Fight (Ends with... never mind spoilers)
Tony was jolted out of his drowsiness by the horse skidding to a stop. He flew over its shoulders and hit the ground. The horse turned and fled in the opposite direction. Tony stared up the very large robot he had been trying to escape. How had it caught him? Tony threw his hands up in defeat. He was tired of running. Parts of the robot peeled back, and Niko stepped out.
“Finally,” The man hissed, pulling out a knife. Tony made no attempt to escape. Out running him was not an option. His best bet was to fight the man hand to hand. The man grabbed Tony by the shirt and pulled him to his feet, “Any last words?”
Tony spat in Niko’s face, and kicked him the crawch. Niko swore and stumbled back. Tony took advantage of this, and tackled him to the ground. Niko elbowed Tony in the neck and scurried away from him. Tony sat up and looked up as Niko got back in side his robot.
“Coward,” Tony spat, “Why don’t you come out of the robot and fight like a man?”
“Fuck you!” Niko shouted from inside. The robot and stepped forward.
“Oh right, I almost forgot. You aren’t a man. Not a real one anyway,” Tony growled, “No real man hits a kid.”
The suit of armor stopped. Maybe this would work. Tony was to spent to fight Niko while he was in a suit. He didn’t even actually know if he would be able to stand up. The constant wear on tear that his body had been taking over the past week or so was too much. Frankly he didn’t really think he could fight Niko even if he was out of the suit of armor, but he had to try. Tony reached behind him, and grabbed the knife that Niko had dropped.
“What did you just say to me!?” Niko kicked Tony, and he slid across the ground a little way. He held back a groan of pain. He wasn’t going to give Niko that kind of satisfaction. He spat blood out of his mouth. He hoped it was just blood from where he bit his cheek.
“I said, and I am dumbing this down for you, You are a fucking son of bitch, who doesn’t even deserve to eat worm shit!” Tony spat a mouth full of blood at him.
The metal suit grabbed Tony by the shirt.
“You know I was going to kill nice and quick. Spear through the chest, you know nice and easy, but for that comment you are going slowly and painfully,” Niko shouted and the robot head peeled away from his face. Niko spat in Tony’s face, and then threw him to the ground.
“No he won’t,” A voice spoke from behind Niko. Tony peeked around the robot legs, and saw the young girl who had sent him back in time. Niko kicked Tony, and everything blurred and went black for a second.
Tony blinked awake, he had only been out for a few seconds. Niko had gotten out of the suit, and was towering over the small girl who had appeared behind him.
“Oh good, I am glad you showed up, I was hoping I would get the chance to see you again!” Niko was laughing. Tony knew what he was about to do. Tony grabbed hold of the knife and rose to his feet. Mustering every ounce of strength he sprinted toward Niko, and tackled him, just as he was raising his hand to hit the cowering child. He slugged Niko in the face. The girl screamed.
June watched in shock as Stark tackled Niko. Why was he protecting her? She had gotten him into the mess he was in now. The two men rolled about on the ground throwing punches. Stark had dropped the knife he had had in his hand. Niko grabbed it off the ground. June stood still frozen not really knowing what to do, until Stark stumble back with blood running down his arm. Niko jabbed at him, but he expertly unarmed him. Stark dove toward him with the knife. The two men wrestled over it, until finally Stark turned it around. Niko let out a cry of raged pain and stumbled backward the knife sticking out of his stomach. June knew what she needed to do. She opened a portal and Niko stumbled backward into it.
Niko hit the ground. He was suddenly in a very warm jungle looking area. Stark and June were gone. Niko pulled knife out. How the hell was he supposed to get back now? A deep angry growl sounded behind him. Niko turned around and standing above him was a very large velociraptor. It made a chirping sound, and three more appeared. Niko screamed. It opened its jaws wide and leapt at him. Niko’s scream was cut off as its jaws closed around him.
Tony flopped over on his back, exhaustion pouring over him.
“Um, sir?” The girl stepped toward, and he instinctively scooted away. She looked a little hurt.
“Look no offence kid, but I wouldn’t have been in this mess if it weren’t for you,” Tony said defensively.
“No, you'd be dead. Niko was about kill when I portaled you here,” The girl stated. Tony just squinted at her and waved his hand dismissively.
“Well then thanks I guess…” He mumbled.
“Earth- or the future needs you back.”
“Fuck the future. I need sleep,” Tony grumbled and closed his eyes. Maybe he would just sleep here.
“But-”
“Nah-ah! Sleep then dealing with problems,” Tony shushed her and then closed his eyes, and went to sleep right there in the middle of the road.
