Trigger Assault arc Part 3
The battle starts
We are located in a place somewhat far from the city, where the Trigger production takes place, each Team went to their positions.
- *Team D1 is in position*- Team D1 consisting in Gentle, Sub-Zero and Scorpion were in the left side of the building, behind the wall that separates them from the building. They were waiting for Team D2 to launch their attack so they can put pressure elsewhere and let the infiltration team have a free way to the building.
- *Good, Team Infiltration is in position too*- Team Infiltration consisting in The Crawler, Pop Step and Knuckleduster were in the back side of the building ready for the distraction attacks to commence so they can sneak in the building.
- *Team D2 is also ready*- Team D2 consisting in Headhunter, Kitana and Stain were in the frontal side of the building, they will attack from the front and divert all the attention to them.
- *Good, La Brava, intel please*- Said The Crawler.
- *Yes*- Said La Brava, part of Rearguard team along with Geras and D'vorah, she was in charge of managing communications and hacking the security system from the building. They were at a safe distance from the building but close enough so she can hack into the system - *I was able to hack into their systems, no suspicions from them, I disabled their comms so they can't call the police or reinforcements, I also disabled all the security cameras except the ones pointing at team D1 and D2. * -
- *Wait. Why? * - Asked Scorpion.
- *Easy. If I disable all the cameras they will suspect more, but if I leave yours enabled, they will concentrate only on you, that way they will avoid checking the rest of the cameras and Team Infiltration will have it easier. * - Answered La Brava.
- *I see. Sorry. * -
- *Good work. It looks like everyone is ready. Team D2 begin your attack. * - Ordered The Crawler.
- *Understood*-
- "Well guys, this is it. I guess is too late to quit."- Said Kitana.
- "Yes. It is. Let's go." – Said Headhunter. He then set his arm on fire and shoot a big fire ball against the frontal gate, destroying it in the process.
The three then proceed to prepare their weapons, Kitana sharpened her fans, Headhunter drew his katana and ignited his left arm and Stain drew his own katana and some knifes.
- "Charge!"- Screamed Headhunter.
With a battle cry the trio charged into the front yard, they passed through the door debris and smoke and saw a total of ten robots.
The robots were human shaped, their full body was white and had blue eyes, their structure was thin, and some mechanical parts could be seen through their arms and legs (AN: The robots' appearance are like the robots from the I, robot film.).
The robots turned at their direction, they eyes turned red and charged against the trio.
Kitana stopped in her tracks and threw her fans against the robots, meanwhile Stain and Headhunter keep charging at the robots. When the fans reached the robots, the fans cut in half four of them, with her quirk Kitana controlled her fans and procced to cut into pieces those four robots, then the Fans returned at her hand while she was making a pose (AN: I'll leave the pose at your imagination, just think of one of kitana's poses from the MK games).
Kitana
Quirk: Sharpening tool.
She can add sharpness to any non-living object within a limited size, she can also control those objects mentally. She usually uses it in her fans since those are her primary weapon.
Headhunter and Stain arrived and destroyed the other six, three each.

Inside the building
The alarm started to make noise; someone has entered without permission.
- "Sir, the alarm is on, we detected some movement in the front yard" – The security chief said to his boss.
- "Someone dares to enter in my building, fine pass me the cameras."- The Chief then played the security video in real time on the boss's screen. – "I see, three guys trying to enter my building, they must be here for the Trigger"-
- "Sir. I recognize one of them, It's the Hero Killer, Stain" –
- "So. It is a villain attack, I don't recognize any other, must be low tier villains then. Sen more robots to them. I won't let them take the Trigger. Activate lethal force in the robots, nobody has to know what happens here." –
- "Yes sir!"- The Chief started activating more robots and send them to the front yard.

Front yard
Team D2
- "That was easy. It looks like the robots doesn't have a high resistance"- Said Headhunter.
- "Watch out. At the building entrance. More robots."- Warned Kitana.
Headhunter and Stain turned at the building and they saw a total of twenty more robots marching against them. But before the trio could charge, they heard some sound behind them. They turned at the sound direction and saw the ten robots that they destroyed completely unharmed and ready to charge at them.
- "So, that must be the famous self-repair system of the robots that Crawler was talking about" – Said Headhunter – "So, thirty against three. Let's go!" – The trio started fighting against the robots.

