| Chapter : 1.1
It was stormy this evening like it had been all week long. Nacht Killa, his code name was, sat under a canopy just outside the Sixth Column Base. He watched as his most trusted Drill Sergeant, Nacht Blade, form up a new batch of soldats. "Alright! FORM UP! Get that line straight!" Blade screamed at the shaking soldats, "Komtur Killa is watching!" Suddenly an alarm engulfed the area. Red lights pounded against Killa's skin and a siren beated in his ears. Killa turned and ran into the Base and down the hallway to the main War Room.
Just shortly after Nacht Ninja, Gemut, Leiter, Blaze, Raven and Gothic found their way in. Killa stood beside Leiter as she stood at the podium. Blade made his way in last, after he escorted the new soldats to the safety of their barracks. Leiter began as soon as the alarms silenced, "Though we are at the brink of war, I've called this Alert to prepare our entire forces. The 5th Column has been reported to move in on one of our Bases in Peregrine. Yes the naval Base. We're short manned and our forces are diminishing quickly in this war. We're going to need every man, woman and machine at the front lines tonight. Blade?" Blade stood up into attention, "Yes Ma'am?" Leiter nodded to Blade, "At ease, no formalities tonight. I need you to suit up all those new soldats and get them ready for the biggest battle we have yet to encounter."
Blade went at ease, sighing at the order. "Yes ma'am, they'll be ready when it comes time." Leiter continued, "Komtur Killa will lead the war on the front lines. I have full faith in his abilities to command each one of you in this. He'll have the plans. Now move out!" Leiter stepped away from the podium and out the doors. She vanished from sight and Killa was soon to speak. "Elite Guards, Generals, Kaptains, Offiziers of the Sixth. Tonight we will shine. As Komtur Leiter had said, we have reports that the 5th is making a move on the Naval Base. This is our only chance to survive this war. We have to defend that base at all costs. Blade, I need you to take all the soldats and form up along the base walls," Killa began speaking his long speeches everyone is aware of.
Killa didn't wait for Blade to respond as he continued, "There will be many deaths, and that cannot be helped. We joined the Sixth with full knowledge of this risk. After Blade has assembled our defense line of the base, I will take a Special Task Force with me. The use of this team will be kept in silence for now, but when the time comes you will know what it is for."
Killa glanced over at Gemut for a second and then scanned the rest of them. "I see many great heroes for the Sixth here. Gather our forces, and meet up at Sixth Isle Naval Base at 0200 hours. You are dismissed."
Killa stepped away from the podium. Everyone stood up into attention as Killa walked out of the doors into the hallway. Killa stopped outside the door and leaned against the wall. All the offiziers in the meeting room walked out and down the hall one by one. Killa stepped off the wall as Gemut stepped out last.
Gemut knew Killa was waiting for him, and the two nodded to each other as Killa signalled him to follow. Killa spoke softly in the hallway towards Gemut, "I need you friend. I can't take you with this special task force, but I need you to defend that base at all costs." Gemut didn't speak, but he let Killa know by a slight nod.
The rain had died down as it was reaching 2 A.M. in the morning. The sky remained clouded and the moon could barely been seen as a few clouds broke up. You could hear in the distance orders being barked. It came from Nacht Blade as he directed the even more shaking soldats. He examined a soldat's gear closely up and down, making sure he was fit for a fight.
Blade pushed him along and walked up to the command building. Inside the build was dim lighted and you could just see Killa and Gemut discussing stratagy. Blade came to a salute before Killa and Gemut and reported, "Sirs, all the soldats are in their stations ready for defense." Killa replied after a second of thought, "No formalities Blade. Good, now it's up to Gemut to handle this. Blade gather Kaptain Raven, Blaze, Gothic and Ninja. Meet me at the docks there will be a boat waiting there."
Without calling Blade to ease, he walked off through the back door and into the brief moon light. Gemut looked at Blade and walked by him. Blade rushed to the other rooms and gathered all the selected Kaptains Killa had asked.
A few moments later, they all arrived at the docks where Killa had been waiting. There sat next to a Sixth Tank Destroyer Ship, a tiny speeder boat. Killa motioned everyone aboard and sat at the drivers seat.
Blade sat down next to Killa and awaited everyone else to follow behind. Killa spoke quietly to Blade without looking at him, "Blade, this task force is going to bust in on Requiem's Base. Their entire forces are coming for our naval base, it won't be heavily guarded, but expect a hard fight."
