behind. Scarlet then sabotaged the systems of the remaining cars.
"Not bad babe." I congratulate Juan to Scarlet.
You don't do that bad either darling Scarlet said making Juan blush a little. Juan then shook his head and said to Scarlet:
"Hey babe, do you think you can blow up the other bastards?" Juan asked as he shot the other soldiers.
Scarlet didn't say a word, but she did sabotage the cars' engines, blowing them up and killing the remaining soldiers in the process.
"Thanks babe". Juan thanked Scarlet.
hehe ... there is no need ... oh no Scarlet said as they crashed into a dead end road. Juan was greeted by the cold and scratchy pavement, his
face was protected by his helmet.
Juan are you okay? Scarlet asked worriedly at Juan's helmet.
"Arrgg if I think so ... AHHHHH". Juan cried out in pain when a strong pain passed through his right leg, Juan then held until he was able to sit on a wall.
JUAN YOU ARE HURT Scarlet screamed, worrying more for her friend's well-being.
"You see Juan? That's what happens to you for not giving yourself up." Ezequiel said getting out of one of the cars with his remaining men covering his back.
"What do you want now?" Juan asked, leaning more against the wall.
Ezequiel laughed "Nothing" Ezequiel said.
Juan disconcerted staggered more.
"I just wanted to show you the latest in human technology, I call it the Dimension Tide." Ezequiel said as a gigantic machine appeared behind him and his soldiers.
"This marvel of engineering will allow us to get rid of you once and for all." Ezekiel said. Then he motioned for his soldiers to light it.
"Don't think you got rid of my filthy bastard." Juan said, still moaning in pain.
"I will do humanity a great favor by sending you away from this world." Ezequiel said smiling maliciously. Juan quickly collected his weapons and other things.
"Say goodbye to Earth ... Juan ... NOW." Ezekiel screamed.
Juan stayed in his place waiting for the end, but when he started to open his eyes ... everything went black. Ezekiel had finally succeeded ... sending the world's most wanted away from earth.
Before Juan passed out he could notice what looked like a blue sky and some clouds, until everything turned black again.
