I look to my master as we see Mr. Bernadotte and the others in the Geese battalion push forward. With the help of the Titan mech the Republic has. "Master Integra what else is there for us to do? For the most part we've already pushed back the brunt of the enemy forces." Master Integra pulls a breath from her cigar to then exhale. Master Integra "We'll have to leave some of the Geese here with Captain Bernadotte in command. We want to make sure that Colony's back up forces get here to help keep stability while the fifth chair replaces the other chairs positions. But most of all we need to compose ourselves for when we have our joint attack on the Unics new stronghold. From what King Finn's Merc's have told us they now hold control over the Elf Empires Garnet gates just south of the free bazaar port. Those gates function as the second command center for the Empires fleet. And from what the Empress has told us the Unics have been doing work up the forests due north of the gates. No doubt they're looking for something that will help them. But with their forces now smaller then they were before they'll be using their hidden Unics more." I scratch my head "Hidden Unics master who are they?"
Master Integra "They are not Unics they are forced Meta beings that the Unics have been capturing. King Finn's family has encountered a few of them. One of his sons even has a weapon one of these hidden Unics used in battle. But more over things are going to get worse if we have to fight them head on conflict. We need to finish things here before we go assist the mercs under King Finn's employment." "Master Integra how will we handle King Finn's son. From what you say he's being controlled by this Deadmau person too along with the other hosts?" Master Integra "We'll leave him to his father. King Finn anger isn't something I wish to challenge. Nor do I think it'll be wise for Alucards position with the vampires if we do harm to their former queens son. Many of the vampires of the Isles hold and still believe Marceline is worthy to be their ruler. But more over we must wait for those mercs to report the positions and other information that High Guards hold beyond Garnet gates." "Well from what I've heard they may have a weird since of things. But they do get the job done. And they'll also have help from the Elves too." Master Integra nod "Yes but I also hope that a certain pair will prove helpful to finishing the coming battles. But only time will tell and against someone who can move through our presence of time. Alucard and King Finn will have their hands full." I've been under my master's command since the start of the third vampire wars back into the late twentieth century. But to think they are still beings alive that are or could challenge my master.
Third person's View
Climbing along the side of the mountain as mildly cool air beats down onto them. We find four of the nine mercs aka the Fortress mercs. King Finn personally employs the nine-member team as a means to do jobs that require either. No legal or illegal ties back to him. Sometimes the mercs can even go to places he can't or is not allowed to go to. Often that place is the Republic and the upper borders of the Empire. As the four mercs press on they wonder when they'll meet their contacts. Scout groans "Why are we here? We should be with everyone else looking for this Shifter guy. The boss will double our pay if we can tell him where he is right now too." Spy slaps the antsy woman's arm "Quiet fool. We are here for just that. The Unics have a way to find out where he is and call him to them. If we find that device or whatever it is we'll help push this conflict into the bosses favor. How are we doing on time Engineer?" Engineer taps his shoulder robo-arm to have his sunglasses light up. Engineer "We're doing good rendezvous just another half a mile along this route. I just hope the others are ready for pick up with the second half of the Specialist team we're meeting." Sniper "No worries mate from what the guy that dropped us off said. The team meeting us trained under the boss directly. I don't know about you all but that's a surprise. Boss never told us he trained others. Sure he trained those two Meta beings Arch and Gallant but who knows who else he's trained."
Scout "Well we'll find out if they're full a shit real soon though." As the team continues across the mountain range along the southern bend is the rest of the mercs. Heavy stood guard as Demo and Soldier keep watch over their somewhat covered escape route. Pyro and Medic sit in the jeeps not really up for being frontal assault fighters. They were always the rear guards so to speck. Heavy "Doctor how long before the elves get here?" Medic "Well if my watch is right they should be here any minute now. But I forgot the last time I tuned my watch... So I might be off." As the mercs sit in wait Pyro continues to flip and close her lighter. Pyro being who she is loves two things. One the constant beauty that comes from fire and her very close secret of all is her love for her boss. Often many would just stare at her large bust and well-endowed figure. But king Finn simple keeps his mind composed and properly talks to the female merc. Only a few people could actually understand her too and one of them being king Finn. Aside from king Finn her fellow mercs are either scared of her or just can't understand her speech pattern. Heavy whistles as several elves came out from the brush clad in camouflage and their own take on flex fit combat armor. Two of the lead elves were dressed more regal compared to the others with him. Heavy "So are you the elves we're asked to meet?" The lead elf slides back his white hood to nod "Yes I'm staff commander Cile and this is brass sergeant Pir'tu. We're in command of the sentry squads its a pleasure to meet you Fortress mercs."
