This is my 2nd H!P fanfic overall but my first one here at JPH!P. It takes place on a military base and mainly features C-ute and Berryz. I'll try to update it as often as I can.
Ch. 1-Arrival
The camoflauged helicopter touched down in the middle of the camp. The helicopter, which would usually be packed with passengers, had only one today. She jumped out onto the helipad and grabbed her gear. As she did that she was approached by a lady in an officer's uniform. As the officer approached, she saluted quickly.
"At ease, soldier.Welcome to Camp Aki" the officer said "You're the transfer from Hayama, right?I'm Col. Abe Natsumi.Most people call me Col. Nacchi though.Well anyway you'll be assigned to assist the leader of C Platoon.They're a...unique bunch of soldiers.Their barracks are right over there by those trees.Go introduce yourself and get comfortable."
The soldier picked up her bags and walked over to the barracks. She opened the door. The 6 soldiers in the room were just sitting around. Some were playing cards, one was reading magazines and some were chatting. She approached the one reading a magazine and asked:
"Uh, excuse me Pvt...Okai, where is your Commanding Officer at?"
"In the back, in her office." the soldier answered, not looking up from the magazine.
"Thanks" she said before heading to the back office. She sat her things down by the door and entered.
"Uh...Lt. Yajima, maam?"
"Oh, so you're my new platoon sergeant?" the Lt. said, jumping up from her desk.
"Yes, maam.I'm Sergeant First Class Umeda Erika, reporting for duty." she said and saluted.
"I'm 1st Lieutenant Yajima Maimi.You are from Camp Hayama, right?What did you do there, sergeant?" Yajima asked "Military Police?Armor?"
"Well, maam, I was in a supply unit for the past 9 years and decided to join the Infantry so I could actually fight instead of carry boxes all day." Umeda answered
"Well, you got your wish." Yajima said "Those girls out there are a real fighting bunch!Some of them fought in the war in Hokkaido a few year ago.Remember that mess, Sgt?"
"I sure do.I only helped send supplies to the frontlines, though.The closest I got to Hokkaido was a supply depot in Aomori Prefecture..."
"Well, anyway, go put up your stuff and introduce yourself." the Lt said as she sat back down
Sgt. Umeda stepped out the office and asked for the 6 soldiers' attention. They just ignored her and continued what they were doing. She kept calling out but her efforts were in vain.
"Maybe this will help Sgt." Lt. Yajima said stepping out her office. "Platoon!Attention!"
The whole platoon stopped what they were doing and stood at attenion.
"Now this lady beside me, is your new platoon sergeant, Sgt. Umeda.You will give her your full attention when she asks and I will not tolerate you giving her backtalk.If I hear about any disrespect, expect my boot in your face." Yajima announced.
"Yes, maam" the platoon replied
"As you were" the Lt. said
The Lt. went back into the office as Umeda put up her things. A soldier, Corporal Arihara, approached her.
"Sorry for not listening to you earlier, Sergeant.I guess we'll have to get used to you.By the way, Cpl. Arihara Kanna, at your service."
"Don't worry about it.I--" Umeda said before she was cut off. Two soldiers were fighting on the other side of the barracks.
"I've been here for 30 minutes and already a fight." the Sgt. thought "Guess I gotta break this up I did like back in Hayama"
She ran over to the fight just as the other soldiers gathered around and cheered them on.
"Break it up, guys!" Umeda yelled as she and Arihara pulled the two apart "Why are you guys fighting for?"
"She called me a boy" Pvt. Okai said
"Because your hair makes you look like one, stupid." the other girl, Pvt Hagiwara replied.
"Shut up little kid before I knock you back to wherever town you came from." Okai snapped back
"Hit her and I'll throw you across the room" Umeda threatened, still holding on to Okai
"With all due respect, Sarge, I can knock you into the Stone Age." Okai said, a smirk on her face.
"Oh, really?" the Sgt. said before picking the Private off of the ground and tossing her across the room. Okai came face first with the wall and was knocked out as the rest of the platoon looked on in amazement.
"Wow..." Haigiwara said "Nice throw"
"Sarge...what did you do before coming here?" Arihara asked.
"I was in supply." Umeda answered
"No ordinary supply soldier has that kind of skill, Sarge." Hagiwara said.
"Well I did do some pro fighting in Hayama." Umeda said dusting her hands off "But you'll learn about me tomorrow.I'm tired." And she jumped into bed.
As Umeda got some sleep, the platoon stared at Okai laying by the wall and the dent that she left.

Ch. 2-Enter Aces
This "war in Hokkaido" happened a few years ago.
A terrorist army of about 200,000 attacked numerous cities in Hokkaido. Their objective: to reach Tokyo and take over the government. The Japanese military quickly responded and sent the majority of their forces to the north to combat the threat. The terrorists in Hokkaido were clearly ready for the goverment forces, attacking them as soon as they reached the beach. But the military slowly moved north. The worst battle was the Battle of Sapporo. About 60% of the Hokkaido capital city was destroyed in the fighting. The fighting got some ferocious that in one part of the city, mass hand to hand battles were reported. It was a long hard 3 years of fighting but in the end, the rebels officially gave up and it was a victory for the government. As Japan tries to recover in this postwar era, it is rumored there are still small holdouts in Northern Japan, including in Iwate Prefecture, where Camp Aki is located.
The sun rose across the horizion as Sgt. Umeda crawled out of bed slowly.
"What time is it?" She thought as rubbed her eyes
She checked her watch. It was about 4:45 Am, not yet time for formation. She looked around and noticed that everyone was in the bed sleeping except Lt Yajima.
"Where is the Lt?" Umeda thought, yawning "Formation's in 15 minutes"
She looked out the window by her bed and saw Yajima sitting on the hill overlooking the town of Aki to the north. The Sgt. washed her face and then walked outside to talk to her. It was cool outside despite it being summer and there was light breeze came in from the south.
"Good morning Lt." she said as she sat down next to the Lt.
"You're up early Sergeant." Yajima said watching the city as it woke "You have a good sleep?"
"It was ok.What are you doing out here, Lt Yajima maam?" Umeda asked
"Don't be so formal all the time.Just call me Maimi or Lieutenant or just Yajima or something like that." Yajima said not turning her head.
"Sorry about that Lt." Umeda replied, embarrassed.
"No problem.Anyway, I like to come out here sometimes and just think.Not many people come over here to this lookout and so it'susually pretty quiet." Maimi explained "See that town all the way down there?That's Aki."
"Looks pretty far away." Umeda said, squinting to get a better view of the town
"It is.The only way to get there from up here on this mountain is by helicopter or by driving down a long crooked path." Maimi continued "When I think about how little it looks from here, it inspires me."
"Are you about to start writing poems or something?" Erika said with a smile on her face.
"Nah, I've always stunk at writing stuff." Yajima said with a smile before turning to Umeda. "Anyway, I think about how if Aki wasn't down there, then this would be a pretty lonely place.Makes you think about how far away from home you are...So to change the subject, did you read the Platoon Sergeants' manual before you came here?"
"I read it on the flight over" Umeda replied. "Why?"
"You have to learn each of the specialties of the people under your command?" the Lt. explained "You'll learn Platoon C's specialties after I wake them up real quick.Hold on for a second."
Umeda sat on the hill as Yajima got up and went back to the barracks.
"Hey Platoon C wake up you guys!Attention!" Erika heard Yajima say as she called the platoon to attention before Maimi stuck her head back out the door "Alright, come on in Umeda!"
The Sgt. got up and went back inside the barracks. The whole platoon was at attention in front of their bed.
"Platoon!What are your occupations?" the Lt said as the others got into their fighting stance.
"This isn't '300' guys.Stop trying to act like Spartans!" the Sgt. said, trying not to laugh
"Alright tell her what your jobs really are." Yajima said, giggling. "Arihara, you first and then go down the line."
"Cpl. Arihara Kanna.I'm the platoon's cameraman.I tape all the missions that we go on so the COs know that we're not playing around all the time.I'm also able to use a shotgun" Arihara said. She wore a wool cap that used to be the fad on base until they were replaced by the normal work hat and had a camera in her pocket "But you know me already, Sarge."
"Pvt. Okai Chisato.I'm the platoon sniper." Okai said. She wore the normal uniform but with rolled up sleeves and a eyepatch in her pocket "Hagiwara over there is my spotter...unfortunately"
"I'm PFC. Suzuki Airi, new Sarge.But people call me 'Kappa'.I'm a machine gunner." the girl next to Okai announced with a thumbs up. She wore leather gloves without the fingers maybe to keep her hands safe from the heat that machine guns are known to give off "I hope we can be friends."Umeda noticed that throughout her introduction, she never lost her smile.
"PFC Suzuki, why are you smiling so much?" Erika asked.
"I'm always happy, new Sarge.Maybe because I love being in this Army so much, I can't stop smiling." Suzuki replied. "I don't remember the last time I wasn't.Anyway, your turn, Nakajima."
"I'm Cpl. Nakajima Saki, Sarge.I'm the main rifleman in this platoon.I can take apart a rifle and put in back together in 45 seconds. But I like to use the sub machine gun most the time." the girl next to Suzuki said. She was wearing a large red headband around her head like Rambo but Erika didn't know why. "I hope we be good friends."
"And I'm Pvt. Hagiwara Mai, Boss.I'm a medic but I'm also the spotter for that idiot over there." the youngest girl said pointing to Okai. She wore the regular camoflauge uniform unbuttoned with the shirt underneath exposed.
"You...are...DEAD!!" Pvt Okai said before trying to attack Hagiwara but she was held back by Arihara. "Kanna.Let go of me!I'm gonna kill that kid."
"Bring it on!I can take you!" Hagiwara said motioning her over. "Come on!Hit me right here"
"So anyway Umeda.Those are the jobs." Yajima said, turning back to Erika "We'll go do morning execises and then we'll eat breakfast."
The platoon got cleaned up and did the morning exercises including pushups, situps, jumping jacks and a few laps around the camp. They then headed to the cafeteria. At the cafeteria, the platoon sat at the table eating breakfast and chatting.
"This food is horrible." Nakajima said with a disgusted look "Did we get different cooks today or something?"
"Nakajima, you always hate the food here." Maimi said, slightly annoyed "You should try to get leave or something so you can stop complaining about this food all the time."
"How's that bump on your head, Okai?" Umeda asked still looking down at her food "Sorry about that by the way"
"It's alright now.Thanks." the Pvt. replied, rubbing her head
"Hey Okai!You got your money today?" a girl near the table asked. The girl wore a wool cap like Arihara and a strange armband on her arm.
"No.Why do you bother me so much anyway?" Okai replied as she stood up like she was going to fight her.
"Because you're so weak and always have money" the girl said as she walked over to Okai and sized her up "Now gimme the money and don't gimme any backtalk."
"No, I won't g---" the Pvt. barely said before she hit with a punch to the stomach. The punch knocked the wind out of Okai and brought her to her knees.
"Hey she can't do that." Umeda thought "I can't let one of my soldiers be attacked like that."
"I know what you're thinking, Sarge.Don't do it." Arihara whispered to Umeda
She stood up anyway and stormed over to the girl. The girl turned around to greet her with a smile.
"Hey you!" Umeda said with an angry look "What are you doing?Don't touch my soldier!"
"Oh you're the new Platoon Crappy sergeant, huh?I'm Sgt. Tanaka, part of the deadly 'Aces Squad'." the girl said pointing to the red armband on her arm "If you're gonna defend this idiot, then you're gonna get beat just like her."
"Alright then." Erika said with a defiant look. Tanaka then threw a punch towards her cheek but before it could connect, Erika punched her with a quick shot to the nose. The punch was so strong, it made Tanaka fly backwards. Tanaka hit the ground with a loud thud. The cafeteria grew silent and watched as Tanaka, laying on the ground, checked her nose and noticed it was bleeding. She then stood up as the crowd wondered what she would do next.
"You...you...got a hit.What am I gonna do?This...this...ain't over, new meat!Okai, I'll be coming back for you.Have my money next time" Tanaka said before running off, holding her nose.
"You alright, Chisato?" Erika asked, sticking out a hand.
"Yeah, I'm alright.Thanks for the help, Sarge." Okai said as Umeda helped her up." But, I can't believe you made the 'Ace of Diamonds' run away with one punch, that was amazing."
"What's a 'Ace' anyway?" Umeda asked as she sat back down "Sounds like a video game."
"They're a 4 member gang who are all combat vets of the Hokkaido conflict. They go around beating up people and stealing money and food.They usually end up beating to a pulp anyone who opposes them." Maimi explained, still eating her breakfast. "But you made one of them give up though which is pretty cool."
"But Tanaka is only the weakest member, Sarge." Nakki said in a matter of fact way "The other 3 members are stronger than her and once she tells the others, they'll be all over you like a dog on a porkchop"
"Odd comparision but yeah that's what they usually do." Arihara said "Once you make one mad, you have to deal with the others."
"Could we stop talk about those Aces for one day?" Hagiwara said as everyone continued eating. "I just wanna eat and go into town today"
"Why Hagiwara?You got a hot date or somethin'?" Okai asked
"No I'm gonna go to the bar a get some drinks.Wanna come Sato?" Hagiwara replied smiling
"As long as we don't come back at 11pm again and don't abandon me in the middle of town again like last time.I don't wanna get hit on by old men again" Okai said wagging a finger at her
-
Well after rereading my last chapter, I found things I didn't like sooo I rewrote Ch 2 and 3 to be more descriptive and added some background on Pvt. Okai. So here's the Ch 3 remix.
Ch. 3-Ace of Diamonds
In the remote mountains of Iwate Prefecture is Camp Aki. It is cold in the winter and a little bit warmer in the summer. The small military base is not close to any large cities. In fact, the only populated settlement remotely close to it is the small town of Aki, just down the mountain, for which the base is named. It is almost impossible to drive up the rough mountain roads leading up to the base so the only way to reach it is a 6 hour hike up the mountain or a 10 minute helicopter ride, which is how the soldiers stationed there get mail, supplies, and transport.
Around 6 pm, Sgt. Umeda sat on the ground outside the barracks reading a novel that she had brought from Hayama as the rest of the platoon played around, chatted, and slept inside. She couldn't concentrate with all of the noise inside so she had come outside for some quiet. She was just getting to the climax in the story where the hero meets the villain on top on the skyscraper for the final battle when she felt something cold and hard hit her in the side of the head. The blow dazed her and she stood up, trying to keeping her balance.
"Ow!What just hit me?" She thought, putting her hand on her head, checking for blood. The wound wasn't bleeding but had a pulsing pain.
She looked around wondering where the attack came from and saw Sgt. Tanaka with a metal pipe and a bandage over her nose, wearing her clothes from earlier but her wool cap was in her pocket now..
"Hey Sergeant!" Tanaka said with a evil smile on her face "What's up?"
"You're Tanaka from earlier, right?" Umeda said, rubbing her head wound "Did you just hit me with that pipe?"
"Are you stupid?Of course I did!No one humiliates me like that in public" Tanaka said preparing to swing the pole again "I'm gonna make sure that you die and Okai will never refuse to give me money again."
Tanaka swung the pole, aiming for the ribs, but Umeda dodged the attack by jumping back. She then ducked down and swept Tanaka off of her feet, causing her to hit the ground and knocking the pole out of her hand. The pole rolled for a second before stopping at a tree about 10 feet away. Erika stood back up as Tanaka lay on the ground stunned.
"If you're gonna fight me, Tanaka, then fight me hand to hand like a honorable person does or if you wanna play dirty, I'll make sure you'll never be able to hold a pole again" the Sgt. 1st Class said with a strern look on her face as she put her hand out to help her up. Tanaka slapped away her hand and scrambled to her feet.
"Ok if that's the way you wanna die, so be it" Tanaka said with a smirk as got into a fighting pose and threw a cheap shot at Erika's gut just as she did with Pvt. Okai that morning. The blow connected but Umeda didn't seem too affected by it. She just scrached the area like it was a mosquito bite. Tanaka's smirk turned into a look of shock.
"Wow another cheap shot" Umeda said, yawning "This is starting to get old."
Erika then countered with a one-two punch to the face knocking Tanaka to the ground once again. By now, the rest of the platoon inside the barracks had heard the fight outside and came to the window to watch.
"Go new Sarge!!" PFC. Suzuki yelled from inside, smiling brightly "Beat her to a plup"
"Shouldn't we do something Maimi?" Nakajima asked looking worrited "I mean should we call the MPs or something?"
"Nah she looks like she's doing fine by herself" Yajima said "Besides, I don't want to get the MPs here.You know how they like to ask everyone a billion questions."
Back outside, Tanaka now had numerous bruises on her face and body and was laying on the ground, rolling in pain. Erika stood in front of her, looking disinterested.
"Are you done?" Umeda asked looking down at Tanaka "I gotta finish my book."
"I'm...an Ace...and Aces always...have a special move that only we...know about." she said as she stood up slowly "Prepare for the Diamond Drill"
"The Diamond what?" Erika replied "Sounds like a movie or something."
Tanaka then went behind Umeda and kicked her just behind the knees, making Erika fall to her knees. Sgt. Tanaka then followed with an elbow to the face. But before the elbow could hit her face, Umeda grabbed Tanaka's elbow and pushed it forward, breaking it with a loud crack."
"OWWW!!" Tanaka screamed falling over in pain "Man, that hurt like crap.No one's ever countered the Diamond Drill before...are you even human?"
"Just as human as you, Tanaka." Erika replied getting back up "You have a broken arm and a busted nose now.Do you really wanna keep going with this?"
"I'll get you back for this.I'm gonna kill you and your platoon.I'll...tell my friends.Once my friends here about this, you're dead." Tanaka said before getting back up and looking at the rest of Platoon C in the window, particularly Okai "That goes for all of you too.We're gonna make sure all of you die.Especially you, Okai.I'm gonna get all that money your family keeps sending you."
"I'm not scared of you, Tanaka!If you even get close to me, Sarge will break your face, right Sarge?" Okai replied, looking at the Sgt. with a slightly worried look on her face.
"That's my job, Chisato!" the Sgt. said before turning back to Tanaka "Now if you're done fighting with me, why don't you go do something important because I have kittens tougher than you."
Sgt. Tanaka said nothing else as she ran away, holding her arm. Rubbing her head wound, Erika went back inside the barracks. The rest of the platoon cheered and welcomed her back like she had just returned from behind enemy lines.
"You're beating people up left and right, Sarge" Cpl. Arihara said
"Hey Boss, can you beat up Okai again?That was the highlight of my day." Pvt. Hagiwara laughed.
