Chapter 1:
The Tale of a Thousand Lies: Future Arc V2
There in his bed, jason lies to rest for the day when nightmares always bother him, nightmares of souls trying to communicate with him and to take them to heaven pleadingly. Then after a couple of seconds, he woke up screaming in irritation and a bit of fear of what he saw. He didnt even know what to feel with those sould but what came after shook him out of bed. And as all 4 of them all lie on the same room, his parents woke up to his screams.
"What now son?" Dad
"The same dream again maybe?" Mom
"Yes. This has gone on for a couple of days now. Hahh.."
"Ya, how about you get some more sleep. Your still tired arent you?" Jackie said as she woke up as well
"Yes. Maybe i should. But this dream is my prophecy acting up again. Ugh."
"You mean the prophecy of a deserted land with a skeleton burried in it, trying to reach to the top?" Jackie
"Yes. Those guys just wont learn to accept my words even when i did every almost impossible job that i could out there."
"Just.. try your best son. They will eventually listen. In time." His dad said after he sat beside jason in his bed
"And time is not on our side. Hahh."
"What do you mean by that?" Jackie
"My prophecy still hasnt yet said anything else. The gods said that my prohpecy ability will display the most probable future to come, provided that all requirements are set. As well as one way communications from them."
"What are those requirements?" Mom
"I dont quite really understand but it all differs, depending on what kind of future that event might bring. And i dont quite know yet what kind of event my current vision implies."
"On the news, there are only news about politics, drugs, and many other stuff that are stiff currently under investigation. Maybe its just a fluke." Jackie said as she was on her phone by the time she woke up
"Nope. This isnt a fluke and something is up. This is just calm before the storm i believe."
"Alright son. We believe you. Even though its early in the morning and you already had 8 hours of sleep, do you still--" dad
"Nope. I cant sleep now. Not after that, even though my prophecy ability has never yet failed me."
"Ok. We get it. Since everybody is up, i think we should all get to work with our daily duties." His dad said as he stood up
With that, everybody got out of bed and prepared themselves for breakfast before they all went to their respective jobs. His sister was helping with his parents as always while jason was off to the airport, for his flight to manila and to the malacanang.
There at pluto base where construction is still going on for a small interstellar ship, fusing current tevhnology with alien technology from over hundred years ago, for the dream of mankinds first interstellar travel.
"Hey, did you hear about the news? There is a reaper now on earth." One of the crew on the control room talks
"Yeah, i know. And hes mankinds first mutant. Hahh.. what the world has gone to these days."
"I hear that hes been already respected these days by other countries due to his achievements."
"Yes. They did say that on the news where some cities in some countries handed over the key to the city."
"He solved many problems that were requested off of him but there are some that he refuse to solve."
"Really? What is that?"
"I heard that one is about climate change."
"I heard that his powers are lightning and cant do anything about it. Lol."
"What about others?"
"His sister, i heard.. that she controls the elements."
"Really? Why cant they just hire her for that?"
"I hear that shes his sister and she cant control the weather that often." The captain said as he surprises his men
"Captain!"
"At ease."
"What are you doing here so early in the morning sir?"
"Is there even a morning here on pluto?" They smiled as the captain said that
"Sir, can you tell us more? About the reaper?"
"Sure. Other countries are even looking for him either to make him their citizen or to chop him up for experimentation."
"I heard that the black market is now hiding their transactions. Maybe they are going manual."
"Nope. He wont accept jobs that include tapping into communications. He even said to them that order must be preserved as per gods instructions."
"What more order must be preserved if evil shall run free? Right?"
"He doesnt like it, but he said that he is just one person. He cant fight an army with a handicap."
"Handicap? Thats what his powers are for right?"
"Sometimes, with great power comes with great responsibility. Though even i dont understand what the gods are thinking."
"You believe there is one out there?"
"Yes. Im a christian after all."
When they were all smiling, the radar guy missed to see that there was something heading their way.
"Sir! We have a bogey!"
"Talk to me son." The captain said after he walked near the radar boy
"10 or about a 100 meters from us. They are coming! And they are big!"
"Sir. Image identifed from drone satellites. Its the reptiles again!"
"Damn it! Call for an evac! Now! Send me through to earth base now!"
"Yes sir!"
"Those foolish enough to stay with me, your free to do so."
"Sir, we would be glad to do so with you." One of the crew said and the others agreed
With that, evac procedure began for the whole base and the captain was moved by the resolve of his crew.
There at NASA.
"What is it now?" The chief said
"This is captain miller and we would like to request backup immediately!"
"This is chief leonard. Is this the pluto base?"
"Yes. If possible, i would like to request the reapers presence here."
"Can you handle it with a couple of fighters?"
"On this scale, no. Thats why im calling an evac on the base."
"This is bad. Gotta inform the president about this!"
After a few minutes, the phone call finally landed on the presidents desk.
"Hello, this is rey here. Im currently busy with paperwork."
"Sir, this is chief leonard from NASA."
"What is it?"
