Chaos

Chapter 27

POV Madison

"Faaackk!" I pushed away the stones that were covering my body. "Cain, are you alright?" I heard some mumbling and soon Cain appeared covered in dust. "I'm okay." He said while helping me up. "I lost contact with Brooke and Hugo." He looked concerned. "We'll find them again, first we have to take out the sniper on the roof." He said while pointing to a roof where a man completely covered in black was targeting our soldiers. "Okay, we'll go there." We started walked through the hallways while ducking for incoming grenades and cursing on this damn mission. "I see cranks, cover me." I pulled out my katana and slid 2 in half while beheading the other one. "Damn woman, you're fast." Cain joked. I looked at him with a 'nowisreallynotagoodtime' face but smiled anyway. We walked on, cautious as ever. "Okay, take a left here and then...-" gunshots made me fall back and I grunted while reaching for my shoulder. I heard Cain scream and firing back. The shooting stopped and I looked around the corner to find a man with a machine gun laying on the ground. "You okay there Mad?" Cain kneeled down beside me and looked at the wound. "It's bleeding quite bad, but it only scratched you." He concluded. "Tis but a scratch!" I joked. He looked at me weirdly. "Monty Python jokes, nice." He nodded and again helped me up. We walked further and got triggered with every sound we heard. After a while we found a room with the ladder to the roof. "Just look through the scope and shoot him. Don't go up." I whispered while Cain actually did what I said. "You see him?" I was getting a bit anxious. "Yeah, got him." Just as Cain wanted to pull the trigger he got jerked up the roof by 2 men. I jumped up the ladder and crawled out onto the roof. I tackled on of the men and we fell on the ground. He got up, ready to attack when he didn't. "You're a girl." He said astound. "Quite an observation." I said sarcastic. "What are you doing with them?" Now it was my turn to be surprised. "What? What do you mean? Who is them? Who are you?" I blurted out while looking at him weirdly. "We are not the bad..- blood spat on my face while the corpse of the man dropped down. I looked behind me and saw Brooke on the other rooftop with her sniper. I gave her a thumbs up and she did it back. Cain already had taken care of the other guy and the enemy sniper and was now looking blood massacre below us. "They only killed certain people, others are kept captive." I looked from Cain to the ground and back to Cain. You're bleeding." I said while looking at his head. "It's just a fleshwound." He said smirking. "Monty Python, nice." I nodded while looking back down. "We took out their sniper and the machine gun guy, I think we have a good chance of winning. We have the element of surprise." He looked at me. "Can you tell Brooke that she covers us while us and Hugo go down there?" I looked at him with a 'areyoufuckingkiddingme' face. "What do you think? That Brooke and I have this magical telepathy that we can understand each other without words?" "I.. uhhh... I thought...-" "Because you're absolutely right." I took my flashlight and put it on the ground so it was shining on me. I waved at Brooke, made a sniper sign and pointed to the ground. Then I hold up my hand and put up three fingers, after that I pointed to Hugo, Cain and myself and then to the ground. Brooke put her thumb up as I did the same. "What did just happen?" Cain looked absolutely mindfucked. "We are going to attack in 3 minutes, so we better tell everyone else." We quickly got our stuff and made are way down the ladder. We ran through the building and bumped into the Delta team. "Where is your squad leader?" the other leader asked. "Dead sir, the plan is to attack the enemy in less than one minute. Tell the others!" Cain said clearly. "Was this the plan of your leader?" Cain looked at me and back. "Yes sir." We walked on and reached the edge of the soon to be battlefield. 10 seconds. Cain looked at me. "Now!" a sudden voice rang through the air and from everywhere soldiers ran into the open space with the captives. The now panicked civilians ran around searching for cover while I had already put down 3 guys. The familiar sound of Brooke's sniper filled my body with confidence. Because of the sudden attack the assailants were not able to go for a tackle back. Not even after 10 minutes we had won over the attackers. "Leave some of them alive! The general wants them for questioning!" a squad leader yelled. I walked around the battlefield to find a man covered in black gasping for air. I looked at him. "You.. you are... wrong." He gasped for air while pressing a hand on his chest. "You.. don't...know.." I raised a brow. "Know what?" I squatted next to him. "The... truth..." his final breath send shivers down my spine. I got up and walked towards Cain. "You look happy about winning this thing." He said sarcastic. I clenched my jaw and saw Brooke walking through the with blood drenched field. "C'mon. I really wanne get the fuck outta here." I said while nudging Cain to come with us. When we got at our jeep we saw Sam carrying someone on a stretcher. "Sam need help?" Hugo offered. "No, I'm coming with you guys." He helped the person into another jeep and then climbed into ours. Cain hit the side of the jeep 2 times as a sign that we could leave. And so we did. We were peacefully driving through the night. "The next time, I want cranks. Not humans. This was horrific." I said while wiping blood of my face. "True that. It felt really wrong." Hugo said while looking at every single one of us. "That's indeed what it felt like Hugo. Wrong." Brooke assented. "This guy on the rooftop. He wanted to say something. Before you shot him in the head with your sniper." I jokingly said to Brooke. She put her hands up in the air. "Sorry not sorry." I grinned. "He said that 'they were not he bad...' and then he died." I looked at Brooke. "You think he was trying to say that they were not the bad guys?" Hugo asked. "I don't know." "Come on guys, it has been a rough night. Let's not jump to conclusions now." Sam said while yawning. "True, but something is not okay here..." 

Whoops hehe
