I get down to the bottom of the stairs and turn and see one of the secondary targets to be eliminated if I can’t get him to come with me on his own. I fly at him and scoop him up. “If you want to live, come with me, otherwise you have to die.”
Apparently, this drug makes people lose their minds because he starts fighting me. I don’t have time for this, so I start reaching in for his heart. I’m not sure exactly what is going on, but I can’t seem to get a good grip on his heart to stop it. This is taking too long. I’ll come back for him later.
One of his friends seems to have changed into a bear and something from inside of the building hits me with some sort of ray. My mind goes a little numb and I must concentrate hard to stay on target. I drop the one I have and make my way down the tracks.
I hear a train coming, and out of dumb luck, I choose the right track to follow.
Some guy with a gun takes a shot at me. Hard to hit what isn’t fully in phase with the world. The bullets fly through me. That should have messed with the guy’s head a little bit. Who knows. I hit the guy and he flies in front of the oncoming train. Opps. At least he isn’t going to be coming after me now.
There is my target. I reach out and grab him, “If you want to live, come with me….”
He sputters something, but I really don’t understand what he is saying. Fine, I don’t have time to play so I start to spin him towards the train that is just starting to slow after pancaking the shooter. As his back starts to brush the train, his brain finally starts working and he says that he wants to live.
“Good choice” I pull him into me and start flying down the tracks as fast as I can.
You know, there is a downside to being fully in the physical world, that’s getting hit. That flying female comes flying down the track and I’m just barely able to dodge her.
I try to out fly her, but she’s faster than I am. She slams into us as I try to roll with her attack.
Damn, she hits hard. If I hadn’t rolled with that, she would have knocked me out.
It takes me a moment to get reorientated after that blow. Of course, Rolly decides to try to brake free of my grasp just about that moment, so, I’m also distracted by that.
Here she comes again, as I roll to try to deflect her punch, Rolly ends up between her and I. She nails him hard. Thanks, that makes it easier for me as he is no longer struggling in my arms.
Time to beat feet.
