Radio Communication and Intercom: "AMAZON"

Warning: this chapter contains a large amount of violence and gore.

"Why did you call this meeting, Ridget?" someone asked.

Currently, Ridget sat inside of a room with a small group of people. Among the people were some older men who wore uniforms similar to Ridget and some others who wore suits similar to Faith, who was also standing nearby.

"You were not informed earlier? Very well, I wanted to discuss a set of Amazons that have recently been discovered. They bear a striking resemblance to the Omega and Alpha Types that were on the Nozama fleet."

This resulted in the people wearing suits to respond with shock and horror.

"The Alpha and Omega Types are back?!"

"That's impossible!"

"What do we do?!"

"Can we not get rid of them immediately?"

Ridget held her hand up, trying to get the people to calm down. When that didn't work, she sighed and raised her voice to talk over the crowd talking.

"If you'll excuse me! But I do have something we can do." She said.

"Oh? You do now?" one of the men in the crowd said, stepping forward. His suit was similar to Faith's, and he had slicked back black hair. "I thought the situation with the Amazons was under Faith's jurisdiction."

"Shou, if you would please wait until the end of this to make comments and try to call my leadership to attention, that would be pleasant." Ridget responded. "Anyways, I believe that these Amazons are not a threat to us."

"Not a threat?! If what the Sigma Type did is any indication we need to kill the Omega and Alpha immediately!" another man said, to which most of the crowd voiced their agreements.

"That is correct, they are indeed dangerous. But I must ask that we be patient. I'm sure the Nozama Extermination Team has everything under control."

"SHIT!" Takai fell onto her back to avoid a claw driving itself into her face. Her attacker, Amazon Omega, pivoted on her heel to punch towards Misaki and Ai, the two also trying to avoid the attack.

"HA!" Amazon Alpha dove towards Shido, driving his knee into his gut and then tossing him aside.

"I'm sure that everything will be fine." Ridget said. She then signaled to someone standing by, who then nodded and turned on a projector. The screen that was projected showed a video of what appeared to be Amazon Alpha attacking the viewers, causing much of the people watching to cry out in shock and either stumble backwards or fall over.

"This is a live feed of the cameras the Nozama Team is using. I suggest that for now we watch them to see what happens should they encounter the Omega and Alpha Types." Ridget suggested.

(Music Start)

The audience didn't give much indication they heard as they simply watched the screen in shock. Faith, however, had a look of happiness and longing upon seeing Amazon Omega in the background.

(YOU!)

Amy…Ledo…I'm sorry for using you, but for now I hope that you two will be okay. Ridget thought.

Theme: Armour Zone By: Taro Kobayashi

(Omae wa dare da?!) Amy and Ledo were back to back while sitting on the ground in a completely blank space, the two of them holding hands. The two were in their regular attire only with their Amazonz Drivers equipped onto their waists.

(Ore no naka no ore) In an instant, the scene changed so the characters switched from Amy and Ledo to Amazon Omega and Ledo, then Amy and Amazon Alpha, and finally Amazon Omega and Amazon Alpha before switching back to Amy and Ledo.

(Kage ni kakureta sono sugata misero!) The two stood up while still holding each others hands.

(Whoa! Souzou no derivation) They suddenly changed back into Amazon Omega and Amazon Alpha and got into ready stances.

(Fureru karada akaku kiri-kizami) The scene changed so that it was suddenly in the base of the Extermination Team.

(Kokoro wa doko da?) It focused on Mamoru, who was eating a hamburger.

(Get out me sagashite mo!) The screen flashed and showed him in his Mole Amazon form briefly before showing his powered up mode before it changed back to Mamoru.

(Whoa! Shinzou ga hotobashiru) All of a sudden, the scene changed once more, showing off the back of The Figure In The Cloak, who turned towards the screen. While he was on screen, the screen constantly flickered between him and Amazon Sigma.

