90 Trail Blazing

Time: 1 hour after Mackensen Took over command off the Geneva HQ

Location: HMS Dreadnought's Bridge

POV: Kyle's

The HMS Dreadnought cuts through the clouds as it is moving at maximum speed towards Switzerland, after the bombardment the communications were being jammed only after leaving the British Isles can we restart connections with Motherbase.

The CC was silent, no words were spoken ever since the Bombardments began and ended.

''This is the New Captain speaking, in 15 minutes we shall restore communications with Motherbase, as you all know we are currently at war with the Union, the situation is unknown. I want all men to prepare for a hard fight through France, we shall trailblaze right through it!'' The captain said slowly but firmly.

The Zeppelin which was in a festive mood again after finishing the Manchester Bombardment quickly returned to its solemn mood again. I had my hands under my chin as I complentated; 'Something is off, we have bombed Manchester to smithereens, yet no airforce has been sent to intercept us, yet they should be very close, why hasn't the radar picked anything up? This is very peculiar.'

I stood up from my seat and started to walk towards the Radar room to check if all instruments were working correctly. It took me 5 minutes to arrive at the room as it was located deep inside the Zeppelin, they mostly communicate directly through a cable and phone to the bridge, making it safe and secure.

All my hairs stand up straight as the feeling of danger overwhelms me, I unholstered my Pistol and unsheathed the Katana. I saw a flash in the corner of my eye, I reacted quickly jumping backwards.

The position I was standing last had an axe embedded into it. After which a voice came from all around me ''Well Well Well. It seems the Wanderer knows some skills.''

A playful smile appeared on my lips as I heard the voice, I started to calculate my chance 'Sex, Unknown. Strength, Unknown. Weaponry, Axes, Unknown. Location, Unknown. Chance of Survival, 45%. I wonder how they got onboard. No crew on this ship has low Loyalty levels, interesting. Very interesting!'

I listened carefully to any sounds, but to no avail. The enemy assassin was skilled enough to mask them over the engine noises. ''Gotcha!'' A voice shouted less than 1 metre away. I immediately thrust my Tanto in the Direction of the voice.

''Now-now-now, that is not nice, wanderer.'' The voice said as it grabbed my Tanto between his/her fingers.

My thoughts went into overdrive as I just realised I am fighting a formidable opponent. I jump to the right rolling over the ground and just in the nick of time as a throwing knife just passed me by a hair's length. 'Where are my Gold Skulls when you need them!' I cursed as I jumped again to the sides. I grab my Pistol and aimed it in the general direction of where the knives are coming from and fire.

''Tsk, using guns are we now.'' The voice said jokingly.

''BANG!'' A large calibre gun fired hurdling a shell towards me I couldn't doge, my only option is to reduce the damage as much as possible. The shell punctured my back at the location of my left lung, the stopping power of the bullet was at minimum a 12.7mm shell. It crushed my bones as it passed through my body, large amounts of pain assaults my brain.

''It seems your wanderer's gear can only stop certain bullets and shells below a certain calibre. Luckily I brought my anti-tank rifle.'' The voice stated coldly.

It was then that I noticed another few bullets lodged into my gear at the back. But couldn't penetrate due to the High-grade gear. Breathing became hard and my body was shaking badly due to the loss of internal structure due to many bones being broken. With a lot of effort did I squeeze one sentence out of my throat,

''Who and What are you?''

With that sentence I fainted due to the loss of blood, 'It seems my end has come.' I lamented to myself.
