.......................................................................

It's dark and cold, the Darkness consumes the light and sound until a light came in and said. "I promised you a happy ending."A random voice said as the bright light appears blinding any vision, it suddenly showed numbers in dark red ...........812 LEFT.

“Okay everyone let’s do this!” Freya said in determination.

She suddenly noticed Michelle looking down on the grassy floor, "Michelle?". Freya called, Michelle noticed Freya's attention then a sudden flick hits Michelle's forehead "Gah!" Michelle stuttered rubbing her forehead.

"Focus Michelle! WE! ARE! A! TEAM! I told you that, so don't look sad on us, ok?" Freya said offering her a handshake.

Michelle accepted a handshake and said "Ok."

Then Plius Mimicked Freya "YOU! ARE! ANNOYING! AND NOIS-"

"DON'T YOU DARE COMPLETE THAT SENTENCE!!!" Freya interrupted Plius, Michelle made a cute giggle that made the 2 blush.

So they continued going onward to the forest, Michelle felt uneasy expecting something will soon go wrong.

"Hey, Michelle, after we're done, let's swim ok." Freya said giving a thumbs up, in response Michelle nodded with a smile.

The 3 Begun to venture out in the forest they went deeper and deeper until it went all shady,

“Plius, did you find the target?”

“Sorry, negative." Plius responded in a whisper.

They continued deeper until they reached a dark swamp, filled with vines hanging upon the withered like trees where only few lights illuminate, a large pool of swampy mire bubbles in front of them.

“careful everyone, don’t fall in that mud,” Plius warned them making them nod.

They all begun to look around until……

Michelle saw a green thick vine hanging on the tree that was almost expected as a Leviserpant, so she ignored it. Plius saw the Leviserpant on the tree, wrapped around the branch, seeming like its resting.

Plius shushed the two and aimed his Rifle to the Leviserpant. He focuses his aim and placed his finger on the trigger, he pulled it and came out a soft "Pew!" , It hit the Leviserpant's body making it fall off the branch, it fell on the bush making the 3 prepare for it, then suddenly it emerged out of the bush at a fast speed. the Leviserpant quickly charged targeting anyone near it. Freya quickly rolled from its path, then next is Plius, it targeted Plius’ Face making him bend his body backward then does a backflip nearby the tree, it targeted Michelle next but before it can be wrapped around her, she activated an orange Bracelet that surrounded herself with an energy field, it electrocuted the snake making it recoiled, landing nearby the mire.

"Freya! Aim for the head!" Michelle Informed her, Freya nods putting out a saber blade under the rifle making a bayonet.

Freya charged in passing by the Leviserpant's neck, it hissed as she passed  her blade beneath the leviserpant's head

The Leviserpant's head fell off from its body spurting out green blood out of its neck, "Easy kill!" Freya shouted cheerfully but unknowingly both her feet are stuck in the mud, she begins to sink "umm...guys a little help." Freya called as her knees sink down.

"Let's go Freya," Plius said as he turns around leaving Freya behind.

"What about Frey-"

"We're leaving." Plius interrupts and winked at her. Michelle wants to join the fun so she goes with it.

"Come on guys! You know it will be hard to wash this off!" Freya said as her arms sink in and her chest touching the muddy mire.

"You're not really letting me drown in this mud..." Her shoulders submerged in the mud, "COME ON THIS ISN'T FUNNY!!!!!" Freya shouted as the Birds fly away from there trees.

They finally came back to the ship returning with muddy Freya and a red marked slap on Plius' face, Freya Scolded him and gave him a Punishment, doing the whole laundry especially Freya's muddy suit.

Michelle doesn't want Plius to do the chores, in fact, she feels sorry, while for Freya she Resists the urge to be sorry nor to feel pity to Plius.

Freya Promised to swim with Michelle by the nearby lake, so they changed into their Swimsuits, Freya wears a Blue-Striped Bikini and Michelle wears a Blue Sukumizu ( a Japanese Swimsuit for girls.) With her name template on her chest.

"CANNONBALL!!!" Freya Shouted as she dived into the warm crystal cleared lake. "Haaa~ the Lake so warm." She said as she relaxes on the lake and washes the mud out of her body, "Come on Michelle!" Freya called.

"Coming!" Michelle came out of the ship Holding her donut shaped Floaty and a huge Beach ball that is covering her face. Thanks to her passive skill, Being a Klutz, she tripped on the gap making her fall to the lake leaving a floaty float without the Floater and the beach ball flying upon the air, then once Michelle Surfaced her head out of the water The Beach Ball Bounced on Michelle's head, making Freya Laugh, She checked on Plius' reaction but gave no expression, but washes the laundry like an ordinary routine.

