Mission brief
The bright colors of people moving on the green lawns in front of the Academy mingled in confusion. The attendees who escaped the bomb were too frightened to stop running. Their hurried minds couldn't realize the large jets hovering outside the campus grounds.
The soldiers in battle suits rushed through the entrance of the building. They passed the blood-rushed faces of zombies whose eyes were set on the light from the exit.
The soldiers' helmets made them move through the thick smoke, but they had to stop. Ahead of them were steaming bodies on the fire-scarred grounds. Some of them moved from gasping their last breath and it was heart striking.
Sensei got alerted when Tess's telecom no longer sensed her pulse. Of course, she had failed. Being a hero wasn't as easy as it seemed, worse when you're alone. He hoped she learned that and valued her team effort from then on.
