I don't own Arknights or Crysis series, both goes to all of their respective owners. I'm just a fan of both franchise.

We finally got there after several minutes of hiccups, Scout's group awaiting for the lead instructions at the back side of the entrance palace. While me got on the high building scouting the enemies that fucking our friends with my Binoculars visor, and man they don't look so good…
"What's the situation on them?". Scout voice blared on my helmet, while I'm marking all the enemies that are on the ground or in the building
"Too many casualties. I think I know why, there's a several snipers on the buildings, and I saw somehow the enemy just got stabbed to death, then get back up like it was nothing. Are we dealing with zombies here?".
"You're not wrong, it would be Mephisto work, the white haired kid, one of the Reunion ring leaders that got medical arts and can heal someone instantly".
That kid on the back line laughing like a madman?, Sheesh I thought I've seen everything, but this is just worse. I guess he's not right in the head.
TACTICAL OPTIONS AVAILABLE
-We can go clear the snipers with stealth or just go flanking to your enemy, both were good, the former: they never what hit'em while the latter: just shock'em out… Prophet gave me advice.
"I'm going to deal with the snipers, you can go help your friends…".
"I've put a trust in you Alcatraz. Don't do anything stupid, And stay alive". Scout said before ordering his team to go inside while the wounded were hiding.
"Let's just go with stealth...". I answered Prophet
I began cloaked up and proceed to go down to the other building. When i was on the ground, i saw a downed Operator screaming painfully holding his legs a feet away from me, a Reunion grunt holding his machete ready to strike him. I'm not going to let that slide, With that I'm running fast at him after that holding his collar and throwing back away from the wounded Operator, the grunt screamed in surprised and fear of high, Done saving from the Operator's death door, I turn away back on task leaving a confused Operator how the grunt get thrown away by some invisible force.
While inside the building where the sniper nest was, I saw a guy hooded up with a pipe in the stairs, a guard. then while his back turned to me, I broke his neck, then back, continuing to find where the group of the enemy sniper was.
There's like 6 floor, the third one there was 2 of em, I snap his head while stealing the crossbow and shoot up the other quietly, the fourth floor it would be hard, 5 of em bundled up, so I choose the closest one to break his neck and then one of em trying to alert the others, I punch her in the rib then headshot the rest with the speed mode before cloaking again, the fifth floor there's 3 of em, one of em reloading her crossbow, I'm waiting her to be done and then I break her neck and proceed to kill the other…
With that, I'm heading up to the boss…
There's like… a kid using a crossbow, a big one at that too, also using his arts to camouflage his body. Sorry to say, but unfortunately you're up against an alien tech, you can't hide from me, kiddo…
So I don't know whether I should just kill him or not, but I was like fuck it just knock him till lights out…
I'm slowly sneaking up behind him, but it looks like he knows I'm coming for him…
Suddenly he points the crossbow right side of stairs, which I came from on the left. Then shoot it, and the walls explode…
That's one waste ammo kid…
Then I began to decloak behind him "Peek a Boo kid".
"Wha-?!". I grab his weapon and throw it away to the walls, then chopping his neck before he realizes what happened.
He was knocked out. alright…
I begin to tell Scout "All snipers have been eliminated man, you good back there?"
"Yeah, we're good, the others have already begun to evacuate the wounded, the enemy is disorganized, Mephisto caught something is not right with their snipers. I think you should go right here…".
Just like that I ditch the stolen crossbow from my back…
"Come here, let me see the wounds…". Said one of the medics to the beaten Operators, while the others patched up.
Everything is in shambles, No one said the Rescue operation should be easy but they never expected this worse, almost all of the Operators either dead or wounded, while the Doctor try to get bearing of the situation because amnesia, it just disheartened when the Doctor see the face of the young leader cautus.
"I'm sorry we're too late Amiya…". Said Scout with a regretted face.
"It's okay, at least we can live to see another day". Amiya said smile, but deep inside they knew she's sad and dejected.
"So how did you get here? You said you fought a platoon of Sarkaz mercenaries, how did you survive it?". Ask Ace, they know what really he's asking, no one gets alive after fighting them that many.