Security guards.
- "Something is off. Why only three? Either they are reckless or overconfident. But considering that Stain is with them I don't think they are. They are planning something."-

Back part of the building,
Team Infiltration.
- *Crawler, La Brava here, I manage to hack into the audio system from the security office. They are starting to suspect. They are thinking that three persons can't do this all by themselves. I suggest that you sent Team D1 to attack now. *-
- "Roger that. Do you hear it? Team D1 begin your attack."-
- *Understood* - Answered Scorpion.

Left side of the building.
Team D1
- "You heard the boss. Let's go. Gentle, prepare the ground." – Ordered Scorpion.
- "On my way." – Said Gentle. He then used his quirk on the ground. This way the trio jumped across the wall and entered in the left yard of the building.
They saw a total of five robots. Quickly Sub-Zero launched a blast of ice while Scorpion shoot some fire at the robots.
Sub-Zero.
Quirk: Cryokinesis.
He can create and manipulate ice at his will except for another quirk generated ice. He also is immune at the cold and can create an ice armor and weapons with his ice and use them.
Scorpion
Quirk: Infernal Pyrokinesis.
He can create and manipulate fire at his will except for another quirk generated fire. He is immune to the fire and heat. He can bathe his weapons with his fire without damaging them. Normally he uses it with his chain which he controls masterfully.

- "Sir. Movement detected at the left side of the building."- Said the chief.
The boss then changes the view at the left building camera and saw Team D1 attacking the robots.
- "I see. The frontal attack is a decoy. They are trying to sneak in with another team. To bad they didn't consider our movement detection system. Send more robots at them. Same instructions. And send more at the front."-
- "Yes sir" – He then activated more robots.
…
…
…
Left Yard
Team D1
The trio saw how the five robots they destroyed repair themselves and stand up again, in addition they saw a total of 30 robots.
- "Well. This is what we signed for. Let's do this." – Said Sub-Zero.
The trio started attacking the robots, Gentle Criminal used his cane too destroy robots, he also uses his quirk to quickly move around the battlefield, Sub-Zero and Scorpion also used it. Scorpion ignited his chain and started destroying robots, thanks to his chain being surrounded by fire he can control it with his quirk. Lastly Sub-Zero created a pair of ice swords and slashed the robots.

Front Yard.
Team D2.
This team was okay, they could handle the thirty robots, the problem was the self-repair system, the robots by themselves were easy but the self-repair system made them annoying.
- "Shit this isn't good. Look, more robots" – Said Kitana while slicing three robots with her fans.
- "I'm starting to hate this" – Said Stain while decapitating one robot – "We destroy one robot but at the same time another finishes its repairs. And now we have 20 more robots coming."-
- "I know but we can't go back now. We need just handle enough time for the rest to complete their tasks."-
…
…
…
Back part of the building.
Team Infiltration.
- *Crawler. La Brava here. It worked; they aren't suspecting anything anymore. You are free to enter the building. I also disabled the movement detector so you can move quietly but free. *-
- "Thanks. Okay team let's go"- Said the Crawler. Then the trio entered the building from a section under renovation. They had to avoid some robots but thanks to the decoy attacks the robots quickly left to defend the front and left yards.
- "We are in. La Brava instructions please."-
- *Yes. According to the lay out of the map I located the central system where you can erase the Trigger formula, also you can try and disable the robots, but I don't recommend that, it's encrypted, I'll try to decrypt the data and disable the robots. * -
- "And the production system?" –
- *I haven't located it yet. Try to erase the formula while I find where the production system is. I'll send the location to your phone. * -
His phone vibrated. He checked and saw the instructions to reach the central system.
- "I have it. Let's go team." –
The trio started following the directions. After a few minutes they opened the door for the room prior the central system and what they saw it shocked them. The room was gigantic, it had hundreds of thousands of robots in it, all of them hanging out of transporting lines.
- "This must be where they save the inactive robots or at least one of the places of the building" – Said Knuckleduster.
- "What are those?"- Said Pop Step, the other two stopped and saw at where she was pointing.
There were three robots, different from the rest, first these ones are big, at least two and a half meters tall, the robots looked like human skeletons made of metal and looked resistant (AN: Think of the T-800 from terminator just without the Schwarzenegger skin).
- "With some luck we won't be facing these ones"- Said Pop Step.
…
…

Front Yard.
Team D2.
The team after some hard fighting looked like they were winning.
- "It looks like they are getting slow in their repairs, also some of the robots aren't standing up again"- Said Kitana.
- "Maybe they have a limit on their repairing."- Said Headhunter. He then turned his communicator on. -" The robots had limited reparations, just keep destroying them and they will eventually stop repairing themselves"-
- *Yes, we notice that too. But thanks for the info. We are almost done. When we finish let's back up Team Infiltration. *- Answered Gentle Criminal.
- "Good plan. See you inside. Headhunter out."- After he finished informing a knife passed close to his face only to destroy one robot that was going to attack him from behind.
- "Hey! Don't let your guard down. Remember your training." – Scolded Stain while throwing, without looking, a knife at his back where a robot was about to attack him.

