I Don't own Worm or Arknights
Recap
"So what do we do now?" Asked Natalya
"I don't Know." Sonya told the girl as she sat at an armchair thinking about how their friends stuck in that abandoned garrison were holding up.
The group was then snapped off of their thoughts when they heard the door knocking.
"Who is it?" Asked Anna.
"It's me Sif." Sif said as as Lada opened the door.
"Hello Miss Sif what brings you here?" Asked Lada.
"I am here to send you to your combat instructor, now come along." Sif said as she led them to the training room.
Location Unknown
"It's seems that dear Ol' Sif wants my help, guess Svaha will also be involved." Liz thought to herself as she grabbed her greatsword and walked out of her home got into the motorcycle and went to the coordinates Sif sent to her phone.
As Sif was leading Sonya and her group the Chernobog survivors could only look at the Lupo-Knight lady in front of them, with slight suspicion due to them wondering why were they being treated this good from an organization filled with Infected like Rhodes Island.
"Why?" Sonya voiced the group's question to Sif.
"Why what?" Sif asked back.
"Why are you helping us, you know how bad the infected were treated in Chernobog, so why?" Sonya asked Sif.
"I am not the one you should ask kid, that'd be my boss Kal'tsit, but if you want my answer, I think that she truly believes that there can be chances that the Infected and Non-Infected can live together, but until then it will be an arduous task." Sif said before they arrived at their destination.
"Just a moment." Sif said as she knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" Came a female voice.
"It's me Dobermann, Sif." Sif Replied as the door opened to reveal a Perro woman who looked in her late twenties black hair, though she was a head shorter than Sif, brown eyes. She was wearing a black suit that exposed her midriff, wide pants, and brown shoes, along with a pair of brown gloves.
"Hello Dobermann, Hope I wasn't interrupting anything." Sif said in an apologetic tone.
"No there isn't a problem at all ma'am, what can I do for you?" Asked the Combat instructor.
"Yeah, we got fresh recruits behind me, they're survivors of the Chernobog Uprising." Sif said as she pointed at the U.S.S.G girls behind her.
"I see, but wouldn't be wiser for them to rest a bit due to possible trauma from those events?" Dobermann asked the Lupo.
"I am well aware of possible Trauma, but it'd be better to deal with it now, than to let it fester." Sif told Dobermann.
"Very well, come along kids, I will whip you into proper shape for Rhodes Island Operation." Dobermann said when suddenly a red and grey blur shot past her and smashed right into Sif.
"Sif!" Exclaimed the girl that turned out to be Projekt red.
"Hey Red, can you please let go of me?" Sif requested when Red simply tightened her grip.
"Not until you come and play with me." Red said.
"What does she mean by play?" Natalya asked.
"Our play usually involves sharp objects and a really sharp sword." Replied Sif.
"Oh." Was her simple reply.
"Guess I will have to send that report to Kal'tsit later." Sif muttered to herself, knowing that Red will cling onto her until she agrees to "play" with her, before she turned her attention back to Dobermann.
"Is there anyone inside?" Sif asked Dobermann.
"Other than the new Recruits that are with you along with Eno, Sasha and Red? No Ma'am." Dobermann replied Replied.
"Alright, make a sparring spot for me and Red would you?" Sif aske Dobermann.
"Aye ma'am." Dobermann replied as she went to make the preparations ready.
"Come along Red we are going to play together." Sif said as the aforementioned Lupo let go of her.
"Alright!" Exclaimed Red as she ran back inside the training room.
"I swear that girl is far more energetic than she let's on." Said the woman as she followed inside and walked up to a weapon rack, where a claymore rested, and she grabbed an unassuming dagger.
"Mrs. Dobermann why is Mrs. Sif using a large sword and a dagger, isn't the sword large enough that it'd needs both arms to carry it?" Asked Anna as she saw Sif's unconventional weapon choices.
"I know what you are trying to say kid, but you are forgetting that Sif is much stronger than she appears with ten years of combat experience under her belt, and now you have a front row seat to the spectacle." Dobermann answered the girl's question.
"Yup Miss. Sif is really strong." Replied Eno recalling some of the matches that he saw of Sif had with Red, Dobermann or other operators.
"Indeed." Came a female voice causing the people present to turn around and see a blond Kuranta woman she wore a long shirt that extended all the way to her butt, a white vest, a white cape with the Kazimierz coat of Arms that hung over her shoulders, black stockings and heels.
"Hello, Whislash." Said Dobermann as she looked at the Busty lady knight
"Hello Dobermann. I'd appear that Sif's giving the rookies a spectacle?" Whislash said as she looked at Sif weapons at the rady.
"You have fought her before?" Asked Lada.
"Why, yes, both of us were finalists of the previous Majors in Kazimierz, at the time she was just an Independent knight if I recall correctly." Zofia said as she recalled her fight with Sif
"If I recall Knight Artorias was the one that trained her." Dobermann said as she recalled the match, which she saw on TV
"Yes." Whislash said with a nod.
