*static noise*

"...COME IN JAZZ! DO YOU READ ME!?....F/\CK!!!"

In anger, the captain standing in a third-floor corridor with his squad mate slammed his fist into the nearby wall before taking a few deep breaths and speaking over comms again...

"Report in..."

"This is Racer, me and Dono are on the second floor West side..."

With a slight breath of relief at someone from his squadron still being alive, the captain waited but no one else replied to his order.....they were most likely all dead. Only the four of them remained...

'I need to report this to the higher-ups.....we need to get out of here and return with backup...' decided the captain before trying to contact headquarters. However, all that he was met with only static noise...

'....d@mn, all outgoing communications are blocked. Looks like only our short-wave radio communications work. This isn't good...'

Before he could decide on the next course of action, his earpiece received news...

"Captain this is Dono, me and Racer heard something on the East side of the second floor, moving that way now..."

"Roger that Dono, we're coming down from the third floor and should be able to provide support shortly...be careful."

"Understood..."

.........

Walking leisurely with a floating spear behind him, Raven walked confidently up the stairs and entered the second floor from the East stairwell, and made his way towards the West side of the house...

After reaching the second floor, while walking, raven ran his thumb over his wristwatch, what looked to be the glass cover of the device was removed and dropped to the ground. It was circular but dark black in color, and after it was swiped off by his thumb, another one took its place on the watch...

Raven once again rubbed the same watch and yet another piece of the quarter-sized device was dropped to the ground before the action happened over and over again. Eventually, the tiny devices were scattered throughout this side of the corridor before the young man turned and entered a large "music room" with instruments scattered throughout the hall...

In an impressive display of parkour ability, the young man ran up the nearby wall, vaulted off his perch, and grabbed onto the ceiling beams above. After hoisting himself up and taking a seat, Raven pulled out his phone and watched two red dots move towards this room on the device, assumingly they heard the sound of things hitting the wooden floor...

"...hehe, well this may not be as impressive as the lovely Aeon Flux's toys but similar nonetheless..." After whispering that aloud, Raven set his lips in the standard "whistle" position before blowing air and producing a firm and daunting sound...

*whistle*

Each of the small circular black devices began to shake before they rose up to form perfect circular beads that began to roll gently down the hall towards the two red dots on the observation device...

After turning a corner, the two intruders were shocked to see a wave of small "beads" rolling toward them and as their nerves were tight, they began shooting their pistols at the oncoming tide...

No bullets hit the target as the beads were able to reach the feet of the two individuals before they began to burst....the balls exploded while ejecting small pieces of metal shrapnel, essentially pumping the two gunmen full of metal....killing them instantly.

.......

The captain and his last squad member quickly came to a "T" shaped corridor, straight in front of them they saw the mangled corpses of Dono and Racer while scorch marks and debris littered the nearby area.

To the left, they saw a long corridor leading to the East stairwell, with a large door further down on the right-hand side...

With gulping sounds and determined eyes, the two raised their semi-automatic pistols and began to sneak toward the room where they assume the assailant to be if the floor marks were of any indication...
