Chapter 4: The Guild
Williams POV: Mineshaft
We walked down deeper into the darkness it wasn't entirely dark they're where some lanterns burning on the wooden support beams but it only dimly lit the area, I started looking around cause I was a bit bored they're wasn't really that much to look at, the shaft two wooden support beams on ethier side of the wooden planked floor on each of the cave walls and another beam above this to supporting the roof of dirt above but it didn't look very safe it looked like the place could fall down on us at any moment I huts prayed it wouldn't and continued following Kanade.
After a while had passed Kanade stopped and turned her head to the left I stopped also and followed her gaze and I spotted 2 things first a ladder leading god knows where and second a corpse I don't know who he was I haven't really been in this world to long but he was whereing our school uniform. I decided to take a closer look I walked over to him knelt down and did a quick inspection, now I don't know what happened but his face, neck and shoulders appeared to be crushed like he had been hit by a truck his face appeared to have taken the full brunt of the attack it had blood oozing out of the mouth, nose and dear ducts it was difficult to tell his face was completely dented, battered and broken like an empty can that people sometimes crush before throwing into the bin.
I wondered if he was a member of SSS I looked down at his uniform for any identification I noticed an insignia stitched into the uniforms fabric I couldn't see it clearly (cause his blood had soaked the top half of his uniform) but I could make out what appeared to be shield but other than that nothing, I decided enough was enough and stood up until I seen a Halberd lying on the ground "Hmm must be his" I thought I walked over to Kanade and asked "Do you think he's a member of the SSS?" "Yes his name is Noda he is quite violent and aggressive towards everyone other than the SSS leader, that halberd is his he hates using firearms." she answered I nodded in understanding before asking "So what did this to him did his friends do this or did you send a small army to scout this place out and they ran into him?" she shook her head then replied "No his friends wouldn't do this and I fight against the SSS on my own...until you came along."
I frowned "She's been fighting the SSS on her own? No help, no backup...no friends...man well that stops today." I then remembered that if she and the SSS didn't kill him then who did, and right on cue Kanade picked up on what I was thinking "The Guild placed Anti-Angel traps here so I wouldn't be abel to approach their base Noda must have tripped one." "I see so that means that both SSS have passed through here and now we have to deal with traps?" I asked she surprised me by shacking her head "No we won't have to deal with any traps because if Noda tripped this one then that means the Guild didn't disarm the others the SSS have most likely tripped them all by now."
"That's convenient" I thought "Well let's continue on then after you." I said giving a small simile Kanade nodded and continued walking, I looked down at the halberd wondering if I should take it with me but then realised it would slow me down so I shrugged and followed closely behind Kanade.
Again we walked in silence until awhile later we found a slope where the shaft went downwards it wasn't steep but it would be probely difficult to walk down, I started moving step by step keeping my arms far apart for balance Kanade didn't seem to have trouble walking down if anything she acted like she was walking down a flight of stairs, after a while I noticed something that the support beams on the ceiling where a little splintered as if something had smacked it to them not sure what but it must have been big. After awhile we had travelled at lest halfway or a quarter of the way down when we discovered a hole in the wall it wasn't a natural hole this one appeared to have been man-made of-course Kanade didn't waste any time and walked inside I followed.
After entering a white corridor...and another corpse but this one was more gurosome I don't exactly know what happened but the poor chap sliced three times, he had been severed into at the belt buckle separating this legs from his torso, but it didn't end their for whatever had cut him had done an X shaped cut on his torso slicing it into 4 separate pieces what's worse was that he must have been standing up when he'd been slashed and fallen on his back, imagine a domino piece that was cut from top right to bottom left and top left to bottom right and had fallen and separated cause that's what he looked like now his head and neck had been severed from his torso, as well as both shoulders with arms, his hands appeared to have been severed from the wrists (and currently next to his feet) and his legs and feet where completely intact the entire floor around his massive chopped form was caked in blood n guts. (I seen some organs) as well as some of the wall.
I couldn't help but stare I swallowed the vomit in my mouth and took deep breaths then stared straight ahead Kanade was already on the other side of the corridor waiting for me, still breathing heavily I started walking over trying hard to ignore the squelching noises each of my footsteps made until I was at the other side standing behind Kanade neither of us moved or said anything for a few moments before she walked out and I followed.
