Soldier of Time

LII: The Hostage (1)

In the building, Hanibal was fleeing from his pursuers, and he had trouble seeing because of the knee that Troy had hit him with. He activated his powers to evade Simon’s shots.

When three guards appeared from a corridor, the murderer threw his knife and rolled onto his back. He reached the other two guards to hit their windpipe before they could react, took the guards’ weapons, and using the power, he prepared to shoot, but before being able to do it, a young woman crossed the wall of that corridor.

Hanibal’s surprise did not let him react with speed and receiving the impact with force. He collided with the opposite wall.

Before being able to raise their weapons, Trixie took him by the chest and raised him off the floor to hold him.

After activating his power, Hanibal saw a blue figure kissing the girl against her will and, without thinking, followed the instruction when Trixie felt Hanibal’s cold lips, she tried to hit him hard in the stomach, but this gave the killer the window to grab her head and knee her nose.

The girl released him and recoiled in pain only to see with one of her eyes as the killer turned on his back and tried to take one of the weapons on the ground.

The young woman began to stand up, holding onto the wall opposite the one that had made the hole, but before realizing she felt Simon’s hands entering through the hole and pushed herself off the wall where she was so that both could re-enter through the hole, and thus avoid the shots of Hanibal.

The murderer fired several times, but when he saw them escape, he imitated them, staggering towards the exit. Trixie, breathing hard, looked into Simon’s eyes, who smiled at her as they got up.

The young blond said as he smiled and started the chase again, “You kissed f*****g Hanibal!”

To which the young woman yelled indignantly and chasing her target, “I’m going to kill that damn worm!”

Steven was talking on the radio when he saw his friend staggering to the getaway vehicle, he tried to go for it, but the Deer was starting to wake up.

“How the f**k are you carrying him?!” Esteban asked, surprised while he continued shooting. “It’s incredible!!”

She looked at him with a smug smile before she said, “Using my power. Now open the door.”

The man obeyed her, and the young woman carrying the Deer threw him on the van as they all prepared to flee. Steven took a radio, but before calling, he watched as Hanibal left the building through a side entrance, guards were close to him, but all were quickly defeated by Sharon, who was moving with an unhealthy speed among those subjects.

Hanibal fell to his knees, unable to get up. Steven and Jack were after him.

Gia threw her waves of force in all directions, driving the officers around. Jack took the almost unconscious Hanibal and began to run to put him in the van, but at that moment, through the same side door where Hanibal got out, Simon and Trixie appeared.

Simon fired twice, but his bullets were stuck in an invisible wall that Carolina created. Gia saw them approach and throwing two powerful slings towards them, and she tried to drive them away. Simon flew backward by the force of the sling, but Trixie evaded all its power by jumping high in the air.

Gia began to aim again to deliver another attack, but a lightning bolt from the top of the building hit her directly in the chest, making her bounce against the van and fall unconscious.

Esteban took her over and put her in the Van while Sharon helped him. Steven looked up and looked at young Jerome, who could barely stand up, leaning out of a window doing his part.

Carolina began to divide her efforts and began to stop the lightning of the young man on the roof and the shots of a Simon who returned to action while she screamed, “You should have killed that damn child!”

Steven getting on, helped Jack to enter the Van while Carolina, already inside, stopped everyone’s attacks, they began to move away, but before they could get a good start, Trixie hit the side of the van with her shoulder making it turn on its axis.

Everyone in the van lost their balance, and Jack grabbed little Rudy’s shoulder and screamed, “So damn useless! Do your thing!!”

Terrified, Rudy watched as Trixie stormed toward them once more. The young woman began to create her mist, but Simon tried to land a shot in her.

The bullet furrowed the sky but crashed into an invisible wall inch from the young woman’s face. She was scared, closed her eyes when she heard Jack scream in her ear.

“Do something already b***h!”

The girl opened her eyes and what she saw was a maddened Trixie who was holding the van in her hands, preventing it from starting.

Carolina tried to expel her with her powers, but Trixie’s strength was such that she resisted the impulse and began to lift the backside of the van. Rudy, completely terrified, saw how Jack got up with his eyes fixed on her, and before he could do anything, the young woman exploded a huge ball of smoke inside the van.

Trixie, who was holding the van tightly, saw the smoke coming out of the interior of the van, and as soon as it reached her, the girl lost all her powers, leaving her weak and releasing the van from her grip.

Steven tried to close the door, but out of nowhere, a Deer that was now awake got up and kicking him on the back made him fall out of the van.

The rest continued as Jack subdued the Deer, and the van sped away. The blow had been strong, and Steven had a hard time getting up.

The fog had disappeared and was beginning to heal when out of nowhere he saw Trixie in front of him, and the girl with a strong punch knocked him out instantly.

Inside the van, a trapped Deer watched the building move away from them. His gaze passed through his captors and saw an unconscious Hanibal resting in the seat in front of him. The Deer season had paid off.

The throbbing of his head was such that he could hear it clearly, his gaze trembling with each resonance, causing the floor to vibrate at the sight of it.

The man looked up and saw an empty chair in front of him and immediately felt the handcuffs in his hands. Steven was a hostage.

By focusing his vision better, he felt the remaining pain of that lunatic’s attack. He looked around him, and the silver and white room left a clear idea in his mind of what was happening.

After who knows how much a door opened behind him, he heard the rapid footsteps of a person followed by the measured and calm footsteps of someone bigger.

In front of him, a young blonde appeared, sat on the empty chair, and without saying words, looked at him.

Her eyes vibrated and seemed to accumulate memories, Steven thought about the questions they would ask him, and he began to draw a smile on his face, only to feel an impact that he frankly did not expect.

The doctor’s head shook like a boxing pear. The pain he felt earlier was strongly replaced by that shock that woke him up completely.

He felt the blood pooling in his mouth, but before he could take another breath, another impact landed on his cheek.

His vision crystallized. For a minute, the whole room seemed to be upside down. The blows were so strong that breathing was now difficult. The young man took a second breath and began to heal immediately. The pain gave way to a slight discomfort that always remained from the healing of his wounds, and everything returned to normal as he watched in front of him how the young blonde gritted her teeth.

She didn’t ask anything. She didn’t seem to want to ask. Her fists were still clenched, and Steven began to wait for the next attack. The girl fired the punch, but a man’s voice sounded behind.

“Karen...” Steven muttered.

The voice was monotonous, and it was clear that those impacts did not bother him, but he wanted to advance with his purpose, and those blows, no matter how satisfactory they were, did not generate any response.

The young man who spoke passed him, when he focused his gaze, he saw that it was Simon.

He looked at him and said with a smile, “Hi Steven, it looks like you got yourself into a predicament.”