"Mai, I'm about to give you the highlight of your day!!" Okai said before running towards Hagiwara.
"Guys, break it--" Umeda said before Arihara cut her off.
"Don't do it, Sarge.They'll fight for a couple of seconds and get tired." she said
"Good job, Umeda" Yajima said patting her on the back "That was just beautiful like poetry in motion."
"Thanks Maimi." Erika said before looking at Okai, who had Hagiwara in a headlock "Okai, what is this money she's was blabbering about?"
Okai stopped her fight and started to look nervous "My parents are...how you say...more affluent than most people are."
"So you're a rich girl, huh?Never told us this before" Arihara asked with a smile "What do they do?"
"They run a chain of music stores.They have stores from Sapporo to Okinawa" Okai explained with a sad look "When I first joined up, no one knew about my connections.But when word suddenly got out, Those Aces were on my back for the money that my parents send me every month."
"Well don't worry about them, Pvt.They won't ever touch that money as long as we're here." Nakajima reassured her.
"Thanks guys" Okai said "Now let's get some sleep.Being with this idiot today made me tired."
"You wanna start this again?!?" Hagiwara said as she tackled Okai. "I told you that I didn't know that guy was that serious about Dance Dance Revolution."
...
"Hey guys"
"Wow what happened to you Tanaka?"
"Yeah you look horrible."
"That new Sergeant in C Platoon beat me up."
"But we're Aces!"
"Yeah Aces don't get beat up!Did you have to use your special move?"
"Yes but she countered before I could finish it."
"Well, I guess I gotta clean up your mess for you, Tanaka"
"If I can't beat her, I know you can, Michishige.Oh yeah, I forgot, when you beat her, get that Okai kid's money for me too"
"Sure!After I'm through with her, she'll be a bleeding pulp.Now let's get some sleep before the Lt. gets all mad at us again."
"Too late guys!"

I posted the first draft of Ch. 4 and didn't even notice it :lol: Anyway here's the final draft of Ch. 4. Sorry for the mistake.
Ch. 4 - The Bunny With Clubs
In a small mountain valley in east Iwate Prefecture is the small town of Aki. It was founded as a small village in 1892 and has grown very little since then. With a population of about 4,000 residents and about 100 military residents, Aki is so small that most people outside of Iwate know that it exist. As a matter of fact, the town's only claims to fame are Camp Aki and its annual Rain Festival, which takes place in June. But throughout the rest of the year, Aki stays a quiet, sleepy mountain town.
Two days after the fight with Sgt. Tanaka, Sgt. Umeda, Pvt. Okai, Pvt. Hagiwara, and Cpl. Nakajima headed to a small bar in Aki after doing some combat exercises with Platoon B. Inside the bar were several townspeople and some out of uniform soldiers playing cards, drinking, and chatting. Near the door was an old jukebox that played some '80s music. The group headed over to the counter and sat down to order some drinks.
"Hey!Four drinks for me and my friends here" Okai told the server
"Right away!" the server in a white apron replied as he went to find some glasses.
"Hey 'Sato, hold my drink for me.I'm about to try to get a high score on DDR." Hagiwara said as she got up and headed over to the game across the room.
"Whose high score are gonna try to beat?Yours?You know you're the only one to play that dumb game." Okai replied.
"Yeah yeah yeah..." the medic said as she dug in her pocket for some change
"So how are you liking Aki so far, Sarge?" Nakajima asked as the drinks arrived
"Ehhhh it's alright.It isn't as busy as Hayama.I remember there always a line to the bathroom even at night." Umeda replied as she took a sip of her drink. "It was always pretty crazy there."
"Well you don't have to worry about that here." Okai said before taking a large gulp of her drink"We have a billion bathrooms so your bladder will never be full."
"Unless Mjr. Yaguchi shuts down the bathrooms again" Nakajima pointed out "Remember that, Okai?"
"Sure do." the sniper replied before asking for a refill of her drink
"What happened with the bathrooms?" Umeda asked with a confused look.
"Well about 3 months ago, Mjr. Yaguchi, one of the head officers on base, thought there were enemies coming out of the toliets because she heard a strange noise coming from her personal bathroom.She ordered all soldiers on base to 'grab a gun and defend every bathroom to the last man'. Turns out that strange noise was just creaky pipes." Nakajima explained, not drinking her drink "But she still stuck to the story that there were enemies in the toliets."
"Yeah she was always a bit crazy" Okai said as her drink was refilled. "I remember th--"
Suddenly the group's conversation was interrupted. A strange girl had just entered the bar. She wore a large black mask over her face, a black overcoat covered most of her body, and she carried a white megaphone and a piece of paper.
"Good afternoon, citizens." the girl started as she read the paper "Have any of you seen a girl named U...Ume...Umeda?"
"Hey look a comedian!" Umeda joked as the whole bar erupted into laughter, except Hagiwara, who was still playing DDR. The girl was visibly annoyed by the joke and stormed over to the group.
"Hey SFC, you got something to say to me?" she asked as she stared down Umeda.
"Hey hey hey chill out.I didn't mean it." Umeda replied as the girl started to calm down "I'm Umeda.What do you need?"
"Well Umeda it's time to die" the girl said before pulling a knife and thrusting it at Umeda. Umeda dodged the knife by quickly moving over and the knife got stuck in the wooden counter. The girl, frustrated, tried to pull it out but Umeda tackled her and they crashed into a nearby table.
"You better tell me who you are before I beat your face in!" Umeda commanded as she stood up.
"Well the element of suprise is gone..." the girl mumbled before standing up and taking off her mask and coat. She had numerous burn marks on the bottom of her face and neck and wore the Aces armband on her left arm.
"I'm the Ace of Clubs, I am.Officially I'm Sgt Michishige Sayumi ." the girl announced as she dusted her self off "But my victims like to call me...'The Bunny of Death'"
"A 'Bunny of Death'?What's next a 'Poodle of Pain'?" Okai joked as she rolled over laughing
Michishige turned towards the Pvt., visibly annoyed.
"You're Okai, are you?Tanaka's told me so much about you, she has.Strange...I thought you would be cuter..." she said "After I'm done with Umeda here, I'm coming for you, so I wouldn't be laughing right now."
"What's wrong with your face?" Nakajima asked as she stood up, ready to help her Sgt.
"This?I was in south Sapporo in the last year of the war.A terrorist shot a racket launcher towards my position and the explosion burned my face and neck." Michishige explained with a serious face "But I still managed to be the cutest patient in the hospital.How lucky for me, right?"
"What's with this cuteness stuff?Are you gonna fight me or not?" Umeda asked in her fighting stance
"Oh yeah forgot about that.Let me start" the Ace said before she suddenly grabbed Umeda's neck and started to choke her. Nakajima quickly jabbed Michishige in the face, releasing her grip on Umeda and knocking her down. Without a word, Michishige got back up a delivered a hard front kick to Nakajima's stomach, sending her crashing into a table. Umeda used the distraction to deliver a right hook to Michishige's cheek, stunning her.
"Okai!Check on Nakajima now!" Umeda said as she sent several more punches towards Michishige.
"Alright!" Okai said as she got up and ran to help the fallen Corporal.
It seemed like Umeda had the upper hand until the Ace delivered a surprise kick to the Sgt.'s ribs, causing her to stop the attack.
"You know I was never good with punches.Kicks are more my style." Michishige said with a smile
After she said that, the Aces started kicking Umeda relentlessly. Before long, she was holding her sides in pain.
"Hurting, are you?Did you really beat Tanaka?" Michishige asked with a cocky look before getting ready to attack again "Did you know that clubs are associated with war.That's why this special move is called 'The Kicks of War'."
"Maybe if I can somehow grab her legs, I can shut her down" Umeda thought still holding her sides
The Ace delivered a hook kick with the right leg which Umeda tried to block but the blow connected with her face. Michishige tried to do the same kick with her left leg but this time Umeda grabbed and pulled the leg , knocking the Ace off balance.
"Time for some payback!" Umeda announced as she twisted Michishige's leg. The Ace, who just a few seconds earlier had the upper hand, now lay on the ground, screaming in pain.
"No not my legs!Don't break my legs please!!" she cried out as she flailed around "I'll stop!I'll stop!!Just don't hurt my leg."
"Well ok then.You were starting to get on my nerves anyway." she said as she let go and got back up "Now go home or I'll make you go home."
"I'm so so sorry for all the trouble I caused." The Ace bowed and said "I--"
Suddenly Michishige was hit on head and hit the ground with a boom. Haigwara stood behind her with a broken poolstick as Umeda stared down at the crumpled body, shocked.
"That's for ruining my focus" Haigwara said, dropping the stick "I could've beat my own high score..."
Okai got up and walked over to her depressed friend and Umeda walked over to check on Nakajima.
"It's alright, Mai.There'll be other games." Okai said, patting Hagiwara on the back
"You alright, Cpl?" Umeda asked helping Nakajima up.
"Yeah I'm ok.She just got a lucky shot, that's all." Nakajima replied, rubbing her stomach.
"Is she ok?" Okai asked, crouching down to examine Michishige "That was a big hit."
"Yeah.She's probably just knocked out.Let's get out of here." Umeda replied as the group headed towards the door. But before they reached the door, Okai grabbed another poolstick and smashed the jukebox.
"Man I hate this song" she said before dropping the weapon "Now let's go home"
"Hey you guys!Who's gonna pay for all this stuff?" the server yelled but the group had already left.
...
"Hey guys!"
"She beat you too huh?"
"Does that mean I gotta fight now?"
"Yeah I guess so, Kamei"
"Aww man I guess do I'll do it later this week."
"You better go get that head wound checked out."
"I'll do it later.Let's get some sleep before--"
"I told you guys to go to sleep!!You're like little kids!!!"

Ch. 5 - Take your time...and give me some yakiniku
Camp Aki personnel files: Pvt. Hagiwara Mai
- Came from a middle class family in southern Kanagawa
- Is the oldest child
- Is known as an argument starter
- Ranked 5th in basic training
- Chose to be a medic "because it was sounded like a easy job"
- Was chosen to be a Pvt. Okai's spotter because "she's very observant
- Is the youngest member of Platoon C
- One of her sisters is in the Navy and stationed off the coast of Shikoku
It was about 2 days after the fight with Sgt. Michishige at the bar and life was moving on as usual. The Platoon were headed back to the barracks after going to a yakiniku restaurant in Aki.
"Man I think ate about half my weight" Umeda said with a smile and rubbing her belly "I'm glad I brought some leftovers"
"Normally I wouldn't allow food in the barracks but you're lucky I like yakiniku...and the fact that you're kind of cute.Well I fulfilled my yuri moment of the day hahaha" Maimi joked as she pointed at the bag of meat the Sgt. had in her hand "Anyway when we get inside, give me a piece of that stuff, will you?"
But as they approached the gray half moon shaped barracks, Okai noticed a piece of paper posted on the door.
"What's that thing on the door?"she questioned as she ran over to the door "It looks like a letter"
"What?Did the MPs call the hazmat team again?" Hagiwara laughed as she ran to join her friend "Did you leave a egg salad sandwich in there again, Chisa?"
"That only happened once, little kid!And I just forgot to throw it away, that's all." Okai replied as she glared at the medic "Besides, this looks like it's for Sarge"
"Let me see that" Umeda said as Okai gave her the paper
"What's it say, new Sarge?" Suzuki asked gleefully as she looked over her Sergeant's shoulder "Anything about Kappas...or manga...or video games?"
"Nah, it says, 'Dear the lovely Sgt. Umeda, you have defeated half of the Aces.Congratulations!As with Ace tradition, you shall fight me next.I'm the Ace of Hearts, but my name tag says Sgt. the lovely Kamei.The rest of the gang wanted me to attack you head on.But I'm more of a lover than a fighter so...I'll be nice and I give you the option of fighting me when you feel that you're ready.My usual hangout is the old sports field on the north side of the Camp so when you think you're ready, come get me, love.
Sakura iro hatsukoi no iro ne,
Sgt. Kamei Eri aka the Ace of Hearts'" Umeda read as the rest of the platoon crowded around her
"Well, there's Ace number 3" Arihara sighed "Guess we're in for yet another fight..."
"And this girl sounds pretty weirder than my grandma's chickens after I put hot sauce in their food." Nakajima said "Let's just hope that she's defeated quickly like last time"
"That's legal?" Hagiwara asked Nakajima before turning back to Umeda "Anyway, we gotta--hey someone's coming!"
A girl was approaching the group. She was very short, wore no hat (which was odd because everyone on base wore some kind of headgear), and had her hair in pigtails.
"Konbanwa Platoon C!" she said happily "How are you guys this fine evening?"
"Hey Momo-chan how are you?" Suzuki said as she hugged the girl
"Hey Airi-chan!Is this you guys' new sergeant?I haven't properly met her yet." she asked as she walked over to Umeda and bowed "I'm Staff Sergeant Tsugunaga Momoko, sergeant of Platoon B.You can call me Momo or Tsugu-chan or whatever you feel like, new friend."
"I'm Umeda Erika, nice to meet you" the Sgt replied and bowed "You can call me...Erika I guess."
"Was that you who beat up Sgt Michishige in that bar a few days ago?" Tsugunaga asked "I watched you two fight.Congrats on beating her by the way.If I remember the order correctly, you have to fight Kamei next, right?"
"Yeah, she just sent us a letter, see ?" Umeda said as she handed over the letter
"Yep, using lovey-dovey stuff and adding random lyrics from love songs, just like always." Tsugunaga said as she read the letter "This is definitely Kamei-san!"
"What?Do you know her personally, Sgt Tsugunaga?" Yajima asked as she sat down on the barracks' steps.
"No, but I've seen her around before." Momo replied as she gave Umeda's letter back "Cute girl but a little on the crazy side.Anyway it seems she neglected to tell you about the Lucky 30."
"The Lucky 30?What's that?Sounds like a reality show." Okai asked
"No it's not a reality show...but it does sound like one doesn't it?Anyway, they're 30 soldiers that Kamei-san pays to protect her" Momo explained "The leader is a very cute girl named Cpl. Mano.You'll usually find her by Kamei's side."
"Is she pretty strong?" Nakajima asked
"Yeah she's really powerful.She might look small but I heard she took on 5 people at once...and won!That's probably why Kamei hired her." Tsugunaga replied "Or maybe she hired her because they were best friends...I forget why sometimes."
"Well, I can't take on 30 people at once..." Umeda said sadly "Wait!I got a idea! What if I train all of you to fight with me?"
"That's a great idea, Erika-chan!" Momo smiled and said "And I'll check with my Captain and see if Platoon B can help you."
"Great!We need all the help we can get!" Yajima said
"Wait!Why are you gonna try to help us, Momo?The Aces haven't attacked you, have they?" Hagiwara asked, confused
"Oh no not me personally!No no no!" Tsugunaga replied waving her arms in denial "But...they attacked some of my friends and...I hate seeing my friends sad...so I want to stop them from hurting any more people."
"Well that's a good reason" Arhara said
"Want me to go with you to talk to your Captain?" Umeda asked "I can probably convince her to help us."
"Sure!Let's go meet her." Tsugunaga replied happily "And bring that bag of yakiniku.The Captain loves food."
...
The two sergeants approached the Platoon B barracks. Unlike the Platoon C barracks, the Platoon B barracks were quiet and it looked like there was no one inside.
"Is anyone even in there?" Umeda asked, confused
"Of course there's someone in there." Momo replied as she rolled her eyes and opened the door "It is nightime you know?Everyone's at home"
Inside were 5 girls sleeping or chatting. The two sergeants quickly moved towards the Captain's office in the back. The door was locked so Momo loudly knocked on the door.
"Captain, open up!" she yelled "Come on!Open the door or I'll kick it open!"
Suddenly the door flew open. Behind the door was a girl who wasn't much taller than Tsugunaga. She didn't wear her camo jacket and instead had on a blue T-shirt. She also looked like she had just woken up.
"Gosh Tsugu can't you let a girl sleep?" she said angrily as she rubbed her eyes "This better be good."
"I got someone to meet you." Momo replied as she pulled the girl out of the office "Erika-chan, this is--"
"Momo!I'll introduce myself." the girl snapped before turning to Umeda "I'm Cpt Shimizu Saki what do you want?"
"Well I'm SFC Umeda Erika maam.Me and Platoon C are about to fight the Ace of Hearts and need some help with the Lucky 30" Erika said
"So let me guess you want B to help you fight the 30, right?" Shimizu asked and yawned "That's why you woke me up, right?'
"That's right, Captain!So can we help her?" Momo asked "Pleeeeeease??"
"Well..." the Captain said before she looked down at Erika's bag of yakiniku "Give me some of that food and I'll help you"
Erika handed her the bag and the Captain quickly opened it and looked inside.
"This smells good!Alright meet me at the gym tomorrow afternoon and we'll train together.Thanks for the snack!" she said before running back into her office and closing the door.
"Hey!I was gonna eat that..." Umeda mumbled as she headed back to her barracks.

Hey! I noticed this story when you first posted it, but hadn't kept up with it... but this chapter's title intrigued me so I had to check it out more. :lol: You've got an interesting setting there; I'm curious if you're going to do anything with it. And those girls do seem to like to beat each other up a lot! They really need a real enemy to fight! :lol: But then, that's life in some army camps... Speaking of which, you seem to have some experience with military structure and such... which is interesting, but sometimes a civilian like me gets lost in the abbreviations and all. :lol: :oops: Well, just thought I'd give you a bit of support to keep it up, because it looks like you're putting some work into this.
Glad to see the "B Platoon" finally! :lol:
-
lol, comical entrance by captain :heart: dunno that she likes yakiniku :cow:
Chose to be a medic "because it was sounded like a easy job"
lol, i don't think medic is an easy job :P what a silly reason.
now the platoons names make sense, why i'm so slow :lol:
i realized i've heard "Sakura iro hatsukoi no iro ne" part somewhere, it sounds really familiar lol. sakura mankai, one of my favourite song from momusu <3
Thanks for the new chapter :kneelbow: you should write longer chapter, i really like your style of writing.
-
/me unlurks
This is a pretty fun fic. I thought the military would setting would give it a serious theme but it turns out to be wackier that I imagined. :lol:
Love their respective occupations and how Mai and Chisa keeps on getting each others nerves. I can see Airi still smiling while unloading all the rounds of her machine gun on their opponents. XD
Platoon C > Aces/Rokkies :lol:
Yay for Platoon B and Platoon C vs. Kamei and the Lucky 30! XD
Keep it up :thumbsup
-
I didn't even know that Ch. 5 was so short. When I was typing it, it seemed a lot longer :lol: . This is kind of short though because I ran out of stuff to add :lol: Also I meant to introduce the B Platoon earlier but kept forgetting it...but anyway here's the new chapter. Next chapter will be all Chisa and Mai.
