Fan Fiction ❯ Traitor to Unatco ❯ Duel to the Death ( Chapter 9 )

Sorry I haven't been updating, I have been working on my other three stories. Not many reviews though….

**

I quickly grabbed Jet and dove behind a large pillar. "Do you know a way out of here, Jet?"

Jet sighed then said, "No. Sultan when you get a chance steal a canister of Ambrosia and get out of here."

"And you?"

"I'll hold them here and if I have to I'll blow the whole place up!"

"Well that's your choice, just try to stay alive."

"Of course." Jet leaned out and shot a guard. I drew my pistol and slowly started to move to one side of the pillar. I let my shoulder show and moved like I was about to jump out. As the guards prepared to fire I jumped to the other side, fired twice, then rolled behind a cart. Jet leaned out and shot another guard. I pushed the cart while running along side it to stop their bullets. I grabbed a canister of the Ambrosia then ran out a door shooting as I went.

"Good luck Jet."

A ran up a flight of stairs and into a dark room. Only one more floor to go, I thought. Using my thermal vision I shot a hidden guard and got to the bottom of another flight of stairs. I ran up half way then dove to the ground, firing at two guards above me. One of them screamed and fell down the stairs. I jumped up behind the other guard and hit him with my gun, knocking him out. I turned and started shooting at a guard behind me. I felt a burning pain and I looked to my shoulder and it was wet with blood. With the last bullet in my pistol I killed the guard in front of me then loaded a new clip into my gun. I picked up the dead guard's pistol and continued towards the exit. There were three guards nearby hiding behind a window, waiting for me. I ran forward and dove through the glass firing both pistols then rolling and spinning around when I hit the ground. I fired again with both guns. Then threw a grenade I found off of a dead guard down a long and narrow hall. It exploded and I heard a loud scream. The pain in my shoulder was getting worse and I dropped one of my pistols. I searched the guards bodies when I got to the last guard I found a medkit. I didn't have the time to use it now but I could in the plane. The last guard also had a dog tag, Daniel Lee. I had trained with him at the Unatco academy, was I the same classes as him, and worked with me on one mission. Now he was dead. I smiled, I had always hated him. I got up and continued heading for the exit. A guard jumped out in front of me and fired. The bullet hit me in the leg. I aimed and fired my gun.

I had made it to the exit and was about to leave but a dark figure stood in my path. I raised my gun and prepared to fire. The figured drew a long curved sword. I fired two quick shots, the figure easily parried both bullets. I realized I was out of ammo and walked towards. "Smith, I said."

"You didn't think that we would let you leave this easily did you? Unatco knew that you were coming, but I don't care about them. As you must know, I am also augmented. I've been waiting for a good opponent to duel." He raised his sword. "I am disappointed in you Sultan, you leaving Jet to die."

"He's not dead yet, if he was this entire place would be coming down as we speak."

"Your right, he's not dead, yet."

I charged at him with my pistol, he slashed at me. I parried it with my gun but it went flying out of my hands in the process. I parried another blow with my sword's sheath then drew my sword and blocked another of his attacks, he slashed the sword at him. He parried but at the same time I thrust with my sword's sheath hitting him in the stomach and knocking him backwards. I lunged at him with my sword put he ducked and cut at my stomach, trying to cut me in half. I dove over his sword and rolled, spun around while rolling, and parried again. "Not bad Sultan, not bad at all."

I heard a voice inside my head, it was Tong. "Have you recovered a sample yet?"

"Not a good time Tong, call back later." I parried again then held up my sheath to block his thrust some of his sword went into my sheath and I stabbed with my sword. He pulled his sword free and dodged my attack, then tried to slash my hand. I spun around to dodge his attack, then blocked another. I spun around and kept on swinging my sword and sheath at him. He was having a hard time blocking and my sheath hit him in the face, knocking him over. I stabbed at the ground but he rolled out of the way, my sword making only a small cut on the side of his arm.

I heard Jet's voice on a cell phone that Smith had gave me. "Sultan…don't…thin…I…going to…mak…i….ut….blowin..place up….ood..luck Sulta."

"Well Sultan, it sounds like this fight is about to get a lot more interesting." I parried another attack, then the ground started to shake and I heard a tremendous explosion. The ceiling and ground started to crack and the entire facility began to shake. It knocked me backwards and I fell hard onto the ground. I flipped off of the ground and parried one of Smith's attacks then kicked him and hit him with my sword's sheath.

"What do you say we finish this thing fast, Smith?"

"Sounds fine to me."

We started to move faster as we pushed are biomods and bodies to the limit. Are blades spun like they had a mind of their own and every time they hit sparks flew from them. A pillar fell over and crashed to the ground between us. I rolled out of the way and Smith jumped back. Smith jumped over the pillar and stabbed at me, I knocked his sword back and pushed him backwards. I ran towards him and he kicked at me. I ducked and spun my sword over my head then brought it down at him. He parried it but was pushed back. We both charged at each other and slashed. Smith fell to the ground and I fell to my knees his sword had given me a small wound in my stomach. I stood back up and walked over to Smith. He coughed up blood. "There will be more Sultan, there will be more!" With that said he died. He was lying in a pool of blood. I sheathed my sword and picked up my pistol then headed to the elevator with the building falling apart behind me. I loaded a new clip in my gun while the elevator took me back to the surface. It was nighttime and Jock was already there, waiting for me. I got in the helicopter and Jock turned it towards where Tong was. I took out the medkit and got to work on my shoulder.

Three days later-

I had gotten my payment from Tong, $100,000. Jock had left on a mission with JC Denton. There was still no word from Jet. Tong was going to ask me to go on a new assignment but I wasn't really feeling up to it, although my wounds had healed. I hired a pilot named Andrew Harris. I told him to get the chopper ready to go. I got in and we took off. "Where to?" He asked.

"….Anywhere it doesn't matter right now."

"Uhhh, ok but you know your paying for the fuel, right?"

"Shut up and fly." I looked out the window and realized that I hadn't seen daylight in a long time, I sat there watching the sunset. My skin was already pale enough. With some of the money I had bought I got a silk shirt and a black silk cape. I realized that I must look like some kind of vampire probably would scare children away if they saw me. Perfect, I thought to myself then laughed for a long time. Scaring my pilot. I turned and continued to watch the sunset for a long time thinking about everything that had happened and Smiths last words. I was lucky to still be alive. But then again, who knows what life has in store for me next.

End of Part 1

**

Well that's the end but some questions aren't answered like, is Jet alive or dead, will more Unatco soldiers and augmented agents be after Sultan, what did Smith mean by that, what else was on the disk that Sultan had sent to his friend in Germany besides his kill switch code, and why does Sultan like looking like a vampire?! These questions and maybe more will be answered in part 2.