"…Ah well, we got one friend who gets us out alive… and more like one sided slaughter, actually, also he's the one who takes care of the enemy snipers back in the park". Replied Scout while pointing out at the park.
"Alone?".
"Yeah…".
"…He's still alive right?...".
"You've got no idea what he's really capable of Ace…".
"Yeah, the guy is insane, he has stealth, be able to withstand a bomb, and strong enough to punch a man flying- I'm not lying -and go through behind the building of it…". Said Macron, one of the Scout team members in exasperation.
They don't believe it, of course they don't when you're the only one who saw it…
"…You're not drinking while on a mission, aren't you?...". Said Amiya team members the wounded one while holding the bandaged arms and looking at him in unimpressed.
"No, what he said is true. almost forgot he's also the one who uses the Reunion jammers against them…". Scout defending Macron with calm and serious.
"…What?...".
"That was my first thought too".
Shocked plastered on their faces, they remember being cut off from communication by some jammers, and the next they can use the communications back…
"That would have explained why me and my team pass through them and get to the park back there easily, The other Reunion teams panicked and ignoring us something being cut off from the Mephisto squad…". Nearl the Knight rubbing her chin.
"B-but that's impossible...!". Protested one of the Guard Operators. but Scout just answered him with silence.
All of them were speechless, there was a silence for about a minute until it broke by Amiya "Nevertheless, we must thank the man for helping and saving us…".
"Is this a bad time to introduce myself?".
The said man is appearing from out of nowhere in the middle of the crowd of the wounded and no one noticed, everyone is startled and pulls out a weapon then points at his way while the wounded hurriedly back away from him.
"Who are you?!". Barked Dobermann in surprised and wary.
"Calm down!, he's the man we're talking about!". Yelled Scout trying to defuse the situation. Everyone then relaxed and put the weapon out of his way.
"Geez, how did you get here without anyone noticed anyway?". Said one of the scared medic.
"I told you! It's the Stealth Arts!". Yelled Macron in frustration.
The said man just shrugged and said casually, "Yeah, what he said".
Scout just sighed and rubbed his forehead "Just don't do that again, or you will be getting fired by friendlies".
"Yeah sure, no problem".
Then Amiya moved forward close to Alcatraz and offered him a handshake "My name is Amiya, the leader of The Rhodes Island Pharmaceutical Company. I would like to thank you for saving our Operators back there…". The man takes her hand and shakes it "4th Rec- I mean, just Alcatraz. No problem you guys helping me back there, so I should do the same too… also, you must be a capable leader if you were young enough to take the mantle, kid". Which the young cautus smiled brightly "Thank you…".
Ace then coughs his hand "We're really grateful for you helping us back there, but what are you doing here if you don't mind me asking?, Shouldn't you evacuate from Chernobog?".
"…I don't know, I just woke up by Scout's team in Cryo pod…".
Scout's team then got attention from everyone, which the leader answered "Classified, only my team, Amiya, the Doctor and Dr. Kal'tsit knows about this...".
"…Huh…".
"I'm sorry. But it's sensitive information regarding Alcatraz…". Apologize Amiya to every Operators who just nod in understanding
"Amiya, do you copy?, is everyone safe?". Dr. Kal'tsit voice blared the radio
"Yes doctor, although we have many wounded, and another dead…".
"Good, I want all of you to get to the extraction point quickly. Get to it fast, be safe…".
After saving everyone back at the Park, me and the other walking out of the building and going where the Low Altitude Aircraft lands safely, they really said that long, but I'm just gonna call it a Heli.
But to get there fast we gotta pass an apartment in a square. Not gonna lie, the city is destroyed beyond repair and Chaos are everywhere. It's like the city already cluster bombed when we walk to the LZ. The people running away with some local police to a safe place. Hell, we even saw some teenagers stealing goods from someone house.
But to make it matter worse, we saw a child cried to her death parents by multiple stabbing in the corner of some market. I don't know whether should i get her out of here with the Rhodes Island or not.
