Heaven in the middle of the battlefield

Heaven in the middle of the battlefield

We ran straight into the enemy barracks while they were still in panic and amazed, using guns to kill all the enemies in our way or sight. Gunshots sounded like fireworks rang from the sides as I saw a lot of commandos soldiers.

Without hesitation, I used my rifle and shot them straight in the head, not showing any guilt or pity. We are no different from bloodthirsty animals now as the air force is still bombarded with bombs, ploughing through the barracks and the forest.

Not to be left behind. We head straight into the barracks, jump over the fence and plough through the enemy formation while they're trying to regroup and fire back. Commando's soldiers fired back from every direction, the tents, the woods and in the middle of the barracks in the hopes of hitting one of us.

The air force still dropped its bombs on the ground while I didn't have much time. Immediately I separated from the group and ran towards the large green tent on the left despite the bombs exploding like meteors colliding with the earth:

-"Be right back!!!!" I shouted.

Flatline: "K-Kyt!!! Where are you going?!?!"

Flatline screams but the sound of the bombardment was so loud that my ears were whirring, I couldn't hear anything. I felt death like a ghost as if it would catch me if I slowed down or gave up as all I can do is run as fast as I can and pray for some god or miracle to come and help me, protect me from the ghost and bombs.

I don't care about the enemy from both sides trying to stop me from reaching the tent. I don't care if the defender force shouting my name and tries to kill those who try to stop me as I also don't care if a bullet is fired from the forest side, grazing my cheek. All I want and risk is to go to that green tent as fast as I could.

It is now no different than a door to second life, a heaven amid a raging battlefield. It felt like Akher, the god of hell, was testing my stamina and spirit before I reached the arms of Asyja, the goddess of protection.

I used my rifle and shot all the enemies blocking the way. I don't care where I shoot, as long as they get out of the way, I'm like an energetic beast and the tent is prey. I'm hunting and definitely won't let the prey escape:

Commando soldier: "DA'T 'N RIN YAED KIN AETNA' NYI NITN!" A soldier yells from the left.

-"SHUT UP TYVRIK DOGS!!! GLORY FOR ASYJA!!!" I roared as loud as I could, nearly ruining my whole throat as blood coming out my mouth.

A commando soldier was standing in front of me and hadn't noticed me yet. Immediately and without hesitation, I pulled out the knife I kept under my wrist and charge straight to him:

-"URAAAAAAA!!!!!"

Commando soldier: 'Wy-"

Without hesitation, I stabbed the knife straight into the soldier's throat. The commando gazes at me with a look of distress and fear while I look him right in the eyes with the eyes of a beast. He screamed before I pushed him away. Suddenly his body exploded, his corpse turned into a mass of phlegm, his blood expelled all over me and my weapons.

A bomb from the airstrike hit him, but before I could blink and react to what happened, another bomb behind me exploded, causing me to startle and fall to the ground.

I cough up to blood as I quickly stand up and run forward. I forgot Akher was still chasing me, no way I'll offer my soul to the dead god Noneas!!

-"YOU HEAR ME, NONEAS?!?! NEVER!!!"

I ran straight into the green tent without knowing what was inside, but I prepared my weapons and mentality to go in and fight the enemy hiding in the tent to take away valuable information. I felt extremely relieved and protected by the goddess Asyja when I entered the tent.

But the relief feeling didn't last long when I ran into someone. I fell to the ground and groaned before I could feel the pain in my ass, I heard a female voice shouting in the tent, the scream grew louder after that.

Just when I opened my eyes, I saw a soldier running up to me, holding a Salvo rifle with A7 or A9 bayonet in her hand. She charges with full speed to me, I scream and quickly dodge before she stabs me between my legs.

I immediately stood up, ran around the tent like a thief that just got caught by a crazy topless woman with only her bra and an assault rifle in her hand. She shoots a few rounds at me, I dodge and hide behind a table, cocks my rifle and stands up to fire back.

