Nanami looked down at herself and sneered. While her wounds had already closed, the acid from her blood had eaten through the fabric he shirt leaving large spaces of uncovered skin leaving her modesty in a precarious state at best
“Damn it,” she growled, “This was my favorite shirt.”
“What are you?!” Carthy exclaimed.
Nanami’s eyes narrowed, and she pressed her finger into the blood that covered her skin.
She slowly walked toward Carthy, a nasty smile on her face, and a suggestive swing to he hips.
Carthy tried to turn away but Ranma threw him back against the wall.
Nanami smirked and looked him in the eyes.
“What am I good, doctors?”
She wiped her blood covered finger across his face. Carthy screamed in agony as her blood burnt into the flesh of his cheek.
She sneered and lifted him by the neck with her other hand.
“You should know what I am!” she roared. “You and your projects made me like this.”
“How did this happen… what turned you into a hybrid!?”
Nanami laughed. “I see, ever the freak show major domo… fine, I’ll tell you.”
She sneered, “I escaped the labs, but was infected with the T-virus. The boosters, were all destroyed and I was dieing, but these two came across me, and rather than let me die, they transformed me into one of them.”
“How… how is that possible.”
“I do not know,” Nanami stated, “But once we’re gone and your long dead, I’ll make sure to poke at myself a bit and see how I tick.”
“You sold your humanity to survive and now your going to kill me!” Crathy sneered, “You’re no less a monster now than the creatures that killed your brother.”
Nanami’s eyes narrowed. “That may but I am still far more human than you ever could aspire. I have more contempt for you than I do any freak on this base… and besides, I feel great.”
Carthy blinked. “What?”
“I have never felt so healthy in my life. I’m far stronger, far faster, and considering the nature of these modification I am likely biologically immortal. I consider it amusing that while the Company has invested billions in finding a secret to eternal youth, something your rich clients would pay out the ass for, it just zips by you in a pitiful attempt to create the better bug. Just think how rich you could have been if you were only not such an incompetent close minded piece of subhuman garbage.”
“Nanami...,” Kodachi growled.
“Don’t worry,” Nanami cut in. “I’m just giving this subhuman something to lament about in the short span of time between now and his painful death.”
Kodachi smiled. “Can I kill him?”
Nanami shook her head. “No.”
“No one is killing nobody!” Ranma added.
Nanami smiled at the male of her species. “Don’t worry. I’m not going to kill him.”
Nanami let Carthy go, who visibly relaxed.
The man sighed. “Thank god…”
A Savage smiled came to her face, and she struck at him. She kicked his legs out from under him, sending the researcher to his knees, and struck him in the lower back with a wet snap.
“ARGH! I can’t feel my legs!”
“Nanami!” Ranma exclaimed.
“Oh, I’m just going to leave him for his pets.”
“Please… no….” he muttered.
Nanami began to rummage through his pockets and glanced at him. “I found your boc of stolen lives. I want you to remember the faces of all the people you killed who bagged you just that before you die. You earned this.”
She paused, and stood up after looking through his pockets. She walked over to the discarded pistol, and lifted it up. Carefully she removed the magazine and took every bullet, leaving only the one round in the chamber. She smiled and handed it to him.
“I’m going to have some level of mercy, and leave you with a way out. One bullet, all you need to end your own life, but waste it and you’re at the tender mercy at your own creations. I wonder, will you die of terminal chest pain, become one of the walking dead, or maybe Eve will run across you…”
“You bitch. You monstrous bitch.”
“Such harsh language,” Nanami chuckled. “If I were you I’d shut up and take it like a man before I take your cowards way out.”
Nanami turned to the others. “Lets go.”
Ranma and Kodachi looked at on another and than began to leave.
As they walked away, Carthy could only look at the gun in his hand and weep.
