Star Force Gemini Chapter Fifteen [part three]

"Lord, place the steel of the Holy Spirit in my spine and the love of the Virgin Mary in my heart." El Salvador prayed as he stood before [Jestro].
"What's the prayer for?" [Jestro] asked.
"Even Gods get old and sloppy, I intend to stay sharper than the others." El Salvador said. He stood there, some ways away from [Sir_Jestro], his hand just above his pistol, ready to draw.
[Jestro] stood beside C41212105's totalled car, his hand waiting for the draw as well. A dirty day old paper blew by between them. The two of them waited, only the distant sound of car horns could be heard.
Then El Salvador moved, his hand grabbed the pistol and shot at [Jestro] so fast the reflex systems in the suit had no time to react. [Jestro] flew backwards, he slammed into a fire hydrant, the water went spraying into the air.
"Get up." El Salvador commanded. [Jestro] did, his suit damaged greatly in the chest region.
"Warning!" The internal system flashed on his screen. "Irreparable damage to chest piece."
"Shoot me." El Salvador demanded. [Jestro] did, in that split second El Salvador disappeared and reappeared behind [Jestro] and grabbed him around the neck. "You see? There really is some magic left in the world. I'm one of the last." [Jestro]'s head started to feel foggy, he pulled at the arm wrapped around his neck.
"The difference between your kind and mine is: We aren't weak and pathetic, we keep our values pure. You three spat in our faces after we let you think you were something more than humans." [Jestro] tried to free himself, but the grip was too much.
"You three will pay. And you will be the first sacrifice. You will be what makes them coming for revenge, blood is so much better when its become bitter with revenge." El Salvador said licking the side of [Jestro]'s masked face. Then he threw [Jestro] to the floor.
[Jestro] hit the ground and spun around as fast as he could, he fired where El Salvador was, but in the next second he was gone - without a scratch.
"Tracking systems on." [Jestro] commanded. Then his vision went red, scanning for body heat, but there was no sign of El Salvador. Then his vision went purple, scanning for motion. He watched as a ripple in the air formed and El Salvador jumped through it.
[Jestro] rolled out of the way as El Salvador slammed a cross into the ground where he stood. [Jestro] pushed himself off of the ground as he rolled, barrel rolling into the air, firing as he spun. When he landed on his feet El Salvador was standing beside him. [Jestro] threw an elbow, but missed. El Salvador headbutted [Jestro].
"Visual Receptors offline." The internal system said. [Jestro] retracted his suit slightly, exposing his eyes. It looked now, like he had a pair of goggles resting of his forehead.
His eyes scanned the area around him, he turned around erratically, waiting for any sort of movement.
Just then he heard a sound behind him and fired.
"Ahhh!" A voice screamed. "[Jestro] its me, C41212105! Why did you shoot me!?" C41212105 screamed.
"Oh, shit!" [Jestro] called out. "Sorry, dude! I didn't do it on purpose!" Then from his peripheral vision saw movement. El Salvador standing some ways away. "We gonna fight, or are you just gonna keep jumping around?"
"Let's finish this now." El Salvador said. Then he charged at [Jestro]. So [Jestro] charged at him as well. They ran at full speed until they came feet from each other, and started fighting.
[Jestro] punched, El Salvador blocked.
El Salvador kicked, [Jestro] jumped.
Then the skies clouded over, making the whole city a dull grey color, and then the rains started to fall. [Jestro] swung but El Salvador caught his arm by the elbow with his right arm and started punching his in the side with his left arm. [Jestro] screamed in pain, even with his suit on blue he still felt the pain. El Salvador was not human. [Jestro] kicked at one of El Salvador's legs, making him lose his grip. El Salvador removed the cross from the ground and swung it at [Jestro] like a great hammer. [Jestro] blocked it with his forearm blade and palm pushed El Salvador backwards. [You see, he installed a mechanism similar to Iron Man's palm blaster, although rather than being lethal, it just sends a stunning pulse through the enemy.]
In the next second El Salvador was falling from the sky behind [Jestro], but he spun around just in time to block another swing from the cross hammer [Catholic Cross, btw], only this time he feel to the ground from the force of the fall.
"This is where it ends, [Jestro]." El Salvador says, pressing the hammer strongly against [Jestro]'s forearm blade so that it was nearly cutting his own throat.
"How can you be so sure?" [Jestro] asked back.
"Because I have a little gift for you." He said then disappeared. [jestro] rolled to his feet. El Salvador appeared again, charging. [Jestro] spread his feet and prepared for a hard hit. But then El Salvador stopped and threw a small metal ball at the ground just in front of [Jestro].
As it hit the ground a huge ball of blue light lit up sky, it sent the rain away for just a few seconds, only to return again, falling harder. [Jestro] fell to the ground, paralyzed.
"NO!!!!" He screamed from inside his disabled suit. "FUCK NO!!! This isn't happening! AHHHHH!!!!"
El Salvador walked calmly over to [Jestro] and lifted him up by the back of the neck.
"A true assassin never neglects the weak points of his opponent." Then he set [Jestro] down.
[Jestro] sat on the ground just before El Salvador, on his knees, his head cocked upwards - gazing up at his death. El Salvador removed his pistol and placed it between [jestro]'s eyes and said,
"Any last words, [Sir_Jestro]?"
"I'd like to quote a verse from the bible." [Jestro] responded.
"Ha, I thought you weren't religious!"
"I'm not. But the bible is still a book, and I've read it." [Jestro] said holding back his fear.
"Fine, what verse is it?" El Salvador asked.
"The only verse in the whole thing worth remembering; Pslams 23." [Jestro] said, El Salvador laughed.
"That would be the only one you'd want to remember, always 23 with you." El Salvador said, lightning flashing up above him.
"The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want." [Sir_Jestro] said. The crashing sound of thunder exploded overhead.
"He makes me lie down green pastures, he leads me to quiet waters, he restores my soul." [Sir_Jestro] said, C41212105 crawls out of his smashed up car, his head still spinning.
"He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake." [Sir_Jestro} said, 김재민, Ω, and **SuPeRfUcKiNgStAr** speed through the rain soaked city.
"Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me." [Sir_Jestro} said, C41212105 sees his friend being held at gun point, he jumps to his feet.
"You prepare a table for me in the presence of my enemies." [Sir_Jestro] said, Ω's car skids to a stop just next to C41212105's smashed up one.
"You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows." [Sir_Jestro] said, the three of them jump from the car [김재민 was actually holding onto the roof].
"Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord, Forever." [Sir_Jestro] said, El Salvador pulls back the hammer of his pistol.
"Amen."

BANG!
