" That. Is O'Neil, termination gamer extraordinaire level ranking; thirty two, successful kills; twenty one and specialities; expert at all manner of gun fights. Boss move quickly other players have hit my radar and are closing in" Veronica informed Trenton.
" I think I can handle him" he
" Don't go easy on him Cyber Soldier" His system adviced him adopting the use of the new player names they came up with previously. " he's a master of all manner of hand to hand combat "
" I'll try" he murmured quietly and noticed his assailant narrowing his eyes.
" Cyber soldier? You don't look like you could even kill a cockroach, even in your adorable little suit" O'Neil taunted, his voice betraying his Texan origins " How long do you think you will stay alive right now newbie?" He threw his head back and laughed.
" Better than you that's for sure" Trenton retorted and the atmosphere turned grim.
" Hunter... Thunder... Tear this mother f*cker to shreds he commanded and his robotic dogs lunged forward savagely, however Trenton emitted a powerful shock wave from his suit's Sub reactor sending the rabid robotic beast a couple meters back.
" Got any artilleries" he asked his system.
" Well for our current level we've got only three empty slots for you to create one, though subject to change after frequent upgrades" it replied swiftly.
" Beautiful" he commented sarcastically
" Awaiting commands" she prompted
The dogs on their renewed efforts were only a couple meters away from him when he successfully created his first weapon his much favoured saw- like shield and sledgehammer, one minute it seemed like the dogs were actually going to successfully tear him apart and the next he had his hammerhead slammed hard against one of them in the head and threw his shield at the other symmetrically sawing it into two equal parts.
" Thunder!" He shouted in dismay when he saw the remains of his dogs. "You're literally dead right now" he said with clenched teeth and emerged a revolver from a hatch in his back firing as fast as his robotic fingers could allow, Trenton with the help of his shield which he attracted with a form of a selective magnetic field defended most of these small high-speed projectiles all the while seeking a greater form of protection and retreated to safety backwards until he lost his footing and crashed through a door and fell down the stairs into a darkened part of the building's basement. O'Neil followed him down and turned on his night vision to see in the dark room.
" Cyber Soldier come out come out wherever you are" he said " you can't escape me " he added while making his way cautiously to a light switch and turned it on, suddenly diving for safety as Trent's shield tore through the air of the position he was standing just a few microseconds earlier and stared back at Trenton in disbelief.
" C'mon" Trenton said and activated his suit's helmet, tightened his grip on his hammer and charged at him. He used the hammer for defense rather than attack bidding his time for when O'Neil would make his last mistake subconsciously leaving an opening, which eventually happened after nearly thirty minutes.
He had not seen at first but as a professional gamer he had played enough of games like this to know that he was to be on a look out for one and when he did he utilized it with stone hearted efficiency, slamming his hammer into his solar plexus as hard as he could then landing another low hit across his legs, O'Neil somersaulted from the impact and landed on his back giving Trenton the opportunity of delivering the last ultimate finisher.
" Au-revoir d*ckhead" he said and aiming for the head he dropped to his knees bring the hammer down with a measured swing simultaneously and got bathed in a shower of sparks.
Turning his back on the destroyed Android, he scanned his surroundings taking in the stuff in contained and he glanced past where a bundle of old clothes laid on the floor.
" Is that what I think it was?" he mused and swiftly returned his gaze to that spot using his suit's helmet vision he was able to see through the bundle of linens packed together and spotted a black briefcase underneath.
" Bingo!" He exclaimed.
" We've got company, other termination soldiers are three minutes out" Veronica his system informed him.
" Great that means we've got three minutes to get the hell outta here" he commented dryly and jogged to the basement's exit.
