Episode 33: Birdie
Cobalt, Draco, and Medic waited inside the Blackbird outside of the abandoned warehouse now destroyed with rubble and smoke coming from it. “This is where Michelle told us to meet right?” Cobalt asked. “Yep” Medic replied, “Right before she ditched us…” Cobalt then looked over at Draco and watched as Draco sat in the pilot seat playing on his phone. “Draco” Cobalt asked Draco, “What are you doing man?” “While we wait for them I am currently creating an app to destroy the other Blackbird Michelle and you took over” Draco explained. “Um…what?” Cobalt asked. Draco then pressed a button on his phone and an explosion was heard in the distance. “Man what the fuck do you invent in your free time?” Cobalt asked. Draco turned and looked at Cobalt and gave him a slight grin. “Ok, good talk” Cobalt said to Draco as he slowly walked behind Medic. Suddenly multiple debris of the abandoned warehouse were thrown to the side. “What the fuck?” Cobalt asked as he looked toward the warehouse. Titus and Michelle could soon be seen running toward the Blackbird. “Is that them?” Medic asked Cobalt. “Yea that’s Titus and Michelle” Cobalt answered as he watched the two run toward the Blackbird. Titus was then seen yelling something but the team could not hear inside the Blackbird. “What is he saying?” Medic asked. “I don’t know” Cobalt replied, “But I’ll go find out.” Cobalt then hit his fist against a button toward the back of the Blackbird and the back hanger door opened. Cobalt then walked off the Blackbird and looked over at Titus and Michelle and yelled, “Hey guys! Took your asses long enough to get-“ “Start the ship!” Titus suddenly interrupted as they continued running. “What!?” Cobalt asked. “Start the fucking ship!” Titus yelled again. “Why!?” Cobalt yelled back. Suddenly behind Titus and Michelle hundreds upon hundreds of cult members ran after them. “Oh shit!” Cobalt yelled as he saw the massive wave of cult members. “Start the motherfucking ship before I get there and kick your fucking ass into the next generation!” Michelle yelled as Titus and her got closer. Cobalt then turned around and ran onto the Blackbird and yelled, “Get this giant bird in the air!” “What’s wrong?” Medic asked as she stood up and looked over to see the giant mob of cultists chasing Titus and Michelle. “Who are they?” Medic asked. “Does it look like I know man!?” Cobalt answered, “Just get this ship started and let’s get the fuck out of here!” “I’m on it” Draco replied as he started the ship, Medic then jumped into the co-pilot seat next to him.
The Blackbird then started to hover into the air as Titus and Michelle approached right behind it along with the mob of cultists. Titus continued to run alongside Michelle and quickly turned and shot three blades at the cultists. “Do you have enough energy to teleport us on?” Titus asked Michelle. “I hardly have enough energy to be fucking running!” Michelle replied. “Fan-fucking-tastic!” Titus yelled, “I have an idea then.” The back hanger door to the Blackbird opened as it slowly flew forward still hovering above the ground. “Come on!” Cobalt yelled as Titus and Michelle continued to run after the Blackbird. “Cobalt, get ready!” Titus yelled. “Ready for what!?” Cobalt asked. Titus then took Michelle’s arm and threw her forward; Titus then telekinetically pushed Michelle forward boosting her at Cobalt. Cobalt’s eyes opened wide as he yelled, “Holy-“ Michelle then crashed into him sending Cobalt to the ground. Medic ran over and moved Michelle off of Cobalt and checked Michelle for wounds. Cobalt then got himself up and walked back toward the edge of the Blackbird hanger. “Come on man!” Cobalt yelled to Titus as Titus continued running. Titus ran and quickly glanced around his surrounding, Titus then stopped running. Titus looked at Cobalt and watched as the Blackbird continued to fly away. Titus then suddenly turned around and ran toward the cult and right before he collided into them he jumped up and started to run against their heads. “What the fuck is he doing!?” Cobalt asked, “He’s going the opposite direction!” “Then so are we” Draco replied as he turned the controls and forced the Blackbird to turn around sharply. Draco then ignited the Blackbird’s boost and launched the Blackbird forward quickly getting closer to Titus. Titus ran along the cultists heads and saw the Blackbird next to him with Cobalt leaning as far as he could off of the Blackbird holding his hand out. “Let’s go bro!” Cobalt yelled and Titus quickly jumped and reached out toward Cobalt’s hand. Cobalt then just grabbed Titus hand, then quickly pulled Titus aboard. “Shut the hanger door!” Cobalt yelled as cultist started to grab onto the Blackbird and climb aboard. Cobalt punched