"May i suggest you turn on the monitor. You will need to see this."
"Ok. This better be good. Its afternoon and i still have a lot of paperwork to do."
"Its bad sir. You will need to--"
"I get it."
Rey then slam down the phone to go to the video conference room, after calling all the members of the government who are available. Knowing plutos time, he sped up and turned on the monitors.
"What is it captain?" Rey said with eagerness
"Sir, im captain miller hale of pluto base. I must request back up from earth right now."
"Why you need back up? Cant you handle it there?"
"No sir."
"Tell me whats coming."
"They have come sir. Those reptiles from a hundred years ago."
"What? There are more of them?"
"That seem so sir. There is a horde of them coming our way."
"Are you sure of this?"
"Yes."
"This is bad."
"Sir, i would request for you to call upon back up right now. We will need it."
"Got it. I will call all our finest there."
"Sir, it would be wise to also call upon him."
"Whose him?"
"The reaper."
"Jason?! No way! Humans handled it a hundred years ago, we can handle it all on our own!"
"Just like with rod mason? Are you kidding sir."
"God damn it! Im not kidding about this! Im never calling him ever! Period! Wait there for back up captain!"
"Wait--" the captain said before rey killed the comms
After that, rey sighed then called all other countries aside from the Philippines in request for back up. After a few minutes, right when the fleet of ships went over pluto base and when the fleet was about to start attacking, the fleet of fighters arrived one by one just in time for the attack.
"I hope god is watching over us. We might really need his help right now." The captain said over the pluto base
There at his home, yet again, jason is sleeping soundly in the middle of the night when his phone rang. After many calls, he still wont answer, because his phone is on silent mode so that he can get a good night sleep from his day without any kind of job. Though after some time later, in the morning now, he finally awoke to find about many missed calls from many governments around the world.
“whoa. I would need to call the government for this.” he said before he called richard
“hello, who is this?”
“hello mr president, it me, jason.”
“what is it jason? Whats the problem? Im still at bed right now.”
“do you have any idea whats going on? My phone has many missed calls right now from other governments.”
“dont know. Probably a prank call.”
“no prank call would ever have about 99 plus missed calls mr president. Can you arrange a call from maybe, one of our allied nations?”
“sure, I can arrange that.”
“ok then. Will call you later for any developments. Please call me also for anything urgent.”
“sure. Bye.”
With that, richard hung up the phone and got himself ready for the day. After a few minutes at the shower and eating breakfast, he then calls the japanese president.
“hello president yamato. I was wondering why you are calling jason many times so early in the morning.”
“hello president richard. It seems that you didn’t receive the news yet, though no worries about it.”
“what? What is happening? What news?”
“im afraid that I cant tell you. Im also under strict orders from other allies. Bye.”
After that call, richard had a suspicion that this might be very important that he called other allied governments with only the same kind of response.
“good day, may I speak with the queen?” richard called the 5th person that he could call before he swore that he will not call again.
After a few minutes, the queen answered the phone.
“hello president richard.”
“hi there my queen, may I--”
“lets skip the pleasantries shall we? As I am the queen, it is now my duty to protect my people as best as I could. So I shall indulge you a secret, is that clear?”
“yes my queen.”
“good.” she said before she explained the whole situation to him.
It was also explained that evac was initiated by the captain and has landed safely somewhere in chinese seas. That currently, as some minutes have already passed since the call from the white house, their forces were at a disadvantage though rey definitely cant accept it due to his pride. Then the other countries agreed to call jason at that moment but he isnt answering any of their calls. Somewhat threatened, rey suddenly decides to point nukes at all countries if they so ever want to call him.
“this is terrible.”
“yes, were currently at a deadlock on what to do. All our forces are now almost been wiped out. And in a matter of minutes, they will be.”
“dont worry my queen, and thank you. I shall call upon jason if he would agree to a secret mission.”
“yes, you do that my boy. Bye.”
After that, richard called jason on what is really happening. Jason then has just finished showering and was about to eat breakfast with the family.
“i see. Let him have his share of humiliation mr president. I think president rey deserves it.”
“seriously? You would sacrifice good men out there?”
“no, I wont. Though as the situation forced my hand, I would have to decline the offer.”
“please recons--”
“what if that idiot would actually launch nukes in all countries? Who is going to defend earth if all forces would be wiped out?” jason said almost angrily
“true. But what about the colonies on the other planets?”
“hmm.. lets see. How about calling the queen again as she will call forth a secret meeting with other presidents to issue a secret evac order for other colonies?”
“oh. That would be good. Sure, I can do that. Though are you really sure you want to do this? All those soldiers would have died in vain.”
“do you also think I like the idea? Im trying to remain calm right now as both me and my sword is tingling very hard.”
“ok then. Let me tell her. You be standby there, we might call you at any time.”
“sure. Bye.”
At the dinner table, jason was eating like he was angry at something.
“why are you eating so fast son? Your still not late you know.”
“i know. Its just. Work.”
“work huh. Can you tell us about it?”
