The Korean
Present Day
Hana was about to teleport back to her squad's compound when she got the intel from Neema's mafia about the attack on one of her groups. Hana was not supposed to return to her squad until later today but decided to head back earlier and help sort out the situation.
Just as she was about to gather her things to leave, a capo screamed through her communicator.
"Donna! There's an incident at the capitol!" The Flair spoke only with fear.
Hana didn't spare a second thought as she grabbed her armour. It was not heard of for a Flair to be easily terrified and that is why Hana took the situation at hand very seriously.
After the war some countries were lucky enough to still have potential living space for civilians. Most of the world scattered and moved to these countries and eventually over time, new cities were created. No specific name for the cities were given and were only referred to the country of origin it was situated in. Of course, because of this not all civilians speak the same languages. It is not an issue since most of them that reside in these areas use English as their main language for communication. Each donna that represents a country also manage and have control over the cities in their countries. The two governments only having the basic law influencing over the people.
The donna's make the final decisions for the people that reside in their territory, the governments had little control over them and mainly focused on the planet as a whole instead. It's a faulty and very manipulative system. Many of the people still choose to live on their own accord. The laws for the camps scattered throughout the broken sphere are still the same, meaning that the whole planet must follow the laws given by the governments.
The groups keeping watch over the camps depended on the country they reside on. The war broke most of the world and left only small islands and pieces of land available outside of the countries, apart from the crevices and cracks also used. Meaning almost everyone lived under a certain mafia's rule. No one was restricted to stay at one country or area and was free to travel since the whole planet fell under the same two governments. It was up to the Flairs and Mars themselves to decide how they want to live. Each mafia was very much aware of humans moving in and out of their boarders since their eyes and ears were everywhere.
"Send me your location. I am on my way!" Hana said to the soldier through her communicator. Hana had teleportation as part of her gift and never used the teleport technology like most Flairs do.
Communicators, or Coms, are strapped on the offhand of the wearer. The small screen was used for navigation but the Coms technology itself is the most advanced piece invented. The Coms resemble that of a watch but the 'straps' are embedded in the wrist itself. The screen is only visible under the first few layers of the skin when it is being used. The straps resemble that of micro sized wires that connect to the nervous system and muscle of the wearer. Giving the Coms access to the side of the wearer it is located on. When in use of the Coms, the body of the wearer are merged with technology. Because of this locations and coordinates can be given by using one of the wearers eyes, which eye once again depends on the side the Coms have access to.
Making use of the sight will enable the wearer to see the longitude and latitude lines as well as their current coordinates. Night vision can be used as well as a thermal detector. Touch will enable the wearer to feel the atmosphere levels. Thus, being able to detect levels such as radiation, poison, humidity, rain and snow. Smell will enable the wearer to detect scents of animals, humans and vegetation. It can also be used to differentiate between different elements such as safe drinking water and any other resembling liquids. Sound is used for echolocation, translators and radar detection.
Once Hana received the location, a crimson coloured circle appeared around her feet and quickly engulfed her entire body, taking her to the given destination. Upon her arrival the Flair who called her ran towards her donna in a rush.
"A whole pack of Orikari's have invaded two camps. They were only a few kilometres from one another and we assume that the first camp they attacked weren't enough food for all of them." The soldier spoke quickly. Her stand is tense and her armour has blood on it. An indication of the fighting that occurred.
The Orikari is a dangerous predator that came to exist ever since the war. Once regular timber or arctic wolves, these beasts' shoulders stand at least 1,5 metres high. Their DNA altered to have a merging with what was once known as reptiles. Their elongated canines growing past their chin and their rough scale like spikes protruding from their spines. Their skin tough to impale, making it too difficult and slow to aim for their hearts. Their agility, speed and camouflage making them the perfect hunters. Their only known weakness is their head. The only part of their strong bodies to be unprotected. They are aware of this flaw and will try to prevent anyone from penetrating it. The attacker should be smart about how they move, once a Orikari outsmarts you, you are as good as dead. These predators do not usually try to hunt for Flairs or Mars since they are intelligent creatures very much aware of the gifts Flairs can possess. Their usual targets are creatures found in the woods for which there are no shortage of. This pack must've been very desperate to attack not just one but two camps.