a cult member in the face then punted him off board, Cobalt then Spartan kicked another cult member off. “Cobalt here!” Medic yelled as she threw Cobalt his sword. Cobalt caught his sword then turned and fired a beam and shot two cultists off and then sliced the rest in half with one swing. Cobalt then kicked the remains of a cultist’s body off of the hanger door as the hanger closed. “Get away you fucking Man-Thing” Cobalt yelled as the door closed. Titus breathed heavily trying to regain his breath, his arms keeping him from lying against the floor. Cobalt put his sword down and sat down into one of the seats and looked down at Titus. “Damn man” Cobalt said to Titus, “That was one hell of an intro.” Titus smiled a bit and laughed as he continued to gasp for air. “What were those things?” Medic asked as she continued to help Draco fly the Blackbird back toward the base. “An army of cultists” Michelle stated as she stood up and gained her breath back, “Now move out of my chair bitch.” “Nice to see you too Michelle” Medic replied. “How the hell did you get an army of cultists to chase after you?” Cobalt asked. “You…have to be….” Titus began to say as he slowly got up, “Really…fucking talented.” Titus then walked to the front of the Blackbird and asked Draco, “Alright Draco, so what’s happening next?” “I need to gather upgrades for the Blackbird so I’m dropping myself off nearby” Draco explained. “Michelle will be able to pilot and take the rest of you back to the fortress.” “Alright great” Titus replied, “So where are we getting these upgrades at?” “’WE’, are not” Draco answered, “It’s just me.”
The Blackbird landed on the roof of a building and Draco quickly got off the Blackbird onto the roof and then waved his hand signaling Michelle to take off. Draco watched as the Blackbird hovered slowly into the air, then took off. Draco then turned around and Titus stood there messaging his wrist. “So, where are we going?” Titus asked. “I hate you” Draco replied under his breath. “You and many others!” Titus replied confidently and then patted Draco on the shoulder. Draco rolled his eyes and then began to run and leap across the buildings, Titus instantly followed behind him. Draco ran forward, then jumped onto another building, then grabbed onto a ladder and threw himself up onto the next building. Draco then flew forward through an opened window; then flew up a skyscraper. Titus lay against an antenna on the skyscraper waiting for Draco, eating a cake. “So…what’s up Drac?” “Where did you even get a cake?” Draco asked. “Do not underestimate me and cake” Titus answered. “What does that even mean?” Draco asked. “Exactly” Titus whispered, “Seriously though what the fuck are we doing?” “I’m meeting someone” Draco answered and then dropped off the skyscraper toward the ground of a parking lot. Before Draco landed he spread his wings outward and levitated down silently. Draco then walked forward and Titus suddenly crashed into the ground in front of him and destroyed the ground he landed on. “Shhh” Draco said as Titus stood up straight. “What?” Titus asked, “I’m a loud person.” “Unknown” A voice suddenly said from the shadows, “Is that you?” An older man with a hood then walked out of the shadows, “We usually don’t ever hear you coming.” “Haha” Titus laughed and pointed at the man, “He said coming.” The man looked at Titus strangely then asked, “And who is this shirtless baboon?” “Baboon?” Titus replied and walked toward the man, “Listen here baldy I will take your weak, wrinkly ass and have your spine bend like it did eighty years ago so your lips can kiss it.” Draco suddenly held his hand and wing out to block Titus from advancing forward anymore. “He forced himself along…” Draco replied. “Forced?” Titus asked, “Draco I am your leader, you will show me some respect-“ “And you would be wise to shut your mouth” Draco interrupted. Titus stood there rage fueled with his finger pointed at Draco. Titus then calmed down and backed up. “I apologize for him” Draco said to the man. Titus then held his hands out behind Draco and made a strangling motion. “It is fine” The man replied and then spun his hand in the air. Titus looked up and saw multiple snipers put their guns down from different buildings. “Do you have what is needed for the exchange?” The man asked Draco. Draco slowly opened his wing and grabbed from his back a strange green crystal mechanical device and handed it to the man. The man then opened a case and took out the same mechanical device-except with a blue crystal, then traded it with Draco. Draco opened his wing back up and put the device behind him, then walked away. Titus looked confused at Draco, then looked at the man, then slowly followed Draco as they walked away.
