Cyrus Noble part 22: Omega

What was that they put in me? If the sedative was that strong it would have killed a human being. I woke up in a big metal room. It looked like an arena. I was chained to the wall. On the other side of the room I saw a screen. Bishop came up on it. He said, "Hello again Cyrus. It seems that you are not as invincible as you think you are." I snarled. "How many times are we gonna go through this song and dance Bishop? Don't you get it? I will always win." He shook his head. "I don't think so Cyrus. You see all I have to do is push a button and make you watch as your look-a-like tears your family to shreds. Unless you do what I say." I looked as the screen shifted. It looked like I was looking through someone else's eyes. The person was watching TV. Jazz was resting her head on his shoulder. My heart(s) just jumped to my throat. I saw Viktor coming down the stairs. The person called out in my voice, "Hey, Viktor! How's the whole 'seeing' thing going?" He smiled. "I still see outlines, but I'm good." The screen flicked back to Bishop. I hung my head, defeated. I muttered, "Alright, you win. What do you want me to do?"

He smiled, or at the very least gave a half smile. I guess I'm looking at the real Bishop. He said, "Believe it or not you and your group are not the only ones I have created." As he said this, the door under the screen opened. A girl who was about my age walked through. She was about my height too. She had short blond hair and I thought I saw her eyes glowing pink as well. She wore a black jumpsuit with a pink symbol on the back. I think it was an Omega. The only reason I knew this was because an image of her flashed up on the screen. It spun slowly. Behind her were three more of those Annihilator Cyborgs. Bishop said, "I think I have created the ultimate team. However, to complete their training, they need to kill the one fighter that refuses to die." The chains opened, letting my hands go. He continued, "You should be honored. They've been specifically trained to kill you." They spread out amongst the open grounds of the arena. He said, "Omega! Win this, and you will become invincible!"
