《Loki’s Successor System 》Chapter 92: Three Days of Happiness (3)
Advertisement
The bikers all bolted toward Jin, Ashton, and Benji—who all stood there, unmoving. Suddenly, Benji rushed toward the lunging bikers, and pounced into the air. It gaped its mouth, and slammed its draw shut, shredding a rider's body asunder. The bike had then zoomed off course.
Benji was not done there. He landed on his four legs, subtly skating in the wet road. Another bike was coming straight for it. However, it quickly disappeared, leaving the biker confused. The biker looked back, given that he had just drove past the very spot the creature stood. Then, he looked forward again, focusing his attention on Jin and Ashton instead, since, they were now the easiest to hit. "I've got you now!"
Jin dashed forward. The bike missed his body—off by a few inches. He simply raised his hand over the bike, and his arm wrapped around the rider's neck. Out of control, the bike pitched toward Ashton. Jin looked back in shock. He had forgotten about Ashton.
Jin was about to go save Ashton, when suddenly Benji appeared in front of him. Benji knocked Ashton out of the way, with a tad too much power. The bike then came crashing into it. It whined. Ashton was going to be knocked into a wall. When out of nowhere, Jin appeared, grabbing him by the back of his shirt, holding his body up with a single hand.
Ashton was back on his feet again. He looked at Jin. Jin was swathed in blood. Strangely, he also held a bat to his side. "Thanks," Ashton said, panting. "I thought I was a goner there."
Jin smiled, putting out the bat for Ashton to take. "Here, use this. Let's have a little bit of fun, shall we?"
Nervous, Ashton took the bat. "O-okay I guess … but," his eyes widened, "behind you!"

Without turning around, Jin sidestepped, and the bike went speeding past him. He then closed his right fist, and a glowing, green dagger manifested.
Alas, he hurled the dagger at the biker; who had only just passed them.
The dagger had penetrated the man's head, throwing the entire bike off the road.
Ashton held the metal bat in his hand, shaking.
Jin peered at him. He placed a hand upon his shoulder. "Hey, Ashton … there is nothing to be scared of. We," Benji appeared next to him, "won't let you get a scratch," Jin's voice trailed off as his smile took its place.
Ashton still looked scared out of his mind. Having seen this, Jin suddenly grabbed Ashton. Ashton panicked. "Jin? What are you doing!?"
Jin suddenly began to run, Benji pursuing his path. Ashton's feet started to move on their own; given that Jin was running while holding him.
"Ash, when we relocate, I want to swing that bat with all the might you have in those arms. I won't let you get hit—we … won't let you get hit," said Jin, focused.
Ashton managed to relax. He sighed. He was paranoid. But then he had somehow pulled off consoling himself. He nodded at Jin's words, furrowing his brows. "I'm ready!"
Jin teleported. Concurrently, Ashton raised the bat, and quickly swung, knocking a rider to his helmet. The impact from the speed at which the bike moved, in conjunction with the force Ashton had exerted onto the bat, knocked the biker off the bike.
Jin teleported to safety again. "That it's! Just like that, Ash. That's how you do it!"
Ashton perked up. "I did that? Did I just take down a bad guy?"
Jin smiled. "Yeah, you just took down a bad guy."

Ashton smiled. "Oh, yeah!" he thrust a hand in the air. Euphoric. As he lowered his arm again, he said, "C'mon, Jin. There are two of them coming our way. Let's take them down. All of 'em."
Jin looked at him for a while. It took a few seconds for his smile to reappear. "Alright," he grabbed Ashton's shirt, and started running. "we're at it again."
Running with profound speed; Jin had noticed just how fast he's become. He smiled; and shifted his attention to the battle again. "Ashton, there's something you need to know about my teleportation."
"Yeah? What's that?" Ashton asked, quizzically. He retained his focused look. Faintly furrowed brows. Unblinkingly eyes. Determination.
"The teleportation skill allows me to remove myself from space and then finally relocate," said Jin, "to teleport more than myself; I am required to touch an object of choice.
"Should something stop us from being in physical contact; try your best to touch any part of my body again or you risk being hit."
"Got it," blurted Ashton immediately.
Jin glimpsed back at him; smiling. "Here goes …"
A biker was coming straight for them. Jin teleported. Ashton swung. However, the blow didn't suffice to knock the rider off his seat. And so, Jin had teleported again; targeting the very same rider as before. Ashton swung again; with all his might.
The biker was thrown in the opposite direction of his bike. Jin targeted another biker; disappearing and reappearing right in front of him. The warping, sonorous sound exploded in Ashton's ears like the exhaust of a rocket engine. While at the same time, the noise sounded as if the entire universe was being sucked into a capsule. Ashton clenched his teeth. From the time he heard this ineffable sound; he swung, knocking the rider to his head.
Jin perked up. "Perfect! You're nailing this, Ash. When's you learn to swing like that?"
Ashton's face flushed, but just mildly. "When did I learn? I'd say about a few focused seconds ago, which I most definitely would never forget. Something to forget is this conversation, 'cause I wanna go back to smashing some clone heads. Look, at our twelve—another biker."
Jin smiled. He was also having a great time. "The bikers won't stop coming unless we take out the redhead. Wanna keep going endlessly; or do you prefer to end it now?"
"Sucker," Ash blurted again, excited, "I'm gonna be at this all night!"
Jin smiled; shaking his head.
Ashton was filled with joy. Filled with euphoria. Having his happiest days of his life. The cops were on their way to his location; and he did know that. But this much fun? To put things simply, this happiness made the careful guy not care at all.
Who'd ever thought smashing head with a stolen metal bat would be so much fun?

A Nerd's Wet Dream Come True (Tossing an OC into Marvel)
John was an average man. At least that's what he tells himself at night. He lived in a rented apartment in the decent district, a well-paying job, and more student debt than he cared to think about being steadily paid off. Yet he was absolutely miserable. He spent his days living like a zombie, a slave in all but name to corporate. His only joy these days it seems was reading comics and writing fanfics. SI ones. Choke full of power fantasies and large harems. Yeah, even he had to admit he was a loser. His only redeeming feature seemed to be his photographic memory and the library's worth of comics and books he has read. Yet, when fate took pity on him and had John transported into the Marvel Universe, he was only all too happy to oblige. A second chance to make something of himself. Is he going to finally have the comfortable life he wanted? Will he laze away relying on his past life's knowledge or does he want more this time? Will his ambition and hard work lead to sweet fruits, or will it rot away in the darkness hiding beneath the colorful costumes of the hero's society? Now with crossovers! Be warned if you don't like to see OCs messing up the timeline or DC and other stuff showing up. I swear I'm not randomly adding stuff and there is a legitimate (as far as comic books and fanfics can be) plot reason why. (I'll be honest, I don't know "cannon" marvel really... I watched some movies and animated series as a kid, but I haven't picked up a comic in years. This is just some light-hearted and casual writing for fun. If there are any errors or something you think would be cool please let me know.) I'm also trying to have multiple main characters so that might be jarring for some people while I switch perspective. Sorry in advance, I'm new at this and idk what I'm doing, advice and feedback gladly welcomed!
