While DobermannandNearlare choked with grief, Amiya remains silent in theDoctor's arms. They all knew... that Ace would never return home. With only 10,000 United States Army forces remaining due to deaths caused by Terra's catastrophe and Originium infection mutating them into eldritch Abominations, along with war crimes by Reunion leaders, the Reunion Members plan to invade Earth.
Dobermann: We've broken throughReunion's encirclement!
Nearl: But... they... (Sound of clanking on metal hitting ground)... I... Aaaagh...
She threw her shield.
Dobermann: "Even if that's the case, we can't let her hear this! We mustn't burden her any further. She's already... carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders. ...We can't... let their efforts go to waste! They made the ultimate choice to let us live, so we have to return the favor... by making sure Amiya and the Doctor return safely."
Nearl: "... That's right."
Dobermann: "Now isn't the time to be dejected. As the Radiant Knight, shouldn't you always be our beacon of hope, no matter what happens?"
Nearl: "... (Gears Shuffling)... I'm not sure anymore. But, I will do my part. Regroup! Don't let your guard down! We're almost there!"
Dobermann: "... *sigh*... Those who told me not to worry... None of them ended up coming back. The U.S. Marines and Army have nearly depleted their troops, raising the question: what is our purpose here on Earth?"
Meanwhile in FOB
General Jones: "What on earth happened?"
Paul Alexander Jones: "Sir, we've lost 900,000 Marines and the entire army. The Originium mutations caused this devastation, and the rest were killed by the leader of the Reunion, codenamed She-Dragon. She incinerated everything, our troops included. I also witnessed military equipment being shipped off to who knows where; I believe they are planning an invasion of Earth!"
General Jones: "I understand... Thank you, Sergeant."
Paul Jones: "Thank you, sir..."
He embraced his son, leaving Paul feeling uncertain.
Paul Jones: "Sir? What's the issue?"
General Jones: "I'm just relieved that you're safe, my son. I made a promise to your mother."
Paul Jones: "Don't concern yourself with me, father. I'm sure mother will be pleased..."
General Jones: "Yes, she will definitely be proud..."
meanwhile back to rhodes island.
Dobermann: "Even if that's the case, we can't let her hear this! We mustn't burden her any further. She's already... carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders. [She Continues] ...We can't... let their efforts go to waste! They made the ultimate choice to let us live, so we have to return the favor... by making sure Amiya and the Doctor return safely."
Nearl: "... That's right."
Dobermann: "Now isn't the time to be dejected. As the Radiant Knight, shouldn't you always be our beacon of hope, no matter what happens?"
Nearl: "... [Stands up] ... I'm not sure anymore. But, I will do my part. Regroup! Don't let your guard down! We're almost there!"
Dobermann: "... [sigh] ... Those who told me not to worry... None of them ended up coming back."
Amiya Wakes up.
Amiya: "... Doctor ...? What happened...?"
The Doctor puts Amiya down and she stands up.
Amiya: "Mm, I'm fine. I can walk on my own...
I just... lost consciousness for a little... but I'm okay. [She looks around she sees they're back on Earth again] ...We managed to make it out? What aboutAceand the others along with the marines...?"
Doctor: "..."
Amiya: "I see. It's okay. I'm sure Ace will be fine. Everyone inRhodes Islandis very strong.
We're back on Earth. After we depart from the planet, we'll be... (sniffle) We'll... be... (Sniffle)... [Small tears] Doctor... Can I... Lean on you for a bit... Just... A little... [She leans on the doctor]..."
Talulah: "... What a pain."
Mephisto "... How did that guy... manage to do this... [Stares at burnt corpse of ace] Half of the city was burnt to ashes, the entire plaza became a sea of flames... Steel was melting and reforming... But how was he... able to keep fighting as well as the marines they fought well, Now let's go invade Earth!?
????: "They fought until the bitter end... Impressive."
Talulah: "I'll remember this."
She looks at the portal in the plaza, as Scene pans out as Burnt Remains of the 300 Marines on the ground.
Talulah: "...Rhodes Island and United States Military."
She entires Earth.
scenes turns to black.
Wpays a visit to theDoctorand the rescue party, seeing that the evacuation is about to be completed. Amiyastands resolute when mocked by W's questions and responds with her own answer. She enters FOB without anyone noticing implanting explosives across the military base, while Journalists are talking about reunion invasion of earth. While one of journalists asking about the operators about everything about them.
