Well... we survived somehow. The trees managed to break the plane's fall, resulting in Rody and I being mostly uninjured. The both of us had a few bruises and scrapes, but nothing too substantial.

    "What now?" The brunette asked. I walked out of the plane, before hoisting myself on the roof and sitting there. "What?! You're not just gonna sit around while your friends are fighting, are you?!"

    "Of course not," I huffed. "It would be a problem if that archer goes after them. She's been a pain in our asses from day one, so I think it's safe to assume that there will be people equal or above her power level inside of the actual building. Taking her out will be one less obstacle. Plus, I can't just feed you to the bears."

    "Uh, there aren't any bears on this island..."

    "Damn."

    "What's that supposed to mean?!"

    "Just wait inside the plane." I rolled my eyes. "The last thing I need is for you to get shot on my watch." Or for you to learn of my secret identity, who you probably never heard of.

    Hesitantly, Rody went back inside, just as I had ordered. Blood was already dripping from my right elbow. Now, time to wait.

-Three Minutes Later-

    The breeze rustled leaves all around me, making it hard to determine where a human could be hiding. Though I can afford getting shot, I'd rather avoid it.

    And there it was, a bright flash of green, whizzing right by my head.

    "Um, I think you missed," I sarcastically spouted. The archer revealed herself from the bushes that faced my back. "What are you, an idiot? What kind of sniper just reveals themself before taking out their target?!"

    "I'm only asking you once." Her tone sounded emotionless and weary. She must've just been to someone with a healing quirk. This might be the best opportunity to take her down. "Hand over the case, and I might just spare you two."

    I giggled, as I hopped off of the plane, meeting the green haired girl face to face. "Oh yeah? What about my other friends?" If I can stall for a few more seconds, my Hecate will be fully formed and ready to fire.

    "They're in Master Flect's territory, so they deal with him now."

    "Oh, that makes sense."

    "Stop avoiding the question!"

    "Okay! Okay!" I held my hands up, covering the view from my elbow. "Y'know, it's a shame. We could've been besties if you'd joined our side. It's rare to see people with sniping quirks like ours nowadays."

    "Wait, you-" Instinctively jumping back, the woman got down on one knee, firing one of her arrows.

    *Boom* My needle bullet flew through the short distance between the two of us, splitting the arrow in half, and lodging itself in between her C1 and C2 bone, causing her to topple over. Stepping over her limp body, I collected all of her arrows, before snapping and tossing them to the side.

    "You have skill, I'll give you that." Using some rope that I had gotten from the plane earlier, I began to tie the woman to a tree. "It's a shame though. Arrows can't beat bullets." Done with my mini-battle, I walked over to the door of the metal contraption, knocking on it. "You can come on out now, I won."

    "Has it even been five minutes?" Rody tipped his head out of the frame, his eyes widening at the sight of the archer, who was visibly uninjured. "Did you girls even fight?"
