With my teeth I yanked off the lid then stabbed it into my leg, pushing the button on the back. I felt a surge of energy throughout my body. I wasn't tired anymore. I jumped up, sending the desk flying. I ripped some cables out of the ceiling and metal rods from the chair to make a DIY cast for my busted arm. My heart beated quickly, strength and speed multiplied. I could feel myself grow bigger and some horns started popping out of my head.
No time to think about the horns now. I punched the ground and dropped down to the factory floor below. Red and Blue spun around in the direction of the sudden noises. Gotta make this quick, only got an hour.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Heavy footsteps thundered throughout the floor as they both ran towards me. I noticed Blue tripped over something then suddenly sink into the ground as he struggled. What the heck was that?
Red didn't seem to care and reached me in a matter of seconds. He swung a fist towards my face. I took a step back while leaning backwards and caught his fist with my good hand, finally stopping his hand. A look of shock appeared on his face through the crystal armor. "Huh? How??"
With a wicked grin I grabbed his fist and started hitting it against his face yelling "Why you hitting yourself? Why you hitting yourself? Why you hitting yourself?" while laughing.
He stumbled back a bit, his head shuddered with each blow. He tried grabbing my shoulder but I ducked, still holding his hand as I quickly spun around, yanking his arm over my slouched form and doing a hip throw. I flipped him over myself and onto the ground. I knew Jiu Jitsu would come in handy eventually. I tried punching him but that still hurt. While on the ground, I grabbed him in a head lock with my good arm and squeezed as hard as I could. I could hear cracks forming but he still had both arms free so he punched my head. One of my arms was busy strangling and the other was out of commission so I tried blocking with my new horns. They broke off after a couple of hits.
Crash! Blue broke through the ground he was sinking in then ran towards us. He punched the ground where I laid, choking Red. I let go and rolled away a second before his fist hit my face. I got back on my feet, ready to throw hands when Blue raised his fist, pointing at me.
"He can shoot! Run!" a voice suddenly yelled in my ear. I jumped to the left as crystal chunks were shot at where I stood just a second ago. I got behind a concrete pillar, only to hear blasts shredding it right behind me. I jumped up to the ceiling, ripped off a piece of metal, and then threw it at the opposite side of the factory. The both of them blasted at that spot, shredding the wall. They can shoot those?? No fair.
I quietly swung back to them, from girder to girder,then dropped onto Blue with a kick, making him crash into the ground, leaving a huge impression in the concrete. Red whipped both his arms around, pointing at me as I grabbed Blue, shielding myself from him. The sounds of glass shattering came as he blasted at his friend. He's breaking Blue's armor! The memory of what my Uncle said about cracking walnuts played in my head so I charged forward with my newfound shield. Wham! I hit Red with Blue, knocking him off his feet.
I tossed Blue up, caught his foot, spun around as fast as I could, making Blue float in the air and get dizzy as I yelled "Up, up, and away!" letting him go and sending him crashing through the roof. I looked up, following the trajectory he was going. As Red stood up for round 2, I kicked him a few feet back, confusing him. Crash! Blue fell through the ceiling and right into Red.
They both tried to stand up so I grabbed Blue by one leg again. Boom! I knocked Red into the wall by swinging Blue into him. Red dropped to the floor so I ran over, swinging Blue over head and hitting him into Red. Crash! Bits of Red's and Blue's armor started cracking off. Crash! Crash! Crash! More pieces started falling off the both of them. I kept going again and again and again faster and harder until I felt some warm liquid hit me. I stopped, the splash snapped me out of my blind rage. I touched it and took a look at my hand. Blood…
I looked at the still forms. The crystal armor almost all gone from the both of them. I dropped Blue onto the ground beside his friend. Stumbling backwards in horror, I realized that the both of them weren't moving, their eyes shut. Oh no no no, I didn't mean to. Did I just kill them?