Blade nodded as the sound of the boat's engines started. The others sat quiet armed to their teeth, ready for a heavy battle. | |

Ninja watched as the Naval Base disappeared from the horizon. He placed his hand over his katana sheathed over his lap. He ran his hand over the sheath multiple times getting himself ready for combat. Unease that boat was, as it ran down through the waters rushing near Talos Island. Blaze looked at his palms to concentrate on his fire ignition techniques he's been working on. Gothic and Raven sat in a yoga on the base of the boat, closing their eyes fusing their dark energy.
It was all quiet. Blade watched Killa drive, knowing that Killa was in deep thought. Something was on Killa's mind, and it wasn't Requiem. Blade was about to break the silence when Killa turned to Blade. "Team, we're going to fight a tough battle. Set aside our differences and our unique quest to run solo. We need to work together here. Leiter may have set up a horrible time to leave our main base unguarded. Lets hope her sources were correct."
Nobody spoke. There was no "yes sir" in anyone's thoughts. This battle was the battle they were waiting months for. No training got them ready for this one. Even missions with helping the local populous would make anyone ready. This was the real deal for them. Killa had the most experience in this area. His father was military before him. When Killa joined the 6th, he brought with him all the experience anyone could ever have. Blade reached to his hip to grab his sheathed katana.
Blade held on to the hilt of his katana tightly with a firm grip. Blade looked up when he heard the boat's engines go dead. Silence. Killa stood up slowly as everyone could hear the waves bouncing off the boat's sides. Killa grabbed at the side of the driver's seat his omni-gun, fitted with a scope for the sniper, shotgun barrel and rapid bursting barrel under that. He flung the strap over his head and shoulder and hopped off the boat into the water.
Blade followed quickly behind Killa finding out that the darkness revealing a shoreline to an island. This is the base. Killa had been there before. Everyone got up from their seats and hopped out of the boat into the shallow water. Blade and Killa rushed out of the water and onto the sand. Killa motioned the others to move up behind him as Blade moved further up to get a view of the base.
Blade scanned the area heavily, but seemed confused. Killa moved up beside Blade and pointed in a direction infront of Blade. "Underground. That Rock is not a rock, but a door. Stay down, wait for me to take out the cameras, then I need Raven and Gothic to hide us in your shadows. Blaze I need you to take out the left turrets while I take out the Tower Guards," Killa explained in a whisper.
Killa laid down on his stomach, moving his eyes to the scope to get a good view of the area. He aimed at the first camera and within a second it was down. No sound for the moment. Killa aimed again at the second camera and that too was down. Killa motioned for the girls to shadow everyone.
Gothic and Raven held hands, forming a blanket of dark mist. Everyone got up from their position and Killa gave Blaze the signal, as he aimed at the Tower Guard. Both took their shots at the same time, and both went down. It seemed perfect. They all moved toward the rock entrance, scanning all directions until they reached the door.
Killa searched the rock surface for a switch, and within moments, the rock slid to the side. They all entered the door one by one. Raven and Gothic dismissed the mist and awaited further orders. Killa turned to Blade and Ninja, "This is your turn. Enter quickly, and take out the patrol guards. We'll follow shortly behind you. Don't let any of them report us, or signal an alarm. This is important."
Blade didn't even nod before he zoomed off down the halls. Ninja gave a soft nod and attempted to follow Blade. Killa and the rest remained cautious as they moved through the halls. Blaze covered the rear and Killa the front. Gothic and Raven covered the two and the sides.
Blade came to a stop just before the intersection to another hall. He looked around the corner to find a single guard. Ninja came up moments later to Blade's side. Blade let Ninja know there was one guy in the hallway by showing him his index finger. Ninja looked upwards to see what Blade was talking about. Blade shook his head and pointed around the corner and showed his index finger again. Ninja gave Blade a puzzling expression and looked up again. Blade sighed and smacked Ninja in the back of the head. "no damn it , one guy around the corner," Blade whispered, almost blurting at Ninja, while giving the same gesture with his hand. Ninja nodded in finally understanding. Blade looked around the corner just in case the guard might of heard him. |

| Chapter 1.3
The clouds had cleared up from the sky, allowing the moon to reveal itself brightly, shining down on the hundreds of Sixth Soldats that manned the walls. Elite Guard Gemut stood at the command post tower, scanning outward into the distance with binoculars. Up beside him walked a figure, wearing purple shoulder pads. Gemut spoke with a calm voice, "General Obedience, have you cleaned up our docks?" Obedience hesitated for a bit as Gemut knowing he was there gave him a slight shock.
