They were making their way off the beach when there was an explosion in the distance and DuBois quickly aimed his weapon off where the explosion.
"Control, we have a disturbance south of here." DuBois informed them.
"It's just a diversion, Bloodsport." Waller reported in.
"All right, we cut through the jungle to get to Valle Del Mar." DuBois tells the group.
"They have city limits; do you have a plan to get past those?" Yuri asked, now wearing an all one-piece purple outfit with a bunch of yellow cloth hanging around her outfit.
"Not that I've been told." DuBois stated.
"You're supposed to be decisive." Christopher stated. "Otherwise, why the hell are you a leader?"
"And I've just decided that you should eat a big bag of dicks." DuBois stated. "How about that?"
"You're being facetious, but if this whole beach was completely covered in dicks and somebody said I had to eat every single one of them until the beach was clean for liberty, I would say no problemo."
"Why would anyone cover a beach in dicks?" Yuri asks in confusion.
"Who knows why madmen do what they do?" Christopher stated.
"Well, you know what I think?" DuBois questioned as he turned and stopped in his tracks. "I think liberty's just your excuse to do whatever the hell you want. Whether that's to eat a beach full of dicks or killing folk." He then went back to walking and the rest follow.
"Oh, yeah? At least I don't kill men for money like you or Shocker." Chris stated.
"Hey, I only kill when it's a necessity. Or when I'm pissed off at the person." Herman stated when he looked to Polka-Dot Man and shrieked at what he saw, causing everyone to stop and aim their weapons into the forest, not knowing why he screamed.
Abner was completely covered in...Polka-Dot's. Like, a dozen multicolored glowing dots growing underneath his skin and causing it to stretch out.
"There's something wrong with your skin." Cleo realized.
"It's just a rash." Abner tried to assure them.
"That is a rash?!" Yuri asked in shock just as there was a visible explosion off in the distance.
SUICIDE SQUAD (WIU CUT)
Back on the beach, Teresa was able to break away and sneak off and away from the soldiers unnoticed, but still taking a shot in the shoulder as she left Harley who ran for cover to dodge them all and ended up falling right next to Javelin.
Javelin was bleeding out and looked to Quinn. "You...are the only one...fit to carry my javelin." He then reached down and picked up his staff. (No, not that one.) Quinn then takes it from him. "Carry it for..." He tried to tell her but died just before he could.
Harley looks sad as she reached her hand to his cheek slowly and caresses it sadly.
Then she smacked his cheek as if trying to wake him up. "Carry it for who?!" She asked his corps, expecting some sort of answer. "For what? What the heck?! Who am I supposed to carry it for?"
She was then surrounded by a dozen of soldiers shouting at her to stand down or they'd shoot her.
"This is so irritating!" Harley stated, ignoring their warnings as she held the javelin. "He just told me I have to carry this javelin for a reason, but he didn't say why!"
Teresa groaned as she tripped and sled down a slope and smacked her head against the ground while still holding her left shoulder that was bleeding out.
Getting back to her feet as fast as she could, Teresa limped away from her location to get further away from the camp and tries to call for backup. "Waller? I need a extraction!" She cried as she tried to get as far as she could when she was suddenly met with a dozen guns cocking and aiming at her. "Fucking hell shit. Is the world against me getting answers?" She questioned sarcastically as she becomes surrounded by more of them.
They all close in and Teresa sees there's nothing she can do with her shot shoulder and twisted leg and surrenders to them.
The rest of the squad stopped walking as DuBois dropped a bag in the middle of a clearing.
"All right, we'll camp here, and tomorrow we'll go straight to the city to get to La Gatita Amable by nightfall." DuBois tells the rest of them the plan.
"Perfect." Herman sighed.
As they all sleep and rest for their mission in the morning, DuBois was awaken by someone groaning and moaning and saw it was Abner, who's rash spreads all around his hands and body along with all over his head. He got up and crawled away from the group and DuBois gets worried until he suddenly saw a glow and a bunch of polka dots flying out.
Herman was also waken by the flashing light and turned over. "Someone turn off the light." The lights than stopped as Abner walked back, and his entire rash was gone.
Sebastian then began to shriek and squeak at the group, causing them to look down and see him pointing away from them where they saw that Nanaue was currently holding Cleo up and was about to bite her head off.
"Schultz!" DuBois shouted, causing Herman to look and see what's happening and quickly placed his gauntlet back on and aimed at Nanaue before shooting a powerful blast that sent King Shark flying and through a few trees as he dropped Cleo back on her blanket, waking her.
Nanaue got angry and raced on towards Herman who began to charge up his gauntlet for another blast when DuBois beats him to it and used his riffle to send him toppling backwards against a tree.
