Walking on thin ice with new and old
Axel went to sleep in his bed having gotten comfortable however he ended up sleeping for about 32 hours and when he woke up it was the evening of the next day. He sat up in his bed and looked at his boot covered feet and his combat pants covered legs. "God what am I doing here still." He said to himself getting up and looking at himself in the mirror but he put his hand in his head and the scream of Frosta when she was being attacked was haunting him even though she told him not to worry about it. He looked at the mirror and punched it shattering it his hand being cut severely and he was bleeding but he didn't care. He went to the kitchen and grabbed a few bottles of alcohol mostly vodka and whisky. He went back to his room leaving a trail of blood droplets. While he was in his room he opened a bottle of vodka and drank it all in one go. He looked at his shattered reflection and kept on drinking. While Axel was drinking the group was in the dining hall eating diner. They were talking about how the day went by fast and how it felt normal. Then one of them brought up Axel making the whole mood went quiet. "Guys we have to discuss about what are we going to do about him. I know he says he wants to go alone but if he does that he'll fail his mission cause he doesn't know Etheria at all." Adora said. "I think we shouldn't interfere with his wishes and let him go alone." Catra argued. "Catra why do you hate him so much?" Bow asked her. "I don't hate him I just don't trust him that much I mean it's clear he's hiding something from us something he won't tell us." She told them. "So you do like him with some trust?" Adora asked her. "Yeah some what but not much after what happened with Frosta." She begrudgingly said. "I think we should help him on his journey it can make it easier for him to go home and for his world to establish trade with ours which is what he said." Glimmer said. "But what about the monsters entering our world?" Mermista asked. "How are we gonna contain them?" Perfuma asked also. "He did say in his world he was with these people called the H.D.M they protected people so maybe they would come help us." Scorpia said. The group had begun to discuss what to do and things they were concerned about when it came to Axel after about 5 minutes of them chatting Axel stumbled into the room holding a half empty bottle of scotch in his bleeding hand and a 2/3 filled bottle of whiskey strapped to his waist. He stumbled in not wearing a shirt only his pants and boots and the group noticed his scarred body and the tattoos on in. "What are you looking at and don't play dumb I know you guys were talking about me." He told them slurring his words drunk off his ass. "Axel how much have you drank?" Bow asked him? "Oh you know 2-4 bottles." He said swigging more scotch as he grabbed himself of plate of food it was just salad and bread and he stumbled to the table almost falling over and dropping his food and the group noticed his bleeding hand. "Hey what happened to your hand?" Glimmer asked him. "I just punched a mirror." He said mouth full of bread. "It doesn't matter I'm fine." He said eating salad well eating was a strong word more drunkenly shoving greens in his mouth as he chewed obnoxiously. "Hey you two you finished that tracker thing?" He asked Hordak and Entrapta. "Yes we did it's amazing how well it turned out." She said handing it to him via her hair he grabbed it. "Thanks I'll get ready to leave right now." He said trying to get up but everyone stopped it. "Yeah no you're staying the night you're too drunk." Bow said. "I'm not drunk you're drunk tank top." Axel slurred his words drinking more scotch. "Ok I think that's enough for you." Glimmer said trying to take his bottle. "Hey don't touch that." He said getting cranky. "No stop give us the bottle." Glimmer said. "No you're not taking 20 year scotch." He said trying to keep it away and it quickly turned into everyone holding dim down and him resisting. He screamed one last battle cry before he just fell to sleep from the alcohol and a mix of Scorpia's tail venom. "Well looks like he is now resting well." Gunner said her and many others hair a mess. "Jesus what is up with this guy?" Mermista said looking at him. "Hey what's that?" Perfuma said picking up something from the floor it looked like a small camera with a screen. Everyone looked at it confused and Perfuma presses a few buttons and it turned on she threw it on the table scared than it began to play a video from the top using holograms. The group looked at it in awe mostly Entrapta. What they saw was a few men in black soldier like uniforms. "Alright men the mission is simple we have to infiltrate the compound take control of the scientist and rescue any possible hostages." They heard a man say in a similar uniform and saw the camera man and they quickly realized it was Axel. "Alright lets move." They heard the leader said and they saw the vehicle he was in stop and they saw the group of 14 get out of the truck and run to the large house in front of them. They saw axel and a few soldiers go to a glass door and they saw Axel bang the glass