Security Room
Security guard.
The boss was mad. How are those guys managing to destroy all his robots! They are supposed to be invincible.
"Sir. The left attackers are about to finish all the robots. Should I send more at the area?"- Asked the Chief.
- "No. Send one of the prototypes."- Said the boss.
- "But sir. They aren't ready yet."-
- "Forget the paint work. Send one to the left yard."-
- "Yes sir! Activating Robot Prototype No. 1"-
…

System center room.
Team Infiltration.
- "Done. The formula is erased. La Brava have you located the production center?"-
- *Static*-
- "Hello? Is everything alright?"-
- "Maybe it's because we're deep inside the building, let's get out there and try again."- Suggested Knuckleduster.
- "Yes. Let's do that."-
They exited the room and while passing the robot room one of the big robots landed on its knees (Superhero landing.), its eyes turned red and turned at them.
- "Intruders detected"-
- "F*ck"-
- "Well shit."-
- "We are so dead"-
…

Security Room
Security guard.
- "Sir. The prototype detected some intruders. I'll send you the images from the prototype."-
On the boos' scream appeared what the prototype was seeing, they could see Knuckleduster, Pop Step and The Crawler with scared faces.
- "Intruders. The attacks, both were decoys. They must be searching for the formula. Chief make the prototype kill the intruders."-
- "Sir! The cameras! Besides the frontal and left ones, the rest aren't working."-
- "A hacker. Chief start tracking the signal that is blocking our systems."-
- "Already did sir. The signal comes from a near place. From a caravan to be more exact."-
- "Send other prototype and some robots there. Send also the third prototype at the left yard."-
- "Understood. But what about the front yard? They are about to finish all the robots."-
After a few seconds of silence, the boss sighed - "…Send those two."-
- "Are you sure?"-
- "I'm afraid that we don't have any other choice. Do it."-
- "Roger that sir. Sending the prototypes."-
…

Safe Zone.
Team Rearguard.
- "Oh no! Geras, D'vorah, prepare yourselves. They found us!"-
Geras and D'vorah stopped the game of poker that they were playing.
- "How much we have."- Asked Geras.
- "Minutes."-
- "Roger that. Let's go D'vorah."-
- "Finally, my hive is eager for some action"-
- "LA Brava here. Crawler, do you hear me?"-
- *Barely. What's happening? A big robot is chasing us and the other two were activated and they just left the place. Do you have the location of the production center? *
- "No. I can´t find it. But we have problems. They found us. I'll keep trying but you have to search for the Production center too."-
- *Understood. Crawler out. *-
- "Geras, D'vorah. How's the situation?"-
- "They are here. Don't worry we'll protect you."- Said D'vorah.
In front of the duo were about 30 robots and the prototype.
- "D'vorah take care of the little ones, I'll try to stop the big one." –
- "Okay."-
Geras turned his fist into a sand mace and hit the Prototype but to his surprise it didn't do much. The prototype hit him and throw at the ground.
Geras.
Quirk: Sand Control.
He can control any type of sand; he can also turn his body into sand and control it.
D'vorah start flying and opened her stomach from which a horde of wasps charged at the robots destroying them from the insides, she also destroyed other robots with some kicks and punches.
D'vorah.
Quirk: Wasp Hive.
Her body is essentially a wasp hive, she can control telepathically all the wasp that live inside her, her quirk also makes her genderless since she is a hive, but she identifies herself as a female. She also can fly since she has wasp wing in her back.
Geras was holding himself against the prototype while his hits aren't doing much, thanks to his quirk he can turn his body into sand and avoid getting hurt. He created a wall of sand and slammed the prototype against it then he punched its face, but it didn't do much besides cracking a little the robot's right eye.
- "This is gonna be hard"-
…

Left Yard
Team D1
Team D1 finished the robots they were facing. They were about to enter the building.
- "That was easy. Let's go. You heard what La Brava said. Team Infiltration needs help."- Said Sub-Zero.
Before they could enter a prototype robot landed in front of them.
- "Enemies detected. Terminate."-
- "Oh great."- Said Scorpion.
The robot threw a punch at them which they avoided but when the punch hit the ground it made a slight big hole in the floor. The robot quickly attacked Sub-Zero but before he could land a hit on him Gentle managed to use his quirk in the air between Sub-Zero and the robot and created a barrier. The punch was so hard that broke that barrier.
- "He is strong. Really strong. No one has broken my barriers before."- Said Gentle with a shocked expression in his face.
- "Snap out. Sub-Zero let's go!"- Screamed Scorpion. Both friends did a combined attack of fire and ice shooting some blast at the prototype, but it didn't stop it.
- "We are so f*cked up"- Said Gentle with some sarcasm.

