A large thump echoed through the empty wasteland and Reid stumbled to regain his balance. Once standing again he walked forward gingerly, placing a hand on the previously unforeseen barrier. He laughed as he felt the dark steel of the wall. His green eye glinting as he looked around the room quietly, the other stared forward lifelessly. He smiled as he spotted a pair of lights in the distance.
"I don't think I've ever been so happy to see civilization." He muttered to himself before beginning to walk quietly to the building. As he approached the building, he noticed the walls were cement and the doors where steel. Instinctively he wrapped his hand around the end of the long chain he wore wrapped around his shoulder, the blade at the end glinting in the dim light.
Reid reached to the large door and paused momentarily before stepping backward. He swung his arm vigorously, swinging the blade in a graceful arc. A man yelled out and stumbled from the darkness holding the bleeding stump of a wrist. Reid twisted and yanked his arm again, sending the blade into the gut of the man. Several other men emerged from the darkness, each sporting guns. Reid stepped back feeling cornered. He yanked the blade out of the man's torso. He swung again and the blade whizzed by a soldiers face, cutting his cheek. Following behind the blade was Reid's fist, it connected leaving behind a trail of blood originating at the nose.
Before he was able to take out another enemy a loud voice roared a command and Reid was knocked unconscious by the butt of a rifle.
He awoke in a dull, empty, cement room. A door on the wall adjacent Reid was the only exit he could see. As he recalled what had occurred outside the military building, a great rage began to boil inside the man. He began to rock back and forth in the he was bound to. The steel legs grating against the concrete floor. He rocked faster and more violently until the chair tipped and Reid's head bounced of the hard ground.
'Damn,' He thought to himself as he began to pull at the rope vainly with the tips of his fingers. After several long minutes he decided that pulling at the ties was futile, and had began to swing his head in an attempt to get his hood up, when the door opened. Reid looked up and smiled at the colorful bug that had just walked into the room. His entire left body replaced by shiny metal body parts.
"Such a shame," Reid said cooly "Just another example of beautiful nature being… spoiled by modernization" This enticed a metallic foot into Reid's ribs. He gasp with pain as the cyborg bent down to talk to his captive.
"Modernization has kept me alive. Now tell me, young fool, what where you doing outside the base last night?"
"A base? Oh my, I was just looking for a bathroom, I had no idea this was military." Reid said with a smile, pain in his voice.
"Do you always kill two soldiers on the way to the bathroom?" The cyborg asked before kicking Reid again. "Only when they're in my way" he responded, still smiling as he spat some blood onto the floor before him. The cyborg stood and sighed.
"Oh well, I suppose it doesn't matter where you came from, your still going to compete."
"Compete? I don't remember signing up for a competition" Reid said, his smile faltering.
"You signed up when you where caught," The cyborg explained. "You will participate in a fighting tournament along with several other civilians who have been gathered. The winner will receive one artifact of your choosing from the city held within that giant dome…" Reid' smile returned at this, one of his questions being answered without even being asked. He chose to let the bug continue in hopes of having the rest of his questions answered. "The air within the city is tainted with disease, thus you have been fitted with a protective collar around your neck."At this Reid began to struggle against his binds angrily.
"You did what to my neck!?" he yelled angrily. "Don't touch me! Don't ever touch me!"
"Quiet. Once I'm finished you make take your anger out on the contestants in however way you see fit. When you fight, if you defeat your opponent you will continue inside the city. Should you lose though, officials will arrive to return you or your remains to this base. I believe that is enough information for you to begin, I suppose. A service bot will be in momentarily to free you. Your chain weapon is in the hall on the other side of this door. Follow the hall, the door at the end is the entrance to the city. Have fun." And with that, the large bug exited through the door, leaving Reid to his thoughts. He laughed to himself quietly.
'What have I gotten myself into…' he thought before smiling at the small bot that entered the room.
