Chapter 44: Break Away
Jacob: "(coughing) I'm definitely not seeing the light."
Jacob, Shoma, Randy, Lariat, Connor, Kyle, Tori, and Dante are surrounded by another dozen.
Shoma: "Trust me, you don't want to see the light."
Randy summons Osiris.
Randy: "Really?"
Lucas: "At least where we're from, it sucks."
Randy hops onto Osiris's back.
Lariat: "Well, then we're not dying."
The archers ready their bows.
Kyle: "I like the way you talk!"
The soldiers close in.
Osiris: "Don't let it get-"
Connor is zipping around the soldiers.
Connor: "IT'S ALREADY IN MY HEAD!!!!"
Tori: "(sighing) Great."
Dante changes to a snake and slithers into a hole.
Dante: "You guys take care of finding the weakness!"
Shoma and Jacob defend against two attacks.
Jacob: "(struggling) If my arms don't turn into jelly by then!"
The two jump back since the force the enemies put into their punches could shatter a normal person's arm.
Lariat: "Huh?"
Connor gets bashed in the face mid attack, causing a major nosebleed.
Connor: "What the hell?!"
Randy and Osiris get hit in the guts with one punch.
Osiris: "(coughing) What's going on?"
They're locked in a bad situation.
Meanwhile...
The boy with the platinum hair and dragon scale is sitting beside a barren road.
Boy: "Nice and peaceful..."
A strange feeling tingles throughout his body.
Boy: "I missed the feeling of-"
His body forces him to stand.
Boy: "Wh-What's my body doing?!"
His body forces him to turn towards a scuffle going on in the distance.
Boy: "Seriously? It's already over?"
He rushes towards the scuffle as long, metal claws extends from his armguards.
Boy: "I just hope it's one of the others."
Meanwhile...
Jacob: "(in pain) Oof..."
The heroes are getting massacred by the enemy.
Tori: "(verge of crying) They're like metal boulders."
Jacob's armor is beginning to seemingly rip from the chest outwards.
Connor: "(coughing) And we still have no clue about what's their weakness."
Randy is sent flying off Osiris in a single punch to the ribs, with him feeling a rib crack.
Osiris: "Randy!"
Lariat has blood in his eye.
Lariat: "(bleeding) Where is it?"
Little do they know, the sun is hiding the weakness based on their angle.
Dante: "(weakly) Hold... on..."
Dante however, can see a faint mark at the back of one's neck, but he's taken the worst beating after being yanked out of the ground.
Shoma: "(deep breath) We're just not seeing it."
Shoma is trying to keep his composure.
Lucas: "It' just bizarre that we haven't found it yet."
Jacob stumbles back onto his feet.
Jacob: "(coughing) Dante?"
Dante is pointing at the back of a soldier's neck.
Dante: "(weakly) There..."
Dante passes out.
Kyle: "(in pain) Where?"
Jacob leaps into the air.
Jacob: "Go for the necks!"
Jacob tosses his katana straight through a soldier's neck, killing him instantly.
Lariat: "The sun..."
The katana breaks apart into balls of light before reforming in Jacob's hand.
Randy: "(in pain) Neat."
They may know what to hit, but they're badly injured and their closing in.
Connor: "Too late..."
Four soldiers lunge towards Kyle and Tori.
Kyle: "I lived a good life."
Suddenly, white balls of light zip right into the soldier's necks before exploding.
???: "That armor..."
The boy with the scale now has dragon looking limbs and a menacing look in his eyes.
Jacob: "The sixth piece, Jason Velour."
He touches the scale on his neck. returning to his normal attire.
Jason: "Say what now?"
A golden aura forms around him as Connor zips over and picks up Dante.
Shoma: "It's a weird situation."
Jason punches behind him with his claws, skewering another soldier's neck.
Jason: "Listen, I have no idea who any of you are, but he's wearing the Original One's armor."
Connor darts away from the scuffle.
Connor: "I'll be right back."
Before anyone can blink, Connor already returned Dante to base and came back.
Randy: "(coughing) You're with Jake, right?"
Osiris has finally managed to get Randy back onto his back.
Jason: "You guys know Jake and the others?"
Lariat, Kyle, and Tori can't aim with their injuries.
Osiris: "Correct."
Lariat: "(bleeding) Your friends are with us."
The aura glows bright.
Jacob: "Look, my name is Jacob and I've got a very convoluted explanation when we're not on the verge of meeting the guy who had a surplus of cholesterol in the bright light."
The archers are forced to fall back.
Kyle: "(in pain) Wrap this up!"
They awkwardly stumble towards base.
Connor: "You two need help?"
Randy and Osiris are trying to get away as well as a soldier heads for them.
Osiris: "(awkwardly) Yeah..."
Connor smacks a hole in one into the soldier's neck as Shoma stabs another one through the neck.
Lucas: "Come on!"
The remaining heroes leaves as the aura around Jason and Jacob glows bright.
Jacob: "Now we can go all out."
Jason goes full blown dragon after touching the scale.
Jacob/ Jason: "Synergy Attack..."
White balls of light surround all of the enemies.
Jacob/ Jason: "... Future Hope..."
Jason lunges towards two with white light swarming around his claws while Jacob goes for the remaining three with his katana with a gilded light at the edge.
Jacob/ Jason: "... Supernova Style!"
The attacks from both heroes detonate the light and causes them to jolt back to avoid taking damage.
Jacob: "Seems like we're in a very explosive action movie."
The dust settles as the soldiers drop dead.
Jason: "(changing back) Now who are you and where are the others?"
Jacob looks towards base.
Jacob: "Don't worry, I'll definitely make your head explode on the way."
Jacob begins to walk towards base when he takes off his armor.
Jason: "(deep breath) I'll try to keep it under control."
Jason follows...
