Suddenly the alarm goes on. Not only that, even though it sounded faint, Chris heard sounds like screaming and banging.
"Everyone, we are being attacked! There has been a strange movement on the deck of the ship and it looks like it wants to force its way in. I repeat, we are being attacked!"
"Looks like someone's welcoming us, huh? Chris. Cass. get ready!"
They all ran out and immediately prepared to shoot. When they almost arrived, they did not think that there were pirates attacking.
"Enemy attack! How rude."
They shoot one by one.
Unfortunately, Chris saw something strange in the pirates that made him pause for a moment. What chris saw, that they were all screaming so wildly.
"Chris, what's wrong?"
At first Philip was surprised at Chris' behavior. Until Chris got ready to shoot.
"Aim them in the head! They're not human."
"What do you mean?"
Cassandra was confused by what Chris said.
Unfortunately, Chris immediately shot one of the pirates in the head. They were both surprised that the pirate who had been shot by Chris died immediately. But not long after..
"What's that?"
And sure enough, they were both shocked. The head that Chris shot earlier immediately issued something strange, like...
"What's that?"
Unlike Philip and Cassandra, Chris shot the creature without hesitation until it finally exploded and made the pirate's body unable to move anymore.
"Shoot them in the head, NOW!!"
Seeing Chris without hesitation giving orders, Cassandra and Philip obeyed and immediately shot the pirates.
The battle was inevitable. Even worse, the pirates weren't easy to shoot either. Because as long as they shoot, some of the pirates can dodge. What's more, they also opened fire towards Chris and the others.
But with tenacity, they are able to avoid and can counter attack. In the end all the pirates were shot. At least the situation has calmed down, for a while. Although it takes quite a long time.
"You guys all right?"
"Yes."
"I think so."
In contrast to Chris, they both felt how tired they were when aiming at the enemy.
"Chris, how did you know it wasn't human just now? Cass and I have never faced anything like this before."
"The eyes changed, and their aggressiveness increased drastically. There's no mistake, the pirates have become BOW (Bio Organic Weapon.) Maybe that answers all the questions that are on your mind. And maybe this is why the BSAA accepted this mission. I think this will be very dangerous mission.."
Unfortunately, that actually made Chris think about his mission with Jill. Even though Chris doesn't want to remember what happened while carrying out his mission.
"For us."
Seeing Chris who was silent again and also lowered his weapon, Philip approached him.
"Are you all right, Chris?"
"Yeah. I'm fine."
Even though Chris turned his face because he was disturbed by the incident again. Philip suddenly changed the subject after seeing Chris' anxiety.
"Maybe we should go back inside and check our weapons. Besides, we should also see Nathan since this is his first time navigating this ship."
"You're right. Come on, chris!"
Cassandra suddenly pushed Chris as if she didn't want to miss anything important.
(Looks like this won't be easy. Philip and I will help Chris as much as we can, Dominic.)
Be it Philip or Cassandra, they both begin to understand an anxiety that has been haunting Chris all along.
