[Echo POV]

"Reu...."(Elli)

Elli slowly walked to where Reuton's body was laying and crouched down beside him...

She put one of her fingers in his neck...

I look at Ragas...

"Ragas!"(Echo)

"I know!"(Ragas)

The two of us aimed our guns at where Reuton was sent flying...

The glass was broken but...

Bang!bang!bang!

I heard gunshots coming from inside...

"Ggggaaaaahhhh!!!"(???)

We heard a scream over there...

And then we saw another window beside it broke and the shattered glass falls to the ground where we are... 

We saw blood splatter on the shattered glass on the ground...

We looked up and saw a body dangling at the edge of the broken window well haft of its body...

"Is that Rug?"(Echo)

"Yeap, that's him...."(Ragas)

Then...

CRASH!

Someone was sent flying out of the control room from the broken window...

Trup!

And it fell in front of us...

It's...

"Ugh!ahhh...."(Fortra)

"Fortra!"(Echo)

I and Ragas ran to where he was but he then raises his hand to us to stop...

"Don't! Hurry up and get out of here!"(Fortra)

"But!"(Ragas)

"Just get out of- AGGHHH!"(Fortra)

Booom!

Something jump from the control center and land on Fortra body...

We aimed our flashlight and guns at it and saw...

"What the hell is that?"(Ragas)

It was a humanoid robot and it was holding a bloody katana...

The humanoid robot has full black body armor with a V sign attached to its head...

"Get out! just get out of!-"(Fortra)

Before Fortra can finish his speak the robot raises its katana and decapitated Fortra's head...

After it decapitated Fortra it looks at us and walks slowly to us...

Not good...

"Fire!"(Echo)

Tatatatatatatatata!

Tatatatatatatatata!

Ragas and I started firing our guns at it...

But the bullets...

Slice!cling!slice!plang!ping!

The bullets were sliced up into two by the robot's katana, some of the bullets hit the armor but it bounces and didn't even dent it...

This is bad...

Really bad...

I look at Ragas...

"Ragas! Get Elli and blow that gate up fast! I'll deal with this myself!"(Echo)

"Are you crazy! You see what that thing did to the others!?"(Ragas)

"Don't worry I got a plan!"(Echo)

He looks at me silently before he nodded at me and ran to where Elli was...

She was still on the ground laying beside Reuton's body...

"Hey, Elli stop thinking about it! We got to move!"(Ragas)

"B-but!"(Elli)

"Just move!"(Ragas)

The two of them then ran towards the gate and I stayed here with the robot in front of me...

Well, might as well say maybe an android at this point because it's humanoid?...

Ting!....

Its eyes glow brightly and I raise my gun at it...

"I haven't tried my skill yet but I guess I have to do it to buy enough time for them to blow the gate up..."(Echo)

Wooonng.....

The Android looks at me...

As I readied myself for its attack...

It launches at me by jumping forward to where I was...

I then used my skill...

I said it with a small voice...

"[Presence concealment]"

My body then turns transparent and I jump to the side and move to its back...

The android blade misses me and then it started looking around...

This is not the first time I used this skill, I had a couple of tries before but still, it's hard to use this skill...

I aimed my gun at its back...

And pulled the trigger...

Tatatatatatatatata!

Ting!plang!pan!pang!

But it didn't even dent it at all...

Seriously what is that armor made of even its back can deflect the bullets?...

The Android looks behind but I quickly take cover somewhere and it didn't see me so it then started looks around again...

I let my breath out a bit and was about to take a step but then...

Ting!

Swing!

The android trow its katana at me suddenly and I quickly jump back...

Trrinnnnggg!

The katana hit the ground in front of where I jump, and the katana manages to grace me a bit on my shoulder, and my skill deactivates from that...

I look at the android and quickly aimed my gun again but I was too slow...

The android rush to where I was and grabbed my gun with its hand...

"Ugh...tch!"(Echo)

It grabbed my gun and started crushing it with its hand...

How powerful is that hand...

I let go of the gun in my hand and kick the Android in the belly with my feet...

The Android flew back a couple of feet away and look at me before breaking my gun in two with its arm and throw it to the floor...

"Fu.....this is challenging..."(Echo)

I got to thinking of something...

I took out a knife I had on my belt...

Every officer is armed with at least a knife or baton for close-quarter combat...

I used pretty much a knife for that...

I wonder if this can even penetrate its armor?...

I bet it couldn't since bullets can't penetrate it...

The android ran to where its katana was and quickly took it out from the ground...

And then it looks at me with its glowing eye again...

"..."(Echo)

Wonder what the others doing now are they still trying to open the gate now?...

The android then started launched to where I was again but...

"[Presence concealment]"(Echo)

I activate my skill presence concealment and evade it...

I then use another skill...

"[Silent noise]"(Echo)

I got to stay quiet more the android was about to detect me even when I was making a little sound, the android then started looking around for me again...

I look at the Android that is still looking around trying to find me...

Well, I better start thinking of another plan to beat that thing...

[Ragas POV]

Running and arriving at the gate with Elli we started to plant the explosive on the joints of the gate...

There are 4 of them and it will take time to plant them all...

I look behind to where Echo should be at...

I heard gunshots over there...

"..."(Ragas)

"Ragas?"(Elli)

I look at Elli that seems to have murky eyes in her eyes...

Well can't blame her we lost everyone and she lost someone dear to her...

But this is normal for a police officer so we have to stay strong...

I then remembered something...

There should be some car keys in the place where we came in...

"Elli you plant the explosive I'm going to help Echo"(Ragas)

"Eh? But-"(Elli)

"Don't worry... I know what I am doing and also... The others are waiting outside the faster we can open the gate the faster we can get help"(Ragas)

Elli thinks for a moment...

Then look at me...

"Okay... But don't die..."(Elli)

I then turned around and...

"I'll try not to"(Ragas)

Then started running to the door where we came from...

I just hope I find it there...

[Elli POV]

Looking at Ragas fading away in the darkness with his flashlight...

I looked at the gate...

"What do I do..."(Elli)

I remember when I saw Reu's dead body...

Reuton was very special to me and...

"Ugh..."(Elli)

Slap!

I slap myself in the face...

I can't be depressed now...

Seriously...

What would they think of me if I broke down right here right now?...

"And here we promise that we will have a party once this is over..."(Elli)

I don't know why but I'm starting to feel something dripping from my face...

What's this?...

I touched it with my arm...

"Tears?"(Elli)

Ah...

I guess I'm still weak to this huh...

I shake my head left and right then look at the gate, then I look at the joint supporting the gate...

I then grabbed something...

Before Ragas left he gave me some explosives...

I better hurry up and open this gate so that the others outside can come in...

I then started planting the explosive at the gate joints quickly...

I hope Echo and Ragas are alright...
