All regular unit spreading out, covering the capital from sudden attack. The scale of attack is rather large compared to the 422 squad number. Even so, since they were closest and the only squad on stand by, they are the first to response. However this is not the usual case since the captain is currently on red zone along with Commander Crowe who begrudgingly pick up arms. While there's a regular army, it doesn't fit to fight against this sheer number of empire. Kurt just informed by Commander Crowe that almost close to quarter only squad remain to defend capital while the rest is on Anthold to pushing forward to Naggiar.
"damn it, we can't hold them at this rate!" shout Kurt
"relax, your buddies is coming right?" said Commander
"yes sir but we need the strength as of now!"
"hey, those regular do their job, let them. you just make sure you survive because i don't want to be bearer of bad news"
"sir i appreciate the concern but at this rate, they gonna push us to the castle!"
"hey, have a little faith. you gain trust from others to become captain of shit squad. now they on their way to help your ass, and you doubt them? shit me boy, i hope you just acting. and one more thing. if they indeed reach castle, that will be their last mistake"
"why?"
"most of our manpower is directed there. thank General later"
Kurt don't believe this. innocent people run for their life while the manpower is used to cover someone who barely if ever, show it's face? This is beyond Kurt hoped for from regular army.
"yeah that bootlicker think he is smart but apparently he forget there's us"
Kurt frown "sir if it just us i don't think we made it"
Crowe sigh "ok boy stop right there. i show you some fight when your buddies come. fight is not only about kill em all and paint it red on the wall you know"
Anastagi and the rest of the squad has arrived but not without a fight to get into the capital. Everything is a mess. dead body piling and scattered around the street. For whatever it is, they know this attack isn't just a show off. Empire really gone too far this time. Rush in to reach their captain, the oppressive attack from Empire is rather overwhelming. Not to mention they going forward without someone in charge.
"this is just crazy. my ear ringing with bullet impact on my armor non-stop" mutter Anastagi
"hey we got civil here! they in the middle of crossfire!" shout Giulio
"i can't reach there too many lancer!" shout Gusurg
"not much defense here we being pushed back!" shout Imca
"fuck it. hey, in case you guys found any civil, just save their ass! Alfons, keep contacting our cap!"
"i'm on it already!"
Gusurg report back "this is bad. we can't do much to those civil once tank arrive!"
"tank? oh fuck it where they at!?"
"around market, some of people still inside the building but that place is red zone. we cannot guarantee if the enemy tank mistaken them as sniper!" said Gusurg
"they gonna fire at them!" said Riela
Alfons reporting in "hey we got signal!" and he quickly take it but most of it is static
"...hey...it's....civil here...now!"
"who was it?" ask Anastagi
"don't know. sounds like a woman. perhaps regular army inside some building along with people trapped" said Alfons "they maybe around here though. the signal is rather bad"
"fuck. guys i handle this. try to cover up any people who run away and make sure to pay attention if Kurt contact us!" said Anastagi before run off to the caller location.
As Anastagi cut open the path, he search any home for the distress caller. It's hard to track it since the signal almost cut off. He made many attempt to call back the person but most of it is either static or her words is inaudible. After he reach the 8 house, his radio pick up signal.
"is this the army? help us! we got wounded!" said the caller who sounds like adult woman
"are you the one who called?" ask Anastagi
"no it's our protector but she got injured. we don't know how long we can survive this"
"okay then where you at?"
"around the market right beside burned transport. i don't know what you call it but it transport us in reinforced plate"
Anastagi nod "it's APC. stay there and make sure to keep your head away from the window!"
It take another minutes to find the burned vehicle. the building still stood tall but Anastagi know the tanks Empire bring will cause the trouble more than this.He knocked the door and immediately answered with the old man opening the door. He said someone been injured while saving them and is in critical condition. Anastagi is not doctor so he's rather clueless on this. He followed the old man to the second floor. Sure enough he see the woman who call them here. It's just, he didn't expect it was his teacher.
"oh shit, teach! Carrisa! hey!"
The woman had a 2 bullet on her left abdomen and right arm. But the worst of it is graze on her neck. It's not torn open but it cause her blood loss worsened. She losing blood fast as she having hard time moving her eyes to see who call her name.
