Aki's Memory
"Aki!" A muffled scream was heard. "Aki!"

Aki opened his eyes. They stung. The acid was burning his eyes. Aki let out a scream, but that only allowed gallons of citric acid to pour through his mouth and down through into his body. Aki was in excrutiating pain.

"Aki! Oh my god! Aki!"

The acid inside of Aki was burning into his organs, the acid in his eyes had made its way into his veins. The citric acid was circulating around his body via his veins and arteries.
I'm going to die. I'm going to die. I'm going to die!

Present
"I'm going to die!"
Aki bolted upright and hit his head on the roof of the car.
"C-Car?" Aki quietly stuttered.
Zie was driving, Zie had saved him? And he wasn't bleeding any more, the hole in the back of his head had gone, but it felt colder, much more metal-like.
Did Zie do this?

((Aki is obviously a lot more fragile now and is haunted by the memories of his past. I'm trying to go for some development you know? A cliche bad guy tale :D))

Ziebart slammed on the breaks of the old Camaro. It took a few seconds, but stopped in front of a man covering his face while standing in the middle of the road. The airbags would have deployed if they hadn't been set off about three years ago, and now they draped over the steering wheel and the dash board.
"Hey, you there, get out of the road!" Ziebart yelled out of the shattered driver's window (most likely blown out when the sonic boom occured), and noticed Akihide staring blankly out in front of the car. "Hey, you okay, Aki?" Ziebart asked, trying not to sound at all like he was mad about him punching him in the face. The back of Ziebart's head had turned into flesh again and was covered in regrown hair. He'd saved Aki by just being there at the right time. "How's your head?"

[Late at night, residence of cjk]
BENG BONG
"Hello?" he said, answering the door. "I don't recognise you. Who are you?"
"I am an assassin."
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!" Cjkjer gasped, ready to kick the man.
"-to deliver the pizza you ordered, of course."
"Oh," Junpie said, relieved. "Hey wait a second! You're that assassin! You're all over the news! I refuse to eat that cursed pizza!"
"I'm afraid that is not possible, cj... something"
"Huh?"
"YOU JUST ATE IT"
"No I didn't," c to the jk said, confused.
"Oh what the heck," the assassin said, losing his patience. He threw the pizza onto the floor, and instead pulled out an SMG and fired through the cjfacer's head.

Carl stared at the person through the shattered glass of the windscreen. He stood as still as a statue for a few moments, before casually walking up to the bonnet and licking the car.

It tasted bad.

A disgusted expression came to Carl's face, before he simply collapsed to the floor and started rolling on the floor in front of the car like, well...like a madman.

Carl was having a fun day.

CrazE smiled. "Don't worry. He's probably going to be harmless for now. His name is Ziebart. I don't know if he's home yet or not, but it would be nice to find out. He's got some stuff there I want too. And he owes me money..."

CrazE pushed on the pedal harder, jerking the McLaren faster until crazE made a donut into a garage of someone's house. "I think we made it..." crazE said, looking around and stepping out.

Kudamon got out of the car and Blaize leapt out after him. The dog sniffed at the air.

Nobody home, huh? Kudamon thought to Blaize. The dog shook his head. Strange sight. Kudamon almost laughed.

"So, peacekeeper, what exactly are we doing here? And why did you decide to bring me along?" Kudamon asked, lounging against the wall.

[slightly earlier]
"NEWS REPORT! THE ASSASSIN HAS STRUCK AGAIN! A SECOND BODY WAS FOUND-TCHHT!"
"Hmm... I still have no leads on who this assassin is. Not even a mind as great as mine could figure this out without some sort of aid!" the Magma King wandered around the room, lecturing himself.
"Maybe a good drive will clear my head... to the Magmobile!"

-----

The Magmobile sped around the city, leaving trails of flame as it went. MK sat inside, pondering the question in mind; who was this assassin? As he pondered, the Magmobile drove dangerously close to another vehicle.
"HOLY ****!" MK shouted, suddenly realising what he was doing. His foot pressed down on the brakes
as hard as it could, MK desperately trying to avoid any damage to his car. After a tense few seconds, the car finally stopped.
"Phew, that was close," he muttered, looking out his car window. "Hey, move it will you?! You're blocking the road!"

Unlike he had planned, the vehicle did not move in under two seconds, and so left the car. Just as he was about to scream in Ziebart's face and then proceed to punch it, he noticed an insane man rolling around on the road in front of the car.
"Of course! This man is just who I need to solve this case!"

The light suddenly went. Carl stopped rolling and from upside down he stared at a strange man. Well, everyone was strange in this town.

Carl slowly got up and stared at the newcomer. After a few moments he proceded to take an iguana out of his bag O' tricks and he started whackingit violently against the bonnet of the car.

The voices in his head still asked him to stop.

"I'm not going to die?" Aki replied with a slightly gormless look on his face. "The acid, why isn't there acid?"
Then Aki laughed loudly.
" I had you didn't I?" Aki winked as he joked. "But yeah the head's fine, gonna take some getting used to but it should be cool. Oh and shouldn't you just run down that guy who licked your car, it's like he was asking for death."

Aki put his feet up on the dash board and lowered the sun visor.
"I'm going to sleep Zie, wake me up when we get to wherever the hell we're going. We need to do some peacekeeping right? Shoot up some government agents haha."

Oosing confidence, Aki closed his eyes in an attmept to get some sleep.

"Where is everybody?!" Sting said as he rounded yet another corner, "There's bound to be someone around somewhere..."
