Chapter 23 Jake and rescue mission

  I walked out and greeted him. “Hey Jake, how’s it going?” He smiled at me, then looked confused at my new size, then got really pissed off. “You son of a bitch! It was you!” He feigned like he was going to attack me, but was stopped by the guards. Before I went back in time, I could beat him in a fight, but now he stood no chance… No, even if he attacked me with a gang and all of them had weapons, I could win.

  I smiled at him, as wrong as he was for betraying me in my previous life. I still had many good memories of before the apocalypse with him. “It’s good to see you.” Even with him being extremely mad at me for having realized I was probably the one who told Vicky, my new body and the cheery act I put on threw him off tremendously.

  He turned and left. “Fuck this. We’re done, don’t try to talk to me.” That was it; the entire thing came down to a few words, which was the most realistic outcome. He was always a coward, and I had to defend him in school more often than not when his mouth got him in trouble. No one knew that the world was going to end; he was just looking for a safe pce to wait it out, and he thought he’d get right back to being a bastard after it was over.

  I sighed and watched him get back into his truck and leave. I moved to head back inside when I heard someone scream. “Freeze!” I look at the person and don’t recognize her right away. “Umm… Who are you?” Her face went from tense to disgusted as she told me. “I was the police officer whose gun you stole.” I couldn’t help but ugh. “You picked a terrible time to come here. Do you see those clouds on the horizon? In less than thirty minutes, the floods are going to hit here. You should go home and come back after the floods are over.”

  I knew that it would st a month and that the police would have other bigger problems to deal with than a vehicle thief. “Where are the people you took from the ICU?” I was taken aback by how they linked me to that. Of course, the hospital would have cameras. “They’re resting inside. You won't understand right now, but if you head to the hospital after the flood, it’ll make sense to you.”

  She was dressed in civilian clothes, which was one of the reasons I didn’t recognize her right away. Her bck woolen sweater hugged her breasts so desperately that I could see the fabric stretch to handle the rge burden. It looked like she’d have to grease herself up to fit into the jeans she was wearing; they hugged all the curves in the right pces, showing off everything. If she bent over I bet I could make out the outline of her pussy, they were that tight.

  She looked like Eva Mendes, even down to the beauty mark, except it was on her right cheek instead of her left. Young, her youthful appearance had me guess her to be in her very early twenties… I didn’t recognize her, so she must not have made it very far in the apocalypse. If she’s a police officer, that would m-. “Look at your phone! Do you have any messages from the police chief?”

  My sudden seriousness had her questioning me with her eyes. I had already escaped by distracting her, and she might have thought it was simir to the same. I sat down before saying. “I’m not going anywhere until you check your phone.” With me putting myself in a worse position to run away, she finally relented. I remembered another thing that I learned from gossip a few months into the apocalypse.

  The police went to a prison break after the power was knocked out at a jail, and all of them died to the prisoners. Hopefully, we still have time to save them. Who knew how many evil-powered individuals came out of that prison that made the world worse? Having a police force around at the beginning of the apocalypse might quell some of the worst parts of what happened after the initial flood and cold snap. Her breath hitched as she said. “I got to go right now. Don’t go anywhere, I’ll be back after I handle this.” I stopped her.

  “The flood is coming, your car will only make it until the first wave. Give me twenty seconds.” I ran to the back of the mansion at a speed that no human would be capable of before storing the boat I stole in my vehicle storage. Running back, without her seeing what I did, she just looked confused again until I told her. “I’m ready, let's go.”

  She questioned whether or not to take me, but the urgency of the situation had her go with the flow. I outpaced her and took shotgun in her muscle car… How the hell could she afford a muscle car? It didn’t matter right now; it was a thirty-minute drive to the prison, and that was if you weren’t heading directly into a flood. She asked a ton of questions about why I did all those crimes, but I had no reason to tell her. The truth wasn’t believable, even if I showed her that I had superpowers, she’d just believe that and not that I was from the future. I didn’t pn on telling anyone, I didn’t completely trust the actual truth.

  She smmed on her brakes, coming to an immediate stop as she finally saw the flood heading towards us. It didn’t look threatening, but it wasn’t waist-high water being pushed, but sludge. The front half was dug up dirt and was full of other things besides water. One part had a bunch of cars and trucks being pushed to the side. She looked fearful, the flood was pushing all the vehicles and smming them against the buildings on the side. Some of the vehicles were flipped and destroyed by the flood.

  I stuck my hand out the window and summoned the boat while storing her muscle car. I tossed her into the boat while picking up the end right before the wave struck. It tried its best to push me back, but with my superior strength, I could handle it. Putting the boat down onto the water, I kept pushing against the wave as I finally climbed onto the back and started the motor.

  There was no way she’d have made it to the prison break, but she wouldn’t have been looking for me off duty if I hadn’t committed the crimes. She’d have been at the prison and died with the rest of them… Or worse, she was an extremely attractive woman after all. No, she’d have died because she’d have been firing at them. Speaking of which. “Here’s your gun back… But do you want something a little bigger for this? We don’t know what kind of state the prison will be in once we get there.”

  I handed her the pistol, but also an AK. She wouldn’t have made much of a difference, they still would have lost, but with me… I should probably make her some armor so she doesn’t get murdered in a second. “Hey… Can you take over and drive this? I can make you some armor if you give me enough time.” She swaps pces with me as she figures out how to drive, and I make the bone armor I was pnning to in the future.

  It’ll limit her range of motion but make her almost bulletproof. Only a perfectly pced bullet in her eye would kill her in a single shot. Making the bone armor loose was the best bet for now; having it custom-fitted would work, but this way it could just go right over her clothes. Her arms could be hit, but that wouldn’t kill her; the same went for the bottom of her legs.

  The armor looked imposing and scary, but it was made for more practical purposes. I could fuse the bones together and make hinges with them so the chestpiece fred up, covering her neck as well. The bottom half was thin strips of bone that formed more of a yered curtain resembling a dress than a true protective sheet of armor. Adding two yers would make it harder to move in, but it would help guarantee that a bullet wouldn’t bypass one yer as the person stepped forward.

  It didn’t look like bone armor you’d see in the game, but actual armor consisting of three pieces. The helm had a ski mask on the inside so it wouldn’t rub or smash against your face if someone hit it with a bullet. It looked more like the Punisher helmet than an actual skull with slits for air forming the skull-like structure. It was sp-dashed together, and I knew I could make it far better if given enough time, but it should do the trick.