door. "POLICE DEPARTMENT SEARCH WARRANT, POLICE DEPARTMENT SEARCH WARRANT!" They heard him yell and then one soldier break the door with a large battery ram device and one threw in a grenade looking device that caused a bright slight appear for a second and the group went into the building. "Room clear." They heard one say the group looked around and they went around and after about 2-3 minutes. "First floor clear half upstairs half downstairs go go go." They heard the captain say they axel went with the group downstairs. "GSPD COME OUT WITH YOUR HANDS UP!" Axel yelled as he and other soldiers cleared rooms. Then they heard screaming coming from a room at the end of of the hall and the group went to check on it Axel and another soldier taking point while the others looked in other rooms they passed. That's when Axel went to the door and tried opening it but couldn't. "Thermite!" He yelled and another soldier went and place a box in the metal door and it began to spark and when it stopped Axel kicked in the door and what they saw made them sick to their stomach even the people in the video. What they saw was a large room like a gymnasium and it was filled with humans in horrible shape. What they saw was a man near a pool of water who had his body sown and messed up too look like a walrus a few people who were were sown together to make a human centipede a few people who had extra limbs attached to their bodies others who were sown or fused together in horrible ways and in the center was a man in a lab coat. "GSPD PUT YOUR HANDS UP IN THE AIR!" Axel yelled trying not to gag at the sight. "You will not stop my goal to make glorious creations." The doctor said and walked towards them. "I'll start by making you all into my next project." The doctor said and ran towards them with a knife but Axel had a quick trigger finger and shot the doctor in the chest. "Ya well hope they like your art in hell." He told the doctor putting a bullet in the doctors head 7 times. "What are we going to do about all of them?" A soldier asked an axel looked at them then at the people and he went to the human centipede and looked at them with a look and they nodded and the group saw in horror as Axel put a bullet in each one of the peoples head. He went to each one of the poor people and mercy killed them. "It's for the best them they would suffer." He told the soldiers and the group left the gymnasium. They saw the video cut out when Axel went into the truck again. The group just stood there in silence and realized they're going into a rabbit hole. "We should leave this alone." Adora said and everyone slowly nodded afraid of what they'd see next. "So that's what he meant by his world being evil." Scorpia said. "He talked to you about it?" Catra asked. "Yeah he did he said it was full of monsters and mutants I guess monster could have meant the people also." She said. That's when they saw Axel sit up. "They're here." He muttered. "Who?" Glimmer asked and then they heard Frosta's voice. "Hey guys what's going on?" They heard her voice. "Voice devils." He said and they all looked confused except Scorpia who looked scared. "Hey Axel." A voice devil said pouncing on him trying to bit into his face. Before anyone could do anything two more voice devils appeared and growled at them and tried bitting a few. That's when the one on Axel was shot and killed it's head practically exploded. That's when Axel saw another voice devil pounce at him and tried to bit his face but Axel moved his arm and it bit arm causing him to yelp. Before anyone could help him a man who looked to be about Axel's age with a large battle axe cut off the voice devils head. When the other voice devil ran to the man he took out a sawed off double barrel shotgun and shot both shells killing it. Axel looked at the man and sighed. "Mathew." He said and the blond man tried to stab him in the face with the axe but axel dodged it and kicked him in the face. He then tackled him and punched him in the side continuously until he was kicked off by an older lady in her 50s-60s. "Linda." He said and tried to tackle her but she dodged him and when he tried to punch her she grabbed his wrist and arm and threw him into the wall and then grabbed his ankle and should and flipped him over onto his back. She then put a large sniper rifle to his face and he got ready for his fate but. "FOR THE HONOR OF GRAYSKULL!" Adora said becoming She-Ra and pointing her sword at Linda while The other surrounded her and Mathew. Linda tried to pull the trigger but Axel moved the barrel of the gun enough to the side of his head where it just barely missed him and hit the floor. Linda realizing she can't load another shot or take out her sidearm and put the rifle down. Axel got up and looked at the two. "Alright Linda, Mathew pleasant surprise seeing you both." He said. "Now let's talk." He said pulling out two chairs for them and one for himself. The two looked at each other nodded and sat down at the same time as him. "Why did you try to kill him?" She-Ra asked but they didn't answer. "Adora that's not how it works." Axel told her. "How's working treating you both?" He asked them. "Fine and how's