Demo "Like wise mate. Is that second team meeting our friends?" Brass sergeant Pir'tu "Yes Captain Drush should be meeting the rest of your team along the mountain ridge closest to the compound. For us we'll be moving further up along the opposite end to help secure their escape. But we need to move Deadmau's plans are moving forward from the radio traffic we intercepted enroute to you." As the elves load into the jeeps they quickly move to the new location. Over with the other mercs Scout was looking over the elf captain. Scout "So Cape I heard you know our boss?" Spy "Scout not now." Sniper "Really love we need to focus not ask the elves how they know our boss." Captain Drush "Well there's a reason why King Finn has so much power and influence here actually. Most know the rough story from King Finn's book but from what I've heard and what you've asked. People don't know how much of an actually impact King Finn has had in the world." Engineer "I heard the boss talked to your empress and the other leaders of the world to unite and work toward better communication with each other." Captain Drush "Mostly that's the rough explanation. But in actually King Finn has shaped the Highland Empire from the moment he traveled through our lands. King Finn trained me and the other specialists in the art of Fencing. Even taught us one of the dead languages of his people. The other specialists and myself were very young and we didn't know how much of an impact him training us would have.
"Roughly two years later our Empress as she still was a princess assigned us as her personal guard. Later on as time passed our skills grow and so did our prowess in fighting. So much so that we trained officers who then trained soldiers. The empire became as powerful as it is because King Finn trained us. People in our army even speak the language king Finn thought us out of respect. The empress asked King Finn not to reveal these facts. Not wanting our past selves to look like weaklings as the Unics have proclaimed us to be. We owe King Finn as do other countries even his own country owes him as you know. Being a hero and ruler is not easy. And once this Deadmau person attacked his family everyone close to Finn knew that we couldn't risk lose him again. The corruption, the vises, the monsters, and beings of power that have sprung up in his absences are clearly a sign. That without him giving the world wisdom or aid we would have fallen long ago. It was King Finn who helped the Republic expand their mining operations along the barren continent. It was King Finn who opened trades between Colony and the Empire. And it was King Finn who sacrificed himself for the freedom of the world... even after the betrayal he still hopes the world will stop fighting one another... But I fear that sometimes our nature to live will make us do drastic things. Just look at what remains of the Republic." Scout "Whoa boss really is a great man. Still I heard he was happier when he was younger. I can't see it he's always either calm like a fortune cookie. Or pissed to the point his eyes could kill you."
Captain Drush "King Finn maybe like this now. But I did see him when he was only a year or two older then me when I first went to the academy. I was considered weak because I knew little spells and had no skill with an energy bow. But Finn he was real he showed us that no matter who you are. Practice along with the right teaching made you better warriors then you once were. After only a few months we beat better skilled spell casters then we could ever dream of doing before." Spy "Well if we do our job boss will be able to beat off this fool. And we all can enjoy a time of peace." As the second team continues one of the elves stops giving the captain several hand signs. Captain Drush "Ok this is where our snipers will cover us while we break in and gather the information we need. We also will have to slow them from moving as well. Scout you and two of my runners will place C4 on their heavy armors. We can't let their air support and canons have control of the skies. Once we have the information we'll leave while the explosions go off." The teams nod and split up Sniper along with the two other energy rifle elves nest at a ledge with trees hiding their position. Sniper taps his earpiece "Stay low the drift from the snow will cover most of you movements." In the compound a Unic working the radio system taps his supporting officer. Unic "Sir I'm picking up weird static coming from two different locations." Unic "Tell the paroles nearest the two spots to keep a lookout."