"Yes sir. Everyone of our Destroyers are now off our docks and positioned for defenses through our docks." Gemut put down the binoculars to look ever at Obedience. "Obe, we're at a critical state right now. Don't let those soldats leave their posts even if it seems useless. One weak spot will doom us all."
Obedience shuttered at the sound of Gemut's voice. It was as if he was telling him to throw soldats at the enemy. But he didn't wait long before he gave his replying, "yes sir," and then turning about to leave the tower. Not long after Obe exited the tower and command post's door, sirens went off. Obedience knew what that meant. He rushed over to the walls, climbed the stairs and peered off into the distance.
Flying in the air were bombers, flying just high enough to be outside the reach of major cannon fire, but not too high or they would stall and crash. There on the horizon, aircraft carriers, battle cruisers and submarines approached. Obedience took in a deep breath and looked over to his shoulder to a soldat. This soldat seemed to be shaking fiercely. Obedience put his hand on her shoulder and gave a slight phase, "The Sixth will live Forever. You will too." She gave a slight nod, but still remained to shake.
Obedience looked over to find Kaptain Coldness and Blue up on the wall as well. In that moment, everyone was equal. Everyone's life was now the same. Obedience looked up at the tower to see Gemut standing there. "Was he just going to let everyone die and not fight himself," he thought, "no, that's not Gemut, he's the best fighter we have."
Obedience ignored his negative thoughts and returned to the ocean. You could see in the distance a red flash of light coming from the ships. Obedience knew what that was instantly. "INCOMING!" he exclaimed loudly so everyone on the walls could take immediate cover behind the barricades.
In moments, the ground shook fierce and smoke lifted into the air. The first hits were just outside the base on the rocky shore. Obedience turned around quickly, and pointed to the cannons to return fire. On the lifts there were huge energy cannons mounted so a soldat could sit on them while firing. Within seconds the cannons began igniting solid forms of energy into the air at the ocean line. Four large balls of energy flew through the air torwards the enemy ships.
One took a direct hit, but the other three missed, diving into the water and fading away. You could feel the bit of excitement and joy the soldats and offiziers were feeling after one of the carriers began to sink. Not even the major battle had taken place yet, and they were already giving death blows.
They could see the bombers coming closer to the base up in the skies. The sky was empty of all clouds, and it would be a easy find to spot them. The ground shook a few more times, as the enemy's blasts just missed the base. It was obvious the enemy was just outside their range to hit the base. The base had the advantage with their long range energy cannons.
But nothing could touch those bombers. It would be a miracle for the bombers to miss the base or a cannon could touch them. | |

| Chapter 2.1
Metal smashing against armor made such a screeching noise as it just barely skims off it. Blade drove his katana deep into the chest of the patrolling guard. Blood oozed out of the wound as Blade unsheathed his katana from the chest. More sounds of bullet fire came.
Killa knew that was the sound of a fight. He had hoped Blade was well trained enough to avoid making noise. But it wasn't Blade. It was the other, Ninja. Ninja liked to make a mess of a fight. Using his regenerating skills to heal any wounds he gets.
Ninja jolted at the guard quickly, bashing him in the helmet with his katana's hilt. It spun the guard around a bit, causing him to lose focus of which direction to fire his weapon. Ninja did a small swipe to the guard's back causing him to clinch up tightly. The guard fell to his knees in pain, supporting the large gash on his back as much as possible.
Blade jumped over Ninja's head, and impaled his Katana's bloody sword into the back of the guard's neck. Instantly finishing the job. Blade slowly removed the steel from the neck. He wiped his katana's blade over the corpse of the guard, cleaning it up as much as possible.
Blade looked over his shoulder to Ninja who wielded a bloody tipped katana. "Just kill them. Stop messing around. And wipe that blade off. You need to understand the seriousness of this fight. We have to kill the guards. Stop letting them shoot at you," Blade said in a mild whispering tone. Ninja didn't know how to respond. He wasn't experience for a major fight as this. Not really experience for stealthy base busts. This was his first real base raid.
Blade knew Ninja wouldn't respond, so he waved his head and the two continued down the halls to clear up the guards.
Killa moved in slowly to see the wreck of blood and dead bodies. He looked over to the girls to make sure they were fine. Surprising to Killa, they seemed excited to see the 5th scum laid out dead on the floor. Raven even had an evil expression of lust to kill them herself. Killa felt relieved that he didn't have to support them in this matter.