Ch. 6 - The Lucky 30 will fall...with sweaty socks!
Camp Aki personnel files - Cpl. Nakajima Saki
- Born in Saitama, raised in rural Gifu
- Sometimes speaks in Mino dialect
- Lived on her grandmother's farm for 5 years
- Has a older sister and younger sister
- Wears a red headband for unknown reason
- Is a Hokkaido War veteran, fighting at Sapporo and Muroran
- Used to be stationed at Camp Semi in Miyazaki
- Doesn't know how to aim a mortar correctly. Once blew up a empty supply truck because of it.
Platoon C arrived at the gym at around 11am. The gym was a small, white building on the east side of the camp. It was filled with old exercise equipment that had to be at least 10 years old and were covered with dust. But other than that, the rest of the gym was remarkably clean. Over by the entrance to the gym shower, Platoon B waited patiently.
"Finally you get here!" Shimizu said, arms crossed "I was about to retire waiting for you.I'm..."
"Hey everybody!" Momo said, pushing her Captain out of the way "You guys ready for your training?"
"Sure are!" Okai replied "So what are we gonna be doing?Pushups or situps?"
"Neither" a Platoon B girl that was standing next to Shimizu said coldly. She wore the normal combat uniform but carried a combat knife with some words carved into it. "We're gonna run around the camp 4 times.That's about...2 miles."
"Wait!First of all, two miles?We're not training for the Olympics, lady." Okai replied angrily "Second of all, who are you?"
"I'm Cpl. Natsuyaki Miyabi, main rifleman of Platoon B, punk" the girl snapped and approached Okai "And we're gonna run 2 miles to build up our endurance, got that?"
"Whoa whoa whoa, calm down Miya" another B girl said holding Natsuyaki back "Save the fighting for the Lucky 30"
"Alright then, Sudou.I won't hit her." the Cpl. said before turning to Okai "But you better not make me mad, punk.I didn't wake up at 6am to deal with people like you.I came to train." She then headed back over to Platoon B.
"What's her problem..." Chisato mumbled as she walked over to Hagiwara
"So anyway after the run, what are we doing?" Umeda asked Momo
"Then we're gonna practice some different fighting styles.After that I think Captain might tell us more about the Lucky 30." Tsugunaga replied "She knows a lot more about than I do"
"Ok" Erika said before gathering Platoon C up "Team it looks like we have a full day ahead of us.So let's get this all done and then I'll go get us some pizza."
"Aw why'd you do that, Boss?" Hagiwara whined "I can't think run and food at the same time..."
"You want a Snickers?" Suzuki laughed as she tortured the poor girl by eating the candy bar in front of her with a big smile
"That's not funny..." Hagiwara replied, rubbing her growling stomach
"Cue 'Rocky' music!" Arihara yelled
The two platoons moved out to the front gate of the camp and started the run which soon became a race to see who could catch up to Lt. Yajima, who was clearly the fastest of the 14 soldiers, putting a large gap in between her and everyone else.
By time the run had finished, it was about 1:30pm and the soldiers headed to the large field in front of the gym.
"Ok for those of you who don't know, this is PFC Tokunaga Chinami and we are gonna teach you different fighting styles." Momo announced pointing to the girl next to her who wore the combat uniform with a large red book in her pocket.
"Wait Tokunaga?You mean the same Tokunaga who won the Yokosuka Fighting Tournament a few years back?" Umeda asked "The one from Camp Toshida?"
"Yeah that's me.Wh...no it can't be." Tokunaga said before getting closer to Erika "You're Ume-chan from Camp Hayama.I never thought I see you again"
The two then hugged each other as the rest of the soldiers looked on with suprise.
"Ummm, Erika.Won't you introduce us to your friend?" Maimi asked
"Oh yeah sorry.Tokunaga and I fought in the Yokosuka Fighting Tournament about 3 years ago.She won 1st and I won 2nd" Umeda explained with a arm still around Tokunaga "During the tournament, we became great buddies"
"Yeah after that, we went back to our separate bases and lost contact...because someone didn't tell me that they changed their number..." Tokunaga said before glaring at Erika
"It was an accident.I just forgot to call and tell you..." Erika replied, slightly embarassed
"Yeah sure...Anyway, I'm gonna teach you guys the art of Karate, which is my fighting style.First you get into the fighting stance like this.Make sure it isn't showy." Chinami said as she showed the group the stance "Then you punch like 'Huu!' and then like 'Haa!'.Ok then you try."
The rest of the troops followed along with chants of "Huu!" and "Haa!".Then at about 4pm, Cpt. Shimizu took over and showed them some basic Sambo, her fighting style.
"These moves can break arms and legs if you use them right." she said after using a dummy from the nearby gym to demonstrate moves. "Hey, Umeda why don't you show them your fighting style, Miss 2nd place fighter?"
"You mean Taekwondo?That's for another day, Captain." Umeda declined "Why don't we go eat something?My stomach's killing me."
The excited group of soldiers headed to the local pizza restaurant. They sat down at the big table in the middle of the building.
"I can't wait to eat.I can't remember the last time I ate." Okai said as she sat down
"You ate this morning, stupid." Hagiwara replied "What are you too stupid to have a memory?"
"Shut up before I kick your teeth in..." Okai growled
"I dare you to do it." Hagiwara replied with a smile, provoking Okai even more
"So Captain why don't you tell us more about the Lucky 30?" Erika said, trying to divert attention away from the argument
"Are you paying for this meal?" Captain asked
"I guess..." Erika replied
"Well since you're paying...ok" Shimizu said with a smile "I'm sure that Momo told you that Cpl. Mano leads the 30, right?"
"Yeah she told about her already." Okai replied as she ordered the pizza
"Ok then that saves breath.Anyway, the 30 is divided into 3 groups." Captain explained "10 use stealth attacks, 10 use assault attacks, and 10 use swords."
"Swords?Can't they just use fists like normal people?" Okai groaned
"Trust me, I've seen these guys.They are not, by any means, normal. The last person to fight them was never heard from again..." Captain explained
"I miss Ishimura..." Natsuyaki said sadly
"Me too...but hopefully beating these guys will be perfect revenge for her!" Momo said optimistically
"What happened to Ishimura, Cpt. Shimizu?" Arihara asked
"Pvt. Ishimura thought she could take on Kamei, Mano, and the Lucky 30 at the same time. She never got close to Kamei because the Lucky 30 attacked her first.She bravely fought them, beating at least 10 of them. But the other 20 overwhelmed her and she disappeared." Shimizu recalled "We don't know what they did to her after that. But, considering that the 30 are pretty psycho, we assumed the worst."
"Don't the MPs hear about this stuff?" Hagiwara asked "They usually hear about everything that goes on around here."
"Well they don't hear about this stuff, kid" Natsuyaki replied "The 30 operate secretly.By day, they're normal soldiers and by night, they're basically assassins"
"Like ninjas?" Maimi asked
"You could say that.But they're more like new-age ninjas." Momo replied "They even dress weird like ninjas."
"We'll need some more training before we take them on" Natsuyaki said "But if all goes right, we can beat them on our first try."
"I hope so" Nakajima said "I just wanna get them and the Aces out of here.By the way, how do you know so much about these guys anyway, Captain?"
"After Ishimura disappeared, I tried to get all of the info I could about the 30." Shimizu explained "Luckily there was an ex-30 member here in town who knew about them.He said that they find the craziest people on base when they need positions filled.But talking about those guys is making me hungry.Is the food coming?"
"There's the pizza now." Yajima said pointing at the approaching waiter "Let's eat.I'm starving"
"Let's make it quick though!These sweaty socks are killing me!" Arihara laughed
"There goes my appetite..." Suzuki said pushing away her plate
"Mine's too" Natsuyaki said
"Not mine" Momo said with a smile
Then the group started to eat and no one seemed to notice that Hagiwara and Okai were once again fighting next to the table.
"Why are you hitting yourself?" Okai repeated as she made Hagiwara punch herself
-
The two platoons moved out to the front gate of the camp and started the run which soon became a race to see who could catch up to Lt. Yajima
as expected from the hpkids elite :D
First you get into the fighting stance like this.Make sure it isn't showy."
lol, i know that song!
"Are you paying for this meal?" Captain asked
captain is such a leecher >:D
"Why are you hitting yourself?" Okai repeated as she made Hagiwara punch herself
lol, what these two are?
Thanks for the new chapter! :mon inluv:

Here's the next chapter a little later than I expected. I like this radio show chapter so I'll do another one soon.
Chapter 6.5-The MC Chisa/DJ Maimai radio show
[Plays opening theme]
<Chisa> "Welcome to the MC Chisa/DJ Maimai show here on FM Aki, the best station in Camp Aki, Aki town, and the surrounding area.I'm Pvt. Okai Chisato aka MC Chisa"
<Maimai> "I'm Pvt. Hagiwara Mai aka DJ Maimai and along with our producer Lt. Yajima Maimi..."
<Yajima> "Hey everyone!"
< Maimai> "...and our special guest host, Sgt 1st Class Umeda Erika..."
<Umeda> "How's everyone doing out there?"
<Maimai> "...we're gonna give the best show in all the land"
<Chisa> "Alright then. Now that the introduction's over, let's get on with the show. First we have some gossip from around camp. The first one involves Platoon C's own Cpl. Arihara Kanna and PFC Suzuki Airi. Apparently, they were sighted at a nightclub in town and Arihara was hugging and touching on each other."
<Maimai> "I also heard that they went a love hotel after going to the club.Under the current military rules, dating in public is not allowed."
<Umeda> "I have the pictures right here if you want to see them."
<Yajima> "I don't think they were dating.From these pictures, it seems like they were just hanging out. We'll have to see what happens. But if they are dating, then I torture them"
<Umeda> "How are you gonna torture them, Maimi?"
<Yajima> "Easy. I'll make them listen to Aa! songs over and over"
<Maimai> "Hey, I like First Kiss and Masayume!"
<Yajima> "But would you listen to them all day though?"
<Maimai> "I see your point..."
<Chisa> "Ok next up. We have reports that Camp Aki may be getting foreign troops soon."
<Maimai> "No, it's not a invasion!We may be getting troops from China or Korea so we can work on military exercises together. Oh how I wish I could go to a foreign country. Maybe one with a beach or one with rainforests or something"
<Chisa> "I would like to be on a beach too. The sand between my toes. The sea breeze flowing through my hair. The--"
<Maimai> "Who said I'd take you?"
[Smack!]
<Maimai> "Ow! I was just kidding...gosh you're so serious sometimes"
<Umeda> "Ok then. Let's play a song now. Up next we have 2 special guests"
[Plays Special Generation]
<Yajima> Alright we're back and...Chisa and Maimai are still...fighting. Guys stop fighting!! We're back on!!"
<Chisa> "Sorry about that. Our guests are the sniper team from Platoon B and since our loveable author Slasha couldn't find a place to introduce this team in the story, he decided to put it here."
<Umeda> "Stop talking about the story, it confuses readers and then they start asking too many questions."
<Maimai> "Well here's the special guest. The 2nd best sniper team on base. Pvt. Sugaya Risako and Cpl. Kumai Yurina.
<Sugaya> "Who said we're 2nd best? We still hit more targets then you guys."
<Kumai> "Don't start fights, Socko. Konbanwa to all the people out there in radioland.
<Chisa> "So what have you guys been lately?"
<Sugaya> "We've been just working everyday. You know shooting targets, doing exercises, sneaking into the officer's club--oops!
<Yajima> "What was that last part, Pvt.?"
<Sugaya> "Doing exercises?"
<Yajima> "Never mind..."
<Umeda> "So which one of you is the sniper?"
<Kumai> "That's me."
<Umeda> "And you're the spotter, Sugaya-san?"
<Sugaya> "Yeah...but I wanted to be a sniper though"
<Kumai> "But I have better aim and plus you said you didn't want to work a lot."
<Sugaya> "Whatever..."
<Chisa> "Wow you look like you're pretty tall, Kumai-san. Can I stand by you for a second?"
<Kumai> "Ok then."
<Maimai> "Wow Chisa you look like a midget compared to Kumai-san."
[Smack!]
<Chisa> "Shut up little kid! You're not much taller."
<Yajima> "Stop fighting before I turn off your mics!"
<Maimai> "Sorry, Maimi. Anyway here's the interview session of the show. Today's theme is summer memories. Do you have any summer memories, Sugaya?"
<Sugaya> "Where I come from, there's a summer festival every year. I like running around town in my yukata. It's so cute!"
<Kumai> "Didn't you tell me you got caught breaking into a shrine back home?"
<Sugaya> "I don't seem to know what you are talking about."
<Kumai> "But you gave me a picture. I think I have it in my pocket."
[Smack!]
<Sugaya> "Don't do that...and stop laughing Okai"
<Chisa> "I'm MC Chisa, remember?"
<Sugaya> "Whatever...at least I don't sing songs about handballs"
<Maimai> "At least we don't wear monkey suits..."
<Umeda> "I can feel the tension in the air...but this is a family show, so stop fighting or I'll hit you."
<Yajima> "Let's play a song before everyone kills each other."
[Plays Tokkaiko Junjou]
<Yajima> "Yay we're back! Now Kumai-san, tell us your about your summer memories"
<Kumai> "Well when I was growing up, I went to my mom's hometown in Kumamoto in summer. It was next to Mt. Aso, so we always had races to see who could try to get up the volcano faster."
<Umeda> "That sounds dangerous"
<Kumai> "Oh trust me! My grandmother's more dangerous than that volcano."
<Sugaya> "Show them the picture, Yuri."
<Kumai> "Oh yeah! This is a picture of a policeman after my grandma got finshed with him"
<Maimai> "That must hurt!"
<Chisa> "I bet it doesn't hurt more than this"
[Smack]
<Maimai> "I'll kill you, Chisa"
<Chisa> "Bring it on!"
<Umeda> "Calm down guys!"
<Maimai> "I'm gonna terminate you!"
<Chisa> "You know big words. What a suprise!"
<Maimai> "You'll pay for that!"
<Yajima> "Uh...it doesn't seem like this will end quickly. I guess that means the show's over...thanks for coming, Kumai and Sugaya.
<Kumai> "Get off me, Socko!"
<Yajima> "It looks like those two are fighting too. Erika, let's get out here before we get involved too."
<Umeda> "I'm with you on that"
<Yajima> "If you want to send in mail for our next guest, Cpt. Shimizu, let us know. Slasha might actually answer it on the next show if he's not too lazy. See you guys later on the MC Chisa/DJ Maimai radio show."
[Plays Ending Theme]
It's true. You can post questions for Captain and I'll answer them on the next radio show.
-
I like Aa! songs! :cry:
Songs about handballs?! and Kumaichan and Risako's summer memories :rofl:
Looks like Platoon B's sniper duo like to hurt each other too :lol:
Forgot to comment on the previous chap...Manoeri is the leader of the 30?! :O
-
Oh, already finish reading the new chapter this morning but forgot to comment :D
I like this radio skit, but those sniper and spotter duos are spoiling it lol.
Is handball song: rakuten eagles? lol
Sadly, I don't have question to ask about captain yet :(
Keep up the good work!
-
wordsworth - I didn't mean for Manoeri to be evil. I just wanted to fit her in somewhere and the Lucky 30 didn't have a leader so I thought "Evil Mano couldn't hurt :lol: . Also I just wanted to make a Aa! reference :lol: .
ziggurat - Actually I didn't want Kumai to be a fighter. She's more of a...peacemaker, I guess. But Socko always wants to fight, so Yuri has to stop the messes she makes...but Chisa and Mai are still the fighting duo, though. Glad you like the radio show.
Ch. 7 - Night of Fire
It had been two weeks since Platoons B and C started training to fight Kamei, Mano, and the Lucky 30. They now knew basic fighting skills and had built up their endurance. Today was the agreed day to start their attack, so that morning, they met up at the gym to discuss their plans.
"So what time do we strike?" Captain asked
"I think we should attack tonight." Erika replied
"Why don't we just attack now?" Okai asked, confused at Erika's reply "We can get in there, beat 'em up, and get out"
"But we can use the darkness to our advantage" Umeda pointed out "We can be like Batman...only without the Batsignal"
"You know, she has a point" Momo said "They probably expect us to come during to the day."
"Alright then. Nightime it is!" Shimizu answered
"Wait a second, Shimizu. Don't we have to go to the officers party tonight?" Yajima remembered "How are we gonna explain that to everyone?"
"Don't worry, I'll just say we both have a cold" Shimizu said calmly
"A cold in summer?" Natsuyaki asked in her usual cold way "Captain, you really are crazy!"
"Yeah, I'm crazy...and hungry" Shimizu said, rubbing her stomach "Let's go eat...Umeda, you're paying."
"Why me?" Erika groaned as they headed into town
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was a warm, humid night. As the two platoons reached the entrance to the old sports field, they stopped to observe their surroundings. The old sports field hadn't been used for at least 10 years. The old bleachers and buildings were covered with spiderwebs and dust. The grass on the field, which used to dark green, was now a greenish-brown color.
"Look around team" Yajima said "Out there...is Kamei, Mano, and the 30"
"If we can beat them, we might find out what happened to Ishimura" Momo said
"Well what are we waiting for?" Tokunaga said, already moving towards the field "Let's get going!"
"Hold on, Ms Yokosuka Fighting Champion, we can't just run into a battle like that." Natsuyaki said, grabbing Chinami's collar and pulling her back "We don't know what they planned for us out there. Someone throw a can or something out there"
Sugaya picked a can and tossed onto the field. As the can landed, it tripped a wire and the ground collapsed, exposing a large hole. The group walked over to the hole and looked inside.
"See?I knew they planned something" Natsuyaki said in a "I told you so" way
As the group looked down into the hole, Umeda heard something strange. She looked up to see 10 soldiers in black clothing watching them closely.
"Hey guys, we have company" she said as she alerted her comrades
"Those must be part of the Lucky 30" Shimizu suggested
One of the strange soldiers stepped forward and annouced with a smile:
"We are the assault team of the Lucky 30 and we've been expecting you guys. Now prepare to die"
The assualt team pulled out various weapons including bats, poles, and chains. They ran towards B and C recklessly, with one 30 member tripping another wire, and falling into a hole. The group fought back against the assault team, quickly disarming them and fighting them hand to hand. While Platoon B basically had the upper hand, Platoon C, the less experienced platoon, struggled for a few seconds but was able to beat their attackers. In less than 5 minutes, the assualt team was in ruins, with some knocked out and some in too much pain to move.
