《Peacekeepers (COMPLETE)》40

*Nick, you sure you're ready for this?* I smiled and took a puff of my cigarette, *You got no faith, Rollins* *The US is in panic mode, Nick.* I waved and exhaled out a ring at him, *Yeah, yeah. Doom and gloom.* I leaned out the window. People ran around killing each other, setting fires, it's an anarchist's dream.
*What happened to everyone, Rollins?*
*Whatever it is, it's everywhere, kid.*
The pilot, Hart, yelled as we heard pinging, *We're trying to help these people and they're shooting at us!?* An explosion came from above us as we dipped, *We're falling boys! Strap in now!*
I strapped in as we fell and spun slow. Rollins yelled as I put my arms up and woo'd to a laugh. *That ain't funny!* We bumped into something before slamming onto a rooftop. I slid open one of the doors as the pilot hopped out.
*How far is the safehouse?*
Rollins stepped down, *Relax Nick. We'll get em' out.* Hart pointed out a couple blocks, *It's there. Hope that shotgun works.* I loaded in a box and cocked a shell in, "Oh yeah, it does." I hopped down and followed Rollins down into the streets.
We all jumped as something exploded in the distance and Rollins groaned, *I hope we get to live after going awol.* I stared off and checked a corner, *Fuck em'. Everyone went awol.* Hart spoke on his radio, *Anyone there?* Gunfire came from the other end, *We've been overrun! They took the women and childr-* Feed the flame! Feed i-" I shout, *Hello!?*
The video cuts out, they were in a house next.
*Molly!? Ben?!* Rollins yelled out, *Penelope!* A man turned around, waving a homemade torch at us, *The flame keeper took them! They will be fed to the almighty flame!* I bolted up to him and smacked the torch out his hand, *Where is he?!* He looked up to the ceiling, *The church of the Baker!* Rollins squinted, *What?* I put my shotgun up to his gut and fired a shell.

I jump as he takes a second shot, blowing the man's face open. He stares back at this Rollins guy, like he did in the thumbnail.
*What the hell, Nick?!* I passed him, *The church on Baker street will burn.*
I busted into the church as a man yelled overhead, "The devil is here!" A woman came up to me, "Here's your divorce, bitch." I cocked my shotgun and shot her, twice.
I gasp, covering my mouth. No fucking way.
They quickly pulled out guns as Rollins caught up. "Kill the Demons!" I smiled wide as I ran up the steps, shooting anyone who got in my way. *Nick! Stop!* I ignored Rollins and kept pushing. Someone had the gall to charge at me. I ran the barrel up into his gut and kept firing until he fell to the ground. I tilted my head and laughed at him, *Worshiping fire?!*
I turned and went up to the upper balcony. *Kill him now!* The two guards missed their shots before I killed them both. The priest tried to jump off, but I pulled him back by his arm and threw him on the ground. *You don't get to please your god.* *You're wrong!* I smiled and dropped my shotgun, *Oh really?* I cracked my knuckles and grabbed him by his head.
Rollins yelled when he saw me, *Nick!* He lifted up the beam off my legs as I scooted them out. *I can't feel them!* He picked me up as the church's walls and ceiling burned. *What did you do, Garvey?!* *I-I can't remember. Why?* I saw her, *Molly!? Molly!*

Meeting myself
Canceled (This was my first attempt at a story and while I really enjoyed it, I lost track of the thread of the story. The MC was too op, and except for some fun slice of life moments it just wasn't a very good plot. Anyway, I may come back and re-write this in the future because I really enjoyed the premise, but for now don't expect updates.)I've never met Karma; or at least I think I haven't. Hope, really, because I'm pretty sure she hates me. You see, the thing is, I've always hated flying. When you don't wind up getting molested (cavity searched), then your bags get lost, or you spend the entire flight sitting next to a crying baby. This flight was even worse than any of those things. You see, this flight killed me. I won't spoil it, but lets just say, Karma owes me a few explanations. NO ONE, and I mean NO ONE, deserves to die like that. Of course, that wasn't the end of my adventure, far from it. But, you'll just have to read the story to learn about that.(This is a mature fiction, so far their hasn't been anything overtly bad (some minor sexual innuendo and drug use), but their will be plenty of blood, gore, sex, all that good stuff... eventually)