Killa returned to his forward position, aiming his multi-purpose gun around each corner. Killa spoke to his shoulder softly as he came up to an office door, "Blade, Ninja. Report back. Need you here now."
A soft voice replied in Killa's ear piece, "Roger that! We're cleaning up a quick fight and heading to your position." | |

| Chapter 2.2
A hail of enemy fire bombarded the base from all sides. Soldats were scattered everywhere running with no order. General Obedience stood at his post, yelling orders with the tip of his voice, but it could barely be heard through the sound of gun fire and cannon bursts.
Obedience looked up again at the command post wondering where his commanding officer was. More bullets whipped by Obe's head causing him to regain his focus towards the fight.
Enemy boats began their approach on the rocky shore. Kaptain Coldness and Blue lead a group of soldats down to meet them screaming with a fearsome battle cry.
Coldness leaped at the first group of soldiers as the enemy's bullets just missed his flack vest armor. Enemy fire hit Blue in the chest, causing him to go down instantly. Coldness swiped at the Nazi foes with all he had, but a straight shot from point blank range cut his rage down instantly.
Coldness fell to the group limp with no life left in his body. Obedience shrieked with sorrow. He knew he was in charge of those Kaptains, and they went down. He shook off the pain of loss quickly and pointed to a group of soldats that stood beside him.
"Enemy incoming! Defend the base!" Obe barked at two young soldats, "You're being promoted to Kaptain! Order a group of soldats to regain that shore!" The two young soldats were shocked. Knew nothing of leading and with excitement pointed to the next soldats behind them. "We're now Kaptains Truppen and Helper! You five are to help us regain that..." Helper was rudely interrupted by enemy fire. With out any further talk, the five soldats engaged the enemy.
The first to charge was a soldat jumping with excitement for battle. He charged at the enemy, taking a few shots in the shoulders, but kept going. Suddenly from his arms came out poison filled spiked twigs. He flung some of the twigs at the enemy, and the first row got impaled and went down. The soldat took another shot in the leg, and that time felt it. He stumbled to his knees and he felt that was the end.
A green light engulfed the soldat brightly, and suddenly the wound on his leg was gone. The soldat looked back to the remaining four soldats to find another soldat. She pointed towards the enemy, to remind the soldat he was in a fight. Without any more hesitation, the soldat rushed again at the enemy, fearless of death.
Kaptain Truppen stood behind the barrier taking cover from the enemy fire. "That soldat's nuts! I'm not going out there," Helper muttered as he rested beside Truppen.
Suddenly the heavy fire came to a silence. Obedience looked over the barricade to see why the bullets stopped flying. It was obvious at that point. The bombers they had seen were closer than ever. The first wave of the enemy had came and gone.
Obedience had no clue how to defend the base from such an attack. The remaining surviving soldats regrouped at their posts. Kaptain Truppen congratulated the group of five soldats that took down the enemy soldiers and defended the shore.
"You five, what're your names?" General Obedience asked as he came up to the two new Kaptains and five brave soldats. "I'm Kaptain.." Helper was interrupted by Obe's hand stretched out in front of his face. "No, the soldats," Obe smirked out.
"I am.. Twigdeath sir. But everyone just calls me Twiggy," the first soldat with the poisoned spiked twigs said. "and you miss?" Obe asked directly to the empath who healed Twiggy. "I'm Shinteki sir. Haven't been around long so I got no nick name," she replied.
Obe nodded and gave them both a pat on the back. "We need soldats like you. I trained many soldats in my days as a Drill Sergeant. I train my soldats to be leaders. Good work you two."
Obedience didn't look again at the two Kaptains and walked back to the position on the wall. He needed some guidance, and his commanding officer was hiding out in the command post tower. He pondered up at the bombers that neared. The first wave they survived, but how will they survive the bombs?
Obedience sighed under his breath and looked over at the command post tower. He saw nobody standing there. Obedience turned to the door to the command post and saw it open slowly. Elite Guard Gemut exited the building calmly. His grey armored flack vest uniform glowed in the moonlight.
He seemed like an angel to Obe. Without hesitating, Obedience rushed over to Gemut to report. "Sir," Obe stated as he came to a stop in front of Gemut. Gemut didn't stop walking forward though, making Obe turn about and walk behind him.
"Sir?" Obe asked with a puzzling voice. "Those bombers will have us dead in the first run. Our damn cannons are unable to reach their altitudes. So I have a plan. Very risky and may or may not work. But the fact is, it is our only chance and we only have one shot at it," Gemut stated as he continued to walk towards the energy cannons.
