Empty Weapon By Franklin Casey

We open upon a room filled with flashing lights of red and white as a light turns on to brighten the room. It was a large lab for experimentation and in the center was a chair with cables hooked to it. Men and women with lad coals come in and get on there stations. Checking power, the balance and data feeds. In another building 63 subjects go into surgery like teens and adults of men and women that volunteer for this hoping to forget there past or what they lost dear to them. Out of the 63 that when in only 12 made it. The government was needing minds that were broken that could be used to control the robotic soldiers. With a broken mind they could remake a person  into a super computer to kill for them. But there was only one man that asked a favor, that if he controlled the robotic soldiers. He wanted to forget the lost of his wife and child to have his mind cleaned plus be on the front lines not in a chair or hooked up to a machine like the rest of the volunteers. He wanted to die on the battlefield with in, three years later he had 2600 kills under his belt. He was given the code name K-10 or X for short. He came up against others like him while fighting other countries or invaders from dimensions and space. But one mission had a mishap, X enter a ship that had left over aliens trying to flee. One jumped out and fire at X. X dodges and shoots back killing the alien but he heard a sound coming from the left in a corner. As he move over closer to see what it was. The door was locked but something was in the room. He kicked down the door to see a wife and child aliens. He points the gun and goes to squeeze the trigger when his mind goes haywire and a old memory comes back to haunt him. X sees his daughter and screams no while inside his head he hears voices from his commanders saying finish the mission. X tries again and points the gun but than a portal opens. He only had time to look when Caim comes flying out with a super man punch sending X flying out through the steel walls of the ship and skipping like a stone across the ground. Caim walks over to the dead alien X shot earlier and heals him plus brings his soul back. Clara helps the alien family through the portal to safety. Caim walks out to see a black hawk land and take X and retreat. Back at the base they take X to the emergency room for he was bleeding internally with broken bones so as they put him under he saw his daughter screaming not to go, not to forget us. After survey  they put him into the chair and again try to wipe his memories. As electric pulses go through his body, in the war room the commanders and chief speak of sending out drones to recover data of who Caim was? Mean while Caim sits down and pulls out a pocket watch to keep a eye on time. As the drones drop around him scanning him no data was coming up. The commanders and chiefs get pissed and yells at the scientists controlling the drones asking why there was no history on this being. Caim says to the drones knowing they are recording. I have a debt to settle with your super soldier so send him back or your world will exist no more.  A voice comes out of the drone saying you have no such power. Caim grabs the camera and shows them a example. He points the camera and waves his hand across the air and far out was a empty city that is leveled in a blink of a eye. 30 kilometers of a city gone. Caim says that was only 10% of my abilities. Back in the lab the scientists switch out the old shooting program for a samurai and CQC program plus they out fit him with a sword and back up dagger. The bullet proof suit was switch with a light type armor that can take damage and keep going. One of the scientist in the war room screams. The commanders and chief say what is it? As the scientist says he found something on the being. It was a stone tablet from long ago. The ancient writing was translated into English. The  massage said when they come pray for they are called for a purpose, There is no running or hiding just hope you have a place here after. The massage stops there and the commanders say I don't believe in curses or trash like that he can be killed I know he can. Send out our soldiers. As Caim sits, planes are in bond with thousands of robotic soldiers being controlled by the subjects. They drop out of the planes running at Caim full force. Caim stands and says guess it was time for a work out. As he walks with arms out to the left and right, two gate ways open one of light and dark. I'd reaches out and grabs Caim's hand and fuses to him. While a creature of pure light the Na-fi, cover in armor grabs hold of the other hand fusing as well. Caim takes on his truth self the abomination. He rises and lowers his left hand and I'ds power is used. A large monster hand rises out of the ground and grabs a hand full of robotic soldiers and crushes them while Caim uses the other hand. The ground shakes and ice spikes thrust through the chests and heads causing them to exploded. Caim dances around the battlefield destroying the robotic soldiers with eases. But than Caim kneels and slowly draws a circle in the air causing another portal to open releasing a dragon with four heads breathing fire melting them in there tracks. After every last one was destroyed Caim transforms back and bows to the dragon for its help. It nods and fly's through the portal back home. Caim than sits back down and takes a deep breath while staring at his watch saying your wasting my time to the drones. An hour later a plane fly's over head as Caim sits waiting. Out the back of the plane drops the super soldier. The super soldier hits the ground and craters it where he lands. He draws his sword and runs at Caim when he gets in close he thrusts the blade straight at him. Caim just dodges and grabs hold of the helmet and smashes him to the ground. Back at the lab the systems are over loading as the damage to the super soldier body was taken. The scientists say to the commanders and chief that the damage from that hit was to serious, He is going to lose out there. The one commander says it was like he got hit by 5000 tons of force with that take down. As the super soldier tries to move Caim sits down and says what happen to you? Caim removes the helmet to see the man was half machine and half human. Caim says man they did a number on you. But the soldier says no I asked for this. Caim shakes his head and gets up as the super soldier struggles to get to his feet. At the lab the system is going to blow as one of the scientists tries to shut it down but the system keeps going. They say what is going on? The system is now being controlled by the super soldier. The program kicks in but Caim keeps dancing around every move the super soldier throws with the sword and CQC. Caim summons his sword hell-burner, with each swing the super soldier loses arms and legs. Caim left only the torso and head together. Caim stands him against the rocks. As he says what you done to your self is no life to live. The super soldier yells trying to still fight on. Caim shakes his head asking why? As he takes the sword that the super soldier wheeled and shatters it. Caim than says with out propose and no soul within your weapon to guide you there is no victory for this life you made. Caim puts his hand on the soldiers head and says if you don't listen to reason I guess your fears have to do, maybe they'll bring your heart to the surface? When Caim lets go the soldier sees his wife and daughter standing before him. He screams no as he panic's with the machine trying to make sense of the event that is happening against the human part of him. Caim watched in sadness as the man that lay inside his shell be torture by his sadness, fear and his love that was stolen from him. The mans daughter and wife say why don't you want to remember us? Did we do something wrong? The soldier says no you did nothing wrong, I was just not strong enough to face my fears of losing you all I can't live with the failure of not being able to protect you. Than they say than why did you become a monster that loves to kill. The soldier cries saying I am not a monster, I just.... Caim stands off one of the rocks and walks over to the soldier and says no matter how much you try to bury memories or think someone can ease them they will always find a way to come back. That is the power of free will and your subconscious telling you that you are doing wrong. The soldier looks at Caim and says please end this nightmare for me. Caim says I will but you have to do something for me and he says anything. So Caim says you are apart of the system experiment and need to shut it down. So as he does the government loses system power everywhere but it does no stop there. The world is send back to the dark ages. The soldier says it is done now hold up your end of the deal. Caim says close your eyes. As the soldier does Caim thrusts his hand into the soldiers chest and tears his spirit out of the machine. His wife and daughter run to him and hold him tight. He turns back to see Caim leaving through a portal to home. The soldier yells thank you but Caim does not say nothing as he leaves. The soldier leaves with his family to heaven to live happily. But in Caim's world he cries hard knowing the lost of soldiers like his brothers and sisters so long ago. For he was the one send to end there lives for betray of the code Guardian. Emily comes in and holds him tight telling him to use her as his strength to be strong for the right reasons. Emily: I love you Caim never forget that. Caim: I love you too my heart and I promise to never forget.                         The End