work treating you?" Mathew asked. "Oh ya know pays decent and I get health insurance when I leave." He said. "Now enough small talk. How'd you both come here." He asked. "A portal was opened up. Why are you here?" Linda answered and asked. "Just doing some work. Why'd you come here and attack?" He said and asked. "This." Mathew said and put out a small holographic pad and it displayed a bounty on Axel offering fifteen million dollars for him dead or alive. "Who put this up?" He asked. "I think you already know." Linda told him and Axel looked up and sighed. "Listen the three of us are decently good at heart and I have a proposition for you both." He told them and they had peek interest. "Listen let's say you don't accept this bounty and help me with my work and I can pull the right stings and have you both paid handsomely from royalty." He said and they laughed. "How are you gonna do that?" Mathew asked. "We're in a castle and the Queen is right next to us. Now are you in or out?" He asked and they looked at each other. "If you can pull the right strings we'll take you up on the offer." Linda answered. Axel nodded and stood up. "One moment please." You with me." He said looking at Glimmer and he took her into the hall. "Glimmer you must do this for me." He told her and she looked shocked at his determination. "Why should I?" She asked. "Listen Queen Glimmer these two are like me the best of the best but they are even better than me in some aspects and I'm better at others." He told her. "How do I know they won't take the money kill you and take the other money?" She asked. "The job they have isn't the most glamorous but it's built on the foundation of deals you strike up the better deal and they accept they can't back out of it." He told her. "How much will I be paying?" She asked. "Well the bounty on me is fifteen million but they'll have to share so if you double it to thirty million so each gets fifteen I'm sure they'll accept but they might negotiate for a better deal." He said. "Alright let's hope you can strike up the better deal." She said and they both entered the room again. Axel sat down and looked at them both. "I'll offer you both thirty million dollars so each one of you get fifteen million." He told them. "Forty million but the last teen comes from your pocket." Mathew said. "That and since we're in a castle we each get private room anytime we come here." Linda said. "That and every morning we work together you have to make your coffee." She added. "Jesus anything else? What would I get out of this deal?" Axel asked. "We can guarantee most of are associates won't hunt you down that and all won't hunt your friends down." Linda said. "So forty million last ten comes from me private rooms and coffee every morning.... that's doable." He said looking at Glimmer and she hesitantly nodded. "Alright I think we have a deal." He said and they shake hands. Axel stands up and looks at the princesses and company. "Well looks like we got more to the team." He said before he was dragged into another room by the princesses and friends and he was thrown into the room and they confronted him. "What the hell you have a bounty on your head and you know who put it on your head?" Catra said confronting him. "Yeah this is such a twist like in Mer-Mistory iss-." She was cut off. "Not now for that." Bow told her. "But dude I thought you said they wanted to close the portals not bring people in to hunt you down." He said. "What's really going on?" Glimmer said practically ordering him. "Fine I'll tell you.... my mission here was to scout and secure areas to establish trade but." He said. "But what?" She asked and everyone got annoyed. "But not everyone had the same idea you see my world we're dying running low on resources anything new found is immediately contested over in brutal wars. So when wind got out that we my company was making a portal to another world when others wanted in so they can come invade and take resources. Those who come evilly won't care who or what stands in their way they'll just kill to get what they want for their own power. However I can tell you all will fight back so basically my new mission is to stop an inter dimensional war from braking out." He said to the shock of everyone. "So you having a bounty on your head is them trying to stop you." Hordak asked impressed by the idea. "Yep it is but we got three great assassins on our side now." He said. "Listen I know you all have very little trust in me and that I'm walking in thin ice but I'll need help to get around your world to stop this war from happening." He said looking at them his eyes practically begging. "Fine you've bought yourself some time for now." Glimmer said to him as everyone agreed that they'll help him. "Wait you said three great assassins who's the third if the other two are in the other room?" Bow asked him confused and everyone looked at Axel confused also. "This guy." He said pointing to himself with his thumbs. "Can we get a return on that?" Catra asked. "Nope." He said looking at her with a smirk also as we walked to Linda and Mat. "So when do we work?" Mat asked. "Were already working." Axel answered.