Time – 1:30 PM \ Weather – Hot \ Visibility – Good
FOB– Operation Squad E0's Location Earth
Doctor Rescue Operation – Final Retreat Phase.
in the tent
Dobermann angerily "Damn it! Why are you asking about my ears!?"
Journalist of New york times smiles "Okay, Okay let's change the topic I heard you used to serve in Bolivia as a soldier?"
Dobermann replied, somewhat irritated, "It's Bolívar, not Bolivia. I'm not a soldier; I'm a former colonel of the Bolívarian Coalition Government. I defected to the True Bolívarians. However, I soon realized that neither faction aimed to improve my homeland and were just as corrupt as the Singas dynasty. After coming to this realization and contracting Oripathy, I chose to join the politically neutral R.I. for treatment. In return, I became a respected instructor within R.I., focusing on training new recruits with a strict emphasis on discipline."
The journalist noted her story and then asked about the True Bolívarians.
New York Times journalist: "Are the True Bolívarians some sort of communist group?"
Dobermann responded, "What? No! They are... terrible for my home..."
New York Times journalist asked "What about the three factions of Bolívar?"
She provided an explanation as he took notes. Afterward, he exited the tent.
Dobermann felt drained from the conversation with the journalists from Earth.
Meanwhile on the other side of the base.
CNN Journalist: "General Jones, I've heard that a terrorist group known as the Reunion plans to invade Earth."
General Jones: "At this point, we cannot confirm or deny their presence, but rest assured, our focus is on protecting the American people."
Fox News Journalist: "Reports suggest that you have lost 900,000 soldiers to Originium mutations, and that U.S. Marines have had to take down their own due to these mutations. Additionally, there are claims that the leader of the Reunion, known as the She-Dragon, burned 300 courageous Marines. Is this accurate?"
The journalists continued to press the General for his response.
General Jones: "Unfortunately, it's true. We have suffered the loss of 900,000 soldiers because of Originium mutations, and 10,300 of our troops chose to end their missions. Furthermore, the She-Dragon will be arrested and charged with crimes against humanity. If you have further questions, please direct them to my longtime colleague, General Andrews."
With that, he exited the stage.
Meanwhile in rhodes islands
Dobbermann: "Damn! I'm so exhausted!? I need to contact our O.P.D!?"
She sees sarkaz on FOB
???: "Did you really think we'd let you just stroll out of Chernobog? And now Earth Base!? Don't you think it's about time for someone to wake you from your daydream?
Dobermann: "Our commmunications have been restored, and I've contact O.P.D. They'll be joining up with us shortly! But, this blasted..."
Nearl: "Watch out, she's holding onto explosives!"
Dobermann: "I still can't get in touch with the recon team! And Where are those Marines"
Amiya: "... Who exactly are you?"
The mysterious attacker detonates an explosive charge. A massive explosion occurred at a military base, causing reporters and journalists to flee as the explosions were caught on camera, prompting the United States Military to respond to the incident.
Meanwhile back to reporters and journalist.
Sound of Explosion.
Report #1: "What the Heck?"
Journalist #2: "Explosions?"
They saw massive explosions everywhere; now everyone is panicking.
Reports are running away as the world sees everything unraveling.
meanwhile back to the rhodes island.
???: "I don't expect you to know who I am... But, I know that person next to you."
Amiya: "IsReunion... going to continue fighting us"
????: "Hey, hey, don't be like that. I have no love for thatshe-dragon,Talulah. I'm not even cut out for this goaltending business. It's a pain to have to rush over here after a long day of work. So for the sake of future cooperation, why don't we exchange some pleasantries first? You may simply call me... W."
She walks as sounds of screaming and explosion
W: "I've waited a long time to see that person next to you."
Amiya: "...Doctor?"
W: "Doctor... I have a few little questions I'd like to ask Doc. Would you be so kind as to give us some... alone time?"
Nearl: "You're wasting your breath."
W: "––Don't be so hasty. I have some information you might be interested in. Actually, we just met somerather slick fellows... Quite skilled, and dressed just like you guys. Though their camouflage might have been enough to fool Ursus and marines yeah they called me Roach, me so I killed them, I saw right through their little trick~
AmiyaCould they be from the recon team? I'm glad... that they're safe... You killed them?
W: "Little bunny, are you their leader?"
Amiya: "?!"
W: "I'm quite curious, what charm do you hold over them... so that they'd give their lives so enthusiastically and unremorsefully for you?"
Amiya: "What... are you saying...?"