“sure.”
Jason then told his family about the whole thing and his plan.
“just be patient son. We are with you all the way.” his dad said with reassurance
“thanks dad. Though I better get ready for the first wave of the prophecy.”
“this is the prophecy you have always been dreaming about?” jackie
“maybe. Though we must all be ready for whatever may come. Though I may have to tell you guys something which I really would need in this war” jason said before he ate his share of egg
At the pentagon, where the presidents closest aid and the secretary of defense and all others are present
“sir, our force are--”
“i know god damn it!” rey said as he is pissed as hell
“they have an overwhelming number of fighters on their side.”
“as I recall, reptiles can lay as many eggs as they want.”
“shall we now call him sir?”
“not a chance! Our people made him, we can make more.” rey shouted
“but sir, he said that we would need permission from the gods--”
“who cares on what a Filipino said. Hes just low of birth, while we are mighty.” rey said with pride
“so, what do we do now sir?”
“sir, I think that project might be the only way to win this.”
“what do you mean that project?” rey
“i mean.. project chosen one.”
“ah.. we still have that option. Is it ready?”
“yes sir. With your word, they are ready to be deployed. Though there is a bit of a problem.”
“what problem is that?”
“they agreed to join the military and the project but they wont enter mind link.”
“what?!”
“are they serious about it? When the world is at stake already? Gosh.”
”what should we do sir?”
“prepare them for mind link! I don’t care if you should force them or something!” rey said
“you heard it people! We have a go sign for project chosen one. Prepare everything at area 44!” one of the generals said
“they have already prepared everything in the nevada base sir.”
“good. We will win this war even if we will make a contract with the devil.”
“oh. And better contact all other countries to do this too, if we are to stand a chance at them. And tell them that its the only way and if I don’t see their share of mutants, im gonna nuke them within 12 hours.” rey said with seriousness
At the nevada base, in the middle of the desert, was supposed to be an abandoned base which they used for the new project proposed by former CEO of craw industries-- billy craw. There they drove the unwilling subjects for mind link with the minds of criminals of whom were subject to death sentences. Each subject were to be linked with the same sex and with one way connection towards the subjects, so that all the brains energy shall be transferred to the subjects. The subjects were all tranquilized before they were strapped to the chair.
“whats keeping them so long?” rey said eagerly at the monitor at the pentagon
“sir, just calm down and wait. We will have them soon on screen.” his aide said
“i get that but don’t you think that they are taking forever? Our forces there are thinning out of supplies and stamina!”
“sir, they are still prepping the subjects.”
“oh god, help us all.” his aide said as she watched the monitor where their forces are almost losing
“my queen, are you sure about this?” jason said over the monitor
He was being sent to the malacanang to talk with the other countries where they all decided to rely on jason.
“yes boy. We are all prepping a rocket just for you over at japan base.” queen
“wait, do you have a rocket available to launch there?” a president said
“yes. Though its only used for sending satellites out to space.” richard
“ugh.. we will come for you instead, so be ready there jason.” yamato
“sure. Im ready. Do guys have a space suit that I can easily move?”
They were all murmuring as he got a point in all this.
“cant you breath in space?” a president said
“nope. Im not a monster you know.”
“i think we got a solution for that. Our people over at the space center said they have a suit that might fit your needs.” yamato
“nice. I will be waiting.”
“wont you need your sister for this?” richard
“nope. She will be earths last line of defense in case anything goes wrong.”
“oh, I see. Though your sister is all quiet here.” richard
“cause im observing my environment sir. Im careful on what I would say.” jackie
“oh. Alright then. Can we also see what you are seeing right now?” richard
“no. The US president gave us strict orders.” a president said
“he even said to prepare guinie pigs to make another you. The evil bastard.” queen
“dont blame him that much. Under fear and pressure, anyone would make mistakes.” pope
“i already have a chopper heading your way jason. Be ready.” yamato
“ok.”
“good. cause we are so not going to sacrifice our people for this.” a president said
“please also do get ready to activate mutants. I will need help in this fight. We also probably need to activate our own team president richard.”
“really?” richard
“yes. It shows on our satellites that there are also other ships heading in random directions towards earth. Good thing we evacuated all colonies.” yamato
“yes. Good thing indeed.” queen
“though im a little disappointed that this cant be resolved with you alone.” a president said
“nope. I cant just deal with all of them alone. I would obviously need help.”
“then why don’t you also send your sister with you to space?” a president insists
“i think shes ready. To protect earth in case if something might go wrong.” jason said as he smiled at his sister who is very nervous
“alright then. We will trust your judgement on this. We hope you know what you are doing.” queen
“yes, I will trust my judgement on this as I have already seen the prophecy.”
“is your prophecy accurate? Can you also tell the future of the whole human race?” a president said
“not accurate im afraid.”
“alright then.” they all agreed in disappointment
“sir, a chopper has landed on the front yard of the malacanang.” a body guard said to richard
“ok. Good work.” richard said before he faced jason. “your ride is here.”