This entire fight lead to waking up the rest of the team and they saw the two members fighting King Shark.
"What the hell is happening?" Yuri asked as she walked to DuBois and...Peacemaker...in his underwear. Only his underwear. "I'm not gonna ask about that."
"How deep of a sleeper are you?" DuBois asked Cleo.
"I was having the most wonderful dream." Cleo informed them.
"If it was about a giant anamorphic shark getting ready to eat you, then it must've been an amazing dream." Herman stated as he was aiming both of his gauntlets at Nanaue.
"I don't believe he would do that." Cleo said calmly as she kneeled down to Nanaue. "He has very kind eyes."
But then Sebastian informed her that it was the case, and he was indeed about to eat her. Which was followed by Nanaue confirming it.
"Hungry." Nanaue tells her.
"You bastard!" Cleo cried as she activated her wand that caused a hundred or more rats to surround King Shark and the others.
"All right, calm down with the rats!" DuBois demanded.
"What?" Cleo asked as she looked to face him.
"I have a thing with rats." DuBois admits.
"A thing with rats?" Cleo asked as Herman looked very confused but keeping his focus on Nanaue. "And you're on a team with me?"
"Not something I asked for!" DuBois shrieked as Christopher just laughed. "What are you laughing at?! Why the fuck are you in your underwear? Tighty-whities? Really?"
"Now that's just racist." Christopher stated.
"What?!" Yuri asked him. "That's not what racist means!"
"You didn't tell me that you have a fear of rats, DuBois." Waller called in.
"I'm an assassin! Why would I share my liabilities?" DuBois asked as he looked down and shirked to Sebastian who's holding a leaf in his hands. "For fuck's sake."
"Aw, he's offering you a pretty leaf to show you he means no harm." Cleo said sweetly.
"Why the fuck would I want a leaf?!" DuBois asked. "Just get the rats out of here!"
Cleo then turns off her wand and all of the rats are sent scattering through the jungle. After things calmed down from that, things turned back towards their hulking fish problem.
"So, are we gonna kill Megalodouche now, or what?" Christopher asked them.
"Nanaue's one of the strongest member of your team. You need him if you're going to have any chance of getting into Jotunheim."
"Yeah, well, we can't function as a team if we're constantly watching our backs to make sure he's not nibbling on them." Herman stated.
Cleo then takes a few steps towards the frightened Nanaue. "Nanaue, would you eat your friends?"
"I no friends." Nanaue says.
"You have no friends?" Cleo asked in sadness as Nanaue confirmed. "If you did, would you eat them?"
"Most likely." Herman stated.
"No...?" Nanaue answered, almost unsure of his answer.
"Then can we be your friends?" Cleo asks.
"Come on." DuBois scoffed.
"He's obviously lying." Christopher stated.
"And what exactly makes you the shark expert?" Yuri asked.
"If I die because I gambled on love, it will be a worthy death." Cleo stated and held her hand out to King Shark. "Friends."
Nanaue then reached out and shook her hand and caused Cleo to laugh, but then she turned back to the others and saw their mixed looks that ranged from smiles to looks of worry.
"You are a little idiot." DuBois informed Cleo before walking away from the rest of them back to the camp and cleaned up to move out.
Jeff was drinking his soda but coughed some off when he saw he did it.
"Oh, my god! I'm so good at my job." Jeff stated as he turned to Waller. "I found her. She's a mile north of the team." He said as he showed the location of Teresa.
"Task Force X, you have an additional mission directive." Waller reported to them. "We've located Agent Teresa Durand. She's been taken by the enemy."
"Wait, who?" Yuri asked as she smacked a leaf out of the path and followed the others.
"You're saying you have other operatives in Corto Maltese and didn't bother to tell us?" DuBois asks.
"There was no tactical advantage, now there is." Waller informed them. "I've uploaded her location to your MTS. Terminate her captors with extreme prejudice. Kill anyone you see; these are dangerous people. Recover Durand before moving on to the city."
It took them most of the night and into the early morning before they finally reached the campsite where they find that Teresa's being held on the opposite end of the camp.
"That's where they're holding her." DuBois reported to the others.
"Nothing like a bloodbath to start the day." Peacemaker stated.
"I'm sorry, I gotta ask." Herman stated as he turned to Christopher. "Peacemaker? Why?"
"I cherish peace with all my heart. I don't care how many men, women, and children I need to kill to get it." Christopher stated to him.
"I thought you were the crazy one." Cleo tells Polka Dot Man.
"I am." Polka dot stated.
"Let's get it." DuBois told them and they began to move in, ready to rescue Teresa from her captors.
