Steamer's POV
"Hey get up idiot!" Haumea barged into my room.
"Hmm." I simply rolled over in the bed to not face her.
"They're here, time to go." She said "Deal with them."
"That's not my problem." I yawned "You practically invited them here playing Giovanni's stupid game with the laboratory."
"Oh, come on, do it for me." She pouted.
"That won't work." I sat up.
"Doesn't hurt to try, Haha!" she laughed and bent over, reaching out and walking her index and middle finger up my chest like they were legs for her hand "And maybe if you do a good job there'll be a reward in it for ya."
"Bribery isn't gonna help either." I said "I'm here for you not to help this organization."
"Well I want…need the White Clads to succeed so if you're doing what I want and what I pay you for you'll do it."
"Really now, you're gonna play the logic game with me." I stood up and ran my hand through my hair as I looked down at her "How clever."
"You know I am." She laughed "Pack your stuff up we don't want them getting their hands on any of it."
"Fine I'll handle it." I said putting on my jacket "I'll be on the radio if I need anything."
"You do you." She hopped out the door "I'll be waiting for some good results."
"Here." I pulled out a briefcase and put some things inside it and locked it "Take this with you and wait for me I'll come get it when I'm done."
"Oh, a secret." She snickered looking at the case "What's inside?"
"Nothing you need to know about." I told her packing up a crate "Now don't you have a place to be?"
Haumea snickered and skipped off "Don't blow it!"
I walked down the dark tunnels of the nether, it was an old rail system that the White Clads turned into a base, for me it was an unloved home, the darkness I don't know what they see in the place, something about it being closer to the center of the earth.
"Well that's done, I need to find the others." A voice said.
"No, that won't be happening either." I said.
It was one of the fire soldiers and she seemed to have done a number on most of the people who confronted her up to this point.
"You're Maki." I hummed "I've read about you, former military, your father is an important member of the upper ranks of it and doesn't support you being a fire soldier, neither does your brother who's also career military. You're known for your ability to manipulate fire as a second generation as well as your brute strenght."
"Who are you calling a brute?" She growled "HUH?!"
"HMPH!" I ducked as she took a swing at me and I quickly shifted my arm and elbowed her in the stomach before trying to punch her myself.
"HYUP!" she grabbed my arm and threw me over her shoulder.
Both of us turned around and faced the other.
"Just like I expected Military close quarters is your strong suit but…" I dashed in and delivered two sharp punches to her kidneys before elbowing her throat "Close quarters martial arts are my strong point to!"
"Just try and keep up!" she reversed my next punch and kneed my stomach.
"ACK!" I coughed before sweeping her leg knocking her to her back "HYA!"
I went and tried to punch her in the faced but she rolled.
"Iron Owl!"
"HMPH!" I put my arms out and caught the metal pillars she was trying to have her powers hit me with "That's cheating."
"I didn't realize this fight had rules." She gave me a stern look.
I threw my jacket off and poured water on myself, feeling my body heat up. I shot in with a steam rush and started delivering a flurry of blows but I was surprised when she was able to keep up and block or limit each of my attacks.
"HMPH!" she caught me by the foot as I tried to kick her stomach "Got ya!"
"RAH!" I groaned as she turned my leg and pulled it back into a leg lock "Steam Blast!"
I blew my own sandals off and made her release her grip on my ankle.
"I was told I better get used to more straight up fights." I groaned shooting forward and spearing Maki and slamming her into a concrete pillar "Engine Elbow!"
I pulled back and slammed her in the guy again before grabbing her head.
"Full Throttle Slam!"
I threw her back and lifted her up by the neck and threw her down before slamming both my fists down on her chest.
"HAAA!" she made a loud gasp as I knocked the wind out of her.
"I should really kill you." I said lifting her up by her neck, my body dripping with steam sweats "You'll just be the first, my security camera caught you all entering, I'll snap your neck and then go and get read of the rest of your unit, I can't let you leave this place alive."
"TSK!" she scowled at me.
"AHHH!"
Before I could do so I heard a loud scream.
"Arrow?!" I looked over "…Dammit! GRAAA!"
I threw Maki down and knocked her out cold, I didn't want to waste time with her, it was more important to recover someone as critically important as Arrow was. I soon found her, but she was alone on the ground.
"Arrow." I turned her over "Are you alright?"
"I'm a…disgrace." She groaned covering her face.
"Move, I need to see it." I said pressing on her face "You've got a bad wound here…it's going to scar."
"I'd be better…dead…" she said.
"Stay with me don't pass out." I tapped her face "Come on Arrow…"
