Chapter 37: Destruction

The Legion Airship…

The Legion Army gearing up, readying their weapons for the mission alongside with two of the elite five: Jinx and Mellka. Jinx checking her weapons if she's good to go even her bombs while Mellka check her ammo, gearing up for the mission. She looks over to Jinx and sees her lunatic friend upgrading Chompers.

"Upgrading your RPG launcher?" Mellka asked.

"Yeah. All my guns need to be ready for some mayhem. I'm going to create a lot of explosions and destruction! Oh man this is going to be so cool."

"Just make sure you stay focus on the objective. Remember we're looking for any clues about the Black Chaos Emerald. Even some information on how we can bring down the magic barrier around Magnolia."

"Yeah but we still can't get that damn thing down. It's look like it's bulletproof."

"Because it is. Everything is bulletproof. It looks like it's indestructible. No matter how much we try bringing it down, it's always that tough to be taken down."

"Which it still sucks. I want to cause mayhem to Magnolia. I want Scar to be proud of me."

"You really do adore the boss don't you?"

"He's my soul-mate! The way he fights, the way he kills people, the way he brings destruction, and the way he does things his own way. He's so inspiring and hot! That's what I love about him."

"Right… I adore Scar too. If it wasn't for him, I would end up in jail or killed. He gave me a family and the Legion is my home. I owe a lot to Scar and I will do anything for the boss."

"Me too. Besides we're on the winning team and the resistance won't last this long. It's only a matter of time until they'll get their asses kicked since they're so called hero isn't here to save them anymore."

"And that the truth."

"Now then, let's stay focus on our objective."


Elsewhere, the resistance stronghold…

The resistance are all on guard to keep away the Legion and the Alvarez Empire from destroying the stronghold. They had fought off the Alvarez Empire troops to ensure victory. The Alvarez Empire were defeated as the strong members of the resistance take them down so that they wouldn't call for reinforcements. The resistance rested up and getting ready to start their objective until all of sudden, there are some loud explosion can be heard as someone breach through the walls of the stronghold.

"Everyone, battle stations!"

*BGM: Blue Stahli – Down in Flames*

The resistance get ready for the fight. They expected that the enemy would be coming and they were ready for the fight. The resistance begin to ready their defenses and fight off the Alvarez Empire again but to their dismay it isn't the Alvarez Empire this time. It's the Legion that came knocking on the door the airship arrive and begin to shoot their firepower at the stronghold which the resistance did the same and use their defenses to fight the Legion off.

The Soldiers from the Legion burst through the gates of the stronghold and take charge and start fighting the resistance with the resistance fought back and use their weapons or magic to fight them off. The Legion get the upper hand and started off strong but the resistance activate their defenses with lacrima and even the odds to take down most of the Legion troops. The defenses even weaken the airship's firepower with more defenses activating and getting the upper advantage against their enemy.

"Keep it at everyone, do not let them destroy this stronghold!" the commander ordered.

The resistance put up much of a fight against the Legion and isn't backing down. They had a job to do and will do anything in their power to stop the Legion from destroying the stronghold. However, that soon would come to a failure when all of sudden, Jinx appear out of nowhere riding on a missile and laughing maniacally.

"Ahahahaha… AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAA!" Jinxed laughed.

Jinx got ready and jump as the missile came crashing down and destroy half of their defenses leaving the resistance to be vulnerable. Jinx takes out her mini machine gun and start firing at the resistance, killing them in an instant and splatter blood on the ground. Jinx creating a bloodbath, killing most of the resistance that she sees or coming at her. After unleashing a lot of ammo of her mini machine gun, she takes out her RPG launcher: Chompers and fire at some of the resistance up top of the gate and destroys them, killing them in a blast and Jinx fires another one again at the defenses that had lacrima and creating a massive explosion that shook the stronghold.

With that explosion, it destroy more defenses with lacrima still inside and it turn the tides for the Legion. And so, the airship then fire its weapons at the stronghold and destroying half of the place leaving it in ruins. Mellka decides to join in on the fun so she jumps down and takes out her gun and fire it and killing some of the resistance with her bio-glaive. She summons her green blade and start slashing her way through the resistance and creating a bloodbath. She jumps on top of the resistance soldier and shot him in the air with her gun and shot a puddle of venom to the nearby resistance soldiers killing them as they were poisoned by it. Her ability launch her up in the air and uses her blade and unleash a barrage of lace blades that deals incredible damage with venom.

Mellka again use her blade to slash through a few more resistance and soon joins up with Jinx as she uses her electric gun and fire it at some of the resistance with Mellka doing the rest to kill them off.

"Ahahahahaha! This is fun!" Jinx said.

