The Animus

[Shinzuu Katame: Her Tolfy]

Shinzuu ducked and slid under the kick, ending up back to back with the Lieutenant as he lands. Shinzuu hooked his left arm onto the Lieutenant's right arm, and forced him down, using the Lieutenant's own momentum against him. He jumped up and gripped the katana with both hands, and came down with an execution strike, aiming for the Lieutenant's neck.

((Heehee  Brother and sister..... ))

"You like that? Huh? Does it hurt?" Gavin asked as he continued to pound the creature with his bat, almost as a gang member would pound an innocent victim in a dark alley somewhere. He didn't know where this bloodlust was coming from....all he did know was that he wasn't going to hold back any longer. For Trisha's sake he was not going to be a damn coward.

Veronica continued to shoot at the attackers. There wasn't much else to do anyway. She kept glancing around at the others to make sure they were doing alright and didn't need any assistance. The attackers numbers had decreased but so had their own. One attacker got too close and she drew a sai with her left hand, stabbing it through the neck and the chest. As the attacker fell to the ground, she holstered her sai and continued her hail of bullets.

Rubbing her chest, Tori returned to her feet, "Thanks, sorry I'm not much of a protector."
Seeing another grunt charging behind Nero, Tori threw the first thing she found on her belt, a monkey wrench. Hopefully it would discourage the creature.
"Behind you!"

[Gabag]

"SOMEBODY HELP ME THE (CENSORED) UP!!!" Felix yelled, his legs bleeding profusely, as no one noticed him... sitting in a pool of his own and enemies' blood.
Life sucks. His own squad didn't seem to pay any sort of attention to the fact he was DYING.
Heck they were the Medic team for crying out loud.

Talk about a horrible irony.

[Shinzuu Katame: Her Tolfy]

Rocher fired off a few shots from his M-4b Carbine to ward off the other Acolytes as he ran to assist Felix. He dragged Felix all the way back behind the first line where two of the Medics were waiting for them. Rocher stood up and looked over a Felix's wound, his face grew dim. He looked over at the medics, "Do whatever you can to fix that up. *Looks over to Felix, blushing a little* Don't worry, sir, I'll man your post. You know, Sarge... I never got say this... but if we don't make it through this, I just wanted you to know that I lo..." Rocher's words stopped as he found the tip of two blades sticking out of his throat. His eyes rolled back as he choked and gagged for a whole second before his head was subsequently removed.

[Gabag]

Although Felix didn't like Rocher that way, he still was horrified to see the man die in a horrible way.
"YOU SON OF A....." He didn't bother finishing the sentence, he had already grappled at the offenders legs and took him to the ground. In response to Rocher's head being removed via blade insertions. Felix returned the favor by forcing the grunt's arms to stab himself in the head, but Felix wasn't done there.
He grabbed Rocher's fallen gun and went full auto on the Grunt's head to be absolutely sure, and to be sure payback was served. He kept pulling the trigger even when nothing but clicks came from the gun. He bent his head down to the mutilated face of the grunt and yelled defiance in his dead foe's ears, probably stinging his ghost now.

He was dragged back screaming the whole way, by the medics and was injected with a bit of morphine; He was no longer angry... he seemed a lot calmer... and eventually fell asleep.

(Felix doesn't like it when bffs get hurt and or die... it tears him up on the insides)

[Entaru]

The Lieutenant, who hadn't expected the attack, was beheaded in one foul sweep of the blade.  The body sat there for a moment before collapsing to the ground, finally dead.

Nero quickly ducked underneath the wrench as it slammed into it's target's face.  With a quick spin, Nero swung the pickaxes in a scissor-like fashion, executing the Acolyte as the points entered his brain.  "Thanks!  I guess we're even."

[Shinzuu Katame: Her Tolfy]

Shinzuu flung the Acolyte blood off his blade as he switched the katana to his left, while he drew out his M500. He just caught sight of Rocher being beheaded. Shinzuu spied several more coming in from the rear and spotted more from the flanks, beginning to wipe out the unexpecting scouts and 4 of the 6 civilians. He fired two shots, killing 3 of them. "Scout Team! Veronica's Team! About face!"

[KittKat chunky~]

At Shinzuu's shouted command Kitt acted on impulse, his soviet military training took over and he swung his AK around in a wide arc, the frsit Acolyte was brought within his iron sights as he squeezed the trigger... The weapon jolted in his paws, again and again, the loud and unmistakable bark of a Kalashnikov rung through the air as the first couple of acolytes where flung from their feet... the rest of the scout team turned, and opened fire themselves...

They had been ordered to hold the perimeter.... no matter the cost...

[Vee Katame: His Wolfy]

"Can't these stupid things just all be dead already." She grumbled to herself as her and her team followed Shinzuu's command. She ran at one of the attackers, releasing her P-90 and drawing her twin sai. "I'm. Tired. Of. Fighting. You. Things. Just. Die." Each word was emphasized by a stab or a slice she gave the attacker. As the dead attacker fell to the ground, their blade came up and cut her across the stomach. It wasn't a deep cut but it was enough to hurt and make her bleed. She holstered the twin sai and grabbed her P-90, running back to her line. Once she was back in the line she started to shoot at the remaining attackers, ignoring her wound.

[Entaru]

The last Acolytes dropped in the hail of gunfire.  As the guns ceased firing, their echoes could be heard throughout the quiet landscape.  Many laid dead at the feet of the group, both friend and enemy alike.  The ground was dyed red with the fallen and the wind seemed to mock the travelers as it blew gently as if the world was fine again.  Nero stood toward the back of the group overlooking the charnel house that was the battlefield.

Gavin let out a sweet sigh of relief as he noticed that yes....he'd finally hit the creature to death....Shaking uncontrollably, tail jittery and hair on end, Gavin reslung his metal bat and reajusted the straps of the pack on his back. He needed a drink. A few drinks. Heck, he needed a few drinks, a bed and a locked door with how badly his mind had just been thrown around. But those were things he wasn't going to get...Not now at least. He sidled back to his group nervously, trying to will himself to stop shaking, to take a few deep breaths and calm down, but being unsucessful even at something that small......

[Shinzuu Katame: Her Tolfy]

Shinzuu panted as he looked around the carnage at the end of the battle. Only eight people left, including himself. He slowly walked over towards the now dead medical team. Shinzuu slowly sifted through their remains, looking for any salvageable items that will come in handy to them in the future. In a soft voice, nearly choking, Shinzuu gave out his commands. "Veronica, grab any and all ammo and supplies of the like that are relevant to our current weapons and take the big guy with you. Kitt, take Tori and Gavin and take care of Nero and Felix. Finish patching him up. I'll see what medical supplies we have left that we can salvage."

[KittKat chunky~]

Kitt nodded, wiping blood from his muzzle.... that split second longer that the rest of the scout team had taken... had cost them their lives..... he shook his head, sling his ice pick back onto his combat pack, the weapon still dripped with blood... He eased his grip off of his AK, his paw shook slightly even once he had let go of the cold steel, turning to find Tori he steadied his breathing forcefully...

Despite what he had said to SHinzuu... he'd never actually seen any real combat, never seen his whole team die, and no way he could stop it.... paw still shaking he walked up to Tori, and turned her round, nudging her softly in the direction of Gavin, Nero and Felix.... he spoke in a shaken voice, quite unlike his normal bravado....
"Glad to see your still alive Tori..."
