Russian It? Chapter 15
#24 of Road Rovers
a tragic end...or is it?
The Road Rovers struggled and strained, but there was no way out.
"It looks like we're done for, Rovers," Hunter admitted. "There's no one here to save us. I definitely did not predict this."
"I don't mean to be rude," Colleen chimed in, "but I think you're bloomin' wrong there, Hunter."
Hunter looked around. "What're you talking about?" he asked.
"Hey!" I shouted. "Over here!" There I was: standing in the doorway.
"Jay!" he exclaimed. "How did you know where we were?"
"I just know these things, Hunter," I replied. "It's my job."
Hunter just beamed; as well as the others.
"Alright guys, let's kick some ass!" I ordered.
"Roger that!" Hunter agreed.
The Road Rovers managed to get themselves free and kicked everyone's buns into next week.
Within minutes, all of the enemies were sprawled on the floor. Some were even dog-piled on top of one another.
Parvo stared at his defeat in anger and awe. "How could this have happened? I was so close!"
"Well apparently you weren't close enough," I said, smugly. "As long as I'm here, you're always going to be defeated. No matter what. To the power of the pack!"
I, as well as the Road Rovers, howled towards the ceiling.
"I'll have to take that into consideration." Parvo smiled. "Now!"
Somehow, without any of us noticing, a couple enemies were able to get themselves up and charge at us. They attacked on his order.
A couple piranhas tackled Hunter and Exile, while a couple cano-mutants tackled Colleen and Blitz. Shag hid in a corner and Muzzle couldn't do anything.
According to the situation everyone was in, it looked like I had to save the day.
"Alright, Parvo," I said, "you had your fun. Now let them go!"
"I don't think that's going to happen, maid boy. You're going to see them suffer. And soon, they're going to witness the same thing!"
"What're you talking about?" I demanded.
"They're going to see their beloved hero..." he left his sentence at a cliffhanger.
"They're going to see their beloved hero what!?" I questioned.
"...Die." he muttered.
_Die? Me? I don't think so. This isn't how the story's supposed to end!
_ "I don't think so," I muttered. I charged at him, but one of the ninja dogs caught me within seconds and put me in a chokehold.
"Now, Rovers, this is what happens when you try to be a hero," Parvo sneered.
He looked towards the ninja dog and nodded at him.
The ninja dog tightened his grip around my head.
Oh, God, what's he going to do to me? I tried struggle out of his grasp. I failed.
The ninja dog tightened his grip slightly and choked off my jugular. I couldn't breathe.
Next thing I know...darkness.
"Jay!" Hunter cried, tears brimming.
General Parvo laughed in triumph. "Now, Road Rovers, who wants to be a hero now?"
Everyone was speechless. They couldn't believe what they just saw. They didn't want to believe. This was unreal. This was just a horrible dream. Yes, just a dream. Everyone will wake up in their beds, in their rooms, in either headquarters or at their proper countries, ready for a new mission.
But this was not a dream. This was reality, and they had to face it. I was dead. Nobody's able to save me now. I'm gone. So long, Road Rovers.