“good luck and god speed.” queen said to jason before jason saluted
Jason then rode the chopper to japan’s space base for a few hours, after the chopper had a refuel of their fuel tanks. In the meantime, they all made an announcement, each preseident in each country that the reaper has gone to space and of an upcoming danger from space which is all over the whole solar system. Also with each military activating mutant genes in many volunteers, as well as warning them that the survival rate would only be 10-20% if they are chosen.
"Its really better if i wait for the others." Jason said as he is now trying the suit in the japan space center
The space suit was made with the design input of the earlier armor designs of rod mason in his golden age for rescue. It was now fitted with 2 oxygen tanks at the back which is connected to the helmet.
"Even so, we must get there as quickly as possible. We will send reinforcements later once we finish with the mind link." Yamato said as he is waiting as well in the fitting room
"I get your point. But isnt it really too early?"
"Nothing is too early. Our men is also suffering there in outer space while waiting for your arrival. I dont care if i might piss off the US president, all i care is my position and my men out there."
"Ah. Pride. Oh well."
"If you get it then dont argue."
"Im not arguing. Im just asking. Though this is tight."
"Please bear with us. We didnt have enough time to adjust the size." One of the scientists said
"If it fits, its fine by me. Did you make it stretchable?"
"Yes. To a certain degree. Though the backpack and the warmers will keep you warm."
"I see. Thanks. How long does the battery last?"
"3-4 hours maybe. Depending on how you will use it."
"Good. Depending how how hard their armors are, i might need that long to cut it."
"Seriously?" They all said while others gulped
"Yes. If their ships are all warships that is."
"Enough chatter. We must get you there as soon as possible!" Yamato
"How good might you be if you cant defeat them huh?" One of the scientsist were sarcastic
"Shush. Were even glad we have the help of the gods with this!" Yamato
"Haha. Its alright. Im used to the sarcasm by now. But do note that my power is lightning, i havent even tried it in outer space yet."
"I see. Outer space has lesser atoms for you to use for friction. Of course!" One of them said
"Yes. In any case, im done changing. Shall we go?" Jason said while holding the helmet in his hand.
"Yes. And dont forget about your other members on the team. We all had an agreement before this mission started right?" Yamato
"Ah, yes. Astronaughts who shall help me. Thanks." Jason said as he shook hands with them out the door
they then started the countdown for the launch. Jason and his team of 2 japanese men, all strapped into their chairs, ready for take off.
"Start launch in 3.. 2.. 1.." said in the control room
With that, the rocket launched towards space where the next squadron of of fighters are waiting for them.
"What?! Who permitted the launch?!" Rey said, furiously at the pentagon
"We did." The queen said over the monitor
"Why did you agree?" Rey said holding his anger
"Just look at all our forces there. They are all outnumbered 10 to 1!" A president said
"Yes. We also agree. Even if our loyalty lies with you, i just cant stand as our men get slaughtered out there!" Yamato said
"Damn it. Its so damn humiliating asking for just a Filipino for help when their country is just--"
"Small? In war, there are no big or small president rey. We are at war now."
"Tch. Your right. Damn it." Rey said as he watched the monitors
After a few hours, The situation is now grim as fighters have now lost almost all their fuel, as all of them are all in a dog fight with the enemy that they cant even put a dent in their ships, all except their fighters.
"Command! Where is my back up!?" Captain miller shouted over the comms as they are all now on their last line of defense
"Wait until they are there captain."
"Just when will i ever expect the stinkin president to ever let this reaper come here?!"
"Thats the good news i think. They are now sending him there, regardless of what may happen."
"Good! Cause we will need all the help that we can get in this fight!"
"What are they suppose to be after and why are they doing this captain?" A crew member said before he shot a reptile
During the call, the captain was hiding on the control room where they baricaded themselves and in their specialized space suits, fighting off invading reptiles from ever entering the control room.
"Captain, we cant hold them off much longer!"
"At this rate, we would have to go hand to hand with them. We wont even win!"
"I heard they are after our resources and all our meat. Thats what my grandpa always used to say"
"In any case, we really need back up right now and they are coming. Thats what counts." The captain said as he was shooting
Their weapons as they were fighting were MKs and many other varieties as their budget was tight, including laser weapons powered by the iron heart. Then after a few minutes later, they finally arrive, the next batch of back up, where jason wasnt feeling so good.
"I told you to only drink. You just had to eat."
"What can i do. I was hungry so i just ate a bit. And i feel a bit dizzy by the way." Jsaon
"Hahh.. tourists."
"Cant help it right? He doesnt have any space flight training and hes the first tourist to ever venture here."
"Your right. Though looks like we cant rest just yet. Look."
"Oh boy. This is gonna be tough." Jason said as they watched the warship of the reptiles overhead them
"I estimate the size of the warship to be planet sized. Control, can you see what we are seeing?"
"Yes. We see. Now hurry up and let him out."
"Roger that. Your cue jason."