But before I could do that, she came to me and hit me in the stomach. I groan in pain as I take a few steps back. I lost my direction as my eyes were blurred while she kept hitting me. I stepped back and tried to focus when I couldn't do anything. She grabbed my neck and threw me on the table like a dog.

I screamed in pain and rolled off the table, grabbed a bottle on the floor and threw it at her while taking my secondary and shooting her. She got shot in the leg but is still charging at me. I dodge her attack and kick her stomach. She falls on the ground as I grab another bottle and throw it at her head, blood coming out her head as she faints away.

I breathed a sigh of relief, walking around the tent to search for valuable information. I keep coughing blood as I walk, I ruined my voice so hard that my throat doesn't want to make any sounds anymore when I talk or groan. There was a cabinet in the corner of the tent, but it's locked:

Krugz: "Oh my fucking god!"

I turned around and saw Krugz walk into the tent and look at the female soldier, then look at me. He seems shocked and surprised, walks to me and asked in a worried tone:

Krugz: "Hey, you okay?!?!"

I want to say I'm fine. But when I try to speak, I immediately cough up blood again. Krugz shocked and tapping my shoulder:

Krugz: "Hey, hey. It's okay. I understand that you are still okay," he said calmly, trying to calm me, then he looks at the cabinet, "you want me to open it?"

I look at him as I nod. I felt like I was useless when I couldn't say a word. For some reason, Mute can still converse with others when he doesn't say a word when he joins this force.

I grabbed the rifle and stood up, looked around while waiting for Krugz to open the safe.

Feeling like time has stopped, I can see the bullets fired by both the enemy and us outside the tent as I tighten the grip on the rifle. The air force still attacked the barracks though not as much as 10 minutes ago or so, it exploded like fireworks, the sound was so loud that my ears were still buzzing. The fear is still inside me, even though Asyja is protecting me from the explosions and bullets.

I aim the rifle around and shoot a few rounds to the tent wall. It hit a few enemies but not much, the purpose is to buy more time for Krugz and kill time for me while waiting for him to open the safe.

I became more and more impatient but said nothing. I finally heard the safe opening behind me and immediately turned around and walked towards Krugz, he took a lot of folders out of the safe and examined them one by one quickly before takes a folder to have a "Top Secrets" sign and handed to me:

Krugz: "The rest are not relevant. Come," he said as he stood up and ran out of the tent as I followed after.

Before I left, I looked at the female soldier with a guilty look and at her white bra. Shouldn't have thrown that bottle at her face though... Anyway, I left the tent and ran to the defender team as fast as I could. When I ran to them, Odyn looked at me, then at Krugz:

Odyn: "You guys have it?"

Krugz: "Yes. Retreat," he said as he looked at me, I nod and sign, telling the attackers as well, "okay, I got it. Krugz here, Kyt is still safe, but not sounds. Retreat confirmed."

I frown and punch Krugz at his arm. He chuckles, looked at me with laughing eyes:

-"You like t-to i-irritate m-me or w-what??" I have to make a lot of effort to pronounce every word as I cough again.

Odyn: "Chill out, Oskar. At least you are still breathing and have some stuff back," he said calmly.

-"At least you can give me a compliment?"

Eyes: "Oskar!! You FUCKING idiot!!!", Eyes screams in the radio, "you know how FUCKING stupid you are to break out of the group and run away like an FUCKING asshole in the middle of a battle full with BOMB AND BULLETS while the enemy can SKEWER your FUCKING brain?!?!?!"

I don't know what to say, just laugh awkwardly and look at the folder:

Finka: "Eyes, don't yell at him like that. Oskar, don't be such an idiot and don't do that anymore. Let's go back to the base. Sen 5, Al 1. Target destroyed, mission complete."

Alpha 1: "Roger."

I slowly nod as we run, leaving the barracks with a big mess behind.