But my morality wins in the end.
Then me and Dobermann have an argument whether the kid should go with us or not. She said that we will endangering the kid if she comes with us, Then i answer her back with, I'll protect her myself if you can't, Finally Amiya agree with me to bring the kid with us. The kid was hard to trust to us for the first time... I mean she just saw her own parents getting killed by a group of strangers, So yeah... but in the end she finally come with us to get the fuck outta this hell hole.
I don't care she trust us or not, I just want some innocent kid not to get killed by some mad terrorists.
While in the middle of walking close to the apartments, SECOND gave me some warning. Apparently there's some kind of a Sun behind us… and it's close.
-I don't like this, we should run… Said Prophet worriedly
Not only me, the Doctor stopped too and there's a sound blaring on the phone "Warning: Heat source detected!".
"FUCKING MOVE!". Shouted me while shoving three guys out of the way from a fucking Sun that melted a store behind us and that doesn't just stop there. It goes in front of us hitting the statue. Everyone scurried like a rats hiding in cover, while me watching the map in my visor, there's a multiple boogies behind where the sun was, and holy shit the store just disappeared out of the map.
I called it fucking magic alright.
"This is worse than what the data said!". Ace gritted his teeth while taking a cover.
"T-these arts! Don't tell me-!".
"Talulah…!".
"Secure an evac route now!, Doctor take command of the Operators!". Shouted Doctor Kal'tsit on the channel.
As if it wasn't enough, someone fired a Sun at the apartment in front of us, destroying it, and blocking our fastest route.
"Everyone stay calm!".
Then came out of the disappeared store, an army of terrorists with a hood with a lady in front of them that have a draco horn, noble clothes, and a fire sword walking close to us
"You should have joined us… what have the infected done… what have the innocent done…".
Then I saw the wounded almost being burned alive by the remnant of Second Sun, without a second thought I use the speed mode to carry them the fuck away from it.
"What hope idealists with their empty promises can do?".
I saw Ace carrying the downed Caster Operator to the medic. while Nearl trying to get the sea of fire away from the kid that we saved with her shield, Shit not gonna lie, if I wasn't in the suit I would be cooked, I watch the fire eating away the energy bar very slowly from 75 to 65% while carrying two wounded on my arms.
"This is as far you go… your naivety dreams won't come true…".
Then I watch the fire lady stretch out her arms and point to the Amiya who's on the ground and dazed, gotta go fast man, hang tight kid, help is on the way.
"But I'll tell you how I want things to end…".
Amiya readily trying to defend with her magic while the fire lady readily cracks her big fire voodoo shit to blast the kid to smithereens.
"Annihilation".
Short chapter, next chapter will be long because it's gonna covering between the fights and the end of Chernobog. Need grammar, punctuation spacing fix here and changing a bit there... so it's gonna take a little bit long.
Also for the first reviewer Bastion:
Uh the terrans from the different perspective it would be, The whole government either worried like Laterano or try to get some steal from it like Ursus... I mean who wouldn't, Crysis weapons designed to kill an alien that came from another galaxy who apparently, the Crysis people only fighting a low caste instead the warrior one. the Typhoon is basically a portable miniguns ffs, there's another thing alien gun like X-PAC that the Prophet can use. So if I'm continuing, I'm just gonna tone it down if it needs be...
As for the people... well if you take a look like a geek weapon sankta Exusiai she would be excited of course, but not the others... they would be downright horrified and most of them probably doesn't understand behind the mechanism, except Kal'tsit, she would be surprised but knows how it works... i think, i mean there's Amiya module gonna coming up ahead idk when the update gonna be, and there's a deep connection between Kal and the Doctor place in that module... so yea spoilers.
As for continuing... i don't know, Life sometimes can chill with you but other times remind you how cruel can they be, In 1 year I'm going to graduate from college, So it's gonna be busy, I'm even writing this for fun and on the weekend. I'm even mediocre at English, but if this thing comes 90 or more, maybe I'll consider it, then again i need to learn foreign language for more.
Anyways hope you guys enjoyed it, Have a good day wherever you are.
