"Ok, Thursday, because you are the strongest of them all, might as well start the enhancement procedure with you right?" professor Montonio suggested.
"As planned, professor, I shall be first, next in line is Sunday, followed by Monday, then Friday. Wednesday, Saturday, and Tuesday, stay sharp. Troopers, protect Annie at all costs. And you, Annie, stay there, we're going to get you out of here you understand?"
"Yes, Mister Thursday." said Annie.
"Mister Thursday? Since when did you get that name of yours? Its just so funny!" Sunday commented.
"Uhhh, let her be, I mean, she is just a little girl, right? But I'll be damned if someone like Monday would treat me like a kid!" shouted Thursday.
"I wouldn't be so surprised if Tuesday here would do that! He is childish afterall!"
"Enough! We don't have much time left, Lights! If we are to stop the Phantoms then we should be proceeding with our plans right? So, do you hear me everybody?" professor Montonio said.
"LOUD AND CLEAR, SIR!" the troopers replied.
"Yes we do sir!" the Lights replied.
All was well. Thursday unexpectedly became faster, he even got his armor of nanotech.
Sunday then proceeded into the pod. It gave her massive strength afterwards. And her new Persona weapon is but a sword that took the place of her left arm, which was alright for her.
Monday's turn was up. The enhancement gave him the ability to appear wherever he wants to, somewhat like fast running, but with limitations. He gained a nanotech plating on his arms and shoulders, giving him a wider area of protection.
Then it was Friday's turn lastly. And yes, his enhancement was a success too. He now has the ability to snipe rapidly and he also got a set of moving nanotechs for protection wherever they are needed. Those nanotech are controlled by his thinking. As planned, they only enhanced four lights in the fear of being overpowered by one another, or maybe betraying each other.
All of them then headed to where the Queen Bee is docked. They encountered infected men and phantoms as well in the latter.
"Hey Thursday! You might want to show your new abilities to these phantoms mate! I can't snipe them all you see! And I'm not even supposed to fight in the night for I am a bright, mate!" Friday shouted.
"Alright then!"
With Thursday's shout, he suddenly appeared from every phantoms' back, which he killed in the latter.
"Is that good enough? And how are we even fighting if it is dark outside? Might you want to explain that, professor?"
"Well you see, to make things less complicated, the more the nanotech, the higher your survival rate is. Meaning, the more nanotech, the better. We certainly don't know the effects of adding nanotech to your bodies, but one thing is for sure, it is good." professor Montonio replied.
"So does that mean that we are, Dim Lights?"
"From how you perform right now, yes Sunday, you are Dim Lights, just stronger."
"To think that we could fight in our full potential during the night, this is kind of new to me."
"You're not the only one Thursday, I'm having a hard time sniping them down as I'm not used to this."
The Troopers took care of the infected. As they went on, hours passed as there were many phantoms and infected to take care of. Suddenly, out of nowhere ----
~Tick~ ~Tick~ ~TIck~
~ BOOM~
~BOOM!!! BOOM!!!~
"What the heck was that?" shouted Hero.
"Those were damn explosives if you ask me Hero."
"Explosives? But who'd have ANY explosives at this moment? Not even us troopers have any left??!!"
~That's because we are troopers ourselves~
"Who said that?"
~Right behind you~
As the mysterious man whispered, all troopers pointed their guns at him.
"Troopers hold your fire!"
"I guess you don't remember me anymore, Hero."
"How'd you know my name? Who are you?"
"Head of the 11th. I'm Bourne, agent Bourne if you may."
"Agent Bourne...? I don't remember anywho with that name."
"That's because my battalion was removed from the marine's platoon. We were forgotten, not even you guys would remember us. And yes, we were the ones that used those explosives."
"Why'd you do that? I mean, what are you up to with those explosives?"
"CAPTAIN BOURNE INFECTED ARE INBOUND!!!"
AAAAAAAGGGGHHHHH----
"Captain there's too many, we have to fall back!"
"I'll take care of them, Friday back me up, the rest of you, go to the hangar, and for the 11th battalion, you might as well climb in the group."
"It is my honor, Light. Now you heard what he said, Move and Fire!"
With that, all the 9th and 11th battalion lead the way, with the Lights protecting professor.
Did Thursday make the right decision about trusting the 11th? Find out on the next part.
(P.S: Sorry for the delay, hope you keep supporting! Bye for now! I'll be gone for some weeks. For the meantime, I'll prepare some chapters for you to read on. Happy Holidays :3)
