"What's the name of the target you ask Leo?" Said a certain muscular armored being.
"Yea, I mean I wasn't there for the information, I barely just caught up to you guys." I replied. I did not just spend half an hour rushing out of base to catch up to Braht, Bitch, and Rabac to not know anything about my target. Right now we're in a dense forest heading towards an abandoned castle or supposedly abandoned until recently.
"Hah idiot, if you don't even know the mission why both…'
"Shut up pinkie pie." I interrupted the pink bitch before she could finish. I could hear a chuckle from Rabac as we were running, but that went silent when all the instincts in my body told me to duck. Between a half dive and sliding motion I noticed a laser fly over my head. "And this is what we call a mega bitch." I called out as I ran to Braht's side.
"I'm going to kill you!" Yelled the bitch.
"Please remember to be careful, there are two of us in this body now."
"Yea I know, I'll be sure to be careful."
"Mine just try to calm down.. atleast he's talking." Rabac said.
"Why don't I blast you instead! I saw you trying to peep on me earlier!"
"All of you quiet down we are on a mission." Ah the mature one of the group, thank you Braht. "Our mission is to take out a man named Kayaba. With help from the Minister he has kidnapped over a thousand slaves and is holding them in his castle. He has been forcing them to fight each other and random danger beast, it is our job to take him out and free those slaves. Now hurry up!"
I looked back to stick my tongue out at bitch, until I saw something different with her. Her eyes seemed determined now. Is she serious about this or maybe mega bitch, mega trick? "What happened to Mine, she seems serious?" I whispered to Braht.
"Slaves in this nation are usually foreign members, and she happens to be half blood from the west and empire. As you would know there is discrimination."
"I.. I didn't know." I took a look back at Mine. I kinda feel bad, she may be a mega bitch, but she has earned the right to be.
"Remember we're a family in Night Raid, we are all bonded by the evil we commit for our sake of justice. You should try to be nice to her and everyone else."
"Okay.." I slowed down my pace until I was by Mine's side.
"What do you want? Come to pay respects to the genius sniper?"
"I uh.. I'm sorry."
"What's this, you have a heart?" I heard a sniffle and looked at Mine, she was mocking me after I just apologized, and now she is wiping her face with a handkerchief. She truly is a mega bitch.
"Nope, nevermind." Giving her a deadpan stare, I ran back ahead. "MEGA BITCH." At this moment I knew, I fucked up. A blast from pumpkin skimmed across my face, I could feel blood trickling down my cheek slowly.
"Mine no more injuring allies. Leo stop provoking your allies." Braht called out. After that only a snicker could be heard Rabac.
"Alright, I'm sorry Mine let's get along." Words I never thought I'd hear myself say. I only got some grumbling in response. Glad we can be civilized. "Hey Rabac is there something going on between you and the boss? You see.."
"I have no clu.." I got interrupted by Rabac and he by Braht. Karma for the win.
"Enough there is still some more information needed to be known about the target. He has a teigu so we better be careful as we approach the castle."
"What does his teigu do?"
"It's based around illusions, it lets out a mist that can put anyone into a trance. He can make anyone without a strong willpower so any number of hallucinations that he sees fit. It's name is Wonderland." Braht voice tensed up slightly as he spoke of the teigu. Is it that dangerous? Just some simple mind tricks it seems.
"Is it really anything to worry about? It sounds as if it's just some mind tricks."
"It isn.." Braht began to say.
"Sh don't tell him, let him experience it himself." Rabac said. Experience what? Are they underestimating me?
"Sigh a teigu is a powerful weapon Leo, never take one lightly. Although a teigu that whbonds with it's host are of course the most powerful any experienced user can and will take you down if underestimated."
"You too? Are they that powerful even you can't protect me? Even from just a simple mind trick?"
"I guess you'll have to experience the power of a teigu before hand."
"It's starting to get dark out guys, let's set up camp here soon and then we shall leave an hour before sunrise. Attacking at sunrise is the best, as troops are either awakening and still tired or just about ready to sleep."
"You seem to know about fighting, did you use to a soldier for the revolutionary army?"
Braht chuckled then replied. "No Leo, I was a soldier for the empire. I served faithfully until I finally had my eyes opened as they turned their backs on my leader.
"I.. I'm sorry to hear. Anyways let's stop up here and rest."
We're all sitting next to each other, in a clearing a couple miles out from the castle.
"It's about time sleep soon, Leo can you take first watch?" Braht asked.
"Of course, you three can rest easy."
"Alright be sure to wake us whenever you start to feel tired."
"I will Braht you can place your trust in me." I feel confident about this. I only ever feel tired whenever I battle so I'm sure I can stay up all night.
"Also wake me up if there are any cute girls!" Chimed in Rabac. What is with this guy and hormones? A cracking noise caused me to turn towards Rabac. Mine's fists were repeatedly striking his head.
"Why do I have to be on a team with these two idiots!" She yelled.
"What did I do to deserve being called an idiot?"
"You just always are! Be sure to wake me up before you mess up!" Sigh mega bitch is at it again. Out of the corner of my eyes I saw brought scoot closer to me.
