Next post will snap back to the heroes (yes, they still exist). Hopefully after that I can get started on the big awesome fight scenes of awesome.
"Susan, where did you get that knife?"
"Odd you should ask. The battleship, which, I might add, is finished, has a fully functional kitchen. And mind raped cyborgs do not make for good guards in your absence."
"...I'm working on that."
"Right. Well then, if you don't mind I'll be taking revenge now. You know, that whole bit about being a guinea pig for the past dozen years or so, having to clean up my own entrails, and the crappy pay. That, and I have reason to believe you're a necrophiliac."
"And what if I am? you'll stab me anyways."
"Yes, but I'll stab you more."
Nickolai shoved his hands into his pockets.
"Well, that's an excellent plan, but it overlooks a few key things. Foremost among them being that I'm not an idiot, despite my flair for the dramatic." Nick reached around in his pocket a bit before pulling out a small cylinder.
"And as such, while I don't carry backup transmitters on me..." He gave the top of the cylinder three twists, after which it started making noise.
Beep……beep….
"Catch."
With that he ran out the door and closed it behind him; Susan raced to the door but just managed to get slammed in her face by the metal door. Seeing that escape was not an option anymore, she threw the cylinder across the room, kicked over the desk, and hid behind it.
Beep…beep..beep beepbeepbebebeeeeee…..click.
Click?
Susan peered over the desk at the cylinder. It had opened, and a pill rolled out. She didn’t have to guess what it was. Stupid koyabashi maru. It was a oval shape, and there was a rather annoying smiley face on it.
Right then, he’s probably going to vent the air…So that leaves me with a suspicious pill, or dying of suffocation. Her eyes fell on the knife from a bit earlier.
Hmm…Yellow smoke started pouring into the room through a vent on the ceiling.
Yep, knife it is.
Outside the room, Nickolai began to giggle.
George’s life was…odd. He was under permament house arrest due to his mental illness, had ever single bit of mail going between him and normal people monitored, and his inventions were always taken away from him before he could test them. And it was beyond awesome.
((You can start putting together the unfortunate implications for Micheal now. Yes, george is a good guy. This is not the first time Susan has died. Any questions?))
