Capítulo 692: Refract React
Afton chuckles at its shocked face, decreasing his grip on its throat to allow it to speak, "Beg for your life, and I might let you live, creature."
...
"Die before, beg!... Race, weak. Will die. Friends weak, will die! Offspring WEAK! DEATH!" it screams in response, its sentence structure sounding broken and foreign, despite Afton knowing what each word means.
Afton shakes his head and laughs, "My race is weak!? Look at you! Without your weapons, you are weak! Once we steal your technology, I WILL ANNIHILATE YOUR RACE. You won't be able to touch our children, you won't even be able to stop me butchering your own!" he states, shaking the creature by its neck.
Once Afton stops shaking its neck, the creature grins, Afton Danger Sense triggering as he notices the alien activating some sort of device. He forms a root tentacle which grabs the device and throws it out of the city at terminal velocity... But the Alien just grins in response, showings its thin fangs as it gives an awkward laugh.
He crushes its neck and feels his hair begin to stand, static electricity clear in the air... His eyes widen as he looks up, finally noticing the giant spaceship that was floating overhead. A compartment underneath it opens up, and a bright light shoots from him, Afton momentarily wondering if he'd just had an Exterminatus dropped on his head...
A laser similar in power to his own Helios Sattalites descends before Afton can react, Afton somehow managing to use VAC's just before the laser hits him.
...
"Fuck." he mutters, his eyes locked on the bright beam of light about to wipe him off of the planet... How was he supposed to get out of this situation now...?
He shakes his head, looking at his status and focussing on the 10 remaining points left... Calming his breath, he selects the Mutations tab and starts looking through it, unsure what could possibly save him at this moment...
Sure, he had his [Miracle Maker] Perk which might save him... Or he might just survive the first wave of atomizing laser fire and get spawn killed almost immediately after...
He shakes his head, not willing to risk it... Plus the fact he had no idea if the orbital bombardment would reach the underground bunker where House, Tamia, and Rose were hiding.
[Atomic Decompression] : Allows user to enter a state of intangibility, doesn't work on held items. 10 points. Wouldn't help in protecting the bunker.
[Light Manipulation V3] : Allows user to manipulate Protons to a certain degree. 8 points for V1, V2, and V3... Doesn't really say how powerful this ability is, nor if he'd be able to immediately use it proficiently.
[Photosynth-Eater] : Allows user to absorb light and use it for sustenance. 4 points... Might be useful? It would meld well with his [Solar Powered] Perk, maybe even increasing its effectiveness? Though, it still might not be enough...
[Unstable Growth] : Allows user to force plants to grow incredibly quickly, even without necessary nutrients... Might be usable on his plant arms? 3 points...
[Diamond Skin] : Allows user to turn their body into an incredibly reflective surface, +20 DT when active... This, might actually work. It seems as if the Perk is more focused on defence than reflectiveness, but it might work nonetheless?... 6 points...
Afton frowns, wondering if he should keep looking... He'd already spent what must have been twenty-four hours looking through the list, and the above mention was the best he'd found that was in his price range... He was starting to regret wasting it on the language acquisition skill...
He shakes his head, deciding to just go for it, and take responsibility for what happens afterwards... He buys [Diamond Skin], and [Photosynth-Eater], praying to whatever gods still exist in this shit-hole of a world that the combination would work.
With that, he mentally reaffirms his decision and unpauses, immediately activating [Diamond Skin] and covering as much area as possible with roots. His skin quickly turns into a pure white, sparkly substance that spreads to the roots, all of them looking like massive diamond structures.
They each resembled disco-balls in their looks, which was only exacerbated when the orbital laser finally struck. The light of the attack refracting in all directions, in an unstoppable wave of destruction.
Almost immediately, the entirety of New Vegas was obliterated... The refracted laser scorching the city, cutting buildings in two, and even bisecting Mr House's Lucky 38...
Afton struggles under the force of the attack, feeling the heat of the laser rapidly transfer into his roots. [Solar Powered], [A Pool of Dead], and all of his other defensive Perks were working overtime to resist it, but he could feel it slowly eating away at him.
Of course, his regenerative abilities would be massively enhanced by the amount of energy he was absorbing from the light the laser was producing, his [Photosynth-Eater] mutation allowing him to produce even more roots than he usually could.
Unfortunately, it didn't feel as if the laser would stop any time soon... The ground under his feet had already started liquefying from the sheer heat being produced, and it wouldn't be long before Afton found himself sitting in lava... Luckily, his roots were fracting enough to stop the laser from eating completely through the earth, potentially saving the bunker...
Of course, it all depending on how far House had built the bunker... Something Afton wasn't privy to... Mostly because he didn't care enough to ask about it, nor expected it to be needed anytime soon.
Eventually, the assault ends. Afton's roots almost immediately turning to dust as the cool winds cause a catastrophic failure in their superheated structure. Afton falls down backwards, exhausted. But happy for stopping disaster from striking.

