Location: Night Raid base
Date: The next day
Time: Morning
Some of the Night Raid were up and getting ready for breakfast but
"Wait, where's Akame?" Tatsumi asked
"Maybe She's still sleeping. Leone, could you wake her up? Only she and Susanoo can make the best meals"
"Yes sure" Little did anyone know Leone had been drinking quite a lot the night before and right after waking up which made her quite drowsy during the morning.
On the way to Akame's room, Leone suddenly came across Jeff's room since it was on the way, "Hmm, I wonder how's he doing? Well, I guess I can take a look for a second" She opens the door and there she sees Jeff, resting on his bed, bandaged and still not awake. She approaches him just looking at how he actually looks like, his body was just huge, muscular and full of scars (from swords,bullets and others), which proves he has been though lots of battles. "He's actually not bad looking up close, and I thought he was just a strict coach" But then she felt a little tired "I guess taking a short nap here wouldn't matter (since his bed was quite big), besides, not everyone's really up so I guess there's no need to rush breakfast" She was not really thinking straight at this point (probably because of her drinking the night before and after waking up) and so she took a quick nap in his room, on his bed. While on the outside, Akame woke up and went to the kitchen to make breakfast while the rest woke up too. But no one noticed Leone wasn't around until Akame spoke up at the dining table "Wait, where's Leone?"
"Didn't she wake you up?" Najenda asks
"Um no I've not seen her yet. Maybe she got tired again? I mean she did drink a lot last night"
"Yea Maybe, Tatsumi, could you get her?"
"Sure Boss" He goes to Leone's room but it was empty, "Hmm, she not here, maybe I should check the other rooms aswell. He checked all the other room but 1 and still no sign of her. "Hmmm wait I haven't checked Jeff's room yet"
At the same time in Jeff's room
Jeff as the same time finally starts to gain consciousness out of all the times, and he opens his eyes. But it was completely dark and he couldn't see a thing. "Wha? Where am I?" He was still half asleep but manages to move. He rubs his hands all around trying to navigate his way out of bed until he felt something big, soft and round. "What's this?" He squeezes it a little and suddenly a moan came out he immediately pulled his hand back and thought "Wait, DON'T TELL ME!!!" He searches at the opposite side and felt what feels like the handle to open the curtains. He pulls it down and THERE WAS LEONE SLEEPING RIGHT NEXT TO HIM. "WOOOAH!!" Jeff jumps out of bed and lands at the side of his room which woke Leone up. "Jeff,don't make so much noise I'm trying to sleeping... wait JEFF!?" She was still half asleep before she got to her senses. "Leone... Did we do anything last nig- AHH!" He couldn't finish as Leone sprang out of bed and hugged him out of excitement until both of them fell to the ground, before suddenly Tatsumi opened the door "Leone are you in he-- OH!, I'M SORRY TO INTERRUPT YOU GUYS!!!" Tatsumi's eyes wide open as he saw Leone on top of Jeff on the ground.
"TATSUMI!! IT'S NOT WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE!" Jeff yells at him. "I didn't see anything Jeff" Tatsumi replies before he closes the door and went to the dining room while having a shocked look on his face.
"Hey Tatsumi, What's wrong? Where's Leone?" Lubbock asks
"OH NOTHING! SHE'S UMMM STILL SLEEPING YEA SLEEPING , Let's go eat"
"Hmm, Somethings going on here" Lubbock thought
Back in the room
"Umm Leone? What happen last night?"
"Nothing, I'm just so happy that you're OK, Jeff, you saved my life that day, I would be dead by now if you were not there and yet you were willing to save me from something that could've kill you. I don't know how to thank you"
"It's fine, we're friends right?"
"Yea friends..."
"Leone, I'm also sorry for earlier"
"Oh? Hahahaha, It's fine. Anyway, let's go to the meeting table, the rest of the team are waiting"
After Jeff knew everything that has happened when he was injured.
"So, We are now allies with Esdeath, King Killer Trevor and his team?"
"Yes, for now based on the intel we have gathered from going to the New Order's base, We attack soon. but we need a plan we will discuss this when Trevor is here, so for now we may rest for a while, we're free to do anything"
"I guess I could hunt for food today" Jack insisted
"I will join you, I wanna see how good your skills are" Akame added
"I guess I could check on Sayo and Ieyasu" Michael thought, "Tatsumi come with me"
"What is it Michael?"
"I guess it's time to check on your friends"
"Really?"
"Let's go" And when they arrived at the scene,
"Um Michael? are you sure they are Alive? since they don't look human anymore to me" Tatsumi saw his friends Ieyasu and Sayo with slightly rotten flesh, moving slowly and looked nothing like humans , they were more like a walking corpse but all their wounds have healed up.
