《After Life》Chapter 23.2: Blitzkrieg
Advertisement
A large portion of the crowd loves the fact that Cole was just called a liar and now, Justice is marching to confront him, to judge him. They chant, “Justice! Justice! Justice!”
Justice cries out, stopping the chant, “No!! Cole is telling the truth! We need your help! We have to go to the human’s bunker and kill those creatures! We have to stop Death from stealing our lives!”
The crowd becomes silent with astonishment. They were expecting a judgement. This has always been the way. If someone opposed Death, Justice would judge them exposing any wrong doings. Now, she isn’t. It’s the opposite, she is standing against Death, calling him the liar. With the structure of their life shattered, again the deafening bickering returns.
“Danger!”
“From who?”
“From what?”
“Who to trust?”
Finally the sound is wiped out by the shout of Kid Cannon, “Death! Your time has come! I’ve come for you!”
The crowd rapidly opens a path directly to Kid watching him complete a full set of pistol tricks before finally placing them in his holsters. He stands there straight out of a westernor loving every moment. Finally the cinematic standoff setting he’s been craving. Death can’t help but fall into his bellowing psychotic laughter. He too has been craving this moment. The moment to finally let loose. The moment where he doesn’t have to hide himself anymore.
