Hey guys I be back. Loving life and all that. God bless the readers that are still here and didn't get bored. I'm watching Duck Dynasty right now for those of you that care. Anyways there really ain't much I can say if you don't remember what's happened so far then go back and read. Cuz I ain't gonna go through half of this page just explaining, so ya'll just go and read. Cuz that's what the youth of America needs to do. And the youth of other countries too, but I'm sure they're better at it that us.

Chapter 6: The push

Puck

The truck skidded to a halt. They were in the middle of the woods, the battle raging all around them.

"We've been hit, get out and move." The driver yelled

Puck threw the back door open and the Guardians poured out. The guy behind Puck got hit and went down.

"MEDIC!" Conners yelled dragging the wounded man away

Gunfire blazed all around them. Puck could see Guardians all around them, and Scarlet Hand. Tanks from both side rolled through the forest. Explosions rocked the ground and knocked Puck off of his feet. O'Riley grabbed Puck and hauled him to his feet. They bolted through the battle and tumbled into a trench. The Guardians inside the trench were barley holding back the Scarlet Hand. They were outnumbered.

"WE NEED REINFORCEMENTS!" One of the guys in the trench yelled

"THEY'RE ON THEIR WAY HERE! WE JUST NEED TO HOLD OUT!" Puck yelled back

Conners was leaning the wounded Guardian up against the side of the trench. Two other guys were trying to stop the blood flowing. He had been hit twice in the chest and was bleeding out.

"WE STOPPED THE BLEEDING!" One of the medics yelled

"GET BACK!" Conners yelled

He ran off to the side and one of the medics followed. The other didn't get so lucky. One of the tanks fired directly into the trench and hit the medic and the wounded Guardian.

"FUCK!" The medic screamed "GIVE US A CHANCE YOU BASTARDS!"

Puck stood up and fired a quick burst before ducking back down. Conners had set a light machine gun on the edge of the trench and was pouring rounds into the line of Scarlet Hand soldiers. Puck kept firing quick bursts. But even with the tanks on their side, the Scarlet Hand was getting closer and closer. Puck looked up with shock when he realized they were now only seventy five yards out.

"THEY'RE GETTING CLOSER!" Puck yelled

"FALL BACK!" O'Riley yelled

They relayed the order down the lines. Puck hopped out of the trench and ran. The tanks started reversing and Guardians were taking cover either on or behind them. A Scarlet Hand tank blew away one of the Guardian tanks and any Guardian within a twenty foot radius of it.

"RUN! RUN! THEY'RE OVER RUNNING US!" Black yelled

Puck turned and saw he was right. The Scarlet Hand soldiers were right on top of them. Most of the soldiers had resorted to hand to hand combat. Puck felt a tremendous force on his side. He hit the ground hard and rolled to the side. Above him was a Scarlet Hand soldier with a knife raised high above his head His cold soulless eyes met Puck's, and he thrust the knife down.

Sabrina

Sabrina didn't know what was happening. They were watching what little of the battle they could see from a drone. They were sitting in the control room. Fifty feet below the Guardians main base. Screens lit up and Charming was attempting to move Guardians into position around the town. Most of the battle was in the woods. Even though it was the middle of winter and the leaves were gone, the smoke from the battle was so thick it was hard to see.

"Enhance the camera, use the heat vision." Charming ordered

One of the soldiers clicked a few buttons and the screen turned black and white. The ground and explosions were black but the soldiers and vehicles were white.

"Sir, third battalion is being overrun." One of the soldiers reported

"How far out are the reinforcements?" Charming asked

"They're there, but they can't break through." The soldier reported

"Pull in our reserves, we can't let them get any closer." Charming ordered

"This is Nobel Actual," A voice came from one of the radios "We need some support."

"Predator missile in bound." Another voice buzzed

Sabrina saw a streak of white then a cloud of black filled a corner of one of the screens. Sabrina couldn't stand watching the battle. She had to step outside for some fresh air. She'd ride up the elevator, into the house and step out onto the back porch. The Scarlet Hand wasn't close enough to restrict her from that.

