Shot Down In The Blaze Of Glory 소설 & 이야기

And this day is the one of that rare day. “I’m bulletproof nothing to lose Fire away, fire away Ricochet you take your aim Fire away, fire away You shoot me down, but I won't fall I am titanium You shoot me down, but I won't fall I am titanium” Why did I chose to sing this? I just want to tell them all that, even if they try to destroy me. I will rise and rise from the fall. “Stone hard, machine gun Firing at the ones who run Stone hard, as bulletproof glass”

The drone spiraled out of control, exploding against the side of the stack. I looked down. On the catwalk below, Myra Bliss was standing in the rain, her arm still extended from the throw. She had sacrificed her legendary microphone to save us. "Upload it, you idiots!" Myra screamed, her voice barely carrying over the wind. "The world is watching!" The screen turned green. UPLOAD COMPLETE. Julian grabbed my hand, a wild, triumphant grin breaking through his exhaustion. "The signal is out. The Vane monopoly is dead."

Bloodshed. ***

I followed the script and calmly admitted to mistakes that were not mine. A journalist suddenly asked, “Mr. Sheldon, we heard you were diagnosed with leukemia some time ago. You might not live for more than a month. Would you approve of Ms. Walter and Mr. Surrey being together after your death?” My sickly expression appeared on the screen. I was not surprised by the question. As Jaime’s husband, I often had paparazzi around me. I did not deny anything. I simply smiled. “Yes, I will give them my blessing.” I did not know which part angered her, but Jaime’s calm expression vanished. She stood up at once and ended the live broadcast.

I shut my eyes, bracing for the explosion. "For honor, for glory, or for the end that comes for us all."

She shifted the gear into drive. Elara stepped back. The sedan tore through the rusted guardrail like it was paper. It launched into the black abyss, hanging suspended in the stormy air for one breathtaking second before plummeting down the jagged cliffside. A deafening crunch of metal echoed over the roaring waves, followed immediately by a magnificent, towering fireball that lit up the stormy sky in brilliant shades of orange and red. The explosion was absolute. There would be nothing left for Julian’s men to find but scorched steel and blood-soaked ash.

The last two verses of the song were: There were zero Piletan bombers o’er the sea, There were zero Piletan bombers o’er the sea There were zero Piletan bombers, zero Piletan bombers, Zero Piletan bombers o’er the sea. For the lieutenant of Medietus shot them down, For the lieutenant of Medietus shot them down, For the lieutenant of Medietus, the lieutenant of Medietus, The lieutenant of Medietus shot them down. Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah!

Soon, that same fire would consume Ashmoor. I could almost hear the screams already, rising on the wind like a promise. I raised my glass toward the horizon and whispered, “Burn, Kael Draven. Burn for the girl you love… your free ticket to death.”

A mushroom cloud rose into the sky, marking the instant destruction of the city as everyone was swept by the blast. The glow of the explosion filled the sky. Sage, still standing outside the city, turned her gaze toward Mount Regent and whispered, "Don't fail us, Nova."

The symbols blazed—gold and silver, bright as the sun, bright as the hope that had carried us through every battle, bright as the love that bound us together, bright as the light that had guided us home. The light exploded, pouring into the shadow, burning it away, burning it clean, burning it out. The shadow screamed. Aldric's body crumbled to dust. The spy was gone. But the fear remained.
