[b]Rook stays behind cover. He tries to peek out of cover, but he can't see clearly because of his helmet. He blind-fires a few shots, all missing. Rook stays silent. Neither mind is arguing. Ion still silent. However, other voices coming from Rook's position can be heard. [/b]
[b][i]"Rook! Left side, watch...[/i][/b]
[b]Gunfire can be heard, the voice is cut off. A memory of Rook's, one of his friends being shot and killed. It was his counterpart trying to control Rook through fear.[/b]
[b]Suddenly Rook jumps from his position. He quickly spots Watcher, he starts firing multiple bullets.[/b]
English
-
[b]The bench provided good cover, most of the bullets being stopped because it was stone Watch fired off three shots, before a bull caught him in the shoulder and he Knelt down [/b]
-
[b]Rook finally gains control of his mind. But it is too late.[/b] "Guess who's back motherf..." [b]He is struck three tines and falls to the ground. The first shot was stopped by his armor. The other two strike him in the lower chest area. Rook lay on the ground. Motinless. Ion was able to talk again[/b] [i]Vital signs are bad. Chances of survival at 4.33%. [/i]
-
[b]He got to his feet, walking to where Rook fell][/b] "Should he even survive? He seems dangerous."
-
[i]I don't know. On one hand, he has control of mind. On the other, this is the closest he will get to losing his mind. There is no tine to help, he'll bleed out before anything would help. I honestly didn't think he would snap. If he survives by some large miracle, he won't be the same. It's up to you, you can end his life, or just walk away. But I can't do anything about it.[/i]
-
[b]The mag dropped to the ground, empty. Watcher slammed in a new mag, taking aim at Rook's head. [/b] "Is it absolutely necessary?"
-
[i]That's up for you to decide. If you think Rook should be ensured death, go ahead. If you don't, well, you can just walk away.[/i] [spoiler]The choice is yours. I don't care what the outcome is. But you can choose whatever.[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Is there any possible way of helping him?? [/spoiler] [b]Watcher placed his finger on the trigger, pulling only slightly so it didn't fire quite yet [/b]
-
[spoiler]If you want to. Go ahead.[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]...[/spoiler] [b]Watcher pulled the trigger and the Bullet flew towards Rook's head [/b]
-
[spoiler]Oh, I meant that if you wanted to try and help Rook you could try. But whatever.[/spoiler] [b]Rook barley moved. The light from his shattered helmet still flickered, but Rook layed dead. [/b]
-
[spoiler]GODDAMMIT [/spoiler] [b]He fired a second round, then a third to insure that the man was dead [/b]
-
[b]The blue light flickered, and shit off. Rook was dead. [/b] [i]Goodbye, friend.[/i] [b]Just then a computer chip popped out of the helmet, the words 'Ion, test 34' written. A note also popped out reading simple words. 'To whoever finds this, keep Ion safe, the only friend I would know for the rest of my life -Rook'[/b]
-
[b]Watcher knelt down, picking out the chip carefully [/b] "Damn..." [b]He entered into a slot on his wrist where there was a data pad.[/b] "Is this Ion?"
-
[b]Ion starts talking again.[/b] [i]Yeah, this is Ion.[/i]
-
"I'm sorry about Rook. Truly."
-
[i]In all honesty, that's the only thing he wanted. He just didn't have the strength to do it.[/i]
-
"IT'S still a shame to see such a... Potential to to waste."
-
[i]Well whos fault is it for not getting medical help? I'm sorry you monumental IDIOT but last time I checked you shot him three times![/i]
-
"What? You never know. What if he became a zombie? We had zombies attack the dojo once."
-
[i]So what? The only thing you wanted to do was brainwash him, instead of trying to hekp him. Let's do some reality check here, I had to watch you shoot my friend in the head three times. [/i]
-
"You always could have logged off or something."
-
[i]Because I didn't know what the hell you were going to do. [/i]
-
"Well you said I had a choice... I chose to kill damnit."
-
[i]Well I'm sorry he prgrammed me to give you that choice. Remember Rook's mental state. He thought death was the only cure for him. There was help, but he wouldn't listen to it.[/i]
-
"See? Then death came. I granted his wish."
