Battle of Italica pt.1
[ ] = Local language.
Fire. That was all that Tucker could see from the Eastern Walls. His view was soon interrupted though by an annoyed yell from Rory who, to no one's surprise, was the most upset about the bandits location to attack.
Rory: Oh, why did they not come here?!
Grif: Are you kidding me, this is probably the best thing ever. Now we don't have to overwork ourselves.
Simmons: Is that really all you have to say about this?
Wash: Quiet you two.
The two Red soldiers complied as Washington glowed again before returning back to his normal form. His posture relaxed slightly as he soon shook his head.
Itami: Nothing?
Wash: They are all concentrated at the Eastern Walls. Most I can see is two or three parties of scouts keeping an eye on us at a distance.
Kurata: So...what do we do?
Itami sighed as Wash and Carolina soon shook their heads.
Carolina: Nothing for now.
Wash: With those scouts on us, its best we stay put so that our fellow defenders can hold their side of the wall without the fear of getting flanked.
Tucker sighed as he fiddled with the hilt of his energy sword. Doc looked over, his eyes brows arched as he soon removed his helmet, revealing his pale white skin and light red hair. He soon wiped the sweat from his brows as Washington soon racked his rifle's bolt back, readying it.
Washington: Hey Itami, did we get any word from the Eastern Wall's defenders?
Itami shook his head, and the distant shout of the bandits soon erupted from the East as fires lit up the night sky. Kuwbara looked at his watch, as a grim expression soon spread across his face.
Kuwbara: It's taking them a while to fend them off this time.
Carolina nodded and soon a deafening cry from the Eastern wall soon rose as the first beginnings of the sun's rays begin the eclipse over the horizon. Washington glowed once again, his stature stiff before suddenly he jerked back, the glow around him dissipating as he soon grabbed his rifle. The Japanese and the Red and Blues soon went for their rifles as Itami soon slapped a hand onto the Freelancer's shoulder.
Itami: What did you see?
Wash: The bandits breached the walls, they are now fighting down to the gate controls.
His news soon made Grif pale as Simmons shook his head.
Simmons: Their not going to last long.
Kuribayashi: Then what are we waiting for? Lets go kick their ass!
Itami: We need some of us to stay behind. Wash, can I ask you to stay behind?
Wash: I can do that, just keep comms on.
Itami: Roger. Caboose, Carolina, Tucker, Kuribayashi, Kuwbara. With me.
Sarge: What about us?! I want to rip some bandit skulls off!
Itami: Your shotgun might cause friendly fire, after all they don't have guns and can't keep their distance behind you.
Sarge: Aw num nuts.
Grif: Well, I just we just sit here.
Simmons: Stay safe yall!
Tucker: Oh we will.
Carolina: Alright, lets go!
The two groups soon separated, however a wail soon arise from the walls. The soldiers turned to see Rory against the wall, her legs rubbing against one another as her face was flushed red.
Sister: Damn, she on her period?!
Lelei shook her head as she soon ran to the apostle's side, giving a small check for temperature with her hand before then looking at the soldiers.
Lelei: [Lieutenant Itami, do you know what apostle Rory is for?]
Itami stopped for moment before Lelei spoke again.
Lelei: [Rory is the apostle to the god of death, so whenever someone dies in battle, it is through her body that the soul passes through to heaven. It's effect is that of euphoria, and in high amounts can cause her distress.]
Lelei then looks at Itami, concerned written on his face, and soon nodded towards the Eastern Walls.
Lelei: [She needs to distract herself.]
Itami stood for a second before then nodding and motioning for Rory to stand up.
Itami: Ok, you can join us.
Rory soon flashed a small smile and leapt up, halberd in hand as she soon began to rocket off into the city, running through rooftops as incredible speed.
Carolina: Alright, lets head out. Church!
Church: Wait, what are you do-
Carolina soon leapt from the walls and onto the nearest building before then following Rory through the rooftops, Church screaming becoming more distant. Itami soon shook off his surprise and motioned for his team to move, soon running towards a jeep and opening the doors before firing up the engines.
Itami: Lets follow them!
Kuribayashi/Tucker: Roger/Ok!
Caboose: Yeah, field trip!
