Chapter 1Chapter One: Once a Victim…

Nothing more than a heartless, cold-blooded killer! That's what most would have you think of me these days. But even I was a victim once. I crept through the shadows of an ally, tracking my target. The rain drowned out my footsteps, and I wore a black, hooded trench coat, helping me blend into the night. The date today was May 23, 3768 AD. I heard loud music thumping, the base pounded through the streets. You could smell alcohol, marijuana, and the fruity hints of hookah in the air, mixing in with must of drunken party animals! But I already had my target in sight! I took a deep breath, the cool nights air tasting sweet on my lips. I was completely calm, cool, and collected. I raised my arm, using the small gun I had installed in my arm. That was one of the ones he gave me…

"Game over!"

And just like that the party was over, and screams filled the air. I shot some smoke out of my pinky finger, my first installment I'd ever made. I preferred not to be seen. I retreated through the shadows. To some I was the worst kind of villain. They feared my intellect and resourcefulness. They thought of me as the Plague itself. But there are those who see me as a hero, calling me Black Vengeance. And anyone who knew me, simply called me Red. I really don't agree with anyone, I'm just another murderer in a city filled with crime. And just like everyone else I have a goal. But to tell you that, I'd have to start from the very beginning. The day I met them…

But first I should properly introduce myself. My name is…

-- three years earlier…

"Walker!!! Here's chow! I'd enjoy every bit if I were you! You know it's gonna be your last!!!"

His words leaked with venom, as if he were cursing me with them. It was cold, damp, and dark. My shackles clinked as my shriveled body shook. I was wrongfully accused of murder when I had simply made a mistake…

But that didn't matter now. I didn't even have the energy to make it over to my meal. Hmph! It's probably slop anyways! The way prisoners are treated is outrageous! A few moments later, I heard soldiers sloppily unlocking my door, forcing it open. I scampered to the corner of my cell!

"Don't worry kid, just dropping some company off to you. You guys can share your last moments together!!!"

She was a tall, dark, beautiful woman with lavender eyes, and a perfect figure. They tossed her in roughly, slamming and locking the door. It was quiet, and I couldn't even see her sneak up on me, until a spoon hit my lips.

"Here eat up! Can't have you dying now, can we?'

Her voice was sweet and sultry, coaxing me to eat as she fed me the soup the soldiers had left me. She rubbed my arm, comforting me. I'd never met this woman in my life but yet, she stared deep into my soul like we were an old, married couple. She wiped my mouth, caressing my chin softy. She gently brushed her lips against my ear, whispering…

"You won't die tomorrow; you're coming with me, handsome!"

I don't remember anything else from that night. All I remember is waking up the next morning in a daze. This woman's half naked body laid entangled with mine, as the guards forced their way in our room. They stopped, watching the scene before them. The woman rose slowly, grabbing my neck, and licking the side of my face. She reached for my belt, slowly undoing it. She turned to the guards as she began to slowly rock her hips against me.

"You boys want a show?!"

The soldiers looked on deviously. I was confused, shocked, and honestly quite aroused. And then I heard the first shot! Blood splattered on my face as the first soldier went down, crashing to the floor with a thud! Two shots! Three shots! After that my ears rang so loudly, I couldn't even hear the rest! I closed my eyes tightly, and leaned into this mysterious woman, as if she could protect me! I felt her rise off of me, helping me to my feet. As I opened my eyes, I saw a dark, shadowy figure standing in a pool blood.

"Thanks for the save boss, this is our man here, safe and sound!"

The woman spoke nonchalantly. The figure nodded at her. When he spoke, his voice was deep, bellowing against the cell walls.

"Good work, Hill, you two follow me!!! I'll answer questions later!"

I ran after the man, when suddenly, I was swept off my feet! Hill, as the man called her, carried me in her arms as she ran after him, moving much faster than I was! Shot after shot, the man she called boss executed soldiers. Before long, I could see light for the first time in a whole two years. But as quickly as my hope grew, it was crushed!

"We have you surrounded, surrender now!"

Hundreds, no thousands of soldiers, all with red dots trained on the trio. The "boss" smiled.

"Hey newbie!"

I shuttered.

"M-me?!"

"Show them your self-defense mechanism!"

"How did you…"

"NOW!"

Out of my prosthetic finger, I released a dark grey smoke, concealing us all. The boss threw off his cloak, revealing two entirely prosthetic arms. His arm unleashed all sorts of gun barrels as he proceeded to unleash all hell on the soldiers! Chaos erupted as the soldiers scrambled to get away. The man was like a one-man army, fending off all the soldiers at once without drawing a sweat. The boss looked back.

