ONYX FACET-7KL CUT-4BG P.O.V

The ship landed and as the doors opened and saw the vast expanse of a forest filled with red, yellow, and orange leaves. As we exited the ship we formed a circle with our backs to the ship. I looked around the area for possible inhabitants and discovered that the forest had surrounded us in the Northern and Eastern directions.

While the Western side was a red clearing with patches of red grass and the southern side showed the entrance to a valley. Lab then suddenly spoke out.

"I'm going to initiate the link."

"Precede." I gave my confirmation.

{Can everyone hear me?}

"Yes. Yup. confirmed. Yes." We collectively replied.

{Good, now let's continue with the mission, any questions?}

With that out of the way we made our way into the valley after Lab put the ship in sentry mode. As we crossed the boundary into the valley that seemed to go on for miles Beryl decided to make some small talk.

{It's nice being on the ground again.}

{Of course you would say that Mr. Mud and Dud.} 6 replied.

{Really not going to let that go are you?} Beryl had a wry smile on his face.

{I had mud and dirt in places because of you.} She further showed her point with a hard glare.

{It was just a spar! I turned the stone into mud so it wouldn't make you poof for the day.}

{Pfft! I wouldn't have poofed from that, you did it because you were a sore loser!}

{I'm a sore loser?! You poofed me afterwards and spent the afternoon in a lava pool with everyone else while I had to spend hours to reform, we're even!}

{Vengeance in a dish best served with an encore.} That's… not how it works 6 and just as Beryl was about to say likewise, Schorl suddenly spoke up.

{Hey, we have company.}

We then turned our attention towards a group of three red haired and two black haired men talking casually as they sat against the valley wall, they appear to be in their mid twenties and have tanned complexions native to this region. What is going on? This area should be secluded, the only source of life here should be animals and beasts.

{Hey captain, what's your call?} Labradorite suddenly asked me.

Orders are orders, I'll report back to command later. We can make mistakes on this planet.

{Beryl uses your powers to cause a rockslide and at the same time Schorl will attack them from long range. Afterwards me and six would move in to take on any stragglers, understand?}

{Confirmed} They all responded.

Beryl put his hands to the valley wall as Schorl brought out his bow and took aim with an arrow in hand.

*Rumble*

As Beryl commanded the valley to break apart, six went into a battle stance and took out her spear and I crouched down in a running position while Lab stayed at the back of the group.

The native group however also noticed this and as large rocks fell down on them one of them yelled out "Move!" as the two black haired individuals jumped to the sides and the three red haired men began shooting streams of fire towards the rocks in an attempt to increase their chances of survival.

*Swoosh* *Swoosh* *Swoosh*

Or would have been if Schorl hadn't fired three arrows towards the red head head group, resulting with the middle native being hit with a headshot causing a portion of brain matter to splatter out of his skull hitting the native to his left. This in turn provided a distraction that resulted in him being shot in the heart before falling to the ground where a piece of molten rock crush him from the chest up.

The third redhead native barely had enough time to react as the arrow pierced him just below the armpit and caused him to spin as both normal and molten rocks began to crush his remains.

The two surviving black headed natives, unaware of the instantaneous assasination that just occurred, began to recover from the collision.

(Six! You get the one at the back, I'll get the front!)

I shouted as both I and Six pressed against the ground and accelerated towards the targets and as dust clouds followed behind us. Six sped past the recovering native as he attempted to get up from the ground and drove her spear into the heart of the second native as he was finished standing up.

I then processed to straighten my hand and plunged it into the kneeling natives temple which resulted in a messy, uneven cut to occur as I withdrew my hand from the side and spilling brain matter and blood in the process.

Standing up and swinging my arm to wipe the blood from my hand and spoke through the link.

(Group status report.)

(Confirmed) (Confirmed) (Confirmed) (Confirmed)

(Good)

I clapped my hands together and as everyone began to draw in closer to me.

(Let's continue the sector sweep and then report to command, this should technically fall into living being but just to make sure.)

Everyone gave their acknowledgement and Lab clapped the small of my back.

(Good job out there, just make sure not to be too capable.)

(What, why?)

(For I am here! And wish to be included!)

I gave her a deadpan stare and flicked her on the head and walked away as she rubbed her head as she called me names through the link. This continued as we walked away from the molten rocks, burned bodies, and bleeding corpses of the natives. I hope I don't have brain matter on me.
