8 - Part D:

Silver Wing Academy Central...

Three exhausted students who are fending off a horde of enemies on the escalator that leads to the third floor are reaching their limit.

One of the three who's a tall and muscular fourth year student wielding a Gun Saber states his complain.

"Damn it! Where are the reinforcements?"

The cool looking glasses wearing fifth year students who's wielding a plasma saber with a purple blade refutes him.

"Less complaining, more fighting."

"Easier said than done!"

The tall and muscular student returns his refute.

"Look, Yuka is doing her job without complaining. You should learn from her."

The cool looking glasses wearing fifth year student said and the tall and muscular fourth took a glance at their female companion who is a third-year student who's busy fending off the horde with her MBP 16.

Pepepepew* Pepepepew* Pepepepew*

The tall and muscular fourth year student accepts defeat.

"Yeah yeah!"

And tries his best to fend off the horde.

Suddenly, something fly and smashes into the middle of the horde which send a couple of them flying.

Boosh* Bam*

"Woah! Dude! That was awesome!"

The trio set their gazes towards the boy wearing a bonnet carrying booster sword who's in the middle of the horde.

"Who the hell is that?"

The tall and muscular fourth year student asked.

"Uhh.. Reinforcements?"

The their female companion answered him.

Suddenly, several plasma daggers with a bluish green blade fly towards the enemies and slashes a couple of them.

"Hey Zack! Don't just fly off without warning like that!"

The trio set their gazes on the boy with layered black hair who is shouting from the floor bellow.

"Sorry dude!"

The boy wearing a bonnet apologizes.

Soon after, a gust of wind from behind the horde send several of them flying.

The trio look towards the person who did that and saw a tall and beautiful boy with semi long blond hair who's carrying a Gun Saber.

He smiled playfully and starts groping the enemies butts.

"Hey there muscle head! You seemed to have a nice pair of buns."

He said to them in a flirting manner.

After that, more students from the Silver Wing Academy start flooding in.

"This is our reinforcements?"

The trio asked themselves.

Silvertech Space Station 15 Central Plaza...

Five Silver Wing Academy students are being surrounded by massive numbers of students from the Rising Phoenix Academy students.

What happened to the rest of the students of the Silver Wing Academy?

They got exhausted and the enemy used that to their advantage and defeat them.

The defeated students were carried off by the repairbots.

The five student who are surrounded still have some fight left in them so they didn't show fear and just glare at them.

"Fire!"

The student who seemed to be the leader of the front line shouted.

The students of the Rising Phoenix Academy obeyed and start firing their guns.

Bang* Bang* Bang* Ratatata* Ratatata* Ratatata* Bagoom* Bagoom*...

After consecutive chains of gun shots, the leader tells them to stop.

"Hold your fire! Hold your fire!"

The student of the Rising Phoenix Academy obeyed him and stop firing their guns.

As they did, they saw something strange which left them dumbfounded.

The five students who are hit by countless barrage of bullets are unscathed.

Even the five students from the Silver Wing Academy find it strange as well.

The commander try to find out what's going on by drawing his handgun and firing it at the five students.

Bang* Pew*

He did, the rubber bullet hits an invisible wall and bounces off.

He saw that, he couldn't believe his eyes.

"What the hell is this!"

The leader expressed his thoughts.

Suddenly, countless fire bolts start raining down on the Rising Phoenix Academy students along with a barrage of bullets and particle beams.

Boooooosh* Ratatatata* Ratatata* Ratatata* Pshoooo* Pshoooo* Pshoooo*

"Booyah!"

The boy with spiky blond hair screamed from the top of his lungs while firing his machine gun.

"Die! Die! Die! Die! DIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEE! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

As a girl with short brown curly hair screamed in a frenzy while firing her beam rifle.

A beautiful girl with red twin tails charge towards the enemies with her ignost spear while her whole body is on fire.

(Note: Ignost spear is the weapon that Wren used during Vol. 1 chapter 4.)

For some reason, this girl really looks angry.

"That stupid weirdo getting all chummy with that girl! Aaaargh!"

The girl with red twin tails said to herself angrily.

A beautiful mature girl with long dark blue who's watching the girl with red twin tails from the sidelines mumbles to herself.

"Sigh! I wish Linel would pay more attention to her highnesses feelings."

Rising Phoenix Academy Entrance...

(Linel)

Here we are at the entrance sorting our plan.

"So here's what we're going to do. We will ignore the enemies around us and only fight the ones blocking our way. That way we will be able to reach the principals office. Any questions?"

Favion (Maple's right hand man) raises a question.

"What will we do if we're surrounded?"

I answer him.

"We beat the crap out the guys blocking our way and run like hell."

"How about if we get ambushed?"

"We'll use the same tactics."

"So in other words a hit and run?"

"Yup."

"What will we do with our pursuers then?"

"Ignore them."

"What if they catch up to us?"

"Then beat the crap out of them!"

"I don't think that's wise."

What the hell is with this guy?

Does he have a grudge against me or something?

"I think Linel's plan is awesome! It's simple and easy to understand."

Sophie said cheerfully.

Thanks for the save.

"If you ask me, I think it's a reckless plan. We should plan carefully and not running in blindly."

And Favion just have to say what's on his mind.

"We're not running in blindly! Besides, we have Kana here who can pinpoint the exact location on where the principal's office is."

I refute him and everyone turn their gaze towards Kana who is idly fidgeting with her cell phone.

"I can't see your point."

Favion points out.

Well, I can see why he thinks that way but Kana can do a lot of unimaginable things as long as it's related to technology.

That's why I asked her to join our team in the first place.

Strangely she agreed without questions asked.

So I ignore Favion's remark and ask Kana a question.

"So Kana, have you found out where the principals office is yet?"

"It's on the top floor."

She answers without looking at me.

"Okay..."

So she already found out where the principal's office is huh...

If so, what is she doing?

I decided to ask about it.

"So what are you doing right now?"

She stops fidgeting her cell phone, looks at me and fix her glasses in place while answering me.

"It's a surprise."

After that, she continues to fidget with her cell phone.

Knowing Kana, she's probably doing something crazy so I'll just leave her be.

"So anyway, there you have it. Where not running in blindly."

"That doesn't change the fact that your plan is still reckless."

This guy...

"Now now! I think his plan is great. Besides, it's faster that way. So relax! You're too serious for your age. Girls don't like serious boys you know!"

Feini the only upperclassman in our group said like a big sister who's scolding her little brother.

"For an upperclassman, you sure are irresponsible."

"Why you!"

Feini squeezes Favion's head with her fist out of anger like a big sister trying to punish her little brother for reading her diary.

Brea did that to me a lot of times before so just watching her do that brings back the horrible memories.

I doubt Favion would feel a thing though because of the barrier.

So to end this "debate" and not waste any more time, I ask the last person who haven't voice out her opinion.

"Hey Ace, what do you think of my plan?"

Ace thinks for a sec and answer my question.

"Let's see... Just like Favion said it's reckless."

"I see..."

Maybe I should think of a better plan after all.

"But it's more interesting that way."

I couldn't help but to react.

"Huh?"

"Now then, let's execute the plan shall we?"

Is she messing with me?

Anyway, because of Ace, Favion gives up opposing the plan.

Now then, time to execute the plan.

"Now, on the count of three, we will run in there as fast as we can till we reach the principals office. No matter what happens, we should stick together.

I said while pointing at the entrance leading to the insides of the academy.

Everyone (except Kana) nods in responds.

I start the count down.

"One.."

...

"Two..."

...

"Three!"

We all run towards the entrance.
