I'm Not A Simp.

The Puppet

Why would Detective cameraman have that? And what did Lucky tell him that connects to that Photo? I myself was gonna pay a visit to Lucky but that's when I heard someone yell into the room, "!sruoh rof parc ruoy gnitropelet neeb ev'I ,erom evah llits uoY," (You still have more, I've been teleporting your crap for hours!)

The flat screened TV man yelled. Then out of nowhere an Astro fell into the base, he was burned but didn't seem to care. Instead he started laughing, "it's too late, we know where you all are."

The Dark TV man was getting ready to kill him but I was a little salty about our last encounter so I shoved him out of the way and killed the Astro myself. It was a quick death, I only kicked him in the head. I sparred the Dark TV man only the faintest glance.

Then shortly after another alarm rang through the building and the door to the entrance opened, "they ruined my fit, screw peace, kill them all." Said our negotiator.

I rushed past him at break neck speed and stopped to see what was happening. It seems that the fighting just started, I was getting ready to join in when the three Skibidi Toilets that went with the negotiator returned. They all landed right in front of me, giving witty lines and finishing off an Astro.

Then they all turned to look at me, "so you're the Simp." Said the one with sunglasses.

"Fighting Titan TV man and living at such a size is definitely aura," said the one in the gas mask.

And the final one, who they call King, simply nodded. They all smiled but it soon faded as we heard the sounds of what could unmistakably be... the Duchess. She hardly landed and we fired everything at her, missiles and bullets.

It didn't faze her, she looked around then after seeing me she smiled. "You remember your play date with that Titan don't you Brownie?"

Then giant smoke appeared, "I'm sorry but it seems that I have become... your DOOM." It was the first time I heard TV man speak clearly and I wish it came from anyone but him.

I was nervous but also confident, I fought him once before and we only stopped fighting due to circumstances. That won't happen again. I flew up towards him and ready to deliver a powerful kick when, "YOU!"

Something slammed into me and we crashed through the side of the Alliance building. I was dazed and confused, my vision wasn't working properly, I started pounding my chest to get some dust particles out.

I heard heavy breathing coming from behind me, when I turned around I saw someone in the air. "AUGHHH!"

He jumped into the air and landed a devastating punch into my stomach. The punch was so powerful that it ripped through the second floor to the main floor and the sheer impact of it made me bounce off the ground for a moment.

My core started to tighten and I found it harder to move my joints, a harsh wheezing came out of me. I struggled to my side and started crawling with my arms, "YOU KILLED MY BROTHER, YOU KILLED MALICE!"

I turned around to be met with a kick coming straight to my face, it was so powerful that it sent me through multiple walls and when I stopped my head caused a dent in the wall. My vision was hazy, I looked up to see two figures but they morphed into one once I collected myself a bit.

I pulled myself off the wall and fell onto one knee, after some stumbling I found my footing. "Malice and the Hunter THATS WHAT THEY CALLED US!"

Who the hell is this guy, "but now it's just the Hunter, because of you."

I was listening, I rushed to kick him in the shins but he raised his leg at a speed I'd never seen and slammed his foot into my knee, nearly ripping it in half. I collapsed to the floor, holding my knee in agony, I wanted to scream. I felt like I heard myself screaming.

But he didn't rest, he didn't gloat, he was simply efficient. He wasted no time to grab my head with one arm and throw me through the wall. When I came out on the other side I were on a bridge.

I felt a seething rage of emotions come over me, that power I felt back then, I could feel it take form once more. The bridge was made out of something transparent, I could see my white camera head turn black and with a red dot appearing underneath.

I felt my leg, which was almost ripped off, snap back into place. Healing almost entirely. I got up with new strength and was ready to face him. When he walked through the hole he just threw me through I wasted no time delivering a kick to the side of his chest.

But to my horror, he didn't move. So I threw another and another, my kicks had started to leave after images but he hardly moved. On the last one he had to take a step back, "neat trick, tell me..." he grabbed me by the foot and slammed me on the bridge.

"IS THAT HOW YOU KILLED MY BROTHER!?" He raised both hands in the air and curled them into fist then in dangerous blow, landed them on my stomach and I smashed through the bridge.

When I collided with the floor, I looked up confused and scared. This form was my strongest and yet I was losing. He jumped down from the bridge, he landed on top of me but not on me. He bent down and grabbed me by the neck, "you won't always win."

He threw a punch right into my camera head, "and I'll make sure you never do."

Another jab right in the camera head, "I'd love to kill you myself, a slow painful death."

Another punch in the same spot, "but I know something far worse."

He smiled after throwing another punch, "It's one thing to die but it's another to be resented."

The next punch broke my camera lens, "I'm going to make you like our other puppet."

He didn't throw a punch this time, instead he grabbed my chest with one hand and started slowly ripping it open. "Fully conscious of your actions but without the ability to stop yourself."

I started clinging and grabbing his hand, trying to make him stop but it was futile. "I'm going to make you just like your dear Titan TV man."

He threw the metal covering my stomach aside, my core was completely exposed. He took out a chip from his waist and slowly moved it towards my core. I started kicking and punching trying to stop him even more so now, but it got me nothing.

When he applied the chip he also let go, and I let out a scream. A real scream, nothing internal, just complete and utter agony. And then I stopped and I realized that I couldn't move my body. I had become a puppet, fully aware but never in control.

"They call you the Astro cameraman, how about you earn the title. Astro cameraman, I want you to kill every member of the Alliance." He said sadistically.

I didn't sign, I simply moved to complete the directive. Against my will. I am now the Astro cameraman...
