"Raiden? Come on buddy, answer me! Raiden!!" The screen says about the thirtieth time. "Ugh! Goddamn Gekko's! They keep surrounding me and ambushing me!" I have been playing this game for about 2 hours now and every time I die I get more and more furious at the game and its ridiculous levels and camera angles. "Crack!" Outside my window the sky lights up and screams out, warning us about danger. "Allison, turn off the Playstation and get some candles!" Dad yells from downstairs, excited. He has missed thunderstorms in New Brunswick, so Dad and I usually go outside and watch with some popcorn. We were originally from Ontario where thunderstorms were very common and very entertaining. "Will do!" I sweep my short platinum blonde hair out of my round face, revealing my annoyed and tired green eyes. Getting up, bringing the controller towards the console, I look out the window and stare at the sky. "Sigh, I wish that world was real." Suddenly, a power surge circulated around the house, lights flickering and electricity surged through the controller and the Playstation, a bright light omits from them and fills my vision, blacking me out.
Raiden's POV
After finally defeating the Metal Gear Ray and looking over at the carnage of N'mani's bodyguards' bodies scattered on the ground. "Shit." I curse under my breath. "Raiden hurry, he is getting away!" Boris yells into the codex. "On it!" I start sprinting towards the cyborg's radar, some military personnel start crowding the train tracks on which the cyborg is on. "Dammit." the military see me and they let me pass. Using my ninja run, I slide around the corner, jump onto the side of a building and barely make it on the train. "He heading for the front of the train! After him!" Boris says on the codex. I start running, trying to catch up with N'mani. "Raiden, an unidentified Tiltrotor is headed your way. Keep an eye out for it." I finally see the terrorists. ' Another cyborg? Great. Reinforcements maybe.'
"Prime minister!" I yell out to N'mani, who is being chained up by the cyborg from earlier. The cyborg smiles and says "Ha, too late, too late hero. I won't be needing my little shield here any longer." He puts his high-frequency machete at N'mani's throat. "Stop!" I reach out, but he grabs N'mani's throat, "What about all the good things war has done for us? Why don't we ever hear speeches about that? Jobs, technology, a common purpose..." The other cyborg yawns audibly. "Raiden, forget me. Stop him." N'mani chokes out, the cyborg drops him and grabs his head. "You ain't listenin'..." He chops the chains, letting N'mani fall to the ground. I run up by my blade meets the Marusama blade of the other cyborg. "Mind if I cut in?" He says. My attention draws back to the cyborg with the machete, he holds N'mani up and he yells "All we're saying is... give war a chance!" smiling, he brings his blade through N'mani's stomach. Killing him instantly. "No!" I yell and he throws his corpse off the train. I hear loud helicopter sounds and a ladder comes down. "Get out of my way!" I yell at the other cyborg and slash but he parries my blow, sending me back.
"He's all yours, Sam." The original cyborg grabs the ladder and gets pulled up into the helicopter. The cyborg named "Sam" gets his marusama ready for battle. "Let's go." He says, I smile and get my robotic eye interface out, scanning him. "Now now. Don't be shy." Sam taunts. I slash at him and after a few rounds, I finally get him, he jumps up onto a crate and sighs. "Hmm, Mightier then the pen after all." Then he jumps off and strikes, making me fall. "Fool." Sam blurts out. Our swords clash and he says. "Self-taught and not half bad. Still..." He knocks me down and taunts. "Your technique lacks something..." He jumps onto the side of the tunnel and strikes. "Pathetic." Our swords clash once again. "Now I see... You deny your weapon its purpose." He strikes a nerve from my past. 'No, he can't know about that! Shit!' Sam sees my vulnerability and takes his chance to cut my eye from its socket.
Holding my socket, he continues to taunt, "It yearns to bathe in the blood of your enemies but you hold it back." I look up at him and say "No." I get up and hold up my sword. "My sword is a tool of justice." Sam's nerve gets visibly struck but he turns his high frequency blade, runs up and cuts my arm off. Stumbling and coughing up blood I yell, "Shit! Not again!" Sam kicks me and Boris calls me on the codex. "Raiden! Are you alright?! You're almost clear of the tunnel! Just hang on!" Sam kicks me one more time and I stumble off the train, holding on for dear life using my right arm. "This is what happens when you bring a tool to a swordfight. This is over." Sam raises his sword to strike but we get out of the tunnel. "Lucky devil..." "Kept you waiting, ah?" bullets fly and Sam jumps onto the ladder, flying away. But in the air, I see a figure, figure falling very fast. As I adjust my eye, the figure is an unconscious female with citizen clothes. By instinct, I jump and catch her midair, when we land, I lay her down. "What the hell? How the hell did you get here?" I say before passing out due to bloodloss.
