Pew… Swoosh
…
(Orion POV)
"Got him," I muttered while Aisa sat motionlessly next to , her eyes in a thousand-yard stare as she looked at the pile of corpses in front of her.
The mask was helping with the stench and dirty air, but it was also limiting her oxygen supply, which was terrible when she was practically hyperventilating.
"Alright, take off the mask now," I said as the three who were chasing after the man I had just killed returned to us.
They hopped down into the muddy trench, trying to avoid the solemn corpses stacked up on each other right beside us.
"HEY! ANY OF YOU GUYS GOT SO AMMO!? THEY AMBUSHED THE TRENCH IN FRONT OF US, AND NOW THEY'RE CHARGING TOWARD US! THEY ALSO MANAGED TO CUT OFF OUR COMMUNICATION!" A guy not too far down the trench shouted.
I just let out a deep sigh before shouting back.
"WE HAVE NO ASSAULT RIFLES! ONLY SNIPER AMMO! ALSO, PLEASE TRY AND HOLD THEM OFF AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE! BACK UP IS ALREADY ON THEIR WAY!" I shouted, and the man who was covered in gri and blood just nodded before running farther down the trench.
"Alright, is anybody injured?" Bella asked the entire group, and Cy imdiately fell to one knee upon hearing the question.
"Yeah… I think the guy broke a few of my ribs… shit… this place is a hell hole," He muttered, and I resisted the urge to roll my eyes.
If you think this is a hellhole, wait till you see the front lines… geez.
"Alright, let's travel further down the trench. We need to et up with the other guys and hopefully get you guy's to a dic," I muttered.
Everybody nodded for confirmation, but before we could make our way any farther down the place, a flood of soldiers entered the trench, already firing at us.
Since Aisa didn't have as much armor as everybody else, we all ford a wall in front of her while she scread, ntally breaking down as bullets flew past us, and so even hit us.
Oh wow… this armor is sturdy but holy hell, do the blows hurt. It's like a more potent punch.
"Fight back! Everyone fight back!" I shouted as calling my spear now would destroy the fras of the trench we were in, thus causing us to die from nature… not from the hands of our enemy.
"Everybody slowly fall back! We need to regroup with everybody else!" I shouted, and my directions didn't really reach them as they were more focused on surviving.
FWOOSH
All of a sudden, Findir charged towards them, his sickles wrapped in a dark whirlwind that deflected each and every bullet getting sent flying towards them.
Seeing how their guns weren't working, the group of about twenty soldiers drew so longswords slung against their backs.
"Alright, help him," I said, and I guess this reached them as they all got into formation.
Findir blasted through a trio that stepped up first and then imdiately got surrounded, but Bella shot a large bolt of lightning that paralyzed them for a bit.
With this, Cy imdiatly swung in a horizontal crescent shape, cutting off another ten heads, which quickly dropped to the ground.
It was visible his stomach dropped upon killing each one, and as the remaining seven slowly backed up, fearing for their lives, I heard them plead with honey-like tears.
"P-Please… I-I have a daughter and wife that are waiting at ho. I have to return to them… please don't kill . Please have rcy,"
"I-I have a husband who is patiently waiting for at ho… I can't die here… Please, just spare a bit of rcy,"
My friends were imdiately swayed by their words as their guards dropped, but it's not like the soldiers did this on purpose in order to get a free shot… they were actually just pleading for their life, hoping to escape this battlefield.
"Hey, kill them. What are you doing?" I muttered, and everybody slowly turned their head, only to et my cold gaze.
"B-But, they're just like us. We're only here for experience… not hatred, so can't we just let them be-"
SWOOSH… Shing
Suddenly, one of the five soldiers dipped into the shadows and reappeared behind , slashing Aisa across the chest, and this was her final breaking point as she now fainted, dropping to the ground.
But, it seems I was the only one who noticed she fainted as the others thought that she had just died.
"Kids shouldn't step on this bloody plane… If you can't even kill your enemies even after they beg for their lives, then you deserve to die for the sake of our side," The man muttered as his pitch-black hair and almost dead gray eyes were revealed from underneath his helt.
"Hey… Aisa? Are you there?" Cy muttered, frozen in place from the shocking turn of events.
And it seems the other soldiers saw this as an opportunity as Bella, Findir, and of course, Cy had frozen up like statues…
They raised their swords once again and slowly crept up on the closest victim… Cy.
"Aisa? Wake up! WAKE UP!" He shouted, and without even turning his head, he swung his spear with a rough and quick form.
Every ti he swung his spear before, it was beautiful with impeccable form, but now it was rough, quick, and strong, just what you'd expect from a man proficient in the way of the spear.
Plop… Tup Tup Tup Tup
All of a sudden, as if the gods wanted to mourn the four soldiers whose heads just lifelessly rolled on the ground, a cruel rain poured from the dark sky.
It wasn't just any drizzle, but a pour with lightning and thunder.
"You kids are very talented… It's just a sha that we had to et here," The man said before dashing towards us.
I decided to take a step back and let my friends handle this… as this is what they needed: sothing to destroy that last piece of rcy that they held for the enemy.