"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? THIS IS A SUCCESS!, all I need to do now is stop and heal the infection, that day I already injected them with it. So once I stop the infection and neutralise their insides, they would be reborn. Tatsumi, you know what this means? By TONIGHT, they could be alive again"
"REALLY MICHAEL??? Is it really possible?"
"Yes, Actually, I can tell you it's a miracle that their wounds have healed, they are the 30% that could be revived though zombiefication. They are very lucky"
"Michael, Thank you, I can't possibly repay you for what you have done, if you have any problems, just tell me"
"Tatsumi, It's fine, we're friends, we're allies, we help each other in any situation"
"What's going on in here? Why do I always see you two going he- Um who are those?" Sheele followed them to the hideout which Michael zombified Sayo and Ieyasu.
"Oh Sheele, this is um well how do I explain this?"
"Ah Sheele, um how do I say this? these are Tatsumi's 2 friends that tragically died when he first joined the Night Raid few months earlier, so it's hard to say this but, with modern medicine, there's a chance I can revive them"
"Wait, you could do that?"
"Not anymore since all of the Z-Virus has expired"
"But what about them?"
"All their wounds have healed, and now it's time to heal the infection"
"So, they will live again?"
"Most likely, YES!"
"This is great Michael, I have no idea how you could do this. By the way, Tatsumi, Najenda is calling for you"
"Oh really? Ok I will see you later Michael" Tatsumi goes off to meet Najenda
"Michael, are you sure this is possible? I couldn't believe the dead could be revived in any method"
"With mad science, it is possible, but it doesn't always work, there's a 70% chance it might not work, still it's better to try than not. Sheele, could you tell the rest I'm busy doing something else till night? I kinda need to really monitor these 2 and make sure to cure them free from the infection"
"Sure"
"Thank you"
Back to the rest of the group Najenda announced a mission for them
"Night Raid, there's a new mission I need you to do, there's a pacifist religious organization called the Path of Peace that is inciting a religious insurrection towards the Capital soon. The Revolutionary Army plans to launch an attack against the Capital simultaneous to Path of Peace's uprising. But there's a problem, the adviser of the Path of Peace's founder is actually a spy for the prime minister. The adviser's name is Borick. He has been drugging several of the religion's followers into obedience. So with him around, there's no way to overthrow the Capital. So that is why I am assigning you to kill Bor-"
"You know either me or Trevor could take down the Capital alone?" Vadim interrupted
"... Alright but we need to prepare everything first"
"Fine"
"Najenda, may I join on this mission? I've heard some bad things about Borick, so I want to be of use to this mission" Jeff asked
"Alright then, you will join Leone, Lubbock, Mine and Tatsumi this time"
"Great, as for training, I guess we will start when I return" Jeff told everyone
A few hours later, after Jeff and his group went on the mission.
There was a knock on the door,
"Who's there?" Randall asked while opening it,
"Hey" Trevor was just right in front of the door
"Oh, Captain Trevor, What brings you here?"
"Is Kazakov there?"
"Yes, give me a minute Sir"
.
.
.
"Ahhh Irons, what do you want?" Vadim asks
"Wellllllll, I was planning to assault a New Order hideout that caught Hussein's eye yesterday. But he requested to kill some fat ass named Borick far from the Capital. The Terrorists at that base seem to be with some bandits, so I guess I get to kill more, You wanna join in?"
"Today?"
"YEP, at dusk"
"Alright, I will ask if any of my team wants to go" Vadim walks to the meeting room and tells everyone about the upcoming raid and finally as a result, Bulat, Chelsea and the T-800 will be attacking the Terrorists hideout.
"Randall could you go to the Jaegers base in the Capital? They are a bit more vulnerable with their injuries"
"Affirmative Captain"
"Um can I join? I wanna see how my friends are doing" Wave asked Randall
"Yea sure"
Meanwhile at the Jaegers base
Bols knocked on Esdeath's room "Captain, we need you immediately at the meeting table"
"Yes, I will be there in a minute"
She arrived at the meeting table, there was Bols, Run, Kiyoshi but not Kurome.
"Run, where's Kurome?"
"Captain, Kurome's missing we can't find her in her room. Her room was pretty messed up, so I think she's been kidnapped"
"WHAT? It must have happen last night. Damnit, Kurome doesn't have her Teigu, if the kidnappers are Teigu users then she's done for"
"Kurome?" A voice came from the window. They turn their sight to the window and see Randall sitting on the window staring at them.
