The firefight that had raged on with the watchers and the large number of zombies had subsided, what remained of them retreated while hundreds of them littered the streets in death.
The watcher that was captured, hands tied behind his back, head looking down towards the pool of blood surrounding him.
He appeared as a young male probably in his 20's jet black hair, he carried a M16 but it had been damaged when he was thrown by the behemoth. his apparel was dark track pants, and the custom "Watcher" armor.
Every member of DUSK was in the courtyard, talking amongst themselves, eating, waiting to see what would happen to their prisoner. In the very center of the huge gathering were the highest ranked DUSK members.
Dice pacing in front of the prisoner, smoking a cigarette drinking a can of beer.
"Oh don't worry, you and i are gonna become best friends" Several settlers in the crowd
**** a laugh or two from Dice's sentence, he looked up where it originated from with a glare, the settler that laughed suddenly grew silent,. "You!" Dice yelled, "Come here".
The settler came forth, very slowly as everybody watched him as he was walking to his own death in a way, as the last person who laughed at Dice he killed on the spot, and really nobody had enough guts to do anything about his actions. "Well, Tyler.. you wanna become a reaper eh? i have another test for you." Tyler approaced Dice as he stood up and gulped.
Looking at Tyler then the prisoner and smiled.
"I want you, to show our new friend here how the reapers welcome
**** who try to kill us. Be creative" Dice smiled at Tyler, he has never smiled to anyone, it was quite a shock he then turned around and went to sit down by Modem.
"Are you feeling ok Dice?" Modem looked concerned, "You have never smiled... why now?"
"I have a good feeling about Tyler, he passed many trails with extraordinary results, he killed Nikki without wearing any sort of armor, only the clothing on his back"
Modems eyes bulged "Now that is impressive..."
"Hell he has even done better than me in many of the trails when i first came here, i am very impressed by him" Dice forced a small smile, it quickly disappeared as fast as it appeared as his eyes were glued on Tyler.
Tyler looked around, seeing everybody was watching him, he wanted to make them proud, prove himself to DUSK that he can be ruthless.
While he was looking around the prisoner finally got to his feet stumbling even though he had suffered severe injuries from the behemoth.
Quickly reacting, Tyler noticed and took action, he wrapped his arms around the prisoners torso, arched his legs, and picked him up, throwing him up over his head then forcing himself backwards towards the ground, still having a tight grip, he brings the prisoner over his head, and into the concrete head first resulting with a sickening snap, the prisoner screamed in pain as the action had severed his spinal cord, paralyzing him.
The entire crowd had gone wild from the action, several cheered while others fired their firearms into the air.
"So i guess you taught him that?"
"Ya, The Suplex, if your unlucky enough, you won't ever walk away from it, nor will you ever walk again" Dice smiled as he threw his cigarette but at the prisoner.
Tyler got to his feet seeing everybody cheering him on, to bring on more pain others chanted louder and louder for Tyler to make his next move.
a great overwhelming feeling overcame Tyler as he looked around, cheered on by his brothers and sisters. He looked at the prisoner and drew his Dusk Enforcer, walked slowly over to him, flipping the gun and grabbing it by the barrel. "You gonna talk???" smashing the handle into the defenseless prisoners skull, as he writhed in more pain.
Again the crowd of settlers grew louder and louder as Tyler repeatedly pummeled the life out of the victim.
Panting somewhat heavily from the beating, he looks up at Dice, who takes his hand , and slides it across his throat, giving him the sign to execute him.
"Well, if your not gonna talk..." Tyler looked at the beaten captive, "And
noting your current state.." He pulled out a single .50 round and put it into the chamber "I guess were gonna have to find someone who is willing to talk.
Tyler knelt by the almost dead Watcher, who was weeping and crying silently as Tyler spun the chamber of his Dusk Enforcer, and placed the barrel to his temple.
The crowd had grown to the point where it echoed inside Tylers head, this is what he wanted, to be recognized of his potentials, he grinned as he slightly squeezed the trigger and closed his eyes.
"Tyler Stop!" A voice came from within the crowd and everybody grew silent, several settlers were moving towards the center where Tyler and the captive sat, as more moved out of the way.
Tyler opened his eyes and pulled the gun away and stood up.
Out of the crowd of settlers stood Crazy as he approached Tyler and the captive, walking up to Tyler and putting his hand on his shoulder. "Let him talk."
Dice had become annoyed by Crazy's interference and stood up and walked to the two of them.
"Crazy what the
**** are you doing, the kids in the middle of doing something let-"
Crazy's facial expression suddenly turned from calm to an angry and annoyed gesture, he turned to face Dice
"Still your tongue.. Dice!" Crazy yelled as he got right up in Dice's face, eying him down, the crowd grew dead silent.
"If you EVER, approach me with hostility like that gain, Dice, your gone. Were all that you have left. your already on your last string,
DO NOT blow that chance. This guy may be our only chance to find out why Crynsos is sending these watchers after us."
Dice remained silent as Crazy continued, trying to keep his anger at a minimum. "Sometimes.. i regret me and Flynn making you a Reaper Dice... you were never like this before.. The killing of your own kind has become the only thing you know, lost in rage.. lust for blood of your enemies." Crazy looked down a bit with a sad look on his face then right back at Dice "But Once more" Crazy barked "You will be stripped of your rank, your weapons, everything, and you will be gone, DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR"
even Modem was shocked, nobody had ever seen Crazy break in an uproar like this before.
Dice kept eying Crazy down, then looking down at his armor he notices the Draconis symbol engraved on the left shoulder and the center chest graving.
"Do i make myself clear?"
"Yes sir..." Dice growled as his eyes went back up to eye level, eying Crazy down as he started to walk away, he exited the gathering and went to the Reapers quarters.
"Now" Crazy approached Tyler once more.
"Get some rest Tyler, your gonna need it" Crazy patted Tyler on the shoulder and crouched by the forgotten prisoner, he smiled.
"Ok, lets talk"
