Chapter 13: This isn't information!
AN: Kind of a short chapter but I had to wrap up the last one.
Favorite(Guest): Who?
"I was informed that the female of your group was a Faunus."
"Yeah sir we defiantly got 'Fuanus' killing machine right here." Biggs slapped Four on the back laughing, no laughed with him.
G-16 paused looking the sniper up and down then turned on his heel and left the way he came "Sir! Where are you going?" Yelled Alpha-One "looks like I'm taking command, Those of Delta team who are armed fall in, those who aren't stay in the back. I don't want any heroics let's get out of here with everyone alive!" The surrounding Headhunters moved with a jump in their step.
"Can you believe that shit Four? For a 'Fuanus' you're a bit of an overkill for your own kind." Joked the racist squad member of Delta.
"…."
(Patch, Somewhere in the woods)
"We are taking a break" Adam ordered the few faunus around him "Take care of your business, don't leave the group." He laid Blake on the ground and rolled up her shirt to see the wound. The medical staff had done a good job with what was handed to them but it wouldn't last if he didn't get to a hospital soon. Blake winced as his cold hands slid over the wound.
He had been forced to escape from his fight with that monster when it became clear after looking his men that he wasn't the only one losing a fight. Their numbers weren't large but they were well trained, Headhunters always found a way to be a thorn in his side. The monster he had fought with was different though, he did not fight like his brethren or any other soldier he had the pleasure of cutting down. His appearance and fighting style could be described as unorthodox.
A twig snapping caught his attention of Adam and a few others. Adam felt a tug on his suit as he was standing up to ascertain what made the sound. "Admm" Blake was having trouble speaking through the pain medication. He enveloped her hand with his giving it a squeeze and let go as an 'I'll be back'.
His hand rested on the handle of wilt while the other pushed apart a bush. The faunus next to him dropped on the ground causing him to spin and cut down his comrades attacker. A branch fell from its place on the tree onto the White Fang soldier who was brushing dirt off herself awkwardly. She cast Adam an embarrassed look before turning back the origin of the noise.
The 'origin' jumped through the weeds armed with sharp pointed weapons that it made use of on the White Fang soldier. Adam was dumbfounded in what he should do as his soldier was on the ground getting pelted by a…doe
The doe's head rolled around in a full circle as if saying 'Biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitch' then returned to kicking the soldier's ass. Done with his bitch ass the doe bounded through the woods carelessly, this particular doe would be forever known as 'gangster doe hoe'.
Blake chuckled weakly at the deer antics as she was getting picked back up by Adam "I ugh…..it just got the drop on me that's all! YEAH, I could kick that deer's ass any day of the week!" The soldier blurted out weak excuses one after another.
"Hw old ar-e you?" Blake inquired after hearing the youth's voice.
"Oh, I'm the baddest eleven year old you ever met!" she brandished proudly, it wasn't really a lie either. Of course there was other stronger than her but how many eleven year olds have you met that have received Para-military training?
"Is that so?"
"YES'M!" The delivered message wasn't receive like she wanted it to be because not very long after she once again tripped over her own feet falling into the ground.
"We call her train wreck." Informed another soldier who was listening to the conversation.
"Because when I'm done with ya you look like you got hit by a train!"
"No, because when she leaves a room it looks like a train went through."
The group of fuanus laughed at the young girl's expense much to her chagrin. She had lost her mask long ago to reveal a brown haired, sharp eyed wolf faunus. She didn't care if they didn't know how badass she was, in due time she would show them the damage her 'fists of furry' could cause.
Adam listened to them banter with only mild interest, satisfied that Blake had found a way to get her mind off the pain. No one was aware of the killer lurking in the shadows always just out of their preferable vision. G-16 grabbed a passing soldier and snapped his neck without a sound.
The sounds of a bullhead approaching the clearing they were in sparked hope in the remaining twelve survivors. The bullhead touched down hard eager to take off fast. Fang soldiers helped their wounded friend in first before boarding themselves.
Adam put Blake down on a row of chairs and covered her with is ruined suits jacket. Surprising everyone Adam stepped off the bullhead unsheathing his blade and holding it to his side. G-16 stepped into the clearing and leaned his gun against a tree. He unsheathed two machetes attached to his lower back while moving to a spot in front of Adam.
The soldiers in the bullhead turned their weapons onto the lone wolf getting in a position to fire before being stopped by Adam. "Leave" was all he said.
"S-ir we ca-"
"Leave"
The soldier gulped and nodded closing the bullhead's doors, No one said anything as they all gazed at the sleeping cat faunus. One of them would have to tell her when she woke up.
Both men stood unmoving as the bullhead flew off leaving them in the clearing. The wind blew the long grass on its side as well as the bottom Headhunters thick tan jacket that wasn't covered in body armor. Bravo-One took the first step and the second gaining speed on each step until he was sprinting at Adam.
