Alrighty so my spring break has started so this may be my last chapter for a while. Why you ask? Simple because I do 90% of my writing in class.
Any way almost all of the characters you meet are my OC's you will know if they are not
RWBY is owned by Roosterteeth and the Late Monty
Enjoy chapter 6
By the way tell me what you think about the story so far.
The Grimm come in waves, piling against the wall of bullets that the defenders of the tower lay down. The Grimm's bodies only stay long enough to be seen before dissolving away.
Finally there is a break in the attacks, it is at most five minutes until there is a call from above, "We have another team coming in; it looks like more initiates," A pause until a worried follow up comment, "The horde is after them!"
"Covering Fire!" Grimm fall as the weapons of the defenders open up again. The beasts fall left and right as the four initiates come closer with the monsters of darkness nipping at their heels.
"Come on, through here," Saras yells, the group runs towards her calls as Alec, Jasix and Tyler make an opening. A minute late the four initiates make it through the door, with the Grimm breathing down their backs quite literally. Alec, Jasix, Saras and Tyler attack the monsters as they attempt to push into the tower. They push back the beasts switching to their ranged attacks making the beasts break off their costly assault. Quickly they replace the barricade in the doorway.
"Thanks for the save, I do not think we could have made it for much longer."
Alec nods, "no problem, we were not going to let you be Grimm chow." He looks at the weapons of the four. Each of the large muscular initiates, two male and two female, hold large shields and tightly made pole arms which currently each in some kind of rifle form. "How are you doing on ammo, I doubt any of the stuff we have her will help you but we have a few crates of assault rifles and more than enough ammo for them."
"Thanks I have a bad feeling we will need it," one of the large muscular men say as he passes rifle to the other three.
Alec nods, "you all look like a shield team."
"We are right now but we are probably not going to be on the same team when they actually check our totems."
"Alec nods again finding himself doing so more than normal, "can you four stay down here with us your abilities and equipment will be most useful to holding the door." The four give jagged and tight nods. "If you will excuse me I have a call to make," Alec says pulling out his scroll and dialing a number. "Hello Beacon desk?"
Yes this is.
"I am on the initiation test and I need to talk to the Headmistress. Now please."
One moment I am transferring you now, the woman says excitedly.
After a moment another voice that is a bit more familiar speaks, Yes?
"Hello my name is Alec…"
I know give me a status report.
"We are surrounded, running low on ammo and we are missing at least eight other initiate. We are in need of their positions to go and get them. We also need an ETA for our evacuation."
We are on our way one hour to one and a half hours. We do not know the locations of the other initiates. We lost them.
"Give me their last known coordinates," Alec says with determination.
I cannot allow you to do that.
"That is what we are training to do Damn it! Tell me where we are!"
Alec you do realize what you are asking of me? Do you really want to do this? You can just hold the tower until we get there, we have hunter teams on the way.
"I am going in," the call is hung up and Alec's phone receives map information from the headmistress.
"Are we clear for the moment?" Alec yells up.
"Yes," Is the reply from the top of the tower.
"I need you all down here. We need to chat." He turns as the initiates come down, "Our evacuation will be in an hour or so," everyone seems happy with the news. "But we have initiates still out there and they are probably in trouble, alone, possibly wounded, low on ammo and the academy says they have lost them." He turns to turns to Jasix, Tyler, and Saras, "you don't have to do this."
Jasix jumps at Alec with an angry face, "You know I am in."
Tyler and Saras looks at Alec with faces that tell him that they will not leave him.
Alec nods, "We need to go find them. I need another team of four to help, the other three teams will hold the tower so we have somewhere to return to." He looks around at the sixteen other teams, their faces are cover in dark smudges with splashes of reds and yellows and blues from their specialized dust ammunition. "I can't force to go, but by this map we couldn't save them all with one team."
All of the others begin talking in the groups they have been part of. After a few minutes there is a decision from the others, A man steps forward holding two kami pistols. "We will go, I am Massm My partner is Azuil, and those with us are, Irine and Jipsy."
"Alright I am going to send you the recon map data. You guys look like a recon team, right, light and fast?"
"Yes."
Alec nods, "Take the six in the north then, there are less Grimm but more space to cover."
"Alright," Mass says, "grab as many assault rifles as you can guys, those we find might need them."
"Ready?" Alec asks receiving a series of nods and grunts as a reply.
"Alright Keep the house warm for us," he says to the twelve left behind as he leads Jasix, Tyler and Saras out of the tower.
