Well we've seen team MSFT fight and i'd say they did ok, one on one they'd have lost.
But now lets see how their teachers do also who is screaming?
Ok so an important note before we begin: Fídi can she see or not? Well honestly I was going have it that she could see if she wasn't wearing the blindfold, but as she's developed I kind of want to leave the answer up to you, the readers, own interpretation of weather she can actually see or not with the blindfold off, so when you read her section of the chapter please bear this in mind I'm trying to write this so it can be taken either way. Now if I don't get it right, I'm sorry but I am not blind myself or know someone who is blind, I have researched this so hopefully, i've written it in such a way i hope is right but if I haven't again I'm sorry, if you have any advice on this for future please let me know. Also when i say detecting Fídi is a snake faunus so can sense things.
Now with that done, any mistakes or advice is appreciated and i hope you enjoy.
(Tammy POV – Just as first bandits reach the gates)
Tammy stood right over the gate, watching the Scorpions charge forward, she felt a wave of sadness knowing she once led some of the those down there 'Forgive me.' she whispered in her head as she closed her eyes and activated her semblance.
Below her, right as the bandits entered through the gate a sandstorm kicked up around them, it had been a plan she'd come with at night and told to Ironclad.
She then heard the gun shots from the barricade as the first rank, then the second rank fired, Tammy just focused on keeping the sandstorm up so those that got through the gate would be disorganised.
Then she felt a figure shoot past her up the wall looking up she saw a shadow flying above her and throw a bag at the barricade.
Tammy heard Maples rifle fire, the round struck the light grey cloaked figure who drew their pistol and flew at Maples position at the tower firing her pistol all the way in keeping Maple supressed.
"Sergeant, keep the men here and keep firing!" Maple ordered as she drew her sword and began running at the tower they had been sleeping in the last few days, as she did, she saw Frenda going into fight Roșu and Fídi was about to engage Jack.
She ran up the stairs, as she reached the top, she saw Maple trying to fight hand to hand with her assailant, her rifle discarded on the floor, likely dropped in the fight, Tammy knew who this person was "Sky!"
The figure stopped "Your fights with me, not her." Maple looked between the two stunned slightly "Maple grab your rifle and leave; your partner needs you."
Maple grabbed her rifle and ran past the stationary figure, Tammy stepped aside to let the girl go past, once the girl was gone, she took a breath.
"Why did you come for me?" Sky asked.
"I missed you." Tammy gasped from her run, when Sky remained silent Tammy decided to speak again. "So, are you going to fight me?" Tammy asked her sword in her hands but not readied.
"Of course, why don't you get this?" Sky shouted, drawing her baton.
"I'm not giving up on you Sky, I never did, I kept trying to find and help you."
"Enough!" Sky shouted as she fired her pistol, the round whizzed past Tammy's head, Sky floated into the air and dived at Tammy, who brought up her sword to block the strike from the baton with a clang of steel.
Just as Sky tried to shoot her pistol Sam divided in hit her arm, making her pistol go sliding away before flying away, Tammy slashed with her sword before shooting her revolver making Sky's aura fizzle and stagger back.
"What the…?" Sky groaned.
"That was Sam, a friend of mine."
"So much for missing me then, if you replaced me."
"He's not a replacement for anyone, especially you Sky."
"Shut up!" Sky roared as she divided forward and swung her baton again, which Tammy blocked, slashing Sky, making her aura fizzle and stagger back. Sam took the opening and dived again and caught Sky's hood, to reveal her white hair, and sky-blue eyes, Sky flinched her eyes adjusting to the light.
"You look better without the hood."
Sky roared in response charging and trying to strike again, Tammy dodged and hit Sky on the back of the leg, being careful not to hit her back, Sky tried again strike but Tammy levelled her sword of her with her arm behind the sword.
Sky growled and broke the locked weapons and backed away "Why are you trying, you abandoned me, left me to be a monster, why would I trust you?"
"Because the alternative is being the monster, you always went to bed telling me how you hoped to be a hero as a kid, I can make that real now, just trust me again."
"You've gone soft." Sky swung her baton, but Tammy stepped back, Sky swung again, Tammy jumped back a little.
