Sup guys? Lighting Wolf here, back with another story, this one on Valkyria Chronicles. Enjoy the 800-word chapter. I don't own VK, Sega, Ryutaro Nonaka and Shuntaro Tanaka do.

(Imperial Capital edge, 1 week from Valkyria Chronicle 4)

The figure continued to run through the snow as he smashed through a boulder and rolled down a hill before slamming into the snow.

"Where the hell did he go? Capture him before he gets away or Lord Belgar will have our heads!"

He heard as he looked up to see Imperial Shocktroopers rush along the ridge he was running on.

This was Clemence, he remembered that part of his history at least, the other was things he wished to forget….

So much he wished to forget… Except what had been done to him… What had been taken from his mind and replaced.

"So… Cold…"

Clemence hissed as he tugged at his jacket, if there was one thing he was glad that…. Monster of a man had given him, it was the fact that the cold winds nipping at his face didn't bother him…. They hurt, but they didn't bother him like it would a normal Human.

Then again, he didn't even know what was normal at the moment…. He damn sure wasn't after all was said and done…

"Still have to keep running, I'm not bullet proof…. Least I don't think so…."

Clemence whispered before he continued running, his boots crunched into the snow, he had to keep running, he knew half the Imperial Army…. Half of X-0 was chasing after him, if not for his intelligence which could cripple the empire, then for the experiments that changed him.

"Damn it Belgar…"

He hissed as he kept running, he ran until the snow changed into grass, a sign he was outside the capital… Or at least close to it…

He passed out and fell into the grass, he heard boots shuffling towards him, he didn't have the strength to run… And he hated that… But he blamed himself, he shouldn't have given up, he should have run until his legs gave out a thousand times.

"He's breathing, get word back to base…. Damn it, he looks like the Imps tried to kill him…"

Clemence heard, he didn't fully pass out, his body wouldn't allow him for that to happen thankfully, another experiment.

"Yeah, but if they did, then he's probably an enemy of the Empire…. They wouldn't kill him… Try and shoot him, without good reason, lets get him back to base before the Imps find us… This was a recon mission, not an assault mission."

Clemence heard, one of the soldiers rolled him over and then they began to carry him away, he could guess who they were.

The Federation… The people he wanted to find, he slowly was able to open his eyes a little.

"He's up! Kid, don't move, you have wounds from Imperial weapons… How is this guy still alive?"

Clemence heard as he sat up, he cracked his neck while looking around, he was in an APC, these were indeed Federation soldiers…. He was glad at least.

"Your Federation soldiers…. Right?"

Clemence asked, the pain was fading, if he was a failure as he heard, then Belgar must have had expectations no one could hope to win at.

"Yeah…. And you're a former Imp, I'm guessing?"

One of the soldiers asked, Clemence shook his head, he was not one of those heartless monsters, not like them, not at all…

"No… Not anymore…. I need to speak to whoever in charge of you… I have something to tell them about the Empire…. Something they want me captured or dead for…."

He stated, he couldn't allow what he knew go to waste, he'd make sure the Empire… No, X-0 was dismantled, they captured him and his friend and turned them into… Whatever he was now.

"Ok, we're head over there…. But we need to ask questions first, you know how it is with spies and all that…. Even if you seem like an ok guy… Sorry…"

The soldier said, Clemence nodded, anything to make sure the X-0 would pay for what had happened to him and her.

"Anything you need ask… I will answer… As long as they pay… For everything they did to…. Me and my friend… Ask what you need ask…"

Clemence hissed out through the pain.

He and Nikola would be free from them.

Author Note