“So um…” Titus began to ask behind Draco, “You want to tell me about senior drug lord and his posy of gunman that we just met?” “There’s nothing to discuss” Draco answered. “Are you sure?” Titus asked, “I’m preeetty sure there’s a lot to discuss.” Draco just continued walking silently. “Like do you know that guy?” Titus asked but Draco still did not answer. “Are you two friends?” Titus continued asking, “Have you known him for a long time? Have you traded things with him for years? Do your parents know you have been doing this?” Draco suddenly stopped walking. “Oh, now what?” Titus asked, “Dude you have hardly said anything while we were here. Look, look” Titus then held up a piece of paper, “You only had about five lines of dialogue! Cobalt has had more, and he’s not even in this episode anymore!” “Do you hear something?” Draco asked Titus. “Dude I’m pretty sure I’d be able to hear something” Titus answered, “I trained myself to hear my surroundings when I was younger.” “Then shut it and listen” Draco replied. “Dude you are very disrespectful today” Titus stated. Suddenly a white portal opened out of the ground and a female figure flew out of it into the air and looked down at Titus and Draco. “And now bitches are flying out of portals!” Titus yelled as he pointed toward the female figure, “Dude you know some weird ass people.” “I don’t know her” Draco stated. “You!” The female figure yelled as she pointed at Draco, “You have gathered something that does not belong to you! Surrender it to me, and all will be forgiven and forgotten.” “Haha hell no!” Titus yelled back. “Titus maybe we should listen to her first” Draco stated. “Be wary of what you say mortal” The female figure replied, “Or I will use my powers to smite thee.” “Smite thee?” Titus tilted his head back and asked, “Where the hell are you from Medieval times?” “I grow tired of your criticism” The female figure said, “I warn you one last time, hand over the object or I will take it by force.” “Draco is that object important to you?” Titus asked Draco. “Yes” Draco replied, “Very much so.” “Very well then” The female figure said, “Prepare to feel the wrath of Birdie.” “Birdie!?” Titus said then began to laugh, “Hahaha what the fuck kind of ALL POWERFUL name is tha-“ Suddenly a chained blade went through Titus’ chest. Titus looked down at the blade in him, “I’m not going to lie this is a pretty bad ass weap-“ Birdie then yanked the chain back at her and Titus was forced into the air toward her; Birdie then flipped forward and kicked Titus to the ground.
