Day 2 of the secret war I've provoked against the Organization.
I've been using the suit quite a lot now and I've got used to its weight and from the research of the kids that I accidentally forgot to use early on but now I've implemented some lightweight materials on the suit while keeping its full protection I've probably shaved around 30lbs of the overall weight. This is just the beginning as I shaved off more Organization agents I came across a familiar face.
"So you're part of the Rippers huh. Quite surprising they could afford all that kit with you." Said a familiar face as I turn around. It's Natalie and seems like she has a new exosuit from the looks of it.
"You must be the famed Miss Lightning. Oh I've heard of you from the rumors suggest you're a very strong fighter and a wielder of a Hypertana."
"Keeping up with research doesn't make you a better fighter you know." Said Natalie as she points out at me with a firm look at me.
Good thing I have my full suit on since I have this cover on my face she can't identify me. Even with a scanner or an X-ray she can't see my real face.
"If you cooperate with me right now I'll let you go, so answer my questions and you'll live as a free man." Said Natalie one of her hand is in the hilt of her sword preparing for a quickdraw.
"We're not stopping here Miss Lightning. Stopping me will cause more harm than help you know. But if you're just asking questions we could do that unless your left hand right there is waiting to cut someone in half am I not wrong?"
"No you're not. I have a few questions for you about what's your business with us starting a war." Said Natalie as she slowly comes close in this tight alleyway as I stand up from sitting down on the cardboard boxes while looking at the dead body I so happen to be there with.
"One is we hate those who hog the entire industry to themselves and reap the rewards for themselves and leaving us small industries living off the smallest profit margins from those who couldn't afford your shitty products anyways. We have Dealer on our side and our weapons have improved upon our arms problem."
"You're starting a fight with the biggest PMC right here buddy don't forget that we could crush you whenever we want." Said Natalie proudly.
"Yeah, and yet your company is so great that a single person has derailed your progress and made you look bad within a few days."
"Why you little!" Here she comes as she charges with her sword launches along with her to do a running quickdraw. Blocking it would be dangerous but if I have to deflect it the better. I pull out Inferno activating its feature to make things interesting.
The swords clash and she stumbles from her attack being deflected away. She acknowledges it then she tries to strike back again with a diagonal slice which I blocked this time successfully. I retaliated with more aggression since I could push more than usual. I managed to knock her backwards.
"What the hell why can't I cut down that blade of yours." Said Natalie as she was confused.
"You're too naïve it appears Miss Lightning. This blade is also a Hypertana in fact this was just made a few days ago and its already been useful for everyone of us and we're planning to mass produce this to arm the rest of our army in order to defeat all of you."
"I thought the Hypertana's are an impossible weapon to make due to its rarity and the amount of work need to make at least one of them. Where did you get that weapon!?" Said Natalie as she couldn't believe there's a new Hypertana in the field and is equal to her own 'Trueno'.
"I got it from our friend named Dealer. I know you heard him before, he managed to made these weapons within a week surprisingly. He said that he has enough money and time to mass produce a lot of them for us to use in this war. He didn't disclosed to us how it was made but we trust him that he will give us the best of the best in the field that the Organization will never produce." As I raise my blade towards her as the edge of the blade begins to glow from the heating element.
"I think you have more than what could you chew there." Said Natalie knowing she has more sword time than me to be frank she does have more skill with the blade than me. I don't have to worry about that though. I know my way through her technique.
"Talk about big talk there Miss Lightning. Show me what you got then." As I stance up preparing to a sword battle.
"You're the one gonna be standing down once I'm done here. And you have to tell me everything you know about the Ripper." Said Natalie as her mask closes up and is in her battle stance.
A few seconds in and we began to clash down. Swords striking each other, clashing each others force into their respective directions. The battle is fierce but it is already finished right from the get go. Natalie stumbles and is becoming sluggish with a enemy she hasn't fought before.
I didn't expect that she would be this surprised and out of focus its not fun to fight this way to be completely honest. So I tried to lure this fight ending on a stalemate so both of us would be anticipating the next battle once we meet again.
"Miss Lightning why so out of touch?" As I intimidate Natalie to force her into a mistake.
"Shut the hell up!" Said Natalie as she charges into me blindly.
"I guess I have to end this one on a draw for now" As I managed to trip her out of balance making her fall onto the ground.
"What the hell was that about?" Said Natalie while pissed.
"I don't want this kind of fighting Miss Lightning. You being out of character and such it's not satisfying so I'm bringing this to a draw until then you have to get stronger if you want to beat me." As I escape the alleyway with my active camo just in the nick of time when she was about to attack again.