She forgot she gave him a punishment she looked away trying not to grab his attention, but then she saw Michelle's Sad sorry blue eyes, Freya suddenly felt sorry but gave no choice but invite him. "Hey, Plius! Why not come here and swim." She said waving her hands to him

"I'm Busy," Plius said expressionlessly.

"Come on Plius! You're already Forgiven why not you forget that and swim with us."

"I'm Busy." He said again scrubbing Freya's Muddy vest.

"Hmpf! As the leader of the C.A.T.s, I ordered you to swim with us and do that later." Plius has no idea how to respond, instead, he smiles. (he rarely smile)

Plius stood up then enters the ship, in after a minute, Plius came out wearing his white tank top, ponytailed hair and remained in his Blue jeans.

"Heh?" Freya said looking at him in confusion.

"What's the problem?" Plius asked raising his Brow.

"Still with the tank top?" Freya said in concern.

"Why I liked it,"

"Come on Plius! We're all Girls here." Michelle said cheerfully.

"So," Plius said Annoyed.

Freya surfaced out of the water then steeping on the grassy land, then she went behind him, and attacked him from behind, wrapping her arms around him.

"Hey let me go!" Plius said struggling to remove Freya's inhuman strength. " not until you show you Beautiful body."Freya began to reaching his tank top below him, she accidentally grabbed Plius' Crotch "Hey don't touch me there!" They both continued to struggle and Michelle does nothing but watch.

Luckily for Plius, Freya weighs 64kg so she's easy to carry, making plius Walk Backwards diving to the lake. Freya emerged from the lake putting out Plius' Tank top in the air "I Got Plius' Tank top!" Freya giggled spinning Plius' tank top in the air, Plius Emerged from the water soaking wet "Umm...Freya...Can I have my tank top, please? it's really cold." Plius Blushed Holding his Bandaged bulging Chest revealing his Cleavage, But in fact, Plius is A female.

"Plius...You're Blushing?" Freya eyes widen as she saw Plius rarely Blush. "YOU'RE SO CUTE!!!" Freya said as she can't control her feeling, so she hugged Plius but then she got pushed away by her, "I should have left you in that mud." Plius said Glaring at her with a scary glare, she surface out of the water entering back to the ship then switching back to her Boyish style again.

Freya felt Guilty, remembering that Plius Disguised herself as a male, so no Male can flirt with her and because she's Nervous around males.

Freya Felt her heart Heavy as she saw Plius sat down and continues washing the Clothes. Michelle Swam near her "Talk to her." Freya sighed and exited the lake feeling a cold breeze below her waist.

The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

"Umm....im sorry Plius," Freya said nervously.

Plius started at her blankly and said, "fine you are forgiven." She said sighing.

"Anyway were even."

"Even?" Freya asked.

Plius puts out a blue striped panty "is this yours?" Plus asked, Freya looked down her waist seeing her naked crotch, "Hey How did You Get that!? Give it back!" Freya said covering her crotch "Catch me if you want it back." Plus said starting to run.

"Hey!" Freya started to chase Plius, as Plius' speed is fast as a cheetah, making Freya unable to chase her, they both circle around the ship, then Plius Juked Freya left to right making Freya's soft Booty Bounce.

Michelle watches them chase each other like cats and dogs until she felt a growl in her stomach, she felt hungry and so she exited the lack and Stopped Plius' path, "I'm hungry." Michelle said rubbing her stomach.

In Plius' Distraction, Freya Quickly Grabbed Her panty out Of Plius' hands, panting as she breathes for Air "I.....haaa....got it. "Freya tiredly said.

Freya wears her panty then noticing Michelle Hungry. "Ok guys lets head back to the I'll prepare Lunch," Freya said as the 3 head back to the ship and prepared lunch.

After they finished eating, they went out again with their gear they explored the planet named "Gib" its a planet known to be the Most explored Planet Known to Mercenaries, Artifacts, Treasures, and Mythical Creatures.

Mythical Creatures are creatures that carry Artifacts and some corpses of mythical creatures are left buried the soil And in the night There are rumors about ghosts haunting the planet and Mercenaries Disappearing in the dark, so you need a light source to keep yourself safe against the darkness.

Then in 7 Hours, the 3 has no luck on finding Artifacts nor treasures.

"No luck!" She said as she looks at the sky, seeing the sun Going down, "ok let's head back to the ship." Plius said As the 3 quickly equipped their flashlights.

Meanwhile outside the atmosphere of Gib................

A different crew and a different ship are being chased.

an Armada Of Black and red spaceships began to chase a small space ship containing 5 living Mercenaries.