(Dake) Across from Sigma, Amy and Ledo could be seen, the two having tattered clothes and being covered in bruises and cuts. Their Drivers were still equipped onto their waists

(Hey-hey) They flickered back and forth between Omega and Alpha as they reached to their respective Drivers.

(We live in Armour Zone!) They started to run at Sigma as they twisted the handles. In unison, the two shouted "AMAZON!" before energy exploded off of them.

(Kaze wo kire koe wo karashite) Alpha slashed and punched at several Amazons around him. He jumped into the air and cut at the throat of one while he landed, the blood of the Amazon squirting onto him.

(Kemono ga warau kono machi de) Omega roared as she ran through several Amazons while swinging her arms around, the blades easily cutting through the Amazons.

(Kuu ka kurawareru ka no sadame) The Extermination Team could be seen fighting against several Amazons as well with Mamoru in his Amazon form, the Team managing to kill them.

(Oh Yeah!) Alpha and Omega were once again back to back, but at separate ends of a ship and in the rain. The two roared in unison but their roars could not be heard.

(Hora kanashimi no aji wa nodomoto) The two spun around and ran at each other.

(Tsumedatenagara kieru nasty) Omega flickered back and forth between her Amazon form, her Imperfect form, and Amy.

(Ikiru tame ni nani wo kurau) Alpha flickered back and forth between his Amazon form and Ledo.

(All Race uragire) The two quickly approached each other, repeatedly flickering back and forth between their human forms and their Amazon forms.

(HOW DO WE SURVIVE?!) Finally, the charging characters reached each other, slashing with the blades on their arms. However, they repeatedly flickered back and forth still; while the Amazons slashed, when it flickered back to their human forms, instead of attacking, the two ran into each others embrace.

Bellows finished wrapping the cloth over the wound on her shoulder. Jin on the other hand pouted as he looked down at the bottom of his coat, the edge of it having been ripped off to be used as a makeshift bandage. After a bit, she looked over the edge of the tower, trying to see the fighting and managing to see some of it.

"We need to get down there." She said.

"And do what exactly? They're covering the only way for us out of here." Jin pointed out from behind her.

"You want to escape?" Bellows turned to him.

"What else can we do? I can't fight without my Driver and you can't fight against them period. All we can do is wait until it's all clear."

"And how are we supposed to know that it's safe?" Bellows crossed her arms.

Jin opened his mouth to speak but paused. He tried to respond but found himself without a way to answer.

"…well shit, you've got me there." He laughed. "But you have to admit that going down there to help isn't the best idea for either of us."

"So we're just going to sit here and do nothing? Is that what you're saying?"

"You're a human with no weapon and I'm an Amazon who can at best change his arms and his legs into weapons without losing control. Of course that's what I'm saying." Jin put his hands in his pockets.

Bellows and Jin stared at each other for a few seconds, Bellows looking angry while Jin looked indifferent.

"You're going down anyways, aren't you?" Jin said after a few seconds.

Bellows answered by heading for the stairs and starting to go down them. Jin groaned loudly as he looked upwards. "God-FUCKING-dammit!" he swore then went after her.

Amazon Omega harshly kicked at Takai to knock her to the ground before she spun around and sliced Misaki's shotgun in half.

"Hey! This thing isn't che-OOF!" Misaki was then punched across the cheek, the sharp claws of the fist digging into his skin and splattering blood across the ground. After that, Omega turned in place to find that Amazon Alpha was trying to incapacitate Ai and Shido without doing too much harm.

Effortlessly, he dodged out of the way of their attacks and then slammed his fist into Ai's stomach.

He turned to go after Shido next when Omega suddenly jumped over him to try and axe kick Shido.

Shido tried to dodge but was caught across his arm by the blades on Omega's legs, creating a large gash that started to bleed heavily.

Omega landed and reared her arm back to attack Shido while he was down, but before she could, Alpha grabbed said arm and stopped her from attacking.

"Amy, stop!" he ordered.

Omega turned to look at him in surprise.

BANG!

