Terror Infinity Side B

Chapter 34, HxH Greed Island

Capital City Limeiro.

Hiding northwest from the castle in the center of the city was Kurt and he was alone. Kurt was hiding in a three story building. Battles were being raged outside which very well determined whether he lived or died, yet he refused to leave his hiding place without reason.

It was because Kurt was alone.

Both literally, but more importantly figuratively. After Team Germany was hit by Team Japan's successive surprise attacks before finally reaching the city he was the only normal member of his team still alive. His leader Abigail, Klaus, and Adam had all unlocked the Genetic Constraints and looked down on those who had not and were seen as dispensable.

Kurt: "Fuck! Even as leader left as she clearly abandoned her team and only spoke Klaus. She didn't even look my way... but that was probably a blessing. If that bitch had not forgotten my existence she would have probably killed me so Team Japan couldn't get the rewards like she tried to do with Lutz. Dammit! Webber, Kurt, Cora, Lutz, and Erwin... why did you have to die and leave me alone like this?"

Kurt was normally a battle crazed warrior like his former partner Webber and personally loved to burn the flesh of his enemies with his magic, but that was before. Now, Kurt's spirit had been broken. The reasons were Team Japan's relentlessly wiping out his team and the fallout of his own team, but the conclusion of the two left Kurt paralyzed and unable to take action. Even knowing that if he doesn't kill a few members of enemy team he would certainly be erased by God even if no one came searching for him.

Kurt: "Please don't come here. Please don't come here. Please don't come here. Please don't come here. Please don't come here. Please don't come here. Please don't come here. Please don't come here. Please don't come here. Please don't come here. Please don't come here. Please don't come here. Please don't come here. Please don't come here. Please don't come here. Please don't-"

Kurt kept praying to the heavens for salvation, yet he forgot one important thing. Whether or not the real god or gods of the real world would hear him out or not, the God of this dimension was cold and cruel. An existence that only sought out the struggle of mankind to study evolution. Such a God... would never answer a prayer for peace.

- *RUMBLE*!!!

Kurt: "!!!"

Underneath Kurt's feet the floor shook. To be more accurate the entire three store building he was hiding in was shaking as if a great earthquake had hit. The strange thing was that it was only the building he was in that was experiencing this earthquake, yet that didn't matter in the end. Kurt could tell that the building was in danger collapsing and somehow he moved. Kurt intended to jump out from the window as he hoped for safety outside, yet he was disappointed once more. From the window he was running towards three grenades were thrown inside and detonated before him.

- *EXPLOSION*!!!

From outside.

The windows and frames of the third floor of the building were blown off by the blast of the three grenades. Shortly after a man in a tattered red robe, Kurt, fell from the third floor and landed on the streets below. It was a somewhat long fall, yet his magic robe at the very least gave this level of protection. Kurt, taking out a sci-fi weapon, looked around to see if there was an enemy present and-

Shuai: "Let go of that weapon! That doesn't belong to you!"

And found one. Not far away and standing out in the open was Team Japan's shaman Shuai. Shuai was normally like air and rarely got upset, yet his eyes were filled with rage. A confused Kurt followed Shuai’s line of sight and found the enemy looking at the M41A-M Pulse Rifle in his arms. It was a sci-fi weapon picked up from the corpse of Team Japan's gunner.

Kurt: "What! Are you that upset that I picked up this weapon from your comrade's corpse who died after killing one of my comrades? Fuck you! Hahaha! What's wrong with me using this gun it's mine now! I found it! Hahahahahahahahahahaha! If you want it back so badly take away from my cold dead fingers! Hahahahahaha! If you don't get burned alive first!!!"

Kurt had gone mad from the stress. In one hand he held the pulse rifle at his side and the other hand conjured a large fire ball. Bullets from the Sci-fi gun were let loose on Shuai. Just before they hit three layers of earth shields erupted from the ground to block the shots. Soon the walls of earth were blown apart by the power of the pulse rifle, yet on the other side Shuai was nowhere to be found.