Relaying the orders through their net system the Unics wait. Heavy and his teams setup walking to provide support when the get the signal. Heavy "Pyro setup molten mines along our right flank. Then setup flash traps along our rear." Pyro nods and begins to walk a good twenty feet from their setup. Placing the explosives to their front Pyro also places a small motion ping stick down before the mines. Walking back in her own footsteps Pyro returns and walks a good few paces to the groups rear. As Pyro sets up the flash bang and ping stick in the ground she feels the call of nature. Looking around for a moment Pyro finds a bush and ducks inside it. Unbuckling her belt she pants Pyro pushes them down along with her cotton panties. Usually Pyro only needs to put on a thin soft rubber padding over her privates when she wears her normal clothes. But it being so cold she had to wear warmer underwear. As Pyro relieves herself she finds her thoughts returning to her boss. Pyro hums feeling the warm burn inside of her glows ever so softly. When she first met her boss he was a mystery yet he had a face that made her swoon to him. But she saw he didn't care about how she choice to display herself. A few times Pyro accidently let her ass brush against her boss's hand just so she could feel a small touch from him in a lustful way. But Pyro knew that his heart would always remain with his wives. Pyro wishes that she had a chance with him. Our just wished that he could know her feelings for him.
Seeing him burn someone alive with his dragon shout was simple beauty in her eyes. And to know a strong man like Finn wasn't afraid or affected by fire. It made her fetish for fire and the immortal king to be hers all the more fantastical. With her natural duties finished Pyro pulls up her pants and returns to the team. Over at the ridge overlooking the base Sniper watches as the infiltration teams takes out a few guards. Scout "I hate having to wear enemy clothes." Spy "Zip it. We need to get in and find what we came for. Sniper are we clear still?" Sniper "Yes move along the right side and head into those storage buildings." Scout confirms moving in a low crotch peaking into the storage buildings. Scout signals to Spy with her hands that there are three inside two facing the door. While another one is distracted with a TV. Spy slips in from the window moving low to the floor. Finding the two standing close by Spy springs into action pistol whipping one Unic in the throat to stab the other under its chin and up into their head. Pulling her knife free Spy whips the dazed Unic again into throat to stab it through the mask. After a few seconds of struggle the Unic goes limp and Spy pulls her knife from its skull. Sneaking to find the last one. She finds the last Unic still watching the TV. The Unic then stands abruptly touching his shoulder radio "Yes sir I'll get my team and look around the check point." As he turns Spy knees him in the nuts to then stab him through the neck. Spitting up blood and trying to control his impulses the Unic still flails onto the floor. Until he slowly expires.
Spy leaves through another window and she and the others return to finding their targets. Spy "Scout you and the runners go now. Sniper you have to leave your position and complete you side of the mission." Sniper "Right away love good luck." Sniper nods to the two elves with him and they move to the furthest side of the compound. Energy rifle elf "Sir what is our new target?" Sniper "We have to knock out their jammers. If they remain they'll have control over who enters the battle. And if the UOK army is to move freely we need the elementals along with King Finn to fight with their powers." Sniper stops and points to the energy complex for the jammers. Sniper "Ok you two we fire together dampen the energy flashes on your rifles. It'll cause each shoot to toggle but be calm." The two elves nod and link up their shots. Sniper "You two take the ones in the tower three... two... one..." As they fire both Unics go limp to one side the watchtower and another outside of it. Sniper takes his own shoot at a guard too far from the complex to be noticed by anyone outside. Sniper "Shit looks like we have another patrol helping the guards at the complex. This might get harder you two so pick you targets fast and hard. One miss and we're exposed." The elves nod and begin to clean the outside of the complex. Scout and the two runners are now moving along side the lift that does maintenance on the Unics machines. Scout smirks "Lets plant our surprise and get out of here." The runners nod to work their way around the maintenance yard. Once finish the three races off in the cover off the snowdrift to find the others. In the terminal building Spy pulls her knife from inside one Unics chest. While captain Drush flicks his saber clean of blood. Engineer pushes a Unics corpse off the control panel of the terminal control and starts the hack. Engineer "Spy get on the roof I need you to realign their comm's antenna."