Adam wouldn't underestimate the man twice, he stood his ground waiting for the killers next shady tactic. He didn't wait long, the Headhunter after reaching an appropriate speed dug his heals in the ground. With the help of momentum and the wind the dirt and other follicles hit Adam like tear gas.
Bravo-One expected a sloppy slash from the teen but was shocked when his blades kissed Adam's. He fell back on two hands and flipped backwards just as Adam's sword cut through the space his feet were just occupying.
Adam rolled away from the grenade his opponent had left on the ground, the explosion sending fragments piercing the air around him. He grit his teeth slightly as something went through his aura imbedding itself into his shoulder.
The monster gave him no room to breathe or think only single words were passing through him, Fight, Survive. He was slowing being wearied down by the others attack pattern, Slash stab slash retreat repeat.
A hand gripped the one of his that was griping Wilt; he was pushed against a tree with a machete in his shoulder holding him in place. The pitiless mask of metal peered at him with almost animal like curiosity like a cat who had a mouse by the tail and was watching it squirm. Adam would not give him the satisfaction.
A heavy machine gun went off behind them redlining the Headhunters back with bullets, he rolled around the tree to get away but not before substaing multiple injuries. Adam slid down the tree leaving a blood trail.
"Oh my GOD! I killed a Headhunter! No wait, I KILLED A HEADHUNTER NOT EVEN ADAM TAURUS COULD KILL!" The wolf faunus girl from before yelled to nobody in particular.
Adam yanked the machete out of his arm not listening to the girl's victory speech; he could see the blood trail disappear into the thicker part of the woods. He was tempted to give chase but the Headhunter wasn't the only wounded one.
He got a good look at what he hated to call his savior; the gun she was sporting was almost as big as her making it look like something out of a cartoon.
"Just wait until I tell the guys this they aren't going to believe it! Her face dropped at his "They aren't going to believe this….."
Adam examined the weapon that came close to taking his life in his good hand; he performed a technique that he used to remove the blood off his sword with a flip of his wrist. He flipped the blade around so he was holding the blade.
"Yours" He simply said, only one group of people used a blade like this.
She gazed stupidly at the blade then to him then back to the blade. Her hand slowly found the handle; her fingers curling around it. She pulled back to examine her trophy with awe filled eyes. Adam was pulling out his scroll when the girl let out a shriek.
He mentally cursed himself for not retrieving Wilt. The next moment was a real eye opener for Adam, the girl had dropped the machete on the ground where it was sticking straight up handle first. Just like the Headhunter's helmet the blade bared the decorations of a mad man. Hundreds of tally marks were scribbled sloppily on the blade a good portion of them probably his kind yet…he couldn't find it in himself to care.
She hesitantly picked the blade back up to read the words written on the handle "The dead cannot die"
[Patch (twenty four hours later), Delta Team]
"YES! Our boss already gave us the information beforehand."
"Then why can you just tell us?!" Lt yelled at the evasive Kale
"I already told you it's not here are you going senile on me old man?!"
"You're not making any sense!" The rest of the team could only watch helplessly as the two duked it out. Shauno smacked Three's ass while walking by to join his partner, Three turned his bitching on Four when she let out a pfft.
"Why are you teaming up with them? Didn't that guy take the APR's virginity?" At this Four's mood dropped considerably, not only did she not to shoot the gun first but they didn't even have time to look where they had stored it at.
The universe, deciding it was done fucking with Three turned its gaze to Four. The doors of the store they were passing opened with a jingle. Ruby stood with her hand on the door in all her cute glory, her eyes firmly glued to Four.
"How come you ran out one me?!" She had invaded the snipers personal space in a blur of red. Kale and Shauno being the only ones who think they had an idea of what was going on snickered.
"Who's your young friend?" Three had silently moved next to Four with squinted eyes and smile that outshined the sun.
"And they call me a cradle robber." Five said catching on.
Before anyone could make suggestive comments Four grabbed Ruby's hood and dragged a pouting Ruby back into the store.
"They grow up so fast…." Shauno cried into Kales shoulder while the latter drew small circles on his back. "OH, Kale the information is over there!" He said while pointing to an alleyway.
Delta-One made a small gesture to his team when the duo turned their backs on Delta telling them to be ready. Everyone made sure their weapons were in reaching distance as they passed into the dark and damp space.
'Here we are mates" He gestured to a car parked next to a door. Thinking it was a trick some of Delta team's hands found their hidden weapons. Shauno opened the trunk while kale proclaimed proudly "The location of Erwin Rommel!"
"Mmmmthhhmm" The faunus in the trunk tried to yell.
[Patch, Gangsta Doe Hoe]
I watched the back of the girl walking away with hate in my eyes. I finished my cigarette and stomped in in the ground.
'It aint over yet bitch'
