Nemesis Is Such A Crap

Calian POV

"Look, on the bright side, we're close to the subway station," I tried to lift up the mood and it just almost didn't work. "You're correct, we could go through from the stairs," Jill pushed her short hair back and stretched long and wide. After the many dodges and getting tossed about 30 feet off the ground, I believe stretching would do some good.

"Guys, you there! I think I've got an idea to slow the f*cker down," ah great to hear you Carlos, you should've joined us up here you slacking little- no cursing, no cursing. "I'm listening," we went up the scaffolding stairs up a building with a lot of fire below us, it's getting hot even with my internal air conditioning, sucking up combustion smoke is never healthy.

"Lead him back to the station," Carlos cheerily voiced out and I just want to scream the word 'insane' at him! Does he want to jeopardize our entire effort in getting the train down its tracks! "And lead him right to you," Jill has also showed a baffled expression portraying a perfect face of, 'what's this guy even saying'. "It's okay, just trust me," that really reassured us, Jill looked at me and I just shrugged, I'll have to see what Carlos has in store for our favorite Nemesis.

"I'm getting my lungs checked once we're out of here," I commented drily, swatting the smoke out of my face. "That's the first thing you're checking?" Jill snickered and hid her little mouth behind her hands. "Well, I haven't gotten any bruises and you're, well... you're all tis but a scratch," I motioned my hand up and down on Jill, showcasing her few scratches probably from splinters and some small bruises.

"I'm not the black knight," Jill chuckled and jumped down the platform into another scaffolding section. "You watched Monty Python?" I raised my brows, knowing that 'tis but a scratch' is a long lasting meme from the film, Monty Python and the Holy Grail. "Of course I watched it, don't you?" We went left down to Jim's Crabs, the whole place is in flames, I'm really down for some roasted crabs at the moment.

"Surprisingly, I didn't watch it," that's true, I never did watch Monty Python, and I never will. "Hmm... I can't say if I liked it," Jill, I can't say if anyone even liked it, the reviews on the movie are mixed, with some being very enthusiastic and others, just hated it. "Well, we're only a small distance away from the subway."

"And if we're anymore unlucky, the bastard will just timely show up," Jill, please don't jinx it- Swoosh! Boom! A rocket sped past above our heads and hit point in the rood of the Toy Uncle Store just up the boulevard stairs. The rocket blew up just under the gigantic Charlie bobble head, detaching it down to the ground and is it... rolling towards us?!

"This time, you jinxed it Jill!" I grabbed Jill by her arm and retreated back from the big giant head spinning down towards the donut shop. "I really hate that f*cker!" We crouched under as a giant tentacle attempted to grab us by surprise, it almost worked, but that tentacle is starting to get really annoying.

"Go up, up!" I shouted by Jill's ears and pushed her forward to the steps of the stairs. "Shit!" We raced up as nimble as we could, dodging another rocket launching in between us. "How did so many rockets fit inside the launcher!" That was a purely rhetorical question but if you may, I also wanted to know the answer.

"Based on the sizes of the explosions caused by the rocket, it could be deduced that the ammunition is smaller sized and can be loaded in bulk into a large device," whoa Jill, you could do great as a walking weaponry wiki! "That's all I need to know," I swiftly dodged another rocket which went past right next to me and into the toy store, exploding the insides and shattering the all windows surrounding it.

"This is madness! There! Right!" I led Jill to the right and into the alley way beside the minimart. "Nemesis is such a piece of crap!" I shouted right under my breathe as I kicked open the mesh door and entered the alley with a huge push. "That is an understatement of the century, Calian!" It's not as if I had anymore vocabularies to add up to that, HUH Jill!

"Guys! This way!" Carlos suddenly appeared from around the corner, it's finally time for you to show up! We followed him as he ran away from the alley and into a fueling station, you want us to follow you into a fueling station! this is absolutely bonkers! If even a tiny fleck of fire touched a anything flammable around here, we'd blow up in more than billions of different segments!

Boom! A rocket flew and hit a convenient store across the street. "Come on! Forget about 'im!" Carlos shouted aggressively, taking Jill's attention on Nemesis away and gesturing us into a loading bay behind the subway station. In my final sprint, I managed to see Nemesis in all his menace stepping forcefully on the ground creating cracks on every pace!

Carlos pressed the overhead door closing button and Nemesis is still unfazed and is out to get us. Carlos than intensely raised his assault rifle and started shooting behind the Nemesis. What's he shooting at? I took a clearer look and... so that's what he's going to do! A few more shots punctured the fuel truck on Nemesis' backside and a small speck of light came and soon evolving itself into a miniature sun!

BOOM! The entire tank exploded, hitting Nemesis fully and knocking him towards us. Bang! The door finally closed as a huge dent punched in and we're finally in the clear! "C'mon, let's get out of here," Carlos said tiredly and wryly, taking one last gaze at the huge bulge on the metal door, no doubt shaped after Nemesis.

What's better than to survive and I'm darn glad, we survived the first parts of today.