Titus got himself up and Birdie wrapped the chained blade around his neck, Birdie then flew into the air and dragged him against multiple buildings. Titus grabbed the chain, then shot a blade out into his hand and cut the chain and then fell downward and crashed into the streets below. “What the fuck lady!?” Titus yelled up to Birdie as he got himself up. Birdie then quickly threw another chain blade at Titus but Titus moved to the side dodging. Birdie then yanked her chain back and threw it at Titus again. Titus dodged it again then quickly moved behind a car. “Alright hopefully this cover can buy me some time” Titus said to himself as he leaned against the car. Suddenly Birdie’s blade impaled through the car door and next to Titus’ face. Titus slowly turned and looked at the blade. Birdie then yanked the chain back and the car flew back and crashed into a building. Titus then ran behind a mailbox and Birdie threw her chain though that and yanked it away. Titus then hid behind a fire hydrant, then a light post, and then rolled with a shopping cart. Birdie yanked all of these things away with her chain and Titus just stood there and looked up at her. “Are you done with that chain?” Titus asked. Birdie then threw the chain at Titus once more and Titus jumped over the blade and the blade crashed into the sidewalk. Titus then started to run up the chain toward Birdie. Titus shot three blades at Birdie but Birdie quickly turned and covered her body with her wings; the adamantium blades just bounced off Birdie’s wings. Titus then shot two blades into his hands and jumped off the chain and went to attack Birdie but Birdie turned to face Titus and took out a spear and whacked Titus with it sending him back to the ground. Titus crashed against the ground again and Birdie took her spear and dove down into Titus driving her spear into him. “You have regeneration” Birdie stated as she walked around Titus. Titus gripped the spear that was impaled into his chest and tried to rip it out, but it was driven through the ground. “The spear weighs over tons and tons” Birdie stated, “Do not bother to try to lift it. Some say it weighs more than the great Mjolnir.” Titus then spit blood out of his mouth. “Killing you is going to take some time” Birdie explained, “But my master has had me fight worse.” Suddenly Draco flew into Birdie and sent her into a building. “Are you ok?” Draco asked Titus. “Where the fuck were you dude?” Titus asked, “Trying to calculate how many times this chick can beat the shit out of me?” “I was trying to trace where she dragged you to” Draco stated, “And one thousand five hundred and thirty seven times to be exact.”
Birdie got up from the rubble of the destroyed building she was thrown in and stared over at Draco. “Give me the source or you will end up like your friend!” “Oh so now it’s a source!?” Titus yelled from the ground, “Now we’re starting to learn the importance of it.” “It would be wise for you to stop your muttering mortal” Birdie stated to Titus. “What?” Titus asked, “I can’t hear you over this GIANT SPEAR MAKING ME A HUMAN SISH KEBAB!” Birdie ignored Titus’ comment and looked back at Draco. “The source is far too great for mortal hands” Birdie explained, “It is not meant to be here.” Draco stood there and did not move or say a word. “Are you deaf mortal or just stupid!?” Birdie asked powerfully. Draco looked down, then made a fist with his hand. “You hurt my friend” Draco suddenly stated as he looked up, “Now prepare to die bitch.” Birdie held her hand back and light appeared as another spear appeared out of thin air. Birdie grasped the spear firmly, then bolted at Draco. Draco instantly grabbed Birdie by the face and smashed her face into the ground. Draco then threw Birdie up into the air and flew into her throwing her back into a building. Titus laid on the ground with the spear still impaled in him and watched the fight between the two. “This is sooo awesome!” Titus yelled, “Kick her ass Draco!” Birdie threw her chained blade at Draco but Draco quickly flew to the side dodging the blade. Draco then took the chain and yanked it forward forcing Birdie to fly forward. Draco then punched Birdie back and then flew into her and carried her though a building. Draco then picked Birdie up and threw her to the ground and fired a lightning bolt out of his mouth at her which struck her and sent her smashing into the ground. Birdie got up slowly as smoke steamed off her body. “You’re good” Birdie stated and Draco smirked. Birdie then threw her chain at Draco and then bolted at him. Draco blocked the chain but Birdie flew up and smashed Draco down to the ground. “But not good enough” Birdie suddenly stated as she flew above Draco. Draco shook his head and then quickly flew back up at Birdie and grabbed her but Birdie kicked Draco back then bolted at him and sent him crashing onto the roof of a building. Birdie then flew onto the building and her chained blade appeared around her and Birdie grabbed rhe chain and started to spin the blade around her body. Draco got himself up and held his claws out and growled at Birdie. Birdie then threw her chain at Draco but Draco dodged it. Birdie quickly yanked her chain back and swung at Draco and Draco blocked the incoming punch, then parried the next. Birdie then swung her blade around her head and Draco ducked under it, Birdie then kicked her leg forward but Draco threw himself onto his back then jumped back up. Birdie then swung her chain again and Draco leaned back just dodging the blade. Birdie then swung her chain multiple times at Draco; Draco moved to the side, then ducked, then parried the blade to the side, then jumped over the blade, then blocked the blade with his claws and instantly ripped the blade off the chain. Birdie stared at Draco and her chain formed around her again with the blade reattached and she smiled. Draco watched the chain reform and then blew his hair out of his face.