"you..."
"yes it's me. shit, what to do...what to...shit!" he pick his radio "hey! does any of our engineer is free to move!? i need medic fast! there's...wounded here and i need medic. i don't care who!"
"i could. but i can't go on alone" said Clarissa
"i cover you. where you at 9999?" ask Imca
"at the 2 stories building near the burned AP-"
Anastagi stop his request as he realize he was stand there right in the window. The moment he look out, there stand the Imperial tank aiming. He curse himself and shout to everyone to get cover. As he cover his teacher from impact, the loud booming noise is ringing through their ear. The building collapse, bring down whole people along to the ground.
"Anastagi!? respond! respond i say!" shout Riela
"squad reporting in. i repeat, squad reporting in!"
"Kurt! right on time, where are you?"
"in the castle gate holding off the Imperial from breaking in! how's the situation out there?"
"we trying to reunite with you. but Anastagi got into trouble and we don't hear any respond from him!"
"ok. get him out from there whatever it is. don't worry i can't hold them off with commander Crowe. now go! the more time you waste waiting, we will lose this point!"
As the dust cease, Anastagi manage to shrug off any debris and get out there along with Carrisa who just barely hang in there had it not been Anastagi reflex to hug her tight. Even so that's not stopping her from bleeding out as it seems most of it already drip on her hand.
"9999, respond!"
"Imca! i'm okay! we need to cover since the Imperial tank coming through. try not to get their attention! they shoot at me seconds ago. shit my ear still ringing"
Carrying the merchant girl bridal style, he throw away his shield and move away from incoming tank. Luckily there's no APC or the foot soldier coming on his back as he is incapable for battle. Carrisa still put a pressure on her neck but the blood loss start to take effect as she lose some of her strength. She even feel light headed.
"hey where you guys at!?"
"just past the chapel. there's just tank here we need to go around!" said Imca
"oh for shit sake. hey! nurse! do you know how to handle a blood loss? i got someone wounded around neck and she bleeding fast!"
"just...just keep pressure on it and make sure the blood didn't spill fast! use any pressure means!" said Clarrisa
"or you can use the knee. just mind your weight!" said Imca
Finding the place to hide is somewhat challenge as there's holes everywhere and he didn't know if the foot army may break-in to check for survivor. However he throw all possibility when he found one and just enter it without care as long as he can hold out until help came in.
"okay, knee. that would do but...please don't make this worse" mutter Anastagi
As he put away her arm, Anastagi shocked to see the open wound that let out flow of red than he ever see before. Kicking his shock, he pull a small towel, clutching it on the wound and put his knee on it. he didn't know how to do it since he never face this situation. As he can see, the towel feel wet in a seconds. He fear he didn't do it right. What's more, he never lose someone like this. Death on prison is daily basis but here, it feels wrong.
"Teach, i hope i didn't mess this up. dammit! why it took so long!?"
He look back to nearby window and back to her. Leaving her pressure off will be the end of her so he never let his body move an inch. He still see her breathing but rather heavy as she also start to feel numb. Tension around this building keep built up as some tanks passing by. It finally hit him that one of it decide to stop. This is not the situation to fight back, not to mention he throw away some weapon after picking Carrisa. As luck would have it, he heard door open and he curse. Seeing a handgun on Carrisa small bag, he pull it out as he see who just come in.
"another move you're dead! wait...those uniform"
The Gallian regular, lead by white haired man stand before him. As he see Anastagi and Carrisa, he order his men to put down their aim.
"i'm sorry who are you? i'm Baldren Gassernal, Captain of the heavy arms unit"
"...9999 as you see on my uniform. look, you and i is on the same side. i need medic and fast!"
"not so fast. we can't help someone who is not priority especially if they are unknown squad"
"fucker! she's dying! fine! go ahead and shoot me but take care of her or you got whole new problem in afterlife!"
The captain assess the situation and summon someone to get here. Then few seconds later a young woman appear and introduce herself as the captain young sister, Audrey Gassernal. She ask Anastagi to let her check the wound and once she see it, she swear and order her subordinate to get here quickly. Leaving the merchant girl to the hands of the young woman, he stand there sigh in relief.
