[DISCONTINUED] You're My Sun (Aarmau AU)

*Three*

The shuttle door opened, revealing a boy with black-blue hair, with a faded bleached streak across the middle of his bangs. He immediately points his gun at Melissa and Blaze, who point their guns back.

"Are you Commander Firewing? I'll take care of these mutts." He growls.

Melissa growls right back, though hers is more wolfish.

"Whoa! Calm down everyone!" I exclaim standing between them. "You must be Ein. I'm Commander Aphmau Firewing, these werewolves are with me."

He lowers his gun reluctantly.

"Yes, I'm Ein. Your here on Michael's orders, right?" He asks, turning to me.

"Yep." I reply.

"Who are your friends?" He asks.

"This is Zane and Travis. The werewolves are Melissa and Blaze." I say, pointing at them in turn. He nods.

"Follow me, I'll show you to where we've cornered the Ultima." He says.

"Your hunting the Ultima?!" Melissa whispers to me.

"Yeah, sorry about not telling you..." I whisper back. She just nods, and goes to whisper something to Blaze.

Ein stops, and points at the top of a tall hotel a little ways away.

"We've cornered him up on the top floor. The only way to get there though is through here, which is extremely exposed. He's been sniping all the soldiers down with help. Not sure who would be crazy enough to help the Ultima, but it doesn't matter. The Ultima needs to die, his helpers can be trialed." He says.

"What exactly did the Ultima do?" I ask.

"He's a dangerous creature. It doesn't matter what he's done, it's what he'll do. Your one of the best out there Firewing. We're hoping you can make it across if nothing else." He replies. I nod.

"When do we go?" Travis asks.

"Whenever your ready." Ein replies.

"Let's go then." I say. My group nods. Ein takes us over to one of the barricades.

"Be careful. That thing is dangerous." He says, before running off.

Melissa reloads her gun.

"Don't shoot me for doing this." She tells us. I give her a confused look. She stands up, and points her gun at the nearest soldier.

My eyes widen when she shoots him, and takes off running with Blaze.

"Melissa!" I exclaim, standing up. Zane pulls me to the side to dodge a bullet from above.

"Let's go!" Travis exclaims, running after Melissa and Blaze. Zane and I follow close behind.

The two of them run into the building, and the three of us follow close behind. 

Melissa runs to the elevator and pulls Blaze inside with her, pressing the button multiple times. The door closes on us, giving me barely enough time to skid to a halt instead of crashing into the door.

"Shit!" I exclaim.

"Stairs, let's go!" Travis exclaims. We start running up the stairs.

Halfway up the stairs, a large cement ball rolls down towards us.

"Sorry Commander!" Melissa yells. I look up, and see her run off.

"Get behind me!" Travis yells. Zane and I rush behind him, and he draws his sword, his skin turning ashen gray. The cement ball explodes into dust, and he turns back to his human form, switching back to his gun.
