"This is a mess..."

"Don't say."

"Fuck another one, how many is it now?"

"Three in total, the other two teams were dispatched, but with how things going, it would be just another look like this one."

"How they couldn't hold even for one night? These lands were besieged by Grimms for centuries, for Grimm sakes!"

Asked one of the Sentinel's with HL shield and HL sword as he looked around ghost city that was freshly painted in fresh red color.

"Don't know, but they gave them hella fight, look how much blood there is, even with an entire population of this settlement they couldn't fill even half of what there is, so sole reason for so much blood is-"

"Is because they fought to the last and took a lot of fuckers with them to the end..."

"Yea... look at the gates, these fuckers must have some serious punch, even elder deathstalker wouldn't put such dent into the hardened iron gates."

"It is just me, or are they coming with new shit every attack?"

"It isn't you, there is a rumor that all Captains were debriefed that these things have enormous adaptability."

"So in short, one night you kill them with a gun and other night the gun would just scratch them?"

"Yea... In short fucking bullshit!"

...

The Sentinels were quiet after their debate as they continued in their search through the Mistral settlement that was like the other two destroyed what the public thinks is Grimm attack but was in truth, new enemy the Solitas forces were reading for.

Above them, Drones were scanning for any activity, and the new Manta drone ships, or shortly MDS were now levitating around just in case of ground forces needing support.

In the middle of the settlement by the big fountain, two Captains looked around in case of an enemy, yet the more they saw, the more they became somber.

"What do you think, would there stay there, Eredith?"

"...no, you read it debriefing, the flesh monsters always just gather more resources and go to hiding before they are hit by Salems Grimm..."

"True, no need to stay and risk our forces, or the fact that the tunnels they came in now are being swarmed by the Grimms..."

"Still, by ready in case some of them stayed behind to try probe our strength..."

Eredith said as he looked around with his war hammer, this was the second time he saw the massacre of the flesh monsters done on the surface, his first assignment and first meeting them face to face were when he was deployed to one of SDC mine towns, the said town called for help as they were assaulted by the new enemy made of flesh, but thanks to the automatic defenses and high amount of battle drones they were able to hold until reinforcements came.

That day Eredith's entire white armor and cloak were red from the blood, he didn't know how long he was fighting, just that he killed more than thousands of these quick and vicious fuckers...

The same day happened new thing, as for the first time in his life, he was glad for Grimm's existence, as it wasn't him, his squad, or the town defenses, but the horde of Grimm that came to help them and rip the flesh fuckers to ribs and swarm the tunnel from where they came...

And now these flesh fuckers knew the Solitas Kingdom settlements and towns were so highly protected they seemed to tunnel their way through entire continents to get to more unprotected ease targets...

"Eredith! I have movement!"

"On the way."

Eredith said to his fellow Captain, who used a laser rifle and HL bastard sword.

------------------------

"This is a catastrophe! Another village went silent in the month!"

"We must do something or we will lose control of the situation!"

"What control?! People are already whispering! If we don't placate them, we risk riots!"

"What about you?! Don't you have anything to offer, headmistress?!"

...

...

Annie Rebert, previously named Annette Hebert, just sighed, this was becoming more and more common from the moment she took the position of Haven headmistress...

She thought she could make a difference, but...

With the mess the previous headmaster made, the lack of huntsmen, and the Council that never stopped meddling in her affairs, her actions were more than limited...

She still cursed the thing that somehow transported her to this world and took her from her husband and daughter who probably thought she died in a car crash, just to by de-aged and put on streets from where she became huntresses and earned her prestige among her peers, well after all the existential crisis she gone through, with her line of thought about this world being just some hallucination or part of her new powers as cape/parahuman which she now knew wasn't...

"Hah... Can you tell me how I could send huntsmen teams to these towns IF you didn't previously order me to PROTECT the VITAL positions?!"

Annie/Annette almost screamed at the Council members.

"IF I remember rightly, IT was YOU who ordered me to prioritize protecting villages and settlements that are by pure chance in YOURS pocked, isn't it?"

"B-be careful what you are saying, headmistress!"

Following with screams and denials of corrupted politicians, at least one thing stayed the same for Annie, and that was no matter what world, the politicians were the same...

"Now! IF you excuse me, I have work to do, and that means more than your, so after you are done with your bickering, send me a memo..."

Annie said as she walked of the Council chambers.

"And if YOU try to put the blame on ME, then you can be sure that these places you want so much protected could very much lose their protectors!"

Annie said as she stormed off the room...

/Bzzzz Bzzzz/

Annie took a scroll to see who called her and sighed in relief...

"Yes, your majesty?"

...

"Yes... It is as you predicted... Yes, there isn't any other way..."

...

"Yes... I will take care of it..."

Annie ended the call as she took a deep breath and sighed, she never thought she would swear loyalty to a King, a King in these times, truly not something she would except she would do...

"At least he is better than E88 or any of the fucks from home are..."

Annie said and sadly smiled.

"Stop it, Annette, what would your daughter said if she heard you cursing so much... Ah, Taylor, Danny, how much I miss you..."

Annie said to herself with tears as she remembered her husband and daughter, who must think she is dead...