"Fight me!"
"I'm not going to fight you."
"Don't you get that I hate you now!"
"I don't believe you; you're just trying to fool yourself because your scared."
"You abandoned me." Sky screamed "I put my faith in you, but the minute you got power, you left me, left the whole damn unit, I wonder how those kids you brought would react to how you left us."
"I didn't leave any of you, I never stopped fighting to get help for you, all of you, it's just the government was to wrapped up in its own things to help anyone, no matter how much noise I made."
"Oh, that makes it ok does it?"
"No, it doesn't, but it's what happened, let me fix this."
Sky dived to the side and grabbed her pistol pointing at Tammy "Answer me Sky, do you really want to be with them, because if you really were happy with them, you wouldn't wear that cloak and hide?"
"It doesn't matter, if I leave them, they will kill me or worse put me one of those cages."
"Not if you come with me."
"You're crazy."
"Only on a good day." Tammy smiled at Sky, Sky gasped and flinched "You still use that?" Sky asked stunned.
"Of course, I've liked it since you first said that line."
"I wish things had been different." Sky whispered, her pistol dropping to her side, looking at the ground, Tammy thought she could see a tear rolling down her face.
Tammy held out her hand "It can be, just follow me one more time, just like we used to we can beat anything together."
Just then the sound of aircraft and rockets fill the air, both looked to see the aircraft swooping over the bandits and release their rockets before banking away.
Then another, aircraft banked over the fort and released its own rockets, two flew off and hit the tower the pair was on, right behind Sky, aura fizzling, Tammy staggered forward as Sky did the same but landing on her knees.
Tammy ran up to Sky as she noticed the part of the tower Sky was on collapsing, just Sky was about to fall Tammy grabbed her hand and pulled her back into a hug, her arms wrapping around her waist.
"Let go!" Sky shouted.
"No!" Tammy shouted "I'm not letting you go again."
"Those Atlas troops will take me away and put me in the mines." Sky screamed trying to separated, but ended up falling backwards with Tammy, who span them around so she landed first and with Sky on top of her.
Sky rolled away slightly getting on her hands and knees looking at Tammy for a second before grabbing her collar and pushing her backwards on to the barricade "Why would you do that, I'm your damn enemy."
"Your never my enemy, my little Sky." Tammy smiled.
Sky's bottom lip trembled before she burst into tears and slammed her head into Tammy's chest "You, stupid, stubborn fool!" she wailed and she hugged Tammy's neck, Tammy responded by rubbing the back of Sky's head with one hand and holding her lower back again before whispering "They won't take you I promise and this time I'll keep it."
Then a scream caught the pairs attention.
(Fídi POV - Just after three leaders went through the breach in the barricade)
Fídi got up on her knees from the blast, as she got on her feet and ringing stopped in her ears, she could hear a machine gun firing, which she guessed was Tomoko's.
As she got to her feet, she heard more bandits heading though the breach, then the sound of one jumping high in the air 'Jack.' She thought to herself 'He must be going for the storehouse.'
Fídi quickly ran for the storehouse knowing she had to leave the students to deal with the other two 'be safe, please.'
Fídi heard Jack land, but she was struggling to follow him with all the background noise going on, then she heard Ironclad call out.
"Oi, I'm your opponent, scum!"
"Ooh how delightful, I like a victim with spirit."
Fídi ran to the pair of voices, she heard the clashing of steel then she heard a shot followed by a cry of pain from Ironclad.
"I'll give you your brave for an Atlassian but your…" Jack was cut off as Fídi swung her chain and pulled it after it had wrapped around his arm, spinning him around and hitting him with her staff.
Jack groaned "Who… oh, your bold, I wonder if I can put you in a gladiator fight."
"I'll take it your Jack." Fídi replied coldly.
"Ooh, might I know how you know my name?"
"Your old commander, Tammy told me about you." Fídi replied spinning her chain next to her.
Fídi could hear Jack growl before screaming "That back stabbing harlot!" he then jumped and tried to dive at her.