Capítulo 693: Astro-Naught...
Afton grumbles in pain from the incredibly hot floor, the BFG House had given him ha turned into molten slag next to him. Unsurprisingly giving off a rather ridiculous amount of radiation, empowering him and pushing more energy into his unwilling body.
Unfortunately for Afton, his work isn't even close to being complete... He wasn't able to just sit back and relax, as the massive spaceship was still overhead, and he wasn't sure if it could fire another shot or not...
Grumbling to himself, he gets up and starts running towards where the bunker is situated, wanting to say his 'last words' to his friends and daughter before he goes off on what might just be a suicide mission.
He reaches the bunker doors for a second time, and House's face appears again on the terminal, "Afton... Remind me, what did I say regarding the Lucky 38?" the man asks.
Afton frowns, "Look, it's either that getting destroyed or your bunker. I was barely hanging on as it is," he states, gesturing down at his ragged, scorched clothing that barely hung onto his body.
House sighs, "I know, but... The Lucky 38 was the centre of New Vegas, it was connected and controlled almost every system in the city.. Without it, rebuilding would be difficult." he states.
Afton shakes his head, "We can think about rebuilding when we stop the world-destroying aliens flying overhead." he retorts, "Listen, what I'm about to do is incredibly stupid, and I have no idea if I'll be coming back from it. Is Tamia there?" he asks, not wanting to know if Rose is away... He didn't want to tell her that he might not be here much longer, especially after she'd lost Josie as well.
House nods, the terminal flickering to Tamia's face, "What's this about 'Not coming back?' you dumb bastard!" she exclaims, looking as if she wanted to bury an axe in his crotch.
"We don't really have a choice Tamia! If I don't get rid of those aliens then we're all fucked. They want to kill us all and claim the planet for themselves!"
"But what about Rosie!? She just lost her mother, are you going to tell her what you're telling me!? There has to be another way, Afton!" Tamia angrily states.
Afton chews his lip, "What other way could there be Tamia? None of our weapons work, the Orbital Lasers are out of energy, and we probably only have a couple days before the Aliens unleash a full-scale invasion!"
Tamia's expression becomes more and more downtrodden as he lays out just how fucked they are. Yet, she continues to shake her head and refuse his decision. "You can't do this!"
"You don't seem to understand. I've already decided to do it, I just wanted to ask you to look after Rosie, if worst comes to worst... Do you understand?"
Tamia just reluctantly nods, looking as if she had more to say, but Afton doesn't allow her to and just leaves. Sprinting out of New Vegas and headed back to Big Mt, to ready the rather stupid plan that he'd formed.
Luckily, once he left New Vegas, the large alien spaceship didn't stay over New Vegas, allowing him to breathe a sigh of relief. It doesn't take long for him to arrive back at Big Mt, Afton quickly getting a change of clothes while talking to Glados' drone.
"Glados, that half-built satellite, can it be launched into space?" he asks, obviously wanting to shoot himself at the largest alien ship.
"Launch sequence can be initiated, the satellite would still be inoperable however." Glados explains.
Afton nods, "Alright, get it ready then..." he states, putting on thin yet durable biomesh clothing. Afterwards heading to the armoury to retrieve the weapons which might work against the aliens.
Sonic Emitter, Check.
Ultra-Chainsword, Check.
Railgun, Check.
Honestly, Afton was tempted to try and modify his Power armour so he could use it with his new strength, but it would probably just melt due to the heat caused by air resistance as he tried to leave the atmosphere.
Plus the fact it would prevent him from using his mutations and Perks like [Diamond Skin]... The only thing it might be useful for was providing him oxygen... But his Perks like [Freeza Style!] would allow him to fight for a good enough amount of time, as well as letting him survive the vacuum.
No, the only thing he does is overcharge the Railgun, this would severely limit its ammunition and durability, but might allow it to penetrate the alien fighter's shields.
He releases a sigh and looks up at the sky, wondering if this would work or not. "Glados, if I die up there, I give you permission to Activate the Skynet protocol... Just, protect Rosie if it comes to that, alright?"
"Affirmative, father." Glados says, her voice somehow sounding solemn.
With that, Afton gears up and heads straight towards the launch site, where the satellite had already been prepared... This had intended to be another Orbital Laser, but obviously, it wouldn't be much help in its current half-built state.
He climbs the structure and tucks himself into a crevice, not having any way to get inside due to these projects usually being unmanned. Instead, he just uses his roots to shield himself from outside elements.
"Glados! Start the launch!"
"Affirmative! Launch sequence initiated, all unauthorized personnel are required to clear the area... Sattelite launch beginning in, 5... 4... 3... 2... 1... 0.5..."
"JUST LAUNCH IT!" Afton shouts, feeling as if Glados was playing one last prank.
"0." she finishes. And the thrusters of the rocket begin in full, Afton finds himself stuck against the metal of the satellite from the sheer g-force caused by the sudden acceleration.
