Chapter 7, part 2: Rescue the ones in need
“I do not care if I will die; others need my help, and I am the only one who is willing and able to do it.”
Now, running into the ruins of Bozeman might seem like a bad idea, and honestly, it is, but I still need to help the survivors, even if it kills me. Or, That would be the case if…
“GOD FUCKING DAMNIT!” I, of course, ran out of fuel while I was driving into town. I ran to the back of the jeep to grab my backpack, and I began to walk. After walking for a few minutes, I began to meditate, thinking to myself about how I could get people to the capitol ship. Then I thought of my house, and then, out of nowhere, a light blue aura wrapped around me, and I vanished into thin air…
Modern Day
“What happened?” Scarlet asked with a curious look on her face
“I teleported…” I responded with a shrug, grabbing the flask on my hip. While drinking, I noticed that Scarlet was looking at me funny. " What is on your mind, Kid?”
“What are you drinking?” she blurted out in an instant.
“Whisky…” I hesitantly replied, closing the flask and putting it on my hip.
“Why?”
” Because when you become a soldier, you also become an alcoholic.” I responded with a shrug. “Anyways, can I get back to my story?” As soon as she nodded, I got back to telling my story…
May 17th, 2024
Pushing myself off of the living room floor after the faceplant that I took after, I somehow managed to teleport to my house. Looking around, I heard something rustle before I heard what sounded like laughter. Now, I might have been paranoid, but I still pulled out my machete and approached the sound carefully.
“Who’s there?” I asked, and the laughing stopped immediately. I took a few more steps forward and asked, “Who is there? You are making me nervous.” After I said that, the laughing started again quietly until reaching a feverish pitch, causing me to grip my machete tighter. “Final warning,” I said, my voice and eyes hardening. “Who are you? Why are you here?” I said, rounding a corner and jumping back as something jumped at me.
Whatever it was, it was no longer human. It had a feral look in its eyes and what seemed like blood on its lips. I spent too much time looking at it, and as a result, it jumped onto me. Now, I was so surprised by that to the point that I dropped my machete and grabbed onto its face as it tried to bite me. After fighting it for a minute, I pulled it into my head in some sort of a head but, causing it to get off of me, and staggered. Now, this amiably made me stagger, too, but I recovered quicker. As soon as I got my bearings back, I unleashed a sidekick into its head, knocking it far enough away to catch my breath as well as pick up my machete.
As it got up, I was already staring it down, making sure to keep an eye on it. A few seconds later, I unleashed a rallying cry and charged at it, catching it off guard with my bold gambit. Slashing at it with my machete, it managed to get out of the way of my admittedly sloppy swing, but it did not dodge the punch that I threw as it got out of that way. It surprised me when it slashed at me with a knife that it must have had on its belt, but I must have gotten lucky as the slash was just as sloppy as mine, which allowed me to parry the slice with my machete. Countering the slice, I was able to get an opening, allowing me to deliver a chop into its stomach. As I was trying to pull it out for another, the thing stabbed me in the lower back just above the kidney.
“God fucking damnit” I shouted as I grabbed the creature's head again and pulled it into my knee. I then kneed it again before slamming its head against the ground. Pulling the machete out of its stomach, I stood over it, the bloody machete in my right hand and my left keeping the knife in my back. The creature soon gave a feral growl and tried to get up and lunge at me. Seeing this, I did one last chop into the back of its neck, putting it down for good.
Modern-day
“And that was the day where I killed for the first time,” I said with a hallowed look in my eyes, hoping to get the memory out of my head. “Now, I wish I did not have to do that, but he left me no choice.”
“What happened next?” Scarlet asked quizzically.
“I will not bore you with the details, but throughout the day and into the night, using my ability to teleport, I was rescuing people in Bozeman. Then, I eventually went into other towns, saving all who I could. But right now, I think we should rest. I will finish the story tomorrow,” I said in finality. Now, Scarlet did not like the answer that I gave her, but she accepted it and volunteered to take the first watch. When she volunteered for it, I was hesitant, but she soon argued that I needed rest after telling her my story all day. “Very well then…” I said hesitantly. “Just wake me up in a few hours, Ok?” she nodded, and I settled in for a restless sleep…
One Day until Capitol Ship Montana Leaves…