"Yes. I would need to convert all this negative something in my body to power first so that i might feel better." Jason said as he unstrapped his seatbelt and gone towards the back of the ship where the pressurized hatch is.
"Good luck out there." His team said
"You can count on it." Jason said with a thunbs up
Jason then goes out where he goes near a hundred meters from under a ship.
"Whew. That is one big ship." Jason
As one ship was about to shoot their lasers at jason, he gathered all the particles available in space over a hundred kilometers and pointed his sword towards the ship.
"Maximum output! Overdrive!" Jason said before his sword transformed into a lightning rod like electric cannon.
As jason was still charging, the lasers all fired at him in unison where it was deflected, because of all the friction being made by the surrounding atoms. Instead, it made even more energy causing a chain reaction of all the atoms over a hundred more kilometers. As he cannon is done charging, jason fired on the ship at the center first which made a very huge hole at that ship. As the blast was continuous for about a few minutes, he dragged the giant laser blast around all the ships, ripping through them like a knife. After a minute of the blast, there were still a bit of friction and sparks everywhere where it can be seen by earths telescopes and it baffled the world as they were also watching. Jason then subsided the sparks flying all over and hurriedly flew towards his ship which was waiting for him quite a distance away.
"Whew.. glad this ship is shock proof."
"Nope, its not. In any case, im glad we shut down our systems just like what was planned before."
"Hope hes ok. That was quite the blast there."
"Yes. If we weremt wearing our shades, it would have left us blinded. Which reminds me, is he blinded after all of that?"
"Maybe. He said this is going to be tough. Yet he chopped those ships like paper."
"This is jason to ship and control, do you read me?" Jason said as he is now visible at a distance
"We hear you jason. Glad to have you on our side." Control
"All in the days work. Though i would like to say, thats just a wound at their ship. I cant chop the damn thing to two!" Jason
"What?!"
"Its settled then. Its planet size and a warship. Im still thinking of that blast and it left us shocked." Control
"Is that really your full power?"
"Fine. I will tell you guys this once. My full power is 10 million volts. Plus my partner here, its 15." Jason said as he nears the hatch
"Ok then. Opening hatch. So what was all that power then?"
"I just made all of the atoms in the surroundings of about maybe a hundred kilometers, act with friction with each other before i had them subsided."
"All that power and you cant destroy all of them?" Control
"Yes. Dont forget, there are still more of them and im this tired. Just enough for anyone to imprison me." Jason said as he buckled on his seat
"Seriously?!" Rey butted in
"I will have you know that 10 million volts is too much for anything on earth or anything that we can make." Control
"Damn it."
"You know, the world is listening." Control
"Oh. Sorry about that." Rey
"Hahh.. just how much does that man like to have me as a threat. Anyways, lets all go to pluto base." Jason said doing a face palm
"As soon as the systems are back online, we will go there."
"Good. Leave as soon as you have systems back online. For now, rest jason." Control
"I will have anyone know that getting my blood now would only leave me more tired, thus--" jason added
"No one is gonna do that here! Dont worry!" One of his team members said
"Just saying. Since a certain president really wants my guts so badly. Gosh."
"Enough. Rest now. The world is seriously listening to our conversation and the people wont accept no as an answer." Control
"Ok then." Jason said before he goes to a bit of sleep
After a few minutes of waiting, they then went to the pluto base where it is still being ravaged by reptiles. Back on earth, they finally finished with mind linking at least some of the volunteers with criminals on death sentence and finished activating their mutant genes.
"Whoa. Is this the full power of the reaper?"
"Yeah. I think it is."
"To think that it just left a dent on those things. Just how badly is help needed there?"
"Cant he just take care of it himself if he has all that power right?"
"He said that hes tired. Lol"
"He also dmsaid he can just dent it. He might just have enough power as us."
"Maybe. Maybe not. Though its clear that he needs our help."
"Yeah. If only the fight was here, i would have made a whooping out of it."
"Yes. With our powers, i think that the fight can only be made here."
"Thats enough chatter guys. Time to fly." Says the silhouette of someone very familiar
"Yes sir." Says all of them
They were all both nervous and anxious as what might happen to them out in space. There at NASAs space center, where they hurried up prepping the rocket, the new mutants along with 2 astronaughts all strapped in as they went to count down.
"Launching in 3.. 2.. 1.. lift off."
With that, they are now off to space, mutants which represent each country.
"Are we there yet by the way?" Jason said as hes holding space rations so that he could eat
"No. Maybe just a little longer. You can already see the fighting from up here right?"
"Yes, but we have to stop them as soon as possible right?" Jason said as he was eating
"Yes. Your backpack is still refilling its gas reserves while we are almost out of gas."
"Hahh.. fine. Dont you guys have ion drive ready yet? That uses plasma or electricity i think."
"No. The ones that we always use mostly use fuel. Ion drive is still being researched."
"I see. As im now finished eating, i can just drag the ship towards the base though."
"You can do that?!"
"Yes."
"Why didnt you say so? Lets do it!"
