Team FLME Volume 8

Coin Flip

After the opening, some screams of Grimm are heard until a bullhead comes into view. The ship banks to the right and fires and guns down a Nevermore. The ship continues to fly as in zooms into the cockpit to show Elsa Inverno piloting. She presses a few buttons along the top of the cockpit and fires again, taking out a small flock of Nevermores.

Elsa: Bazaar! Number?

Along the ground, Bazaar Hiltzaile is seen with the members of Team WIOW, fighting off more Grimm. He kicks one across the head and fires his crossbow at two centipede like Grimm before he looks up to the bullhead.

Bazaar: I could 250.

Elsa: Copy that!

Widow throws out her rope dart and pulls a Grimm to the ground as Willow runs past it and cuts its head off. Olive uses her semblance to have a few bits of plant life to tie down a Grimm. However, it's not much. Before the beast could attack her again, a gunshot goes off. Magnus is seen, covering Olive as Stonewall slowly backs up to him.

Magnus: Sir?

Stonewall: Keep up the covering fire. We need to hold this spot until reinforcements arrive.

Ireland: Easier said than done!

The two look over to see Ireland Sarga whack two Beowolves in the head. She flips over one and snaps its neck and Magnus shoots the other in the head.

Ireland: They just keep coming.

Stonewall: We need a different approach. Try to cut them off. At least enough to buy us some time.

Elsa could hear the chatter on comms. She looked to see the ridge where the Grimm were coming from. She banked again and fired along the ground to clear some of the huntsmen from the beasts.

Elsa: Solomon! Regen!

The side doors to the ship opened and Solomon Noir and Regen Wilhelm stepped out with their guns aimed and loaded. They fired together at the ridge, with Regen's rocket launcher doing the most damage. The walls of the ridge shattered and rocks came tumbling down, forming a barrier to keep the Grimm out a little while longer. The two then set their sights down along the ground and began to provide air support to the rest of the team.

Elsa looked down and saw that the 250 Grimm had been reduced down to a few dozen. She sighs again and signals to Solomon and Regen to jump out. They do so and leap out of the ship. Solomon forms his hammer and slams it onto the ground. Olive runs over and leaps off of the hammer and jumps onto the back of an Ursa. She jumps off of it and spins through the air and cuts the head of the monster off.

Solomon runs up and pushes the corpse up to use as a small shield against a few more Grimm. Widow runs past the shield and flips around, cutting the Grimm to pieces and clearing a path. Bazaar fired an arrow past Widow's head and killed another Grimm. He turned back and walked down the path provided and fired off at different Grimm, killing them all instantly. Bazaar looks back at the group and sees most of if not all of the Grimm had been cleared out. In doing so, he goes to an earpiece.

Bazaar: Isaac? How is the front lines?

Over the ridge, a giant pool of lava melts away at Grimm as Isaac walks through it. He unleashes two massive slashes and cuts some Grimm down. He hears rumbling and a King Taijitu emerges and lunges at him. Isaac waves his arm in front of his sword and heats it up. He yells and cuts through the mouth of the Grimm, killing it. He converts his sword into its shotgun form and shoots the severed head clean off.

Isaac spins around and fires two rounds at two more Beowolves before looking around his current setting.

Isaac: Clear. We are good to go.