Unit 532, Scarlet Hand marksman team three, sniper

532 peered through the scope. A Guardian crossed his line of sight and he squeezed the trigger. The Guardian spun and dropped in mid run. He lay face down. 532 always enjoyed the thrill of the hunt.

"532, do you copy?" A voice came through his headset

"532." 532 answered

"The Guardian on the tank gunner in sector 5172593 is giving us a bit of trouble, eliminate him." The same voice ordered

"Yes sir." 532 answered

He scanned the Guardians but he did not see a gunner on the tank. Then he saw him, he had ducked down to grab an extra box of ammunition. 532 inhaled and held his breath. Peered down the scope and lined his scope up. He squeezed the trigger. It was a head shot. The Guardian flailed backwards and tumbled from the top of the tank. 532 pulled back his blot action and looked back through the scope. He was positioned above the outskirts of the town. The snipers wouldn't be able to help much unless they were inside the woods, so his job was to help keep the reinforcements out.

"I'm running low on ammunition, will need a restock soon." 532 reported

"Copy that," 769 said through the headset "Sending a supply unit up."

532 looked back through his scope and scanned through the crowd of fighting Guardians. They were trying to push through to the woods but so far the Scarlet Hand lines were holding up. 532 looked down at the red hand print on his chest. It was a mark. 532 looked back up through his scope. He saw a team of Guardians making their way inside the school. A closer look gave him all the information he needed. A sniper, a spotter, and two guards. He lined up the shot and squeezed the trigger and struck the spotter in the back of the head. The sniper grabbed the spotting scope from his fallen brother and the three of them raced inside the building. 532 grinned. He loved the thrill of the hunt.

Cpl Derick Cole, Guardians, Marine assault team Delta, Heavy machine gunner

Cole sat on top of the tank, firing into the Scarlet Hand soldiers.

"WE HAVE TO BREAK THROUGH!" Someone yelled from his side "WE JUST GOT WORD THAT THIRD BATTALION IS BEING OVERRUN!"

Cole doubled his fire rate and signaled for another belt. Sergeant Blaine threw him up another box. Cole dropped the belt out and slapped the other one in. Once the clip was loaded he let another burst fire at the Scarlet Hand soldiers. The tank behind them fired at a building and it crumbled to the ground.

"I KNOW YOU HATE GAS STATIONS!" Cole joked through his headset "BUT THAT WAS JUST UNCALLED FOR!"

"SHUT UP AND KILL THOSE BASTARDS!" The tank gunner replied

Cole let a burst fly at the Scarlet Hand. The tanks began advancing the Guardians began pushing through behind them. The Scarlet Hand scattered and began running off in all directions.

"WE GOT EM! THEY'RE FALLING BACK!" Someone yelled from behind him

A battle cry rose up from the Guardians and they began pushing forward.

Unit 192, Scarlet Hand demolitions team four-four-two, rifleman

192 turned around and looked at his battered troops. They had orders not to give up, but if they didn't retreat now, they would be destroyed.

"Orders directly from the master," 445 said "Fall back, let them through, withdraw, we have the target."

192 nodded and signaled to his troops to retreat. They jumped from their various hiding spots and began retreating back across Guardian lines.

Sabrina

Sabrina's head hurt. Why did it hurt so bad. It was throbbing so bad. She could feel the blood pumping and with each thump her head pounded. Her eyes were blindfolded.

"She's awake." Said a voice

The voice sounded so robotic, so rehearsed. The way the Guardians had described the Scarlet Hand voices.

"Sit her up." Ordered a voice

This voice sounded so familiar. She had heard it somewhere before, but where? She was yanked violently and thrown against a hard metal surface. The blindfold was ripped from her eyes and she was looking around in a dimly lit room. No wait, it was the back of a truck. They were moving. Sabrina looked around as her eyes adjusted. Four Scarlet Hand soldiers and a man. He was tall, with long blood red hair and a troublemaker grin. He was dressed in a Scarlet Hand officer's uniform, decorated with stars on the chest, and a giant blood red hand print in the center of his chest.

"Hello Sabrina," Said Atticus Charming "Long time no see."
