Chapter 21: Blue Streak

"That was a shot from my rifle!!! That little shitbag! He's going to screw my entire plan up!"

***A few hours earlier***

Jhonny woke up not long after Henry left, only to find himself tied like a piece of smoked ham.

"That bully!" Jhonny yelled.

He looked around, trying to see the culprit to his unsavoury awakening, only to see a piece of paper near his head and a folded sniper in the corner of the cave. He couldn't believe it.

Henry had left him to rot, tied up like a sausage, alone in the cave.

"Barbarian!" He yelled.

"Savage!"

He vented his frustration for a few minutes, calling Henry by many monikers before finally calming down. He crawled his way to the note and read it.

* When you wake up, please don't make a scene. There might be enemies nearby, and you don't want to die now, do you? Also, if you manage to get out of those ropes, which I doubt, stay in the cave. Things will get dangerous soon, and I don't want you to die.

P.S. Don't touch my rifle, or I'll kill you, little miscreant. :) *

"..."

"YOU CRAZY BASTARD!" Jhonny howled.

Jhonny started struggling, trying in vain to get loose from his unwanted bondage. After fifteen minutes of wiggling, he stopped, knowing he wouldn't get free this way.

He started looking around on the ground to see if he could find a pointy rock or jagged edge to cut the rope off instead.

He had to crawl his way all around the cave in search of one tiny, pointy rock sticking out of the ground.

Jhonny crawled his way over the rock and lay on his back to get the point on the roping. When he flipped over, he miscalculated the landing point and jammed the rock right into his right hand.

"AARRGGHH!" He cried out in pain.

"He's going to pay for this! This is child abuse!" Jhonny raged.

He wiggled himself in the correct position to cut the rope and then started to perform a weird movement, hoping to cut himself loose. After an hour of bizarre wiggling and many cut wounds to his hands, he managed to set himself free.

He got up and stretched himself. Then he ran to the corner of the cave and grabbed the rifle.

"As if I'd listen to you after what you did to me," Jhonny snickered.

He ran out of the cave and bolted toward the Tamarain camp. After hours of running and stopping to catch his breath, he finally made it to the camp.

Jhonny was exhausted from all the running, and with the rifle being as heavy as it was, he nearly collapsed. He panted and gasped for air for a few minutes until he breathed with more ease.

He then got back up and looked for a good shooting spot. Something high with a good view of the camp.

He looked up and saw a nice big branch he could perch himself on, so he proceeded to climb up that tree.

Once up there, he unfolded the rifle, opened up the foot stand and got in a lying position. Once he finally found a target to shoot on, he took a deep breath, exhaled, and shot.

***

Henry saw from where the shot was taken, but he wasn't the only one. Many Tamarain foot soldiers started running and flying towards a big tree, overshadowing their camp.

'SHIT!' Henry thought.

He got up and ran towards Jhonny, too. Luckily for Jhonny, Henry had set up some traps not far from where he set up his shooting range.

Now, all he had to do was shoot the flying soldiers. Jhonny took the time to shoot another foot soldier before one of them stepped on a rigged grenade and blew up.

When he saw that, he immediately switched his focus to the flying soldiers.

'At least he has a tactical sense,' Henry thought, seeing the beams starting to hit the flying soldiers.

Jhonny was a very good shot, and not once did he miss. All Henry had to do was keep the foot soldiers from getting to him from the ground.

As he zoomed towards Jhonny, he took out two squadrons worth of foot soldiers. He finally reached Jhonny's shooting range and yelled up the tree, "You nincompoop! Why are you here?! I told you to stay in the cave!"

"Did you really think I'd listen to you, you barbarian?!" Jhonny spat back.

A shot whistled past Henry's head, so he ducked behind the tree.

"Dammit!" He muttered.

"Keep shooting the flies down. I'll take care of the bugs down here! And don't die!" Henry yelled at Jhonny.

He then bolted back out of hiding and zoomed into the enemy squadron up ahead. He bobbed, weaved, and dodged through the enemy fire and steamrolled through them with his blades.

From his perch, Jhonny could see Henry butchering the Tamarains. What he couldn't see, on the other hand, was blood splashing.

Every time Henry cut up a foe, there was no blood spurt. The only blood he could see was when a soldier hit the ground, then they would start bleeding.

He could see blood on the blades through the scope, but it never splashed away from them.

'What weird kind of knives is he wielding?' Jhonny wondered.

Nonetheless, he kept firing at the flying Tamarains. Now was not the time to space out.

They were in enemy territory, after all. The fight went on for half an hour without a problem arising.

But suddenly, through the scope, Jhonny saw a blue streak zigzag through the trees, heading straight for Henry.

When it got to him, all Jhonny saw was Henry flying back, hitting many trees, cleanly uprooting them out the ground.

'What the hell is this?!' Jhonny wondered, panicking.

He then saw what it was. Once it stopped moving, he clearly made out the figure of a woman.

'How is she moving like that? This can't be good,' he thought.

He had only heard of high-level Tamarains before and had no idea how powerful they were.
