It was just a normal day in the security unit until that damn alarm went off and all units had to report to sector 36 for an apparent Nightmare breakout. When we got there the lights were off in the whole hall, we all checked the cells for anything that could sound the alarm, once we got to cell 342009 we saw that the glass was cracked and saw two yellow hues. My squadron and squadron number 4809 were both assigned to eliminate the targets. When we reached the doors and swiped out keycards, the door didn't open, like something was holding the door shut. We had our biggest guys run into the door to hopefully bust it open but we ended up with a dislocated fractured arm and a fractured arm.
I face the healer of the group, a sorceress. "Amra, heal the two please. I'm going to the front to try and break the glass. Captain Marcis, come here." A tall Centar walked up to me. "I'm going to need to borrow your lieutenant, if that's ok?"
Marcis turned to another tall figure in a long cloak; bow in hand and a quiver of arrows on her hip. When she dropped her hood, two elf ears popped up. Marcus ordered her "Yala, you are to go with captain Abejundio de la Rosa to the front to try and break the glass, you both should have enough power to do so." He turned back to me. "I'm going to stay here with the other 5 and try to break this door down. See you inside, captain." He bowed his hat and walked off.
Yala walked up to me and when she walked past me she said under her breath "Half breed, what a disgrace of our DNA."
For a only 10-15 foot walk, it took a while and was very awkward. When we got to the front glass, we readied our bows and fired several rounds. After the last arrow hit the floor, I was exhausted and went to examine the glass. We made about 3.5 inches of damage, if we continued like this, we would get through the 5 layers of bulletproof glass; 16.5 inches thick, will take 26 more full power arrows. I turn to Yala and shake my head that we should turn back, then I hear banging on the glass behind me and I turn around to face the glass and see a boy with dirty blond hair and ripped clothing, covered in blood and holding onto something. A black cloak like captain Marcis.
The boy disappeared back into the darkness, too far for our flashlights to go, then I heard a bang, creak, whack, bang,and finally a loud crash. It was the rest of the team barged in with dagger and swords in the front and Amra in the back getting ready to cast spells and healing. Wherever they were shining their lights the yellow hue moved and eventually the lights fixed on the kid I saw just a few moments before with a black dagger in hand, crying and shaking. When the kid saw them, he waved his hand and screamed for them to get out of here, but it was too late, a loud shriek was made from above them and when they moved their flashlights up. There was a sight to be seen, a pure black metal figure with flesh or organs of some kind dangling from its body. As it pounces to attack them, captain Marcis swung his sword from right to left, flinging the Nightmare to the other side of the room and into the abyss.
Yala and I quickly ran to the door to give support, within the 2 seconds it took us to get there and shoot arrows, One of the bigger guys was being ripped apart in the center of the room and his body, or at least what was left was flown on the table right above the boy that was holding onto someone. Our last two people with daggers and swords (including captain Marcis) went in and me Yala, Amra, and a changeling all started launching projectiles at the Nightmare. As soon as captain Marcis and a dwarf were almost to the table, a large claw came from its left to right cutting the top of the dwarf and Captain Marcis barely blocked with his sword and went sliding across the room and hit the glass.
As soon as the claw came down we all launched arrows and spells at the Nightmare sending it back and to the wall. When the Nightmare hit the wall, chains formed around it and bound it to the wall and floor. The Nightmare kept on struggling, trying to escape from its new bounds. Everyone ran to check on captain Marcis and the dwarf and once we checked on them, we checked on the boy and the person he was holding. He was holding a young female with fuzzy black hair, soft skin, black battle armor and a black cloak with a food hole in her abdomen. I looked at the boy who was still crying into the girl muttering the words "This is my fault, why did she have to die?" over and over again.
I pat the boy on the shoulder and when he looked at me I asked "What is your name, what happened here?"
The boy muttered in a quiet and shaky voice "I am Wade Becker and this is Balastine and she is still breathing but she has lost too much blood to transport. Now she is going to die because of me." He threw his head back down to Balastine.
I took a deep breath and said to him while taking off my glove, "lay her down and I might be able to do something, but not much." Mr. Becker nodded his head and put her down slowly and then stood up and walked away.
I placed my hands right above her abdomen and muttered ancient words and her body started to glow and her wound started to close. Right before I could finish healing her completely, I heard Mr. Becker's voice, but much deeper and when I looked over the table and shined my flashlight, Mr. Becker said "Activate protocol 18B35C, termination." As soon as he said those words, he fell to the floor and the Nightmare exploded into tiny pieces.
When I patched up the girl, Captain Marcis walked up to me in an arm sling. "How is she doing?" We both looked over at Mr. Becker and then looked back and nodded our heads in agreement. We are going to have a problem very soon.
