A Guard POV
It started off as standard cloudy night , we were returning back to camp when we ran over an empty soda can now that doesn't sound that important but since no one else are allowed in the processing center at night except for the assign guard and we are the only squad that takes this path.
"Stop." Jerry stop the car immediately.
"Don't tell me another one of those animal got in?"
"Well there no other way for that soda can to get there, clearly they're forgetting who's in charge."
"Dammit why are we always the one that have to deal with this shit? Like why can't they pick someone else night to do this?"
"So your want storage or generator?"
"I'm not walking. I'll take storage." with that I hop out of the car and made my way to the generator. The walk was quiet the only sound that can be heard are the light humming of the processing machine working over night. The generator building was easy to spot it was the closest building to the mountain that had a bunch of warning sign. I knew something was off the moment I reach the door, the lock was cut. I slam the door open and walk in whip in my right and pistol in my left. Once inside I flip the light switch and to my surprise it was still working. One of two thing could have happen a) they have yet to sabotage the power or b) it was done in the last 5 minute and the power has yet to die. The room got nothing in it except for the generator and some cable. Well this is going to be easy someone not even paying attention to their own shadow. I ready my whip and swung it from around the corner striking the animal there a feminine scream. Turning the corner I shot the doe in the left leg with she's kneeling. I kick her in the face and shots her right arm. After pinning her other arm with my foot, I radio Jerry.
"Jerry I found it, over."
"Great, I'm on my way and the storage was clean not a single sign of tampering, over." Then the light cut off at that point. Great I'm in the dark and I can't see a thing. I grab the faunus by her hair and drag her out of the building her protest went unheard. To my surprise Jerry was already out there waiting.
"Hey, here the Doe I caught." I said tossing the girl in the back seat. "Now let's go." The drive back was quiet once we stop the animal sniffing with good old fashion duck tape. At the fence we were inform that the camp had some sort of dog grimm sneak in and attack a tower. There we explain the doe we caught by the power generator. The general was already there and was very mad, probably had something to do with waking up at midnight. He march up to the Jeep and drag the doe out by her feet.
"If you corporate you can continue your work in the mine. What the hell is the purpose of killing the power? It's almost winter for Oum sake." Silence that all there was for the next minute until gunshot rang. "What the hell's going on out there? Over." No more than a minute later we were surrounded by hundreds grim. We lasted 15 seconds. We were pin to the ground then galloping in the distance. A boy came in native clothing.
"Shit, this is not how it was supposed to play out. You better not die on me." A summoning semblance we stood no chances.
Ilia POV
I feel so pathetic and weak. I was so useless. I back out of asking the group for help cause I could not imagine them actually agreeing so I just went back to the Zergling alone. I felt so dumb seeing the Zergling holding a pair of glove in it mouth. Those glove are standard mining glove which make them shockproof. The Zergling then cut off one of its claw/scythe. I was expecting some sort of bleeding but it never came. There was really no time to think because the moment I pick the scythe the Zergling ran to and up the watch tower. The moment the patrolling light stop I understood what it wanted. I ran to the fences the cut was clean and smooth. Finding the generator was easy getting inside was simply with a scythe that can cut through metal. Then I made the biggest mistake of the night when I was cutting the top of the generator I was caught off guard when the door slam open I was in such a panic that I left the scythe up top instead of taking it with me. Then I was so lost in thought that I couldn't even block or defend myself in any way.
Now tho I'm lying on a table waiting. "Now look what we have here a crippled Faunus?" Death said he's a figure of pure black with a grim mask and red eyes. He stick his finger in one of the gunshot wound I hiss in pain. "That's not as bad it look the legs got to go along with the right eye to stop infection. But that's most likely not what Jaune meant." Jaune so I'm not on death table.
"Who are you?"
"So she can speak about time. Let's cut to the chase I can keep you alive as per Jaune request but that requires me to take your legs and left eye. We could do that or you can be apart of an experimental test."
"Test."
"Yes these test could fix you back up and maybe stronger as well."
"My father always said in a deal people are trying to get something so, what are you gaining from this?"
"A test subject and access to your ability to change color. So you want in or not?"
"If I go through this I won't be weak and helpless anymore?"
"Yes, if it worked."
"Ok." He's moving a hand to my neck.
"Good then sleep tight" darkness welcome me back.