"Who are you?" Esdeath asks
"My name's Randall, I'm part of Team 57X. Captain Vadim sent me to guard you guys from any New Order attack"
"Kurome's missing?" This time this voice came from the main door
They looked at the main door and Wave in front of it with a shocked expression on his face
"What do you mean Kurome's missing?" Wave asks
"Esdeath, I could tell that some New Order terrorists were here" Kiyoshi spoke up
"What? They must be the ones that did this. How could know?" Esdeath asks
"Their scent, I will always remember this smell, I could smell they were here"
"What? That's impossible!" Run answered
"For a Human, Yes. For a Werefox, no. It is not impossible. Werefoxes tend to have much better sense of smell and hearing. So, I guess if one of our ally is missing, we need to search for her right?" Randall suggested
"But how do we start? All we found was this small torn bit of cloth, but we have no clue from where it is from. Here take a look" Bols showed Randall the small piece which had symbol on it. Randall took a look and immediately knew what it was.
"Jaegers, you know what symbol this is?" Randall Questioned
"No never saw it" all of them answered
"Kiyoshi, I'm very sure you know what symbol this is" Randall showed Kiyoshi the cloth and instantly Kiyoshi's eyes widened "NO WAY! There's no way they could be here aswell!!!"
"Randall, what does the symbol mean?" Run asks
"This was one of the real enemies during WWIII, they started the war, killed millions of semi-humans over the years and hated many other human races aside from theirs. The New White Klan, they first started as a hate group in a country known as America in my world, some of them were ex-members or inspired by a terror group called the KKK. But the NWK was far worst and got bigger over the years. And in 2030 they completely changed, setting their minds on the extermination of those that opposed them and a total White Dominated World. They carried out a bunch of attacks all over the world which resulted in hundreds of death. They even took part in creating the New Order, they also played a major role in WWIII by fighting against the Rebel Army which despised them very much. I guess the New Order must have brought the NWK with them into this world. But I would believe kidnapping Kurome would be a way they want information"
"Well ok, but how do we find them?"
"That's another thing, but I guess it isn't too hard to identify them, they wear the same clothing as the KKK, which is usually wear a floor-length, solid-white robe and a white, sharply pointed hat that includes a full-faced cloth mask with eyeholes"
"Ummmm, Randall? we kinda saw people like those a few times already"
"What?"
"Yeah while we were out to raid a Bandits base, we saw a few people like those from afar"
"Alright, well then we could start there. Wave, Kiyoshi, let's go, as for the rest of you. Well You're all still injured, so stay here"
"Randall, You would you do this? In the past we wanted to kill you" Bols asks
"Well not anymore Kurome's one of you, which makes her my ally aswell. Plus I've seen that girl, I could tell she's been through a lot"
"Wait, how could you know that?"
"I could explain that later"
Wave leaded them to the scene. On the way, Wave asked Randall "Randall? How could you know about Kurome's past?"
"You do remember Jeff talking about the Sixth and Seventh Sense? This is part of the Seventh Sense, not only it enables the user to sense someone's honesty but also sense what's inside someone's body and could even feel another person's feelings. When I saw Kurome, I could also tell something was wrong with her body. It's like that's not the real soul that I was looking at, I believe she has drugged terribly to madness"
"You could know all that just by looking at her?"
"Yes, with the Seventh Sense, it's possible but the Sixth Sense has to be learnt first before"
"What does the Sixth Sense do?"
"Someone with the Sixth Sense has the abilities to sense the presence of another person especially an enemy and predict the moves an enemy would make"
Once they finally reached the scene, they searched the area and found a hidden base in a cave.
"Randall, you're the strongest here, So what's your plan?" Kiyoshi asks
"We bust in, kill the enemies, grab Kurome and go back"
"WHAT? That's not what I meant!"
"Alright, I could sense there are many enemies inside, But so is Kurome, she's all the way at the back of this base. Kiyoshi, Wave, both of you infiltrate their base. Kiyoshi I believe you can cause some commotion while Wave can rescue Kurome. Once you two have done that, I will bust in. But if you can't get Kurome because of some reason, both of you cause chaos in there " Randall explained the plan
They agreed, Wave and Kiyoshi went in silently though a small hole in the ceiling, then they saw the members wearing the clothing exactly as what Randall described "So, Wave, you could go ahead and find Kurome, I will wait here"
"Alright, when I have found her, I will cause a bit of chaos though"
"Yes then I will cause even more confusion here"
Wave moved all the way to the back where he found Kurome unconscious with her hands and legs strapped to the wall. But there were 2 guards nearby armed with rifles "Damn, this is going tough" But then he also saw a few other people locked in a cell at the opposite side of Kurome. "What? These people are all from the Capital, well I guess still need stick to the plan. But then again, I can't just leave them here. Aaaaaahh to Hell with the original plan" Wave went back to Kiyoshi and explained the situation. "Hmmm, I guess we both attack from behind, Wave. If they are armed, we could take their weapons after killing them to make this easier" Both of them went to the back got ready, and Jumped down. Kiyoshi threw each of his hatchets at each guard's eyes who grunted in pain but before they could fire, Wave in his Grand Chariot Armor has already slashed them dead.