Kurt: "Where are you rat?! You wanted to fight me, so let me burn you-"

As Kurt yelled like a manic he was stabbed from behind. Kurt looked behind his back to find a cute girl in yellow clothes, Gnome holding a bloodied spear made from stone stabbing into his side. Nothing vital was hit, but Kurt still threw up blood and he watched Gnome back up to retreat. In a fury Kurt released a fire ball at Gnome, but just before it hit, Gnome's body lost its shape and form and became a statute made of rocks that were then blown away by the fireball. As an Elemental Gnome could take on a physical form to attack and tank hits by using the natural elements, or revert to a spirit form hard to both find and harm.

Kurt’s face had turned red with rage rather than because of his own injuries. He desperately looked around for Shuai or the Elemental. Then he found both. Shuai and Gnome were together and escaping around a corner into another street. Kurt who was forced into a fight, now losing a lot of blood, and being left all alone again was furious at Shuai. Enough so that he chased after Shuai despite his injuries for the sole sake of burning him alive. Kurt in great agony ran and turned the same corner as Shuai to chase him down, and-

-*BANG*!

A loud gunshot from an anti-material rifle rang through the city. Connor, who didn't feel need to use his Trigger used a normal sniper rifle to take the shot to blew off Kurt's leg as he turned to the corner in chase of Shuai. Kurt struggled and tried to reach for the M41A-M Pulse Rifle that feel from his hands when he fell, and seeing this action Connor with a hint of anger in his eyes proceeded to blow off the arm reaching for his fallen comrades weapon as if it was his own.

Kurt: "..."

Shuai: "...HOI! JOSO! KETSU!"

Shuai silently walked back to the dying to give him his last rights. Kurt had a stab wound and lost two limbs. He wasn't like Shin or Aqua and couldn't hope to survive such heinous wounds and continuing let him suffer like that was too cruel. Team Japan wanted Kurt and his teammates dead, but personally they didn't get anything from torturing others.

Shuai: "METSU!"

Shuai created a purple Kekai Barrier around Kurt's head and let it detonate. The barrier collapsed on itself as it imploded and when the smoke cleared Kurt's head was gone and his suffering had come to an end.

- SIDE QUEST REWARD 5, ENEMY TEAM KILL - 2000 POINTS AND C RANK REWARD ACQUIRED!

- POINT CASUALTIES: ONE MEMBER OF TEAM GERMANY DIED. TEAM JAPAN +1 TEAM POINT AND TEAM GERMANY -1 TEAM POINTS.

TEAM JAPAN TEAM POINTS: -1.

TEAM GERMANY TEAM POINTS: -9.

TOTALS WILL BE MULTIPLIED BY 2000 BY THE END OF A TEAM'S MISSION AND DISTRIBUTED TO EACH LIVING MEMBER. MEMBERS OF BOTH TEAMS WITH NEGATIVE POINTS AT THE END WILL BE ERASED.

Shuai then looked away from the corpse of the victim he had personally killed and walked towards Kampa's fallen M41A-M Pulse Rifle, finally reclaiming it. Shuai then worried if it was fine for himself to keep it and not give it to one of the other of Team Japan, but first he contacted Connor over the Communicator Phone. Just before he did he considered looting Kurt's corpse for any items, but remembering how much it disturbed him when Team Germany did so to Kampa, Shuai choose not to.

Connor CP: "We're done here. Soon we'll be executing the attack on the green giant of Team Germany. Time to fall back and regroup with the others.

Shuai: "Sure, but was that okay back there? You could have head shot the guy, so why did you shoot him in the legs?"

Connor CP: "I found that the enemy was too weak both physically and mentally to be a threat to us, and so it was worth the risk of incapacitating him so that you can get the points for killing him. I've already killed two members of the enemy team. It was fine to hand the kill over to you."

Shuai: "Is that so? Wait, was that your way of showing kindness to a comrade?"

Connor CP: "..."

Connor immediately hung up the phone and left his snipers nest to regroup with the others leaving behind a confused Shuai. Shuai then looked towards the sci-fi rifle and recalled that Kampa had once tried to make the child solider of Team Japan open up. Shuai then sighed to himself and ran after to meet up with the others as well.

Shuai: "You really had it rough Kampa... I guess in your place I'll give it a shot as well later."
