Camp Terror – Wipeout
Erin didn’t care about any stupid laws or rules
that attempted to regulate her powers, she didn’t care how many people she
would have to kill, all she cared about was that she had to rescue her brother.
This thinking radiated out from within her, unnerving Connie, who reluctantly
followed her into the house
Almost immediately after entering the building
through the back door, Erin had impaled the head of an unsuspecting terrorist
and left the bleeding corpse on the floor for Connie to step over before
chasing after Erin who disappeared deeper into the house. Connie gave chase but
quickly lost the blonde haired girl.
Erin meanwhile charged deeper into the house, killing
or incapacitating any terrorists she came across until she finally came across
her family, locked in the kitchen just slightly away from the door down to the
basement. Forming a large sword like spike from her left wrist and then
snapping it off with her right, she then readied her left wrist in such a way
that it allowed her to fire small spikes out at deadly speeds, much like a
bullet from a rifle.
The terrorists, who were up to then completely
unaware of what had happened outside of the house, let alone inside, were taken
completely off guard by Erin’s rush around the corner, with two of the five
falling with spikes in their heads before they even realised what was
happening. The other three moved to combat her, but moved poorly: one of them
ran at her and found himself impaled upon her sword like spike; the second
attempted to grab his gun but end up with a spike attaching his hand to the
wall while Erin jumped over the counter top using her hands as a balance before
swinging her foot around and smashing the terrorist down to the floor with
enough force that his hand actually ripped away from the spike pinning it to
the wall much like removing one page from a stapled bunch, he didn’t get up
again; and then there was only one final man to deal with, who, unfortunately
for Erin, was a lot more calm and collected than his friends and had thus
lunged for Erin’s sister and was currently holding her with a gun to her head.
Meanwhile in the basement, Connor overheard all of
the commotion and so decided that it was time to escape, causing him to begin
absorbing the materials of his metal constraints. This gave him the strength to
break his constraints, which shocked his captor Carl who almost dropped his gun
as he attempted to bring it to aim. However, Connor managed to stand and knock
the gun from Carl’s hands before any bullets could be fired.
Unable to keep up with Connor’s inhumanly quick
movements, Carl was forced to the ground, his nose and right arm broken, his
left hand missing and his mind clear for the first time in a long time.
‘Wait!’
he called as Connor was about to impale him with his metal arm that he had moulded
into a sharp blade like weapon. ‘There is something you should know,’ he
explained.
‘What?’
Connor questioned curiously.
‘Don’t
trust the white haired girl,’ he revealed. ‘This was all done to frame some
woman, her mother-in-law I think.’
‘Explain,’
Connor questioned quickly.
‘If
you want someone to trust you over someone else, then turn them against that
someone,’ Carl described. ‘At least that is how she put it.’
‘Name?’
‘No
idea, all I can remember is white hair,’ Carl sighed sadly before turning
deadly serious; ‘I’ve gone inexcusable things, even if I was under her control.
And what I did to you was horrible and I am so sorry. But now I have to ask you
a favour: Take that blade, and kill me. I can’t live with what I’ve done, even
if it wasn’t really me…at least not completely.’
Connor didn’t say a word, he didn’t know what to
say, he just looked into the man’s eyes and could see that he was being honest,
as such he somewhat emotionlessly swung his blade from behind his shoulder and
down across Carl’s neck, completely separating his head from his shoulders.
Turning from the body, Connor began making his way up the stairs until he came
to the door which was partly open.
Here he saw the standoff between Erin and the
final of the five and quickly realised that the terrorist had Cait. Without
really thinking he just moved up behind the man and pushed the blade of his arm
through the terrorist’s head until it came out of his mouth. The man’s arms
fell limb, thus dropping the gun and releasing Cait, before his body followed
suit.
As the adrenaline began to ware off, Connor fell
to his knees and then to the floor as he fell into the realm of unconsciousness,
Connie finally found them all as Erin embraced her little sister, causing
Connie to run to Connor to ensure that he was still alive.
‘We
have to get him outside now,’ Connie ordered. ‘He won’t last much longer
without medical assistance.’
‘Okay,’
Erin agreed as her adopted dad picked up Cait and tried to get Erin to leave
with him. She told him that they had to go in different directions as the
medical help Connor needed couldn’t be provided by humanity’s current medical
technology. She helped Connie pick him up and then rushed out a different door
to the one that her parents had left through.
