I merged the original chapters 6 and 7 into one because I felt both were too short, but anyway please enjoy the chapter!
The sound of tape could be heard as Katsuki was wrapping some around his forearms while Yinsen was hoisting something that looked like a chestplate up on a stand.
5 minutes later it appeared that Katsuki was suiting up but they're going to have to hurry up as the deadline was coming up and the guards are now wondering why they couldn't see them on the camera.
Katsuki began to put some rubber gloves on as Yinsen something around the blondes knee to then move on to wrapping the same material around his neck. Katsuki then walked over to the chestplate and slid it over his head to put it on as Yinsen began locking his lower half into the leggings of the suit.
Both men suddenly heard the sound of men coming down the corridor and started to work faster. "Alright you old bastard, we don't have much time, I need you to lock that helmet on my head then go to the computer and hit Ctrl+M and then Ctrl+B then hit Enter."
Yinsen gave a small okay under his breath before moving to follow Katsuki directions, but the sound of footsteps and yelling what's getting closer and closer Yinsen quickly realized that they weren't going to have enough time to power the suit up….. and so once Yinsen had made sure that the start-up process had started, he ran over and grabbed one of the assault rifles that was supposed to go towards the Jericho missile and began to make his way up the room not before Katsuki started questioning what he was doing. "Hey! Old Man! where the hell are you going?!"
"Mr. Bakugou, me and you both know that that suit isn't going to power up before they get here, so I'm going to go by us time." He immediately turned to leave once he was done talking.
Bakugou knew he probably wasn't going to change his mind, but he at least had to try. "And me and you both know that they'll put 20 bullets to you the second you turn that corner, leaving the room before this suit is ready is suicide." Katsuki threw the cold reality of the situation at him, trying his best to reason with him. "C'mon Yinsen, we had a plan! Stick to the plan dammit!"
"I'm sorry but I have lied to you Mr. Bakugou, but this was always the plan."
"Please, listen to reason! You got to stick to the plan. You said you wanted to see your family right? Stick to the plan and I'll make sure that happens."
"My family is dead. There's nothing left for me in this world, I want this…please, let this happen." Even with Yinsen pleading Katsuki still hesitated and thought about it for a single moment before giving in and simply not in his head.
He watched as his newly-made and soon-to-be deceased friend made his way out the door and even though he tried to drown it out, Katsuki grimaced as he was forced to listen to the sound of gunshots and bullets flying. It wasn't too long until Katsuki finally heard it... the sound of Yinsen's cry of pain came out to him loud and clear.
With Katsuki acting on pure impulse, he quickly closed the faceplate of the helmet and locked himself into the suit and began his escape from that damn cave, however Katsuki quickly realized that since he didn't allow the suit to get the sufficient power that it needed to keep itself going, he didn't have long before the suit ran out of power and gave out on itself.
But even then it was more than enough time, as once he was out of the room Bakugou started plowing through men as he made his way down the corridor, these men were going to pay for their crimes against him.
Katsuki scoffed as you saw a couple men were trying to use a giant metal door as a way to lock him in, but little did they know he was right on the other side of it moving as quietly as possible as he slowly reeled his arm back preparing to strike the door and right when they least expected it, he punched the door down flattening at least two men under it and knocking the other two men that were besides them out.
The blonde kept walking as he noticed that the amount of men that were coming at him was declining, he figured that they were probably all at the entrance waiting for him to get there, but before he could think about his next move he saw something out the corner of his eyes.
He looked down to see what it was and he found Yinsen laying there half-dead, Katsuki quickly lifted the faceplate on the helmet to attempt to speak to him.
"Dammit Yinsen, did you really have to go and get yourself shot more than once? I was hoping you would at least stay behind cover."
Yinsen looked at Katsuki Bakugou with joy in his eyes. "I'm sorry Katsuki, it was the only way to ensure that you wouldn't try to save me and thanks to that decision, I can hear my family! They're telling me to come home, so please…. let me pass on all I've lived my life and I've made more mistakes than I would like but have a lot more cherished memories than regretted mistakes." He said with heavy breaths Katsuki I could tell that his time was coming."
"Alright then Old Man, if that's what you wish, now don't waste your afterlife." Katsuki said, as he was starting to tear up a little bit.
Yinsen smirked. "Just promise me one thing before I go, okay?" Katsuki simply nodded. "Consider…. this your second…. chance at life…., please don't waste it… promise me that…."
"I promise." Yinsen smiled as Katsuki watched the light fade from his eyes and like that Yinsen, the man who in his final days of life chose to help Bakugou escape his prison and likely soon-to-be tomb was dead, because he chose to make a noble sacrifice.
His name was Ho Yinsen and on that day Katsuki Bakugou swore to himself that he would never forget it or him as he took a man's glasses off and to close his eyes.
As Katsuki finished, he stood up and continued to move along the path as he likely had multiple men waiting for him at the end of it and he was going to make sure he Slaughtered Them All.
We start where we left off with Bakugou continuing down the Cave after leaving Yinsen's dead body, but unfortunately that was the least of his problems.
Katsuki was fortunate enough to know ahead of time that there were a lot of men outside waiting for him and if he and Yinsen counted correctly the last time they were outside, there should have been 25 to 30 men out there, likely all of them with their guns trained on the cave entrance.