W: "You heard me. None of them... will be returning to you. Hey, you... Are you really... worth sacrificing their lives over? Marines died for a country that didn't know or care. They fought for freedom—freedom from what? Huh? From oppression? Calling terrorists freedom fighters? Who am I kidding? I don't give a fuck about their ideologies. I am here to cause so much chaos and destruction—just for the fun of it."
Amiya is shocked
Amiya: "..."
Doctor: "Don't worry about her. The exit's right there!"
W: "?"
She noticed marines are calling for help
W: "I'm not done talking yet. Did I make you mad?"
Amiya: "... You've gone too far."
W: "Good, good... Now that's more like it."
Doctor: "Rhodes Island, prepare for combat!!"
W: "Heheh... Huh?"
Just then the Marines found w, they open fire at her.
Meanwhile back to the marines
Marine #1: "Quickly put out the fire!"
Paul: "What's the update on the culprit? How did they enter our base?"
Marine #1: "We found the dead Marines at the gate. I found that they were stabbed."
Paul: "I see... Have you found the culprit now?"
Amid chaos and confusion, the marines are searching for the culprit, and they found her: a Sarkaz female with a cockroach and mantis-like appearance.
Marine #2: "This is Roach Exterminator Beta 1-1, copy?"
Paul: "This is Alpha Bug Hunter 2-2. Capture her at once! Don't let her out of your sight, copy?"
Marine #2: "Copy that. Roach Exterminator out!"
W: "Shit, those fuckers are quick, but not quick enough..."
She threw flash bang, sound of it. blinded Amiya and damaging her hearing little bit.
Marine #2: "Shit! A flashbang! Fuck, this roach is smart! Fucking shit! I can't see anything."
Marine #3: "Fuck! Where is she?"
Marine #4: "Fuck? I think I see her clearly..."
W stabbed the marine in the chest, and the marines opened fire at her. As she fought the marines, she ran. Then they found her with speed—United States marines.
W: "Damn, those fuckers are annoying!"
Marine #2: "Quickly, open fire at her!"
W stabbed the marine in the chest.
Marine: "What?"
W: "This is my goodbye, boys. I had fun here, but I'm going to leave. See ya—"
She got tackled by the Delta Force.
Somewhere in black site.
Day 1
W: "..."
S.A.C interrogator: "So you're a Sarkaz Mercenary. Who sent you?"
W: "Yes, what of it, dickless fucker?"
SAC: "I see you're doing it the hard way then..."
He was using "enhanced interrogation techniques," a program of systematic torture of detainees by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), and various components of the U.S. Armed Forces at remote sites around the world.
W: "What are you doing?"
SAC interrogator: "I call it Enhanced Interrogation Techniques." Now, how did you get yourself into the forward operating base without anyone noticing? And once you got noticed, you proceeded to take down and kill the two American soldiers?"
She didn't answer him. He took the torture devices, the pliers. He peeled off her nails as she screamed in pain.
W: "AAAAHHH, FUCK YOU FUCKING APES, I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU FOR THIS!!!"
The SAC interrogator said, "Good, we got somewhere. Now, how did you pass security and kill two Marines?"
She spat in his face, and he peeled off her nails one by one until there was nothing left but flesh and bone. After the long torture she endured, he asked the same questions, and every time she responded with racial slurs. He continued torturing her for seven days, throughout the whole week. While on Terra, the dragon became worried about the disappearance of the Sarkaz mercenary and ordered one of her generals and another Sarkaz trucker to find the female Sarkaz mercenary.
Day 2
Waterboarding.
She was nude on the waterboard, immobilized as water pours down on her hooded head, her right foot contorted in pain.
She was naked, her sarkaz body showing Originium Crystals all over her body. They continue, the waterboarding.
W: "Stop it! I'm telling you, hehehe... Go screw yourselves..."
They carried on with their waterboarding on her.
Day 3
Stress Positions.
She was nude and shackled at the wrists to a bar above her head, forced to stand on tiptoe.
hours later
In her suffering, she screams as she employs her tail to retrieve the keys from the guard, and upon noticing her tail, the guards sever it.
W: "WTF my fucking tail..."
She cried out in pain as her tail was cut off.
W: "WTF me, fucking tail..."
Day 4
Short Shackling
She has a hood, shackled in the fetal position and tethered by a chain to a cell bar to constrict her movement.
She felt limited while her tail was growing back, immersed in her thoughts. ("Grant me strength, I require ...")
Day 5
Walling
the prisoner's captor tightly winding a towel around her neck as she smashes the back of her head against the wall over and over again.