As captain Drush and his elves stand ready Engineer starts through the data. Storing the data in a drive Engineer nods seeing Spy return. Spy "Scout where are you we're ready to go." After a minute of no response Scout returns Spy hails. Scout "Guys we're snared ground floor." Captain Drush and the others move making it to the catwalk over looking the ground floor. In the middle of the room you can see Scout and the two runners surrounded by Unics. One Unic clearly dressed different from the other holding a large long handled mace over his shoulder. Unic "I can hear you up on the catwalk. You have twenty seconds to come down and surrender. Or I kill one of you allies and trust me it'll be messy." Captain Drush radios "Scout did you plant the C4?" Scout winks her head and captain Drush looks to Engineer. Captain Drush "Hack the remote trigger she has fast. The distraction will give us time." Engineer nods using his robotic arms touch screen to work fast. Scout gulps as the Unic stops in front of her. Unic "I'm not like the elves here. I was born alone in Colony along with my friends. But very few people get us... or gets what we can do. Or understand why we can do what we do. Some of us don't have a choice in who we listen to but I'm ok with doing this." In a swift move the Unic swings the mace to bring it down on the head of the runner to the left of Scout. As the elves warm blood splatters across Scouts face all she feels is dread as the odd guy in front of her pulls back his blood soaked mace. The guy takes off his mask to show that he's a pretty young human. He looks no older then sixteen his green piercing eyes a hard contrast to his light brown skin.
Guy "Times up." Reeling back his weapon one handed the guy looks to swing again but the multiply explosions from outside shakes everyone. Scout and the other runner book it for a window allowing captain Drush's elves a clean area to fire on. The guy with the large mace back peddles weaving from their shots as if he's floating off the floor. Once in cover the guy orders the Unics to go after Scout and the runner. Both of which are running through the burning blaze of twisting metal and machines. Spy and the others make their move rushing after the two who are keeping a good lead. The two sprinters once more with weapons in hand open fire in their made dash clearing or making Unics duck for cover against their wild shots. Sniper and the two elves with him managed to sneak into the power room for the jammer. But with the explosions going off he knows their time for escape just got drastically shorter. Sniper pulls a special termite grenade Pyro gave all the mercs. Even with her muffled explanation the other mercs new that the termite was a last means weapon. Sniper places the termite into the main power uplinks and pulls the pin. As the termite goes off Sniper and the elves run out and snatch up two snowmobiles that are park outside. As they race to the evac Heavy and the others aren't doing so well. Pyro's defenses stood no chance against the two Meta beings the Unics sent after them. As Heavy's Gatling gun fires away the two Meta beings showing little worry for his weapons attack. The lead Meta being has a large shield latched to their arm as each laser bolts hits the shield starts to glow a little more. The other Meta being is zooming around like a pink blur dodging Demo's explosive shots and his bounce mines. The Meta being laughs and to Demo's shock gets in too close and rocks him off his feet.
Hearing the buzzing sting of white noise Demo tries to get his barring's. While Pyro and the Medic try to force back the Meta being. To the side staff commander Cile and brass sergeant Pir'tu are double teaming another Meta being. This one having four spider like metal attachments on her back as she blocks and tries to push back the two elves. But unlike the other elves in the Empire Cile and Pir'tu continued to train themselves. As the two remain completely in sync with the other Cile thrusts using an ice spell to trap the Meta beings leg. As she tries to pry her leg free Pir'tu goes low slashing upward breaking her guard. Giving Cile the chance to thrust and pierce her shoulder to send her fly back with a wind spell. Hearing her cry the shield Meta being slams his shield into the ground causing several jagged rocks to erupt and force Pir'tu and Cile to back off. Demo shakes off his dazed state to lift his eye patch. With his missing eye now glows a bright static like blue he pulls his claymore from his back. Demo takes a swing at the speedy Meta being causing her to back off as he laughs. Demo "Wee lass you're going to regret making me mad!" Swing after mad swing doesn't connect but as Demo continues to swing his Eyelander the sound Meta being back peddles not wanting to get hit by the angry Scotsman's weapon. Pyro sees her chance and flanks the side in a smirk Demo backs off to the Meta being shock. Only for her shock to double as she sees the large plump of fire screeching to her. Using her sounds she kicks up the snow under her and tries to gain distance. But Medic opens fire on her with several syringes from his rapid syringe gun. Raising her hand not a second later she shields herself from most of the syringes.
