When the Weak Go Marching In Part 5
Nekomata’s hesitation to save him was completely understandable yet unwarranted and unprofessional as partners because that's what we are, partners on a team. This is the reason I was so hesitant to assist them as well as become friends with them. Why put myself on the line if they act like this and why become friends with anyone at all if all it's gonna do is hold me back from my goal. It feels so faint and useless, if they can't help me with what I need then-
Yuki screams,
“Fuck off you bitch!”
The train slammed to a halt.
“There's no fucking way you took out Celeste. Your punches do nothing to me!” He says as his face remains bruised and bloodied, “Your ability relies on darkness. You're controlling shadows around us and holding me in place with it.”
He glared with a smirk,
“You shoulda made sure all lights in the subway were on idiot!”
As the train kept passing stations after stations, the lights that were off briefly placed the train in complete darkness, allowing for Yuki to escape from the grip of the shadows. I barely noticed this at all but if his ability relied on shadows and he never made that clear then that's insane how Yuki figured it out while getting pummeled. He clenched his fists and raised the muscular beast into the air.
“Why were you sent here?”
The man remained stagnant in expression as he stared at us.
“Alexander.”
Confusion.
“Alexander is my name. Alexander the Great.”
I lose balance. Another Black Memory.
It felt as if I had spoken with this person as well as the Almagtig person from before. But his name wasn't Almatig, it was Julian!”
“You, weaker one.”
He said as he pointed at me during my piercing headache.
“You and the one who resembles the Neko Spirit. Did you dispose of the Almatig clone?”
I looked back,
“No but we faced off with him.”
“Then who.”
I pointed to the man who stood squared up in front of him.
“Yeahhh Yeahhhh!!!! It was me bitch! I killed the clone!!!”
“I see.”
He looks at Nekomata and I,
“You two will be spared, I doubt you both pose threats to us. The tough guy dies. I was sent to kill the reincarnation but if I kill someone who resembles our top wanted then I'm sure to rise to 5th seat at least!”
As soon aa he finished his declaration, he hastily sped to Yuki.
He punched Yuki and his body slammed into mine with such force it felt as if my ribs were shattered. Painful.
Nekomata jumped in, I had realized how quiet she had been this entire time. Alexander threw a punch of equal strength to what had knocked Yuki back to which Nekomata met with the same force. Alexander looked shocked as the skinny girl matched his strength.
“Nya ha ha!”
She jumped around as if toying with her prey. I was shocked to see this, not only because of the matching force and strength but because I also was able to get a good look at Nekomata's breasts. Yes they did increase in size as well, SoggySockks blessing up! But back on track, the fact that this 5’10” woman was keeping up with a short but intensely strong man was nothing short of nonsensical to me. Until Nekomata announced.
“Nyour problem Alexa, is that mew focus farrrr too much on your punchies!”
She began hopping in place,
“I learnt in physics Mewtons third law was for every action theres an equal and opposite reaction!”
She hopped faster.
“The forces of nyour punchies are impressive Meowster, but the issue relies on nyour force. Mew aren't throwing enough strength behind nyour force to meet me.”
After images.
“I’m too fast for you, meow”
He threw a punch, she met with her own.
“See! Every punch mew throw the force is equal to my kinetic energy! We’re purrfectly meatched.”
Several clashes later you can see the distress on Alexanders face until the speed out classed the brute force and he was brought to his knees.
“Nya ha ha! Winner winner!!”
Yuki got pissed,
“Gato just end it!”
“Nyo nyeed to worry, pretty boy!”
She slit his throat and the fight was over. Gato turned back to normal and fell asleep next to me leaning her head on my shoulder as we all leaned against the empty hallway of a train car. The train began to run as normally as possible but I was still concerned about Celeste and his disappearance. Yuki sighed,.
“I don't apologize, but I don't like how I treated you earlier.”
He reached into his pocket and pulled out a palm sized novel.
“I see you continuing to struggle to ease into this new life, I gave you a phone but staring at it all day is never any good.”
He puts it in my hand,
“I wanna give you this so you can gain a hobby and then forward grow a passion. I personally enjoy cooking but you can also enjoy reading.”
Reading huh, interesting pastime but I can tell Yuki is trying his hardest to make me feel welcome and to an extent, Gato is trying hard to keep me safe and make me comfortable. I appreciate it but even this hobby is a waste of time from gaining my goal.
“Oh yeah also I've read that book so we’re discussing it once this train ride is over.”
Mother fucker.
Well it's not like anything here can bring me my goal anyways. As the train ran and for 20 minutes until our destination, I began to read. I was seriously about to read this.