"Wait a second guys" Shimizu said as she counted the fallen opponents "There are supposed to be 30 people here. Where are the other 20 guys?"
"You can ask this sad excuse for a soldier..." Natsuyaki replied pointing to the 30 member stuck in a hole
"You! Where is the rest of the 30?" Umeda asked the trapped soldier, arms crossed
"They're not here." the 30 member answered "Now get me outta here or your dead"
"You know, I wouldn't be making empty threats if I was in your situation" Okai said
"Yeah I would be begging for forgiveness, like a boyfriend that got caught cheating." Hagiwara said
"I don't make empty threats" the member said before pulling out a remote and pushing the button "I just turned on a bomb in the old locker rooms. The hostage in there will be dead in 5 minutes. Try to get her if you dare."
"Platoon C, follow me! We gotta save that hostage!" Yajima said as the platoon ran towards the old locker room
"We'll stay here and talk to this kid" Shimizu said
Platoon C broke down the door and stormed into the locker room.
"Is anyone in here?" Arihara yelled "Hello?"
The group heard mumbling from the janitors closet.
"Is someone there?" Nakajima asked as the Platoon stood by the door
"Help! I can;t move!" the voice on the other side replied
"Stand back" Umeda yelled as she kicked down the door. Behind the door, tied up, was a girl. The Platoon quickly untied her and helped her stand up. She looked very skinny, like she hadn't been getting enough food. She also had various bruises and cuts on her arms and face.
"What's your name, soldier?" Yajima asked
"Pvt. Ishimura...Maiha, Platoon B, maam" the girl said as she weakly saluted
"We gotta get you out of here, Private" Umeda said as the Platoon rushed out of the building and over to Platoon B, who were still standing by the hole and arguing with the 30 member.
"Ishimura-san!They didn't kill you!" Momo said as she ran to hug her old friend
"Momo-chan...long time...no see..." Ishimura replied weakly
"What did they do to you?" Tokunaga asked
"They...didn't feed me...and they...tried to make me...into one of them" she answered
"Ishimura, we need to get you to a hos--" Nakajima said before the bomb in the locker room exploded in a orange fireball that lit up the night sky.
"Nice explosion" Natsuyaki told the 30 member "Now that your bomb has failed, what are you gonna do?"
"I--uh--" the member said as he tried to think of an answer
"Hah! You got nothing to say" Momo said pointing and laughing
"Well did he tell anything important while we were gone?" Arihara asked Shimizu
"Yeah he said the rest of the 30 are about to set this whole base on fire" Captain answered "We gotta stop them"
"Let's go call the MPs. They'll help us." Yajima said as she pulled out her phone "Hello! Police! Someone's about to set the whole camp on fire"
"Really? I'll believe it when I see it..." the skeptical police officer on the other side said "Huh? What's that smell? Smells like...smoke! It really is a fire!! The door's locked! I can't get out! I can't get--" Then the line went dead.
From the sports field, the Platoon saw several fires spread around the Camp.
"It's too late..." Momo said as she dropped to her knees "We couldn't stop them in time..."
"Everyone's gonna die..." Nakajima said sadly before a drop of water hit her face "Did you feel something right now?"
"It feels like...rain!" Umeda said as she looked up at the sky. It started to rain heavily, which affected the flames.
"And it's putting out the fires! How lucky are we?" Shimizu said pointing to the buildings.
"Now that those fires are going out, let's go find the rest of the 30!" Yajima yelled
"What do we do with this guy?" Arihara said pointing in the hole
"Leave him there. Someone will find him soon" Shimizu replied "Now let's go!"
"Wait! What was that? Don't leave me in here!" the 30 member said trying to gain attention as the group walked away "It's cold and lonely! I'm sorry for the bomb! Forgive me!!"

Oh I see. I like kuma-chan like that :D
------------------------
Hahaha, epic.
At first I thought this chapter will be like a serious battle event. But look like it gets lighter in the end :D
Captain can't stop from getting hungry, isn't she ? :D
Maiha!
Love your humor, keep up the ideas flowing!

First Egg appearance in this chapter and the first ZYX reference.
Chapter 8 - Night of Fire vol 2
Camp Aki database - 1st Lt. Yajima Maimi
- Comes from a well to do family in Saitama
- Is the youngest child in her family
- Her grandfather was an Army Major and her father was an Air Force Captain
- A Hokkaido War veteran, fighting at Hakodate and Sapporo
- While in Sapporo, defended Hokkaido University from over 300 enemies
- Graduated 2nd in her class from officer school
- Has expert markmanship
Platoons B and C had reached the middle of the camp. Every building that surrounded them was damaged somewhat.
"Oh they destroyed the gift shop..." Okai said pointing at a burning building
"Really? I was gonna buy a snow globe for my mom..." Hagiwara said
"We got more serious things to attend to!!" Natsuyaki growled at the two
"Ok those other 20 can be anywhere around here." Shimizu explained "Let's split up. Me, Momo-chan, Sgt. Umeda and Lt Yajima will head this way towards the barracks. The rest of you can go that way towards the cafeteria."
"Let's go guys!" Nakajima said as she led her group towards the cafeteria area.
"I think Barracks Z, Y, and X are near here. Let's go check them out." Momo said
The four soldiers reached the barracks of Platoon's Z, Y, and X. These three platoons were incredibly messy and the ground outside their barracks were covered with trash.
"Eww, this place smells horrible..." Erika groaned as she stepped over a puddle of what she hoped was water.
"Yeah these guys don't ready clean up, huh?" Shimizu said shaking a piece of paper off of her boot "But anyway we'll split up and head into each of the barracks. Me and Momo we go into Z, Yajima-san will head into Y, and Umeda will head into X."
"We'll meet back here into about 10 minutes, ok?" Maimi said before entering the Platoon Y barracks.
"Good luck, Umeda-san" Captain said as she and Momo entered the Platoon Z barracks.
Erika opened the door to Platoon X's barracks cautiously. At the other end on the barracks, there were 3 people surrounding Platoon X, which was tied up. As Erika creeped closer to the group, she tripped over a bag, alerting the strange people. Two of the strange people quickly surrounded Umeda on both sides as the apparent leader stepped toward her. She wore a big black hood covering her face.
"You must be Umeda" the leader said
"Yeah. Who are you guys and what are you doing to X?" Erika asked as she closely watched the two people beside her.
"I'm PFC Saho Akari, personal assistant of Cpl. Mano and leader of the stealth squad of the Lucky 30. We're just having some fun with these guys" the leader said as she kicked a X member in the face "You look like you might be fun to play with. Tie her up, guys"
The two people beside Erika suddenly lunged towards her. Erika responded by delivering a side kick to the 30 member on her left, knocking him out the window.
"Hey! That was a new window!" a X member yelled out "Now I gotta pay for that"
"Shut up, Fujita. You're ruining the fight" another X member said
"Ichiro! No! You'll pay for that" the 30 member on Erika's right said
She punched the member on her right in the face, stunning him. As the member punched back, Erika dodged it, grabbed his head and kneed him in the face, breaking his nose and knocking him out.
"Impressive" Saho said as she clapped "Now I get to kill you all by myself"
Saho threw off her hood to reveal her true outfit. She wore a red basketball jersey, black shorts and a brown cowboy hat.
"What's with the cowboy hat?" Erika asked
"Cowboy hats are in style this season" Saho replied showing off her hat
"It looks stupid..." Erika mumbled
"What did you say?! I'll beat you to a pulp" Saho said as she ran towards Erika
Saho threw several jabs towards Umeda as she tried to find a moment to fight back. Around punch #20, Erika saw an opening and punched Saho in the gut. The blow stopped the punches and left Saho gasping for breath.
"Well you know the right places to punch" she said as she recovered "But can you beat this?"
Saho then started a left hook.
"A hook. Too easy." Erika thought before she felt something hit her from the right. The force of the blow knocked her down.
"Haha I didn't think you would fall for a simple fake" Saho said with her arms crossed and a smile on her face as she stood over Erika "Master Mano will be most pleased when she hears I killed you."
"I didn't fall for your fake...you fell for mine" Erika said before using her leg to pull Saho's feet from under her. Saho hit the ground with a bang. Erika then held Saho's arm behind her back.
"Now where's Mano?" she asked pulling her opponent's arm
"I won't tell you..." Saho said as she groaned out in pain "No matter what you do..."
"What about if I make you watch anime all day?"
"Uh depends...is it Yaoi?"
"Yep"
"Ok then she should be at the officers club. Now where's my Yaoi?"
Erika leaned in and said in Saho's ear, "I lied, I have no Yaoi anime"
"Noooooooo!!!!!" Saho said as she passed out from the shock and the pain in her arm.
"Hey can you untie us?" a X member asked
"Sure" Erika replied as she untied Platoon X.
"Thanks for that" one X member said "That girl was freaking crazy!"
"I'm off to find Mano" Erika said as she walked away from the group
"Punch her once for us, Umeda-san" a member said
"And one more thing. Clean up this place. It's smells like a city dump." She said before opening the door and left.
"What's she talking about 'clean up'?" one X member asked before looking to his right "Hey! Is that a rat or a dog?"
"Why don't you go touch it, Hashimoto? Maybe you can keep it as a pet." the member next to him chuckled.
-
Akari?! Of all the eggs?!! And she likes yaoi?! :rofl:
Akari is cute though. :wub:
-
lmao Yaoi. XD

-
I got distracted at ringo-hime signature while trying to write a reply -_-"
This new chapter is priceless :D
I'm waiting for Akari's close friend to make an appearance :3
I wonder why Erika try to step in a puddle of water if that one isn't a mud. Just for fun?
Thanks for the new chapter :D

No update today but I'm working on the next chapter now.
Today, since I'm this far in the story, I'm going to talk about the orgins of this story.
You're probably wondering "Why does he know so much about military structure and rank?" Simple answer: It's in my blood. My parents are both military veterans. Also I live next to a military base now. So, I grew up learning about military stuff, watching military movies, and reading books about wars (WWII is my favorite subject)
Now you're wondering "What does have to do with the Kids?" I don't think that I'm the only one who's noticed the lack of fanfics involving not just here but everywhere on the interweb. So since my favorite H!P group is a Kids group (C-ute), I decided to make a fanfic featuring the Kids as the main characters. So one day I thought "What could the fanfic be about? Romance? No. Adventure? Nah. Paranormal? Maybe. Military? Definitely.
So I thought about putting the Kids in the middle of the war. Maybe one day...but too gory for now. I decided to put them on a base in the middle of nowhere aka Aki, Iwate. I wondered how everyone would accept it? "They'll reject me" "This won't turn out good..." "I'm so nervous..." But I was so glad when I received positive reviews.
Now I'm on Ch. 8, I'm starting to wonder what's going to happen after the Aces arc. Maybe I should keep the story going...or I could end it right there. Any suggestions?
-
I say KEEP IT GOING!!! I enjoy reading it! :)
-
wordsworth - I just picked a random egg out to be Ume's opponent :lol: . Could've been any one of them (Except Yuuka or Asuna)
ringo-hime - Yeah the Aces are rokkies
ziggurat - I said that she hoped the puddle was water. It could've been some other liquid. By close friend, do you mean Yuuka? I'm planning on her showing up in a future chapter.
CKD - I thought about it and I'll keep it going after the Aces arc. Thanks for the support! BTW I didn't even know you read this fic. I wonder who else is lurking out there...[Plays Twlight Zone music]
Ch 8.5 - The MC Chisa/DJ Maimai show
[Plays opening music]
<Chisa> "Good evening to all of you out there in radioland! This is the MC Chisa/DJ Maimai show. I'm MC Chisa!
<Maimai> "And I'm DJ Maimai! How are you guys? Once again our guest host is our loveable Sgt. Umeda"
<Umeda> "Hey everyone"
<Chisa> "And our producer Lt. Yajima is here too."
<Yajima> "Hey guys"
<Chisa> "Ok now that we're done with the intros, let's get to the show. What have been doing lately, Maimai?"
<Maimai> "Well my sister came to visit a few days ago"
<Umeda> "You mean the Navy one?"
<Maimai> "Yep"
<Yajima> "What rank is she? What's her job?"
<Maimai> "Seaman Apprentice and she works with Navy helicopters"
<Chisa> "Hey Maimai..."
[Smack!]
<Maimai> "No jokes about her rank ok? This is a family friendly show!"
<Chisa> "I didn't even say anything yet, little kid"
<Umeda> "She probably read your mind..."
<Maimai> "Yep, I'm psychic."
<Chisa> "Really? Did you predict this?"
[Double smack!]
<Maimai> "Ow..."
<Yajima> "So should we play a song now?"
<Umeda> "Yeah, probably."
<Chisa> "Alright then. Let's play a song and we'll be back with our guest"
[Plays Piriri to Yukou]
<Yajima> "Ok we're back"
<Chisa> "You're probably wondering why we played that song"
<Maimai> "Because it's old?"
<Chisa> "No"
<Maimai> "Because of the hair in the PV?"
<Chisa> "No stupid! Because our loveable author Slasha has it stuck in his head and can't stop humming it."
<Umeda> "Me neither. It's so addictive."
<Chisa> "Yeah it's a good song. Anyway what do we do now?"
<Yajima> "Let's introduce our guest for today, Cpt Shimizu Saki!"
<Captain> "Evening everyone"
<Umeda> "Hey Cpt. how are you?"
<Captain> "Really, really hungry...like always"
<Maimai> "I thought you'd be hungry so I made you a bento"
<Captain> "Thanks!"
<Chisa> "Hey that bento looks familiar...You stole my food, little kid! I'll kill you!!"
[Strangles Maimai]
<Yajima> "Stop it, you two"
<Umeda> "Anyway Captain, how do you feel about the story so far?"
<Captain> "I'm glad we're getting closer to fighting Mano"
<Yajima> "Yeah I can't wait to pound her into the ground"
<Umeda> "What have you been up to lately?"
<Captain> "You know leading Platoon B and hanging out in town"
<Yajima> "Oh what have you been doing in town?"
<Captain> "I've been eating at every restaurant in town trying to find a favorite"
<Yajima> "Any luck finding one?"
<Captain> "I really like the Italian restaurant...but then again I like the Mexican restaurant"
<Umeda> "Have you tried that new sushi bar?"
<Captain> "Yeah I can't go there anymore. They banned me."
<Yajima> "Why?"
<Captain> "Long story..."
<Umeda> "Anyway you wanna play a song, Captain?"
<Captain> "Sure. Which button do I push? This one?"
<Umeda> "No! Don't pus--"
[Static]
<Yajima> "Sorry about that. Captain pushed the power button"
<Captain> "Sorry everyone. This is the right button"
[Plays Dschinghis Khan]
<Umeda> "We're back"
<Yajima> "And it seems that Chisa and Maimai have stopped fighting"
<Maimai> "Yeah we're done fighting...for now"
[Angry glare]
<Yajima> "Wow the tension is thick in here...which means it's time to go. Thanks for coming Captain"
<Captain> "You're welcome. Thanks for the food too."
<Umeda> "Who's our guest for next time?"
<Yajima> "Nakki's not doing anything"
<Umeda> "Ok then. Nakajima's our guest next time"
<Yajima> "See you guys later"
-
By close friend, do you mean Yuuka?
fufufu, of course :3
----------------------------------------------------
hehe, captain going on "food appreciation tour". Can't really imagine her eating all day with her small body. Beside chisato smacking maimai, this seem like a short chapter :kekeke:
Keep it going! Maybe after defeating mano eri, they can go for a big scale assault on an enemy territory :glasses:
-
Seaman Apprentice. I get that one. :rofl:
-
@wordsworth: I was just waiting to put that joke somewhere in this story :lol:
@ziggurat: I bet Captain really can eat a lot of food. Big things come in small packages, you know?
Ok I make a reference to one of my favorite doramas in this chapter. If you haven't watched it, you should. It's pretty good.
Ch 9 - Mano-a-Mano
Camp Aki Files - PFC. Suzuki "Kappa" Airi
- From northern Gifu, raised in Chiba
- Parents were on the Japanese national golf team
- Oldest child in the family
- Fought in Sapporo during the war
- Almost always has a huge smile although it's not known why
- Was once asked to be in the military band but rejected the offer because she wanted to be on the battlefield
Erika walked out of the Company X barracks where Maimi, Cpt. Shimizu, and Momo were waiting. It was raining steadly as she met up with her friends.
"Hey Erika you're back!" Maimi said "Did you have any trouble?"
"Nothing I couldn't handle" Erika said dusting herself off "How about you guys?"
"Me and Momo-chan took on four guys. But we split up so it was 2 on 1" Shimizu said
"That made it a little easier for us" Momo continued "Those guys were pretty easy, though."
"I fought three guys but they were pretty easy too so I didn't have any real problems" Maimi said
"Well the girl I fought said that she knows where Mano is" Erika said
"Really? Where?" Tsugunaga asked, surprised
"At the Officers' club" Erika replied
"We gotta tell the others! Let's go!" Shimizu said
The group ran towards the cafeteria area and met up with Nakajima's team, who where talking to a member of the Lucky 30's sword team.
"This sword looks too cheap to be real" Natsuyaki said as she held the member's sword
"Oh it's real.I bought it from this sword maker in Aichi." the member, who had several bruises and a bleeding nose, reassurred her "It's one of my prized possessions"
"Are you sure it's real?" Natsuyaki asked "I'm sure it won't break if I do this"
Natsuyaki slammed the member's sword on a nearby rock, snapping it in half.
"Whhhyyy?!?!?" the member yelled as he fainted
"Wow you're evil, Miyabi" Tokunaga said as she walked over to check on the 30 member "Is this guy ok?"
"He's ok. He's just in shock" Hagiwara replied as she checked his pulse
"Hey guys, Sarge and Lt. Yajima are coming" Okai said
"Lt Yajima. New Sarge. Momo-chan. Shimizu. You're ok" Suzuki said as she ran and hugged Umeda "You guys look like you had a real big fight"
"Nothing too hard, Airi. How did you guys do?" Erika replied
"We had to fought those sword guys." Arihara explained "They were hard at first, but once you make them lose the swords, they're pretty easy"
"Did you guys find out where Mano is?" Nakajima asked
"Sure did. She's at the Officers' club" Momo replied "We gotta stop her before she hurts someone"
B and C platoons ran towards the Officers' club. The building was slightly damaged by the fire and there were unconscious soldiers laying in the field outside the building.
