Carter stands in The Boss’s chamber his metal laced arms crossed over his chest.
“What’s the plan now? Half our team got themselves locked up.” He asks as General Hicks walks into the room.
“That’s a damn good question, son” he adds as he walks up beside Carter.
The Boss spins around in his chair to face them both “Now we send our army into the streets” He replies coldly.
“If Beamer and Scorpion couldn’t get the job done there’s no way those wimps can handle it”
“Yeah” Hicks adds “This Enforcer guy beat us down”
Carter interjects “I had a run in with him last night too. He needs to be taken out. I’ve seen what he can do and he is still no match for me. Let me at him!”
The Boss stands up in a huff “You don’t tell me how to run my mob! You do what I tell you to do!” He looks at them with a wildly sadistic grin “This is all part of the plan”
Carter and Hicks both look at each other with dread at The Boss’s nightmarish demeanor. They both turn and walk out the door together.
Moments later Carter and General Hicks are standing in the large room just outsaide of The Boss’s chambers.
“Ya fought this guy last night?” Hicks asks intrigued “How’d ya get away from ‘im?”
Carter turns his head looking at Hicks and says “I was just toying with him” with a smirk on his face. “Come on” Carter says as he heads for the door.
Hicks puts one hand on his hip and takes a puff from his cigar with the other “Where we goin?”
“We’re gonna raise some hell” he replies as he turns his head to the side.
“What if this guy shows up again?”
Carter turns around to look at him with a stern face “Not loosin your nerve are ya, General?” He turns back around and continues to walk to the door “After the beating he just took, he won’t be around for a while”.
Hicks hurries to catch up as Carter exists the building.
Hicks bursts through the door to the empty lot and sees Carter sitting in the passenger side of his newly acquired jeep
“Get in Hicks”
Hicks walks over to the side of the jeep and lifts himself into the driver’s seat. He bends down to start it up, flicking the two wires together. The jeeps starts, Hicks puts it into gear and off they go. Carter's hair flows in the wind as they speed out of the lot and down the street.
“That’s why I wear a helmet” he says jokingly.
“Why is that?” Carter turns his head to see hicks looking at him.
He replies with a laugh “To keep my hair from blowin in the wind”
Carter looks at him with a smile “Just drive, old man”
Hicks laughs at him as they pass by a busy intersection.
“Stop the car Hicks”
The vehicle slams to a stop just past the intersection and Carter jumps out.
“Watch this gramps, ya might learn a thing or two” He says as he runs toward the passing cars.
Upon getting to the intersection he heads for an old camero. Bringing his arm close to the ground he swings it out to the side hitting the muscle car just under the bumper launching the front of it up in the air, ripping the bumper and part of the frame. The young man jumps out of the car and begins to run but his legs fly up in the air as a bullet courses through his head. Carter turns to see the kid’s body land on the ground just as his car does. Hicks is sitting on the hood of the jeep, his foot resting on the hood and the other dangling in front of the vehicle.
“Nice shot” he calls out.
“That’s how it’s done, boy” he boasts as he takes a puff of his cigar and reloads his rifle.
Carter turns back around and grabs another car by the two front tires. Lifting with his unbreakable hands he lifts the entire car off the ground and tilts it sideways in the air. He begins to shake it up and down trying to force the people out. A man climbs out of the driver side window and tries to jump off the car but he is shot down in mid air with a bullet through the chest. His body hits the ground as a woman falls out of the passenger window. Carter lifts the car over his shoulder like a baseball bat. The woman gets up and is about to run when Carter swings the car back around hitting her with it. She flies through the air over the General’s head.
“Home run!” He calls out with a laugh.
Carter then throws that car down the street the other way. Both villains watch as the car slams into the side of an oil truck almost a block away causing it to explode. The driver just barely makes out of the truck before it goes off only to be sniped in the back of the head by Hicks. Carter moves toward a small truck. Hicks looks down to the left and notices the woman Carter hit with the car crawling across the ground. He calmly pulls out his eagle and points it at her. Firing a shot hitting her in the back, finishing her off.
Carter grabs the red truck by the side he pulls the passenger door off it’s hinges and tosses it to the side. He reaches in and grabs the driver throwing him up in the air. A shot goes off hitting him in the knee cap, followed by another going right through his heart as his body falls to the ground. Carter crushes the truck up into a giant ball of metal and throws it on the ground. Just then they notice a loud noise in the distance
“What is that?” he asks looking around.
Hicks quickly replies “It’s a tank!”.
Carter looks off into the distance but nothing is there “How do ya know? I can see anything” he states.
“I can tell by the sound”
The tank pulls over the hill over looking the carnage.
“This is General.....” a voice calls out. But before he can finish his body collapses to the ground.
Carter spins around to look at Hicks who brings his rifle down from his face.
“I’m the only General round these parts”
Carter was amazed that Hicks could make a shot like that. That tank must be 10 blocks away he thinks to himself. Hicks stands up on the hood of the jeep and walks over to the windshield. Carter watches him bend down over the windshield into the jeep.
“What the hell you doin Hicks?”
Hicks brings himself back up holding a bazooka. He steps to the middle of the hood and kneels down on one knee. Resting the bazooka on his shoulder and closing his left eye he aims for the tank and pulls the trigger. Carter watches as the missile soars over his head. Hicks brings his weapon down and sits it on his knee to watch. A faint *ting* sound can be heard as the missile pierces the tank’s armor and then explodes blowing it to bits.
“Ha ha! That’s the shit right there!” Hicks calls out in glee as he tosses his bazooka back into the jeep.
Carter watches on, impressed with his friend’s talents.
Two army choppers can be seen in the air headed in their direction. The choppers begin to close in nearly ninety yards away. Hicks picks up his rifle which he dropped on the hood of his vehicle. He brings it up to eye level aiming his shot. He waits for a few seconds then pulls the trigger. The invincible bullet flies through the air directly at the chopper. The pilot smiles, amused at the pathetic attack. The bullet tears through the metal chopper hitting the pilot directly in the head killing him instantly. The chopper begins to lose control.
Two soldiers jump out in an attempt to save themselves, both are dispatched by Hicks’ awesome marksman skills. The first is killed with a head shot. The second, with two well placed shots cutting through his parachute lines as it opened. Carter quickly picks up the red silver ball of metal that used to be a truck and hurls itinto the air. It soars into the other chopper causing it to crash into the first. The out of control chopper blades cut through the other chopper cause them both to explode, the flaming debris falling to the ground forty yards away.
“Now that was fun” Carter says as he jogs over to the jeep.
Hicks with a laugh agrees “Hell yeah it was!”
Both men jump into their vehicle and peel away laughing.