Then a bullet struck her in the shoulder, catching her by surprise and knocking her off balance. Alpha was quick to move towards her and catch her before she fell to the ground.

"About fucking time, Fuku!" Misaki shouted towards where he thought the gunshot came from.

"Ow…" Omega grabbed at where the bullet hit her to find that she was bleeding a small bit.

"Ledo! Amy!" Bellows called from the staircase, grabbing their attention. Both she and Jin were coming down the staircase.

BANG!

This time, Alpha was hit, only the bullet struck him across the head.

"LEDO!" This time, Omega caught Alpha as he fell off of his feet. There was a gash across his forehead where the bullet had hit him but was deflected off the helmet-like head he had. Amazon blood came out of the gash.

"Oh shit!" Jin looked towards the two as Bellows reached the bottom of the staircase and dashed towards Shido, picking up his forgotten gun.

BANG!

Another shot happened, striking Omega in her other shoulder, the Amazon crying out in pain.

Bellows aimed the gun at where she thought the sniper was and pulled the trigger repeatedly, unloading the ammo.

"RUN!" she ordered.

Omega took this chance to drag the dazed Alpha off hurriedly.

"Nice job!" Jin gave her a thumbs up as he ran past. Bellows kept firing until the gun clicked to show it was out of ammunition. She then tossed the gun away and backed away in the direction of the others, only stopping to pick up Ai's gun.

"What the hell is that woman doing?" one of the men behind Ridget shouted, pointing at Bellows's retreating figure.

"Yeah! I've seen her before! That's a woman from Gargantia! Why is she helping the Amazons?!" one of the Nozama men called.

"Bellows appears to be attempting to help her friends. Are you unable to realize that yourself?" Ridget turned to glare at the men out of the corner of her eye.

"You cannot excuse this behavior! If she's helping the Amazons she needs to be punished!"

"…very well." Ridget fixed her glasses. "Perhaps it would be best if we brought her here to explain herself."

The group was taken by surprise at her sudden willingness, nodding along and murmuring their agreements.

Faith narrowed her eyes as Ridget looked back towards the screen.

Amy carried Ledo into the warehouse, gently setting him down against the wall as Bellows and Jin entered after them, Bellows carefully looking to make sure no one was following them before she closed the door.

Jin moved towards Ledo and checked his pulse.

"…well, he's certainly still alive." Jin tilted Ledo's head upwards and checked over where the bullet hit. "…oh, he's fine. It looks like it just grazed him. It'll heal right up with some time and some food."

"You're not going to check up on him?" Amy asked.

"I did. He's fine."

"Is that really all you're going to do? Can't you bandage him or something?" Bellows asked.

"…can't you?" Jin pointed out. "Just because I know a lot about this doesn't mean I have to do EVERYTHING related to the Amazons. I need a break now and then." Jin walked over to a box and set the chickens cage down before sitting on said box.

Bellows groaned. "Fine. I know where the first aid kits are. I'll be right back." She said. She left the room, walking through the area for a bit before she came across another warehouse and entered that one. After this, she walked up to a box attached to the wall and opened it, pulling out several bandages and a bottle from it.

But then she turned around and was surprised by a man standing there.

"AH!" she almost aimed her gun at him and pulled the trigger but stopped when she noticed who it was.

"Fucking hell, Pinion." She groaned. "Why did you sneak up on me?"

"I was just trying to surprise you as a joke! Why do you have a gun?!" Pinion gestured to the gun. "And what happened to your shoulder?" he gestured to her wounded shoulder.

"Look, it's not important, okay. I need to go help Ledo with-"

"Wait, what's wrong with Ledo?" Pinion caught.

"Uh…nothing." Bellows backtracked.

"Bellows, what's going on?" Pinion demanded.

"Nothing, Pinion. There's just some stuff going on that I need to help them with."

"Help them? With a gun and medical supplies? Bellows are you sure that you can even help them if that's what you're planning to bring? I'm not sure it's that serious."

