[Tomorrow]
George: IT'S A FUCKING TURTLE!!
there was a giant grey turtle with two scorpion's pincers in his sides, it was a monstruosity of 300m in length, and it was currently walking near the city, now how did we get to this point? remember the dark presence there was yesterday night?
[one hour ago]
Leader of the Strikers: … NO! The Dreadnought Class is nothing compared to this.
the entire group of Strikers were in front of a screen watching a Metaphysical that was moving slowly towards them
Leader: The Six Heads have called it the Fortress Class
Striker: so, where is it now?
Leader: In the Sea of Japan, moving southward, It'll be past this island's shores and reach Honshu in an hour
Striker: If that thing set foot on the land…
Striker 2: It'd be a catastrophe
Striker 3: When are we getting backup?
Leader: Japan Headquarters is ordering us to retreat.
the entire group was shocked from the news
Leader: They decided that we mustn't attack recklessly while the Japan Executive is absent
Satsuki was shacking with fear, Moroha and Lucas noticed it and Lucas grabbed her hand, she got a surprised face before blushing a bit and turning
Striker: I don't get it, didn't the principal go with him to the UK, as well?
little girl: Yes, Mari-oneechan's Transportal can bring them back right away
Leader: I don't know the details, but the brass must have made their decisions
Satsuki: Are you going to follow their orders?
Leader: their orders are absolute, besides, as the leader of the squad, I can't lead you into a hopeless battle
after a moment of silence a striker spoke
Striker: Look! at that!
the entire group turned towards the screen and showed a falling helicopter with some bees that were following it
Tokoka: They should have been at a safe distance
Striker: It's either highly intelligent or aggressice
Leader: You understand now, don't you? we have no time to waste, gather your things immediately, the islanders are already being evacuated, we'll follow them off the island...what's wrong?
after the leader made his speech about why they shouldn't act recklessly Kammi raised his hand and the leader questioned him
Kammi: I have a tummy ache all of a sudden! I'll have to see a doctor on the mainland!
then he got away from th group and outside the tent they were
Kammi: bye!
then he ran away from the tent, then the entire group got away from the tent except Lucas, George, their friends, the leader, Tokoka and 3 more strikers, then after a second...
Satsuki: Moroha, Lucas...
Lucas: Go back to your rooms, let's prepare...
the group was shocked from his decision but followed him anyways
[1 hour later]
the entire group of strikers didn't retreat, instead they choose to fight and were looking at the incoming Metaphysical now, after finding more informations about the monster, like that he is attracted from sound, they decided to formulate a plan
Striker: wh-what's that?!
Striker 2: It's too big(AN: that's what she said)
George: IT'S A FUCKING TURTLE!!
then Tokoka came from behind the women strikers and groped their boobs
Tokoka: Stop warbling, chicks!
Leader: First we'll lure the Fortress towards the harbor siren, The Kurogane squad will make use of Shimon-kun's(AN: i think she's the little girl together with the principal) barrier as a safety zone, and attack from the right
Satsuki: it's headed towards the harbor just as planned (AN:AIZEN!!!)
Striker: That's our captain
Striker 2: It's like a moving Island!
Leader: Meanwhile, the Shirogane squad will focus on providing cover for the Kurogane squad, Momochi-kun (the fourth fastest girl) will use her speed to relay messages between the squads, and when the Fortress becomes immobilized, we'll have independent attacks from both left and the front
Striker: I-Independent?
Striker 2: Who's doing it?
Leader: I'll be doing the left, and I want you, Haimura-kun, and the brothers Montel, to handle the front, where we expect the most intense attack
when the plan was done the strikers were already at their positions with Moroha, Lucas and George in front of a villa waiting for a signal
George: "handle the front" he says, "we will win easily" he says... *spits on the floor* fuck him!
the eletronic things stopped working and at the same time the monster stopped too
Leader: it stopped... But now we can't- (AN: holy crap the Metaphysical is as ugly as the 'goats' from Overlord...)
the leader was interrupted from fireworks that Kammi was taking with him to make noise
Leader: what the?(AN: yeah i asked that too when i watched his hairstyle)
Kammi: WOOHOO! I'm the party of the century! (AN: Who the fuck party with a Metaphysical?) I'm so awesome!
the metaphysical looked down and found Kammi
Moroha noticed it and yelled
Moroha: Kammi Senpai!
then someone noticed that the metaphysical is moving again towards Kammi, he got scared and runned away
Kammi: Nevermind, go away!
Moroha: Kammi Senpai!
Leader: Run, Mannendo!
then the metaphysical is attacking the city
Leader: All right, it's in formation, commence operation!
[meanwhile]
Striker: No way...
Striker 2: I had no idea
Striker: I can't do this
then he started to back away before Tokoka appeared behind him and told him with a serious face
Tokoka: It can be done, and you're already standing on the battlefield, Takenaka!
then she touched his 'Jewels' and licked her hand(AN:WTF)
Tokoka: You have nice balls! You pass, step up, if any of you want to be checked too! (AN: i think my balls just shrinked...)
every strikers near refused her and prepared themselves
[more behind]
Shizuno was starting an attack
Shizuno: Dreadful Blizzard!
and threw cold air and froze part of the Metaphysical's leg, then another striker prepared another magic, same with the others
Striker: Lightning!
Striker 2: Flare!
Striker 3: Hydrosquirt! (AN: *wheeze*)
Tokoka: Incinerate!
thanks to these magics the Kurogane squad took down a leg of the gargantuan Metaphysical
Striker: we did it! (AN: 3...2...1...)
some bug type metaphysical came out from the giant one while the latter was using a pincer to stable himself and walked forward, the leader materialized his sword
Leader: stubborn, huh? Let's go, with honesty, with naivetè. My challenge to myself in this camp... is to come eve one step closer to George!
then he jumped towards another leg of the metaphysical
[flashback]
the leader was standing against his big sword at the end of the spar with George
Leader: How can I become as powerful as you?
George hesitated about the answer for a minute before telling him with a smile
George: well, it depends, there are people who aren't talented in fight, they can become stronger in training themselves in their body and tecnique.
then there are talented people, they just needs more training because they were already at their limit and some life or death fights.
then there are the lucky ones, like me and my brother Lucas, we trained more than anyone because for our conditions and our powers need time to work properly, but when they do, and we work together there is no one that can go against us, unless it's an insurmontable strength
and at last, there are people who are born to be strong, they don't need training, they will receive everything because destiny said so, i think that if me and Lucas weren't here then Moroha would be part of this category.
if you were part of a category then i would think you would be part of the second one... you just need a situation right for you, you could call it even a 'challenge'... it might not be necessarily an individual 'challenge', you only need to break your limits and go forward, and if you survive, then you passed it, it doesn't matter if everyone dies or not, you tried, and if you survived after you gave all of your strength then you did a good job, but if you didn't then you are just a lazy man and you failed the 'challenge'...
[present]
the leader pierced the leg of the Metaphysical and fell on the ground with his feet
Leader: 'I will pass this challenge, like you said to me! George!'
[meanwhile]
George: heh, that idiot of a leader is taking my words seriously
Lucas: what words?
George: nothing, well, let's get started!