Fídi countered by throwing her chain, it wrapped around Jack's ankle, Fídi pulled and he slammed into the ground.
"Argh, you wench!"
"Sticks and stone."
Jack then fired both his crossbow bolts at Fídi, who beat away one and stepped to the side for the other.
"I see Tammy likes to recruit monsters and trick them into thinking they are human."
"What did you say?"
"That blind fold, I know of a story of a little girl who was cast out, apparently she was quite the terror."
Fídi tightened the grip on her staff at the mention of her past "Apparently, she made people feel like stone, even did it to her own baby sister and best friend, that must have been a horrid monster!" Jack shouted as she jumped forward with his claws directed forward.
Fídi swung her staff out and hit jack in the side before she wrapped her chain around his neck and pulled him in close "It was my older sister." Fídi corrected as she kicked Jack back "You call me a monster, yet I never took pleasure in hurting people, I ran not because I was cast out, I ran to keep my family safe, like I'll keep those you kidnapped safe."
"Safe, you can't protect them from me, maybe I should make you fight those people for entertainment without the blindfold, even the kids, see how safe you can keep people then, see if they still see you as a hero or the monster you really are!" Fídi felt her anger boil, the pain and hurt her sister made when her semblance activated and her sister shouting out "Monster!" still haunted her, she bite her lower lip so hard in her anger she felt a trickle of blood coming form her lip "Aw, am I touching a nerve?" Jack mocked.
"Yes and you won't like the result." Fídi growled as she brought her hand up to her face "You think you know my past, my curse, you know nothing, let me show you my curse!" Fídi growled as she pulled down her blindfold.
Jack groaned and made an almost gurgling sound as Fídi wrapped her chain around him and pulled in him forward as she thrust her staff forward, Jack groaned and stumbled backwards, Fídi then kicked him to the ground "I don't normally use this unless I have to as I hate the power, but I'm rather upset right now."
Then heard the sound of three bandits charging from the side, Fídi turned to face them, her semblance made them all stagger to a stop, she ran forward with her staff levelled at hip height in front of her, she caught the front two bandits swords, she lifted her staff up in the air, taking the swords with the staff.
She then twisted and hit one in the head and hit the second in the chest, she threw her chain and caught the ankle of the third and pulled, the bandit landed on her back and was dragged forward, Fídi stood over her "No wait!" the bandit tried to pled, but Fídi jabbed down and knocked out the woman.
Fídi tuned as she heard Jack groaning while trying get on to his knees "Look out!" Fídi heard a girl's voice shout out over the din of battle.
Fídi heard a swooshing noise fly out and hit Jack, who turned and fired at his new assailant, Fídi dived forward to take the shot, as the bolt made contact it exploded, Fídi grunted and staggered back.
"What are you doing, get back in there!" Fídi chastised, as the sound of a pistol going off from the store house could also be heard "Your leaving them defenceless!"
"Leo's holding them off, he needs to pay!" Snow shouted back.
"Leo's injured what is wrong with you and he will pay, but I can't fight him and protect you at the same time, now go back and do your job!" Fídi ordered as she moved between Snow and Jack as the latter fired another two bolts, Fídi parried them both with the second exploding again.
Just then the sound of aircraft filled the air "Looks like that's my queue to leave then." Jack bowed as she jumped into the air.
"Hey!" Fídi shouted as she threw her chain at Jack, but Jack managed to swipe it away this time and fire two more bolts, one landed next to her and exploded again, causing her to stagger to the side.
"Watch out!" Fídi heard a Leo's voice shout out, followed by a soft thud and gurgling noise followed by the scream.
"LEO!" Fídi heard Wynn shriek.
Fídi pulled her blindfold back over her eyes and ran to help, Snow caught him just as he slumped to the floor.
"Easy, Leo easy, look at me you'll be fine." Fídi whispered as she put her hands on the wound, as Leo groaned from the bolt in his stomach.
So Tammy got the result she wanted.
Now two things, first Snow what the heck, Fídi had that easy, why did you leave your post?
Faye and Wynn won't be happy with you.
Second if you heard a gulp during Fídi's fight, that was me, remind me never to get on her bad side.