"Pinion, you don't really understand the situation. Just trust me on this, okay?" Bellows pleaded as she started to walk away.

"Hey, you're not getting away that easily! You can't just drop the conversation like that!" Pinion followed after her.

"Pinion, it's fine. Just drop it and get back to work." Bellows tried.

"I can't just drop it like that when you're trying to get to helping Ledo and carrying around a shotgun nonchalantly!" Pinion shouted.

Bellows turned to Pinion. "It's been a long day."

"That's all you're going to say? It's-"

Pinion was interrupted by the door to the warehouse opening, Jin glaring at them.

"Hey! Shut the fuck up!"

Back in the Nozama Extermination Team's base, the Team was currently resting and trying to heal after hurting themselves.

Fuku hissed in pain as Takeru wrapped the bandage around the bullet wound on his arm.

"Hard to believe that she got you." Takeru remarked. "What happened to being in a safe place?"

"Give him a break, Takeru." Misaki spoke up. "It's not like we knew that that lady was going to get lucky with her shooting."

"Who was she anyways?" Takai cleaned her blade angrily.

"She looked like a friend of Ledo and Amy's." Mamoru spoke up. "It seemed like she really cared about them too."

"That part doesn't matter, Mamoru." Shido pointed out.

"So what now?" Ai interrupted. "That girl…Amy, right? Well, her Amazon form looks like Haruka's."

The group fell silent at this reminder.

It didn't last long as Shido spoke up again. "Even if she does, she's not Haruka. And spaceman isn't Jin. All that they happen to be are our targets, and we have a mission to complete"

And with that, the subject was dropped.

However, Ai turned to Ryusuke and opened her mouth to speak. "Hey, Ryusuke. I think we should talk about-"

Ryusuke clamped his hand over her mouth and pulled her out of the room.

"Are you crazy?" he hissed at her as soon as they were clear of the area. "You can't just start talking about that in front of them!"

Ai pulled Ryusuke's hand away from her mouth. "We still need to talk about it! That thing around your arm is an Amazonz Register, right?"

Ryusuke grit his teeth and glared at her for a second before he reached up to his top and undid the front. He slid his top off enough to show the silver Amazons Register wrapped around his left arm.

"Ryusuke…" Ai reached out to touch the Register but Ryusuke jerked his arm away before she could.

"Yes, Ai. I'm an Amazon." Ryusuke said, fixing his top.

"Why didn't you tell us before?"

"We hunt Amazons for a living. And most of the time you guys don't even treat Mamoru like he's our ally, instead like he's the team pet."

"So you're content with hunting down your own kind?" Ai started to say when Ryusuke wrapped his fingers around her throat and pressed her up against the wall.

"Don't you dare turn this on me." He hissed. "We're nothing but monsters. The world would be better off with us all dead."

"Ryusuke, let me go-" Ai choked.

"Jin Takayama is right. All of us need to die. But I'm not going to die until I've made sure I'm the last one left and that there are no more coming. I've made it my mission to kill every single Amazon. I don't care if I have to hide myself in this team to do it. Just stay out of my way. And if you tell anyone about my secret, then it looks like I'll have to feed on a human for the first time." He growled.

"Ryu…suke…" Ai was turning purple as she tried to get him to loosen his grip.

He glared at her for a few more seconds before he finally released her neck, resulting in her crumpling to the ground and coughing as she finally managed to get oxygen into her lungs.

Ryusuke didn't give her a second look as he closed his top and then walked off. Ai watched as he left, her eyes filled with fear and shock.

Pinion stared at Jin. Off to the side, Ledo and Amy were being cared for by Bellows, who had already cleaned and bandaged the wound on her shoulder.

"Is…is that it?" Pinion asked.

"I mean, what else do you want?" Jin shrugged.

"Nothing. That's just a lot to take in. I want to make sure that's it." Pinion clarified. "So you two are these Amazon things now?" Pinion pointed at Amy and Ledo, who both nodded. "Okay. And you were the previous Alpha before Ledo?" he then pointed to Jin.

