Collide: Two Realities Become One

part 24: First encounter

"Be on a comfortable position and stand stiff this thing has some knockback.. aim for your target, your eyes on the scope this black thing that covers one of my eye, make sure nobody is behind you, pull the trigger- and!!"

Clicking the trigger the rocket launcher fired a high explosive rocket that zipped through the air letting out a deafening boom that caused the crows to fly away on the nearby trees. The rocket hit its target and it exploded in an instant turning the boulder to rubble. Behind alex was a shockwave lifting the dust off the ground and it danced on the air. The elves were amazed by the power the MK rocket launcher holds more firepower than all of their weapons in possession.

Kio was left speechless, he felt a sudden surge of shock a frightened aura flow within him like he was directly threatened by alex. He tried to stand as a tough man but whatever alex has is by far more greater and more powerful than whatever he has, alex for kio's sight was like a one man army.

Meanwhile alex stood up with a smile on his face turning to the shocked elven warriors, "alright! Anyone up to try this thing? Ill only allow it once because we're gonna be wasting ammo if all of you wanted to try."

A hand raised up on the crowd and one of kio's boys made his way to the front the only one willing to try out the weapon. Alex told him to come close, turning to lelei who was near the hood of the humvee.

"Give me another rocket.."

Lelei picking up another fresh rocket pod, alex removed the used up one and discarded it. Lelei walked up to alex and handed him the rocket and attached it on the launcher.

Then he turned back to the elf who was waiting to test out a new toy that isnt a normal bow and arrows.

"Two fingers.. like that.." alex whispered to him, remembering what alex instructed seconds ago he got into a pron position and alex adjusted him.

Resting the launcher on his shoulder he aimed using the scope. He looked behind him and held a deep breathe.. but nothing happened.

"Um you need to.." alex pointed at the trigger, "you need to pull that little lever."

The elf did as alex said, he closed his eyes and pulled the trigger of the launcher. The same thundering boom and the shockwave pushed back whatever is behind the elf. Everyone was still in amazement except kio, he thought it was inhumane and dishonorable to whoever that weapon was used against and he couldn't contain his disapproval.

"Something like that is a weapon of a coward.. seems those al khazarians died a dishonorable death and i am expecting alot of good things from you green men, but im left with rats who dont even know how to fight a real war.." kio spoke out catching everyone's attention.

"Kio.." yao said.

"It is not honorable sister.. for what i see this man right here has no respect to their enemy, these weapons of mass destruction is a work of a demonic tribe which what i view YOU" kio pointed at alex.

Alex meanwhile just remained quiet while the crowd protested against kio's words.

"Kio this man is here to save us have some respect!" One of the elves spoke.

Kio scuffed, "Give respect to someone who doesn't have remorse to their enemy? You wish.. he's nothing but a coward who hides away from the face of an enemy." Kio then turned to his men, "as for us.. we are battle hardened elves.. we are more honorable than you and we are basically better than you despite how powerful you guys ar-"