"Ok then. Please buckle up for the ride." Jason said as he gets his helmet
"Let us help you also with the suit up."
"Thanks."
They then helped jason put on his suit before he goes out from the hatch. Jason then flew at some distance where he deployed his electromagnetic shield so that he could fly without the use of the gas on his back and dragged the ship along with him. They travelled under the planet so to avoid detection, and landed the ship on the hangar which was filled with reptiles. And there, jason once again made friction with the atoms so that he can made loghtning and struck all the reptiles in the hangar.
"Guys, your on your own for now." Jason said as he floats at space
"Same to you jason. Kick some ass while your there. While we wait here."
"How about rendezvous with the guys at the control tower? Check if anyone inside is still alive?"
"Yes, we could do that. But can we win?"
"Let your bullets do the talking gentlemen. If you will excuse me, i ve got some reptiles to fry." Jason said over the comms
"Good luck jason."
With that, jason put his backpack to use and flew towards the fray of fighters while his other teammates puts on their customized suits to check on the control room. There in the middle of the fighting zone where all remaining allied fighters were busy protecting thesleves, jason stopped.
"Can you hear me, all remaining fighters, go back and defend the base. This is the reaper speaking."
He repeated what he said for 3 times to hear only static for a few minutes.
"We got you covered here reaper. Blast them to kingdom come!"
"This is captain miller speaking. All of the fighters are there to protect you as your now the last hooe for this base."
"No. Please follow my plan so that none of you wont get hurt. Do you want to go back home alive?" Jason said as he is now surrounded by alien fighters all pointing at him from all sides
"We are all ready to do for our planet reaper. Go ahead and--"
"I wont have that reply captain! Im bringing you guys alive no matter what! Go back now to th base!"
"But--"
But as the captain was to say anything, the fighters fired upon jason only to find sparks all over him to protect him from the lasers, bouncing the lasers to the side where all other fighters were damaged instead. Jason then made an wlectromagnetic blast where he made his own gravity which the other alien fighters wasnt able to escape, instead they had to orbit around his gravity. With his backpack, jason flew towards other parts of the battlefield to carry upon his orbit the other alien fighters. And upon seeing all this, the captain just issued a retreat order instead for all remaining fighters to defend the puto base. After jason was able to have the other alien fighters orbit his very powerful gravity, he then made lightning and hit all the alien fighters, which destroyed all of them. Upon seeing this, the reptiles ship open fire at him with lasers which he avoided all of them before he tried to get back to the pluto base.
"Guys, whats your status?" Jason said as he landed on the hangar
"Control room has been taken back while we have more injured people here."
"Damn it. Can you guys escape from here?"
"We can try. But what are you going to do?"
"I will try to hold them off for as long as i can. Make sure an able pilot can help me escape from here too."
"Got it. Im glad they still even have enough fuel left for a one trip back."
"Good. Cause we will need to hit them hard back on earth."
"Why are we retreating? Cant we--"
"Nope. We cant fend all of them off here. Remember, they are reptiles. They can also heal fast as they can lay eggs."
"Ok then. We will begin evac now."
"Good luck and god speed reaper." Miller
With that, they begin their escape as jason flies again near the base to repeat his strategy again for any fighters. Though as there is an alien ship right above pluto, which is more than its size, he wondering how he could deal with the ships. After a few minutes of fighting intensly against the alien fighters, he grew tired slowly of their continuous attacks at him whether it was alien fighters of the lasers from the alien ships.
"Jason, we are now about to evac the last few people! Quick! Come back here!" Miller said after he finally got through from the jamming caused by electricity all over jason
"Please have a separate fighter or carrier ready for my escape instead. You cant escape while they are here." Jason said after he disabled his gravity and went towards the base
"We cant just leave you behind like that! And no pilot here wants to volunteer to be there for you."
"Damn it. Alright then. Let me have one last shot at their ships first."
"You mean your gonna do that blast again? Which makes you weak after using it?"
"Yes."
"Do what you must then."
After the transmission, he turned around to go back near the ships where he is now in the line if fire from their lasers. But before jason was about to fire his laser cannon, there was an incoming signal.
"This is billy here representing the aliance of mutants from around the world. Can anyone hear me?"
"This is captain miller from pluto base. I would suggest that you turn back as we are retreating from this base."
"Nope. I can handle this all on my own."
After that, transmission was cut off and there was a person who was flying towards jason. That person then got in front of him and pushed jason back.
"Back off kid! I got this!"
"What?!" Jason said as he disabled his gravity
"Cant you hear me kid? Back off." Billy said with a smile
"Damn it! Move aside! This isnt just fun and games!"
"You see. While i was supposed to be in prison, the president wanted to give me a chance, so i volunteered for the program." Billy said with his hands glowing
"What are you getting at? Im busy fighting them right now." Jason pointed to the ships
"You still dont understand do you? Its me jason. I have becone a god!" Billy said while shooting gamma beams at the ships when the ships were about to fire
"Huh? Do i know you from somewhere?"