"Jin Takayama, pleasure." Jin held his hand out to Pinion, but retracted it after Pinion didn't shake the hand.

"I get everything else…but how and why are you connected in this?" Pinion turned to Bellows.

"I'm sorry?" Bellows finished bandaging up Ledo.

"He's got a point. I still don't know why YOU'RE here." Jin nodded.

"Ledo and Amy are my friends. I'm here to help them. That's all." Bellows responded.

"Are you kidding me? You're coming with because of blind loyalty?" Jin blinked. "What are you, high?"

"Yeah. This all sounds pretty crazy, Bellows. Maybe you should just stay out of it." Pinion added.

"You're kidding me. I'm not just going to leave Ledo and Amy to just wander around with this lunatic." Bellows crossed her arms. "I don't care how crazy this seems or is, but I'm going to help them."

"Look, are you even sure it's worth being here? What's the point if you can't even do much to help?" Jin asked Bellows.

"Hey, lighten up. Bellows has helped us so far." Amy pointed out.

"Yeah. If it wasn't for her the Extermination Team most likely would have killed me after my first transformation into my Amazon form." Ledo said.

"She was also immediately captured by Takai to be used as leverage and doesn't appear to be much more than eye-candy." Jin eyed Bellows. "…really good-looking eye-candy, but that's beside the point. The point is that if you can't really do much, you should probably just leave and forget you ever were involved with us. You too." Jin mentioned to Pinion.

"You heard the man, let's go Bellows." Pinion started to get up to leave but was stopped by Bellows.

"Hang on. Why do you care so much over whether or not I can do much to help? For all you know I can help with whatever you need." She angrily growled.

"Oh really? So Sigma's going to be quaking in his boots whenever he sees you coming up with bandages and a shotgun?" Jin remarked.

"Sigma?" Bellows asked.

"What's Sigma?" Amy turned to Ledo.

"…oh. I forgot to explain to everyone else." Jin sheepishly looked at Ledo. "Whoops."

Ledo sighed. "The way Jin described him to me, Sigma is an Amazon like me and Amy. He's apparently really dangerous, but Jin hasn't said much else about him."

"And you'll learn more when I tell you. Just not now. Let me just put it this way. Sigma is like the Devil. I think. I'm not really good with religion so this shit is going to just be really confusing."

"Just ignore it and move on." Bellows ordered. Pinion gave her a look as if she was crazy.

"Fine. I guess I can explain, but just so you know what you're getting into and why you should just leave." Jin gave a resigned sigh. "Sigma is not an Amazon like Amy and Ledo. Well, he technically is, but there's something about it that sets him off from either of them."

The group say in silence for a few seconds until Ledo coughed, signaling him to keep going.

"Oh, you guys wanted to know more. Yeah, no. I really don't want to talk about him anymore. That's all." Jin said.

"…then how exactly are you supposed to be scaring me off?" Bellows questioned with a raised eyebrow.

"…dammit. Fine. Tag along for all I care. Get killed for all I care. Your life and friendships you're risking, not mine." Jin sighed.

Before anyone else could respond, Amy, Ledo, and Jin reacted suddenly to nothing, the three of them tensing up.

"What's wrong?" Bellows asked as Jin walked over to the door.

"It's an Amazon. Come on, let's get it." Jin said.

"We have a new mission." Fuku reported.

The group collectively sighed/groaned.

"Alright. What is it?" Shido rubbed his right temple.

"We're to hunt an awakened Amazon. Rank is A. However, if we see the woman by the name of "Bellows", who is most likely with the Omega and Alpha Types, were to take her in and then bring her to Faith and Ridget." Fuku read off of his tablet.

"Huh?" Misaki raised an eyebrow. "We're supposed to capture someone? Why?"

"It doesn't say why. It just says to do it."

"We've never had to capture someone before. What could this mean?" Takai crossed her arms.

"Forget what it means." Shido said before he stood up from stool at the counter. "Suit up, we're headed out there."