"Captain! report! some soldier just came, claiming their comrade is here!" said one of the soldier
"are they a woman in nurse cap and other one in armored?" ask Anastagi
"yes they are"
"those are my comrade. captain, if i may ask, let one of my nurse help"
"very well. what are you anyway? i never seen such a uniform but you fight for Gallia" ask Baldren
"well yes we are. unfortunately all you need to know we just the squad that should never exist on any record. as weird as it sounds, you may only know my name as 9999. protocol and shit you know" said Anastagi
"strange, why our HQ didn't mention there's 422 squad?"
"as i said. never exist. see something nice and vanish next seconds? sorry it's just us doing the job"
The captain seems to get it "does the fight at the Magvel is your squad doing then?"
"no the paper said the regular did it. wonder how since they barely hold a base even with bunker and tank" lied Anastagi
Baldren didn't seems to buy it but he don't get any proof about it. He ain't dumb. He know how incompetent is the Gallia regular army himself. Had it not been his father who order him, he may fall in the disgrace pit like others. So hearing regular stopping a big tank is a big bull he ever heard. Even so, what does this squad do to get that thing stop? He wonder about this squad now.
"9999. there you are" said Imca
"ah, Ace. Ace, captain Baldren, Cap, our Ace. he's on our side and he's cool with us"
"that can wait. we got order to go back to the castle" said Imca
"oh right. how is Kurt and others?"
"they seems to catch up although not all of them reach him yet"
The captain seems surprised "what? castle!? where on earth is our squad!?" he ask in anger
"hell if i know. our captain may know something but we got split up. all we found out is the capital is in this state when we come in. you just know this shit?"
"we got report capital got attacked and regular hold them off!"
Imca shake her head "from my calculation, not much fight. it seems the capital is low on manpower. probably pushing momentum around the border"
"damn useless of them! men! order everyone we gotta go back to the castle! no straggler! move!"
The heat on the castle is intense. no single shot cease from every angle. Most of the royal squad put their effort along with 422 but the pressure is still heavy on their side. All they do is just defend the gate. But as most of war veteran aware of, sometimes defending something is harder than attack as we received more blow than thrown one.
"Kurt, this is Imca. i just regroup with 9999. we going back to castle with some company. mind the fire"
"alright. we just got our reinforcement!" said Kurt in high spirit
"eh who? Ravens?" ask Crowe
"regular perhaps"
"now that's some strange move. all of our regular are out remember? who's this guy? give me the radio" said Crowe
He tried to contact the captain. He surprised to hear from Gasernal son as he know that man is both devoted to duty and loyal. He ask why is he here and not on Anthold like everybody else. Baldren said it's just her father who goes there since he realize the capital and other territory are prone to the attack. While risking their children facing desertion, leaving capital defenseless will not sit well with his children either.
"so one of royalty still got running juice. good! now get there and help us"
The additional manpower from Gasernal family bring the whole battle to their side. The tank commander Audrey is the main player in this battle as the tank capable to fire of 5 shells in a rows each it's 3 long barrel. Realizing the attack is failed, the Imperial retreating fast and now the one who got chased by the soldier of Gasernal.
"whoa...shit. this battle of defense is all but tiring! Giulio, you better make our R&R dinner worth this!" said Felix
"shit head, let me take a breath first. damn, if we got no reinforcement, wonder how we hold out"
"it's surprise me. Commander Crowe giving us order directly is kind of different experience" said Amy
"for a gross man, he know when to get serious" said Leila
"hey now don't add me to the pigsty. anyway, i gotta check on our highness. she maybe glad to return to her boring throne. excuse me ladies" said Commander Crowe
The soldiers never been this tired before. Whole battalion of Imperial against them and only small number of help really not change the whole things. Honestly Kurt didn't get much idea around this somewhat open battlefield but thankfully commander Crowe didn't slacking type as he thought he is. Guess commander Varrot was right. They in the right hand aside from his cigar addict.
