Meanwhile on the other side of the valley.<br/><br/><br/>“How long do you think until they figure out the hive was cleared out?” Ante smiled and took a sip from his coffee mug “Great show we put eh Bloody?” jeering on the annoyed looking woman.<br/><br/>“Shut it, this is training, they need to learn to work together, find shelter and control their emotions, they can do it easily in a lab, out there it's going to be harder. This isn't a game where we can just watch them flail around like maggots.” Grumbling the last sentence. “Besides, I say they kill each other before the day is out.” Scoffing and uncorking her now second bottle of wine and pouring it into a normal glass.<br/><br/>David watched from a chair overlooking the valley, motionless he watched the trees. Moving his hand up to scratch his beard and fix his glasses he saw the beam of light rise into the air. “Huh, look at that. Seems they need a rescue already” Ante muttered and stood up. “I'll go fetch 'em.”<br/><br/>However Ante stopped as David raised his hand.  “Not yet... something has changed.” The forest had come alive, animals, wildlife of all kinds started to peel towards the edges of the forest, not to hunt or to get water, they were running from something. “Ante, get Temptress out here. Now!” He shouted and stood up out of his chair.<br/><br/>Ante looked over the side and his eyes went wide. A wave of dusk erupted from the hive, a hundred or more came out like a warm of angry bees starting to scan through the forest for it's latest intruders, breaking off into packs and starting their hunt. More and more just kept coming from the nest, just below the tree line.<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>Full Metal:<br/><br/>Turning his brightly red face away from Siren, who had look directly at him while undressing.<i> No way she was looking at me... right? </i>gulping and turning around pulling his hood up over his face looking at everything besides the naked woman. Damn why was every girl here so good looking? Well besides Hack, she was cute, but not attractive.<br/><br/>Listening to the advice of Chiara he found her harder and harder to think of himself as any kind of leader. She was so commanding and knew exactly how to act.<i> I'm going to be a loser again..</i>Thinking poorly to himself before shaking his head and looking back over the group. “Everyone, she's right, we need to work together, if everyone puts this rude awakening behind us we'd realize we need to do three things. Perimeter, food and final organize the group.  Set a path, assign jobs, if we get everyone together we can do all that. For now Blades and Hakon, you two are a good choice to set up a perimeter, Sam you go with them. They will need you to get them out of any danger is dusk show up.”<br/><br/>“Siren, Cryo, don't worry I can fix the showers.” Of which as stopped working by this point. “You two should set up camp, figure out where everyone is sleeping, who will take guard duties, Frans and Razor, can you two go look for anyone who isn't here and tell them to meet up.” Turning back to the group, leaving himself, hack, nova and the nun. “We'll get breakfast started shall we? Truth be told I just want someone watching my back while I cook. Are you two okay with helping me?” Look at the two of them, then back to the rest of the group. “No one go alone, everyone stay within shouting distance, if a dusk attacks you, lead it towards the camp and we'll all take it down. I'm sure we could all easily take on five by ourselves” He smiles and looks over the group. “I mean hell, picture them with bloody's face and I'm sure you'll want to punch it in. We don't want to risk one of those things getting any of that blue jelly on us. That stuff is dangerous.”<br/><br/>With that he clapped his hands and hopped everyone would get to work. He turned around and started to work on opening boxes and bags. “Flour, wheat, dried meats, powered milk, canned foods.” Humming to himself as he listed off what he saw. “Bacon, eggs, toast... we have a breakfast for kings!” chuckling and starting to unpack enough food for the group.<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>Hack:<br/>Looking shocked towards the group, each one starting to turn on each other, she sunk deeper into herself, her already emotionless face turning dark and depressed. “I miss David” She mutters under her breath. These people were so mean, Computers were never mean to her. She tapped away at her phone before looking up to a woman holding her hand out.<br/><br/>The woman has spoken to her, she forgot the woman's name too. Damn she might have never bothered to learn it in the first place. So scatterbrained. Taking the hand of the kind woman looking up at her with mild surprise the fear melting away from her visage. “So we're going to kill some dusk and go home?” The small girl asked softly. Tilting her head to the side as the woman gave orders, forgetting her own question and looking around hoping people would stop and listen.<br/><br/>Full metal stepped up and tried to give some extra direction to the whole thing, she though he sounded kind of redundant, but what he said and what he added did make sense. Even if it was only fueling his own ego. As far as hack was concerned Full metal was like a annoying big brother.<br/><br/>The small girl was a child in everything but age, in face she would turn thirty in a little under a year. Being one of the oldest if no the oldest of the group. After years of being treated like a child for her size she soon grew used to acting like one.<br/><br/>“News update” The girl didn't speak her but from her direction the sound of a new broadcast came out. “Dusk have attacked the southern most part of Germany, trying to retake land. Hero's and soldiers were able to fight off the Dusk two thousand dusk have been found dead, fifteen hundred heros and soldiers are missing in action or been found dead. The European military is calling this the largest dusk attack made on Europe soil in over two years. In lighter news the Venans have made breaking strides towards becoming equal citizens, a new street full of apartment buildings have been opened up to house the homeless aliens in New York, the Venans have since offered to lend aid to medical pursuits in field regarding the dusk. We'll see how far this goes towards finally having peace between our people.” The broadcast shuts off and Hack is left standing there as everyone either looks at her or goes off to do their jobs.<br/><br/>“I thought everyone might like to know what's going on in the world...” She mutters before clinging tightly to the wet cloths of the nun woman, like a child to it's mother.<br/><br/>Looking at full metal as he starts to unpack she looked intently into the woods but says nothing, he eyes locking onto something in the distance.<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>In short minutes after Full metal Finishing speaking and gets to work. There is a ear splitting screech in the woods, a high pitched noise which makes birds fly into the air, it could have been miles away but no doubt that was the cry of a dying animal. Not a normal kill either, a tormenting, agonizing long and painful death. The cry was followed by three more before there was eerie silence.<br/><br/>A long pause and then a single dusk flew into the sky, the white mass catching onto a flying bird and dragging it to the earth below. The thing was no more than a half mile away. How far away could they sense again? Did it see the group? Are there more? There were so many questions the group could be asking themselves, most importantly. Were they safe here?<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