Bakugou kept walking until he eventually found his way out, but he didn't walk out yet because he knew as soon as he stepped out there they would light him up like a Christmas tree and the suit may have been durable, but it wasn't lasting long against all those bullets but then he remembered the homemade grenades that he and Yinsen made just in case.
They had made about 4 of them and they may have used grenade shells for them, but these things were filled to the brim with Katsuki's specially brewed Nitroglycerin. Now these things packed a serious punch and since this was a special brew it doesn't behave like a normal Nitroglycerin and instead of exploding when shaked, it explodes when it comes into contact with Katsuki's sweat and that's where the pins came in, specifically designed to keep the Nitroglycerin from touching the sweat and when pulled it takes about 20 seconds to explode and more sweat that's mixed in the bigger the explosion.
Quickly thinking up a plan Katsuki quietly made his way over the cave exit and once he grabbed two grenades, pulled their pins and threw them outside, at first they treated them like actual grenades but then once they noticed they weren't going off and decided to get closer, Katsuki however, while he couldn't see them he was counting down 20 seconds in his head and simply said "Bang" right as the grenades exploded.
He took the men's cry of pain as a cue to head outside, once his eyes had adjusted to the sun's glare he looked down at the men that were in front of him and those explosions did splendidly, not only did they blow up a lot of men, but they also caused a bunch of his weapons that they stole to blow up by proximity AKA a chain reaction.
They were still men left over but not much to make a difference, their numbers went from 30 to just 13 in mere moments. Getting cocky, Katsuki stood there and waited for the rest of the men to recover from their dazed state and when one of them finally spotted him, he yelled something in Arabic and all the other men turned to face Katsuki as he smirked under his helmet.
Within a second, all the men pointed their guns at him and started firing, but to no avail as the bullets bounced off of him, it was only a matter of time before they ran out of ammo, but somehow a stray bullet managed to slip past his armor plates and hit him in his right shoulder. Katsuki didn't feel this however, thanks to the adrenaline in his system but he did realize that he needed to get there and he chance came as soon the last bullet left one of the guns.
The men quickly realized that they were out of ammunition and quickly tried to reload their weapons with fear clear on their faces and Katsuki was enjoying every moment of it while smiling maliciously.
"Hehe, My Turn."
Bakugou maniacally laughed as he torched the place with the flamethrowers attached to his arms. The men screamed in pain as they were engulfed in flames and explosions because Katsuki's flamethrowers caused another chain reaction.
He was about to fly off until he felt a sharp pain in his back, he turned around to see the terrorist leader with a shotgun. "Katsuki Bakugou! YOU SON OF BITCH!" Normally, this gets a reaction from Katsuki but he was just so done with this week he couldn't get angry anymore, so he simply took another grenade and pulled the pin and held it while he wasn't looking.
"YOU WILL COME BACK INTO THIS CAVE AND YOU WILL BUILD MY JERICHO MISSILE OR IF MY NAME ISN'T RAZA THE GREAT, DO YOU HEAR ME?!" He spat, but once he hit the 15 second mark Katsuki tossed the grenade at him, Raza tried to dodge but was still caught in the explosion.
Once again, Katsuki was about to fly off until something distracted him once more, he looked to his left to see the one guard from earlier and looked to his right to conveniently see a detached foot that must have been blown off in the explosions.
Katsuki Bakugou was never anything less than petty.
We next see the guard laying in the sand dead with another man's foot up his ass as Katsuki flew off cackling to himself like a madman.
As Katsuki was flying through the air, he felt one of his thrusters shut off then right back on and then he felt the other do the exact same thing, this only spelled trouble as suddenly both his thrusters shut off but this time they did not turn back on, causing him to start falling out of the sky, he would never tell anyone about the shriek he let out that day and once he hit the ground, he hit the ground HARD.
But fortunately, his right shoulder broke his fall, but unfortunately, his shoulder was now shattered at least he thought it was and thanks to the adrenaline wearing off he could now feel the bullet wound in his shoulder and quickly used one of the piping hot pieces of metal from his now total suit to cauterize his wound.
After he was done, he took a look around and seeing that there was nothing inside for miles, he made the decision to only take things that were necessary for survival from the suit and begin walking. Bakugou was trekking through the desert for hours until he finally found his rescue party in the form of a helicopter coming towards it, he quickly waved it to get their attention and luckily they noticed him.
When the chopper landed safely, he quickly ran towards it to get aboard and when the door opened, out stepped a man that Katsuki trusted would have never stopped looking for him, that shitty haired bastard. "Sooooo, how was the Fun-vee? Hmph, next time you're riding with me in the hum-drum-vee, hehe." He laughed.
"Hello Kirishima."
Hey! I am sooooooo sorry! This chapter was so long over due and I've been faster, but I was working on a lot of stories, but that's not an excuse and I should have been faster, but speaking of stories… Hey! Do you like Jason Todd and Teen Titan stories? Then I would suggest "Titans: City of Terror.'' a relatively new story on my RoitheOG profile that hasn't been shown much love yet, so if you could and or half the time go check it out.