"Ok guys Mano's gotta be inside there. She's probab--" Erika said before she heard laughing. The group looked up at the roof of the Officers' Club and saw a girl in a blue seifuku and holding a sword pointing and laughing at them.
"You guys must be pretty strong if you beat the entire Lucky 30" the girl said
"Oh my god...we're getting laughed at by a anime character..." Natsuyaki mumbled under her breath
"I heard that! I'm not a anime character!" the girl said "I am Cpl. Mano Erina, leader of the Lucky 30, and you must be Platoon B and C."
"That's us" Erika said as she stepped forward "Don't you know that you have to wear the right uniform on base? This isn't high school!"
"Haha funny, you must be Umeda" Mano smiled and said "Are you trying to be like Shiiba Ayumu from LIFE and fight against the bullies? That's so cute."
Mano jumped down from the roof and approached the group.
"It's a shame that I got to kill you all" Mano said "You're all very pretty"
"I'm tired of this stupid dialouge. Let's beat her senseless" Okai yelled as she ran towards Mano. Chisato delivered a flying side kick to the 30 leader's chest, knocking her down.
"Man, she was annoying..." Okai said as she turned towards the group and dusted herself off. She didn't see that the attack had failed to effect Mano. She stood up, walked up behind the Pvt., and struck Chisato in the back of the head with the hilt of the sword. Okai fell forward and slammed into the ground. She wasn't dead, just knocked out.
"Silly rabbit. You shouldn't try sneak attacks on people. It's rude" Mano said with a slight annoyance in her voice.
"Sato!" Hagiwara cried
"I'm about to bust your skull!" an enraged Umeda said
Erika ran towards Mano, who swung her sword at her approaching enemy. Erika dodged the attack and punched Mano in the gut. Mano tried to swing her sword down towards Erika's head but Erika saw this coming and uppercutted Mano in the chin. The 30 leader flew backwards and landed on her back. When she hit the ground, she dropped her sword.
"Nice moves. No one's ever knocked my sword out of my hands..." Cpl Mano said as she stood up. "Well I guess I have to fight you the classic way"
"Go on ahead. I'll have you back on the ground in no time" Umeda said in her fighting stance.
"I'm fighting with you, Erika" Yajima said as she joined her friend "No one can allow a girl this crazy to run loose"
"2 on 1. How unfair" Mano sighed "Oh well. I'll kill both of you"
Mano charged towards the two soldiers and tackled Maimi. She delivered at least four punches to Yajima's face, stunning her. Mano then got up.
"Wow she's fast. I didn't even see her move towards Maimi" Tokunaga said as she sat next to an unconscious Okai.
Mano ran towards Erika. She attempted a straight punch to Erika's face but she was once again outsmarted as Erika dodged the punch and countered with another punch to Mano's gut. Mano coughed up blood and walked around in a daze.
"I'm not down yet" Mano declared as she delivered a hook to Umeda's cheek, knocking her down. Immediately after that, Maimi blindsided Mano with a punch to the face.
"You ok, Umeda?" Yajima asked as she kicked Mano in the face, causing her to land on her back.
"I'm alright" Erika replied as she stood up and checked to see if she was injured. "Only a bruise. Good."
"I think that knocked her out..." Yajima said as she examined Mano. The 30 leader had bruises on her face, a nosebleed, and had blood coming from her mouth "We did a number on her..."
Suddenly Mano sat up and grabbed Maimi's neck.
"What the...?" Maimi yelled as Mano started to choke her.
"Is this girl a zombie!?!?" Erika asked as she ran over to Yajima and punched Mano in the face, knocking her out once again.
The group gathered around Mano's twisted, unconscious body. Chisato hobbled over to the crowd, helped by Hagiwara.
"You sure she won't go all "Night of the Living Dead" on us again?" she asked
"No I'm sure this time. She's not getting up." Yajima replied
"Go call the MPs" Shimizu said "This girl's definitely going to jail"
The military police soon arrived at the Officers' Club. They put Mano, still unconscious, into an ambulance to be taken to the local hosptial.
"So that's the one who set the base on fire..." the MP officer, Mjr. Matsuura said as she talked to Platoons B and C "Well, we're currently rounding up her accomplices around the base. When she gets out of the hospital, she's going straight to jail for a looonnnngg time. Anyway you guys should go get checked out by the medic too. You look horrible."
"We'll be ok. Thanks a lot, maam." Yajima said
"How's your head, Sato?" Erika asked
"Nothing a good night's sleep and a little medicine won't fix" Okai replied
"Now that Mano's done, we gotta find Kamei and beat her" Shimizu explained as she watched the ambulance drive away"Maybe if we beat her, then we'll know where the Aces' leader is"
"Ok let's get some sleep. That fight made me sleepy..." Yajima said as the group walked back to their barracks. No one saw the shadowy figure watching nearby.
"So they beat Erina, eh? They might be worthy of fighting me after all..." the figure thought "I'll be waiting for you, Umeda"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Man I made Mano pretty evil huh?
Anyway how will Umeda and her friends do against Kamei and who is the leader of the Aces? Find out next time.
-
Manoeri's still wearing her seifuku! Just like in Berikyuu! :rofl: Anime character?! :rofl:
Guest cameo by Ayaya :rockon:
-
"Are you sure it's real?" Natsuyaki asked "I'm sure it won't break if I do this"
Natsuyaki slammed the member's sword on a nearby rock, snapping it in half.
damn. just pure evil XD
"I heard that! I'm not a anime character!" the girl said
lol, what?
i wanna see major matsuura in army uniform :D
and, at the end... did captain forget about eating? lol
-
Sorry for the lateness. Internet problems. Anyway here's the fight between Kamei and Erika's group.
Chapter 10 - Kamei's Garden of Death
"Ugggggg my face. Where am I?"
"Oh you're awake, Mano-san."
"Who...who are you? Why am I in the hospital? Why does my head hurt?"
"I'm Major Matsuura Aya, chief of the Camp Aki military police. You were knocked unconscious. You've been here since last night. Anyway I should get to reason I came. When you are released from the hospital, you are going to jail for...arson, attempted murder, and assault."
"Wha--what?! I didn't do any of that stuff"
"Ah, but you did do all that stuff. You fought Sgt. Umeda and Lt Yajima from Platoon C and you and your 'Lucky 30' tortured and almost killed Pvt. Ishimura from Platoon B.You also ordered the Camp set on fire. All of that will probably get you at least 50 years in prison"
"50 years?"
"Yep. So I suggest getting an lawyer, kid and you better make sure he's good"
"It can't be. I can't go to jail. They'll eat me alive."
"Well you should've thought of that before you set the base on fire"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"...and that's what I call a sticky situation. In other news, residents of Aki might've seen the orange glow last night. Nearby Camp Aki was set on fire by a group of soldiers for reasons still unknown. The fire was quickly put out by a rainstorm coming from the east. The perpetrators were soon arrested by the police. The leader of the group, Cpl. Mano Erina, suffered several bruises, a broken nose, and some internal bleeding in the aftermath of the fire. Police expect her to get at least 50 years for her crimes."
It was the morning after the fight with Mano. Platoon C was visiting Platoon B's barracks after doing some military exercises and were listening to the news broadcast on their radio.
"Wow 50 years!" Yajima said as she turned off the radio "That's a pretty long time"
"Well she did set the camp on fire and attacked the Officer's club" Shimizu replied "I would give her a life sentence"
"Maiha-chan! How are you doing?" Momo said as she and Suzuki brought a tray of food to Ishimura, who was laying in bed.
"Much...better...Momo-chan" Ishimura replied. She was still very much injured and the pain still affected her speech, but she was healing quite nicely "I can move...around easier now, see?" She moved her arms around to show that her health had improved.
"That's very good, Ishimura-san" Suzuki said as she handed her a glass of milk "Here. Have a drink. It will help you get better"
"Thanks...Suzuki-san" Ishimura replied as she drank some of the milk.
"Maiha-chan, please eat some soup" Momo said as she handed her a bowl
"Momo-chan, you know...that I hate...your cooking" she replied with a smile "You...wanna make me worse?"
"You haven't changed a bit, Maiha-chan" Momo said
"So are you going after Kamei now, Umeda?" Natsuyaki asked as she and Tokunaga walked over to Erika who was talking to Maimi and Captain.
"I sure am. Maimi told me she needs some time to recover from last night but Captain says she can come along and help me" Erika replied
"Well we're coming with you too" Tokunaga said "We heard Kamei is pretty strong"
"Yeah we gotta come along to make sure she doesn't try any dirty tricks" Natsuyaki said "You can never trust the Aces"
"Ok that's four of us against Kamei" Shimizu said "She might still be at the old sports field so let's hurry and catch her. Suzuki, Momo, and everyone else, stay here with Ishimura and help her get better."
"Good...luck guys" Ishimura said "Punch her...once for me"
"Alright let's go get her" Erika said as the four soldiers headed towards the field
The sports field looked the same as it did the night before, except for the destroyed locker room on the east edge of the field. On the west edge was a small red building (probably a coach's office) that looked unaffected by the previous night's events.
"That's probably her headquarters right there" Natsuyaki said pointing to the building
"What are we waiting for?" Shimizu said as she walked over to the building. She opened the door to find a room with tatami mats and posters of different quotes and sayings on the walls. At the other end of the room was a girl dressed in a pink yukata reading a book.
"Ah so you guys finally come" the girl said as she closed the book and stood up
"Who are you?" Erika said as she poked her head into the doorway
"Oh you must be Sgt. Umeda. I've been wanting to meet you" the girl said as she walked over to the four troops "I'm Sgt Kamei Eri. You might know me as the 'Ace of Hearts'.
"You're Kamei Eri? I thought a Ace would look more like a fighter" Tokunaga said as she looked Kamei up and down.
"Nope last time I checked that was my name. So you guys beat the '30' huh? Nice work." Kamei said as she clapped "You have earned my respect, girls."
"Well Kamei, just like the '30', I have to fight you to stop the Aces from taking over the camp, you know that right?" Umeda asked.
"I understand. Well you're going to fight me, follow me to my garden. I don't want to mess up my room." the Ace said
"Garden? What's she talking about?" Natsuyaki asked.
Kamei opened a door hidden behind a poster and walked into what looked to be a traditional garden with a small fountain in the middle.
"Looks like something out of a play" Natsuyaki mumbled.
"You'd think there be a priest somewhere around here" Tokunaga joked to her friend.
"This is my garden. This is where I train and this is where you will die" Kamei announced
"That's what she thinks" Shimizu whispered to Erika "Remember Umeda, be ready for anything"
"Are you prepared to fight? I don't like waiting, love" Kamei said as she got ready to fight.
"Ready when you are, Kamei" Erika replied.
"I'm ready to cave your head in" Natsuyaki said with a slight smile
Kamei moved quickly and kicked Chinami in the gut. The blow took the former fighting champion by surprise and she flew backwards into a wall.
"Wow she's fast" Captain said as she looked back at Tokunaga. Just as she turned back around, she noticed Kamei charging straight at her. She quickly dodged her foe and Kamei smashed into the wall. The Ace quickly got back up and focused on Umeda, who was checking on Tokunaga, who was dazed but ok. Erika was blindsided by a knee to the face. The Sgt. countered with a double punch to the face. Kamei was tackled from behind by Shimizu.
"This is for Chinami" the Cpt. said as she slammed the Ace's head into the ground. Captain seemed to have a advantage over Kamei, until she was elbowed in the face and released her hold. Kamei threw her off and Shimizu fell over on her back. Kamei scrambled to her feet.
"An attack from behind, huh? Pretty childish for a Army Captain" Kamei said before she noticed Natsuyaki running straight for her. Kamei punched the Cpl. in the gut and Natsuyaki fell over.
"Why do you guys insist on sneaking up on me? Seems I'll kill you first, Nastuyaki" Kamei said with a slight annoyance in her voice. She grabbed the girl's neck and started to choke her. But Natsuyaki only smiled and delivered a cold punch to the Ace's chest. The blow knocked the air Kamei and she released her grip and fell to her knees.
"Shouldn't you be protecting youself instead of sending me useless threats?" Natsuyaki growled
Kamei got up and without saying a word, punched Miyabi. Then the Ace focused once again on Erika, who had been helping Shimizu. The Sgt noticed Kamei looking at her and prepared herself to defend.
"Come at me, Kamei" Erika demanded. Kamei charged forward and tried to deliver a hook to the face but Umeda blocked and delivered two hooks of her own to her foe's face. The two blows surprised the Ace, who wasn't expecting Umeda to block, and Kamei fell to the ground.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Back at Platoon B's barracks, the remaining soldiers took care of Ishimura and made sure none of Kamei's supporters came knocking at the door.
"So Maiha-chan, what did the '30' do to you anyway?" Momo asked as she gave her friend another glass of milk.
"It was horrible. After...I was knocked out during the fight...I woke up in the building you guys found me in. At first...those guys were nice to me." the private explained "They...fed me and gave me water...but one day they started to beating me every hour...then they did that thing they do on mental patients and hentai...You know? With the electricity..."
"Electo-shock therapy?" Arihara replied as she pulled up a chair by Ishimura's bed.
"Yeah...wait how do you know about that...anyway...they did that to me a lot to make sure I didn't...try to fight back" Maiha said.
"That's horrible" Suzuki said
"They deserved that beating..." Okai muttered
"Anyway...a few days before you guys came...I overheard some of my guards...talking about getting rid of me. They called me 'extra weight' and they would get rid of me...then burn the camp to cover it up." Ishimura continued
"Lucky Mother Nature showed up before anyone got seriously hurt" Hagiwara said
"Did you ever try to escape?" Kumai asked
"Yeah...once" Maiha replied "Give me...another cup of milk...and I'll tell you"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Back at Kamei's garden, the girls were gaining an advantage over Kamei, but she was still putting up a fight.
"Chinami watch your left" Erika yelled as Kamei ran towards Tokunaga, who was helping up Natsuyaki, knocked down from an earlier attack. Tokunaga noticed her foe too late and was hit in the face by a strong right hook. She fell over backwards and was knocked out cold.
The Ace didn't notice Miyabi, who quickly uppercutted her foe. Kamei flew backwards and hit the ground with a thud.
"That's what you get for not knocking me out when you had the chance, you idiot" Natsuyaki said as she stood over her foe. Kamei slowly got up and stumbled around in a daze. She looked over at Erika, who was watching her closely.
"Umeda...you know you were my main target the whole time, right, love?" the Ace asked with an evil smile
"I think the fight's driving her crazy" Erika thought "She looks like The Joker"
"Ever since you fought Reina and Sayu, I couldn't wait to fight you and only you." Kamei continued "Now let's make this a fight just between us."
"Sure let's end this already. Natsuyaki-san, Captain help Chinami." Umeda commanded
"Already headed there" Shimizu replied
Kamei slowly walked towards her foe as Erika got ready to defend. The Ace attempted a lazy hook but missed and Erika countered with a straight punch to the face. Kamei fell over and hit the ground unconscious.
"Oh God that was hard..." Umeda said as she wiped blood from her nose "Is Chinami ok?"
"I'm ok" Tokunaga answered as she got up "Am I missing any teeth, Miyabi?"
"No they're all there" Natsuyaki replied
"Let's go home, guys. We can celebrate our victory with a meal...Umeda's paying" Shimizu said
"Huh? How did this happen?" Erika frantically asked as she followed her friends out of the garden.
-
Momo "poison cooking" special :D
lol, Eri is a scholar ? (i'm thinking about another word, but can't materialize it -_-" something around noble princess ) I like where this is going.
She quickly dodged her foe and Kamei smashed into the wall.
Duh, smashed into the wall?! haha
then they did that thing they do on mental patients and hentai...You know?
wait, what?!
"Yeah...once" Maiha replied "Give me...another cup of milk...and I'll tell you"
lolol
And a good ending :D Love it.
Thanks for the new chapter :D
-
The last Ace was pretty tough, giving the four a hard time. I can imagine that her outfit looks like the Sakura-gumi getup. XD
Good thing they were able to save Maiha on time but I doubt if she'll last if Momo keeps on feeding her with her cooking. :lol:
-
I had to take this chapter down to make some edits.But I'm done so here the redone chapter.
@ziggurat - I know what you're talking about but I can't think of the right word either
@wordsworth - If you thought Kamei is tough, imagine how tough the fourth Ace is...
Ch 11 - And then there was one
Tokunaga, Umeda, Natsuyaki, and Shimizu returned to Platoon B's barracks after their fight with Kamei.
"Yay you're back! Momo...was going to force feed me...some of her soup" Ishimura yelled as she pushed away the bowl in Momo's hand
"I'll just feed you later, Maiha-chan" Momo replied to her friend's dismay.
"Did you beat Kamei?" Yajima asked as the group entered the building.
"Did we ever! Umeda-san here left her unconscious" Tokunaga answered "But I keep feeling like we forgot to do something..."
"Oh crap! We forgot to ask her where the fourth Ace is." Umeda yelled, slapping her forehead "Baka! Baka! Baka!"
"What are we gonna do?" Shimizu asked
"Tell me where you left her. I'll call the police so they can go find her and the other Aces" Momo said as she pulled out a pink cell phone
"You really want to get the MPs involved in this? Except for Mjr Matsuura-san, the rest of those guys are kinda mean" Nakajima said putting a hand on Momo's shoulder
"Do you wanna go ask her yourself, Nakki?" Erika asked sarcastically "She'll gladly tell you"
"She'll tell me after these boots accidently hit her face" Saki quietly answered
"It's the only way to find out who and where the last Ace is, Nakajima" Shimizu told the Corporal before turning to her second in command "Momo, call 'em"
"Already dialing it, Captain" Momo replied
"No you're not" Ishimura said as she suddenly appeared over Momo's shoulder "You're...texting"
"Sh--Shut up! I'm calling them right now" the Sgt yelled as she dialed the number "Moshi-moshi, is this the police? I'd like to report..."