But a few hit her legs making them numb and making her feel off balance. Shaking her head she races off back to her allies. The three Meta beings group and fall back as the blast of the explosion in the compound reaches them. The three nods and race back to the compound. Heavy "Everyone get in we need to meet them along their path. If they set off the charges now meets things are bad." All three groups meet up as they race down the open path towards the iced lake to their final evac point. The two infiltration teams smile seeing Heavy lay down fire from his Gatling gun. Captain Drush "Here comes our evac chopper keep it tight we're almost out." As the armored chopper comes in for pick up a smaller chopper comes in from the west. Staff commander Cile "Is that small chopper our back up?" Brass sergeant Pir'tu "No shit carrier two nine nine watch you left side enemy chopper aiming to attack!" But it was too late a large blood colored tendril whips out from the side of the small chopper and clips both the wing of the armored chopper. The chopper pilot calls out saying she's lost control and immediately hits the lakes icy surface.
All the teams stop in shock as the ice cracks and splits from the choppers impact. Captain Drush and sergeant Pir'tu jump from behind the jeeps and stab the lake both casting ice spells to stop the ice from cracking anymore. The elves rush to help the crew from the crashed chopper. The small chopper lands and the mercs aim for the Meta being. To their shock they see prince Connor and his cousin Fox walking to them. Scout "What the hell? Prince Connor and Fox your ok?" Before the mercs or elves knew it Fox extends his hand over his shoulder to have several pieces of his new weapon separate from the main weapon system piece on his back. It quick assembles itself in his hand creating an odd glowing amber color pistol. In several quick shots the young marksmen disarms everyone every the Specialists. Prince Connor "Sorry but this must happen everyone as of this moment you are prisoners of the Unic party." Demo "I've got a feeling that Deadmau guy's messed with the kids heads. Lets knock em out of it." Soldier cries his attack along with Heavy and Demo both charging with their melee weapons of choice. Connor smirks as he morphs his arm into the blood colors appendage from just moments ago. As it springs forward with black razor Connor's appendage strikes like a bullwhip. But not wanting to kill the mercs outright Connor dulls the razor whips joints.
All three mercs are throw off their feet with little effort landing hard on the ground. Connor and Fox walk to stop just inches from the fallen mercs. Prince Connor "I'm sorry to say but this is happening. Don't worry though you all played your part and if I had to guessed Engineer you sent the data to Colony just as Deadmau saw. Slowly everything falls into place. There is not stopping what's to come and even my father will have to face this fact too. Our world will met and end of an era and you all just as I are apart of pushing it there." Before anyone could reach their weapons Connor lashes out several oozing blood like tendrils from his back snatching up their weapons and tossing them behind him. Prince Connor "Now we wait for your escort to take you all to your holding ceils." As they wait everyone is shocked seeing the large blood tinted black-scaled lizard now resting on Connor's shoulders. Connor nods seeing a large group of Unic vehicles heading their way. Connor looks to the three specialists elves "I can see it in your eyes you know my father personally but I'm not my father. For the world to evolve and be ready for things worse then their own fears. We must learn to face then without aid sometimes. And you all will watch this change happen once this war reaches its end." As the Mercs and the Specialists team are surrounded they are barked at by the Unics to comply with their orders. Pyro most of all the mercs worry for the young prince and his cousin. In hoping that Finn can save them from the choices they are making now.
Smiles; Oh boy someone's got family problems.
Jester; Yes he does but still hope you all likes it. And if you can please like, share, and comment if it's not too much.
Smiles; Peace off and WE'LL HUG YOU ALL LATER!
