Chapter 15 - Help Me

He punched, I moved and Neo replenished my energy. He got restless and turned his aggressive attacks towards Neo, she screamed and I jumped on his back. He raised his hands to clobber her and I put my hands on his back and erected blades from his body.

He fell to the ground and started bleeding all over. Now that was up close I could see the deep red skin of the man who was twice my height, I saw his eyes dyed gold an evil gold. He was muscular but I used my knowledge of body anatomy to slice up every important part of the human body he had.

I looked up at Neo and she had fallen to the ground on her behind, she seemed like she was about to piss herself. For someone who had seen their father die in front of them, she was needlessly sensitive to this stuff.

She also appeared to be surprised by the fact that my power could manifest itself in someone else's body. I was too but it was not something to marvel at, on second thought, if I could practice this I wouldn't have to go near my enemies. And I would not have to get bloodied every time I fought.

Loud ship engines disturbed me while I was thinking about my new power, we looked up and seemed like reinforcements had arrived for the men in blue. It looked like two ships, across both of them I would imagine was fifty men each.

They underestimated us a bit too much, that is unless they had more of these monsters in there. Something clicked in my head and turned to Neo.

"We need to warn the others." I stood up from the meat pile and jogged past Neo, she put her hand on it sucked out all of its vitality and turned it into dust. Thank god she was not my enemy.

As we made our way forward I realized that the ship was not there so I asked her.

"There were still some people in it so I sent it away." Her voice shook through her answer.

"What about us? Didn't you consider the fact that we might need to escape if we could not stop that thing?" I said as I pointed at the dust on the ground.

"I AM SORRY. I got scared and confused, I just did what I thought was good." She said as she ran off much faster.

"Hey wait up." I also picked up my speed.

Neo crashed into someone and she fell to the ground, I wanted to help her but as soon as I saw who it was I quickly jumped.

...

"TEDDY!" Tsame screamed and jumped onto me as soon as they saw me. I caught them and swung them over to the other side so that they won't hurt Neo who had just fallen.

"Teddy." They called as they lifted their face to look at me.

"Yes."

"I knew it, I like your voice." They smiled.

"HEH!" Neo exclaimed and quickly covered her mouth and looked away.

"I like your voice too."

"Really?"

"Would you let me go if I said yes?"

"NO!" They protested as they buried their head in my chest again. Since our bodies were now this close I could feel an extreme softness. Tsame felt fragile, as if instinct I put my arms around them. It felt just right.

"ROAR!"

A loud roar came from the alley I was just in. I looked behind and there was a gigantic red monster charging at us. I immediately looked at its head and there was a blue skull.

"Perfect," I said to myself. I pulled out the wessons in combined form, they looked like one long double-barrel rifle. I shot the monster dead in the middle of its eyes in one second and it was classified dead in the next.

"What was that?" I asked as I put the gun away.

"It was the monster we just fought, we need to go and help the others." Neo finally said something.

Tsame just turned and looked at me, I could tell right away what they were thinking. They wanted to do anything that I was doing, so if I was not planning on helping they were also not going to do anything.

Neo noticed it too and started calling out to us, "please we need to hurry. Everyone is in danger, if we go now we might make it before they transform."

We looked at her and said nothing, she then looked down and ran by us.

Tsame then glanced at me before going back to what they were doing.

"Are you not going to go help your friends?"

"I will always help Teddy."

"Well I want nothing to do with all of this," I shook them off and started walking forward. After a small delay they followed, their pace dropped by the second until they finally stopped.

I heard sobbing noises coming from behind me, I didn't look and just continued walking.

"Do you plan on leaving me again?"

"No, I thought you that you were going to follow me."

"I don't want to follow you I want to stay with you."

"Huh?"

"I don't want to lose you again, but I also want to save my friends."

"I see, so you want my help?" I stopped and looked back at them.

They quickly buried their face into the huge jersey they had on and whispered, "yes."

"I can't hear you."

"I need you, TEDDY!"

As soon as I heard that, memories of these two filled my head. My heart pounded like never before, I felt my body heat up and like earlier I found myself wanting to embrace her. I guess this is what the elders were talking about when they told me to be careful of mortals.

I accepted Tsame's plea for help, I walked past them and together we made our way back to the main ship, that would probably be overwhelmed already by the officials.