"RUN!!!"

We were gone before I knew it! Hill ran right at a hover car, loaded down with gadgets. She leapt into the air and the vehicle turned, and someone swung the back door open! We landed inside with a thud, bouncing on the seat. The driver turned around; his face stuck in a perpetual frown.

"Status, Hill?"

"We have to go back for the boss! Thanks to the newbie we scattered the enemy, but they still have too many!"

"Hmph! Here, let me show you how it's done Hill, you too newbie!"

I sat confused in Hill's lap. The man got out the car and took his shirt off. His entire chest, and his right arm, all metal. He breathed in, and a cannon burst from his chest.

"BROTHER, YOU BETTER DODGE!!!"

He shot out a beam of light that nearly blinded me, and that blew up the entire prison on impact. Plasma gun! That's military grade metal! The explosion left me deafened for a moment, to disoriented to realize…

"What did you just do to the boss, Kendall?!!!"

Hill screamed at the man that claimed to be the boss's brother. He pointed to the sky.

"Look up!"

We did as he said, and in a few moments, we saw the boss slowly descending from the skies. Apparently, he even had jets installed in his back! He landed softly, looking Kendall in the eye.

"That was reckless brother! But thank you for the save!"

"No harm, no foul, I'd have been disappointed if you'd got caught in that honestly! Not to mention you did something rather reckless yourself, Kunta."

"Hmph! Let's get the hell out of here! I'll drive!"

Kunta got in the driver seat, forcing Kendall to ride shotgun. A tall, slender man with a hat covering his eyes sat in the back next to him and Hill. Kunta smiled.

"Buckle up!"

He took off, driving as fast as he could and before I knew it, we were pulling into what looked like a hidden underground borrow. A large, hidden, grass covered garage door slid up a hill, revealing a tunnel. As we drove in, we parked on a platform, the had steps leading down to a large room full of gadgets and giant computers. Kunta spoke.

"Welcome to the lab, Reggie Walker! We are a group of rebel thieves who steal from the rich and give back to the less fortunate. We are the Mos Definites!"

My heart jumped. It was all starting to make sense. Kunta and Kendall Def, the deadly duo of twin brothers with two of the highest bounties in the world! Laura Hill, the sexy trickster known for her incredible stealth! If, she wanted, she'd have never been caught to save me. And the tall man must be, Dominick Max, one of the most well renown snipers in the world! I was surrounded by murderers! Kunta led us down the stairs, speaking as we walked.

"I understand, Reggie, you are an innocent man, but man to man I'd like you to give me a chance to show you, no, teach you how to be a real hero! That might mean staining your hands with blood, for your sake I hope not. But your run from authority, for three years?! Impressive to say the least! I want to nurture that talent, whatever it is!"

I didn't know what to say. But I knew one thing.

"You all saved my life, I'm in your debt, what do you need from me?!"

Kunta and Kendall laughed. Kendall pointed…

"First you need to get some meat on that body!!!"

Kunta snickered.

"And some more metal! Hill, take him to Dr. Trevis! You all have a month to get him ready, I'll be back to test his skill personally!!!"

And from there on my life was changed forever…

I hope that I am able to still write at the level you all find enjoyable. Making you the reader happy has always been one of my greatest joys and I hope it can lift me out of this difficult time. A word of warning before you partake in the tale. This is not a harem. This is not about some edge lord. This is a tale of an ordinary man who was forced into extraordinary events. Its a tale of a journey from being a simple yes man (some would say beta) to becoming more assertive. The main character gets abused a lot in this book, just a warning in advance since that offends some people. That is what is required to push him to become more assertive… regardless thanks for reading, I read every chapter comment and independent paragraph comment, I don’t get notifications about replies. Another notice: Please don’t try to apply the logic of earth to the characters in this book, it is a different universe with different behaviors and rules… Trigger Warning: The MC loses his memory for around 16 chapters. Disclaimer: The gods and goddesses in this book are all made up. Please do not apply your personal religious beliefs on them. They are a set of fictional characters created for enjoyment. As the roman, greek, and norse gods these gods and goddesses have a gender and are not some genderless enigmatic omnipresent being. They behave and act a lot like normal people and should be treated as just another character. Discord: https://discord.gg/ERfXt8w Wow you are still reading this??? There’s a book you can read you know… Okay… seriously the book is just one click away…