Running through the crowd, Anastagi looking for the nurse to ask how his teacher doing. She said she survived but barely if she suffer more blood loss. Carrisa nearly loss half of her blood, causing light head and ringing eardrum. Perhaps she also blackout many times and Clarissa said she somewhat losing her color. She survive, that's what Anasatagi cares now.
"Kurt. this...is unsettling" said Gusurg
"what is it Gusurg?"
"those Imperial men...they all Darcsen"
"you sure?"
"yes. we along with Gasernal unit gather them and look it for ourselves. they are Darcsen"
Kurt shake his head frustrated "how the hell they do this!? it's not Ravens does it?"
"no they wear the Imperial uniform. maybe Ravens did but who knows..."
Some royal soldiers came to them asking for Kurt "are you 07? Her majesty want to see you"
"Highness Cordelia want to see me? what is it if i may ask?"
"it's about your punishment. i don't know the detail"
Now that hit them, their cold feet return to root them in fear. Kurt sigh as he ready himself "alright...bring me to her"
As the sounds of footsteps ringing on the grand hall where the very monarch sit, it also followed by the cold marble that managed to creep on Kurt feet and spine. Every step, he thought what goes wrong but he kick it out his mind as the fault probably his. Perhaps his genius is just on the paper. When he faced the monarch, he salute as the soldier would and wait for the verdict that will be read in this very place.
"Kurt Irving, captain squad 422 also know as 07, you've been branded fail in mission in a row. as the protocol of squad 422 custom, you were punished in the form of execution on shooting post" said the advisor
"i understand"
"not just that" said the monarch
"pardon your highness?" ask Kurt
"while i don't know where this squad start as i never order such a squad built in the first place especially the rule of failure mean execution, this is fall on my account as royalty to fail my own military order. let out unregistered squad is equal as letting civil to the battle. on my honor as monarch...i beg your pardon captain"
The sudden move from her left everyone surprised even Kurt.
"on my authorities as monarch, i declare squad 422 is clear from all execution order. please think of it as thanks from the people who you just saved today captain..."
Kurt bow his head as the burden on his mind cleared up.
Meanwhile behind the doors. Crowe grin never been wider as he see the prick of his squad let out frustrated gesture.
"what's wrong General? looking for your head?" mock Crowe
"fuck you Crowe! those squad of yours is beyond forgiveness!"
"hey they save our ass here. give them credit at least a thanks" sigh Crowe
"after fail many times? i think not"
"say that to monarch if she even think to change her mind. besides, most of our failure is not by far our fault. some wacky order for example is not from me. but you. when you order someone, you better know what you planned to do next if it works or fail. you can't let god do the job for the rest of it" said Crowe "now that my squad along with Gasernal save the day, i do wonder about your right to earn that title of yours. are you sleep with advisor of something? oh, and now the monarch know who we are, i think your execute when fail order is no longer working"
"...shit! i get you guys someday!" General left in anger
Crowe sigh "heh, neither do i. i prefer my squad as a ghost. gotta tell media man to do their things. i need my squad on shade more longer"
Kurt return to his squad with the biggest smile he ever had. Once he told them they off the hook, they cheer as their fear fade away. This is after all words from the monarch herself. Nothing could change it unless she said so. As they cheer however, one man left alone in corner. Wondering what's this war has earn him.
"lost in thought 06?"
"oh, Deit...well, those men"
"you can't expect much from empire"
"but is it too far? all of it!"
"we on a war that's all i aware of. no matter how right you are, everyone here will fight till nothing left but them. maybe they use Darcsen. not surprising if they throw youngster like Amy in a bundle of brigade to fight us"
"damn Deit! don't you have any sympathy about them!?"
"those sympathy get me here! you too!" retort Deit "remember those spineless Darcsen monkey who called us fellow Darcsen is a bro!? when we got into deep trouble they fell silence! leaving us to this stink squad! enough with sympathy for me, it's survive for the fittest in the end! this empire doing? this is their way!"
"what if there's way to change that?"
"you don't think to make a stunt do you?"
"no. but i just want to know if there's any. even if it just a small hope..."
"in a war, somehow that's gonna turn into pack of lies. be careful Gusurg"
