The Path to New Babylon

[Victor Wolfe]

Victor reached the gate out of the city, he spotted his target the Osstel riding on a speeder escaping into the desert beyond the gates. He knew that in such a wide open space he would have no way of catching up to them. He sighed giving up the chase, the bitter taste of defeat in his mouth. “I wonder how the others fared against the thief and that old man" Victor though, he jumped up the gate grasping on to ledges and using his ability to jump great heights to reach the top within a few seconds. He looked over the city of Nippur its people seemed to be calming down ever so slightly Looking towards the market place Victor saw the reason why the thief was incapacitated and being dragged off to what he assumed would be the prison. He also noticed the old man getting into his vehicle much to the apparent annoyance of his fellow New Babylon members, they started to give chase causing a smile to creep over Victors face, he had allowed the rodent to get away but this man would not be so lucky. After all he still had a good amount of rage in him mind from the embarrassment caused by the rodent earlier, and if this old man was going to be an enemy of the state then he was as good a target as any for some well due stress relief

Pressing the button on his belt he activated his stealth waiting for the vehicle to pass bellow him, and with the grace of a gazelle he then dropped down towards the vehicle landing at the middle of the vehicle just behind the main cabin being careful not to make too much noise, once Victor was sure the old man was none the wiser he maneuvered himself over the metal surface the sun making it hot and uncomfortable to the touch., lucky for him there were plenty of areas to grasp onto making his journey across the surface rather quick. From what he had noticed the vehicle seemed to float across the sand on a balloon, it looked soft compared to metal he was moving across. When Victor reached the sloped sides of the vehicle he drew one of his daggers and carefully but precisely lowered his arm keeping a firm grip with one of his legs and his other arm. Reaching the balloon he used all of the strength in his good arm to pierce and rip through the material, he then carefully moved backwards allowing him to rip an even bigger hole in the material. The vehicle started to leak out its contents causing it to start to drop speed at an increasing rate. This allowed Victor to stand up without fear of the wind knocking him off as he looked towards the captain’s chamber hearing grumbling and complaints

The Captain was not happy about these developments clearly noticing a drop in pressure he was already moving towards the gap to try and patch it up. He was clearly suspicious of foul play as he swung his leg aiming a kick at the area he thought Wolfe would be, unfortunately for him Wolfe saw the kick coming and with a burst of movement avoided the blow, unfortunately for Wolfe the Captain did not give up and began swinging his fists wildly, he knew that one blow from those fists could knock him off the vehicle and possibly break a good number of his bones he could not keep up the dodging for too long, rapid burst of acceleration took their toll stamina wise, the pressure started to build , the horrible smell of steam and metal, the heat of the sun burning his skin and the sound of very powerful fists being swung at him forced him to use his ace in the hole to put himself in a better position. he hit his daggers together causing the captain to be blinded temporarily, as the Captain stopped his punching and kicking flurry this allowed Victor a chance to charge energy into his daggers, he took aim planning to deal damage to the arms of the captain hopping to knock him off the Vehicle whist leaving him weakened until his allies arrived.
