Maewynn ran. As fast as his legs good carry him. How did these even happen? He thought, now frightened. "EMPATHY!" He shouted, calling for his friend. A shot fired out, In a split second, Maewynn turned and tapped his Boomsticks together, the bullet flying back into a tree. Another shot rang out, and a cry flew through the night air. "MAE!!!" Maewynn didn't run towards Empathy, but towards the shooter. He pulled out the Banshee and pulled the trigger, knocking trees aside. "Hang on, Em!" Maewynn screamed. " It's almost over!" A bullet flew from the bushes a little ways from him, and hit his right shoulder. Maewynn screamed and hit the ground. He lays there, holding his wound in pain. His mind drifted back...Why was he so foolish?
"We're just going to inject this needle. Since you're numb, You shouldn't feel a thing." That's what they said. The truth was, I felt every bit of pain. "Wait, That hurts. Let me just..." "No, you'll be okay. You're gonna be the first success, remember? Hang in there for us." I decided they knew best. Immortality. What a Concept. " Shit. Dr. Cousins? We have a problem." I have no idea why, but those were words I didn't want to hear. The pain came, a current of electricity, surged through my body. At least, that's what it felt like. It all went silent, every damn thing. Before I could've even braced myself, My mind flashed to her deathbed. No, please. Anything but this. Please, God no. It took me years to forget her. NO! It's all their faults. "LET ME GO! NOW!" My hands are pulsing. I'll hurt them. I swear I will. "You're fine, just calm down. There's nothing wrong." Dr.Cousins said. He's an old man, Gray hair, sharp chin, brown eyes behind glasses, you know the lab-coat type. The pain got worse. I started screaming, the glass in the background shattered. The Scientists covered their ears, before falling to the ground. I took my chance, Running to the door. It was locked. Then...I woke up in a graveyard.
Empathy sat in the forest, holding his chest which was bloody. How did they separate? How did Kjata find them? He killed him. That's what Empathy though at least. With what little strength left, Empathy stood up and held the Boomsticks in his right hand. "Kjata! Come and get it! Come on! That's why you're here, right?" A bullet hit his hand, the boomsticks hitting the ground. "Shit!!!" He said, holding his hand. A tall man in a white jacket, tan baggy pants and black gloves walks out of the brushes and stops ten feet away from Empathy. With a low growl, " Kjata...". Empathy opens his mouth to scream, but the bullet already hit his shoulder, knocking Empathy to the ground. Kjata walks over to his stunned body, standing over him, his barrel aiming down at his frightened face."It's been a while hasn't it?" His shooter says with a smile. Empathy looks up at him, then begins to laugh along. Kjata stops abruptly. " What's so damn funny? Answer me, 'Em'. Yea, I know about Mae, he's out there right there now, crying like a little girl. I'll get him later." Empathy just grins, than laughs even louder. Kjata gets frustrated, unable to see Maewynn behind him holding the Banshee half an inch from his ear. "Hello Kjata." The shooter stops and instantly puts his hands over his ears, Seeing him do this, Maewynn pulls the trigger. Kjata falls forward, hitting the ground. Maewynn stands over his body. Empathy stands up. "How is he still alive and what did he shoot at us?" Before they could answer, Kjata stood up, earplugs falling from his ears. "I came prepared this time." Empathy looked at Maewynn, and they both shrugged. "So, how do we form together again?" Kjata holds up a small pill. "Oh, gotcha." Maewynn pounds with Empathy and they both charge at Kjata. Mae throws a left hook into his gut, which was deflected, As well as Empathy's right foot. Hook after hook and kick after kick = Deflection after deflection, landing only few blows. Maewynn finally pulls out the Banshee and begins to pull the trigger, but Kjata sends a dagger into his wounded shoulder, causing him to drop his weapon.
Empathy stands apart from Kjata, watching closely for his next move. His heart is beating quickly, his vision is growing fuzzy, but he had to save Maewynn. Kjata charges at Empathy, who bides his time before throwing the drumstick towards Kjata, who grabs it and throws it back. Empathy charges as Kjata does so, Tapping the sticks together as the one passes him by. The Wave amplifies to a great length, and knocks Kjata to the ground. Empathy runs by, reaching down and grabs the pill on his way past Kjata. Empathy kicks Kjata in the face once and runs to Maewynn, grabbing his hand and taking the pill. He feels a tingling sensation, in his chest and Maewynn was gone. "M..Mae?" "I'm here, It worked." Empathy smiles, relieved and stands up, holding the Banshee. He walks over to Kjata, Resting the end of the barrel against his shoulder. "Goodbye, K." Empathy says to Kjata. "It was fun in the days of S.B.A, but that changed. See ya." Empathy pulls the trigger, watching blood come from his old partners ears. He kicks Kjata to the ground, face first. Maewynn takes control and picks his Boomsticks up, and walks back through the forest. "You think he'll come back?" Maewynn asks. "Yea, I do." Empathy replies. "I'm pretty sure he will."