Both the camps consisted of mixed groups from both Mars and Flairs alike. What was considered to be quite peculiar about this situation was the fact that none of the bodies were touched after they were killed. They were left alone and the creatures seemed to have moved on to the next camp. They were killing, not hunting. The squad watching over the first camp managed to kill just over half of the pack and was able to warn the other squad at the second camp as soon as they saw the creatures run towards their direction. Unfortunately, not even the squad could outsmart all of the creatures and eventually the pack killed off all six members as well as everyone from the first camp.
The second camp only had a 2-minute head start for preparation before the two Alpha's of the pack jumped at the squad, aiming to kill them off first. Only about ten Orikari's were left from the pack and the squad tried holding them off until they could notify Hana. The second camp was two hundred metres from the capitol and if one wolf were to get through then it would be much harder to kill the creature off without harming other bystanders. This Orikari pack had to be dealt with before matters get out of control.
Most of the camp fought with the squad to defend one another while a few stayed with the children to protect them. Seven Flairs and nine Mars died at the second camp. Four of the squad members were amongst them. Only one Orikari creature were still alive and it was one of the Alpha's. The Alpha Orikari's shoulders stood at 1,7 metres tall, their size an indication of their status in their packs. The captured creature struggled to escape its bounds that kept it at bay. The bounds used were of one of the squad members gifts. Her gift is creating a material strong enough to withstand any weight as well as create a shield if necessary. Her ember restraints tightening more as the creature tries to free itself.
"Are you injured soldier?" Hana asked the soldier that summoned her. The donna was concerned for everyone. These creatures are ruthless killers and the attacks would not have been swift.
The soldier shook her head and indicated that the blood on her armour was indeed not hers. Nodding her head, Hana walked towards the imprisoned creature before her. The donna crouched down and put her face a few centimetres from the Alpha's face.
Hana's eyes suddenly went crimson red as she stared into the soul of the Orikari before her. The creature suddenly froze underneath the Flair's gaze and its eyes resembled that of the Flair before it. Hana only saw fear and sorrow beneath the eyes before her, a sadness for its lost lover. But there was no rage or anger from the attack that only ended a few minutes ago. Hana furrowed her brows at this realisation. The creature was not hungry, it was not angry and it was not ruthless. It was afraid and it was hurt. Standing back on her feet, Hana turned and walked towards the soldier that she communicated with. Her eyes back to its original state as she approached the Flair before her.
Just as Hana was about open her mouth to speak, she heard a sudden gasp and welp of pain. The creature started struggling to free itself once Hana left her gaze and in its fight for freedom it managed to graze one of its paws against the Flair in charge of the bounds to keep it still. The soldier was standing too close to the creature and its nails dug into her calf causing her to momentarily lose control over her energy. The creature jumped up from its restraints, seizing the opportunity and aimed for the soldier responsible for her capturing. Hana heard the familiar snap of the Flair's spine as the Orikari Alpha separated the soldier's upper half of her body from the rest of it, killing her instantly. The poor girl never even stood a chance.
A few screams were heard and the soldier's eyes went wide with fear for the creature sprinting towards them. The rest of the camp were too injured and tried to withstand another fight and instead ran off to safety. Hana immediately spun on her heels and with her movement her crimson eyes appeared again. The colour of Hana's energy mimicked that of blood, an ironic colour considering she does not kill by spilling the blood of her opponent. She kills their souls, the deepest part of every host.
Cracks of crimson colour appeared under the donna's eyes and the creature in front of her stopped merely a few metres away. The Alpha female stood proud before she suddenly howled in pain and collapsed to the ground beneath her. The blood drained from its body, leaving only skin and bones where it once stood. With her enhanced hearing, Hana heard the soft thundering of the creatures' heart as it slowly came to a halt. A single tear tore itself from Hana's eyes as she stared at the Orikari before her. She knew why the creature specifically ran towards her. These creatures were too smart for their own good, because the Alpha knew that Hana would easily kill it. It knew that it never stood a chance, but the creature would rather die a painful and gruesome death if it meant seeing her family again.
Hana turned towards the bodies and helped her fellow soldier by giving everyone the farewell they deserve before she teleported back to her office. She collected her few belongings and teleported to her compound in Britain. She did not utter a single word ever since the creature died. The only thing playing in her head on repeat was the sorrowful howl of the creature, not because it was being killed. No, the creature howled in pain for her family and Hana felt every part of it.
Once Hana connects with another's soul, she would feel and hear everything from her victims. When Hana kills them, it feels as if her own soul is being ripped away from her. Hana despises killing. Especially since she stared at herself through her sisters eyes as she too succumbed to Hana's wrath.
