The force of Jack's punch tore a gaping hole into the left side of the towering GM. "Oh, you’ve got to be fucking kidding me," Jack muttered as the GM lunged at him in a fit of rage.
With lightning speed, the GM clenched its massive fists and brought them crashing down. Jack managed to evade the attack by rolling away, and he quickly urged everyone to evacuate the forest and head back to the checkpoint.
As they sprinted through the thick undergrowth, Jack glanced over his shoulder and was relieved to see that the GM wasn't pursuing them.
Once they reached safety, the group caught their breath, and the coroner inquired about the harrowing encounter. "We were attacked by a seven-foot-tall GM," Jack explained between breaths.
Perplexed, the coroner pressed for more details. "Where did this GM come from?"
Struggling to regain his composure, Jack gasped, "The goo... the black goo from dead GMs fused together, giving rise to that monstrous entity. We tried everything, but nothing seems to damage it."
The coroner noticed how pale Jack’s skin was and asked him to sit down and take deep breaths, but there wasn't any time for rest as Jack’s wristwatch started beeping, indicating he was getting a call.
“What is it Kairi?”
Kairi, who sounded as though she was in trouble, replied, “Jack! We're needed at District Five; Jackles and civilians are fighting each other.”
“What!? Is Stallone or Harrison there?”
“Don’t think so. Just hurry up and get here.”
The call between the two ended after Kairi finished her sentence. Jack asked to commandeer one of the soldier's vehicles, who was more than happy to let Jack borrow their truck. He instructed Anakin, Troy, and Ellie to get in as they were needed at District Five.
While driving to District Five, Jack not only told the three why they were heading there and that this time to gather their breaths as once they arrived it would be nonstop chaos but also called his father to let him know what happened in the forest.
Jack: “Dad! We're currently en route to District Five to help Kairi and Asuka.”
Harry: “Good. I take it Kairi called you?”
Jack: "Yes, but there is something that you need to know.”

Harry: “What is it, Jack?”
Jack: “We’ve encountered a new variation of the GMs; this one is formed by the black goo from dead GMs. It created this tall, massive GM that isn’t affected by our swords or our guns, but I was able to punch a hole in the left side of its face with my left arm.”
Harry: "Right, I'll get people reaching this. Once you're finished with District Five, you’re all needed back at base.”
In District Five, the scene was one of utter chaos and destruction. The once orderly streets were now a battleground, with overturned and burning cars adding to the apocalyptic atmosphere.
Broken windows and the sounds of gunfire filled the air as a fierce battle raged between the Jackels and the local civilians. Both sides seemed evenly matched, with the Jackels utilizing firearms against the unarmed civilians, who, in turn, showed remarkable resilience and ferocity in fighting back.
The civilians, driven by desperation and courage, charged at the Jackel soldiers, engaging them in physical combat.
Some of them managed to disarm the soldiers, bravely turning the tables and using the seized weapons to return fire. It was a harrowing and intense struggle as the civilians refused to yield, despite the overwhelming odds stacked against them.
“Crap that civi’s got my weap." One of the Jackel soldiers said before getting shot in the head.
“You're fucking with the wrong people, you fucking terrorist assholes,” a brave civilian said while punching a Jackel soldier who was on the ground.
Asuka and Kairi were very busy helping the civilians who weren’t looking for a fight and were hiding from the Jackel soldiers, then fighting the Jackel.
As the sound of the approaching truck commanded by Jack grew louder, the twin's spirits lifted. When the truck finally arrived, Jack, Troy, Anakin, and the others disembarked and immediately began urging civilians to seek safety.
With no time to lose, Jack, Troy, and Anakin swiftly engaged the Jackel soldiers in combat. Troy deftly wielded his energy sword and handgun, punctuating each victory with a quick-witted remark, while Anakin focused on using his sword to take down the Jackels. Jack, utilizing both his sword and his powerful left arm, effortlessly subdued the Jackel soldiers with forceful takedowns.
Soon, Asuka, Kairi, and Ellie entered the fray, providing crucial support to the boys. Ellie maintained a distance, picking off Jackel soldiers from afar, while Kairi and Asuka combined their speed and teamwork to swiftly dispatch their opponents, ensuring that the Jackel soldiers had no chance to regroup or counterattack.
However, the fight wasn't over yet, as the civilians who were fighting the Jackels didn’t appreciate the assistance and claimed.
“We had it covered!” One yelled.
"Look, we’re just helping out, that’s all,” Jack replied.
“Well, we didn’t ask for your help, did we?”
"Listen, we had a job to do, that’s all.”
A very familiar voice made its appearance. “And they said they didn't need your help.”
Jack turned around, looked up, and said, “You!”
The stranger on the roof was none other than Crow. “Me!”
He jumped to the ground before continuing, “I’ve got to give credit where credit’s due. These people show so much courage; it's amazing. Express yourself, sir! Yes, you in the Metallica t-shirt, you have one hell of a right hook.”
The man in the Metallica smiled at Crow’s comments.
“You’ve got some nerve showing up here. You masked cunt!”
Crow laughed at Troy’s comment, “Oh-ho-ho, please call me Crow. Now are we going to fight, as it was pretty obvious that last time, we fought I was holding back. I trust that you're going to give me your all.”