Kurome slightly opened her eyes "Wave?"
"Yes, come on, I'm here to get you out" He opens the locks but she was still weak
"Thank You..." But then she fell into a deep sleep again
"Kurome? Kurome! No don't do this. Shit, I have to hurry, I guess she's too weak to fight back. I guess plan B is the only option now"
"Wave? Come here, these would make the mission easier" Kiyoshi checked the guards' weapons
"Alright, so Wave do you know how to use firearms?"
"Yeah but not so much though, wait why should we use guns? I mean it's kinda slow"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, firearms usually need to be reloaded after each shot"
"Baka!!!" Kiyoshi thought
"Wave, these are modern firearms, not flintlock pistols"
"Hmmm?"
"Nevermind, could save that for another day. Anyway, here this is a M16A4 rifle. I will teach you how to use it, first ..."
After Kiyoshi taught Wave has to use the firearms,
"So remember, with each pull of the trigger, 3 bullets will be fired"
"Got it, let's do this" Wave kicked the door to another room and opened fire "Intruders! Kill them!"
Kiyoshi and Wave fought through a few rooms until they reached the main operation room and started yet another gunfight.
All of the members however quickly noticed the situation and soon each had a weapon which started the gunfight between them.
"Damn, there's too many of them" Both Kiyoshi and Wave held their position under some cover. Suddenly, a grenade was thrown which landed exactly at their side "Wave! get back!" Kiyoshi grabbed Wave, leapt back and the grenade exploded soon after. "Wave, we must fall back, we are running low on ammo too"
They ran back but then Wave looked back and saw a familiar looking black eyed Swordsman walking towards the remaining NWK members. They noticed and began shooting at Randall, but the bullet went right though which didn't even cause a scratch on Randall. He took out his sword from it's sheath and a gust of wind combined with dust suddenly blurred the scene.
"Randall! Are you alright?" Wave shouted
After about 10 seconds the scene cleared and the sight was pure carnage which made both Kiyoshi and Wave's eyes pop out of their heads. All of the enemies had their heads chopped off together with a few random limbs causing fountains of blood throughout the place. "Alright, let's get going" Randall from behind shocked them both.
After they reached the prisoners room, they broke opened the locks, releasing the prisoners.
"Thank You Sir! If there's anything we can do to repay you, tell us, we can kill the remaining guards perhaps?"
"No need for that, instead I just have 1 simple task to give you people, collect the weapons from the corpses and put them in the huge box outside" Randall ordered
"Yes gladly!"
"Good"
Wave on the other hand had Kurome in his arms, she was hardly alive and weak. "Wave, take her to the Night Raid's base, Michael will patch her up"
"Wait Randall, you sure about this? I mean she did try to kill one of them you know"
"If the agreement was signed last night, that means all of us will help each other, so go on now, take her to Michael"
"Alright Fine"
"Good, Kiyoshi go with Wave to the base"
"What?"
"I need to guide these people back to the Capital and also there's something else I need to do, so go now"
Timeskip few hours
Randall had lead the people near the Capital, but he went back a few kilometres into the woods. "Alright, I can sense you, what do you want?" Randall asks
"So you noticed huh?" A voice came from some bushes. Then someone came out, she was a woman in her 30s, had probably the same height as Esdeath, had blond hair, wore a red shirt with black pants and a red cape. "So you killed some of us haven't you? Demon!" She showed her fist which somehow turned into a ball of fire, "For that, by the will of the New Order! I will burn you to Hell!"
"Go ahead and try" Randall replied
Her lower body turned into flames and she flew towards him, aiming her fist. He dodges the attack but she comes back this time her leg was half soild half fire, she kicks his midsection which turned into the black gas and thus causing nothing. "I should have known, you have the Fire Crystal don't you"
"So? What the fuck can you do? I will never die! No one could kill a Fire Crystal user"
"Oh really? I could tell it's at your left side of your abdomen. I wonder what will happen if I slice that part" Randall slowly took out his sword
She was stunned by how he could know where the Crystal was infused in her body "Fuck, guess I did not think this guy would have the Seventh Sense, I need to get out of here, fighting him is impossible" She thought
"Fuck you, I will kill next time" She throws a few smoke bombs to flee
"Hah, coward. Now where was I? Oh right, I gotta pick up the Jaegers since I guess people like her might attack them aswell"
And so he walks to their base in the Capital