"Yes. Its me, billy craw! The one whom you humiliated at new york!" Billy said with a glowing body
"Damn it! Why are you here?! Shouldnt you be in prison?!"
"Must i repeat myself again? For the last time, president rey viewed you guys as below us, so he gave me a chance. Me, an american, a chance to become a god! But the only thing is.. i had to go through the same thing as you. Humiliating."
"Hahh.. please tell me your here to help me."
"No. Im a god! Why should i help you! Im helping myself inferior one! Hahaha.. go back to once you came, i will take carr of this."
"Fine. Let me rest a bit back at the base and escape too."
"You do that."
Jason then goes back to the base where the escape vessel was waiting for him.
"It would be a pain to handle all this one by one. I will have do make a huge blast!" Billy said when he looked at the ships
When jason was heading back to the base with low gas, billy then curled up, gathering energy while the ships all try to shoot at him with lasers but only to be absorbed. As he gathered energy, his light grew brighter and brighter until jason noticed it when he was at the base.
"What is he doing out there?" Miller
"Oh no. If i think of it as what it is, then we are in trouble." Jason said while standing on the hangar
"What is it reaper? Is it bad? And who is this billy guy?"
"Sir, status report from the other ship."
"What is it?"
"There are supplies for us but the crew.. are all slaughtered wxcept the pilots."
"What?!" Both of them said as they faced the crewmate
"That guy is a lunatic!"
"Damn it!" Jason said as he begins to run out and fly again using his backpack
"Wait! Where are you going?!" Miller
"Im gonna protect you guys!" Jason said as he flew
As jason flew out of the hangar, he flew right about a hundred kilometers from pluto where he transformed his sword into a shield and light up the space around him with sparks. After a few seconds later, billy gathered enough energy to explode into a supernova where it blew off all the ships back with damage to all their weapons systems below the ships. There near the planet pluto, jason is staggering with defending pluto to not go out of orbit and deflecting all the energies made by the supernova. After 10 minutes of staggering, the supernova subsided as it almost reached the planet of saturn, with its gravitational and gamma waves reaching earth and towards the sun.
"The f***. What is that idiot doing?!" Jason said very angry at billy
With very low gas on his backpack, jason had to rely on his gravity to move, even though hes very tired.
"What the heck are you doing?!" Jason said as he nears him
"You dont question a god mortal." Billy said while his light blinks
It was also clear that he was somewhat tired from the supernova.
"I said. What the heck are you doing?! You could have knocked off all the planets from its course! Including earth!" Jsaon said while pushing billys right arm
"Never touch me mortal. Though i permit you just this once. You have already humiliated me more than enough, and what i do is my decision. My word is law!" Billy said with anger
With his words, he glowed bright even though his face cant be seen with the helmet from the special suit.
"You out of you mind craw? President rey must be an idiot for trusting this guy so much."
"Dont badmouth rey! Hes my friend and ally! You get nothing!"
"Hahh.. fine. Come with me now so that we can save more people and cure you." Jason said as he turned his back to fly back to the base
"You ordering me huh?!"
Jason just ignored him as he flies
"You dare ignore me and order me?! You insolent fool!" Billy said before he let out a gamma blast from his hands to jasons back only to get deflected
Jason noticed this and turned around to starmy alert
"You dare order me around mortal?! Feel my rage you insolent fool!" Billy said before he shot jason again where he guarded with his shield
"Please stop this mr craw! If not, more people would get hurt because of you." Jason said while struggling to shield himself
"No. After what you did to me, i think that you should pay!" Billy said with an evil smile
"Cant you just leave everything in the past?"
"No. Never!"
"Billy! You are no god! Your a mortal like me!"
"I was mortal. Now im immortal!" Billy said as he put more power into his blast
"Cant there be peace between a woodbie god and all mortals?"
"How dare you call me that! Prepare to die!" Billy said as he put all his powers into his blast
"Thats it! I have had it with you!"
Him adding to his list of problems, jason deflected his blast upwards while drawing near to punch him on the face. There was then a fight where they did a brawl, where also jason is winning.
"Enough!" Billy shouted with a blast of gamma radiation all over his surroundings
Good thing that jason was able to shield himself so that he wouldnt be sent away, just pushed back.
"You dare touch me! A god!--"
"Like i said.." jason said as he flew straight to billy to punch him again. "Your not a god. And you talk too much."
When billy was sent flying with jasons punch, he didnt move for a second, but only to be even more angrier than before.
"You want power? I will show it to you!" Billy said as he just sent a blast with his left hand and his right hand gathering energy
"Damn it billy! Stop it or else!" Jason said as he put up his shield
"Or else what? What can little lightning really do to a god?" Billy said with an evil laugh as he gathers even more energy from his right hand.
“tch. This is getting nowhere. Hope you wont regret this petty god!” jason said before he deflected the gamma blast upwards and moved to the left, out of the line of fire from the solar system
Jason then made all the atoms in space around him do friction once more to charge his lightning laser. Then at the spur of the moment, billy got what jason would do and did the same, curled up to gather more energy. Then after a few minutes of recharge, jason and billy both reached the maximum levels of energy stored and blasted each other, without knowing who might be stronger and who will be wiped out.
