Chapter 35 - Tough choices

A 10 minutes earlier

On top of a building, near the police department four hooded figures but, it seems as if no one can see or precive their existence.

They stood in silence until the one in front who seemed like the leader spoke. "Are they in position?" The voice of a man was heard from the hooded figure.

"Yes, boss! The smallest among the group spoke. The voice of a young woman could be heard.

"Good! We can finally get revenge for Fredrick!" The largest among the group said between gritted teeth.

"Look Lazarus, can i call you Lazarus?" Nova asked as she stared at Lazarus, her gaze looking for any signs of falsehoods, in the boy's eyes.

"You can call me whatever you want sweet cheeks." He retorted in a sarcastic tone, as he lay against the back-rest of the chair.

Nova stood up and walked behind Lazarus, but in the next second she grabbed the back of his head and than.

*SLAM!*

The Lazarus's head was slammed into the table, with slightly inhuman force. "Argh! My-"

Before Lazarus could say anything Nova pulled his head back up cause him to look up at her. His silver eyes met her white ones and, as their gaze lingered Lazarus smiled.

"So, you have special eyes aswell too. If i may ask how long did you know i wasn't human?" As he finished his question the officer let go of his hair, to which he let of a small laugh.

"Shut-it you monster! I know you kill Mr Hawkins's son in cool blood after you became this thing, do you deny it?"

Lazarus open his mouth to speak but in the next second he ripped the handcuffs off his arms grabbed Officer Nova and used his body and the table to shield himself and her before.

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM!

3 massive explosions rangout, nearly obliterating the precinct. Which killing a couple of officers and left dozens injured.

Back inside the interrogation room a large gapping whole was left on the side. The room was covered indust and dabry.

3 hooded figure entered the destroying room. One of them held a staff that had a skull at the top of it with a golden ring between the empty sockets where the eyes would be.

He began to chant something under his breath and wispy black smoke left his robe and entered the precinct.

The other second hooded figure held a black book with green engravings along its frame. It opened itself and revealed pages of mystical notes that hummed

As waves of green energy left the pages. The combination of the smoke and energy gave terrifying results.

First the smoke entered the bodies of the dead people which cause their eyes to open and become completely black. Their destroyed husks rose from the ground. To the shock of their colleagues but what spoked them further was thr glowing green energy that covered their bodies and resorted them it to their original states but, it did stop there as their bodies were further enhanced as, their bodies twisted and contoured in odd ways. Their hollow eyes landed on their injured comrades but, instead of helping they attacked.

Some jumped from far distance, some claws and punched on the injured officers and began eating them. Their screams rangout through the halls.

"Thats seems to be enough! Find the son of a bitc-." Before the largest of the hooded figure could speak the sliver table was kicked towards him cause him to skid back slightly.

To the surpuse, of the other two but in the next second the hooded figure with the staff was grabbed by the arm and punched in the face and stomach and the other with the book was kicked into the wall leaving a small indent.

Lazarus rushed towards that was to strike but his punch was caught. As he looked up and saw the largest hooded figure eyes were a feral burgundy color and had disdain inside them.

Lazarus tried to punch his but the hooded figure delivered a devastating kick to his stomach to which the force made him slame into the roof and as he fell his assailant struck him again causing his body to fly backwards into the wall.

"Grrr" Lazarus gritting his teeth as he held his ribs. The large hooded figure rushed and tried to crush Lazarus head with a full wind-up punch.

"Woah!" Lazarus moved his head to the side avoiding the deadly strike, and he used the lightning to coat his body and moved into his blind-spot. Delivering quick strikes to his assailant's liver and ribs.

"Argh!" The hooded man let a grunt filled with pain, but before he could act.

BANG, BANG, BANG!

Three shots from a gun could be head as 2 pierced the hooded figure's chest while yhe last hit Lazarus's on the side.

They looked behind yuem and saw Nova holding her gun which was oozing out of the barrel.

"You two stand down or else I'll continue to empty out there entire magazine!" She roared as her eyes seemed to give of a faint glow.

She had a cut on her forehead that was bleeding, but she ignored it.

"Shut up woman! Who are you to tell me what to do, huh?" The hooded figure let out a roar of anger as he charged at her, but Lazarus pushed her through the broken reflective mirror of the interrogation room which resulted in the hooded man strickinv Lazarus in the chest three times cracking a could of bones before delivering a final strike to his face leaving a huge gass across his forehead.

Lazarus eyes were unfocused as he was seeing doubles. As the hooded assailant delivered a final devastating headbutt which cracked his frontal lube.

Lazarus hesd fell back as he fell unconscious. The hooded man grabbed Lazarus and throw him over his shoulders. "Hay you two get up! Let's go! He exclaimed at the 2 other hooded figures.

"Yeah, yeah, were getting up." Said the one with a staff as he walked over to the one with the book

"That son of a bitch! He broke my ribs!" The exclamed as they held their ribs she opened the book and a green portal opened.

Nova got up from the bump as, she saw the three hooded figures leaving but, before she could follow she heard the sound of screams.

And she had to make a tough decision.