Amy and Ledo walked into the building first, the two having their Drivers equipped and at the ready.

Jin followed behind them calmly with his hands in his pockets while Bellows and a hesitant Pinion came in as well, Bellows having the gun in her hands at the ready.

"So…where exactly is this thing?" Pinion asked.

"It's a butcher's place. They cut up meat and get it out to people. I would believe a hungry Amazon would go for the meat locker if this was the case." Jin theorized. "Though they wouldn't find much human meat to take care their appetite there."

The group walked further into the area and past a counter. However, Amy paused and sniffed the air.

"What's wrong?" Bellows asked.

"It…smells…" Amy started.

"Delicious…" Ledo interrupted.

"Yeah. I smell it too. But this smells like human flesh and blood." Jin pointed further into the building. "Someone's going to town in there."

A few seconds later, a quiet sobbing noise could be heard from further inside of the building.

Amy and Ledo glanced at each other but lead their group further into the building. Eventually, they reached the meat locker and entered it.

There was no meat hanging. Instead, the meat lied across the ground around a man in the center of the room, who was sobbing violently. Though the meat was torn apart and having obviously been eaten by the man, there was a human corpse lying next to the man, which had been torn into and eaten much more than the other eaten bodies.

Blood was splattered across the room and it covered the man in the middle of the room.

"Ah! Are you o-" Bellows was prepared to run towards the man, only for Jin to stop her while shaking his head.

"Don't. He's the Amazon we've been sensing." Jin pointed to the man.

True to what Jin was saying, there was a silver band around the mans arm with the eyes on it being red to symbolize his awakening.

"So…he's one of those Amazon things?" Pinion asked.

"Don't be rude. Three out of the five of us in this team are Amazons." Jin snapped at Pinion. "But yes. He is the Amazon we're looking for."

The man in the middle of the meat locker looked up at them while his body shook from crying.

He stared at Amy and Ledo, the two being unable to do anything but stare back at him.

"…what are you two waiting for?" Jin eventually spoke up. "Go get him."

Amy and Ledo glanced at each other briefly before Amy looked back at the man and gripped the handle on her Driver tighter. She hesitated as they made eye contact.

"I'm sorry." The man sobbed. "I'm sorry. I'm so-rry. I'm sooo-rry. I'm so…I'm so…I'm so…hungry." The man looked past Amy at Bellows, shaking as his expression grew pained.

As the man shook, he scratched at his skin violently.

"NO! PLEASE! HELP ME! I DON'T WANT TO DO THIS!" he fell to the ground and squirmed in place while pleading. His skin erupted in steam that covered him. Odd cracking and squelching noises came from the man as he continued to cry out in pain, which slowly morphed into growls and moans every second.

Jin sighed and scratched at the back of his head while the other four stared in horror.

"Get ready. The only way to stop him is…you know." He said.

The steam eventually died down, revealing the man had changed into an Amazon that resembled a bat.

The Bat Amazon got onto all fours while staring up at the five. One glance at Bellows and Pinion and he roared before jumping at the five.

"Look out!" Pinion was quick to grab Bellows and pull her to the ground. Amy and Ledo ducked down as well while Jin stepped out of the way, leaving the Amazon to fly through the door and into a more open area.

Jin looked at the Amazon as it regained focus then turned to Amy and Ledo. The two looked back up at him but he said nothing as he turned back to the Amazon.

In unison, the two stood up and gave each other a brief glance before they turned the handle on their Drivers, Amy turning hers forward while Ledo pulled his backwards and held it there.

ALPHA!

OMEGA!

"Amazon!" Ledo shouted.

"GRAAAAAH! AMAZON!" Amy screamed as red veins covered her eyes.

Somewhere nearby, Fuku sat on top of a roof with his rifle aimed towards the butchers place.

He glanced over to the side then spoke into his headset. "Takeru's done with the perimeter. Proceed."

"Roger." Shido's voice responded.