Inside the building.
Team Infiltration.
The trio was hiding from the prototype, said robot was strong it was able to resist knuckleduster punches and Pop Step kicks, the only thing that handle some damages are Crawler's energy blasts.
The Crawler.
Quirk: Slide and Glide.
His quirk allows him to slide over plain surfaces by emitting a repelling force from his hands and feet, allowing him to glide just from said surfaces. He can move in any direction, including backwards.
He also can produce repulsions through his palms, shoot energy blasts and create personal forcefields.
Pop Step
Quirk: Leap.
Her Quirk allows her to leap very high. She requires a solid surface to jump from and the strength of her Quirk is decreased if she leaps from a non-solid surface, such as muddy ground. Her Quirk can cushion her landing after she leaps, but it won't cushion a normal fall.
- "What do we do now? This thing is unstoppable." - Half screamed half whispered Pop Step.
- "I don't know. We must find the production system. We lost communication with La Brava so we can't wait for her to find the location."- Answered The Crawler.
- "Maybe we can try and search it in the central system, I'll distract that thing, you two go and search for it."- Said Knuckleduster.
- "What? Are you sure? That thing is really strong." – Asked a worried Pop Step.
- "There's no other choice."- Said Knuckleduster. – "Hey can face! Are you looking for me!"- Screamed at the Prototype.
The prototype turned at him and then charged a punch. Knuckleduster managed to stop the punch with both of his hands, he then tackled the prototype to another room.
- "Go! Find the objective. Complete the mission. GO!"- Said Knuckleduster while resisting the hits from the Prototype.
- "Come on we have to go."- Said The Crawler, he then grabbed Pop Step hand and dragged her in direction to the system center.
…
…
…
(Not so) Safe Zone.
Team Rearguard.
Geras and the prototype were fighting and punching each other, Geras was getting tired because he was overusing his quirk. He managed to land some solid hits at the robot, but that wasn't enough, the robot keeps resisting the attacks. The robot grabbed Geras in the neck and slammed him into the ground and before he could punch him in the face D'vorah clung to the robot's neck from behind and started to hit the robot's head. The robot didn't flinch, then he grabbed her and threw her away, D'vorah crashed in the side of the caravan.
Geras turned on his communicator and asked for help. – "This is Geras, we need help. Is someone there?"-
…
…

Front Yard
Team D2.
The team D2 finished destroying all the robots that they were facing, and they just suffer some bruises and minor injuries.
- "We are done. Now let's help the rest."-
– *This is Geras, we need help. Is someone there? * -
After hearing this Kitana got worried for her friend.
- "This is Headhunter we hear you. What do you need."-
- *Hello? Hello? * -
- "Shit. Looks like the comms are jammed." – Said Headhunter, he then saw Kitana's expression and asked her – "Do you want to go?"-
- "Yeah. But you will need help."- Said Kitana. Headhunter grabbed her by the shoulder.
- "I understand. But they are your friends, and they need help. Like the Crawler said, if we lose that team, we lose all the intel. Go."-
- "Thank you."- After saying this she went to help team Rearguard.
- "It seems like now it's just the two of us, huh?"- Said Headhunter.
- "Now what?"- Answered Stain.
- "Come on. Team Infiltration needs help."- Both went to the door, Headhunter was about to open the door but suddenly the door was knocked down, he barely managed to avoid the door.
- "Are you okay" – Asked Stain meanwhile standing beside Headhunter and preparing to fight.
From the, now destroyed, door came out two persons, they were two adults which looked familiar to Headhunter.
- "No. That's impossible. How are you two here?" – Said Headhunter with a bit of fear in his voice.
- "Do you know them?" -Asked Stain.
- "Yes, and I wish I would never see them again."-
Both adults revealed themselves, they had burn marks on their bodies, that was the last thing that Headhunter needed to confirm his suspicions.
- "They are… The Riverdale"
To be continued.
