"Get over here!" A feminine voice called out as she was tossing some bodies into a fire pit.

Some soldiers picked up the rotting clones and with a heave and a ho, down the corpses go to the burning pits of hell.

"Damn it, this sucks like hell on high water." One of the Foreign Continuum member said.

"Well, we have no choice mate. It's not like these damn suckers dispose demselve' ye?" One of the soldiers replied to her as she wipes her gloves onto her uniform.

"Yeah, you're right." The Foreign Continuum member tosses the last sighted body before heading back to the base.

...

"Well, well. Good job Echelon and Aviation , good job in your work today. It was of a great help!" General Maia cheered as she prances about in her cat-like figure.

The Crew and The Echelon smiles partially at her odd happy go lucky nature. General Shriway and General Mia comes in afterwards, with a map and some weights which represented Arming Points.

"Alright, thank you for calling them up. We congratulate for the success in defending the base and also, not dying again, Mr.Rampage." General Mia said as she makes a smirk towards him.

The room was a little sounded by giggles and chuckles but it was halted rather shortly by General Shriway's cold stare. "Give him a break... It's not like he wanted to die. "

She clears her throat as she opens up the map.

"So, we got potential coordinates in this certain area of our base's hillpoint. There seems to be an abandoned building which should possibly lead us to a camping site of our "friends" that visited us earlier. Not only they managed to clone more of them but at the same time, they managed to get themselves better equipped weapons. So, be careful..." General Shriway pointed out.

General Mia turns off the lights and opens a slide. "It appears to be that there are currently four captains out of the eight that are part of Axis. With as much technology we could use, their recognition of identity is unknown but with the help of Aura Identification, we can guess the type of Corrupted Guardian their welding. "

General Mia turns to a next slide with pictures of old artefacts containing Guardian crystals. "This are the weapons they are currently holding, this was before they were stolen and corrupted. The first captain of the slide is certainly weilding double daggers, the Guardian's name was Lezandra. A Beast-Type Guardian of the Felinus Race. She was one of the warriors guided by their elder before she was kidnapped and contained. With permission, we have information about her abilities and how she affects her User aka the Axis Captain number 1. Upon research, Lezandra has the ability to stay in some sort of invisibility state in shadows but can be revealed in light. NVGs could help in revealing her if you might encounter her in a night mission."

Next Slide: "Misa is next, An Elemental Guardian of Flame. Well, was flame. She is now able to conjure Dark Flames, a flame which is more devastating and longer to extinguish. As a wand for a weapon, her user might had to learn to use her. From recent sightings in satellite and drone surveillance. She seems to be able to make portals, walls, bomb-like traps and even typical burst of flame, which is commonly known as a fireball. Since Dark-Fire is corrupted flame aura, it seems to be stronger than napalm enhanced flames, so, if you are up against her. She would probably be able to win unless we have a Ice type Guardian to support you. Unfortunately, Ice-Types are quite rare as they don't really like cooperating and/or they are just too scared to leave their homes."

Third Slide: "Thirdly, we have a gun. This was recovered after a search site in Utah, America in an abandoned Mine. It was stated by the residence of the town nearby that the gun was cursed with an evil and whoever touches it becomes insane and somehow always have perfect aim. Upon further investigation and research, it was confirmed that it was a Guardian. Collected and brought to Continuum, it is now stolen. As per the insane part, I am not too sure. The user tends to be very quiet and calm compared to the others in our surveillance. Also, the gun somehow also have unlimited capacity even for its eight barrel, so if you are up against her, good luck dodging her shots."

"Now for the last ...." General Mia notices someone reaching their hand to the air. "Yeah, what is it?"

"You state that the Gun Guardian was collected for reasearch but no origins of her?" Sherrinford was the one who asked.

"Unfortunately, we hadn't gotten a response when we first encountered the weapon, even the other Guardians couldn't enter into the Guardian's Subspace. It probably used a specially locked pocket dimension only accessed by the Guardian who probably didn't like to interact." General Mia explained.

"But, our reasearchers theorised that it would be of demonic origins..." General Shriway voiced out.

"It's only a theory but we could stick to it for now." General Mia replies as she puts the last slide.

"The last one is a little unique, not one but two Corrupted Guardian are on the User's hand. A cloak that can shift reality in small dimensions and a crossbow which shoots arrows of any type upon the users choosing, might as well be a lovely hunter duo. Oddly enough, the Guardian's Names are Red (for the cloak) and Zeruiah (for the crossbow). The user however only managed to use a few of the cloaks potential. Invisibility, Pocket Dimensioning, Telekinesis by the act of tossing her cloak to kidnap soldiers after sucking them up to a probable portal and finally, reality bending. However, that can only be accessed once she has someone under pocket dimension occupied. Basically, it's a interrogation room with thousands of possible torture methods. I think she might be the most dangerous of the bunch. As they say, two is more dangerous than one."

Everyone from the Echelon and The Aviation were under shock as they heard through the guardians.

"Are you kidding? That's basically a suicide mission" William gave his opinion. "All four of them are using overpowering weapons that can literally turn tides in a flick of a finger."

General Shriway nods slowly. "That is true."

"Yeah, but...their still corrupted, they can't work even 50% of their true power as both the user and the guardian has an equal wavelength of literally none. Yes, some may have evolved but it doesn't mean their strong. Some of the soldiers from the Global program fought them before. They are considerably still alive and well and I am pretty sure you guys will too." General Ma replies.

"But aren't the Global Program actual ex-millitary soldiers? I'm pretty sure they are older and more experienced." Chau-Min asked.

Quietness filled the room.

"Yeah, you are right." General Mia nods.

"Alright alright, let's get back to the original reason you guys are here." General Mia points to the map.

"The Aviation crew will have to team up with the Echelon and ambush the campsite. Obviously, without your planes. You have to learn to use your guns and guardians for once and this will be a great opportunity."

A pilot raised her hand as she asks a question. "Wait, no planes? Then how are we going to reach for the base. It's quite a long way in the looks of the map."

"You guys will be transported with a van. The reason we are not allowing planes is to make sure they don't have Anti-Air Defenses , who knows. In our higher technology era, anything can be made in small bits." General Mia answers. "No worries, it's not like we're going to force you to walk all the way. "

The soldiers nodded their heads as they proceed to concentrate.

"As you ambush, your team will be separated to five. Atleast, one support, two of our main soldiers and two of our aviation pilots....I mean't mages." General Mia said. "Each of the five man team will be given a task according to their skills. One to disrupt the troops, one to streak intel . Another for the resources and the last for whatever side job we decide to throw into you. Out of the five man teams, one of you have to fight atleast one of the Captain's if they are available. The further they are , the easier they fall."

"It sounds simple General. But the execution may not be what it seems." Captain Shanina voiced. "What if they suddenly left the place and then suddenly came back and notice the ambush, I'm pretty sure they will call the rest for backup."

"That sounds possible but I am pretty sure the Captain's wouldn't risk themselves for a unfair fight. After all, cloning takes progress. You can't just keep on cloning its original being. So, you might see into it." Mia replies back with a smile.

"Anyway, that is it for now. Your team would be grouped up soon as we call you. Also note, the members of Phantom could also be in your team each depending on the job. Since you stated more experience, I am pretty sure they could give some help for you folks. That's it, dismissed!"

The soldiers nodded as they headed to the door. Sighs and worried smiles left the room.
