Blackbeard POV



The two teams were sitting on the chopper we ended up leaving all but 8 of us behind to guard the base, look after Lion, and keep an eye on HEAT due to the Lion incident. Apparently, the three people that did it were found screaming their heads off and ranting about spiders, ghosts, and a demon shortly before we left none of us were complaining or felt any pity. Valkyrie, Ash, Buck, Sledge, Zofia, Ela, Scarecrow, and I all sat around the chopper checking our gear except for Scarecrow who was standing at the back of the chopper staring out the rear door which he had open the entire ride. "Starting our final descent," Jager said from the pilot's seat of the Chinook that was on loan to us by the National Guard.

Y/n's angry, really angry. I haven't really ever seen him furious like this I've seen him assert his authority through (let's just say forceful) motivation, and be angry maybe, but never furious. It was times like this that I truly was happy that Y/n was on our side, but damn if he still didn't scare the hell out of me. We were descending in the drop zone and Y/n didn't say anything for the entirety of the 45-minute flight, which wasn't out of the norm for him but he was ignoring everyone and didn't do a final equipment check except for charging his gear. He was staring out the rear door of the Chinook. I walked up to him and put my hand on his shoulder he turned to look at me with the red eyes of his mask that would be pretty scary if I didn't know he wouldn't hurt me. "Scarecrow you good?" I asked concerned. He nodded and looked back outside waiting for the chopper to land at the entrance of the university. We were about 30 feet up yet and I got close to his ear.

"Y/n, if you want to talk about it-" I started and he jumped out of the chopper "SCARECROW" I shouted and the others ran up to the door behind me and watched as Y/n freefell towards the ground. At the last second, he shot his grapnel gun at the roof and swung into a window on the second floor. Meghan(Valkyrie) and I looked at each other knowing what was happening we've never seen Y/n's "fits of anger", but we've heard about them from Meghan's(Valkyrie's) brother Cole. Apparently, sometimes Y/n flies off the handle and goes a little crazy, according to Cole it's best to leave him be. The chopper finally landed and everyone including the team for the second mission ran off. I stopped in front of everyone and turned to Ash "What're you doing?" I shouted over the sound of the helicopter.

"Scarecrow's lost it, we should help." She shouted back. I shook my head "He'll be fine I promise, but you have a mission to complete. So do we, so get going."

Ash shook her head "We shouldn't leave Scarecrow." I looked to the rescue team and towards the hospital, you could hear panicked screeches and wails constantly coming from the hospital. All of a sudden we heard a window shatter above us and a corpse of one of those early infected fell next to us twitching we stared all stared at it wide-eyed. "I'm going to say he'll be fine," I said

"Copy that," Ash said as she signaled her team to get back onto the chopper to go to her mission

I looked at my team Valkyrie, Ela, and I looked at the hospital. I took a breath and grabbed my SCAR from its sling "let's move." I said commandingly. We moved through the hospital clearing room after room and we found nothing, but corpses of the infected some were in chunks, some were cleaved in half, others had broken necks, but it was all quiet except for the occasional screech and slashing noise. We kept moving through the hospital until we came to a stop at a quarantine door that Y/n was standing in front of and was holding an infected, by the throat with his sword impaled in the floor beside him covered in blood. The infected had even more spikes on it than usual with spikes for hair and spikes instead of arms(Rooter). One of its spikes was through Y/n's shoulder but he wasn't reacting to it, instead, he reached behind him and broke the spike off and stabbed it through the skull killing it. We approached him cautiously, as he threw the infected away from him and fell to his knees. Knowing his fit was over we approached him I signaled Valkyrie and Ela to keep watch. I kneeled in front of him put my hand on his uninjured shoulder "Scarecrow you good?" I asked he didn't respond "Scarecrow?" I repeated and shook his shoulder "Y/n? Respond" I said loudly he looked at me and coughed in his mask "I'm good." He remarked, "Valkyrie this door has to have a control somewhere I'd check behind that window." He said to her pointing at a security window with a console behind it. "Ela-" Y/n started