"Sir, what is that?" Obedience replied in a question. Gemut waved over a Kaptain from the wall. It seemed there were running low on them and another followed that Kaptain. Soon a group of the offiziers gathered around Gemut.
"This is it Offiziers. We live or die at this point. I need all your help in this. Kaptain Rebo. I need your fortifying powers. Kaptain Ice. I need your cold touch. Kaptain... who are these two soldats, and why are they here?" Gemut began to explain.
Truppen and Helper looked around and saw they didn't have the shoulder pads a Kaptain would. "Sir, I promoted them to Kaptains because Coldness and Blue went down," Obedience muttered.
Gemut gave a smirk and shook his head. He continued, "Nevermind that, I need Kaptain Rebo and Ice. So the rest of you need to return to your posts. Except General Obedience. I need to talk with you."
The offiziers returned to their posts, but the three still remained. Gemut knelt down to one need and waved the three to move in and listen. Gemut waited for the three to hover over him before he started.
"Rebo, when time comes, I need you to buff me up with your skills. Ice, that frozen touch you have, I need you to freeze my fists when time comes. We have 10 minutes before those bombers reach us. So you two have better support your fellow Sixth," Gemut said coming back up to his feet. Gemut waved his hand to the Kaptains and put his arm around Obe.
"Walk with me," Gemut softly spoke walking away from the Kaptains and then continuing, "What I'm about to do is very risky. So I'm going to have to say this, even though it is hard to say it."
Gemut and Obedience came to a stop and silenced rolled in. Gemut looked up at the bombers then back down at Obedience. Obe could feel the pressure from the bombers and something was up. Gemut kept talking in rhymes and seemed a bit down about something. It was such a terrible feeling in his gut, that something was happening. | |

Voices came from inside the office. German Killa understood. But seemed it wasn't a man's voice speaking at that moment. It was coming from a woman. Her tone angered and shaken. Blade and Ninja came running up mildly stealthy. Blade saw Killa's halt signal come up and the two stopped.
Killa let the group knew there were two bodies in the office. Killa waved over Blade and Ninja.
"The voice in there. That woman's voice sound familiar. I can't get a view of it. I need a better view. Stay here and wait for my orders. I'm going in for a closer look," Killa whispered over to Blade.
Killa got up from his crouched position and on his vest he pushed a button. In seconds his body blurred into nothing. He vanished from everyone's eyes. You could hear footsteps step through the door and then fade away.
Killa's voice silently came over the ear pieces of everyone waiting outside the door, "I'm moving in. Await my orders." While moving in, Killa looked beyond the statue that blocked his view earlier. There before him stood two people he's seen before.
Killa remained frozen almost in shock, unable to really life any part of his body. He was numb with the sight he had seen before him.
A heavily built man stood before a thin set woman. The man in 5th Officer uniform, but none he's ever seen before. The other was in a white helmet, gloves and boots, with a black armored flack vest and cargo pants, and red shoulder pads with white trimming around it.
The man grabbed the woman by the throat and lifted her off her feet. "Leiter, you know better than to defy me. You stand no chance against my army," the man said in his German dialect. He tossed Leiter to the ground and suddenly turned towards Killa's position.
Killa flinched a bit for a second and stared into the eyes of the man. "He can't see me can he?" Killa thought. The man laughed and turned back to Leiter.
"This cloaker thinks he can hide from me?" The man exclaimed in a smirk. That moment Killa knew he really did see him and yelled over the ear pieces, "MOVE IN!"
Within seconds Killa had uncloaked and 5 eager offiziers of the Sixth Column had busted into the office ready for a fight. The man walked over to Leiter and picked her up and waved her in front of himself.
"I have your wonderful Komtur Leiter here. She is weak, as I had known you all would be. Give up this stupid resistance. It is worthless," said the man. He was almost chuckling at the six daredevil Sixth Columnists.
Leiter looked over at Killa through the goggle lenses. Killa still in a bit of a shock, unable to respond to anything. Blade held out his katana anxious to kill this man, whoever he was.
"Fa.. Father?" Soft words came tumbling out of Killa's mask. The man quirked a look at Killa in confusion. "Father? I thought.. what are you doing here?" muttered Killa almost in a trance. | |

It was silent again. The calm before the storm it seemed. The bombers were even closer now and the soldats watched as Rebo, Ice, Obedience and Gemut gathered around the energy cannons.
