Ties of Blood: Of Fire and Steel

[Armalite_]

Ryan peered over the embankment once more. There were no signs of their persuers but that meant nothing. There was the distant sound of a motor puttering down the road while headlights slowly began to show up on the pavement. This was their ride out of there but when Ryan looked back he noticed that two were still missing. If they weren't there by the time he stopped the car, he was afraid of having to leave them behind. His palms began to sweat while switching glances from the forest and the lights. He had to make a decision fast.

[Necrosis]

(FINALLY!!! What took you guys so long?)

Tanner was still looking at Rana, when he heard the running engine, as well. He detached the scope from his PSG-1 and tried to look at the incoming vehicle...

[Gabag]

In the compound, helicopter's rotors began to spin, and the machines lifted off the ground armed with spotlights and armed troops onboard to track down any escapees.

The sound of the rotors spinning could be heard from a fair distance away. Giving anyone whos escaping a fair bit of warning.

[Shinzuu Katame: Her Tolfy]

Shinzuu continued to lay unconscious in Coraline's grip. In his mind, he dreamt of all the children, peers and sempais that he had trained, hung out with, and lived with for all these years of his life. Ah, happy times with his family made this a truly blissful dream. However, it was short lived as the shadow of the Bloodlines came into view as he relived that day once more.

[Vee Katame: His Wolfy]

As Coraline sat there, she continually looked at Shinzuu to check and make sure he was okay besides being unconscious. It wasn't long before she heard the sound of helicopter rotors starting up in the distance at the camp. "Alright, you guys, we really need to get moving. It won't be long at all before those choppers are over are heads." She said, looking at the others.

[Entaru]

Yamataru stood up shakily, only to fall right back down in pain.  The hit had done more damage than he had originally anticipated.  He could barely see the escapees on the opposite side of the embankment and he could hear choppers starting up.  Firing a few rounds from his sidearm towards the group he cursed under his breath...there was no way that the bullets would hit their marks.  He didn't know what happened...all he knew was that he couldn't feel one of his legs anymore and his back was screaming.  He began muttering obscenities to himself as he sat against the tree, paralyzed.

The car had turned the corner and was now speeding in their direction. Ryan looked over the embankment into the woods to make sure the coast was clear. He ran up to the road and stood in the middle of the car's path. There was the sound of screeching tires and his eyes went wide was the car swerved, nearly hitting him from the side but it stopped sure enough. Ryan walked up to the driver's side window. The person inside was merely a shadow and barely able to make out once Ryan put his fist through the glass and tearing the body out of the seat, ripping his victim from the car through the window. Ryan gave the person a kick to the gut a couple of times before opening the door while more glass clanked on the cement in the process. He got in the driver door while the man on the ground lay in the fetal position. "C'mon!" Ryan yelled to the others to get in.

[Necrosis]

Tanner reattached the optics back on his rifle when Ryan called. He got out of the ditch quickly and sat at the front passenger's seat. He searched the area with the rifle's thermovision and relaxed a bit. Then he decided to ask again "So Ryan. About my sister..."

[Gabag]

The sounds of helicopter rotors got louder for the occupants of the car as the helicopter itself was directly overhead. The order came in to terminate the escapees, more trouble then they were worth. So instead of dropping a squad, the helicopter turned it's right side to the car, where a soldier on a gatling gun was aiming in on the car.

If the dang helicopter could hold still long enough, Juno could unleash lead on the escapee's ride.

[Shinzuu Katame: Her Tolfy]

Shinzuu's ears rang as he regained consciousness with Ryan's voice. He slipped off Coraline's shoulder and hiked up the back of the open humvee. The helicopter rang above their heads and Shinzuu noticed a soldier on a Gatling gun off the side of the chopper. With what physical strength he had left, he threw his blades towards the mounted gun and cut its mount and its chamber clean off. Shinzuu fell back, now physically tired, "Move it!"

[Vee Katame: His Wolfy]

Coraline quickly got into the vehicle with the others as the helicopter hovered by them. She watched as Shinzuu cut of the Gatling gun and watched it fall to the ground. Using her powers, she made shifts in the air current which made it even harder for the helicopter to hold steady beside them. "Let's go! Punch it!" She said to Ryan in the driver's seat. They didn't have time to dilly-dally.

[Entaru]

Yamataru fired off a few more rounds at the vehicle as his vision began to blur.  "Aww, hell.   That's...not...good..........****."  Passing out against the tree, Yamataru slumped to the ground.  A trickle of blood fell down his face and started a small pool on the grass.

"We're not in the clear yet, Tanner!" Ryan yelled as he threw the car into gear and slammed his foot on the gas. The tires screeched as the car began to rapidly pick up speed. The car sped down the road taking turns at an alarming rate. A soldier had hopped out of the bushes and onto the road in front of the vehicle and immediately opened fire. Ryan ducked as the bullets tore through the glass. In response to this, Ryan ran the shooter down at full speed. He leaned back up in his seat, pushed the shattered windshield out the front, and looked into the back seat at Shinzuu and Coraline. Niether of them had bullet holes in them so he turned his attention back to the road. The helicopter, however, was not far behind and was focusing on the car with a spotlight. He looked at Tanner then at his weapon. "What are you waiting for!? Shoot at them!"

[Necrosis]

"Whoa! Okay." Tanner leaned out of the window and took aim at the pilot cabin. *BANG!* he squeezed the trigger and fired, but the bullet bounced off the glass. "Crap! Bulletproof glass!" Tanner cursed as he then aimed for the main rotor. *BANG* he fired again, but it didn't have any effect. "Hmph! Too sturdy." he cursed again. Only 8 bullets left. Then he took aim at the rear rotor and once it was is his field of fire *BANG!* he fired and hit it. It didn't seem to have much effect, but then the chopper started moving in a strange way, indicating the damage was more severe than he thought before.
"Okay, that should at least slow them down..." Tanner sighed in relief and leaned back in, checking his magazine. "Only 7 bullets left." he announced.

[Gabag]

Juno nearly fell out of the helicopter, with all the jostling going on. He didn't even notice his gun couldn't function any longer, as he like the other soldiers were hanging on for dear life while the pilots struggled to regain control of the machine. Soon the helicopter began to steady, and Juno suppressed the urge to vomit, some weren't so lucky. However they were turncoats so they didn't have to vomit inside their masks.

The Helicopter began to pick up speed as it tried to catch up to the escaping car.
