Chapter 4

Ira walked angrily down the highway muttering curses under his breath with his thumb sticking out he could just run but he didn't want to attract more attention.

He kept walking but no one stopped to pick him up probably because he looked like a thug in his black leather jacket and sunglasses.

Man, where am I even gonna go with my strength I could tear apart a bank vault for cash, and after a while of absorbing beast force I'm pretty sure I stopped aging or at least started aging slower so I'm gonna be alive a long time gotta figure out what to do with my life.

After an hour or two I put my hand down it's pointless anyway I'll just walk better for the environment or whatever those pussies say.

I kept walking until I saw a cheap motel I took the money out of those cops' wallets so I could stay a night or two I walked in and spoke to the Hindu guy at the counter he gave me a key to my room and the number on the key was 3D hehe my room number is 3D but when I walk in not so surprisingly it looked like crap.

Of course well it's only a night I laid down on the bed but I couldn't fall asleep huh? that's right I don't need to sleep not like I could when I was in the other world I did try to once I woke up to a pack of wolf monsters trying to eat me almost died that day.

So what do I do now can't go back home I've been gone a year they probably think I ran away or died even if I went back they wouldn't recognize me not like I care too much I was never attached to them there's also the problem of the fact I killed six cops.

Hmm? I know I'll go to Mexico or someplace like that government there has little power I'll join a cartel and be an enforcer I got the strength and I got the guts to kill yeah so I'll steal a car and drive down to Texas cross the border and find a gang to join easy as pie or is it cake God I don't know let's get going then.

I get up and open the door to see a large group of guys about 20 or so in swat team gear holding machine guns.

"Well just fuck me in the ass," I say I quickly slam the door then run to the far brick wall punch it down, and sprint at full speed through the parking lot towards the highway.

I jump over into traffic and weave my way through the cars running at 80 mph I look up and see a helicopter flying overhead shit hope I'm not on the news but I don't stop and keep running until I see a roadblock up ahead instead of slowing down I speed up much to the surprise of law enforcement and jump over the roadblock.

I land and keep running at full speed the cops get in their cars and chase after me I hear gunfire but nothing hits me so I just keep on moving honestly I once outran a swarm of giant wasp monsters some cops are no problem to me they were after me for three days straight but these pigs will run out of gas eventually so I'm gonna keep moving till then.

After about three miles the cop's cars start to slow I look and notice that they must be running low on gas as I said hehe stupid fucking pigs I look and see a sign that reads Columbus, Ohio 6 miles ahead I'll lay low there and move to Cleveland after that Detroit looks like I'm hiding out in Canada instead of Mexico.

Well everyone will agree Canada is better than Mexico I prefer the cold anyway plus there's that free heal care everyone talks about not like I would need it but it's there I guess.

I keep sprinting but I end up falling with a slight pain in the back of my left knee I get up and see a different chopper in the sky that looks like a combat copter some sniper is sitting inside. That man he's a good shot got me right in the leg as I was running at like 200 mph that's a pretty hard thing to do.

Not like I'm injured or anything but still god damn I grab the ground and take out a fist-sized piece of the road about 1 pound and throw it at the sniper it hits him in the head and it bursts open like a melon haha! headshot yes.

The pilot quickly maneuvers the helicopter away from me those guys were different from those cops at the roadblock in fact I think they were the swat guys from the motel.

Probably a special unit or something they have a more hardened veteran vibe to them, unlike those cops.

Ouch I feel multiple things probably bullets hit my back and see many armored trucks moving in shit gotta move but they quickly surround me and the large team I saw before step out of them crap looks like I have to kill them I get into a boxer stance but they pull out what looks like are those CS gas shooters crap there were wearing gas masks got to cover my face they shot out canisters of gas at me before I can cover my mouth I start coughing as I struggle to maintain conciseness what is this its not tear gas I'm tough enough to resist it this has to be something else and just like that In a few minutes, I pass out.

"Anomaly secured looks like Martinez is dead but casualties were lower than expected moving anomaly to site-19," said the MTF member.

They tried to put him in one of the trucks but he was surprisingly heavy it took 10 grown men to barely lift him into one of the armored vehicles after a few frustrating minutes they secured him and moved out Ira's life is gonna somehow get worse from here on out.