As the group entered from the side of the road, another voice came over the headset, this one being female.

"Stop them." Faith ordered.

"I'm sorry?" Fuku asked.

"Tell the team that they are not to intervene yet. They are to watch the Alpha and Omega fight the Amazon instead."

"Are you sure?"

"Would I be talking to you if I wasn't?"

Fuku closed his eyes and sighed then spoke into his headset again. "Shido, new orders from Faith. Don't attack yet. Just watch the fight."

The group stopped as Shido reached to his helmet.

"Fight? What fight?"

He was answered by door of the shop breaking open, Amazon Omega falling through and rolling across the ground with the Bat Amazon on top of her. The group was surprised, but quickly hided in an alleyway.

"What the fuck!? Tell Faith that the next time she needs to order us to do something, give it herself instead of relaying it through you!" Shido ordered.

Amazon Omega lashed out with a kick, knocking the Bat Amazon off of her. As the Amazon rolled across the ground but quickly got to his feet, Amazon Alpha then dashed out of the place and slashed with his arm blades. The attack just barely missed as the Bat Amazon ducked then tackled Alpha.

However, Omega was quick to pull it off of him and help Alpha up.

The two human-turned-Amazons looked towards their opponent before getting into a ready stance, Omega widening her legs while holding her arms out in a way that showed off her arm blades while Alpha simply raised his right arm off to the side with the blades on his arm pointed upwards.

"…not gonna lie, this looks really cool." Misaki said to his team, though this comment was unnoticed by the Amazons.

Omega and Alpha dashed at their enemy. The Bat Amazon flew at Omega and Alpha.

The two punched forward to strike the Bat Amazon in the chest. He took the attack and fell backwards with Omega going after him to strike him across the chest with her right arm blade.

Alpha jumped over Omega and axe kicked the Amazon across his face.

The Bat Amazon blocked the attack with his arm wing and then took the repeated punches that Alpha unleashed onto it. Omega shoved him out of the way and drop kicked the shield. This did nothing.

After a bit, the Bat Amazon extended his wings and jumped backwards before flapping his wings, a gust of wind knocking Omega to the ground. As he dove towards the fallen Amazon, Alpha then stepped in and round-house kicked the attacking beast across the cheek to send him tumbling across the ground.

Alpha extended his hand out for Omega, but she ignored that as she got onto one knee and readied her arms. She jumped at the Bat Amazon as Alpha simply watched.

Omega let out a ferocious growl as she drove her fist downwards.

The Bat Amazon blocked the attack but failed to block the strong kick straight to his face. He was sent flying into a wall and just barely managed to move his head out of the way when Omega's hand drove through the metal of the wall just above his shoulder.

The Bat Amazon kicked the female Amazon off of him and headbutted her. He lashed out with a punch only for her to block with her arm blade driving into the arm that attacked her. Screeching in pain, he backed up and clutched at his now bleeding arm as Omega jumped at him again and drove her fist across his nose.

Hurriedly, he flapped his wings and attempted to fly away.

"GRAH!" Omega squatted down onto the ground but jumped into the air, easily catching up to the Bat Amazon and grabbing onto his leg.

"Amy! Hold on a minute!" Alpha tried to call out as she fell to the ground with the Bat Amazon. He was ignored as Omega landed safely on her own two feet but swung her arm downwards to slam the Amazon onto the ground.

A small bit of blood splattered out from underneath his face and his body let out several disturbing cracking noises upon contact with the ground.

Alpha approached Omega from behind.

"Amy, calm down, y-GUH!" Alpha approached Omega from behind and tried to place his hand on her shoulder. She promptly spun around and buried her fist into his stomach then headbutted him to knock him backwards.

Omega returned to what she was doing, walking over to the broken body of the struggling Amazon. She stepped onto his wings and pulled on his head.

The Bat Amazon let out a loud screech of pain as Omega tugged harder.

Alpha watched in horror as the wings of the Bat Amazon began to rip.

"GHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH!" Omega roared. "HAH!" the wings gave way and ripped apart, the body of the Bat Amazon flying away without them.

The Amazon weakly cried out in pain as he squirmed around on the ground, the parts which were previously connected to his wings bleeding heavily.

"Holy shit." Takai looked away, slightly disgusted.

Shido simply watched with a blank stare.

"Oh my God." Bellows watched in shock from the doorway she was standing at.

Pinion clutched his hands over his mouth and ran off to go vomit.

Jin scratched at the back of his head and sighed.

"Amy…" Alpha gently extended his hand out towards Omega as she wrapped her fingers around the handle on her belt.

She turned it once again, the red eyes lighting up.

VIOLENT PUNISH!

Omega reared her arm back as the blades on her arm suddenly seemed much sharper than before. With another roar, she jumped into the air.

The Bat Amazon got onto his knees and slowly looked upwards as Omega descended.

"Wait, Amy! Stop!" Alpha attempted to shout at her.

Amazon Omega gave no indication she heard or cared as she drove her arm downwards in a chopping motion.

Easily, her arm blades cut through the Amazons skin, dividing the body down the middle until she finally reached the bottom, having cut through the entire body.

Blood spewed out of the cut and showered over Omega as the two halves separated slowly then suddenly collapsed onto the ground. They liquefied not long after and dissolved into pools of goo.

Omega let out small growls that sounded akin to laughter as she rubbed her hands over her face, smearing the blood over herself.

"Amy…Amy…Amy!" Alpha approached her from behind, trying to get her attention. He put his hand on her shoulder and turned her towards him.

Omega continued to growl as if she was laughing for a few more seconds until Alpha threw his arms around her.

Finally, her laughter stopped as her skin liquefied to turn her back into Amy. Amy panted for a few seconds before realization settled across her face.

She pushed back from Alpha and looked at the blood across his front, the blood that she had covered herself in. Shaking, she looked down at her hands, finding the blood dripping from her hands.

Amy fell into a sitting position and then screamed less than five seconds later.

Alpha turned back into Ledo and moved to Amy, quickly hugging her. Amy clutched tightly onto him as she shook, tears forming at the sides of her eyes.

Bellows slowly walked out of the doorway she was waiting in and looked at Amy with a horrified and shocked stare. She was promptly surprised once again as Takai covered her mouth and held her knife over her neck.

Shido and his group came around the corner as Jin and Pinion came out of the doorway.

"Were you guys really there the entire fucking time?" Jin sighed, spotting the Extermination Team. Pinion paled and held his hands up in surrender.

Before Shido could respond, Faith's voice came in from over his headset.

"Take them in."

Insert Theme: Armour Zone By: Taro Kobayashi

(Amazon... Amazon…)

Shido sighed and walked past Jin and Pinion, headed directly towards Amy and Ledo.

(Amazon…Amazon… Amazon…)

Shido walked around the two and looked down at Ledo. Ledo looked up and glared at him seconds before Shido planted the barrel of his gun on Ledo's forehead.

(Amazon!)

"You're coming with us."

Next Hunt: Evolution

(Kaze wo kire koe wo karashite)

…if I can't get them to listen to my demands normally…I might as well try something drastic.

(Kemono ga warau kono machi de)

"You are in no place to make demands, young man." The man with slicked back hair spoke up.

(Kuu ka kurawareru ka no sadame)

"Perhaps we can find use of these two and their abilities as Amazons." Ridget said.

(Oh Yeah!)

"How are you still alive?" Shido growled at Jin.

(Hora kanashimi no aji wa nodomoto)

"You can sense Amazons?" Ledo asked, surprised.

(Tsumedatenagara kieru nasty)

"You wanted to see if they were as strong as Haruka, correct?"

(Ikiru tame ni nani wo kurau)

"Field testing is a good way to make sure they can be."

(All Race uragire)

VIOLENT SLASH!

(HOW DO WE SURVIVE?!)

"I trust the two of you to do what you can"
