Strength
"Two hundred and fifty meters isn't bad. Not bad at all."
Strength shifted Lucias's dead weight from one shoulder to another and moved quickly at a half-crouched; this wasn't exactly a fighting tunnel, after all. Every now and again, they'd pass by another dark hole leading down to another tunnel arching away. After what seemed like an eternity in that damn hole, their tunnel began to arch towards the surface. Abruptly it ended in a flat wall and a ladder leading to the surface. Strength nodded at it.
"You first."

Wrath
Wrath wiped the blood off and then with a brief flash the rest boiled off her body.
"Yeah, well I didn't get bloody at all, but I did blow up Glut's motor pool with one shot." Wrath patted the massive rifle next to him with a grin.
"I expect you relieved your frustration over Lilith's torture on some people." Wrath pulled out some MRE's and passed her some.

Justice
Justice climbed up the ladder quickly and lifted the escape hatch slowly. He peeked out to see what he could see. It was clear so he slid out and held the door open, keeping his rifle up. He had forgotten to drop his glamor so one of his own soldiers placed a pistol to his head.
"Set, drop the pistol, its me, Justice." His voice was the same and so Set hesitated. With a quick snap he was on the ground, no harm was done. Justice let the glamor drop and Set sighed and got back up.
"We're clear Strength, come on up." Justice was on his knees ready to haul the kid up.

Strength glanced at Lucias and sighed lightly. This is going to be fun. She held him lightly by the back of his belt with one hand and climbed slowly with the other. Eventually she managed to reach Justice and handed Lucias off.
"That kid needs to lay off the twinkies."
Strength crawled out and breathed a sigh of relief to finally see daylight.
"It could've been worse. We might have run into Lucifer."

Envy
"Thank you."
Envy glanced at Wrath's rifle, and nodded.
"I saw the explosion, I think. Or at least heard it. It made a nice distraction to kill a couple of soldiers."
She ripped the MRE open with her teeth, without bothering to look at what the contents were. Envy squeezed some PB&J sauce onto a "shingle" and bit into it, trying not gag at the taste.
"I'm saving my frustrations for Lilith, but I did have a spot of fun. You? Or was the Motor pool it?"

Justice
Justice hauled the kid through the hole and deposited him where Set bound him properly.
"Yeah well Set was about to put a bullet through my brain. That's what I get for walking around looking like a gaudy punk." Justice helped haul Strength up just as the scream of artillery was heard.
"There goes the neighborhood." Justice grabbed Lucias and they all tarted out for the Wall.

Wrath
Wrath opened his MRE and looked inside. He grinned, it was the holy grail of MREs, beef stroganof.
"No I didn't do much more than that. I wanted to see if I could make that shot, and I can. That means I should be able to rip apart their airfield before the Navy arrives with the hornets and JSFs." He dug into the beef, it was still bad, but not as bad as others were. He'd rather being tearing into human flesh, but there was none to be had at the moment.
"The spear should strike sometime tomorrow afternnon, so we have to find a spot where I can make the shot and take out their jets." Wrath finished the beef and tossed the can away.

Envy
"Why not just set up a few SAM sites and shoot the bastards down before they have a chance to really fly?"
Envy'd stomached all the s**t on shingles as she could. She moved onto the main course: a cold serving of Spaghetti and meatballs. Translation: army noodles and ketchup. Envy gobbled that down as fast as possible without tasting anything.
"This stuff is horrible. I miss Las Vegas. I had the best chef in town."
She sighed, pushed the remains of the cold meal aside and snuggled against Wrath, her head resting on his shoulder. She wanted to ******** him, to have his seed burn that thing festering in her belly right out of her. A time and a place, Envy. Give it time.
"I want to see how my Bloodhounds will preform. Might be worth the effort of making other versions of the model. You know, ship to ship, ship to air, air to ground, that kind of thing. Tomorrow will be perfect to try it out."

"You looked horrible in that anyway. Don't ever go evil; not really a good look for you."
Strength's smile was abruptly cut off by the shrieking of the shells; she followed Justice and Lucias quickly. Poor Set was leading the way when a shell hit the traverse he was rounding. He went into the nearest bolt hole and his legs went into no man's land. Strength didn't have any time to worry over him as the "rain storm" picked up. After what seemed like an eternity, they finally made it back to the Wall. Strength held her side where it was slowly growing wet with her blood; a sliver had managed to nick her but it wasn't anything to worry about.
"How's our boy doing? Still in one piece?"

Wrath
"Okay, then, I'll go after the fuel. If they have a fuel shortage they'll fly to conserve. Making it easier to kill in the skies." Wrath wrapped an arm around her and kissed her forehead.
"Still rather blow the whole thing up." He chuckled as he rubbed her arm slowly. He wished they were back in Vegas and ruling the universe. Soon.

Justice
"He's fine. Some bruises, but nothing more." Justice dropped at the field medic and then sat down. He was tired now. His mind strained to the limit trying to get them back to the wall in one piece.
"Wake him up, feed him, water him, then prep him for an interrogation. He'll need to be hooked to a IV to stay alive." Justice was going to enter his mind and dig till he found something.

Envy
"They wouldn't be dumb enough to put all their eggs in one basket, so to speak. I'm sure there's at least three airfields. You can burn one of them. Raze it flat. Or even better, find one of their ammunition dumbs. See some real fireworks."
Envy could still feel Wrath's kiss burning against her forehead. It felt wonderful. She leaned up and kiss him just under his jaw line, her lips cool against he burn of his flesh.
"Do you ever get too hot?"

The MO nodded and ordered an exhausted looking nurse away to go find a suture and IV kit to patch Lucias up; he left to go find food for the boy. Strength dropped down next to Lucias and gently patted his cheek, careful not to hit him too hard. With a series of groans, Lucias finally woke up. He started as soon as his mind processed that two Virtues were leaning over him and reached for one of his weapons, only to find that they were no longer there.
"Who are you? Who were you looking for, before?"
Lucias licked his lips twice nervously and glanced between Justice and Strength.

Wrath
"We'll just find an ammo dump then. Probably close to the Wall. Oh the Wall. I still remember tearing that ******** temple to the ground. Do you remember, we brought the sixth legion into the streets and declared the jews as the enemy and began raping and pillaging. Then we made it to the temple and began pulling it down stone by stone." Wrath closed his eyes remembering the chaos and destruction they had wrought as the Roman legion.
"Only to cold, but when you're with me I try to stay cooler just for you." He kissed her again.

Justice
"He's not gonna talk Strength. The devotion that has been layed into his mind is to strong. I'll have to go in and strip him clean."
Justice groaned and stretched his arms then he stood and walked over to the boy and gripped his head, two fingers on his temple. Justice breathed in and then breathed out, his mind slipping into the boys.
It was riddled with images of a girl, she was young, but somehow old at the same time. Her name was being repeated over and over, the sound distored and evil. It made Justice sick.