"Obedience, I'm relieving myself as Elite Guard to the Komturs," Gemut said in calm tone, "And I'm handing Elite Guard over to you." Rebo and Ice remained silent, while Obedience stared at Gemut unable to speak.
"Don't speak Obe, you have done well to command these soldats. I'm sure Komtur Leiter and Komtur Killa would be proud to have you as their Elite Guard," Gemut said as if it was his final words.
Gemut didn't look at Obe once, he focused his sights on the bombers above. Gemut looked over to Rebo and Ice for a second then nodded. After his nod he returned to the skies. Rebo concentrated hard, and pointed both his hands at Gemut, openning them slowly to release energy into Gemut's body. A slight glow came over Gemut. Gemut clinched his fists tightly, allowing himself to know he really is buffed.
Ice walked over to Gemut's front side, placing his hands over Gemut's but didn't touch him. Ice's body became cold and his body began to build a coating of ice to form his over his skin. Gemut's fists began to burn slightly, and he closed his eyes as his hand's gloves began to build a coat of ice themselves.
Gemut gave one last nod, and he walked up the platform to the cannons. He took in a deep breath and lunged forward. A loud bursting sound erupted beside him and at that second Gemut leaped into the air. Two large balls of energy zoomed up in the air towards the bombers. Gemut was able to reach the first one, knowing he had super jumped very high into the air to catch them.
Gemut grabbed onto the dense object with his ice coated right hand and pulled himself closer to it. His veins bulged out heavily, revealing the struggle for even a super strong person. He reached over and grabbed the other energy ball with his left hand, grunting to announce the use of a lot more of his might.
In a slow motion, Gemut closed his eyes and began to twist himself in mid-air while holding onto the energy balls. Gemut's armor and gear began to melt rapidly, making the heat known of the energy balls. His veins bulged even more, his muscles flexing tightly and his goggles shot from his face.
His dark brown eyes turned towards the incoming bombers, just out of the reach of the energy ball's range of damage. Gemut knew it was time. He was losing velocity and the balls were soon to fall with him attached.
Gemut's skin had began to turn black with smoking skin from his burning hands. The ice had allowed him to hold on for long enough to reach the peak of the firing distance. The fortitude Rebo had given him allowed him to resist the pain he was enduring.
It was time he thought. In the spin, he clinched down on the energy balls tightly with whatever strength he could muster up. He closed his eyes once more and let go.
The balls rocketed upwards towards the bombers. Their barriers weakened, the energy balls began to disperse. Two balls became ten, and then ten became two hundred.
Gemut's body began to plummet towards the body of water, thousands of feet below him. His body felt limp and he couldn't feel his hands anymore.
The first few energy balls reached the bombers. Entering them and then exiting them quickly fading away as they dispersed even further. The Soldats watched on the ground impatiently hoping the sacrifice of Elite Guard Gemut went successful.
Suddenly one by one each bomber began to explode. Erupting into ashes. The soldats burst into excitement cheering for the bombers failed attempt to drop on them.
Obedience didn't cheer as he watched the flashes of light ignite the bombers. He watched as each one fell. Gemut did it. He knew the energy balls could ignite the bombs inside the bombers after the energy ball's barrier that kept them compact faded.
Ice and Rebo jumped for joy, excited that they could live. Rebo turned to Obe and with a smiling face, "Sir, what is wrong? Gemut got them."
Obe turned to Rebo and sighed, "Gemut is gone. Kaptains are dead. We are celebrating a mild victory, but the war isn't even close to over." | |

The man that stood before the Six Sixth Columnists dropped Leiter to the side and quirked his neck to the side allowing a loud pop echo the silent office. Leiter's face was revealed heavy struggling as she tried to get up to her feet.
"I have no son, boy," the man stated into Killa's direction. Killa pulled up his weapon and pointed it at the man. "Who are you? Why do you look and sound like my father?" Killa asked with a shaking voice. The man began to chuckle as if Killa's demanding questions were not so tough.
"I'll tell you boy. I am Requiem. As for being like your father.. well that could be explained only one way. You must be one of my enhanced creations," Requiem replied.
Killa lowered his weapon slowly trembling in shock. "What?! There is no way I'm a creation of yours.." muttered Killa. Requiem gave another chuckle as he scanned Killa's body entirely. Requiem gave himself a solid nod and ended with a huge smile.
"That's right boy. I am your father only because I created you. Your nothing more than just an experiment used to buff up our army. But if you are here fighting against me.. then I must say.. you didn't really fail after all."