"THIS IS JONATHAN, A MASTER RANKED MERCENARY WERE ARE ATTACKED BY BLACK SCAR! I REPEAT WE ARE ATTACKED BY BLACK SCAR!!" The bearded man in said talking through the radio in distress.

"WE'RE GONNA DIE!" the red headed girl said ducking down.

"Don't worry Kona! We'll survive!" The black haired guy said comforting her.

The ship continued dodging incoming projectiles behind, they saw a nearby planet or known as "Gib".

" Let's land there quickly!" The man in white said commanding the pilot and pointing at the planet. "Yes, sir!" The muscled Pilot said.

The ship maneuvered the incoming lasers until.......Inside the ship of the black and red mother ship.

"Target lock sir! Ready on your order sir." A red and dark trooper said waiting for the captain's response.

"Fire." The general said in his dark and black suit, the trooper pressed the red button, firing a Heat sinking Missile that targeted the fleeing ship, it hits the back of the ship turning into black smoke and flames.

"WE'RE HIT!" The man muscled pilot said.

The flickering red light began to illuminate the fleeing ship's control deck losing control of the space ship, the space ship began to fall to the atmosphere of Gib turning into flames and crashing into the trees.

Then in up above the atmosphere, inside the mothership, the trooper said: "the mercenaries have been eliminated, sir."

"Not yet, they're still alive." The General said commanding the small ships to land in that planet.

Meanwhile at the crash landed Fleeing ship.......

It is almost night time, The black haired man dragged out the red-haired girl out off the ship, seeing that the red-haired girl unconscious before he returned to the ship to save more of his companions, the ship exploded in flames pushing The black haired man away with burns, burning some of his cloth off, he impacted by the tree making him cough blood, he landed face first kissing the dirty floor he turned around, looking at the unconscious red-haired girl.

The red-haired girl breathes softly, looking at his only best friend.

He stands up and looks at the burning ship, his breathing Companions are burning inside. Yet he hasn't saved other lives except one.

"Anyone help! Is someone there!" The man screams for help looking around in the forest. He saw 3 running lights coming close to him making him expect that his enemies are looking for them.

He dragged his best friend and hides behind the giant boulder.

"Woah! that's a burning ship."

He heard a female voice, peeking his head to look in big surprised, he saw a short pink haired girl, long brown-haired girl and a long purple haired man.

It's Plius, Freya and Michelle

He sees them as mercenaries, but he feels uneasy.

"Freya do you think there a people inside." The Michelle asked, "umm.....yes." The brown-haired girl answered, expectedly named to be Freya.

Plius stared intensely to the giant boulder, in "his" vision Plius saw footprints and dragging tracks heading behind the rock.

Plius puts outs his Rifle, "whoever is behind that rock, show yourself!" The Plius said pointing his rifle.

The black haired man came out raising his hands, "help...us.." He falls down unconscious back first.

His 1st-degree burns can be seen in front of them, to double check Plius Checked behind the boulder seeing a red-haired girl.

Having no choice but to help them, Michelle Healed their wounds by using her orange bracelet, Plius carried the Red-haired girl and Freya Carried the black haired man.

As the sun goes down the 3 quickly runs to the space ship, they finally reached the ship and head inside before night comes.

10 minutes later.......

The red and black troopers reached the crashed site wielding a flashlight, they search around the burned ship seeing no survivors, "sir! the ship is cleared there are no living Mercenaries." The trooper said saluting to him.

"......." The general is silent, looking at the dark forest. "Somethings wrong general Black Scar?" The trooper asked.

The General looked at the trooper making the trooper a slight jump." tomorrow we'll continue finding those Mercenaries."

"But sir We-" the General stared at him intensely, Giving a powerful headache making him fall to the ground Screaming, "AAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!" The trooper said holding his head.

"I will not tolerate to Ignorance!." General Black Scar said.

"Sorry, sir!Sorry, sir!" He kneeled in front of him begging for his life.

The general looked at the other troopers looking at him making them terrified of him.

"Head back to the ship! We'll search for mercenaries Tomorrow." He said commanding the troopers.

"And you!" The general looked at the trooper that is kneeling on the floor, he grabbed his flashlight and said" you stay here no matter what if you come back to the ship without my orders...... I'll kill you." He said smiling menacingly to him.

He teleported away with his troopers except 1, that he stayed to patrol.

The cold night surrounds the trooper, he has no light to illuminate his surrounding except using his night vision sight that it's installed in his helmet, he heard the bush rustled, before he looked at the rustled bush he puts out his gun and aim, but then he sighted a monstrous sight, so terrified that he can't move, the monster large teeth and glowing red eyes and his shadowy body is only been seen, the man screamed as it gnawed him to death, ripping his organs and eating his insides, the only remaining body part that monster left, is his head terrified in fear.
