Should Have Let Me Die

Chapter 212: I'm Hyde, Nice To Meet You!

"Alright, so, door, over there, Ima make one. Titania, babe, can you be a dear, take care of that?" I asked as I walked over to the corner of the room with a bare outside wall.

"That wall is ten centimeters thick!" Cried Captain Black as she came running into the room. 

I put my hand on the wall flat and snapped Open two gates. I didn't want to wreck the place, but a quick snap of the Gates should be good. I had already taken the drink, or this would shatter it. I pulled my hand back, now with four Gates unlocked, I could use the Bitch Slap of God, or as Grip liked to call it The Almighty Push.

I snapped my arm forward to slap my hand on the wall while directing the two Gates open to channel all power into my open palm. This left the rest of me at just above normal strength for a brief moment but forced any more power I got into the channel that was concentrated at my palm. As my palm was a hair's breadth from connecting, I snapped both other gates open and then closed.

*BANG!*

A three-meter section of the wall flew off spiraling to the ocean, and my hand continued forward without ever touching the wall. Using less than four would be like tapping a missile on my hand backward and could just as easily kill me, but I had the information engraved in my mind.

"Sorry!" I shouted as I ran off and around the ship to the other side where the giant curtain was hanging. 

There was a small triangle that could fit a car, but not a truck, so I waited to grow, but I let the power of the two Gates flow back into me and started to run. Then I heard a buzzing come from above, and I rolled my eyes and kept running, I wasn't going to look at it. 

A black tube with wings floated down in front of me, keeping pace with a camera pointed at me from the end of the tube. I couldn't hold my smile back, I leave for two weeks, and without Alex or Kade is here to keep them in check and they go wild. 

I burst into the opening and I was instantly hit with hammering winds, but I grew big again! The feeling of my body expanding after so long was almost like sex but not even close, but kind of, hehe. The wind felt stronger now but I opened the third Gate, and the trees leaned away from me as I thundered down the only path.

I waited for the BBC Drone to get away since it was already shaking before opening the last Gate. The place was a solid jungle, no way to see through or over, but I could hear faint cheering get closer as I ran. There was no rain, but the ground was wet, so it must rain on and off. I really wondered what these places actually were, I wouldn't be surprised to see Lumimoss.

I finally reached a clearing and found that fam getting greasy with the locals without me, we were going to have to talk about this after. Cable was the one in the ring with a monster of a man, more ape than man, but hairless, so go figure. It was the way Cable looked different that was throwing me off.

"HEY!" I shouted, just as the two were about to go back at it.

Everyone looked at me, and all my friends were staring at me in stunned shock.

"You guys can't tell me you came to mud wrestle with the locals but you didn't wait for me?"

"Hyde!" The group yelled all coming over to give me a hug. 

"Cable! What happened, you've been juicing the last couple of weeks?" I called over as Cable threw his opponent out of the ring.

He had only broken concentration and called with the rest, but he had gone right back to fighting after. The gorilla man had rushed him, thinking he was not paying attention, and tossed him out of the ring using his own momentum. 

"You couldn't have waited five minutes? I almost got B lined by that mother fucker! I evolved jackass, just wait and I'll show you some cool shit later, but they don't like magic, so I don't know how many bottles you drank, but don't use them. These guys have been waiting for you, we are just playing right now," Cable said, coming over and shaking my hand the way we did, and we got some interesting looks from the ape people, and some of them even started to copy us.

"Drank what? Nevermind. So, they don't look evil or bad, I mean I guess that's only because we are the same size as them. Still, shouldn't you be looking for what we came for?" I asked, but before any of them could answer, an ear-splitting "HEY!" came from behind me. 

I turned to find the fricken Arnold Schwarzenegger of all ape-men. This guy was muscle on muscle. I think each ab had a six-pack, and his head was merged into his shoulders. He wasn't much taller than I was, but I could feel the small shockwaves coming from him pounding his chest.

"That's why we are still here. This bad boy is all yours!" Breth called to me, as I walked forward, but I stopped and turned.

"He is that strong?" I asked Buddy, who had sent me a feeling of warning of immeasurable strength.

Buddy nodded his head and I got goosebumps. 

You know, I took a deep breath and smiled. I really needed this; after getting my ass handed to me by the Vector Blocks, I really needed something I could take my frustration out on. The blocks, the time missed, and just having to jump through all these hoops in the first place.

"Do you have a name?" I asked as I walked up.

"My people call me The Mountain That Stands For The Mountain," The muscle-bound ape said in a surprisingly refined voice.

"Okay, Brick. I'm Hyde, nice to meet you! I hear you like to fight? Me too, me too, but you look pretty strong, so can we take this somewhere else? You know like let's say maybe somewhere you don't love and cherish as much?"