"What do you mean fail? I grew up with my father and I never once stood inside a military compound growing up. So this makes no sense to me." Killa said with full confidence that Requiem wasn't speaking the truth.
Requiem looked Killa over once again and thought about it carefully. "Boy, you're not one of my normal super soldiers that's for sure.. You can't be that one... can you?" Requiem started into his rambling thought.
During this whole time, Leiter had made it back to her feet and began giving Blade and Ninja special assassination orders with hand signals well hidden from Requiem's sight. Killa continued to converse with Requiem in his quest to find out what was really going on.
"What do you mean that one?" Killa asked in curiosity. Requiem replied in another rambling thought, "that boy... We didn't create him, he was just... created on his own. But he died. Died because he was too strong for us and we couldn't control him.. But this doesn't make any sense.. you can't be that one. You have his memories of me? If that was true.. you were like a son to me.."
Killa looked around to the others and back at Requiem. "But you're nothing like I remember.. you taught me honor and how to be a true warrior. I don't understand what's going on.."
Requiem shook his head slowly in disbelief, "You aren't him. My son is dead."
With that, Blade and Ninja sprang into action lunging their katanas at Requiem quickly. Killa lifted his weapon again aiming it at Requiem as well. Requiem turned his head at the two attacking him and caught their katanas bare handed. The two came to a halt in mid-air as Requiem swung his arms up and then back, flinging the two backwards. Leiter pulled out daggers from her boots and in a stabbing motion lunged at Requiem from behind. She slashed at his bicep cutting him slightly. Requiem turned to her quickly giving her a backhand with the arm that got cut. Leiter went flying backwards into the wall hitting it with such force it cracked. Leiter fell to her ass and fell over to her side.
Killa fired his weapon at Requiem at that moment. Gothic and Raven summoned two dark beings and they began to turn the room dark and misty. Killa couldn't tell if the shot made contact with Requiem. Killa flipped his night vision on and could see a massive body running at him. In that instant he felt a large blow to his face and blacked out. | |

| Chapter 4.1
The sound of the wind blowing through the ravished walls echoed around the base as everyone's joyous victory over the bombers was silenced by Obedience's commanding voice, "Soldats! A brave warrior gave his life today, so that you could have your lives just that much longer. He will be remembered for this, and don't think it's just because he was the Komtur's Elite Guard. No, he was loyal to our cause. Loyal to the Komturs. Loyal to the protection of what we are here for. And even if we don't know the person standing beside us, we didn't come to this point so we can fail now. Lets give those bastards everything we have!"
The base erupted in cheering and chanting. Obe stepped down from the cannon platform and walked over to his remaining Kaptains. "Kaptains, fall in on me," Obe announced as they gathered around. "We need to counter their attacks with one of our own. So we're going need disrupt their naval assault. I want to send a group in behind their troop attacks to one of their back naval ships and trap them in. This way we can force them into our cannons and maybe send those bastards to hell."
Rebo raised his hand slightly at Obe. "General Sir.. I mean.. Elite Guard Obe Sir.. With your permission, you're going to need a medic in this team. I volunteer myself."
Obe gave a smile at Rebo and nodded. "Rebo, you've always been about the Sixth, but never wanted to prove yourself other than making sure the soldats never fall off the trail. Good man, and I'll be happy to take you with me."
The Kaptains jerked their head at Obe quickly at statement. "Sir! You are heading this mission? I will go with you!" blurted Ice. Obe shook his head at Ice and pat him on the shoulder plate. "Sorry Kaptain, I want to leave you in charge of this base. I will take two soldats though. Blue, gather TwigDeath and bring another soldat you believe has very well qualities."
Ice and Blue gave their nods and Obe waited for his two soldats to arrive. TwigDeath rushed up to the offiziers with curiousity and stood in attention. The second soldat came up following behind Blue and stood beside Twig in attention.
"At ease Soldats." Obe commanded as he examined his soldats heavily. "Listen up, you two are going to be going on a mission with Kaptain Rebo and myself. This one will be tough and I pulled you here because you are standing above the rest. I already know TwigDeath here, but who is this other Kaptain?"
"Wielder sir," answered Blue, "He is the last surviving soldat on my wall sir. He saved my life even. I won't deny his abilities. That is why I chose him."
Obe walked up to Wielder and stared him down. "I'm glad you are among us soldat. I expect a great future for you, so don't let me down."
"Alright! Kaptains, get our gear and get those walls reinforced. Medics to the rear and don't let those bastards take our docks," Obe gave as his final command of the base before he made his way to a small boat being followed by Kaptain Rebo and the two soldats.