"Ready Kid?" Asked Sif as she pointed her claymore at Red with a dagger at her side.
"Always." Red replied as she readied two knives and lowered her knees.
"Alright, if you are ready, you may begin." Dobermann said as the two combatants charged at each other.
Sif brought down her Claymore but Red jumped high enough to go behind Sif's back but the Knight saw it coming and used her dagger to block Red's attack, and retaliated by swinging her Claymore at Red who again managed to Dodge.
"Not bad kid, not bad." Sif complimented Red who remained silent, and the former put her claymore around her shoulder.
And suddenly Red threw her knives Sif, who used her dagger and claymore to block them, suddenly Red pulled out two knives from her jacket and charged at Sif again with a kick but the latter had managed dodge the attack and kicked Red away.
"What have I told you about getting cocky, Red?" Sif asked Red.
"Never get to overconfident, search all angles of attack and go with the one that offers the elimination of the Enemy." Red Replied recalling her lessons with Sif.
"Good." Sif said as she charged at Red, but stopped mid point as she plunged her dagger in to the ground and used it as an ancor and made a 360 degrees swing, which Red narrowly avoided and Sif continued her attack as she removed her dagger from the ground and lunged at Red with both dagger and claymore ready to strike, but Red was faster and kicked Sif hard enough to interrupt her attack and placed a Knife on the latter's throat.
"I win!" Red exclaimed as she jumped in the air declaring her victory.
"Yes you did Red, Yes you did." Said Sif with a smile on her face as she gave the younger Lupo a noogie.
"I've gotta say, the match was fun, and Red has really improved since the last match." Dobermann as she analyzed the match she just saw.
As for the Chernobog survivors slash new recruits the could only stare in awe.
And Eno? Eno was clapping seeing the great fight he just witnessed.
"Alright, I will leave the new recruits to your care Dobermann Whishlash and I expect you to train them till the can barely breath, understood?" Asked Sif as she looked at the Perro combat instructor.
"You need not worry ma'am, I will not allow new talent go to waste." Dobermann said as she gave a salute.
"We will train them to the best of our abilities." The Kazimires Knight
"See to it that you do, anyways I will be going to give report to Kal'tsit, see you around." Said Sif as she began to leave the training area.
"Have a nice day." Said Dobermann and then turned around to face the new recruits.
"Alright recruits let's get started." Dobermann said as she looked at the Ursus girls, and the response she got were slightly scarred looks and a small sneeze from red who seemed to have fallen asleep from the duel and was new hugging her tail.
"Fluffy." Red said as she continued her sleep with the folk inside the training area looking at her strangely.
Inside Kal'tsit's office
"You let them do what?!" Kal'tsit exclaimed as she looked at Sif.
"Yes I allowed them to conduct that rescue mission to Chernobog to rescue the U.S.S.G kids trapped in the city." Sif calmly explained as she looked at Kal'tsit with a calm expression.
"You know that we were lucky to have gotten out of that dead city, Sif if we stayed any longer we would have been dead! Now go and tell them to call off the mission we aren't send any operators just to have them sent back to us in body bags." Kal'tsit told Sif.
"Kal'tsit you should realize by now that Rainbow team isn't going to listen and besides they have enough training and experience for high intensity operations, and hostage rescue mission, you can trust them." Sif Told Kal'tsits who merely let out a tired sigh and slumped to her chair.
"Who are going besides team Rainbow?" Kal'tsit asked Sif.
"Blitz said that Ace and Scout agreed to come with them to provide support Kal." Sif told the Feline.
"Anything else?" Sif asked Kal'tsit.
"I send a request to Elizabeth to provide support for them, I have a feeling that her sister and Arotrias have been involved with the Chernobog Uprising." Sif said catching Kal'tist's attention.
"And what makes you think that the Wolf Knight and the Blood queen had been involved to have you called to her sister?" Kal'tsit asked Sif.
"I know Artorias more than anyone and, something as big as the Uprising of Chernobog's Infected population sees like something he would have done, or at least his other half." Sif told Kal'tsit who perked at the mention of Artorias' other half.
"Come again?" Kaal'tsit asked Sif.
"Artorias has a case of Dissociative identity disorder due to the infection he has, at what the rate the infection is at, I have no idea." Sif told Kal'tsit.
"And Maria?" Kal'tsit asked.
"I have no idea, but I heard rumors that she's the head honcho of Reunion's intel gathering unit." Sif informed.
"What are the chances that they may be being led into a trap?" Kal'tsit asked.
"High." Sif simply said.
And suddenly the office phone began to ring.
"Yes?" Kal'tsit asked.
"Kal'tsit this is watchtower, Pequod just lifted off for Chernobog along with Rainbow team, Ace and Scout." Watchtower informed the defacto leader of Rhodes Island.
"Thanks Watchtower." Kal'tsit said as she closed the phone.
"They left, huh?" Sif asked Kal'tsit.
"Yes." The Feline responded.
"Now we can only hop for their safe return." Sif said as she began to walk out of the office, leaving Kal'tsit to her own thoughts.
