Metal kh-vids Solid: The Twin Cynics Pt. 6

Nothing too interesting happening here. But I said I'd have another installment up. So here it is.

.~+~.​

When last we left out hero, SJ had undergone his first round of torture at the...well....hand of DA. CtR had gotten sniped by SA. Libre had bit the dust by SJ switching controller ports IRL. Lastly, LF, SJ's 'twin' had gone to prepare for the launching.

SJ comes to in his cell along with what looks like the body of the Sec. Mod. Arc.

SJ: Looks like I got a roommate. Wonder if he plays cards...

RVR: SJ, you okay?

SJ: Been better.

Mish: How's CtR?

SJ: ...They've got her...and her cookies.

RVR: Damn...the staff has decided not to give into their demands. We're trying to buy some more time as we speak.

SJ: You can do better than that, RVR. You better not be playing dumb again. I'm sorry about CtR but I want the lies to end right now.

RVR: The hell you on about?

SJ: Metal Gear was designed to launch a new type of hacking code wasn't it?

RVR: ...er...

SJ: You knew this all along didn't you?

RVR: .......maybe.

SJ: Why did you try to hide this?

RVR: ....Sorry.

SJ: Can't tell the grunts, huh...Man you've changed. Metal Gear...secret advanced code research. Do the Admins know about this? How deep does this **** go?

RVR: As far as I know, Sara had not been briefed about the Halo Project.

SJ: "Need to know basis" is that it?

RVR: These are cautious times. Even the smallest changes cause a stir with the members. Tomorrow Sara is expected to announce promotions of certain members to staff.

SJ: If the situation is so serious, why not give in? Let them have Deathspank's remains.

RVR: Well...

SJ: You can't?

RVR: .....

SJ: Hell with you. Arc's body is right here next to me. Odd thing is...looks like he's been dead for days. And all of his blood's drained out. I doubt Dracula's been about.

Mish: Maybe...to prevent decay?

SJ: No clue.

Mish: But the mod only died a few hours ago, right?

SJ: Yes. They've got both codes and are almost ready to launch. There's some sort of emergency override device to cancel out the codes.

RVR: Without the three keys, your priority is to destroy Metal Gear. And there is another thing...

SJ: CtR right? I'll get her out...be the hero.

Our hero than gets in contact with Soushirei.

SJ How you doin'?

Soush: Yep...still got the optic camo.

SJ Would you mind doing me a favor?

Soush: Well it's about time. What should I do?

SJ: Well you could get me out of here for starters.

Soush: What cell?

SJ: The one near the big torture machine. Can't miss it.

Soush: Alright, give me a few minutes while I limp over.

While SJ is waiting one of his guards starts complaining about his stomach. The guard grunts a few minutes before he suddenly runs out of sight.

Soush: Hey! I'm here!

Soush deactivates the camo to be seen once again.

SJ: Get me the **** out of here!

Soush: *Takes a look at the door* Looks like you need a key like the goon's carry.

SJ: Then...why are you here?

Soush: *Removes some food items from his coat.* If you need more food, I can bring some more later. Also, I got this level 6 card which you can use to get out the Torture Room.

Soush hears the guard coming and runs off.

Soush: Did you use the ketchup? It took me forever to find that. It's the right color and thickness too. Use it well. (YAY FOR MASSIVE HINTING.)

Sj lies down on the floor of his cell and breaks the bottle below his cell. Causing an exclamtion point to appear about the guard's head.

Guard: What the...?

Once the guard takes the bait, SJ springs into action and takes out the guard. He goes to the torture room to get his gear, ducking behind the torture rig to redress himself.

Soush: So you got the hint.

SJ: I am thoroughly ashamed that that worked.

SS: SJ, there's a bomb planted in your items. Throw it away!

SJ: Who the **** are you?!

SS: You'll find out soon enough.

Snake eventually makes his way outside and gets rid of the bomb as SS warned him.

RVR: Cutting it a smidge close?

SJ: DA...you'll pay for that. That Shikamarus Shadow's a real question mark. He's one of their ranks.

RVR: I don't know. I got a strange feeling

Sj eventually to the area where SA shot CtR. Flashing back on the scene.

SJ: I should have pushed her so hard. It's my fault.

Xaldin: That's not like you, SJ.

RVR: What is it Xal?

Xaldin: Pardon my eavesdropping but I couldn't listen anymore. SJ, you can have regrets if you want to..it's only natural. But you can't attack yourself for things that happened in the past. That road leads to madness, quote me on that one.

Madi: He's right. Don't beat yourself up. It's unbecoming of a legend like you. I'm sure CtR's fine.

RVR: SJ, forget about CtR. Stop Laurence. That's what CtR would want.

Our hero continues on his way running to the top of the Communication Tower. The first door he comes to won't open.

Soush: That door sometimes gets frozen since it's so cold out. It is Alaska. Just use the walkway on the roof since they're both connected.

SJ makes it to the roof of the tower where he attempts to cross the walkway when a barrage of missile fire comes from above, destroying the second tower. Once the smoke clears, the sound of a helicopter is heard.

LF: Shadowjak!! I'm afraid I can't let you continue on your merry little way.

SJ: Laurence.

LF: You're not going any farther. Die!!!

Laurence_Fox seems to have our hero pinned on the communications tower.

SJ:It's a long way down. Maybe I can use that rope I found awhile back.

LF: What are you going to do? Take on a Hind with your bare hands? Now you're mine!

SJ: That's tempting but if I stay here, I'm finished.

A truely epic battle commences with our hero going up against an airborne foe. What will he do? Let's watch.

He gets the bright idea to rappel down the side of the tower with the Hind shooting at him. Suicide for any other man but SJ makes it down.

RVR: Looks like Laurence really wants to have a showdown with you. I'm looking at Madiyasha's images right now.

Mish: He's circling the tower like a vulture.

SJ: You got popcorn to watch the broadcast?

RVR: Wish I could help.

While waiting for the elevator, SJ runs around running into Soushirei.

Soush: hey it's me! Don't shoot!

SJ: How'd you get here?

Soush: I don't like heights but it wasn't as dramatic as your entrance.

SJ: Watching?

Soush: I was riding in the back of the truck. You're incredible like a movie hero or something.

SJ: Not quite. In movies, the hero always saves the girl. I failed miserably.

Soush: SJ, there's something I've got to ask you. It's why I've been following you. Have you ever...loved someone?

SJ: *Stares* That's what you came to ask?

Soush: No...I mean...I was wondering if even soldiers can fall in love.

SJ: You better not be hitting on me.

Soush: NO! I just want to know if love can bloom even on a battlefield?

SJ: Yes...it can. I think at any time, any place, people can fall in love. But...if you love someone, you have to be able to protect them.

Soush: So do I.

SJ: I have a favor to ask. It's an easy one. Get this elevator moving.

Soush: Shouldn't be too hard.

SJ: Time to go swat a fly.

Will SJ swat the annoying fly? Can things get any gayer? Why can't I think of anymore questions? All the answers will come in the next chapter.
