"Finally, a place where we didn't run into any Grimm!" Em said, both hands behind his head as we walked out of the cave, with us nodding as it was relaxing. We stopped once we saw a group of Beowolves waiting for us. "You have got to be kidding me." Em said, with me frowning.
"We're not out of the woods yet." Fal said, looking at his scroll with worry.
"Everything ok?" I asked, looking at him with the others doing the same.
"Ya, lets make this quick!" He said, rushing in, with us following him.
I watched as Fal smacked a Grimm into the air, where I jumped onto his back and after it, where I cut it down. Spinning in the air, I grabbed Jessi as she had followed and tossed her over to pack of three. Landing on the ground, I turned around and slashed at the claws that came at me, with me cutting them off. Seeing the four Grimm look at there hands, I slashed the other way, killing them. Jumping over Em, I kicked a Grimm that had jumped at Fal, who had knocked two away before turning over to the one I kicked and killed it by crushing its skull. Holding my hand out, I caught the last four before they could get closer to us. Lifting them up, I crushed my hand, killing them.
Walking forward, we saw three doors, with us looking at them. "I have a feeling that its going to be the middle door." I said, with them looking at me.
"Why do you say that?" Jessi said, raising an eyebrow at me.
"Think about it, the one on the right has another section that will allow us to jump over to get to the other side of the door." I said, where I then pointed to the left. "This way is most likely a turn around, leaving the middle which goes into another cave, we're following the tracks here, and caves are where they mostly are." I said, with them nodding.
Walking over to the door, I placed my hand on it, where I then gave a push, taking it down. Fal lead the way, with us following after him. We ended up passing some cages that held some Grimm, with me frowning as we passed them. "Someone is capturing Grimm, but why?" Jessi said as she was just as confused as all of us.
"Maybe to mutate them?" Em suggested, with me frowning.
"You may be right, and that would only mean that they are on the Grimm's side." I said, walking further into the building like cave, where we jumped down and were heading outside, when we heard an alarm, with us stopping and looking at the cages. Every one of them opened, with us looking on in fear as we didn't expect them to get released.
The first ones to come after us were the mutated Grimm, but I shocked them once and they exploded seconds later, killing what were close to them. Tossing my saber, I watched as it cut five creepers in half before returning to me, with me stabbing one that had came out of the ground, but I wasn't the only one as Fal also attacked it.
Seeing some of the Beowolves attack, I jumped back as it was really close. Fal on the other hand, wasn't so lucky. His arm, the one holding his weapon, was cut off, with him howling in pain, stopping our fight as we watched them maul him to death, shocking us. "FAL!?" Jessi yelled, Jumping in and cutting everything that moved. I joined in, with Em taking care of the few that were coming after us.
Once we had removed the Grimm, as that was left was a broken man. His throat was ripped open, his face had gashes on it and his stomach was ripped clean open for the world to see his insides. "Fal, I'm sorry." I said, knowing that I could of pushed him away, but didn't expect him to be so tired that he couldn't move. If only I had known, I could of saved him. Gritting my teeth, I grabbed both Em and Jessi with my aura and tossed them out of the death trap. Sucking in a lot of aura, I released it, Screaming to the heavens as I whipped all of them out, leaving nothing left, not even Fal as his body had turned to dust like the rest.
Landing on the ground, I stared as Fal's weapon, where I picked it up and moved along to join the others. Once I reached them, they stared at me, with me shaking my head. Jessi broke down, with me passing Fal's mace to her. She had a thing for him, but Fal's family didn't like fannus, they despised them. Fal was ok with them, but said he wouldn't be caught dating them, which hurt Jessi.
"Second in command goes to you Em." I said, looking at him as he had turned around and continued on. "So be it." I said, pulling out my scroll. "Doctor Oobleck." I said, seeing him appear on screen.
"Yes, what is it, have you found any clues as to who is capturing the Grimm?" He asked, with me shacking my head. Then what news do you bring me? He asked, with me closing my eyes.
"The Leader of team FEDM, Fal Brick, was KIA." I said, and I knw that he didn't take the news well.
"I...See, this will indeed be a hard parent teacher conference." He said, with me looking at him. "How did he go?" He asked, with me looking away.
"Grimm hoard, Beowolves." I said, with him nodding. "Em has taken charge, we are continuing our mission." I said, with him nodding. "We will find the one responsible and bring him down." I said, gritting my teeth. "Team FEDM, signing off." I said, ending the call and continuing on with me picking Jessi up.
"Good job!" I heard Oobleck, with me knowing that Em had called him. "You found a ship, I may need you to get a closer look to see what kind of cargo they're carrying, but, be careful not to be spotted. Who knows what kind of security they have." Oobleck warned, with me continuing on with the remaining members of Team FEDM.
We walked past the cargo as they looked empty. Walking over to an open container, I placed Jessi down, who was still crying. I understood her pain, because I had lost a friend today, and she lost someone she loved. that's when everything started moving, with me catching myself and seeing Em was also in here and the doors were closing.
I pulled my saber out and was ready to cut our way out, but Em stopped me. "This will take us where ever they are, this is a good thing and well be able to report in to Beacon once we reach our destination." I nodded, but kept the saber on for light as it was pitch black inside.
