3 Rescuing the Director

In the middle of a destroyed city that is still suffering from the fires, four figures are walking through the wreckage.

The first is a young woman with pale hair and violet eyes, who was wearing what looks like a black and purple swimsuit with bits and pieces of armour designed for combat while holding with one arm a shield larger than her whole body.

The second figure is a young man wearing a white uniform that had a belt going across his chest, with black pants, black dress shoes, and a red mark on his right hand. His hair was a messy black while his eyes were a bright teal blue that showed his determination to get through this ordeal.

The third figure is another young woman who was wearing a similar white uniform top with a belt strap above and below her breast, a black miniskirt with black stockings, and white dress boots with a bit of a high heel. Her hair was red and straight besides a cowlick on one side of her hair and an orange scrunchy on the other side while her eyes were a dark gold. On her hand was the same red mark that was on the young man but with a different design.

The final figure in the group is a mysterious white animal that looks like a fox with red beady eyes and a cute white cape tied together by red string.

The pale headed girl announces, "Senpais, We'll be at the point the Doctor gave us soon."

The red haired girl who looks like she is getting fed up spoke "Finally, it feels like we've been walking forever now!"

The black haired guy focused on the girl while keeping a hand on his head to prevent a migraine, "Gudako Fujimaru, come on it hasn't even been that long yet! We still got a little way to go and the less we complain the better off we will be."

Gudako looks like she is about to spit fire as she answers, "Mister Ritsuka Fujimaru you better not be telling me to calm down because if you do I will make your life hell! Back me up a little here, Mash, Fou!"

The white creature hides behind the pale girl and squeak, "Fou…"

Mash tries to calm her down by saying, "Come on senpais, please don't make a scene when there could still be skeletons around looking for us."

After the two masters seem to remember that they are still in danger Mash continues, "Still… the flames go as far as you can see. This is completely different than the Fuyuki in our records."

Mash: "Our records have it as an average city, and this kind of disaster wasn't supposed to happen in 2004…"

Mash: "The mana concentration here is also strange. It's as if this world was from the era of the gods…"

Suddenly a scream interrupts Mash from finishing what she was going to say.

?, "Kya-!"

Ritsuka jumped and announced sharply, "That screaming just now…!?"

Gudako turned in the direction of the scream which is in past the hill in front of them and says in a low whisper, "I have a bad feeling about this."

Mash: "That sounded like director Olga Marie. Let's hurry, Senpais!"

Fou adds on excitedly, "Fooouu fou fouuu!"

The four of them run over the hill to try to rescue their director from whatever threat she is facing.

After getting past the hill the group sees Olga on the ground injured and her dress covered in dirt and grime with cuts ranging all over her.

As the group gets closer they see three skeletons spaced out slowly making their way to the director.

Olga exclaims while trying to distance herself from the monsters, "Wha-what are these things!? Why am I the only one that must suffer like this!?"

Olga starts freaking out, "No, please come save me Leff! You're always the one saving me, aren't you!?"

Mash seeing the state the director was in, exclaims "Chief Olga Marie…!?"

Olga turns around and sees the group of four running towards her, "Y-you guys!? Ahh jeez, I have no idea what's happening anymore-!"

As the group runs towards Olga, Mash speaks "Masters what are your orders?"

both Gudako and Ritsuka look towards the other then they answer at the same time, "Smash the skeletons and return to help us with the Chief!"

---Mash POV---

Rushing past Chief Olga, I make my way towards the pack of skeletons. As I run I start to wonder what changes have happened to me ever since I awakened his power…

The first skeleton only has one arm and no armour while its sword has a chunk taken out of it near the tip. I idly wonder how such a beat-up skeleton is still standing.

"Beginning combat maneuvers"

I sprint towards the skeleton and bash it into pieces.

I hear one of my Masters yell out to me, "Look out two more of them are incoming from the east"

I turn to face the new opponents. I sprint towards them, then, I jump into the air and bring my shield down on one of the skeletons expecting it to turn out like the first skeleton, but I guess it is made from sturdier bones. As the skeleton is reeling from the first attack I bring my shield back up like an upper cut and knock its head off which makes it crumble.

As I celebrate victory in my head I hear my Masters shout, "Look out!"

I suddenly feel danger coming towards me, so I bring my shield around to block the incoming strike, however the enemy's speed is superior, it's blow hits my arm.

I then bring up my shield again to bash this skeleton. I charge the Od that I'm receiving from Chaldea via my Masters and channel it to my legs and arms. The Od travels to my body allowing me to smash it into smithereens. I bring my shield down and survey the area to make sure the battle is finished then I turn towards my Masters

"The battle is over. We somehow did it"