"Ok while she's calling the police, I'll treat your wounds" Hagiwara said "Come on Nurse Chisa"
"You're not a doctor, little kid. Call me a nurse again and I pound your face in" Okai grumbled
"Nurse Chisa, can you pass me the bandages?" the medic called as she looked at Erika's wounds
"That's it!!" Chisato snapped as she tackled Hagiwara
"Get off of her right now!" Maimi commanded "And hurry up on Erika! I don't like the look of Natsuyaki's face"
"Hey what's that supposed to mean?" Miyabi said as she waited to be treated
"Oh I didn't mean any offense" the Lt replied
About three hours later, as the sun neared its peak, the three defeated Aces were rounded up and brought to the police station, where Platoons B and C were asked to meet them. Even Ishimura, being held up by Momo and Airi, came.
"Oh everything's all blurry" Kamei said as the MPs brought her into the waiting room. She looked like she had just woken up, her nose and several spots on her face were bandaged, and her hand was broken. Next to her was Sgt Tanaka, whose arm was wrapped in a sling.
"You guys called the police on us?" she groaned "How uncool..."
"As expected of non-cute people like them" Sgt Michishige, whose head was wrapped in bandages, replied.
"Shut up about that cute stuff already!" Umeda, who face had several bandages as well, yelled "I thought you would've stopped talking about being cute after I won that fight"
"Nope I'm just talking like that because I knew it would make you mad" the Ace said, sticking her tongue out.
"OK let's get down to business" Mjr Matsuura said as she entered the room"Lt Yajima here has already explained about the 'Aces' thing, so I won't press charges against them. But you three, tell who your leader is right now"
"I don't feel like telling you..." Tanaka responded rudely "Maybe if Okai over there gives me some of that money..."
"Fat chance of that!" Okai said "Now go ahead and tell us who the leader is, you sorry excuse for a combat veteran"
"How dare you question my combat experience?!? I fought in south Sapporo, you little..." the Ace angrily yelled
"Calm down, Reina! I'll tell you guys who it is but there's really nothing you can do about it." Michishige said putting her handcuffed hands on Tanaka's shoulder "No one can beat...Fujimoto-sama"
The whole room gasped when they heard the name...except Umeda.
"Who's Fujimoto?" the Sgt asked, looking around at her fellow soldiers
"You don't about Cpt. Fujimoto?" Tanaka said surprised before mumbling "You really are new..."
"How could you not know of Miki, love...and why are there three of you?" Kamei said trying to stand up straight
"Erika, if you want to talk to someone who's seen it all in combat, you talk to Cpt Fujimoto Miki of Platoon M" Maimi explained "She's fought in every major battle in Hokkaido and she has the Order of the Sacred Treasure"
"Order of the Sacred Treasure? That's a pretty high honor" Umeda said to herself
"She's fought in Sapporo, Hakodate, Muroran" Shimizu listed "Those were some pretty bloody battles."
"She was wounded...twice" Ishimura said
"I heard she killed 100 terrorists with a machine gun and when she ran out of ammo, she hit them with her broken rifle" Momo said
"Around here, she's basically a legend" Nakajima told Erika
"But what is she doing with thugs like these?" Hagiwara asked pointing to the Aces
"Hey I'm not a thug!" Tanaka protested.
"Any person who associates with the 'Lucky 30' is a thug!" Okai said in a matter of fact voice as she rubbed her head wound from the previous night "My head still hurts from where Mano hit me"
"If a person as respected as Fujimoto is doing stuff like bullying and extortion, then she has to be punished for it" Matsuura announced "When we find her, she's going to jail for a long time...and not those nice jails either, she's going to the toughest, dirtiest jail in all of Japan"
"Well we'll help you any way we can Major." Tokunaga asked "Where is she anyway?"
"I don't know. In the barracks most likely" Michishige shrugged and answered
The Major gave the order to the troops under her command and within 10 minutes military policemen were outside Platoon M's barracks. A policeman kicked opened the door and stormed the building but the only person there was Cpl. Niigaki Risa, who was dancing alone to her radio.
"Uso!! W--What's going on here!?!" she yelled as she frantically tried to turn off her radio, tripping over boots and boxes
"Gaki-san! Where's Fujimoto?" Maimi asked as she entered the building
"Maimi-chan. M--Miki-san is gone" Niigaki answered as she flipped the radio's off switch
"Where did she go Niigaki?" Captain asked
"I don't know. She packed some stuff and said she was leaving for a while" the Cpl replied
"Call the Aki police. Get a search out for this girl" Matsuura told her assistant as the MPs quickly left the area and left Niigaki
"Where do you think she is?" Momo asked as B and C stood outside M's barracks "She could be anywhere around here"
"She won't be in our barracks" Hagiwara said as she leaned on the wall of the barracks "Sato probably left a 3 day old sandwich in there, and by now it probably stinks in there"
Right after Mai said that, she was smacked by an irate Chisato. "That only happened once, stupid"
"I know but you didn't have to hit me..." the Pvt quietly replied
"Any other suggestions?" Yajima turned her back to the sniper team and asked the others
"Fujimoto could've headed into town. We should check the Inuyama district in east Aki, that place is a hangout for criminals, people say" Kumai explained
"Wow Yuri I haven't heard a word out of you this whole time...but yeah let's check it tomorrow" Umeda said "We got to rest up"
"Ok then we'll meet her at around 4pm." Momo declared
"Why at night? We can just beat her up during the day and get back home by dinner" Okai asked "Mmmm dinner"
"Well criminals do most of their business at night" Momo answered
"Oh now I understand" Chisato said "4pm it is"
"Now let's have that meal I promised you guys...Umeda's still paying" Captain said as she walked away, the rest of the group following her.
"Did I lose a bet or something?!" Umeda asked as she ran after her friends
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I need some suggestions on character developments.
Since Miyabi is supposed to be the tough girl, you think I should add a cigarette or something to make her more sukeban-ish?
-
Good Fic!
Nice story... I like the kids (meaning Berryz Koubkou, C-ute and the Eggs XD)
I don't know why but I wasn't surprised when reading that Miki was the leader of the Aces XD
...So yankii of Her XD
-
"No you're not" Ishimura said as she suddenly appeared over Momo's shoulder "You're...texting"
lol, sneaky.
"Ok while she's calling the police, I'll treat your wounds" Hagiwara said "Come on Nurse Chisa"
somehow I can imagine chisato in a nurse outfit :D but damn, her reply is fierce as ever.
"As expected of non-cute people like them" Sgt Michishige, whose head was wrapped in bandages, replied.
I'm not really fond of her cutesy act in real, so this one is also included... -_-"
"No one can beat...Fujimoto-sama"
:O
from all the detail after that, she sounds like a commando lol
"Uso!! W--What's going on here!?!"
love gaki-san comedic entrance XD
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For suggestion, I can't really imagine miya smokes a cigarette lol. Maybe you can make her wears a lot of accessories? something like buono! wear... a lot of bling-bling lol
-
Yankii heart - Miki does seem like a very yankii person. Maybe that's why she seemed like a good choice for the Aces leader (BTW it was either Miki or Yossie for Aces leader)
ziggurat - maybe one day I'll make her wear skull and crossbones...or maybe a man's suit lol
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 12 - Inuyama nights
"Chopper A-2 reporting in. We are currently over the north side of Aki but no sign of Fujimoto. How is it on the ground? Over."
"Chopper A-2, this is Platoon H on the ground. We are near city hall along with the local police but we don't see any sign of her either. Over"
"Ok we'll head west and let you know if we see her. A-2 over and out."
As the sun began to set over Aki, platoons B and C met at the gate that marked the entrance to the Inuyama district. Throughout the rest of the town, there were roadblocks and checkpoints everywhere as the police looked for Fujimoto.
"So are you guys ready to start this search?" Maimi asked as Platoon B approached
"Yeah let's get this search over with" Natsuyaki replied
"Ok everybody, Inuyama may look nice from over here but once we pass that gate, anything can happen" Suzuki explained "Be careful, ok?"
"Let's go" Erika said as she started toward the gate.
The group slowly made their way through the gate and entered the district. The paved road turned into a old dusty dirt road. The buildings that surrounded them looked like something out of the Edo period. As they walked down the main street, they were passed by shady looking people who looked scary but offered no threat.
"These guys look like Yakuza" Momo whimpered "They're creeping me out"
"Don't worry, Momo. I'm here." Shimizu replied
"Hey, let's try this building" Kumai suggested, pointing to an amazingly nice looking izakaya. The group entered the building, but no one acknowledged them. They walked over the bar where a bartender in a happi greeted them.
"Good evening! How can I help you guys?" she said
"Have you seen Fujimoto Miki here?" Erika asked "We need to talk to her"
"Yes I have seen her. You're Platoons B and C, right?" the girl replied "She's told me a lot about you. Let me go find her."
The bartender quickly disappeared behind a door. The group looked at their surroundings. The customers looked like regular people in contrast to the rough looking people from earlier.
"This food looks pretty good" Shimizu said as she looked at a nearby menu "I might just order something in here"
"Captain, remember that we're on a mission here" Momo replied "No time for eating"
The bartender came back once again.
"I'm sorry. Fujimoto-san can't come out right now but she asked me to do this" she said before leaping over the bar, pulling out a long, thin pole and hitting Captain in the side of the head, knocking the stunned girl to the ground. The bartender threw off her happi to expose a sleeveless shirt. Her arms were heavily bandaged from the elbows down to the hands.
"I'm Komine Momoka, Fujimoto's best friend and closest ally. I knew that you guys would come looking for her so I've been getting ready to break your faces" she announced swinging the pole "So which one of you do I beat first?"
"You'll pay for that" Erika yelled. She charged forward and landed a punch to Momoka's face. The girl wasn't prepared for the blow and stumbled backward. After she regained her footing, Komine swung the pole at Erika as she attempted another attack. The pole hit its target and Erika fell to the ground.
"Need some help, Erika?" Yajima asked
"No just check on Captain" Umeda replied rising to her feet "I've got her covered"
Momoka swung her pole once again but a little slower than the previous attacks. Erika took advantage of this, grabbed the pole and threw her shocked enemy to the ground. Momoka stood back up to discover her fighting pole was missing. She looked up and saw Umeda holding it.
"Give that back!" the girl yelled as she scrambled to her feet
"You want this little thing?" Erika replied as she slammed the pole against a chair,snapping it in half "Do you want it now?"
"Why...why did you do that?!? Miki-sama gave me that pole. I'll kill you" Komine said as she charged forward. She delivered an uppercut and knocked Umeda into a table. Komine tried another attack kicked in the chest and stumbled back once again.
"Hey Captain you ok over there?" the Sgt asked, glancing over to Shimizu and the others.
"I'm alright" the Captain replied as she stood up and check her head for blood "You mind if I help?"
"Be my guest" Umeda said. Shimizu delivered a running jump kick to Komine, sending her into a chair and breaking it. Shimizu quickly recovered from her attack and got ready for another.
"I'm really supposed to believe Fujimoto's closest ally is this weak?" she said "Come at me with all you've got."
"Alright. Whatever you say" Momoka replied taking off her arm bandages and wiping the blood off her nose. She ran forward and unleashed a fury of punches towards Shimizu.
"Now you can taste my true speed" she said
"Whoa! There's punches coming from everywhere!" Shimizu thought "I can't counterattack"
The Captain tried her hardest to dodge them all but they soon overwhelmed her and she was getting hit more than she was blocking.
"She can't hold those punches off for much longer" Erika said to herself "I've got to save her"
Umeda blindsided Momoka with a right hook to the face. The girl fell backwards and landed on her back.
"Thanks for the help, Umeda" Shimizu said wiping the blood from her nose
"No problem, Captain" Erika repiled standing Momoka, who was slowly crawling backwards "So what do you want to do with this mess?"
"I dunno, Sgt. Maybe Natsuyaki-san has a few toture ideas. Hey Miyabi, do you have any good torture ideas?" Captain asked glancing over to the rest of the group
"Well I haven't had a chance to use the nails and candle wax yet." Natsuyaki replied as she thought about the possible ways she could use those
"I have a ping pong paddle. Maybe you could use that too, Miyabi" Arihara suggested with a smirk on her face
"Now you're thinking smart, Kanna" Miyabi said as the two Corporals high-fived.
"Ok ok I give up!!" Komine yelled as she got up "Miki-sama come on here out please"
The door behind the bar slammed open and a woman with a half-full beer mug in one hand stepped out.
"Momoka, this had better be good. I was watching some wota get embarrassed on TV" she growled
"I couldn't beat them like you asked, Miki-sama. Forgive me." Komine bowed and said
"Don't worry Momoka. We're friends. I won't kill you...yet" Fujimoto said with a smile before averting her gaze towards B and C "So you guys beat the Aces, huh? Well I guess I'll fight one of you next. Anyone wanna step up?"
"I guess I'll be the one to fight you then" Erika said "I've already help fight everyone else"
"Good good but I need a challenge." Miki replied as she took a sip from her mug "Does anyone else wanna fight me along with her?"
After a moment of silence, Nakajima stepped up.
"I'll do it" she announced "I'll fight you"
"Are you sure Nakki?" Suzuki asked "She looks pretty tough"
"I'm sure. I wanna fight Fujimoto" Saki assured Airi
"Alright then we have a fight. Let me explain the rules: 1. We're fighting in my secret arena, which Komine there will take you to tomorrow and 2. You'll be fighting with swords, which I will give you when we meet. Got that?" Fujimoto explained
"Sure" Umeda and Nakajima agreed
"Now get outta here! I'm about to miss the last battle of the show" Miki said as she disappeared back behind the door.
"You best get some rest" Komine suggested "I'll meet you at the Inuyama gate tomorrow"
The group left the izakaya (which had dozen broken cups and chairs scattered everywhere) and headed out of the district. It was about 6:30 pm and getting dark.
"Do we even know how to use swords?" Umeda asked Nakajima as the passed through the gate
"Well I took kendo when I was younger" Nakajima answered "Although I don't remember anything..."
"Don't worry Nakki. I'll be there with you and the Boss. If she tries anything, I'll do this" Hagiwara said as she kicked and punch. The last punch hit Okai, who was standing next to Hagiwara.
"Hey, watch where you punching, little kid!" Chisato replied with a slap to the back of the head "You might just kill a girl"
"Girl? I thought I hit a boy" Mai mumbled
"I heard that!! Die Maimai!!" Okai snapped as she strangled her friend. The others just laughed and headed back home.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Time for some facts - Did you know I chose Komine completely at random from a list of Eggs? I should also tell you that I have a swordfight starting on my H!O fanfic too. Maybe it's because I'm reading Rurouni Kenshin lol.
-
Random evil egg FTW. :lol: I was caught off guard when she suddenly hit Captain with that pole XD. And she said that Miki asked her to do it. :lol:
Nails, candle wax and ping pong paddle. Potential torture paraphernalia but they have uses for something else aside from torture... :twisted:
Nakki vs. Miki in a swordfight. I expect clothes getting ripped or cut. :grin:
-
Shimizu delivered a running jump kick to Komine, sending her into a chair and breaking it.
Ouch, captain. That really hurt.
"Alright. Whatever you say" Momoka replied taking off her arm bandages and wiping the blood off her nose.
dragonball's heavy weight training thingy? XD
"Don't worry Nakki. I'll be there with you and the Boss. If she tries anything, I'll do this" Hagiwara said as she kicked and punch. The last punch hit Okai, who was standing next to Hagiwara.
I lolled.
Can' wait for the swordfight.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rurouni Kenshin is good. Try read Vagabond by Inoue Takehiko (slam dunk) It has sick swordplay and pretty epic manga.
And don't take words' pervy tips :P
-
ziggurat - The weights were kind of inspired by Dragonball. I wonder if those would work in real life...anyway I bought Vagabond this past weekend. I just started reading it. It's awesome! Thanks for telling me about it.
wordsworth - I'm trying to keep this family friendly! Bad wordsworth!! Then again, who knows? One day there might be a secret torture chapter. But then ziggurat will get mad at me :lol:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 13 - The Ace of Spades pt. 1
"Decorated soldier Cpt. Fujimoto Miki, a combat veteran of the Hokkaido War is now wanted by the local authorities. Police say that she and three other soldiers under her command ran an organized crime ring that resulted in the injuries of several people. Police believe she is still in the Aki area. If you know where she is, please call the Aki Police Department as soon as you can."
It was about 7pm and raining steadily as Platoons B and C approached the gate where Komine was waiting. She was wearing several bandages on her face and around her head.
"Hey you guys are finally here. Are you guys sure you wanna fight Miki-sama? Those wounds look pretty serious" she said pointing to Erika's bruises from the previous fight.
"Nah. don't worry about it. I'm good to fight" Umeda replied
"I checked her out. She's ready." Hagiwara announced
"Eh whatever you say. Follow me." Momoka replied as she walked through the gate. The group walked through the gate and entered Inuyama. They walked past the izakaya where Erika, Captain, and Komine had fought the night before.
"Why aren't we fighting in there?" Nakajima asked
"Because you guys broke everything. I'm still cleaning up in there" the injured bartender replied, grinding her teeth
"You're the one who hit me with a pole. So consider us breaking your izakaya payback" Shimizu said
"You win this one..." Komine mumbled
"So where are we going?" Umeda asked as the group passed a couple of thugs who looked like they should be in Tokyo instead of Aki
"Miki-sama has set up a special place for you to fight" Momoka replied as she looked up as if she didn't know if she was in the right place "It's just around this corner"
The group turned the corner and a large red temple greeted them.
"A temple?! They're gonna fight in a shrine?" Miyabi asked "I thought that we would fight in some tea house or something"
The group walked up the stairs and approached the door. Komine stopped and pulled two bamboo swords.
"Before we go any further, I have to give you these" she said
"You've got to be kidding me!!" Nakajima exclaimed "Bamboo swords?"
"Hey you take what you can get Corporal" Umeda replied as she took her sword
"Ok let's do this!" Momoka yelled as she opened the door. The inside of the temple was clearly neglected and the roof had a giant hole in it.
"This place smells like an old library" Chisato mumbled holding her noise
"How long has it been since this place's seen a good cleaning?" Tokunaga said
"Miki-sama, they're here!!" Komine yelled. Fujimoto stepped out of the shadows and walked to the middle of the temple. She then pulled out her sword--rather swords. She had two wakizashi with green tips.
"You guys are probably wondering why the tips are green. I wanted to make this fight more interesting so I dipped my swords in poison that Momoka made for me." Miki explained
"I made really good grades in chemistry" Komine whispered to the rest of the group
"Shut up!!" Natsuyaki snapped, smacking poor Momoka
"I gave you bamboo swords so you wouldn't be able to kill me." Miki continued with a smirk "But then again, even if you have a steel sword, you wouldn't be able to land a hit on me. Now let's finish this quickly because I need some beer"
After that, Miki sprung forward and jabbed one of her swords at Erika. The surprised Sgt. barely managed to dodge it by jumping to the side. As Erika lay on the dirt ground, preparing to get up she was almost hit as Fujimoto stabbed into the ground with the other sword, the sword barely missing her head.