Back on earth, they saw on live television world wide whats really happening at pluto base, and saw a very big blast that even astronomers were able to see it from their telescopes. The blast also left some interference which the news told the people to wait.
“i-I don’t really know what is going on there at pluto base, but it seems to me like they are fighting each other.” a news anchor commented
“whatever the case, let us wait until the transmission from them comes back online. Let us now review what is really going on.”
“yes. Lets.”
“the presidents around the world have all declared a state of emergency, like the end of the world emergency, to their respective nations telling them that the reptiles have come back and with overwhelming force. As of this morning at 10am american time, it was declared that the satellites all over the globe has spotted these ships(planet sized ships as they call it), reaching our own solar system and will arrive in just maybe 10 earth days.”
“yes allan, and we have received notice that who ever shall volunteer to become like the reaper (a mutant hero), should volunteer at your nearest palace or house of government for debriefing which specially includes those who claim themselves to have special abilities of some sort.”
“so far, we received word that the US, canada, china, india and russia are the only ones who has done immediate actions towards the threat.”
“by making mutants right?”
“they said that its only to activate our mutant genes inside of us.”
“you mean that we have it too?”
“maybe.”
“and earlier, we have also received news that all the colonies in all the planets have safely been evacuated.”
“that only leaves those on pluto I think. What would the world be like now if mutants are always running off on the streets right rachel?”
“yes allan. It would be chaos, and we might need a special task force for it.”
“like what the reaper is doing in many countries?”
“maybe. All his files were classified and we couldn’t even reach the government or the military now.”
“they must all be watching eagerly for news.”
”oh the signal is back on. Let us see and hope for the best. And may I also remind you that this video has no sound at all. Whatever sound it might have for their convo, it would have to wait.”
It was then that they all saw nothing for a couple of minutes, but to finally see the jason lying unconscious.
“who might be the winner of that fight right? It wasn’t a fight that anyone can butt in.”
“yes. It wasn’t. and what was the deal with that wave earlier? It really broke my glasses earlier.”
“it probably just broke only those thin glasses of yours. Haha. Anyways, we have a visual now of the crew of the rescue ship trying to rescue that person lying and carrying him towards the ship.”
“what has the world really become right? And are we ready for the war of our lives?”
The news feed goes on on earth as billions of families and people around the world are now watching what is really going on around the world as riots spread out and chaos all over some places, as some people didn’t even bother hiding as the war is eventually upon them.
“hey jason! Wake up!”
“i think hes alright, just a little bit tired, thats all.”
“you think thats a little bit? Try doing what he did.”
“haha. You know I could never do that.”
“whatever the case, im glad hes alright.” miller
“yes. Hes still just a boy in our eyes and hes all grown up.”
“are you his mom? Haha.”
“in any case, we did search everywhere for this billy craw but to find him nowhere.”
“its good that hes gone. People like that don’t deserve to live. Not after what he has done to the people on board his ship.” miller
“yes. Your right. Though we should really have him wake up before we jump to the next graviton. We would need his help in this war.”
“you said it. We might not be here now if it werent for jason.”
“so this is the reaper, jason. I wonder why they call him that though.” miller
“because he kills bad guys?”
“maybe. In any case, he didn’t have any external injuries of any sort. Just fatigue.”
“just fatigue huh. I still remember my work way back--”
“oh just save it.”
After a few hours of sleep, jason finally woke up with a headache.
“ugh.. did I win?”
“yes, you did. Some parts of your suit was destroyed but at least your helmet is intact.”
“i must go to earth right now to--” jason said as he was about to stand up
“whoa there. I get your point but your body still needs rest. For now, let me help you to your chair.”
“yes, we havent got much time left before they arrive.”
“did you guys hear all our conversation?” jason
“yes, some were a bit static but most were audible.” miller said as he appeared from the hatch
“good. Cause I think its very important right now to prove my innocence.”
“we also did picture the crime scene before we left it back at pluto.”
“hahh.. pluto, I will miss you.”
“haha. Stop it.”
“im serious, all our hard work and all for naught.”
“dont worry fellas, because jason here is gonna win us this war. Right?” miller
“right. Though its gonna be a pain and very difficult, its doable.” jason said as he was being strapped to his chair
“what? Your saying that we have a chance at losing at this rate?”
“yes we have. And one possibility of us losing is with people like billy there.”
“damn it. When I heard about president rey, I just cant believe--”
“say no more. All will be clear once we get back to earth.” miller
“yes, justice will be served.”
“in any case, is the graviton now running?”
“yes. I had every graviton on lock down and to spin for a couple of minutes. If we want to jump, now is our time.” miller
With the graviton spinning with its electromagnetic gravity, they then started the countdown and set their coordinates for earth, before they went along the gravitational turns of the graviton to have their ship jump towards the next relay ship or the next graviton waiting for them.
