Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Southern Hospitality. Enjoy the 2300-word chapter. I do not own Red vs Blue; Rooster Teeth and a few others do.
The next door was breached in a hail of fire and explosions… Both soldiers at the entranceway were knocked to the ground before South stepped into the room, executing both with simple headshots.
It made Tenn remember she was still a soldier and one of the most ruthless ones, to begin with.
To be fair? As a soldier? It was clear beyond all shadow of a doubt that Tenn knew the costs of being a freelancer.
"Any other soldiers we missed?" Tenn asked as he sighed and looked around, weapon deftly almost afraid to realize if there were more soldiers he and South had not killed.
To be fair? There were a lot more soldiers left for them to fight; a fact not lost on Tenn as he realized they were due to fight more soldiers for now… It was only going to get harder than before.
"You know the bigger the fight, the more we have left to lose, right? There are too many of these guys to reasonably take out without crippling the ship… Which we were meant to do." Tenn stated as he sighed to himself and then shook his head.
They had a LOT more left to deal with.
"We must find the relic first… There is still the reward to get." South stated as Tenn sighed and looked to the side.
It was worth a bit of odd contemplation before he sighed and shook his head… He did know what was going on now despite his best efforts.
"We crash the ship, either way, Tenn… Those were the others… All we got to do is make sure the ship explodes and we win." South hummed and then sighed as she thought of the next move.
It was clear they were at an impasse. The rest of the soldiers here? They were all too easily occupied when it was all over.
"Are you ok?" South asked to which Tenn hummed and then looked to the side.
Tenn was silent but it was something amusing to South that both had such an idea like this… Both oozed the idea of being something different.
Tenn tossed his shotgun away, knowing what was going on now and for good reason… It was going to get harder to win he had to ensure their leadership had to relax.
South looked over at him as he shook his head… Both times? Both were aware of the fact these plans would become harder to deal with for now.
They had a LOT to do, a LOT more than before now… It was going to be odd as he cracked his fingers. Tenn moved to turn off the power at the end.
There appeared a few seconds of amusement on their faces. A few seconds of worthy happiness as both thought of it all differently.
"You know the rest of the backup here is going to show up soon, right? They have PLENTY of back-ups to try and kill us with." Tenn stated before he sighed and picked up a BR from one of the bodies before starting to look for ammo for the weapon.
It was curious as of now. They knew what the mission was, they knew exactly what to expect when it came down to it… They all knew what was going on… They knew now and for a good reason… Something about it all had confused him.
To be fair? South was insane or at least seemed as such. She walked over the corpses of the soldiers in their way as if they were toys. She strode towards the console, stopping only to check each body to ensure it was dead.
Something about it all had made him curious about what drove her to be so damn cold. South of all soldiers was an enigma to him and that honestly bothered him more than it should have.
Though? Given the fact, that they had been too disturbed and then thought of what was going on at the end of it now.
Something about it all had been too much for now… They had more and more to deal with anyway and it was not as if they had anything else to understand.
"Other teams? All of you good?" Tenn asked before he paused and then looked to the side. "We are running into heavy resistance… More soldiers here than the reports stated." Tenn stated, pausing to look over towards her.
It was clear that such a thing had become more and more odd for him. South turned to look at him, thinking for a moment of peace, a curious little piece of chaos when it comes down to it.
She had been too disturbed at the end of it… And he was curious as to how it would have been something that needed to be over it.
He sighed and then clicked his fingers, looking to the side… Something about it all had been too much, far too much.
"We're being shot at by plenty of them… Trust me…" South heard as she snorted.
There appeared a few seconds of peace when it came next… Now? Now it was obvious they were going to war sooner or later… They had plenty of fight left in them either way.
Something had to break, something would have broken long ago if they were allowed to let it ride.
To be fair? There was NOTHING he would have wished for… Nothing he wanted to be dealt with for now.
They had to deal with it for now… The rest of the destruction was coming sooner or later.
South hummed and then looked to the side; an idea had to be dealt with for now… Now? They had a lot more to crack their fingers over when it was said and done.
South looked at Tenn before she looked to the side… Something about it all had been too much done for now… It was too much for now… A lot more than before… They had a lot more left on the line when all of it was over.
South started to sigh and then thought of what was occurring now and it had been too much for now… South knew that Tenn was curious as she paused to think of it all.
An idea like this had been too much for now… South knew that more rebels would overwhelm them both and destroying the ship was a problem when it had been said and done…. They would have not once backed down with a prize like this at stake.
South seemed to be dealt with for now as he paused to think of what was growing on his mind as he wished to think of what was going on.