"Don't worry that's her way of saying be careful, she isn't that bad once you get to know her, so please try. Leone isn't the only person on our team that cares about you." I looked over at Braht and smiled until I noticed a slight blush on his cheeks.
"Th-thanks… b..better get r-r-rested up no-now." I managed to stutter out as I scooted away. He's a lot kinder than I thought he would be. That's a relief. Yet that crush thing he has makes things awkward sometimes.
"The Demon of the North isn't showing up at all. Here I was hoping for a good battle." Esdeath sighed, this battle bored her. As fun as it was to dominate the battlefield for her, it was missing something since no warrior could even stand before her. "Maybe I should of brought Leo with me. It would of been a good chance to see his strength." The sound of footsteps interrupted her train of thought. "Come in."
"Ah yes General." A soldier said while walking into the General's tent. "We've taken over the enemies camp and captured their leader as you asked."
"If that is all, bring him here."
"Yes General." With that the soldier left in a hurry.
Esdeath walked over to a desk in her tent and grabbed a pair of gloves. With a sadistic grin slowly growing on her face she said. "Guess I'll get to have some fun after all."
"Wake up, the sun is going to rise in a few hours." I called out to the sleeping three.
Braht was up and ready in a heartbeat. "Ah Leo you stayed up all through the night? That's reckless." There was a hint of anger in his voice as well as concern.
"Don't worry, my teigu has an effect on my body where I don't require as much sleep."
"Alright, just don't overwork yourself. Can you wake the others while I stretch?"
"Can do." I watched Braht stretching for a moment until he decided to make things awkward with one line.
"It's hard if you're watching me like that Leo." He said while making eye contact with me and a blush on his face.
"I..I.. I'm go..gonna wa..wake them u..up n..n..now." I stammered out as I made my way towards Mine. Looking down at her I smirked, it's a prime chance for payback. Eh better be nice, we need to be friendly for the mission. I reached down to shake her but right before I was able to her eyes shot open, and a blast from pumpkin shot where I was standing just a moment ago. "WHAT THE FUCK PINKY PIE, IF I HADN'T MOVED I'D BE DEAD!"
"GOOD, PERVERTS THAT TRY TO GROPE A GIRL IN HER SLEEP DESERVE TO DIE!" She yelled while aiming pumpkin right at me.
"Grope? Grope what? You have nothing on you too grope washboard!" I may have just went overboard. All I could see was Mega Bitch shaking in what I would assume to be anger.
"Y-y-y-you I'M GOING TO KI.." She went silent, and we locked eyes as a look of pure shock slowly enveloped her face.
"Uhh…. Are you going to let that go on?" Taking a look at Mine not everything would seem out of place if it wasn't for a hand on her chest from a certain pervert. I wonder if she can even hear me right now.
"He is the most unlucky pervert I'll ever know."
"You can say that again.. poor soul." I kinda feel bad for him.
"Najenda why are you covering yourself with a chessboard~~." Rabac said in his sleep. He must of been in heaven, well a rude awakening to start the day it is.
"He's fucked."
"You can say that again."
A light enveloped Rabac's body, making him disappear for a moment. When the light was gone a lone cough was heard, and any hint of green was now hidden behind a layer of charcoal.
"I need a doctor.." With that Rabac hit the ground with a thud.
"Hey Braht can you carry him till we get close to the target?" With that I took off towards the castle.
"What in the literal fuck just happened guys?" I was astonished. Who would've thought our target would die without us even touching him.
"Honestly this has never happened before. I don't even know what to make up of this." Replied Braht. Everyone seemed shocked, we just what the fuck happened to our target.
"Should we take credit for this or?" Asked Rabac.
"Uh do we still get paid is what I want to know." I didn't travel this far for no reason.
"We better, we went all this way too kill that bastard." Ah bitch making sense for once.
One Hour Earlier
"Hey Braht this is the castle right?" It seemed lackluster, and there was a huge fight scene going on. These slaves were just swinging their weapons around at the air. All except one.
"Yea it is, that guy that isn't attacking is the teigu user, but why is he standing in the middle of the field?" The guy was standing in the middle of all those kids, he's just asking to get a stray blow to the body. "Mine take him out please."
"Can do." She laid down and aimed her gun towards Kayaba. She may be pinky pie, shit at stealth in that bright ass outfit, but she's a reliable sniper. Now if she just wasn't such a mega bitch. I watched her lower pumpkin with a surprised look on her face.
"Why are you lowering pumpkin?"
"Some broad with chestnut hair let go of her sword in mid swing and it stabbed our target in the stomach." Mine replied emotionlessly.
"So you're telling me, you lost to a sword in range fight? Some sniper you are. Hahahahaha!" I fell down onto the ground rolling around while laughing. "Too damn funny, it hurts! It hurts!"
"And now some girly boy with black hair just stabbed him through the head, and blood and brains are oozing out. Mission complete." She said in a monotone voice.
AN: Ello once again. I found my creative spark again, I don't feel sick anymore. I'M READY TO GET BACK TO WRITING THIS STORY IN HYPER DRIVE. A comedic chapter hoozah. Pinky Pie, or Mega Bitch either/or is my target of dislike. I mean tsundere are the best to make fun of.
Ah I hope you enjoyed this chapter and the rest to come, since from here on it might get serious, or not. Who knows?
