When I opened my eyes it was to an ungodly loud noise. The sound of people yelling and the distinct sound of sword clashes. I sat up which caused the other four girls to sit up too. We all looked at each other for a second before we all sprang up to get clothes and armor.

By the way their reacting, this isn't how the day was supposed to start. I slipped on the jeans and hoodie that I always seem to end up in when I jump to a new universe. I slipped on my shoes as the girl who slipped me the note came over to me.

She was in full battle armor made of gold and silver lined patterns. On the back was a very impressive set of wings. They looked to be made of gold but they moved like regular skin and bone. Her name was Sigrun.

"We will enter the Battle. We are the Valkyries, the queens personal guard and we will require you're assistance. This is most like the Chatarians" she spit as she said the last part.

I looked at the other three and saw they had similar armor to her. These girls were a handful for sure. I stood up looking down at my "armor".

"Not exactly fit for combat but I'm fast. I think I can handle it. Let's do this!" I said with a smirk. She smiled and we all headed for the entrance.

Sigrun flapped her wings and the flap blew up as we walked into the alley. What waited us was horrifying. A large group of shambling corpse's were in the most of combat in a smaller group of soilders.

"These.... things my lady! They're Franklin's powers!" One of the Valkyries said readying herself for combat.

"Indeed. Kara you fan out and survey how far they've progressed into the city.
Gunnr you fan out as well and even the odds in unfair fights. Eir you head straight for the kings court and ensure the fight there stays at a standstill until we clean up the city a bit. You know your roles! Scatter!" The three Valkyries all flapped their wings and soared into the skies! They shot out in three directions.

Sigrun looked to me and drew two swords. She handed one to me. She looked forward at the battle in front of us.

"You say you're fast... Prove it." She gave me a look that I never saw last night. Her eyes were pure determination. I smiled at held the sword up.

"If you want to see my speed, then I need to show you one of my other abilities. You have wings so you can't judge too much." I tossed the sword above the building line. Before it could reach its Apex I shifted into action.

As I took a step towards the crowd my body started to disperse! My body came apart by each small piece of me. I came apart into a nanite swarm! I could see everything still and it was so much faster. I raced for the zombies and drove so many holes in them they were ripped apart on a molecular level!

The sword hit it's apex and started to fall

I made sure to not hit any breathing humans. I saved one for special show. As I reformed I delivered a shot to a zombies stomach that sent him flying. I dispersed and reformed my hand over palming his skull like a basketball. I fully reformed and slid to a stop next to Sigrun.

I caught the sword and smiled at her. She was looking at me in shock. I crushed the zombies skull which sent brain matter and bone spraying ilonto the alley floor and walls. 

"Told you I was fast." I said with confidence. Her shock turned to a sly smile and she chuckled.

"Jesse you're to enigmatic for your own good." With that we ran out of the alley and the soilders followed us. As we broke the alleyway we saw just how bad it was. These things were everywhere.

"This isnt good. The infected have made a large progress Into the city! How'd they get in?!" She sounded worried.

"Who's this Franklin guy?" She looked at me with worry.

"Franklin of the undead infection. Hes the Chatarians third in command but he isn't a pushover. He commands a bioweapon that reanimates corpse's under his will. He is an extreme threat." She said this before a large group broke into the road clearing.

"You take care of these guys. I'll go have a chat with Franky boy." I said as I jumped to the roof tops.

Sigrun rushed forward and collided with the large group and some of the infected exploded on her impact with them. She's fine here. I'll get to finding the undead nightmare. I jumped from building to building seeing people fighting those things. They were putting up a good fight but they were outnumbered.

As I got to the main square I saw the cause of all of this. A huge man was standing in the center with a green aura coming off him. His face was skeletal and his body was a dark purple. His muscles were almost visible like his skin was thin. This is a dead ringer.

I jumped down to him and he turned and smiled at me. This is how they got in. He walked in before summoning his army. Smart.

"Who might you be? I've never seen you before insect." His voice was deep and gravely.

"Because I'm not from around here skeletor. What's the deal with you? You look more like a corpse then a fighter." I held the sword up ready to use it.

"You're an arrogant one! I'll rip the flesh from your bones with my own hands." His aura raged as he dashed forward. His punch hit me before I could even think of reacting.

I flew back and the sword flew up and stuck into the ground! Franklin was suddenly before me and he grabbed me by the neck! My legs swung around and he slammed me Into the ground! The ground shattered under me. The pain was immense!

He picked me up and slammed me over and over. Each hurting more then the last. Finally he tossed me up into the air! Then he brought the big guns! He grabbed my ankle and launched me back down into the ground! I SLAMMED into a building and bounced back into the square. He then rocketed into me and his feet both landed square Into my back!

My vision blurred for a second. How is he so fast! He's this fast and HE'S THIRD IN COMMAND?! This might have been a mistake. Need backup right about now. However they were more likely occupied.

I forced my arms under me but Franky wasn't done. He flipped me over and punched me in the face and my head drove back into the ground. He followed it up with another that was equally as hard. Blow after blow and the pain was getting stronger. My vision blurred again.

"Do you see now! Your arrogance will bring you a painful death!" He cackled at me

"S-s-stop" Blow after blow

"Nobody can withstand the Chatarians wrath! NOBODY!" blow after blow

"Enough" blow after blow

"This blow is. your. End."

"I SAID THATS ENOUGH!!!!!!" I braced my arm behind me and caught his final blow! He stared at me in bewilderment!

My nanites were leaking from my body and pooling on the ground off my face and body. I am done with this guy! I'm going to make him suffer! He tried to pull away but I gripped his fist so hard his hand exploded into a mesh of bone and blue blood!

He screamed and backed away in agony. I got to my feet and as I did my nanites swarm started raging around me! I looked up at him as my body was partially manifested.

"I'll make you suffer." I said as Franklin looked at me in horror.

I punched him in the face so hard I felt bone crack under my fist! I swarmed behind him and gave him a kick to the back and he flew backwards again. I repeated this process. Pinballing him around through the air so many times I lost count! I kicked him into the air and swarmed back to the sword!

I swarmed back up above him and threw the sword so hard it sent him flying back down to the ground! He screamed as he fell and was pinned to the center of the square by the blade. He gripped at it but he wasn't strong enough to pull it out. I rocketed down feet first so hard that his skull splattered into mush when I made contact. His body went limp.

I stood there in a daze. My nanites reformed into my body and I stumbled backwards catching myself. Need to push myself a little further.... People need my help. Have to.....

My body stopped responding. My vision blurred as I landed face down on the ground. I struggled to hold on. Against my efforts, the world went Black.