We followed the tunnel and I couldn't help it but I had to ask "That guy back their he was another SSS soldier wasn't" "Yes his name was Matsushita he was the heavy weapons specialist." she responded "Well he looked like wrestler." I thought.
( 5 Minutes later)
After walking for a few minutes more I noticed that the rock wall had changed into a smooth stone one so was the ceiling it even had proper lights we followed a bit more until we seen a light at the end of the tunnel (that was quite cliche their I know) Kanade walked up over and looked down, I didn't know why so I went up behind her and looked over her shoulder and their was a ladder and a wide open room with chains connecting from the ceiling to the floor (Didn't like the look of that) and an exit on the other side Kanade was already climbing down the ladder I really didn't like this but I knew we had no choice so I followed.
After we reached the bottom we walked across the room towards the exit I tried to figure out what the chains ment my geass was that the ceiling came down on some poor sod but oh we'll we made it over with out any problem and we followed another long corridor...to a dead end. Well more of a pitfall I couldn't even see the bottom but still their where two ways we could go left or right "So which way do we go?" I asked Kanade turned to me and said "Right we can shimmy across." she lowered herself to a crouch put one leg over the edge and then another then her torso until her hands where gripping the edge then she started moving, I gave her a few moments before copieing her and shimming myself along Iam not the athletic type or muscular type ethier so this really hurt like hell luckily it didn't take to long to get around I watched lift herself up she stood their waiting for me so I moved over unfortunately I had a bit of a view up her skirt so I caught a glimpse of white before she kneeled down and lifted me "God this Overdrive is amazing" I thought.
I was going to thank her but she did something that I didn't expect well shoulda but not from her. She kicked me in the knee and turned away "Ouch! What was that for?" I wasn't feigning innocence I really didn't know "You saw" was all she said she didn't even sound angry but then I remembered and my face went red "Oh yeah s-sorry Kanade" I said stareing at the ground "Your forgiven" then without another world we continued walking with a welcome silence rather than an unwelcome one.
After awhile we found a stair case that lead downward seeing no other way we followed it until as we got closer to the bottom I thought I heard running water but shrugged and dismissed it, then we reached the bottom it was small white flooded room with a few holes in the walls that where pouring water into the room and their was another body he was lying face down in the water with what I think was a shocked expression.
Kanade wasted no time she jumped into the water I followed I am not the best swimmer Iam more adequate I waded over towards the SSS members body and searched it for anything useful I found a Glock 17C, with a full mag I smirked then I put it in my coat pocket and turned towards Kanade "Follow me" was all she said before she submerged into the water I took a deep breath and went under I searched quickly for Kanade I spotted her heading down another corridor, I followed behind her kicking hard to keep up I felt like we'd been swimming forever I was staring to feel confined and my chest was starting to hurt until finally we entered a clearing and Kanade went up to the surface I followed kicking faster till I burst out of the water breathing in deep gulps of air I swam to the shore and laid on my back.
Kanade was already standing she looked ok I mean she wasn't panting like me she shook herself a little to get rid of some water and sighed, after a few more breaths I took in my surroundings we where in a cave it was quite large their was a small stream that lead to a large waterfall and their was a way out it was made of concrete or cement it looked like the entrance of a bunker.
Seeing it as the only way to go we followed it their wasn't that much light and it kept getting darker as we continued we only knew this was the right way because their seemed to be light at the end so we kept going about halfway through I heard Kanade say "Guard skill Handsonic" and two blades appeared on both hands. After sometime walking we finally reached the end where we entered a large clear area their was loads of light in here as well as to more concrete like doorways, a large way up to the ceiling and at the other end of the room was a metal platform I think it was a elevator or something I wasn't entirely sure but that thought was pushed away when I saw a person a living person standing just in front of the platform. Both of us started walking closer then I began to get clearer view of them it was a girl, she wore the school uniform except it was white instead of a cream colour like Kanades she had purple hair, she was probely around Kanade's hight and her expression was at first mild shock then it quickly switched to a pissed one, yeah she was definitely SSS.
We stopped at about 80 paces from eachother neither side siad anything and I was about to when a metal hatch opened behind her on the platform and a boy with bright orange hair appearedI thought, the boy had the same uniform I did but his had an insignia stitched into it he walked up behind the girl and stood their silent. He didn't look angry like the girl he had more of a confused expression or something.