She was hitting her as tightly winding a towel, captors hit her head. She laughs, yet they didn't break her. She hit her again, until they stop.
Day 6
Sleep deprivation.The detainees were kept awake by being shackled, forced to stand, or kept in stress positions in an attempt to destroy their capacity for psychological resistance. This was routinely combined with nudity and/or round-the-clock interrogation. Although not overtly violent, extended periods of sleep deprivation can have painful and damaging mental and physical effects.
SAC Interrogator: "How on earth did you manage to enter the military base without security knowing? And afterward, you killed the marines?"
W: "...What? I... "
SAC Interrogator: "I'll ask you once more—how did you get into the military base without security noticing, and then proceed to kill the marines?"
W: "Huh?... I don't... I'm just special..."
SAC Interrogator: "Alright then, Miss W, this is going to be a tough game..."
7 Day.
Standing on broken feet.As an extreme form of sleep deprivation, two detainees, W and Reunion Member, were forced to stand for hours with broken feet.
Solitary confinement.Detainees were regularly confined with no opportunity for social interaction. This was often combined with nudity, sensory deprivation, total darkness or constant light, and shackling.
Stress positions.These positions are designed to cause pain and discomfort for extended periods of time, and were often used in combination with sleep deprivation. Detainees were shackled with their arms over their heads, forced to stay standing, or were placed in cramped confinement, such as coffin-sized boxes.
Rectal feeding and rectal exams.Rectal feeding was used for prisoners who refused food and entails the insertion of a tube containing pureed food into the detainee's anal passage. This was used for behavior control, without medical necessity, despite risks of damage to the colon and rectum, or of food rotting inside the digestive tract.
Nudity.This form of sexual humiliation relies on cultural and religious taboos, and required detainees to be fully or partially naked during interrogations or when shackled. Nudity was also regularly combined with cold temperatures and cold showers.
They continue same question over and over, Weeks of torture. Her mind is broken.
W: "I'll explain; this is my job as a mercenary. Sarkaz can stealthily penetrate the walls of any elevated structures. I've placed additional explosives at not only the military base but also in several major cities, and I possess the knowledge to deactivate those bombs using my skills. That's all I have to say for now..."
SAC Interrogator: "Hmm? That will do. Lock her up again; we need further details."
W: "Wait... No, no, no! Please! I don't want to go back there again!!!"
Meanwhile the Reunion Rescue Team.
Sarkaz trucker: "We're present; I can feel that she has been here."
Crownslayer: "I understand, so this is the secret location, where the Earthling spy's thoughts are located."
Reunion Caster: "I believe he has been here..."
Reunion Crossbowman: "I will act as the sniper with General Faust's assistance."
Faust: "Indeed..." Crownslayer: "Right, we can launch our attack under the cover of darkness."
Later at night
SAC Operator # 3: "So, she's Roach..."
SAC Operator # 2: "No, she's more like Mantis."
SAC Operator # 1: "Can you both be quiet? We're supposed to protect this black site from—"
SAC Operator # 2: "Crap, we're under attack! Warn the—"
Crownslayer: "сука" (suka)
Sarkaz Trucker: "She and the other Reunion member went missing during your botched mission."
Crownslayer: "Заткнись, чертов придурок (Zatknis', chertov pridurok)" (Shut up, you fucking idiot.)
They arrive in the prison cells
Sarkaz: "We're here, in that cell..."
Crownslayer: "I understand..."
she opens the cell
W: "Who are you? Please, no more..."
She couldn't see anything
Crownslayer: "W, it's me, Crownslayer?"
W: "Crown... Slayer..."
They with W and missing reunion member.
They saw, her emaciated body, and then everyone saw her emaciated form the rest vomits their launch while Crownslayer was horrified to see in that form. Her body and her mind broken, yet the she-dragon wanted her to the plans.
Faust: "What?"
he vomits his launchs
Reunion caster: "Oh My Gods..."
she vomits out all of it
Sarkaz Trucker: "I'm sorry W..."
Crownslayer: "Что за хрень случилась с наемником Сарказом! Эти ублюдки заплатят за это!!! (Chto za khren' sluchilas' s nayemnikom Sarkazom! Eti ublyudki zaplatyat za eto!!!)" (What the hell happened to the mercenary Sarkaz! Those bastards will pay for this!!!)
Sarkaz Trucker: "We need to leave..."
Crownslayer: "I understand, we have to take W for medical treatment for their injuries."
Crownslayer: "Talulah requires W to achieve her goals."
