The beast barge slowly came into view of the group of kids and they took cover behind other abandon cars in the streets of the city. The barge had stop right above the hiding spot of adam and eve were and ropes started to spring form the sides of the barge. Then multiple grubs descended from the barge, sliding down the rope and into the streets of the city. They landed and started to sling their hammer bursts from their backs and started to take the area. Adam and eve surprise them with a spray of gun fire from their lancers and the team of grubs notice this after their first comrade died.
Tilt and daisy had taken position on the other side were adam and eve had. The two took glances at each other and started to fire their rifles right at the grubs. The grubs turn their attention from adam and eve and to tilt and daisy. The grubs fired at them but were shot from behind by adam and eve. This seem like a bad spot for them and as the children started to mow them down, one of them charge right at tilt and daisy's location. He had a lancer with him and had activated the saw blade. It was spinning at fast speed as he came right at the two. "take this you shit head" tilt said as he unloaded a clip of ammo into the charging locust but he still kept coming.
"that is one bad ass locust" said salt. Salt broke from his cover charge past tilt and daisy. "salt what the heck are you doing" tilt shouted at him. Salt didn't respond back as he held up his lancer and activated the saw blade on it. The two charging maniacs finally made contact with each other and their chain saws collided. The two were in a intense chain saw battle. To them, tilt and daisy, it seem like seconds had passed, but for the two chain saw wielders, it seem like an eternity. "holy crap, that's bad ass" said eve and adam. As the two were busy killing any locust that was still alive from their fire. After about minute of chain saw battling, salt was the one who emerge victorious. His chain saw cut right through the body of the locust and blood started to spray all around. Some of it got on salt and some got on tilt and daisy.
After about a minute, the body of the locust slupt to the ground in pieces. "dawn salt, you could have been killed" said tilt. "yeah, but you know how I like chain saw battle. The thrill of almost dying make excited" "I don't know why" said daisy. The team looked around for a minute and saw the beast barge that had transported the locust was running away know. It looked like one locust had stayed onboard. Tilt raised his rifle but was stop by daisy. "lets not kill anymore today, I'm beat" she said. I decided to agree with her and the five of us headed back towards the van were tim and jack were waiting. "what the heck took you guys so long" said jack. "what do you mean what took us, what the heck took you" replied daisy. "we were busy killing a second squadron of grubs coming from behind. weren't many of them" he said as he slung a pair of goggles from his pack and handed to tilt. "what's this" " what do you think" said tim. It was pretty obvious it was a pair of sniper goggles sniper locust wore.
"good catch, I bet sage would love this" said tilt. The team then started to look around for the weapons of the fallen locust and took their weapons. "how come we always need t bring these back, nobody uses these anyway" said salt. "we need these when we run dry on ammo for the lancers" "I thought we traded these with the COG for ammo for lancer ammo" said adam. "we are, but the freaken COG is shorten their trade for these weapons since they mange to get damage" "ain't our fault man" said jack. The team loaded their grab for the day and finally loaded into the van.
"hey salt, you didn't answer my question" "you mean why the squad always chose you as squad leader" said salt. He looked at him in the van with his eyes of knowing. "isn't that obvious" said daisy. Tilt looked at her and knew what she was going to say. It was stupid to have asked salt to the answer to the question it the first place. "its because you're a natural born leader" she said and everyone in the van nodded in the van. "even if you are a pain sometimes" daisy giggled.
Tilt took a note of that and lead back on the side of the van and closed his eyes to catch some sleep. This was his life in this world. This was the battle of two species fighting over two different reasons. This was about children fighting in this war. This is about the story of Orion Squad.
I bet you wandering what is going on, well let me tell you. This is a story about children in the war for their lives. 14 years ago, a day for the people of sera would never be forgotten and that day was emergence day or E-DAY. It was the day when a species that lived under the ground of sera attacked and started to slaughter the many people on the planet.
