Chapter 26 - Assault. 

The army arrived in a forest, in front of them is a giant mountain. "They are inside the mountain." Said Theodore, looking with a pair of binoculars for a way to break in. "How about we destroy the mountain, a 4x4 will do the trick." Said Rinehart. Theodore shakes his head. "That will be the worst idea that comes to your mind. how about we dig in, and there chaos starts."

Rinehart laughs at the idea, "Well you're the boss." The mechs go underground, now gone. "Prepare 3 cannons to fire in one marked point." Ordered Theodore, he helps them aim in a small part of the mountain. He gets in the mobile operations vehicle. "After I say fire, everyone charges."

He waited for Rinehart to give him a signal that he, Ghost and the others were near the mountain. He hears 2 beeps. "FIRE!" The cannons fire and leave a massive hole in the mountain. The army charge at the command, mech get above ground and enter the hole first.

Rinehart is first and sees 4 people, scared, he kills them all with no hesitation. An alarm goes off. From behind the army gets in. Theodore was one of the last people in. He looks at the inside of the building. "The fuckers… Leave none alive." Theodore said. He rushed through the hallways to find those responsible. Theodore reaches the heart of this base. He sees people dressed in white, swords at the ready around a table.

"Missed me bitches?" The people stay frozen. They knew Theodore was gonna kill them. One of them takes their mask off and starts begging. "You know what's worse? Is that you tried to assassinate me, and now I don't care if you surrender or not." Theodore had no backup, he was all alone against 7 people. "He is all alone, charge at him!" Said one of them, ready their weapons and charge at him.

Theodore swiftly moves through them, they didn't even cut him. "You guys are atrocious. He pulls out his sword. "Come at me." They looked at each other, then back at him, they were not visually scared, but he knew, Theodore laughs at them.

"You, who wanted to eradicate Bloodhearths of the face of Teris are scared of one little Bloodhearth?"

Theodore charges at them, they charge at him, their hands are shaking on their blades, Theodore's hand is steady, he goes through the group like knife through breed, they are now not moving, the rapier is filled with blood, 5 out of seven fall down. The other two are unharmed, looking at the dead bodies they realize the handicap they undervalued kill more than half of them. They try to run.

Theodore throws the rapier to the ground, grabs his pistol and shoots the two in the knees. They fell on the ground and now they started crawling. Theodore puts way the gun and grabs the rapier from the ground. He slowly moves towards the two. "You sons of bitches."

The closer he got they tried harder and harder. "So you are the cause of my missing hand, my father's death and my uncle's misfortunes." He steps over one of them and pierces his back with the rapier, the blade goes to the heart and the man dies. "All of you shall pay." He goes to the other one and pierces his neck. He holds the blade in until the man feel dead. "This is not enough!" He swings the rapier and the head flies 2 meters away.

Seraphine arrives too late, she sees Theodore having blood stains on him, guts all over the floor and 7 people dead. "You did all this by yourself?" Theodore cleans his blade to one of their backs and puts it in its sheath. "I did worse." He walks past her to find the others, she walks behind him. Her face expression wasn't showing anything else but disgust.
