Okay, where we left off, the rogue agents have found the two's hideout and tried to kill them but eventually, they were outmatched by Gretchen in her shadow powers. Unfortunately, when they said they can respawn, they respawn, so the rogue agents will come back after them unless the two can get the extraction point ready. So here is the final part of the Origins story.
Now you will know that the story belongs to me and the books, games, and shows belong to their respective owners.
Enjoy.
Part 5: The Final Extraction.
(No One's POV)
As the two reached to Bryant Park, their only extraction point not close to the rogue agents and the Cleaners, they have hid through the wreckage and reached to the helipad spot. The two have found dead bodies laying in the extraction point.
"I wonder what happened here?" said Gretchen.
"I don't know but something tells me some of them have become rogue and they died from one of their teammates. (reference of the Division Multiplayer Dark Zone Trailer.)" said Ferb.
(Gretchen's POV)
I had regrets for shouting at him for being overprotective of me even I am weak but on the inside, I am strong. When Ferb told me about that, I had a chance to prove him that I can protect myself but when I heard something, I found out the hard way.
(No One's POV)
When Gretchen heard something beeping, it exploded causing her to get hurt badly. When Ferb saw what happened, he immediately goes to her and helps her get to safety. Ferb shot the flare sending an extraction chopper coming in 90 seconds. The rogue agents have already found where they are and Ferb is pinned down. Unlucky, he got shot in the shoulder causing him to only use his pistol to keep them away.
(Ferb's POV)
Shoe me! I can't believe they shot me right in the shoulder, I can't use my sniper rifle against them, only my pistol can hold them off.
I struggled to shoot the rogue agents but with their tech and medical grenades, I have no chance against them. I am trapped by the rogue and I am stuck.
(No One's POV)
Luckily for Ferb, the Cleaners were the only ones saving Ferb from the attackers. The Cleaners killed the rogue agents getting Ferb a chance. But they turned the faces against Ferb thinking that he is infected so they attack them.
"Great, now I'm pinned down by Cleaners." said Ferb to himself.
Ferb have found a medical grenade that is being dropped by the rogue agents, he used it to Gretchen to get her stop bleeding.
(Gretchen's POV)
As I finally woke up, my face was completely scratched by the explosion, having a scar on my face, and completely healed by a medical grenade. I knew Ferb threw that grenade at me because when I saw the Cleaners shooting at his pinned-down spot, I formed into my shadow form and bashed through the Cleaners. I slashed their air tanks and pierced them until they spill blood on their mouth. I scared off the last Cleaners and they run away. I turned back my form and grab a medical grenade for Ferb. I helped him get back up and thank him for getting me back into battle.
(Ferb's POV)
I was surprised that the Cleaners were being wiped out from her, she is impressed by her newfound powers and I smiled back that she learned to use it properly. But something went wrong with her, she started looking at me creepily and showed me her death stare. I just realized something was up.
(Gretchen's POV)
I have the strong feeling that his overprotectiveness was just annoying me. I creepily looked at him like a flower! (referring to Flowey from Undertale) I had the advantage to use my claws against him. Knowing that I am going to kill him for what he had done that make me angry. But I suddenly have come to a halt as he kissed me again but it was longer that I expected, I was back to my normal self.
(No One's POV)
Ferb kissed Gretchen for saving his life and Gretchen kissed him too. They were happy that they ever have a couple to be with. Gretchen had forgotten her anger against Ferb and he was glad that she was safe.
The extraction chopper got the two couples and they flew away from the Dark Zone. They were safe at last.
"Ferb, how will our friends will react that we survived the Dark Zone." said Gretchen.
"We will never know Gretch, we will never know." said Ferb.
THE END.
This is the end of the Dark Zone Survivors story of the Origins. Hope you like the little romance and adventure with Gretchen's new powers and the new enemies of the series. This is canon to my story and will be mentioned in future stories.
Hope you have a good day Comrades!