Obe and the others hopped into the small boat and pushed off into the rapid dark waters. "Sir," Twig blurted. "What is it Twiggy?" replied Rebo. "I hope this mission brings us a great victory," stated Twig.
Obe remained silent as his mind ran again in his head, "So many lost Kaptains and Offiziers. The soldats can't handle another major assault without leadership. Lets hope my faith in Ice and Blue keep them from turning their hopes of a victory."
Rebo leaned over to Obe's side and began to whisper, "Sir.. we have no real plan on how we're going to do this do we?" Obe didn't look over at Rebo and sighed. "An amount of hope will bring a victory. You were always the quick to assume the worst."
Rebo returned to his normal position and looked up at the night sky. Obe turned his attention to the dark objects in the water heading towards the base. "Quiet, we can't let them catch us," Obe said as he waved everyone to crouch down.
The sounds of gun fire bursted into the air and soon a storm began to rain down on both groups at the base. Obe took in a deep breath and returned his focus back to the enemy ships at sea. | |

| Chapter 4.2
Bullets ricochet off the cannon platforms causing Ice to take cover behind rubble from a fallen wall. Blue gathered a group of soldats and took position behind the wall just beside where the wall was calapsed. They could see the enemy moving in closer.
"Soldats! At this very moment, Elite Guard Obedience is performing his plan and as long as we hold these bastards off we will have our VICTORY!" Ice yelled violently into the air attempting to reach over the sound of explosions and bullet fire. "CHARGE THEM!"
The soldats Blue had gathered up rushed around the wall and into the line of fire of the on coming enemy soldiers. Blue leaped up into the air at one of the enemies and landed on him. Two of the soldats ganged up on another. There was a female holding the enemy's back while the other male punched at the enemy's gut. From behind the female jumped up another enemy at her. She didn't see him coming and he pulled her off his comrade. Struggling to get free she kicked and squirmed, but still couldn't manage. Out of nowhere the enemy released his grip and fell over. The female turned around to see a soldat holding out his claws he wore on his wrists.
She was going to give him a giant hug, but remembered they were still in combat and continued on. She watched as the soldat jumped into every fight slashing his claws around fiercely. She followed in behind him watching his back.
While ducking under the rubble to avoid the enemy fire the female soldat looked over to her side as she took a quick breath. There was the first male soldat she was helping before. She could hear the sound of bullets wizzing by and the moans of the wounded.
"This is intense! Who was that dude with the claws that helped you just now!?" Yelled the male soldat attempting to speak over the loud noise. She looked turned to poke her head out to see the action and try to find a way out. "Soldat Talon," she mentioned without any major care if the male heard her.
The male moved in closer to her to make sure he heard her correctly, "What? Did you just say Talon? Like as in THE Talon?" She turned over to the male soldat giving a slight nod, "Yep that's the one. He's held high in regard by many of the offiziers" A bit giddy now, the male soldat attempted to look over the rubble to grab a view of Talon in action.
"I can't believe that he's real... I mean.. I've heard stories of his missions," he muttered in disbelief. The female soldat laughed and shook her head, "Wow.. you need to stop listening to gossip"
The male soldat looked at her in confusion, "What? You don't believe any of it?" She shook her head and laughed again, "I was there for a lot of his missions doofus. And Talon's good. Saved my butt many times."
The male soldat sat down in more disbelief, "No way Spice! You've been on a mission with Talon!? How did that happen?"
Spice turned away from the male soldat and snickered in her mask, "Talon's not the only favored soldat by the offiziers these days"
From over the rubble jumped a soldier in a black uniform. Instantly he launched his assault rifle's bullets into the chest of the male soldat as he landed. Spice turned quickly to the sound and was unable to respond quick enough to see a barrel moving toward her. Suddenly the soldier seemed a bit unstable and fell hard on his back. Spice looked on the ground to find it covered in ice. Almost assuming it was Kaptain Ice to save her. But as the soldier was attemptin to get back up, in landed a solid brick of ice on top of the soldier. The block of ice had been in a form of a person as it began to whale onto the soldier with wild blows to the head. When the soldier stopped twitching the iced person stood back up and turned over to Spice. Slowly the ice faded and revealed a female soldat.
"Spice.. you gotta be more careful dear," smirked the female soldat. Without giving Spice time to reply, she was off running again rearmoring herself in ice at the same time. "Thank.. you... uh.. Eis.. yeah.. guess I should get back to fighting... " Spice muttered to herself. | |