"I think I saw my life flash before my eyes" she thought
"Crap! I missed. Let's try again." Fujimoto said
Miki pulled the sword out on the ground and was about to stab again until Nakajima blindsided her with a hit to the back of the head.
"Did you forget that you're fighting two people?" the Cpl. said before turning to Erika "You alright, Sarge?"
"I'm ok but she's freaking quick" Umeda replied as Nakajima helped her up "Let's tag team her"
"Now you're speaking my language" Saki said
"What? Japanese translated into English?" Umeda asked as Nakajima facepalmed.
The two soldiers ran toward Fujimoto, swords ready to strike. Miki was prepared for them and blocked both of them.
"Too slow!" she laughed and said "Here's how you fight"
She delivered a front kick to Nakajima's face and a slash to Umeda's arm. Saki flew backwards and Erika grabbed her arm in pain.
"If you wanna tag team me, then you gotta do better than that" the Ace leader said as she calmly wiped the blood off the wakizashi.
"Erika's cut. Shouldn't we do something?" Maimi asked Captain as the rest of the group watched the fight unfold
"Let me think...I got an idea. You have your officer's sword with you?" she replied "Those swords may be ultra dull but they may still be useful. But don't move until I give the signal"
"What do they have planned?" Okai whispered
"Dunno. Maybe they'll set the swords on fire and throw it at her?" Hagiwara replied
"That would be so cool" Suzuki said, smiling with glee
Back at the battle, Nakajima and Umeda were trying to avoid Miki's blades as she tried to cut them.
"Stand still so I can kill you!" she yelled as she swung her blade
Saki barely managed to hit Fujimoto in the face with her sword but not before the blade cut her belly.
The attack broke Fujimoto's nose and temporarily blinded her.
"AHH!! My eyes!!" she yelled as she stumbled around "You hit me in the eyes!!"
Umeda took advantage of the pause and smashed Fujimoto in the side, possibly breaking a rib. The Ace fell to the ground. When she hit the ground, one of the wakizashi flew out of her hands.
"Good shot!" Nakajima said
"You alright, Nakki?" Umeda asked "That cut looks like it hurts"
"Don't worry about it, Sarge. It's not that deep" the Cpl answered
"So Fujimoto what are you going to do now?" Erika said, arms crossed "You just lost a sword and you're fighting two people"
Fujimoto stood up, nose bloody, and threw away the second wakizashi.
"I don't need a sword to kill you. I'll just pound your faces in" she mumbled, low but still audible
Miki charged forward and delivered two punches to Nakajima's face and gut. The girl fell to her knees, dropped the bamboo sword, coughed up some blood, and passed out.
"Knocked out so soon? After two punches? I was just getting started..." Miki said confidently
"It won't be long before we win" Momoka smiled and said
"What did she do to Nakajima?!" Natsuyaki exclamed as Okai and Hagiwara rushed to Saki's aid
"That punch to the gut must of sent her into shock" Hagiwara said "and that hit to the face busted her nose too. Get me a ice pack and some bandages"
"Let's go!" Shimizu yelled
Shimizu and Yajima ran to join Umeda as she stared Fujimoto down.
"Looks like you need a little help" Maimi said, holding her officer's sword
"Can we be of assistance?" Captain asked, pulling her sword out
"Be my guests, guys. Fujimoto, you're going to pay" Umeda declared, holding her arm
"So a lowly Sergeant, her stupid Lieutenant, and a midget Captain are going to fight me, Fujimoto Miki, a national hero, with a bamboo sword and two of those kitchen knifes you people call 'officer's swords'?" the leader said with a smile "This is going to be fun"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nakki's KOed? 3 on 1 fighting? So many twists... :lol:
Anyway I should explain the officer's swords. In this version of the Japanese Army, all officers have swords for ceremonies. They're ordered to have the swords with them at all times. These swords are really dull, though. So officers can't use them in combat.
-
Intense chap! Can't determine who has the upper hand. :O
3 on 1. I think Miki's pretty used to things like that. And I'm not talking about fighting. :hee:
P.S. Zig is a closet perv. He won that award last year. :kekeke: j/k
-
lol, I don't know that miki is a sissy :P She must win in any way, either with good or sneaky way :lol:
And at last, they must gang up on her. A typical Platoon C and B battle plan XD
------------------------------------------------------
I'm not feeling really well, so yeah look like I can't give a better comment :sweatdrop:
p/s: What award are you talking about, words? :P
-
ziggurat - I hope you feel better soon. Can't have one of my favorite readers sick. But there will be more one on one fights soon.
wordsworth - words, one more pervy thing and someone might shut this thread down :lol:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 14 - The Ace of Spades pt. 2
"Prepare to die, ladies!"
Fujimoto charged forward toward Shimizu, Umeda, and Yajima. Captain looked over at Maimi and they both silently agreed on a plan.
As Miki zeroed in on Erika, intending to deliver a two handed punch to the chest, the two officers lifted their swords and swung down. They hit Miki's fists with a crack.
"Aaahh!!" Miki yelled as she examined her hands. They were now red and swollen.
"Now your hands are broken...your lucky these swords aren't sharper" Captain said with a faint smile "If they were, you would be missing fingers right now."
"Don't get cocky, you punk!" Miki snapped "You think I got to be a national hero because I gave up even when my hands were broken? I can still beat you senseless"
Miki quickly punched Captain in the face, sending her flying back. The Captain struggled to her feet.
"Are you human? Humans can't punch that hard, especially in your condition." Maimi said, keeping her sword trained on Miki
"Apparently, you've never met m--" Miki said before noticing that Erika had slipped away "Where did your buddy go?"
"Right here!" Miki heard before feeling a sharp pain in her back. She quickly turned around to find Erika standing in front of her with a smile "Just so you know, you shouldn't leave your back open"
"Why, you sneaky little--" Miki yelled as she swung blindly at her foe "I'm gonna kill you and use your head as a trophy, you little rat"
Erika backed up to avoid the hits but stumbled and was hit in the face by a one two punch. She fell backwards but quickly recovered and countered with an uppercut.
"Nice counterattack" Miki said, spitting out some teeth "But this ain't over yet"
Miki delivered an crescent kick that knocked Erika back down. She smashed down on the ground and was knocked out.
"Umeda!" yelled Captain as she ran toward Fujimoto. She attempted a kick but Miki grabbed it, twisted it, and slammed the girl down. Captain started to get up and fell back down.
"So where's your plan now?" said the Ace leader as she turned to Yajima who then attacked and smashed her sword into Miki's side. Miki only smiled and said "Not good enough, kid"
Miki grabbed the sword and pushed it into Maimi's gut. She fell over, holding her stomach.
"1, 2, 3, 4. That's all of you. Seems like I win" Fujimoto cheered as she walked around the temple "You thought you could beat me but you came up a little short. Now come on Momoka let's go get some beer"
"Uh Miki-sama?" a pale faced Komine said
"What? What's wrong?" Miki replied, puzzled at her friend's expression
"Behind you" the bartender answered
Everyone watched as Nakajima awoke, got up, wiped blood from her mouth and staggered over to the wakizashi that Miki had left behind. She picked them up and said coldly to Fujimoto:
"It's time to end this Ace crap!"
"You don't look in any condition to be fighting me, kid. Go clean yourself first then talk to me" Miki confidently said before she saw Nakajima speeding towards her. She grabbed one sword with both hands, stopping it.
"Ha, just because you're faster doesn't mean you're better" the Ace bragged "Now give up"
"Don't you remember, 'Miki-sama'? You had two swords" Saki smiled and said
Saki then slashed Miki in the back with the other sword. Blood quickly gushed out of the wound.
"Miki-sama!!" Momoka screamed
"Ahhh! That stings! I can't believe you would do that. When I get you, I'm gonna burn you alive!" Fujimoto yelled as she grabbed her back and fell to her knees
"Good work, Corporal" Umeda said as she got back on her feet and dusted herself off. Shimizu and Yajima got back up too. They all gathered around Fujimoto.
"So, girls. I think it's time for some good old fashioned payback" Captain said, arms crossed with a smile
"This is for cutting my arm" Erika said as she punched Miki in the face
"This is for knocking out my buddy, Erika" Maimi said doing the same
And one by one the four girls took turns punching Miki until Erika noticed Ishimura limping over.
"Can I...have the finishing blow?" she asked
"You sure can, Maiha. Go ahead." Maimi replied "You deserve it after all the stuff you've been through"
The injured girl appoached Miki. The Ace, bruised and bleeding, looked at her and smiled.
"So you're that stupid Private that the 30 beat up...Mano's men did a good job but if I had captured you...you wouldn't be walking like that" she said, laughing
"Shut up!!" Ishimura yelled and delivered a straight punch to Miki's mouth. The Ace leader fell back and passed out.
"Nice hit" Shimizu said, patting the girl on the back "Hey Natsuyaki, Kumai, Sugaya, go get the find the police. Tell we've beaten Cpt. Fujimoto Miki and take Komine with you"
"Yes maam. Come on guys" Miyabi replied, motioning the two girls to follow her "Komine, you're coming with me"
"No don't leave me with them!! No!" Momoka yelled as the three girls dragged her away "Miki-sama! Wake up!"
"So is she dead?" Momoko asked as the rest of the group gathered around Fujimoto's crumpled body "You guys did cut her"
"Nah, she's still breathing" Hagiwara answered "By the way, how that's cut, Boss?"
"It's still bleeding. But wait a sec. Didn't she say those blades were poisoned? Does this look poisoned?" Erika replied
"No it looks ok. Use this to cover it up" Nakajima said, taking off her headband and giving to Erika. When she took it off, it revealed a large scar on her forehead.
"Thanks" Erika said wrapping the headband around her wound
"How'd you get that, Nakki?" Suzuki asked pointing to the scar
"I'll tell you on the way home, Airi" Saki replied
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some time later, the police arrived and arrested Fujimoto, who was still unconscious. She was put into an ambulance and taken away. Mjr. Matsuura walked over to the group.
"Thanks to you guys, we can put Fujimoto away for a long, long time. You can head on home if you want." she said "Make sure you go to the medical ward too."
"Don't worry, we'll do it" Yajima replied "Come on guys back to Camp Aki."
"So do you think Miki has any people left to attack us?" Umeda asked
"Nah, without Fujimoto to command them, any people that are still working with her will most likely fail" Shimizu replied
"So everything work out for us, we saved Maiha-chan, Okai-san doesn't have to pay money anymore, we saved countless people, and we caught a criminal. Have you enjoyed your first summer here, Erika?" Momo asked
"Yep, this was the best summer ever" Umeda answered
"So Nakki tell us about the scar..." Hagiwara said
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Miki's defeated and so are the Aces. That means this part of the story is over.
What about Nakki's scar? Where did that come from? Tune in next time
-
"You think I got to be a national hero because I gave up even when my hands were broken? I can still beat you senseless"
As expected from a national hero. But does she really has what it takes to be one? XD
Miki quickly punched Captain in the face, sending her flying back.
WTF, how dare she touched my captain's precious face!
"Don't you remember, 'Miki-sama'? You had two swords" Saki smiled and said
That is the best captain :D
"Can I...have the finishing blow?" she asked
Maiha! T_T
When she took it off, it revealed a large scar on her forehead.
my shock...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh, Act 1 finished? Neat :D Thanks for the new chapter!
-
I'm back after a little break with a new chapter so this story isn't dead yet

<Umeda> "What else have you guys watched lately?"
<Chisa> "We also watched Freddy vs Jason yesterday"
<Maimai> "Yeah that's when Freddy from the "Nightmare on Elm Street" series and Jason from the "Friday the 13th" series face off and a bunch of teenagers are in the middle"
<Umeda> "I've seen that! Pretty awesome movie."
<Yajima> "I haven't seen it personally but I heard it's pretty scary"
<Maimai> "Yeah it's scary like Chisa's face"

<Umeda> "Don't eat too much, Nakki. You might explode and make some big gooey mess"
<Maimai> "So Nakki, you've been featured a lot the past few chapters. How's it feel to be a major character?"
<Nakajima> "Oh it's awesome. I knew that I would have a place somewhere in this story since I'm one of slasha's favorite members"
<Chisa> "You also got knocked out. I bet that felt bad."
<Nakajima> "It did at first but then I recovered and helped finish off Fujimoto. So everything's alright."

Chapter 15 - Scars
The outskirts of Sapporo, Hokkaido - A few years ago
A transport truck arrived at the Army command post and a lone soldier stepped out. She grabbed her equipment and scanned her surroundings. Around her, soldiers chatted and practiced their aim over at the shooting range. She wandered around, looking for someone to tell her what to do.
"Hey, new girl! You look lost. Do you have your papers with you?" another soldier standing by the shooting range called out.
"Yeah sure" the girl replied handing her assignment papers over to the older soldier.
"Oh, you're my new replacement! Finally! I've been hounding HQ forever about that. Anyway, I'm Sgt. Murakami. Murakami Megumi, to be exact" the soldier said as she scanned the papers "What's your name?"
"Pvt. Nakajima Saki, maam" the young girl said, saluting
"Calm down with the saluting and formal stuff, kid. You're not at basic training anymore" Murakami groaned, giving the papers back to Nakajima "Follow me. You and me are going on a mission and you need to know all the details"
"Ok" Nakajima answered, quickly putting away the papers and following the Sgt.
"Alright, kid, today we're heading into southern Sapporo. The full scale invasion doesn't start until tomorrow but HQ wants us to take out some enemy positions so we'll have less trouble taking the city. We'll be dropped off on the edge of friendly territory. Our first target should be about 10 minutes away. We leave in a hour so be ready, you understand?" Megumi explained as the two soldiers walked over to boxes filled to the top with ammo.
"I...I guess so" a confused Nakajima replied
"Good now go practice your aim. sport. I gotta go handle some business" Murakami said before walking over to a group of soldiers
"She's a bit confusing, huh?" a voice from behind Nakajima asked. The Private quickly turned around to find a soldier carrying a notebook. The soldier was reading the notebook and trying to talk at the same time.
"Yeah, my head's spinning" she answered
"Yep, Megu's just a little on edge because she has only one mission to go before she gets to go on vacation. I'm Sgt. Kago Ai, by the way." the soldier bowed and said "Anyway, let's get you on the shooting range, pup"
The two walked over to the shooting range, which, in reality was a bunch of helmets on sticks in front of a destroyed building.
"Alright pup, if you can hit 3 helmets in a row, I'll give you 1000 yen" Kago explained handing Nakajima a rifle
The Private aimed the rifle at a helmet. She pulled the trigger and stumbled back from the recoil of the rifle.
"Oh you hit one! Good job, newbie" Kago yelled, almost shocked
Nakajima continued to shoot at the helmets and hit two more. She almost practiced throwing grenades at the destroyed building. On her second try, she threw one right through the window.
"Wow! I guess I owe you money then for those helmets, pup." Kago said before pointing over at a nearby truck "Your truck looks like it's almost ready. Doesn't time fly when you're shooting at helmets? You better go meet up with Megu"
Saki grabbed some ammo and grenades and joined up with Murakami.
"You ready to head out, kid?" she asked "Let's go!"
The two hopped up into the back of the truck and left the command post. Nakajima peeked outside as they entered the city. There were no people, destroyed buildings and the smell of smoke everywhere they went. Soon they stopped in front of a destroyed shrine.
"This is our stop, kid. From here on out, it's all enemy territory. You ready for your first taste of combat?" Megumi asked, climbing out of the truck.
"Sure, I guess" Nakajima answered as Megu helped her out of the truck
The soldiers marched cautiously further into the city. As they reached a street crossing, Murakami noticed something and pulled Nakajima over to a nearby wall.
"What happened? What's wrong?" Saki asked frantically
"Shut up!" Murakami whispered, putting a hand over the Private's mouth and putting a finger over her own mouth. She peeked out around the corner "I see enemies camped out. Maybe we can ambush them."
The two soldiers jumped out from around the corner and fired at the terrorists, who didn't even have time to grab their weapons before they were cut down.
"Let's check for supplies over there and get outta here. Anyone nearby would've heard those shots" Megumi commanded as she picked up some grenades from the fallen enemies. Saki stood still, shocked at what she just seen.
"What's the matter, kid? Never seen shooting before?" Megu asked, patting the younger girl on the back
"No it's just...I thought that they would...you know...fight back" Nakajima replied
"You know the point of an ambush is...to get them before they get you, right?" Megu said dryly, handing Nakajima some grenades "Make sure you use these wisely"
The two continued walking through the city until they reached the top of a hill. At the bottom of the hill was a medium sized park. In the park, dozens of terrorist were camped out.
"Are we gonna attack all of those guys?" Nakajima asked, making sure to keep her voice at a whisper.
"We aren't but I know who is" Murakami answered, pulling out a portable radio "HQ, requesting airstrike on Location B-30"
"Confirmed. Striking the target now" the voice on the other side of the radio said
5 minutes later, helicopters flew by and attacked the park with several missiles. The surviving terrorists scrambled and scattered into the surrounding area.
"Let's go secure the area" Megumi commanded, already running toward the park as Saki quickly followed
The soldiers entered the park where Murakami suggested they split up to "clear up any resistance"
"Alright you head east" she explained "I'll head west and we'll meet back here later. Got it? Move out, kid"
As Nakajima moved further into the park, she noticed a bathroom.
"Awesome! A bathroom. I really gotta go!" Saki thought, walking over to the building.
She opened the door and walked in. As she searched for the lightswitch, she was blindsided by a terrorist wearing sunglasses and a black camoflague suit and carrying a knife and dropped her rifle. They both fell to the ground. She grabbed the terrorist's arm, trying to stop the weapon. The terrorist used all of his strength to slice Saki's forehead.
"Hehe, I'll kill you now, you stupid government dog" the terrorist said with a smile
After that strike, the enemy prepared to attack again but Saki managed to push the terrorist off of her. The suprised enemy stumbled back and landed on his back. Nakajima picked up the rifle and took care of the terrorist before he could react.
Saki then exited the bathroom. She felt blood coming from her forehead.
"Ah! I'm bleeding. I gotta find a medic. Gotta get back to camp." she thought as she wandered through the park.
Near a playground, she noticed a abandoned pickup truck. She jumped in and tried to hot wire it.
