Chapter 6, David vs Flynt.

(Entering Soaring Dragon)

David trampled over the body of dead guard, laying before the gates of the lair, when his communicator turned on. "Hey, I wanted to offer you to become my plaything, but I guess I'll settle for your CORPS! KILL HIM!!!" roared Flynt.

"Dread it. Run from it. Destiny still arrives. Or should I say, I have." Replied David with a visibly amused expression.

"Love me, hate me - It all tastes the same!" shouted a psycho.

"I need another head for my merry-go-round - YOURS IS PERFECT!" yelled another one.

Bandits started surrounding David, but he stood standing, unbothered by them. As they got closer, David still didn't move. The bandits grew restless as their bloodlust started rising. "I stole your meat bicycle" David snorted with a laugh. The mindless psychos enraged by his skillfully crafted lies charged to him at full speed, axe in hand.

"Karate chop!" A psycho screamed at the top of his lungs.

"Kung-fu!" cried another one.

As soon as the melee psychos charged to him, David ignited his Lightsaber, a beautiful flash of blue was the only thing the psychos saw before their inevitable demise. The bandits standing behind cover, aiming down their sights froze for a few seconds out of fear, when seeing David taking the lives of multiple psychos without effort. An intense eery feeling filled their hearts as they started shooting David, the Jedi shrugged off the bullets twirling his Lightsaber around him, with ease.

"How dare you stop my bullets!?" cooed a bandit.

"I ignored my destiny once, I can not do that again. Even for you. I'm sorry Little one." the towering David replied before Force leaping his way to the bandit and decapitating him. Surprisingly, David was around 6'2, which made him look tall in front of the of Pandora's population.

As more bandits came for David's head. He jumped behind cover, swapping to his sniper rifle David told himself "They are far to many for melee, the only problem is unlike the real Vault Hunters my aim isn't great."

Continuing his endeavour to get to Sanctuary, David aimed down his Hyperion sight, immediately blowing the brains out of a unsuspecting bandit. Surprisingly for David, the weapons were easier than he thought to control even though he would still need practice. After clearing the first level out of bandits, David found the gang of bandits bullying Claptrap.

[A\N: I will skip most action parts and dialogues until our dear protagonist reaches Sanctuary since everything before that is just filler. The "spending months learning new skills" part will also start when he reaches Sanctuary. thank you]

David threw a grenade towards the bandits and Claptrap, well if Claptrap didn't survive it would just be an unfortunate accident. Unsurprisingly, the bandits not noticing the grenade until the last second, exploded like balloons. Limbs, and blood flew everywhere, Claptrap was now completely painted red, and had a few dents because of some of the shrapnel.

Wanting to get to Sanctuary as fast as possible David decided it was now high time, for the boss battle. The boss, Flynt was sitting on the iron chair, on the very top of the lair. So David decided to activate a crane for Claptrap since the robot couldn't walk over 3 flights of stairs. Using decepti0n, David discreetly made his way to the top, bypassing the bandit guards and activated the crane.

"Ahahahhaha! I ASCEND!" Claptrap laughed with a superiority complex. After Claptrap joined the Vault Hunter to the top, they both arrived at the final gate. The bandits didn't notice them go up, since David was invisible even if only for a few seconds, it was enough to get past the bandits and Claptrap took the crane on the other side of the lair.

-------------

[A\N: yeah, I know, decepti0n doesnt work that way. And do I give a flying fuck ? No, I don't. Ma boy won't obey the rules of physics nor borderlands and he will be a master Jedi and Assassin until Sanctuary.]

--------------

Two vending machines were stationed outside of the final gate, which was a very stupid idea. Since David got to stock up on ammo once more, the demise of a certain captain was now, inevitable. Not wanting to interact with Claptrap any longer, David opened the gate instantly and walked into the open air boss room without even looking back.

"..." Flynt was looking at David weirdly but didn't speak, the last he had heard from the Vault Hunter was him still on the first floor not 5 minutes ago and yet the mighty Vault Hunter was standing before him.

"Come on out, Flynt! Your CL4P-TP unit has returned!" Laughed Claptrap with a unseen smug, well he was a robot without facial expressions.