She looked over at Tenn before he sighed to himself and then relaxed once more. He closed his eyes and banished his thoughts of retreating.
"York? How many rebels are coming towards this level? We need to get going… Things are not going too well." South heard from Tenn as he cursed and shook his head.
"Half and half… There is a lot more to try and fight off." Tenn heard before he sighed to look to the side. "What is going on with you for now?" Tenn stated before he sighed to himself.
He had been too distracted to notice South look towards the door at the time.
"Tenn? We need to move, there are going to be more of them coming soon." South stated to which Tenn hummed.
"Then we need to get better weapons soon… Is there an armory here?" South heard from Tenn as he cursed, too unwilling to submit for now.
South seemed to be dealt with as she looked to the side… She had been too much now.
Tenn hummed and then closed his eyes, the soldier who had been too exhausted at the end of it all now… He had not once more as it all more and more tiresome at the end.
South hummed and then cracked her neck before she looked downwards. She was too tired and she was too curious at the end of it all now, something about it all had been too distracting for the woman. She was curious, eager to think of what was going to happen to her brother.
South seemed to understand they could not as she seemed to be dealt with as she paused. Tenn was all too much at the end of it all as she wished to destroy it for now.
They had a LOT more soldiers left to fight with, and the soldiers in the path bothered both Tenn and South… Her brother had it easy when it came down to it.
She had not yet been disturbed to some degree once more as she paused to it as it came.
South had not been too much to deal with for now and it had been too much to distract them for now, this idea of competition when it came down to it as he paused to try and distract it for now.
South felt herself sigh and relaxed. She paused with exhaustion as the scans on the ship picked up the idea of more soldiers coming upwards towards them. It was all too much to deal with.
"We need to go. We have more reinforcements coming and we have more soldiers coming soon." South stated to which Tenn hummed.
"Then let's go, we have a lot more to deal with and there is still the AI to get and get out," Tenn stated before looking to the side. "North? Keep most of them down there, we have more soldiers coming, and if we get more soldiers come from the base. We are going to get overwhelmed." Tenn stated before he paused.
Both turned and slowly walked towards the door. She was all too distracted for now, they had a lot more to deal with as she and he slowly left the room, and both swept up their weapons.
They had a lot more to deal with… Something about it all was all too much to distract them.
"We must get going…. Delta? Where are we going?" Tenn asked before South paused to think of what was growing in their brains.
"2 or 3 levels down, the AI lab is right above the power core… Though it is full of security. They know what we are going after." He heard before he sighed.
"Thanks, York… You guys take care of security for now?" Tenn paused to think of the next motive.
Tenn hummed and then sighed as he leaned on the wall, something that they had to deal with for the end of the day.
They were too much to do now, something beyond the pale, beyond the chaos.
And he? He was tired, Tenn had killed so many soldiers he felt adrift among the crew what was growing on his mind.
South had been too chaotic for him, she enjoyed violence and killing, she wanted to fight for now and it was clear that as a warrior Tenn was the one who did not want to kill as much as South did.
Granted? There was a disconnect within them both when it came down to the sheer violence when it was all said and done.
So much left to deal with, for now, an idea to be dealt with for now and it was all too much to deal with it for now as she relaxed once more.
They had a lot more to understand for now as she paused to try and think of it all before it came down to it.
South sighed to herself before she looked to the side, an idea of what was growing on before she paused to it as she paused to let it come crashing down to it all for now.
South knew damn well what was growing for now as he paused to think of what was growing on his mind.
"Attention? We have some intruders aboard… Make sure to make them feel at home." South and Tenn heard as Tenn cursed.
He was too distracted now and looked to the side. There was something that he could scarcely understand for now, it was an idea for now of things to come.
"S***… Security." Tenn muttered before he sighed to himself. "Guys? You heard that?" Tenn asked before he looked to the side.
"We have more work left to deal with…We need to be ready for when it comes down to it." Tenn muttered before he sighed, cursing himself all the damn way.
He would only get in the way for now, he looked to the wall and questioned what awaited them. There would be more soldiers, way more to kill now and it was going to bother him now.
If the rebels would attack them? He knew damn well they would be forced back, they had more left to get through.
"We have more left to deal with before we find the AI. The sooner we get there? Sooner we can all go the hell home." South stated before Tenn hummed.
"You do realize if more of them show up, we are entirely screwed? Right?" Tenn asked before sighing. "We get into a bigger gunfight? We are screwed. They have a damn army." Tenn stated before he sighed to himself as he paused.
