Because he was on the third and final floor and was outside the last room in the passage, he was very close to the wall of the building.
*STEP*He quickly went over to the wall and gave it a couple knocks with his ear gently pressed against it, trying to listen to the sound it makes. The wall was made out of cement blocks and rubber concrete and from the response he got he concluded that they had no rod reinforcements in them.
Now on obtaining this knowledge, Adam quickly knew what he was going to do next. If going through the only exit of the building meant potential doom for him then the only other option he had was going to be making an exit for himself in a location that would give him a really good chance at survival.With that in mind, Adam quickly took a step back, pulled his stun gun from it's holster and changed the setting to both increase it's intensity and it's blast radius, aimed at a section of the wall and then he fireThe staircase was at the middle of the passage and by standing at the top of it, Malkome and Mirajh were approximately a couple tens of meters away from Adam and that distance wasn't enough for him to accomplish what he wanted by completing the Arc. With a massive grin on his face Malkome spoke "What ya tink you're doing boy-a" Adam sensed when they made it to the their floor but he hadn't made any moves until now. He quickly turned only his head when he heard Malkome's voice to see the two standing by the staircase while Malkome took his massive weapon from his shoulder and held on to it tightly, stretching it and looking like he was soon about to attack which put Adam on the defensive a bit, however, that was just a bluff as Malkome put it right back on his shoulder once again and kept it there, grinning. After seeing that Malkome was just toying with him, in a moment of decisiveness Adam focused on one side of the Arc, clasped his t
Over at the other side of the passage, right by the staircase, Malkome was being pulled in by their passive aggressive conversion while Mirajh was more cautious, wondering why Adam had been moving, acting and speaking the way he currently is. To her he sounded like someone using speech to pull attention from something else because just from looks alone he didn't seem like the one who spoke unnecessarily. With her mind gone in that route already she began thinking if he was planning something when she finally noticed that his right hand was closed and moving ever so slightly unlike his left and it had been closed and moving in such a way ever since he got up and even while dusting off it still remained like that. "Oh you stopped coming? I tot you had someting you wanted to say to my face, so what happened little b—" Malkome said attempting to take a step forward but was cut off by Mirajh when she suddenly chimed in a concern of hers. "What's
Once Adam slammed into the Arc the first sound that was heard was the cracking and breaking noise of the rest of the wall coming from the right side of the Arc which went from where Adam had stopped creating the Arc due to Malkome and Mirajh's interference to the bottom of the passage, completing the arc. Next were the two sides of the now completed Arc joining together at the middle and the wall gained liberation from the rest of the building. having received Adam's forward momentum to be pushed off and fall down the outside of the building and giving Adam the chance of escape he had been looking for. However... "KYA!!" metres behind Malkome screamed and following his scream was a high speed and pitched FWOOSHING sound which evolved instantaneously from the top of the staircase and was heading towards Adam who had just jumped forward and slammed into the wall Arc. The moment Adam pivoted around to started sprinting for the wall Arc, both Malkome
Having realized where the projectile was going to hit and it already being inches away from making a devastating impact with his skull, Adam reflexively reached for the side of the broken out and tilting wall, grabbed on, then pulled himself in that direction which caused his body to spin a few degrees on the broken out wall. The spin changed his position ever so slightly that instead of his head, the projectile made contact with the wall a few centimeters above his neck, missing it's target completely and if he had just tried to bend his head down without actually changing positions on the broken off wall then it would have been a definite head shot. Having missed it's target and hitting the top of the broken off wall instead, which the projectile did to break through the top as well and flew straight, heading for the next building, the force which the projectile had used to break through the broken off wall Adam was falling backwards on was enough to
His calculations were right because his body was indeed being flung in the right direction to make it through the first floor window so when he got close enough Adam used his arms to protect his face and head, breaking into the first floor and rolling until he stopped by slamming into the couch there. Meanwhile, outside the building the broken off wall finally landed on the ground and broke into pieces, pushing outward in all directions which caused the Uprisers who were close to jump back. Luckily for Adam, the window he had broken through didn't have the protective coating sprayed on it that the one on the third floor had, which was used to prevent the Uprisers standing over it from getting shot down by snippers the United States government might send to stop them. If that was the case then he wouldn't have been about to break through it. Slamming into the couch with the force he did caused it to move a bit, letting out a high pitched sound which he found i
Even though the Uprisers were using some sort of signal jamming device in the Jurisdiction district, only the signals leaving the district were the ones being jammed, meanwhile, those circulating within the district were free reign just like the network the kids were using to communicate with one another. Also, in order to stay unaffected, the signal jamming only affected signals aside from the special encrypted one which the uprisers were using to communicate with one another or else they would impede themselves if that wasn't the case. Over from outside the window, marching steps of Uprisers down below could be heard as they were making their way to the area on the ground floor directly below the window after seeing Adam break through it and knowing that his hope of being able to go back out through the window, evade and outrun the Uprisers down below with their live rounds and pill ammunition while the bionic soldiers would soon be on his tail was getting slimmer the
"Alright then kid, so what's the plan?" Adam said then turned around to face the little girl while she smiled back, trying to conceal the internal conflict she was feeling. Now feeling a little better with the path she had decided to take the little girl finally came out through the half opened door, slowly, closing it behind her and after coming to full view of Adam, he then realised just how little she was. Although he had seen her before when he saved both her and her guardian from being trapped in foam, Adam didn't really pay much mind to the kid and now that he was trusting her with his safety his mind momentarily placed her in a different and more confiding light which usually is something given to someone much bigger than the person placing their trust. However, now that he was seeing her completely, no longer looking at her in the form of a potential threat or a distraction, Adam was finally able to see the little girl for her real s
Moments before the Uprisers ran up to Malkome and Mirajh to inform them about the new development on Adam's whereabouts, before the now escaped trainee captain made his way down the hatch and out the building with the help of Mave, Mark and Josh. Going back moments before he even appeared before Mave, while he was still rotating uncontrollably down the building up on the third floor there was a different development of it's own taking place. After Adam had slammed into the broken off wall and Malkome had sent a part of his hefty weapon flying after him as a targeted projectile, while the young Enhanced captain spun to the ground because the projection of his descent had been altered by Malkome's interference, the section of the weapon which was sent flying towards Adam was now just making it's entry into the next building. Seeing that he had done what he did, Malkome slid back his thumb on the handle of his weapon which caused it to generate a strange mechani
