BXBX NOVEL Chapter 123: Heroine Chapter: As if I would lose! [2/2]
What the hell was that slag saying anyway? Never mind. Then I opened the side door of our car. I could run even faster than most cars ever since I copied Wombat's use of my {Fates}.
"{Carry}, {Hike}."
Before I could jump, the Italian with me suddenly vaulted outside, screaming.
"WEEEE!!!!! I will race you, Rhiannon! Last one pays for dinner!"
Only she would have such a happy face while jumping out of a moving car. Somehow her energy infected me, making me smile with excitement.
"As if I would lose!" I shouted as I joined her.
Even though we were getting out of a moving car, both Jo and I managed to come to a safe stop. I noticed that she was wearing her fox mask, so I quickly put mine on.
'Luckily I kept it on my hip.' I thought in relief.
I had more on me than most people, since my {Fates} were all for pack mules. Or so I thought. The Wombat explained that {Carry} was much more amazing, it defied something called gravity.
Bella explained that gravity was why shit fell when you threw it in the air. Somehow I understood what she meant every time I used my {Fates}.
[Contact! Three police cars and twelve officers. Take them down!] Bella ordered.
Josephine didn't even wait for me and held her thin sword in front of her face. What was she doing? After her short pause, she lunged with a burst of speed so fast I almost missed her.
She wanted to stab a car? Was this bitch crazy?
Before I could warn her, someone else sent us a message.
[Get down.]
Josephine, as if anticipating her sister's voice, suddenly cartwheeled forward without fear. Then I heard a loud bang from somewhere and a bullet suddenly whizzed past me.
'No way!'
The bullet was going to hit Jo! Wouldn't she get shot at this rate? But instead of being injured, I caught a glimpse of the speeding bullet narrowly missing Josephine's limbs as she did acrobatics!
'How?'
On a collision course with one of the police cars, the bullet hit somewhere along the front wheel on the right. Suddenly, as if something had struck the car, its ass jumped to the sky, sending the whole car into the air!
Josephine then moved under the flying car, keeping her body low as she slid across the asphalt. In less than a second, she stabbed the men through the windshield with two quick thrusts.
The polis barely had time to scream as their blood soaked the windshield. Not that it mattered as the car crashed to the ground the next second.
"Fuck me dead," I cursed silently in admiration.
With a smile, Josephine jumped towards the next car. When she landed on its windshield, she buried her weapon into the hood in one swift motion. As she drew her sword, a fountain of gasoline gushed out.
Immediately after, she jumped off the moving car like a fairy dancing in the wind.
The next moment, a bullet ricocheted off the hood of the car, which was leaking fuel. A small spark was enough to ignite the gasoline and turn the car into a ball of fire.
It took less than thirty seconds for the Europeans to kill all those people. I couldn't even move out of shock! And I was on the same side!
Suddenly I noticed a shadow flying over my head. When I looked up, I saw Lilly riding a wave of water toward the last car. Not a heartbeat later, she cut the vehicle cleanly in half with a powerful slash.
"You're all fucking crazy," I muttered in disbelief.
If this continued, I would be left behind! These people were far too powerful! I had to keep up somehow! Frantically, I quickly searched for an enemy.
'Something! Anything! It didn't matter what it was!'
Even though Bella told me that they would not leave me behind, I was still afraid.
My ears heard the sound of rotors screaming loudly. I quickly moved my body in that direction and saw a helicopter descending towards our location.
Knowing that this was my chance, I ran towards it with all my strength.
"{Ascend}." I mumbled.
When I got close enough, I jumped into the sky and ran as if I was on the ground.
{Hike} somehow made me run faster, normally I would hear the wind as it passed. But whenever I used {Hike}, the world was silent, no matter how fast I moved.
{Ascend}, on the other hand, allowed me to walk towards the sky. It allowed my feet to walk on air. At least for a short while.
Not wishing to waste a single second, I ran towards the helicopter with the metal marbles in my hands.
"{Pack}."
The pilot of the chopper got scared as I rushed towards him. Trying to avoid me he made the chopper veer to the left. Not that anything the Bogan did would matter. Like a hunter, I chased after them, throwing my steel balls at the tail rotor.
{Pack} worked really well when I was throwing stuff. The things I used became lighter, but regained their weight as they flew.
The result was like throwing heavy rocks over a cliff. I didn't know why, but they hit way harder.
The balls I was throwing smashed the rotating blades of the tail rotor and sent the helicopter into a tail spin. That would probably be enough, but I figured I could do better.
From the west, I saw more police cars approaching. Instinctively, I leaped onto the helicopter and used {Carry} and {Pack}. Still in the air I dragged the chopper towards the incoming polis and threw the copter with all my might.
"HYAAAAA!!!!!!!"
Like a wobbly Frisbee, my improvised rock missed its target but made a loud boom as it exploded on the ground. My legs suddenly began to cramp in mid-air.
'Ugh, need to get back to the ground. {Ascend} is done...'
I quickly ran towards the ground and did a barrel roll to ease the pain. As I rose, Josephine approached without her mask but with a surprised expression.
"Rhiannon. The way you fight is nuts."
Her sister then added [I agree.]
[10 stars. Most impressive.] the princess praised.
Liv began cheering excitedly [Robyn! Such a feat is worthy of songs!]
While the Brazilian quipped. [Unbelievable.]
Somehow, my heart swelled with pride as they praised me.
'This is not so bad,' I thought to myself.