"Ok if the video games are right, then that means I have to do this...and put that here" she said to herself as she connected some wires. Soon, she heard the "Vroom!" of the motor.
"Now that the hard part's over, let's find the Sgt. and get outta here" Saki thought, putting the truck into gear and driving through the park. A few minutes later, she noticed Murakami walking over a damaged bridge.
"Hey kid. Seems like you had a bit of a fight." Megumi grinned, strapping her rifle to her shoulder. "Can I have a ride?"
"Be my guest" Nakajima replied, opening the passenger door. But before the Sgt. could get in...
"They're trying to run."
"The cowards!"
"Kill them both!"
Several terrorists jumped out and shot at the truck. Megumi fired back at the enemies and Nakajima fired out the window.
"Nakajima, get outta here. I'll take 'em out. Get to safety"
"But but--" Saki began, suprised at what her commander just said
"That's a direct order, Pvt!!" Murakami interrupted "Get. Out. Of. Here. Now."
Saki reluctantly drove away, leaving her boss to battle the terrorists alone. Soon, she arrived back at the command post and had her wound fixed. As she sat by the medical tent, Kago approached her.
"I guess Megu didn't make it, huh?" she sadly asked, taking a seat next to the depressed Pvt.
"She told me to leave her there...even after I insisted she come along..." Saki recounted
"Don't worry, pup. If I know Megu, and I'm sure I do, she won't go down easily" Kago said, consoling the young girl
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"So what happened to Murakami, Nakki?" Umeda asked
"She was declared MIA. Even though the Army launched a search of that park and the surrounding area, they didn't find her." Nakajima replied "I still feel a bit guilty that I left her there"
"It was a direct order, Cpl. There was nothing you could do" Captain reminded her
"I know..." She said "But because I was injured, I was awarded the Wound medal. And that's how I got this scar."
Platoon B and C were walking back to camp after fighting Fujimoto. They had been treated for their injuries and Mjr Matsuura said that they would be rewarded for capturing a wanted criminal.
"So what do you think we'll get for beating Fujimoto?" Arihara asked, trying to change the subject
"Maybe money!" Hagiwara suggested
"No maybe food!!" Momo said
"Why would we get food? Our real reward should be the feeling of doing a good deed!" Yajima said in a motherly way. Her idea was met by a unanimous "Shut up!" from her fellow soldiers.
They soon reach the camp and a few days later, they were given 100 thousand yen each for their service...and Umeda had to buy everyone dinner...again.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I love to end on a good note. So pretty soon, I'll start working on the next story arc.
-
Nice chapter!. Thanks for the update, slasha! :muffin:
Talking about megumi is really sad, good thing you write that she is MIA so there is a hope? :D Just don't want to imagine they'll fight her in the near future because of some unfortunate events :cry:
How can a soldier go using a deserted toilet while in a mission?! Lolol. That is just ridiculous. Soldier do it the barbarian way, if you catch my drift :P
Wound medal?! pffftttmuahahahaha. I guess they give "Cowardice of The Army" medal too.
I think this fill up like half of my stomach :D Pretty good duh.
-
zig - I was actually trying to fit Megu somewhere in the story guess that chapter was the best choice after all :lol: . Anyway I plan for Megu to be mentioned sometime in the future.
Oh and when you gotta go, you gotta go :rofl:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 16 - A New Assignment
"Man it's cold out here today...make sure you bring your jacket, Mai-chan" Chisa advised as she exited the barracks
"What are you, my mother?! Of course I got my jacket, you boyish freak" the younger girl replied angrily just before receiving a smack to the face
"Hey girls, it's too cold for fighting!" Erika calmly said to the fighting couple
It was the middle of November and the winter winds were sweeping in from the north. The base had finally started to calm down from Cpt. Fujimoto's arrest and Platoon B and C's wounds had healed.
"Another day without those stupid Aces means another party!" Tokunaga said as she and Platoon B joined up with C.
"I second that, Chii-chan!!" Momo said
The group was almost at the door when Maimi noticed someone approaching them.
"What are you doing here?" she asked with anger in her voice "I thought you were gone forever"
"I'm not scared of you anymore" Okai announced as the person came closer
"Calm down, Okai" the person said "It's just me, Tanaka. No Aces or anything. Plus I don't want your money anymore."
"What are you doing here?" Yajima repeated, still with a sense of hostility
"Well when I was allowed back on base, I decided to find you guys and let you know what happened to me and the others" Tanaka explained
"Ok what happened to everyone?" Arihara asked, focusing all of her attention on the storyteller
"I was court-martialed and demoted to Pvt because of you guys. Don't worry though. I ain't mad at you. I like being a Private. A lot less work." the former Ace said
"What happened to the other Aces?" Captain asked
"Well Michishige got 10 years in jail. She would've got 3 but she and the judge didn't get along. She always has to be the cute one...Kamei got 15 years in jail and hard labor. They sent her up north to Hokkaido to work on rebuilding projects, I think." Tanaka continued
"And Fujimoto?" Hagiwara asked
"Ah, Miki-sama, she got the worst punishment of all. 60 years in jail without any chance of parole. If she's still alive by then, she'll be a old lady." Reina answered
"She deserves all 60" Natsuyaki declared as everyone else nodded in agreement
"What...about that stupid Mano?" Ishimura, who still needed help walking, asked
"I read that they initially planned 50 years in jail for her but instead she got 40 years. Lucky break even though her police record will be ruined forever" Tanaka explained
Tanaka was talking to the group until they heard a loudspeaker.
"Will Platoons B and C report to the commander's office please" the voice over the loudspeaker announced
"Ahhh man I wanted to go eat pizza" Okai groaned
"Don't worry, Chisa. We'll eat another day..." Maimai replied hopefully
The group headed to the office. Inside, Col. Nacchi was waiting for them.
"Ah good you guys are here. Me and Gen. Nakazawa need to talk to you." she said
They entered Gen. Nakazawa Yuko's, the base commanders, office.
"Sit down girls. I have an assignment for you" the general commanded
"What is it, maam? Does Mjr. Yaguchi want us to clean out her office again?" Erika joked
"I wish it was that simple, Sergeant, but this is a matter of life and death" Nakazawa replied pulling out a map of the area "This is Camp Aki here. West of here, at the bottom of the mountain is a huge forest that we codenamed "Aoki Forest". Earlier today, a helicopter transporting Chinese troops headed for Camp Aki for training exercises disappeared somewhere over the forest. We need you guys to find them. If they aren't saved, it could turn into a international incident"
"We've prepared a kit for you girls. In it is water, medical supplies, and a map" Nacchi piped up pointing to a box full of backpacks
"Why were we picked for this mission anyway?" Natsuyaki asked
"Me and Nacchi talked about how you girls handle the Aces situation. We also debated on sending Ishimura but we decided that she was healthy enough to fight" Gen Nakazawa answered
"So when do we leave anyway?" Yajima questioned
"It would be best if you leave immediately. The faster you find those Chinese troops, the better. Dismissed" the Col. replied with a salute
The group exited the office and walked towards the camp exit.
"How do you think this mission will go? You think we'll get lost in the forest?" Momo asked uncertainly
"Don't worry Momo-chan" Suzuki reassured her, putting a hand on the girl's shoulder "We'll go in there, find them, bring them home, and eat a big meal"
"I hope you're right..." Momo mumbled
They walked over to the hill overlooking the forest. In front of them was a giant sea of green
"Somewhere out there...are troops waiting for us. Let's not keep them waiting, team!" Captain said before starting down the hill.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well I guess we have officially started the second story arc. I plan for it to have some drama but I will still put some comedy and action in there too. Time for some facts about the first story arc:
-The Lucky 30 was based on the Komoris from the game Red Steel
-Originally I planned to introduce Platoon B earlier in the story and they were supposed to be Platoon C's rivals
-Kamei's outfit was inspired by Sakura Mankai
-I almost placed the story in a warzone
-Chisa was supposed to be a snooty rich kid but she's just a easily-angered, rich kid
-
Hehe the Aces got what they deserved. LOL at the reason why Sayu's term got longer. Manoeri's 'Lucky' aura made her term shorter? :lol:
New mission! Enemy Chinese troops! o/
Easliy-angered, rich kid Chisa is still <3
-
wordsworth - I didn't mean for them to be evil...lol@Lucky Aura
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 17 - The Forest
"It's so dark in here. Hold me new Sarge!" Suzuki cried grabbing on to Umeda's arm
"We've only been in this forest for 20 minutes. There's nothing to worry about, Airi" Erika replied trying to pull her arm away
"Hey I wonder what we'll find in here" Yajima said pushing branches out of the way
"I hope we find some otaku's hentai stash in here..." Arihara mumbled to Natsuyaki
"And then we can sell the issues we don't like and keep the profits" Miyabi chuckled
"Ok everyone, keep an eye out for any sign of those troops." Shimizu commanded "They could be anywhere around here"
The group crept through the overgrown forest, pushing branches away and stepping over long dead trees. They barely said a thing the whole time. Before long Chisato noticed something up ahead.
"Hey I see someone over there by that river." she said
They approached the person, who looked like a fisherman.
"Soldiers! Here? What are you doing in these parts?" he asked putting more bait on his fishing hook
"We're looking for some missing Chinese troops. You have seen them, have you?" Erika asked
"Chinese troops, eh? Yeah...sure. Follow me" the fisherman answered picking up his equipment and walking away as everyone followed him
They walked through the forest until the overgrown brush turned into a dirt trail.
"A dirt trail! People actually go through this place?!" Erika thought upon noticing the trail. The group eventually reached a village with buildings made from scrap metal.
"So this is where the troops are. Compared to this place, Camp Aki is like the Imperial Palace." Okai mumbled
"Ok where are the Chinese soldiers at?" Maimi asked the fisherman
"In here." he answered opening the door to a dark red metal shack. The girls walked in expecting to see friendly soldiers but instead they were greeted by an empty room.
"Where's the soldiers?" Momo questioned looking around the room
"The door!" Captain shouted, as the door suddenly slammed shut
"Heh heh I can't believe it, Matsuoka! We actually captured goverment troops. The Commander will be proud." they heard a voice outside the building say
"Hey let us outta here!!" Hagiwara yelled, banging on the door "Let us out now!!"
"You're not coming out of there until the government gives into our demands!" another voice replied
"What demands? Who are you?" Shimizu questioned, leaning on the locked door
"We are the Wolves of Hokkaido!" the fisherman announced
"You can't be. We beat you in the war." Nakajima pointed out
"You think you did. But some of us managed to escape you and live in secret. We were originally going to go to Aki and kidnap troops but since you walked into our laps, we don't have to do that. Now that we've captured you, we can hold you guys for ransom and force the goverment to fund us" the other guy said
"You better let us out of here right now, you hear me?!" Natsuyaki yelled, banging on the door. Her demands were met with silence. The two people outside had left.
"We're trapped. What are we going to do?" Airi whimpered
The group stayed in the room, occasionally attacking the door. After a while, the door started to give way and the soldiers gave one final push. The door fell over and they exited the building.
"We're finally outta there" Okai said, taking a breath of fresh air
"We must've been in there for a while, though. It looks late." Hagiwara replied
"Hey those troops have escaped! Let's get 'em!" they heard someone yell. Soon they were surrounded by several thugs or "yakuza wannabes" (as Miyabi put it).
"You're surrounded, government swine." the fisherman said, stepping out of the crowd "You won't get out of here alive"
"Wait I got an idea" Maimi suddenly said, signalling the thugs to stop "How about we have a fight. 3 of your strongest vs 3 of our strongest. If we win, we move on. If you win, you can hold us here until those demands are met"
"Hmmmm what do you think, Commander Konno?"
A woman wearing a white robe stepped forward.
"I accept your idea. Okamoto, Kitano, and Matsuoka will fight you" she replied "Who will you choose?"
Natsuyaki, Arihara, and Umeda stepped forward.
"You three? Alright then, Okamoto first." the commander said as the fisherman stepped forward.
"I'll beat him. Just count the minutes before he's on the ground bleeding." Natsuyaki chuckled, walking towards her opponent
"All ready? Fight!!"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now Miyabi has to fight that fisherman who brought them here in the first place. Will she win? What moves will the fisherman use?
-
Oh, I missed commenting on last chapter -_-" Btw, the first and second chapters of the new arc are interesting :D
Konkon is the bad guy :O This gonna be a messy fight. Looking forward to the next chapter o/
"Somewhere out there...are troops waiting for us. Let's not keep them waiting, team!" Captain said before starting down the hill.
A new adventure begins!
-
ziggurat - I'll try to make it as messy as I can. Also I was trying to put Konkon on the good side but things happen
Chapter 18 - The Fisherman's Catch
"You're gonna die for putting us in this trap" Miyabi said, staring down the fisherman
"You wish, kid. I've been fighting people since you were a baby sleeping in a dirty diaper" the fisherman snickered
Immediately after that, Okamoto suckerpunched Miyabi in the right eye. The Corporal flew back and landed on her back. She rubbed her eye before slowily rising back up.
"No one...sucker punches Natsuyaki Miyabi!!" she yelled "Now you're dead!"
Natsuyaki immediately launched a barrage of punches at the fisherman. He blocked them at first but they soon overwhelmed him and he was hit in the mouth and nose. Then Miyabi stepped back to finish her attack with a kick. The Fisherman was hit in the belly and fell to his knees.
"You're pretty good, girly. But can you beat this?" Okamoto said before pulling Miyabi's leg out from under her and causing her to fall.
"Hey! That's cheating!!" Momo yelled from the crowd
"You're in our domain now, government scum. There's no rules here!" a Wolves member replied
Okamoto started to crawl onto Miyabi to pin her down but she quickly kicked him in the face and quickly got back up. The kick had broken Okamoto's nose and it was now slowly bleeding.
"Owwww..." he groaned as he rubbed his nose "You're going down, kid"
As Okamoto rose up, he delivered an uppercut to Miyabi's chin. The attack stunned her for a moment and Okamoto managed to punch her left cheek, then Miyabi countered with a straight punch. The blow suprised the fisherman and he fell to his knees once again.
"That's it! I'm done fighting fair" Okamoto mumbled "I tried to fight on your level but now it's time to fight dirty." Okamoto pulled out a switchblade, stood up, and charged forward. Miyabi barely dodged the first strike.
"Haha!! Not so easy now, huh? All you can do is run." he laughed as he faced Miyabi, shaking from the surprise attack
Then Okamoto, with a determined look on his face, charged at Miyabi again. This time, Natsuyaki grabbed his arm and twisted it.
"OW ow ow! Don't do that...it might..." Okamoto tried to say before he heard a loud "Crack!!" The knife fell out of his hand and his wrist became limp.
"Heh, without your knife, you're nothing but a stupid crook! Time for some payback!" Miyabi announced before running forward and kicking Okamoto in the face. The fisherman fell on his back and tried to get back up before passing out.
Two Wolves members ran forward, pushed Miyabi aside and checked on their fallen comrade. Fortunately he was just knocked out and not dead. After making sure he was alive, one of the Wolves stood up and announced:
"The winner of this round is, the government dog!!"
As the crowd cheered, Captain and Maimi were quietly making a plan
"Maybe we can find something to distract everyone from the fight. Then we can escape" Maimi explained
"OK there's gotta be a way out of here. Let's get searching." Captain said
The two slipped away and entered a nearby building. They looked for something that made a loud noise.
While the two officers were searching, Wolves members were pulling Okamoto out of the circle. Miyabi returned to pats on the back from her comrades.
"Congrats Miyabi!" Arihara said "That means I'm up next. Wish me luck"
"Matsuoka, you're next!" Commander Konno told a heavy-set man wearing a shirt with some random Engrish on it.
"Hai!" the man replied, stepping into the circle
"Ready? Start!"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So Miyabi has won and now Kanna's fighting. A little shorter than I thought but I've been pretty busy lately so...
-
I'm back after a long writer's block. Hope you didn't stop reading
Chapter 19 - Burn notice
"Come at me, you terrorist punk!" Kanna said
"You're going down, little girl!!" Mastuoka bellowed as he charged forward and tackled Arihara. He then began to choke her "Hehe this is gonna be really easy"
Kanna grabbed her opponent's hands, trying with all of her might to get out of this position.
"I...gotta do something...before he kills me" she thought
As she looked around, she noticed a rock next to her head, grabbed it, and smashed it against Matsuoka's head.
"Ahhh!" Mastuoka cried as he grabbed his head and got off of Kanna. He rubbed the wound and discovered he was bleeding. "You have just made a terrible mistake, kid"
Matsuoka landed a right hook to Kanna's face then a left hook. As he attempted another hook, Kanna managed to dodge it and Matsuoka lost his balance fell to the ground. By now his head wound was bleeding steadily and blood covered part of his face. Also his vision started to get blurry and he felt faint.
"Everything's going...dark...can't stop now" Matsuoka thought grabbing his head "One last push"
Matsuoka got back and charged Kanna. She wasn't prepared for the attack and Matsuoka landed a haymaker to her chin. The blow knocked Kanna to the ground and Matsuoka walked just a little further before collapsing.
The spectators gasped and cheered at the action before Konno made an announcement.
"Whoever gets back up and says 'I win' is the victor"
The crowd waited silently for someone to get up. After 2 long minutes, Kanna slowly started to rise and declared
"I...win...you terrorists"
Platoons B and C cheered as they ran to hug their comrade and medics came in to check on Matsuoka.
As the crowd cheered and booed, Yajima and Shimizu were looking through boxes that they had found.
"What exactly are we for, Yajima?" Captain asked
"Something distracting like a radio or something like...this!" Maimi said holding up a box of matches "We can burn our way outta here"
"Good thinking!"
Yajima split the matches with Captain then they both lit one. They spread some papers around and lit them. The fire quickly spread and soon the building was engulfed in flames. The two officers scrambled out of the building but not before stealing some rifles and Molotov cocktails from one of the boxes.
Konno noticed the fire as she checked on Matsuoka.
"Put out that fire!" she yelled as several Wolves ran in the direction of the fire. As the Wolves approached the burning building, Yajima and Shimizu cut them down with their rifles.
"They have our weapons!" Konno screamed "Kojima take your squad and wipe them out"
A short lanky man and 3 people ran toward the two officers.
"I'm out of ammo!" Yajima said
"Me too! We're dead" Shimizu replied
Just as the group approached, they were hit by gunfire that came from behind Yajima and Shimizu. The Wolves were dead before they hit the ground. As the two officers assessed the situation, they turned around to see who saved them.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Who saved the Captain and Yajima? What will happen next? Stay tuned
