《The Noble Curse of Ookami [Previously Titled: CLOSER]》Snatching the Prey
Advertisement
After we got into the choppers, we quickly took into the air. The city's atmosphere was filled with black smoke from the destruction, filthy air obscure our view, as the pilot struggled to find a perfect place to drop us. At least the pilot of my chopper.
As my team and I were getting ready to drop onto the nearest rooftop, an explosion suddenly erupted from the other team. Their chopper had been hit by some kind of projectile from the ground. The Oras that were inside that chopper scrambled and tried to land on the rooftops, some succeeded, some failed and died.
"It's time to drop!!" the pilot shouted, I took a last glance into other Jaegers, they had different looks from before, they had the look of a warrior ready for battle. Then after encouraging myself, I jumped, followed by five other Jaegers.
I landed on some kind of a factory rooftop. It wasn't that bad, my fellow Jaegers also landed successfully. But I was horrified when I saw some Oras that failed to land earlier. One of them fell onto concrete that protrudes outward into some kind of spike, she was stabbed by its sharp end. I could see what might be her heart and other insides popped out.
From the distance, I saw some people that were possessed, seemed to be the ones causing the other chopper to fall. They had some kind of light on their hands, some kind of focused energy. Maybe that's their darkness. We never taught this in school, actually.
"Split up! Kuroyuki and I will go to the fallen chopper and see if anyone's survived! The others, clear this area!!" one Jaeger in my group, Kotetsu, assumed the command of the team. The rest of us then did what he requested.

"Let's finish those guys up," Kazuki, the most high-energy one, drew out his zodiac sword, and it lit up yellow, indicating light element, from the Fire-element sign, Sagittarius.
Once again the surge of adrenaline filled my blood, I could feel the power within me. I drew out my sword and charged forward with three remaining Jaegers, and tried to take out the possessed that caused our trouble earlier.
I can do this, I got this...
The possessed tried to blast me with their dark energy, thankfully I dodged successfully. I didn't know what the effects would be if I got hit, so I better be careful.
Then I stabbed the person, he groaned painfully. I could hear a cry coming from him, a human cry. Maybe he was in terrible pain, his body was controlled by this uncontrollable misery. I took out my sword from his gut, and let him fall down and fainted.
Surprisingly, all four of us got the target defeated. We couldn't rest just yet, we need an Ora immediately to seal up these people's bodies. But Kotetsu hasn't come back yet. I got a little worried about him and Kuroyuki.
Suddenly, the reinforcement of the possessed crawled up to the rooftop. These ones looked a bit different, they looked like zombies, and they were very agile. I tried to dodge them, but got scratched instead. Blood poured down from my left cheek.
---Shit!!
I dodged one of them that had a knife and tried to stab my face. I didn't know my instinct was that sharp, I felt moved by something, but I didn't know what that was. "Concentrate!!" Kazuki warned the Jaegers.
I put more power into my sword, and the blade began to glow a bright blue color. "TAKE THIS!!" ice sprouted from the edge of my blade, this was the first time ever my element came out. I successfully stabbed and slashed both of the possessed that attacked me earlier.

But when I turned my head to other Jaegers, I only saw Kazuki breathing heavily, and blood all over him. The two others failed to survive. As I thought the hoard of zombies was over, the second wave came and I had to defend the area together with him.
"Here we go again," said Kazuki, the light of his sword shone even brighter.
We then took a stance, facing the opposite directions. "We have to survive this, it would be silly if we failed on our first mission, right?" Kazuki smirked. "Let's clear this shit,"
My instinct got sharp again, as I charged towards the zombies in front of me, I used my ice to petrify some of them, and slashed the other as fast as I could. While dodging their rogue attacks. Their blood splat on my face, nasty smell filled my nose as their insides leaked, they fell and truly died.
After that, we took a deep breath, but still in steady positions.
"Hey!!" from across the rooftop, I saw Kotetsu waving at us, he seemed to carry an injured Ora. "Help me here!!" he yelled once more. Kazuki fetched him and the Ora to our side.
But Kuroyuki was not with him.
