The CoDas: Reboot [By Hex]

Chapter 32: Recognition

Both I and the BruteWolf were gazing towards each other as we breathe out puffs of warm air in the cold snow. I began to take everything that I had learned from Zack into account as I ran through all of his lessons in my head. I reassured myself as I raised my hands in front of me and turned them into fists, Remember what Zack said to you, Nathan; Don't just hold back and survive, acknowledge your fears and fight for yourself!

Before I even knew it, the battle had begun. I rushed forward as did the BruteWolf, raising our fists, I leap up as I throw my punch towards its snot. Our right arms cross we both feel the impact of the punches upon our face, it felt like a boulder had been smashed upon my right cheek. There was a wave of force upon impact that didn't just affect me and the BruteWolf but everyone around us as well, feeling pushed back a little from the punch. The BruteWolf becomes dazed as I am thrown back before landing where I initially started, I grunted a little in pain as I looked up at it, fueled with the determination to not just survive but win this fight. The Colorless observers continued cheering with their roars and distorted screeches. It initially seemed that I and the BruteWolf were on equal footing but when I felt the impact of the punch, my opinion changed, it was stronger than me.

I glanced behind me to see that Shiro was glaring around but also paying attention to the fight itself, I had to elongate the time. I looked forward as I charged towards it once more, the BruteWolf did the same as we both clashed with the side of our arms held against each other. I felt a rush of air coming from the clash as I looked up and jumped, headbutting the BruteWolf. It screeched as it grabbed me by the arm and threw me towards the ground, a surge of pain from the impact flew across my nervous system as the concrete floor began to crack.

Soon after, it stomped on my back as I broke through the floor and onto the lower levels along with the BruteWolf, another pain that of a boulder was felt upon my back in that moment. My mind was in shock as I mistook myself as dead. If I had bones they would have been completely crushed. I could hear Shiro shout out for me as I fell into the lower level, I groaned as I tried getting up from where I fell, as a normal human I would've been dead; the feeling of the impact and that thought lingered as I tried to keep my mind in focus. I looked up to see that most of the concrete floor above had been broken open as the Colorless, as well as Shiro, continued to watch.

The BruteWolf jumped down as it growled with a distorted tone, I gritted my teeth as I raised my fist up to my chest once more. I gestured it to come at me, it tilted it's head sideways then went on all fours and charged at me at incredible speed. I pictured a gun in my mind, I needed something light to handle but powerful, a pistol with ESK Bullets. ESK stood for Electric Shock Kickback, they're special bullets the police force and SWAT often used to knock out their targets, I figured if I could make those bullets have a more powerful punch with a lot of energy packed into it then it can do devastating injury to the BruteWolf.

As the BruteWolf got close enough to lash out its fangs, I tried to dash sideways using my electrokinesis which allowed my body to be able to move at a faster rate but not teleport like I once did in my Awakening.

Strangely enough, I haven't found out the reason why I can't teleport using my Electrokinesis ability when I should be able to do so.

Going back to the fight, I raised my right hand and summoned a 55 Mag pistol, it's shape was smooth and fit comfortably in my hand, it didn't feel like a hunk of metal but an extension that allowed me to take down anyone from any distance. I aimed my pistol towards the head of the BruteWolf as I pulled the trigger, the hammer hit the bullet as the recoil was felt throughout the arm. The bullet traveled through the barrel in great speed as flashes of flame and electricity flew out from the muzzle. I blinked upon pulling the trigger as the bullet hit the BruteWolf with a powerful kick, it was flown back against the wall and left a lot of dust in the area.

I exhaled as I jumped slightly back in shock then breathed quickly as to calm myself down. Dust was surrounding my target as I tried to see if it had been taken down, when the dust cleared I saw it's left arm blocking its head as smoke from the bullet hole was seeping out of its arm. The BruteWolf was able to react quickly enough to cover its head with its arm. I was surprised by its action as it then spoke with a distorted voice,

Ć̦͖̘̱̥a͢ń̺͓̖̞̫'t̝̻̲ F͏̞̩o̴̹̦̝̞o̲̘͉͞l̦̪̜̰.

M͉̘̥ẹ̖ T͎ͅw̻͓̕i͏̻͉̼̣cḙ

That's right, back in my Awakening, when it jumped at me, I was able to shoot it at its head before getting hit. I felt a slight bit of fear knowing that it had learned, this BruteWolf has actually learned. If I am going to have to survive this fight, I'm going to have to use every single cell in my brain to work to death. But then I realized that I technically don't have any brain cells, to begin with.

Thank you for reading this chapter! Sorry again for the long wait, I'm usually busy with school but I won't lie that I was distracted here and there by things such as video games or even anime.

But I hope you all enjoyed this chapter! Please be sure to give me feedback on anything whether it is the pros or the cons. What do you think of the return of Nathan's very first Colorless? Surprised? or predictable? Be sure to leave it in the comments!
