Ch 4: The Hornets' Nest
I looked towards the source of the scream to see a blood soaked blade pierced through the chest of the soldier. He screamed more in agony has he reached for his chest dropping his weapon on the ground which went off shooting the cock pit with a volley of bullets, one of which I took right in the shoulder with the others ricocheting into another soldier. Wow this hurts, but that is just pure luck that it hit the other soldier. Just as the other two soldiers were reacting two shots went off, the heads of the guards simply exploded.
"What the fuck is going on?" Torchwick screamed as he turned around to see the soldier who was impaled collapse revealing behind him Blake, followed by Ruby with her Crescent Rose still smoking. I took this moment of shock that Torchwick was enduring to grab my revolver and take three shots at him, both of which hit him in his left shoulder.
"ARGHH" He screamed turning around aiming his cane at me. "You bastard, you shot me, you fucking shot me."
"Unless you want Ruby to take a shot at you, and trust me she is a better shot, drop your weapon" Blake screamed.
"Shoot at me and I'll blow Mako and that entire cockpit to shreds with a hair of a trigger pull" Torchwick screamed still in pain. "This is going down how I want it to, the two of you are going to drop both of your weapons as I make my escape, move a muscle and I'll splatter Mako's brains across the dashboard of the wrecked ship. Now drop'em" He muttered. Blake and Ruby complied only for Torchwick to swing his cane around and pointed it towards Blake.
"Too easy little Kitty" He smirked as he pulled the trigger sending a blast right at Blake sending her to the ground.
"Blake!" Ruby screamed as she ran over to her fallen friend.
"Adios kids, its been a blast" Torchwick muttered as he ran back into the fort towards the last remaining dropship only to see Yang shoot one of the other WF soldiers trying to get on.
"Fuck, what are you doing here" he asked aiming his cane at Yang who was being followed by Weiss.
"Just finishing up what we started" Yang replied, cocking her gauntlets.
"Best forget about me, your friends been shot" Torchwick added. I couldn't see her expression that well from where I was but Yang's face suddenly looked very distressed as she ran towards Torchwick pushing him out of the way as she ran towards Blake. Weiss tried to stop him from getting on the ship but was to pinned done by the soldiers shooting from the ship to try and stop Torchwick from escaping. Just as his ship took off everything went black and I ceased to even think.