After a few more moments of silence the girl spoke "Ah Angel you came to destroy the Guild?" "Yes" was Kanade's simple answear the girl spoke again "Well you and your ally will have to go through us both." the boys eyes seemed to widen at this remarke but he said nothing "You can't win you mite as well just return to the school and let us finish the Guild off" I said at this the girl turned her head towards me she seemed to be quite angry now "Oh and what would you know! Do you even know what's happening you've only been in this world for a day how wou-" at this I cut her off "Wait wait wait what?" I didn't understand how did she know I was only here for a day then I remembered the sniper.
"That was you!? You where the sniper!" I shouted I was pissed off she looked at me then at her feet and shifted uneasily before answering "Yeah sorry for shooting you in the head" the boy was surprised at this revaluation but where it was from the apology or the fact that she even shot me at all was unknown to me, however I was a bit pissed so with out a second thought I drew the Glock from my coat pocket pointed at the girl and fired and I have to admit Iam a crap shot I don't think any even hit her I don't know how much ammo I had but it didn't matter cause I felt a pain in my left shoulder I dropped the gun (Iam right handed) and put my right hand over my shoulder, I pulled away my hand seen the blood covering it I looked over and seen more seeping through my uniform I placed my palm back over it and applied pressure I looked up and seen that the girl had pulled out her own pistol as well.
Kanade hadn't moved since my little outburst until I heard another shot and she fell on her right knee I seen a small bit of blood appear then I heard her say "Guard skill Distortion" and the bullet that had hit her was pushed out of her leg I didn't know wearer to be sickef or impressed. "Dammit!" I heard the girl shout I looked back at and she pulled out a knife from behind her and charged towards Kanade. Kanade charged as well and soon both girls where swiping at eachother the sniper girl was on the offensive trying stab and slash at Kanade who was dodging and deflecting every attack it was as if she was dancing to music she was wonderful.
After a few more monuments Kanade was on the offensive stabbing and slashing and thrusting although where the girls attacks seemed to be random and chaotic here's where precise and calculated she was backing the girl into a corner until finally she both knocked her down and disarmed her the girl looked up at Kanade and she raised her right arm high and was tackled by the orange haired boy and knocked away I stood their shocked I was not expecting that and I had forgotten about him he helped his friend up and asked if she was ok.
I was making my way over to Kanade when a rumbling began not an earthquake rumble more of a machinery rumble I looked back over to the metal platform and my heart sunk when I seen a group of men in light blue jumpsuits and a huge fucking canon ascend from the damed elevator and aimed the barrel of the gun towards Kanade. I started running over however they fired and the shot hit Kanade full force she was engulfed in an explosion "KANADE!" I screamed their was a lot of smoke so I couldn't see but it appeared that the canon was destroyed also when it fired.
The smoke was dying down a bit and then I found Kanade on her back she wasn't dead hell she didn't look injured her uniform was a little torn but she seemed fine, then those bastards wearing the jumsuits started throwing dame dynamite at us I thought quickly and laid over Kanade and held her close to shield her from the explosions. Sure enough their where loud bangs followed by me and Kanade being thrown a few feet away I was still holding her she didn't say anything throughout the whole thing this time I was on my back and she was on top she sat up straddling my hips I would have got up my back really hurt (It wasn't her I think it was the shrapnel) "Are you ok?" I asked coughing she nodded.
Then we both heared more explosions and we looked up...the ceiling was coming down! On us a lest I thought that before the ground benth us gave way we both fell to the bottom and as I fell my last thoughts where "I am going to kill those guys"
Girls POV: Old Guild
We had just arrived at the old Guild after demolishing the other one "Will you be alright here?" I asked the leader a man known as Chaa he scratched his beard "Yeah Yuri don't worry this place is more secluded and theirs plenty of dirt." he answeared wiping his thumb over one of his google specks "he always seems to have them dosn't he" I thought to myself "Well ok then we'll let you get set up come on Otonashi." said boy nodded and followed me out.
After awhile Otonashi spoke "Um Yuri what do we do now?" I knew what he was referring to the stranger who was aiding Angel after some thought I answered "We're going to retrieve our comrades and return to base and make an announcement to the whole Battlefront that Angel has gained a new ally which means we have another enemy to fight." he nodded and we continued walking in silence towards the exit.