----------------------------------------------

"It's our new torture dolls, boys! Let's turn up the HEAT!"

(Title card for Captain Flynt: Burn, baby, burn)

----------------------------------------------

"Oh, SPHINCTERS! I'm so sorry Captain Flynt sir! Please don't burn me again…" Claptrap responded to Flynt's entrance.

"Can we get this over with?" David asked impatiently.

"Well, well, well, the mighty Vault Hunter wants to die so quickly? No, I will make you BURN!" replied Flynt.

David careful observed Flynt, the boss was almost 8' feet tall and had the physique of Hulk, a character from a comic book David used to read when he was younger. The Giant was wearing something similar to a yellow colored medieval armor with spiky metal plates on his shoulders and legs. He also wore a heavy metal mask with horns on top, with only a slit for his red eyes to see. The boss wielding a wonky shotgun and axe, made his way to David with surprising speed.

"Dual of the fates" started playing in the back of David's head.

Without even a second thought, David started spraying the boss with bullets. Flynt was slowly closing in on David and wasn't slowed down by the multiples magazines of high caliber bullets.

50 feet away, Flynt was still had 660 HP out of his 700 HP.

40 feet away, Flynt lit himself on fire with 620 HP out of 700 HP.

30 feet away, the boss with a little bit over 600 HP switched to his heavy woodcutter axe.

By the time Flynt was 20 feet away, David switched to his Lightsaber, igniting the plasma blade with a buzz and slowly increasing the speed at which he was charging the Giant at. The Vault Hunter and the captain both met, weapons clashing, standing on a platform on fire. The clash wasn't for long, because the moment David's saw an opening in Flynt's defense, David twirled his blade around the back of his hand and made a powerful forward slash, resulting with a heavy blow to the Bosses left shoulder. The moment Flynt looked over his wound, David took the opportunity to cut off the giant's right arm which was holding his axe, leaving only but a stump.

90 / 700 HP, was all that was left from the heavy blows. The Gaint losing most combat capabilities, fell to his knees roaring from the pain.

"ARRGH -- HOW CAN I LOSE TO A GRIND'R LIKE YOU!?" shouted the Boss.

"Fun isn't something one considers when balancing the universe. But this… does put a smile on my face." replied David with a smug demeanor while kill off the rest of the bandits using his rifle.

(minutes later, all bandits dead except Flynt)

"Look. Pretty, isn't it? Perfectly balanced. As all things should be. All those ridiculous murderers lying dead before you." said David admiring his handy work.

"DAMMIT!!! This ain't over grinder..." Flynt replied breathing heavily. To David's surprise, people could bleed to death which made things immensely harder for him since he could bleed to death as well.

David, upset with this new discovery cut threw Flynt's skull like butter and looted his weapon "the Tinderbox" and the remaining cash.

David was ecstatic with the new gun but also because his Sith corruption was raised by another 2%, even though he couldn't use the weapon yet, since he was only a level 4 at the moment, he knew it would be very useful against bandits. Moments later, seeing Claptrap making his way to the other end of the floor, David followed Claptrap not bothering with the rest of the loot, since he already had close to 1000 bucks. Just before entering the port behind the iron throne, David remembered something, and did a 180 degree turn to Flynt's throne. After a few minutes of climbing up on the head of the metal dragon, David sat peacefully on iron throne and quietly watched the sun rise. Even on a Planet days away from doom, the sun rise was one of the most beautiful sights to behold, David continued to watch the sun rise and his previous work for what seemed to be an hour or so before calmly saying "I finally rest, and watch the sun rise on a grateful universe. The hardest choices require the strongest wills."

"Alright -- now we've just gotta get to my ship, come minion!" called out an impatient Claptrap.

Understanding the robot, David descended the throne and made his way to the port behind the throne and stopped in front of a ship, to lowered it to sea level, and untied it from the post.

"And now, to set sail for Sanctuary! Toot-toot! " Claptrap sang while taking the wheel on the deck. David grunted at the little song and went down below deck, waiting for them to arrive at Three Horns.
