Chapter Text
Everything was happening too fast. He couldn’t even tell what was going on anymore, all he knew was that he was shooting. His ears were ringing from all the bangs, gunshots and fights around him. He heard screaming, yelling beside him but he couldn’t quite make out what they were saying. Wait, were they talking to him? What are they-
BANG.
Suddenly, he understood what they were screaming at him, well at least tried to scream at him. He stumbled backwards as pain shot right through his entire body. He fell onto the ground as his body burned in pain. No, like literally burned in pain as he was ON FIRE? Hyperlaser panicked as he rolled around on the grass, it hurt, it hurt so bad. He rolled until the burning stopped, but it still hurt so much. It felt like a bullet hit right through his arm, his face and his head. Even through all this pain, he tried to get himself up but he couldn’t. He just couldn’t get himself up. Come on, you need to get up, I need to- I can’t just lay here. He sat up in pain, as he realized one of his arms wouldn’t move. He tried so hard to move it and it just wouldn’t move, it wouldn’t- just then, pulling Hyperlaser right out of his thoughts, he got snagged upwards by someone. He faintly, through the fogginess in his head and his vision heard someone say,
“Fuck, fuck fuck stay with me bud, come on-”
It was Medkit. He could barely tell but it was him, he was being dragged away from the field with his arm barely holding his gun. His arm hurt as he got dragged by Medkit but he couldn’t say anything. God it hurts so much, it hurts it hurts.. Please, please make it stop. I want it to stop already. Illumnia please make it stop.

A couple hours later.
He woke up, his head filled with pain. Hyperlaser was confused as he sat up in a hospital bed, or well what seemed to be a hospital bed. He turned over to see Medkit walk into the room, looking back at Hyperlaser.
“Ah, you’re finally awake, Hyperlaser.”
Hyperlaser blinked in confusion as Medkit walked over to the bed, setting the clipboard he was holding down.
“What.. happened? Where am I?” Medkit looked down at Hyperlaser for a second, pausing as he decided what to tell him.
“Well, to sum it down for you, you were blown up by a grenade.” Hyperlasers eyes widened in shock as he heard this information, what? There's no way that could be true.. Wait. No, no. Hyperlaser thought back and remembered the explosion, the pain he felt. He could feel his heart start to pound, the blood rushing to his ears as he remembered the pain. He could faintly make out the sound of the heart monitor beeping as his heart spiked. Suddenly, he felt a hand on his shoulder as he looked up at Medkit.
“Hey, hey it’s alright. It wasn’t that bad, plus you’re still here! You’re alive and well.. Not well but. Alive! It’s gonna be okay, Hyperlaser.”
Hyperlaser could barely render in his head what Medkit said. He blinked at him for a minute before properly understanding. He needed to see how bad it was, he needed to know.
“Do you by chance have any type of mirror that I can borrow? I would like to see what I look like.” Medkit thought for a minute before saying,
“Are you sure you’re ready for that?” Hyperlaser was quick to reply,
“Yes.”
Medkit nodded as he left the room to go get the mirror. Hyperlaser sat there as he looked down at his bandaged arm. What happened? How is it this bad? His entire arm is bandaged for god's sake. He sat there waiting for what felt like forever. The clock ticked in his ear, it sounded like it was getting louder and louder by the minute. Finally, the door opened and Medkit came in with a mirror. Hyperlaser snapped out of his trance as he looked over at Medkit, who walked over. He reached out, handing Hyperlaser the mirror. He slowly turned the mirror to face him. Oh my god, it was so bad..it was so so bad. Half of his face had bandages on it. He only just now realized one of his eyes was covered and he couldn’t see out of it. He tilted the mirror up a bit and it hit his horns. No. Nono this can’t be right.. They.. they were destroyed.
“NO!”

5 Years later.
“NO.” Hyperlaser jolted upwards as he breathed heavily. He stared at the sheets, his eyes foggy. He slowly reached up to graze his horn, letting out a slight whine as he put his hand back down. He looked over at the clock, the time being 5:39 AM in the morning. He tried to calm down his breathing. He breathed in, and then out. In, and out, in and out.. He then layed back down and stared at the roof of his bed. He turned his head slightly and a Biograft was standing beside his bed. He blinked slowly.
“HYPERLASER, WHAT IS WRONG.” The Biograft asked, not concerned just making sure that he was not hurt or anything. Hyperlaser slowly responded with,
"I'm fine, Biograft."
“OKAY, MAKE SURE TO GET SLEEP. CREATOR HAS BIG PLANS.”
Hyperlaser sighed in annoyance as the Biograft walked away. God did he hate those stupid things, he hated living with them yet their company was nice sometimes. He slowly closed his eyes and soon enough he fell into a deep sleep.

Hyperlaser woke up, rubbing his eyes as he sat up. He looked over at the clock, it said 2:36 PM. Hyperlaser blinked slowly looking away from the clock, he quickly turned his head back. 2 A CLOCK? Holy crap he slept in. He slowly got himself off of the bed, stretching as he stood there. He then went over to the closet, snagging a pair of his clothes out and going into the bathroom to change. Once changed, he walked back out and neatly put his pj’s back into the cabinet. He walked over to his bedside, grabbing his helmet. He stared at the helmet for a bit, sighing. He put the helmet on, walking out of the room.
Hyperlaser walked around blackrock for a bit, accidentally running into Subspace on the way. Subspace gave him a look, a nasty one and then said,
"Did ya sleep in again?" Hyperlaser, shocked that he wasn't being criticized said,
"Yep."
"Huh. Well damn that just sucks doesn't it?"
"What do you want, Subspace?"
Subspace just walked off not saying a word, he was clearly disappointed. Hyperlaser stood there for a minute before leaving the grounds of Blackrock.
This was gonna be a long day.