"Hell yeah it is! Can you hold off the resistance long as you can?" Mellka asked.

"Of course I am, I love causing chaos."

"Good. I'm going after their commander of this strong and get some answer out of him. Meet me there once you're finish."

"Got it."

Mellka heads inside and fights through the resistance along the way. They even use some melee weapons and their magic but Mellka shot them down and use her blade to even the odds knowing that won't stop her. She tosses a few bombs to blow them up in pieces. While Mellka is busy dealing with the commander, Jinx took the liberty to toss some of her custom made bombs and creating some more explosions and dealing more resistance as she pleases. Jinx reloaded her mini machine gun and shot more bullets at the resistance unleashing her wrath out on the resistance.

"Hahahahahaha! Come get some motherfuckers!" Jinx laughed.

Mellka stabs on of the resistance soldier by the heart then grabs him and uses him as a shield. She block away their assault and kicks the dead body leaving a bomb on the dead resistance soldier and detonate and explode to kill a few more of her enemies. Mellka reach kicks the door and aims her machine pistol at the commander.

"Alright bastard, the jigs is up. You can't win and you can't beat the legion. Now tell me what I want to know?" Mellka demanded.

"What do you want to know, you've already killed my men. What more do you want!?" the commander countered.

"How do we take down the magic barrier that is protecting Magnolia?"

"If I know, I wouldn't tell you anything you bitch! I will never answer to your pathetic leader Scar, he shall regret the day that he killed Sonic. You all will pay for this and creating so much destruction."

"I doubt it but since you disrespected the boss, it's time you learn your place."

Mellka takes out a fire bomb and tosses it at the commander and hits him with it. The commander begin screaming as he is on fire and Mellka just watch in amusement. The commander scream and try to roll on the ground until suddenly, there was a gunshot and it hit the commander in the heat completing a headshot. Mellka look over and sees Jinx who used her electric gun and making her appearance.

"What? I wanted to kill him for disrespecting the boss." Jinx shrugged.

"Can't say I blame you. I guess you got all the resistance of this stronghold?" Mellka asked.

"Yeah. We did, so did you got any information of how we can bring down that damn magic barrier that's protecting Magnolia?"

"No. Even this bastard doesn't know anything about it. Shit! I forgot to ask about the Black Chaos Emerald but I doubt he knew anything about it."

"That sucks. Well at least we completed our job and all we got to do now is destroy it and by destroy it is by blow this shit up!"

"Are the bombs are set?"

"Hell yeah. I got the others to set up the bombs."

"Good. Now let's get the fuck out of here."

"You and me both."

Mellka smile and she and Jinx exit the room and out of the stronghold. After hopping back on the airship, they took off and Jinx then detonate the trigger and cause the bombs to explode and leave nothing but pure destruction. Jinx sat and watch the destruction, the explosion like watching a movie with Mellka by her side and cross her arms. Later, she gets contacted by the boss himself: Scar. She accepts the call and give him the report.

"Did the job went well, Mellka?" Scar asked, contacting Mellka.

"Yeah. We destroyed the stronghold and we're on our way back to HQ for another mission. However, the commander didn't know anything about how we can destroy the magic barrier at Magnolia and I'm sure he didn't know anything about the black chaos emerald."

"I see. You guys did a wonderful job and that makes me happy. Return back to HQ at once, Riven and Connor have something important that they want to tell me."

"Roger that, we're on our way now."

Mellka ended the communication and Jinx regroup with Mellka.

"Was that the boss?" Jinx asked.

"Yeah. He order us to head back to HQ for an important meeting. Riven and Connor has something important that they want to tell us and it looks it's important and legit."

"Ok. Well time for me to take care of my babies."

Jinx skip ahead and go adjust her weapons. Mellka heads on in to get herself a drink to celebrate this victory for the Legion.


Legion HQ…

Scar located Scythe who is sharpening his dual scythes.

"Scythe, I have a mission for you?" Scar stated.

"I'm listening, what do you want me to do?" Scythe asked.

"Head to the campsite at the outskirts of Hargeon Town. Destroy the resistance and leave none alive. If you happen to spot any wizards, kill them."

"You got it, I've been wanting to kill more resistance and teach them to fear."

"Good."

Scythe return back to his work and prepare to leave or his next mission. Scar smile and heads through the hallways, he then encounters Brandish waiting for the blue and grey hedgehog.

"Brandish, came for another visit?" Scar asked.

"Yes. My squad have finish with their mission and I needed a stress relief from what has happen to Dimeria. Can you help me?"

"Of course, how can I refuse a damsel in distress?"

This brought Brandish to smile. Scar takes Brandish's hand and guides her to his quarters for some private time.
